"I'm twenty-five." He answered, although age clearly didn't matter much to her. He rolled his eyes, "Coming with me?" He asked, holding out a hand.

Meri nodded, stood up, and took his hand. "Alright." she said quietly, a smile playing on her lips.

Fido held onto her hand and disapparated to his own home back in Ireland.

Llian sat at his favorite spot in the San Gimignano hills, looking down on the small town below. He'd been up there, just thinking things over, for quite some time. In fact, he wasn't even sure how long.

He took a deep breath, wondering just how many he'd actually take. It was an odd feeling, knowing that soon he wouldn't be able to see the view from the hills, or breathe in the fresh air or do the millions of other things he was used to. But, he just...didn't care.

The portkey took me to the hills, and with the most luck in the world, Llian was sitting here. I just run over to him and hug him.

"I am so sorry for what I said at the chapel."

Llian was surprised to see Andy, to say the very least, but hugged her back tightly.

"Andy, really....you have nothing to be sorry for. I interrupted your wedding for Merlin's sake," he said sheepishly. "I should be the one apologizing to you. And I'm so sorry: you and Ryou deserve to be happy," he told her.

"And...I'm sorry for mentioning...the other thing," he said quietly, referring to Andy's brief pregnancy and miscarriage.

"Don't worry about it, he hasn't asked me about it, and I know I would have had to tell him one day... He needs to know that out of three pregnancies, I've only been able to carry this little guy.

And Llian, I kind of expected you to interrupt if you knew about it, because its hard to just shrug away all we've been through. And actually, Ryou pushed me to come find you after the ceremony. Because I didn't know what was at stake if I left.

I knew that I'd have to find you, but if Ryou didn't push me to go do it, I'd have done it without his knowing. He knows what you mean to me, he doesn't like that we have a past, but he knows we're close and I'd never want to give you up for him and visa versa to you.

I was out all night after the wedding looking for you, then when I sat down and read all of your letters, I guessed you'd be here.

Llian, I love you as the best friend I could ever have.... well besides Iriki and your sister... but I love Ryou and he's my husband. I wish we could all just get along, because I don't want to lose either of you."

Llian listened as she talked, nodding occasionally, agreeing with what she had to say.

"Andy, you're one of my best friends too. And yeah, I guess it is hard to forget everything between us, even if you have Ryou and I have..."

He almost said her name, but that would be too much. He didn't have Meredith.

"You know," he said quietly, not meeting her eyes, "I really don't think you'll have to worry about me and Ryou getting along in the future."

"What are you talking about, of course I'll worry about you and him getting along."

Llian gave a hollow laugh. "No...you don't understand: I can't live like this, Andy. I can't...live..."

Saying it aloud for the first time made it seem that much more real. Not living...it was a half-scary, half-comforting thought. Besides, what was death but exploring the afterworld?

I sharply inhale the clean air, and cough because I hurt my throat doing it.

"Llian, don't. Please. There is so much to live for."

"Right...like what?" he asked skeptically. "Like Meredith, who's dead; you, married with children; my sisters, one of whom has turned evil...and Gia? I don't even know where she is. I just...I don't want to do this anymore."

He sighed, looking down at the grass beneath his feet. "Andy, I've seen half the world already, and I can't honestly think of one good reason to stay. I mean, there's so much to learn still, but what's life without love?"

"There is more to love than someone to marry and share your life with. You have sisters and friends that you love, and love you back. You know love from your parents. I never felt love from a parent after my mother was taken away. Even if you don't want to love after mere, there still is love in your life. Believe me on this. I lost Tree when I loved him the most, I went through this, and I will help you through it too."

Llian looked up after a long moment of silence and gave Andy a small smile. "You're right," he said. "I just...need to start over."

He glanced down at the little town below them. What better place to start over than someplace he loved? "Maybe I'll move back to Italy for a little while," he said offhandedly.

"Anything, so long as you promise to not hurt yourself. I'll even bring Alfie by for visits. I just don't want you hurt, I don't want to lose you."

I hug him tight, and let a few tears fall from how much he was scaring me, feeling a wave of pain coming from my stomach.

Llian hugged her back, lightly brushing the tears away. "I'm sorry Andy. Don't worry...I'll be here..."

He noticed a pained expression cross her face. "Are you ok?"

I try and breathe to calm myself down.

"I don't know, I just got this wave of pain in my stomach"

"Your stomach? Is it the baby?" Llian asked, concerned. He was extremely worried since he knew Andy had miscarried twice before that.

"We should get you to a hospital," he said, trying to remember where the nearest one was. It didn't help that they were up on the hills and apparition wouldn't be good for the baby.

"Llian, I'll be fine..."

I breathe a bit more rhythmically, trying to not focus on the second wave.

"How far along are you?" Llian asked, not really believing her.
