Sabrina never thought this day would ever come. Probably because twenty years ago she wasn't sure she'd make it to thirteen, much less thirty-two. But, here she was, in labor. Sabrina Grimm-Goodfellow was about to meet her first-born daughter. It was an odd feeling.


Sabrina was excited to start her own family,but nervous about how tough the world will be on her baby. She wasn't even sure she wanted to have kids until a year ago when all the danger subsided and she and Puck could settle down.


Of course, the adventurous couple wouldn't be settled down forever, just long enough to raise a family and see their kids go off to college. Then, they would travel around the world and have even more adventures. Being married to a king had its advantages,as does being an Everafter.


As images of her future popped u again and again, Sabrina was gripping Puck's hand and cussing loudly. Ten agonizing minutes later, Alison Titania Grimm-Goodfellow was born, then being instantly surrounded by friends and family. When Sabrina saw her daughter for the first time, her nerves and anxiety died down, and all she could think about was how she and Puck had created a new little life. She just knew they were going to be an amazing family.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


Alison had chosen to live her mortal life, and die at a normal age. As the years went on, she began to age more than her parents, uncles, aunts, grandparents, and family friends. Sabrina and Puck had begged her to stay young, but Alison's husband was mortal. Ali couldn't imagine a world without him. It killed Puck and Sabrina to see their baby grow older than them. Sometimes, Ali would wonder what life would be like, staying young forever with her family. But then she'd look at Parker in the hospital bed beside hers, and her doubts would slip away.


She planned on dying at the same time as Parker so they'd never be without each other. She knew today would be her last day with her family and friends, so she made sure that they would all be at the hospital in her and Parker's last moments. Of course, Parker was in a sleep that he wouldn't wake up from already, and she knew it wouldn't be long now.


Soon, she was surrounded by all of her friends and family, including her younger sister who still appeared young, and even Parker and Ali's children and grandchildren. Anyone who was just passing by the room would have thought that Puck and Sabrina were the elderly couple's grandchildren, not Ali's parents. No one ever corrected them, because no one would have believed them.


Alison was filled with happiness being surrounded by all her loved ones,and she was at peace without regrets. She took Parker's hand and smiled up at her crying family.


"We love you all," Ali said for both her and Parker, who had become very close with the family. "This is not the end for us. Parker and I will finally meet Granny Relda and Grandpa Basil. As you already know, our journals our with the others. If Parker was awake, he would tell you how grateful he was to be a Grimm. But, he's tired. I'm tired. Our time in this world is up. I have no regrets. I made the right choice for me. Make the right choice for you. It's been a pleasure being a Grimm and a fairy princess. Well, maybe not the second part." Ali grinned weakly. "I'll give the others your love. Also, I hid a million dollars in the..." With her last prank, Alison and Parker left this world joined a new one.


Sabrina cried for her baby, and so did everyone else. Puck was upset, but he understood her reasons for growing old. After all, he grew up a bit for Sabrina. He knew that if Sabrina hadn't become an Everafter, he would still have aged until death with her. That knowledge helped with his grief, but not by much. His baby was lost from this world, and he may never see her ever again. It was not where he was meant to be.


A/N I feel so bad for not posting anything when I said I would, but I was going through some things with my friends, and I still sort of am, but now I have many finals coming up. On 6/16/15 (my friend's bday :)) I will be done with my school year. I probably won't post anything until then, but I promise to post more frequently. Of course, now I have a possible broken finger, so it is difficult to type, but I'll manage. Until next Tuesday!
