Hi girls! I decided to try this challenge, since the pictures were SSSSOOOO talkative!!! You know me-- I couldn't resist!

So here's a little introduction just to put you in appetite!...

Hope you'll like it!

The Apple of My Eye

Everyone was ready for the ‘big day’—the day that would sealed the destiny of two people head over heal in love, forever in front of God.

It was the perfect day for an outside wedding, surrounded by all their love ones. The sky was as clear and blue as it could be on an early autumn day, with every color tints in the trees. A light wind blew an enchanting melody accompanying the birds in the nearby forest. Apple sent their delicious aroma all around the back of the house, tempting guess’ nostrils and stomach.

Sue, Tara and Lucy were the bride’s maids, while Jack, Bobby and Myles were the groom’s best men. Standing all in front of the outdoor improvised alley, they were each lost in thoughts toward the person facing them, thinking of how their lives would be amazingly perfect, if only they could confess their feelings. The feelings that threatened to overwhelm them more each passing day apart of the love of their soul mate. At least, Martin and Gracie had found the courage to speak their love out loud and do the decisive step to make their dreams come true... And today was the beginning of a great adventure for the couple, which should, if God wishes it as well, last until the end of their lives.

*****

I'm sure some of you might be disapointed that it's not one of the team's wedding, but... who knows what can happen in a wedding reception?...

More soon...

Great start, Any!! And you're right, anything can happen at the reception. I just re-watched "The Fugitive" episode today, where Sue has to go to a wedding of one of her classmates? And as Sue told Lucy, "it's a great place to meet single men." Let's just hope OUR girls meet OUR guys, that they've already met!! Looking forward to learning more about Martin and Gracie!

Excellent start Any!!! Can't wait for the wedding reception!

Tere

Any..what a lovely start...can ask better for a wedding day (it reminds me of my own automn wedding ;0)
And now, let the reception begin!!
Josy

Someone asked for the reception?... So here we go!

*****
Martin Walsh is a FBI agent who used to work for the Baltimore office in a counter terrorism unit. A big operation brought him in DC where he met Gracie, a rotor for a DEA team. Both teams had to combine their force to put an end on a strike two months earlier. Martin had joined Jack’s team for the time being and had given precious tidbits about the terrorists they were dealing with and how to deal with them efficiently.

It didn’t take long before the lovebirds confessed their love and started to date. They didn’t have to worry about the no-dating policy, since this was just a temporary assignment for Martin, or at least it was supposed to be when he first came in. Anyway, even after they had busted the terrorist cell and parted team, they were no longer working in the same department, so he asked for a permanent transfer, which was welcome by the team. Martin’s personality fitted perfectly with each of them, bringing some new blood and another perspective on cases.

Suffering of leukemia from an early age, he learned to enjoy life to the fullest and take all the opportunities that God had gave him -- both professionally and personally. He had a joyful and caring personality and was always ready to help others. He said that since God had helped him to win his battle against this terrible disease, it was his turn to pay back and do whatever he could for a better world.

No need to say that he was close to Sue and that it gave her some headaches at times... regarding her relationship with a certain dark-haired agent... But that was all history and a sincere fraternity had grown between the two men.

It didn’t take long for him to notice the chemistry tightening them and he tried, along with Lucy and Tara to play his part of matchmaking, giving Jack some advice about ‘life’s too short to overpass a true love opportunity’. And tonight he was glad his wife had decided to join him in his attempt. Because more than two lives could change tonight if their plan works as they wished it would...

*****

More soon!...

Have a nice evening!

I think I really like Martin and Gracie
Josy

Can't wait till know the newly weds' plan!!!

Tere

Don't you just love original characters who are all over the cause of getting Jack and Sue together? I know I DO!

Hi! It's a cloudy Sunday over here, so I hope to work some more on this story. Lucky you it's a angst-free-full-fuzzy one! But everything comes at his time and it's not fuzzy's yet...

Happy reading!

*****

The ceremony went simply and beautifully, as they had wished. As soon as the Pastor had pronounced the last line—“You can kiss the bride,”—Martin obliged himself and complained to her greatest pleasure. Waves of applause could be heard and cheers were done all through the picnic planned to share with their friends and relatives.

They’d chosen for an autumn wedding not only because they didn’t want to lose any time, but because it was their favourite season. Her family owned an apple plantation and had heartedly offered to use it for the day. Different meals were done with apples or napped with apple sauce, giving the lunch a special and unique ‘cachet’.

