OK this story takes place about five years after the race. It's Eva's birthday. She's turning the age twenty. Eva still misses Jordan and wants him to come back. Oh yeah I don't own Oban Star Racers.
Staring out at the ocean, a woman stood watching children run along the shoreline. She wasn't really paying any attention to these laughing children, because she was lost in her own thoughts. She remembered being in a temple when he sacraficed himself for her to live. Before he jumped from that high point, his exact words were
I love you Molly.
He jumped and then killed Cannaletto. The bad thing about this was that he could not come back to Earth. This was horrifying. Before he transported her back to her team, he left a kiss that she vowed she would never foget. It had been five years. Today was her birthday. Since then, she hasn't gone out on a date or had a boyfriend. She let a single tear escape it's prison.
"Eva? Are you alright, Eva." ,one of the children had actually come up to her to snap her out of her spell.
"Sorry Maria. I was just thinking." ,Eva said.
"Your daddy told me that you needed to come home immediately." ,Maria said.
Getting up, Evathanked the little girl, and walked home. She came through the door. The house was darkfor only two seconds when they turned on and her former racing team was standing there in front of her. Everyone except for Jordan. Jordan could never be able to visit her, especially since he was the avatar. She jumped so hard she had to sit down.
"I hope you like your surprise party, Eva" ,her father, Don, said in a gentle voice.
Smiling she said, "I love it, dad."
Everyone had given her presnts and they had cake and ice cream. It was almost eight in the evening when Don stood up and annouced that he had a special surprise for Eva. Eva thought it would be her favorite ship at her father's work.
"Come on now don't be shy. I know you haven't seen this person in a long while, but you'll know who it is right away, Eva." ,Don said. He went into the hall. It was a few minutes before Don came out. When he came out there was someone behind him. Don stepped out of the way. Eva couldn't believe what she was seeing. She stood up slowly and walked over to the man. The man was Jordan. They stood there only a foot apart looking at each other. Jordan broke the silence.
"Hey Eva, I can't belive it's been five years." ,he said in a soft voice. Eva, with happy tears, closed the space and wrapped her arms around his neck in an embrace. Jordan put his arms around her waist hugging her tightly so as she would never leave his protective arms. They stood back a foot or so away from each other when the hug was over.
"Dad, can Jordan and I go on a walk, so we can catch up on the past five years, since we haven't seen each other?" ,Eva asked still looking at Jordan.
"Of course you can. Just don't get lost." ,Don said. Eva led Jordan to the door. As Jordan was passing Don, Don muttered, "Take great care of her. I shall miss both of you. Come to visit often." Jordan nodded at him knowing that Don could spot a plan a mile away.
The couple sat in the upper part of the beach holding hands. Eva was watching the stars with Jordan.
"So, how's Oban doing?" , Eva asked.
"It's OK, but there's like no one to talk to. I know it's really beautiful, but it gets boring real quick." ,Jordan replied.
"So, are you twenty-two now?" ,Eva asked. Jordan just nodded.
"When do you have to go back?" , Eva asked nervously.
"Actually, I have to leave tonight. that's why I came here. I wanted to ask you something really important. Would you come and live with me on Oban?" ,Jordan asked in a shaky voice.
"You know I want to, but my father-" ,Eva started.
"Your father already approved of you coming to Oban with me. He somehow figured out I was going to ask you that sort of question. He just wants us to visit often." ,Jordan interupted.
"If he says it's alright then I shall accompany you." ,Eva said.
"Um Eva, I have a present for you, and that's not what I was asking. I want to ask for your hand in marrigde." ,Jordan said, pulling a ring out of his pocket and kneeling on his right knee.
Shocked, but thrilled at the same time, Eva said, "Yes, I will marry you."
Jordan stood up and kissed her for what seemed like forever. Above their heads a shooting star flew across the sky as it eluminated it. After they parted, they walked to Don's house hand in hand.
OK I hope you all liked it. Sorry this is so short. In the next chapter is where they get married and go to Oban. Thanks for all the other reviews. Don't forget to review this one too.
