Photograph [Maya Hart]

epilogue

"Hey, do you want a picture taken of all of you together?" Topanaga asked. "I can take it?"

"Can you?" Harley asked.

Topanga smiled and took the camera from Harley sat down next to Maya and put his arm around her again and Topaganga took the picture of them.

After the photo being taken and finishing lunch, Harley took pictures of everyone, talking and laughing. He smiled as he looked through the pictures he had taken.

While he wasn't paying attention, Maya had taken a picture of him.

Harley noticed the flash on the corner of his eye.

"What are you doing, stalker?" Harley asked.

"You noticed?" she said.

"Yeah, I did," Harley smiled. 

"How?"

"Your flash went off," Harley pointed.

"Stupid flashlight," she said, bitterly.

Harley smiled and pulled Maya closer to her.

"Let me see the picture," Harley requested.

Maya showed the picture that she had taken.

"You like it, Dinosaur Boy?" Maya asked. "Is it up to your standards?"

"Surprisingly, yes," Harley nodded.

Maya smiled and kissed him on the cheek.

Harley's face turned red.

"Ha! Your face is brighter than a tomato!" she teased.

"Stop!" Harley said, pushing her gently.

"You love me," she teased him even more.

Harley rolled his eyes and shook his head.

"Alright, I'm going to talk to my parents," Harley said.

"Harley, wait, no," Maya laughed as Harley walked away to Elizabeth and James.

"Having fun, kiddo?" Elizabeth said, putting her arm around her eldest son.

"Yeah," he smiled.

"Hey, you're smiling," she said.

"I've been smiling before," he pointed out.

"Not like that," Elizabeth said. "I haven't seen that smile since you were ten."

"Yeah, well... I guess I'm happier now."

"You are?" she smiled.

"Well, I made great friends," Harley pointed out, "I have you and Peter. There's James."

"You like James?"

"Yeah, he's great," Harley smiled. "Why wouldn't I? He's awesome!"

"Good," Elizabeth said, smiling. "I'm glad that you like him."

"Yeah, well, he's the closest thing I have to a dad since Dad," Harley said.

Elizabeth smiled even more. 

"Really?"

Harley nodded. 

"Well, he feels the same about you and Peter."

"He does?"

Elizabeth nodded. "He does. And I can't blame him. You and Peter are great boys."

"Thanks, Mom," Harley said. "You did great with us, Mom."

"I'm trying my best with you two," Elizabeth said.

"And it's a great job," Harley smiled.

Elizabeth smiled and kissed Harley on the cheek.

He groaned, but didn't whine.

Elizabeth reached over to the table and grabbed Harley's camera. She turned it on and turned it around for the lenses to face them.

"Come on, one more picture," Elizabeth said.

"Okay," Harley said.

Just as Elizabeth pressed down the button, Peter and James popped up from behind them and Harley couldn't help but laugh.