Faithful to tradition, they’d organized some funny games to play to entertain the guests, staring, you guessed it, apples! Including the famous ‘fetch the apple in the water barrel with your teeth’ game, letting more than one wet to the bone. Boys couldn’t pass beside an occasion to impress their love ones, could they?

Before the sun was completely down, the couple came to the microphone on the stage and thanked each one to have being a part of their special day, promising to enjoy their honeymoon and letting them enjoy the rest of the afternoon dancing some more in the last rays of sunlight.

“Thank you so much to the team to had being an active part of this day. Gracie and I had planned a special treat for you to show you our gratitude and ... we hope you’ll like it...” He grinned widely in the team’s direction, poking his tongue in his cheek in amusement and anticipation.

More soon...

. . . as are we!! Very nice wedding . . . remind me to tell you about the one I was involved with yesterday!!

Very lovely wedding indeed but I can`t wait for that surprise
Josy

Nothing like the perfect wedding and an enthusiastic bride and groom to want to spread their good fortune. I hope they have better success at matchmaking than Lucy has had.

kav

I'm curious and excited about it!!

Tere

Here's a bit more about the 'surprise... hope you'll like it!

*****

Gracie took Martin's place and started to speak. “We’ll ask you all to go on the dance floor and chose a partner for the next couple of songs. It’s a little medley we’d concocted for you. Each song has a particular meaning for two of you and we think that you can easily find out whose, since you are the best team of the bureau... Hope you’ll like it... and that it’ll open your eyes on what future can hold for you...” She ended mysteriously before she escaped with her husband for their honeymoon. Or so thought the team...

Ready to play the game Bobby went to Tara and asked her to dance, which she happily agreed. Jack looked at Sue and Lucy shyly. He knew who he wanted to dance with, though with his two friends who knew what they had planned... The apprehension he felt wasn’t enough to keep him away from his love, so he slowly walked to Sue and gallantly offered his hand. Blushing slightly, she reached for it and he instantly started to brush his thumb on the back of hers. Myles couldn’t let Lucy to herself, it wouldn’t be worth of an aristocrat like him, so he smiled at her and the duplication she gave him pushed aside all the fears he had regarding the bad feelings she could still had since their broke up long time ago. His wildest dream was coming true—she had over passed his mistake and forgiven him.

When the first notes of the first song could be heard from the band, they realized what the intension of the runaway couple were... And the first concerned couple was invaded by a bright ‘apple’s color’!

*****

More tomorrow!

Can't wait for the next!!

Tere

Really liking this so far, Any!! It's nice to see someone else get in on trying to get Jack and Sue together!!!

Joy

Glad you like it!!! So here's the first song...

*Blue lines are the song lyrics

*****

It was a medley of old songs, mostly from 80’s-90’s. But as promised the hidden meaning was clear to all of them.

Were no strangers to love
You know the rules and so do I
A full commitments what I’m thinking of
You wouldn’t get this from any other guy

Jack lost himself in Sue’s dark pools, which were busy reading the words on the signer’s lips. He thought how much he was praying for a real commitment with her, how much he would be blessed if she could say ‘yes’ if he asked a simple question someday...

When the lyrics had sank in her, shivers ran through her body. Not because of the blowing wind, but because her friends had read her right—she was deeply in love with Jack... and since a long time already. Maybe even since they first met, when she’d stormed in his office.

I just wanna tell you how I’m feeling
Gotta make you understand

If only God could give me the courage to tell her... If only she could love me as much as I love her...

If only mom hadn’t taught me that girl couldn’t make the first move... If only he could love me the way I love him...

Never gonna give you up
Never gonna let you down
Never gonna run around and desert you
Never gonna make you cry
Never gonna say goodbye
Never gonna tell a lie and hurt you

Oh God! How true this is! I saw the hurt in her eyes to often and I know she had more than her share of pain already. I will do anything to protect you, my love, anything to make you feel comfortable in my arms...

What wouldn’t I give to be in your arms when I’m hurting?... The few times I found refuge snuggled close to you, you made me forget all the pain and all the bad things in this world...

We’ve know each other for so long
Your hearts been aching
But you’re too shy to say it
Inside we both know what’s been going on
We know the game and were gonna play it

And if you ask me how I’m feeling
Don’t tell me you’re too blind to see

Sue turned in his arms when the signer had sang those words. Both were now deeply glancing in the other’s soul and heart, looking for some reassurance that the feelings were mutual, that they shared more than the platonic friendship they’d claimed they had.

