Kathryn was practically tearing her mother's attic apart looking for her niece's baby clothing. Her sister was nearing the end of her second pregnancy, Phoebe once again waiting until the last minute to prepare for her daughter's arrival. Since she missed her sister's first pregnancy Kathryn wanted more than anything to be a part of this one. Even if it meant rummaging through a dusty old attic. Out of the corner of her eye, Kathryn spotted what seemed to be a photo album. Naturally, she was inclined to open it, curious to see the photos that were inside. When she lifted the album off an old desk dust flew everywhere, indicating it hadn't been touched in awhile. Kathryn's breath hitched when she opened the photo album. The first photo was of her and her first love, Justin. It was taken in front of the Eiffel Tower. The young couple was smiling and looking into each other's eyes which were full of happiness. They were experiencing the blissfulness that came with young love. The album was full of pictures from their trip to France the summer before Justin died. Kathryn sat in the corner of the attic and began to look at the photos.

I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all
Walks along the Seine
Laughing in the rain

Our last summer
Memories that remain

We made our way along the river
And we sat down in the grass by the Eiffel tower

I was so happy we had met
It was the age of no regret
Oh, yes

But underneath
We had a fear of flying

Of growing old
A fear of slowly dying

We took our chance
Like we were dancing our last dance

I can still recall
Our last summer
I still see it all

In the tourist jam
Round the Notre Dame

Our last summer
Walking hand in hand

Living for the day
Worries far away
Our last summer

o-o-o

When Kathryn closed the album she became aware of tears she didn't realize she had shed. Although engaged, Kathryn realized that Justin would always have a special place in her heart. Before going back downstairs Kathryn whispered.

"I miss you, Justin, I'm so grateful for our last summer"

Memories that remain
