Beau saw her walk through the door when he was about to sing 'Chances Are'. He was dumbstruck and couldn't stop to look at her and she was doing the same. They were just talking to each other using their eyes 'til she gave him a smile. The smile he was waiting for. The comeback smile. He knew it was even if he have never seen it. He knew what it meant, and he couldn't do anything but smile - and maybe die of happiness - while his heartbeats were getting faster.

Beau invites her to the stage and there was only one song to sing. Just one to express what was happening. Their song.

During the singing, all he did was stare her. He did notice that her make up, hairspray, and fake fingernails was gone. She was so beautiful as she is when she is drunk, so beautiful as she was in the first time she saw her in her underwear - "I'm gonna wanna be Miss America one day.", he remembers. So beautiful as she was in the first and only night that they slept together. He also noticed that she was using the diamond earrings that he gave to her.

They finished the song but didn't stop to looking to each other, without saying a word. Anyone in the crowd could see what was going on.

"I'm gonna watch the rest of the show." She said with a wide smile while catching her bag.

"Chiles…" He finally said the name he was avoiding to think in the last months.

"I'll be at the bar."

"Chiles…" He said again when she was walking to the bar. He was feeling that he waited enough for her comeback and he couldn't waste a second.

Beau put the guitar on the floor and called the next band to go on the stage.

Chiles was watching him going in her direction while she was asking for a couple of water at the bar.

"Beau, you finished? I miss your voice." She gave him another smile.

"You came here and you expect me to sing?"

"I always expect you to sing."

He got closer an put his arms on her waist, pushing her to a strong hug. He was taking a deep breath as he felt her petite body pressing his and softly rose his hands to her back, starting to smell her neck. There was so much in his head, a lot of thing to ask, to say.

She gently caressed his nape. "Do you know how important my dream is to me, don't you?"

He gave her a kiss on her ear, hugging her even more. He was scared, scared of her disappearing again. "I know, babe. I know."

"That's why I decided to chase it. It is here. Will you help me?"

Beau was now smelling her hair and touching it with one of his hands.

"Here?"

"Yeah. My unique dream is here."

He smiled and touched his forehead on hers, looking deep inside her big brown eyes.

"You don't tell me."

"And it's so good to hold it in my arms. It's better than I could imagine." Chiles was already with tears in her eyes.

"Will you help me to get my dream back?"

Beau touched her nose with his. "Just if you help me to get mine."

He put a lock of her hair behind of her ear and brought her chin next to his.

When their lips touched, Chiles had the feeling of victory, the one that you just feel when you get back a precious thing that you have lost. Beau felt like everything is in place now, the way it supposed to be.

They were almost hearing bells during the kiss that they waited for so long. But it was interrupted when they heard someone screaming next to them: "Beau, you dog!"
