She rung the doorbell. Nothing. Nothing. And then footsteps, Oh god she was gonna lose her nerve! He answered the door. She had waited all day and it was now 8:17. He obviously was shocked to see her. "Jethro can I come in?" she asked maintaining her nerve at least for the moment. He motioned her in still bewildered. She walks downstairs to the boat, where else would he have been? Aside from that he had that sawdust smell. "Jenny," she mentally reminded herself, "Stop undressing him your eyes and focus. Tell him about your dream."
She leaned her back up against part of the boat. "Why you here Jen?" he asked. "Jethro this is going to sound crazy." That's how she started it. She told him everything, she had learned after quite a while that honesty was best. She ended with "January was right. Jethro I never stopped loving you." she said bowing her head. There it was out. Jethro didn't move for a solid minute. But what he did surprised her. He lifted up her chin and kissed her. A kiss that held all the years wasted and promised years in the future. "Let's get working on Niva." he said smiling mischievously.
She was up the next morning making coffee when he walked in. "Hey," he said smiling, "How's my woman?" Jenny blinked. "Your woman? Honestly Jethro, are you trying to get me to shoot you?" Jethro only winked. This was going to a be fun, yet very bumpy road.