YES! I’m ready to play the game now! I’ve lost enough time, almost losing US forever when you got that job offer in NY. Martin and Gracie are right... I must tell you!

How could I’ve being so stupid to be leaded by those futile rules of who should do the first step in a relationship?... I’ve waited too long for my turtle to move... it’s my turn to take the lead...

“Jack...” “Sue...” they said in unison.

*****

Song is 'Never gonna give you up' from Rick Ashley

More soon...

Yes, that WAS the perfect song for Jack and Sue! Lovely . . . I hope we'll see more from them before we go on to the next couple? Please? Pretty Please??!!!

Beautiful song! Hope they confess their feelings soon!

Tere

Any, what a beautiful choice of song...perfect fit!!
Josy

Beautiful song as they dance into each other's hearts.

Please keep up the good work!

Heart wrenching scene and a big dose of soul searching, aptly appropriate for Jack and Sue.

Good Job!

Hi girls! Don't worry, we'll have more J/S moments... in a bit, but for now, lets get a glimpse on Bobby and Tara...


*****

While the song was playing, Bobby and Tara saw the thoughts running in Jack and Sue’s mind. They were enjoying their own closeness and touch, swirling on the dance floor like Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers.

“Who knew you was such an amazing dancer!” Exclaimed Tara in pure delight to be his partner.

“Well, luv, you know what they say in Australia?” He asked sparkles in his gaze, securely locked in her – pools. At her head shake-no he recited, “When the roo is going in the right direction, it’s easy to find your way home.”

Her raised eyebrows showed him that she wasn’t sure if he was serious with this ‘talking’ or not. It didn’t make much sense, after all. When she heard his laughter, she understood that she’d being had. Punching him playfully on the arm she grinned at him and complained, “You made it up, you Drongo!”

Laughing more heartedly he claimed, “Hum, do you know how sexy you look when you’re all steamed up like that? And using Aussie expression, no less! What’s not to love?”

His last word took her by surprise : she was dumbfounded by his choice of word. Did he say ‘love’? Did I hear him right?

As to reassure her he added, “What a loveable woman I have as a partner tonight... I’m sure every man around us must be green of jealousy...” He winked at her widely, showing his irresistible dimples.

“Pfff... is it me or is it getting warmer?” She joked and giggled to calm her wild heartbeat with no success.

“It’s a shame it is—I could have held you tighter to warm you up...” The implication of his statement clear as crystal both scared her and thrilled her at the same time. She was scared because in her wildest dream Bobby Manning couldn’t stop yelling his love for her, but never in the real life, with all the gorgeous women he’s date with, he could lowered his standards low enough to let her be a part of the competition. Although the way he was acting right here right now... she could give her fantasies a chance... could she?

Wow!!! What did Martin and Gracie had put in that punch, tonight? I’m gonna have to ask for their recipe! She thought for herself, snaking her arms tightly around his neck.

*****

More soon...

Can't wait for more!! L/M??


Tere

I don't know either but I want the recipe!!
Sweet scene Any!!
Josy

Yes, it was a very sweet Bobby/Tara post, Any . . . but you know me . . . !!

I've always loved that song and it is absolutely perfect for Jack and Sue!!!

And, Bobby and Tara don't seem to be doing all that badly either!!!

Joy

Hi! Sorry girls, but the punch recipe is to be kept secret... but it did contain apple juice!

Regina, I know you are indeed a HUGE and that there are several of them around here. So for all of you, here's more Jack/Sue moment...

*****

From a hidden place, near the corner of the house, two shadows were spying their friends.

“So... You like the show so far?” Martin asked his wife with a large smile on his face.

“I surely does, I surely does, hunny!” She replied grinning from ear to ear.

All the way through the second song, Jack and Sue put their cards on the table. Fortunately for both of them, they had drawn a perfect shot!

“You go ahead,” she offered shyly when she realised that they had spoke simultaneously.

Now that it was officially HIS turn to speak, he wasn’t sure if it was a good idea anymore, but something deep down inside was pleading him to spill his feeling for her... to spill them TO her. “Sue, I know we’ve known each other for a long time, now... but I’d like to learn to know more of you... in a different way...” Oh God! It’s hard! But enough is enough, Hudson! Now is as good a time as ever...

Seeing the hesitancy in his features, thoughts started to blurred her mind. Not again! How can he back off one more time? He was almost there! I could have sworn it! God, PLEASE... can you give him the courage he needs? Her silent prayer was answered when he opened his mouth again. Thank God! She mouthed silently.

