The party planner had done a great job in transforming the sub shop into an elegant reception hall. It was decorated in a silver and white theme. Family and close friends filled the room waiting for the happy couple.

Mitchie’s mouth dropped open as she saw a familiar couple walk into the sub shop. She rushed over and engulfed the middle aged woman in a tight hug. “Mom, dad, I didn’t expect to see you here,” exclaimed Mitchie excitedly as she turned to hug her father.

“We’ve remained friends with Jerry and Teresa. We’re actually more surprised to see you here. I didn’t think you and the Russos were on speaking terms,” said Connie as she held her daughter’s hand with worried eyes.

Mitchie’s dad seemed uncomfortable with the situation. “Where’s my granddaughter?” he questioned with a grin not wanting to bring up the past.

Mitchie grinned at her parents. “She’s with her mommy,” responded Mitchie happily just as Alex turned away from the couple that she had been talking to while firmly holding Sarah’s hand. Mitchie held a hand out and Alex walked over linking her free hand with Mitchie’s with a bright smile. “Alex and I are back together. We were actually planning to visit you guys tomorrow to tell you in person. We ran into each other in LA and moved in together a little more than a month ago,” explained Mitchie happily.

“O thank God,” Connie cried out with tears in her eyes and hugged both girls. “You have no idea how happy that makes me. You two belong together. Alex I could not have picked anyone better for Mitchie. You know that I love you as if you were my own daughter,” said Connie as she wiped her eyes.

Steve took Sarah in his arms and tickled her. He had a soft spot for his granddaughter. She looked exactly like Mitchie at that age, so it was like going back in time. “Congratulations girls,” said Steve with a proud smile.

Alex felt her phone vibrate and smiled as she looked at the screen. “Okay, get ready everyone!” she ordered cheerfully.

“Surprise!” yelled everyone as the Russos walked into the sub shop.

Teresa turned around and buried her face in Jerry’s chest, while Jerry grinned from ear to ear.

Max hugged his parents as Alex took Sarah back and tugged on Mitchie’s hand to approach her parents. They stood to the side as the Russo Finkles congratulated Teresa and Jerry.

“Alex! Mija!” cried Teresa happily as she spotted her daughter. “Look Jerry, Alex came.”

Alex hugged her parents with a bright smile. “Of course I came and I brought my family with me. You guys already know Mitchie, but this little princess is our daughter Sarah,” said Alex proudly.

Teresa took Sarah from Alex. “Look Jerry she’s adorable. She looks just like Mitchie, but she has Alex’s mischievous smile. Can you say “abuela”?” questioned Teresa as she kissed Sarah’s cheek.

Jerry tugged softly on one of Sarah’s pigtails. “You love pudding just like Grandpa, right sport?” asked Jerry with a grin.

Sarah nodded enthusiastically. “Uh huh, chocowet,” she said happily causing Jerry to grin proudly.

Mitchie became teary eyed as she watched the Russos instantly accept Sarah. She walked forward and hugged them as she whispered congratulations and thank you. With a smile she took her place next to Alex again.

“Wait, I never saw you pregnant and you were here for Justin’s wedding and didn’t have a daughter. How did you get a toddler as a daughter? Did you use magic?” questioned a confused Max.

Everyone laughed. Some because they thought Max was joking, the wizards and former wizards because they were uncomfortable. Debbie smacked him upside the head and shook her head.

Alex took Sarah and approached Max. “Sugar plum, this is your brilliant Uncle Max,” said Alex with a sarcastic smile.

“Hi Uncle Max,” said Sarah as she held her arms out to the youngest Russo.

Max grinned and took Sarah. “I don’t care how you got her Alex. She’s so cute,” said Max as he walked off with his niece causing everyone to laugh again.

The party went on with no major disasters which as we all know is quite an accomplishment for the Russos. Finally the time for opening presents arrived.

Alex went upstairs to her old bedroom and rushed back downstairs upon making a decision. She approached her parents who both smiled questioningly at her. “Mom, dad, I didn’t buy you guys anything, but I do have a gift for you guys,” said Alex with a bright smile. “You have given me and my brothers the example of what a loving home should be. You showed us that with respect, understanding and a sense of humor, love can overcome anything. Today I want to ask the person that I love to spend the rest of her life with me and I know that if I follow your example, we will get through anything,” with that said she turned towards Mitchie to reveal a gorgeous diamond ring with a platinum band. “Mitchie Torres, will you make me happy for the rest of my life? Will you be my wife?” questioned Alex.

Mitchie walked towards Alex and wrapped her arms around her neck crashing their lips together in a passionate kiss before pulling back with a grin. “O in case you weren’t sure, that was a yes!” squealed Mitchie with her trademark grin.

Alex laughed and placed the ring on Mitchie’s finger as everyone clapped. Alex and Mitchie were hugged by every single person in the room, even some friends of Alex’s parents that the girls didn’t know.

Justin hugged Mitchie tightly. “Welcome to the family. Sorry about before. I was out of line,” he apologized.

“You were just being the protective older brother that I know and love. Don’t worry about it. Just know that I love Lexy more with each breath that I take and I will never hurt her again,” said Mitchie softly. “Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a present for your parents and my fiancé,” said Mitchie as she walked over to the band. After a brief conversation she took the guitar and approached the mike. “I’d like to dedicate this song to the guests of honor, my future in laws, Jerry and Teresa Russo. I would like to thank you guys for bringing such a beautiful and caring human being into this world. I wrote this thinking about you Lexy,” said Mitchie before closing her eyes and playing the beginning rifts.

Before I fall too fast
Kiss me quick
But make it last
So I can see how badly this will hurt me
When you say goodbye

Keep it sweet
Keep it slow
Let the future pass
And don’t let go
But tonight I could fall too soon under Waverly’s moonlight

Mitchie locked eyes with Alex as she sang the last line. She wanted her to see the emotion in her eyes as she sang straight from the heart.

But you’re so hypnotizing
You got me laughing while I sing
You got me smiling in my sleep
And I can see this unraveling
And your love is where I’m falling
So please don’t catch me

And if this is love
Please don’t break me
I’m giving up
So just catch me

“I love you Lexy,” whispered Mitchie upon finishing the song. She knew that she was in no danger when she gave Alex the key to her heart. Alex had shown her that love overcomes everything. All of the Russos with the exception of Max had given up magic because they understood that there was nothing in the world more powerful than love.
