It had been a long time since the hospital and I hadn't seen them since that night. Well, I hadn't seen them together that is. I had seen him in the tabloids on the stands I passed everyday on my morning walks, though I didn't know who he was because I didn't stop to read the captions. And I had seen her once, exiting a car and walking up to an apartment building. I assumed she lived there since she didn't really seem like she was in the mood to see or talk to anyone. That was about one month after the hospital, and she still looked sad and lonely. It was easy to tell that she missed him, much more than she would care to admit. But now they were sitting across from me laughing merrily like that night had never happened. I had been eating at a restaurant I have been going to for years, Remy's, when not thirty minutes later they walked in arm in arm. He was carrying a garment bag and I could see a scarlet fabric poking out of it; I assumed it was a dress she had been wearing earlier. They both looked much happier than before, especially her. There was an ever-present grin on her face as she twirled her hair. They were joking and teasing each other playfully as they sat on either side of the booth never taking their eyes off of the other. The waitress, I knew her as Becky, knew them well so I gathered that they had been regulars here for a long time. When she came over to take my order she caught me staring at them and quickly commented that Kate and Rick were one of the cutest couples she had seen in a long time. So they were a couple again, even though it was blatantly obvious I liked the reassurance that everything was all right with these people. Kate and Rick, I didn't think it was appropriate to use the nickname she had given him for that seemed to be hers, were them.