His mouth opened, ready to confess what was eating him from inside for years, he saw her mouthed something—something that gave him even more nerves than he ever had. Winking at her he closed his mouth and asked, “Why did you thanked God?” She stopped swaying, unsure of how to answer, but as soon as she saw the brightness of his smile shine on his lips, she understood that he was once again playing with her, which made her own smile reach her eyes. She moved her feet to take on the dancing. “I assume you were thanking Him because I love you so much... that my life had turned upside down since you stormed in my office four years ago?” He implied appreciating the bright shade of red that spread on her face.

Hesitating a moment, she couldn’t restrained to voice these words. “Even after all those years you read me so well, Jack Hudson...” She mid mused, mid confessed, loosing herself in his dark pools.

The love shining from the couple could have made jealous the stars in the dark sky. As the truth sank in both hearts, they mutually closed the distance between them, almost afraid that if they were apart for even one more second, they would lost each other forever. The kiss they shared was timid and short, yet full of the now open passion they had for each other.

*****

More soon...! And maybe (as Cere asked...) with some Myles/Lucy moment...

Jack/Sue---> woohoo!!!

Lucy/Myles---> PLEASE!!

Tere

At last!! And, so Jack and Sue!!!

Well done, Any!!!

Joy

I just love a good Jack and Sue fuzzy moment . . . Thank you, Any . . . I think I can make myself go to work now!!

Perfect! Can't say much more to that!

Ahhhhh So lovely!!
Josy

Lovely fuzzy moments with both couples, any.

kav

THANKS so much so your kinds replies and for reading!!!

I'm glad you liked the Jack/Sue fuzzies... But now... are you ready for some more Bobby/Tara's?...

Don't worry, tomorrow will bring more Jack/Sue's...

But for now, lets play the music!

*****

The beat of the music changed—the song was from the same decade, but from another artist—it was Phil Collins’s song, and clearly dedicated to Bobby and Tara.

When they heard the first few words, wide smiles appeared on their face.

I need love, love
Ooh, ease my mind
And I need to find time
Someone to call mine;

“You hear this, luv? It’s our song...” Said Bobby winking lovingly at her.

“Yes it is... But I think it came a few minutes late...” She replied shyly between giggles.

My mama said
You can’t hurry love
No, you’ll just have to wait
She said love don’t come easy
But it’s a game of give and take

It’s almost a shame it took us so much time to understand the obvious...” Complained Bobby losing himself in her mesmerizing gaze.

You can’t hurry love
No, you’ll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes

Shining with as much love as he’d showed to her she declared wisely, “Yes... we waited a long time, but... maybe we weren’t ready for it before... I mean we both had someone in our lives...”

How many heartaches must I stand
Before I find the love to let me live again
Right now the only thing that keeps me hanging on
When I feel my strength, ooh, it’s almost gone

“Yeah... you had Stanley...” He stated a tint of sadness in his voice. What would have happened if you hadn’t met him? Would you’ve been able to love me then?

“And you had Darcy...” She reminded him gulping the emotions back down her throat at her souvenirs--how much pain she felt when he started to go out with the journalist...

I remember mama said
You can’t hurry love
No you’ll just have to wait
She said love don’t come easy
Its a game of give and take
How long must I wait
How much more must I take
Before loneliness
Will cause my heart, heart to break

Sighting at the memory he apologised. “Tara... I’m so sorry I’ve told you that kissing you reminded me of her... it was so far from the truth...!”

His confession had broken her heart, it was true. But she hadn’t being better when she’d learned it was over for good with Darcy and that she decided to follow Stanley to dinner instead of listening to what her heart was yelling at her. She saw in his eyes the pain she has caused.

No, I can’t bear to live my life alone
I grow impatient for a love to call my own
But when I feel that I, I can’t go on
Well these precious words keep me hanging on

“It’s okay, luv...” he said caressing her back gently. “We’ve being fools to avoid what our hearts were saying. The battle between hearts and minds, I suppose...”

“It was killing me to see you there everyday... so near me... though so inaccessible... You know what I mean?” She searched for his reassurance.

“I felt just the same, luv... I felt just the same...” He laid his head on the top of hers, never ending the light swaying they were doing, going way above the fast rhythm, but never caring--it was THEIR song.

I remember mama said
You can’t hurry love
No, you’ll just have to wait
She said love don’t come easy
Well, it’s a game of give and take
You can’t hurry love
No, you’ll just have to wait
Just trust in a good time
No matter how long it takes, now break!

