Re: Forgiveness (Cassidy/Mina) Part IV
(Several years later)
Cassidy Summers is not a perfect man, but each day he does his best to be worthy of Mina's love and forgiveness. They were married seven years ago and their son, Jacob Kurt Alexander Summers came the following summer.
The dark-haired, blue-skinned boy had ten fingers and ten toes, but he also had yellow eyes and mischievous streak ten miles wide. Mina and Cassidy still debate on where he got it from, though it doesn't matter: both sides of Jake's family spoil him rotten, including his "Uncle" James.
Today, the little family stands at the grave of Little Jake's namesake, looking down at the person who'd reached across the years to bring them together.
"I promised him I'd take care of you the day I came back to Xavier's." Cassidy tells his wife, kissing her on the cheek.
"Funny. I promised him I'd wait one more month and go find you if you didn't come back. Then I'd take care of you for the rest of your life." Mina tells him, holding Little Jake in her arms.
"To err is human, to forgive divine." Cassiday says, repeating the old maxim.
He knew he was human, finally, but standing next to his wife and son was the closest to heaven he'd ever felt.