“Now that we’ve found out that we’re in love, I’m sure it will be amazingly wonderful... each day that God intend to give us together...” Her words were wise and carrying all the love she felt toward him.

“You’re right, sweetheart. How could you not be? You’re a genius!” He placed a kiss on her forehead.

My mama said
You can’t hurry love
No, you’ll just have to wait
She said love don’t come easy
Its a game of give and take...

Things weren’t easy for them since their first kiss, although they knew one thing for sure at this very instant—their love was there to last and to build a new life... THEIR life.

*****

Song is 'You Can't Hurry Love' from Phil Collins.
More tomorrow!

Very nice Bobby/Tara fuzzies, Any . . . but you know I'm counting on this . . .

After all . . .

Wonderful Any!!
Can't wait for more!!!

Tere

I loved the choice of song...so them
Josy

Hi there!


Yeah... I do know! So as promissed ...

*****

Jack and Sue had decided to escape before the songs medley ended. They felt they needed to talk, to be just the two of them for a moment.

The trees around them were full of juicy fruits, ready to be taken off. Choosing a bright red apple, Jack showed a bench nearby so they could sit down a while.

“You didn’t take one for your girlfriend?” Teased Sue blushing at her comment.

Wide eyes were opened on his face staring at her, though she saw his chest rising slightly, sign that he was laughing. “For what I need to tell you I only need one, hunny.” The red he learned to love so much on her features grow one tint brighter.

“And... what would that be?” Sue inquired with raised eyebrow in anticipation.

“A tale... from Wisconsin.” He started mysteriously. Turning to see him more clearly in the mid-darkness, she silently thanked Gracie’s family for the solar lamps they had put along the road. Before he went on, he took his knife in his pocket—who knows when you can need it?! “We have a kind of legend back home that says that... if a man takes an apple,” he showed her the fruit, “... and cut it horizontally ... like this...” He proceeded to slice it and lead the two hafts in his hand. “...so you can see the star in its middle...”

Seeing he had stopped his telling, she pleaded him. “Yes? What happens?”

Smiling a million dollar smile he continued. “Well, if you can see red... around the star...”

“Like this?” She pointed to the hafts he held. “What does that mean?” She urged him, curiosity gaining her with each word.

“Yeah... They said that if the man shared his apple with the love of his life... they would have a happy marriage...” The intensity of his gaze almost burned her inside out.

“I love this tale... The ‘apple-ly marriage’ tale… let’s try it...” She said taking her haft and offering it to cheer with his before they bite slowly in the fruit of love, daydreaming together of what the future could hold for them.

*****

By the way, maybe I should try all this 'tale's thing... who knows if it's true, after all?...
More soon...

Thank you, Any . . . Very sweet!! What can I say? He's admitted she's the love of his life, told her what it means if you see red around the star . . . how can she have any doubts now??

Beautiful Any!!

Tere

I love this apple tale So sweet...
Josy

I love Jack's Wisconsin Apple tale. And I love Sue's reaction.

Good week end everyone! I'm glad you enjoyed the litle tale! It was so fun to write!

So... have we seeing Myles and Lucy yet?... No?... So that's where we're heading now!

*****

Myles and Lucy had witnessed the two previous couple’s reunion and were... well, quite nervous on how things were developing on their side of this story.

Lucy had noticed all the changes that had occurred on Myles since Sue had joined the team several years ago. At first, it was just some details that showed up unexpectently. Like the time when he apologized to Sue for how he’d treated her at the beginning. Or when he was playing with Togo the first time the little dog came to the office. He had developed a tight bond with the canine. Well, until he felt for Bobby...! She laughed inwardly.

Then there was the way he was recently acting toward her. Or had this change happened way before too... and she just noticed it?... He was more attentionate and takes care of her more than he ever had. All those tiny details had sent pleasant shivers through her lately—how could a girl don’t like to be protected... and love... LOVE??? Is he really in love with me? The hope she tried to cultivate in her heart was now resurfacing. Tonight was a special night and everything seemed to be possible...

Their breaking up had affected him more he ever will admit it—it was the worse deception he ever had, the worse thing he ever did to someone. He disgusted himself for doing so at the time... How could he had only THOUGHT that he could find something more with Sandy?... He was a cheater and the thought of what he’d done had hunted him for a long time. But tonight... He saw sparkles in her eyes again. Different sparkles that showed when she was dating with her recent flirts.

Lucy... you’ll never know how sorry I am and how much relief I felt when I saw in your eyes that you had forgave me. If only his pride could pushed itself aside for a moment, so he could told her high and clear...

Avoiding gazes as much as possible and looking away when by inadvertence they crossed them, they waited for their torture... for what should ‘open their eyes’ in their friend’s point of view...

*****

More soon... with their song and reactions...

Thanks Any!!

Tere

Hi! This is the last song for our favorite team. Hope you like it!

*****

Playing with people’s feelings wasn’t a usual hobby for Martin and Gracie, but it was for all of their friend’s sake and happiness... So they were ready to face whatever after shot that could come after this night.

“Are you sure it will work with those two as well?” Asked Gracie unsure if they were doing the right thing for the rotor and the Harvard educated.

Sighting deeply he declared, “No... I’m not. But if we don’t try anything, who will?” Seeking for her gaze he raised her chin with his finger and gently kissed her worries away. “Don’t you think it’s time they at least speak to each other honestly about what happened?” Her shy nod was enough for him—they will gather the broken pieces later if there was. They snuggled in each other’s arms to watch the last play of the game.

The last song was entammed by the band, bringing a new beat—it was Trisha Yearwood’s.

What do you do when love comes along
And offers your heart a chance to move on
With no guarantees, no safety net
You trust what you feel, you take that first step

Yes they had love, the duo though and with absence of said safety net, they had crashed royally. Because of my stupidity... Chastised Myles to himself.

The shadowy smile she gave him sank in his soul, crying loud that what he’d done was past, that she might be ready for starting over another chapter.

Just close your eyes
Reach for the moment
Before it slips by
Here is your second chance
Take it and fly

Yes Myles... I’ll give you another chance to show me how special I am for you... If only God could guarantee me that you won’t throw it away or break my heart once again...

Smiling back shyly he tightened his grip on her hand, trying desperately to show her how he would hold on on THEM if a them might be...

The weight of the world, the need to survive
Has made you believe, that you've got no right
Then out of the blue, you meet someone
Who offers a place, warm as the sun

Taking his courage both hands he started talking. “Lucy, I know I’ve hurt you... and I’m sorry. How could I repay you enough for having forgiven me?”

Flabagastered by his words, she questioned, “When... when did you find out that I had?” She was searching for what he was feeling at this very instant, and was surprised to see that she could read him clearly as a book—it was so unlike him, since he usually was hiding everything so deep down his soul, deep down his heart, sure to be out of reach for anybody...

Just close your eyes
Reach for the moment
Before it slips by
Here is your second chance
Take it and fly

Glancing nervously around them, he said, “I guess I know since a while... But I didn’t dare to believe it until tonight—when I saw the look in your eyes when I offered you my hand to dance with me.”

“And why’s that? Why all the doubt you felt? Didn’t you trust me?” She wondered a wave of hurt shadowing her feature as tears menacingly threatened to invade her gaze.

“No!” He assured her cupping her cheek in his hand, “... I didn’t trusted ME...”

Just when you think love is a distant dream
Oh, fate give you wings

The frown on her face made him clarified his thought. “I was so in love with you, Luce... I had disappointed myself so much, that I couldn’t reasonably believe that you could give me another chance. I wasn’t worth it...” Shy tears started to pool his hazel eyes, something she didn’t thought she could witness some day.

“You have to keep faith, Myles... Didn’t Sue have taught you that yet?” She asked playfully to lighten the atmosphere between them.

Just close your eyes
Reach for the moment
Before it slips by
Here is your second chance
Take it and fly

He closed his eyes emotions invading his body and soul as new tears reached his firm jaw. She reached for them with her slim finger and wiped them away.

“I never want to open them again because if I do I’m afraid that this beautiful dream will come to an end... I don’t want it to.” He confessed trying to bring her frail body closer to his, needing the warmth of it.

“Look at me Myles,” she pleaded urge clearly in her tone. Seeing him obliged, she whispered, “Neither do I.” And she securely laid her head in his shoulder, ready for the chapter they started writing while they were dancing in this autumn night.

*****

More soon...
Just one or two post left...

That was beautiful, any. Forgiveness wields such power. I'm glad Myles and Lucy have figured it out.

kav

Wonderful post, Any. I've always been a big fan of Myles and Lucy, and I'm glad to see them getting together!

Oh Wow Any!!! What a powerful post...I read it and read it over and over again...I just loved how the emotions flow through...
Josy

BEAUTIFUL!
