Chapter 3-The Truth is out
A couple of days later...
"Who'd have thought it? Isabella Genaro!" Exclaims Gerry when we're all at the pub after we've finished the case dubbed the'Ice Cream Wars' by Jack. 'I certainly didn't expect it!' I chip in. "Poor kid, she did it to protect her family" says Brian thoughtfully. 'Brian, I know you solved the case and all, but Isabella still committed a crime and she's going to be punished for it' I reply. Brian nods.
Jack downs his drink. "Come on, Brian, I'll give you a lift home" he says, standing up. 'Good night, 'see you tomorrow' I smile at them both
"I'd better be off too" says Gerry ten minutes later. I catch his arm as he stands up. 'Gerry, can I talk to you?' I ask. There's no time like the present to ask him if what Caitlin says is true. "Sandra, what's up?" he asks, sitting back down. 'Right, well, when I talked to Caitlin the other day she said that you were in love with me, she can see it and that it's no use bottling it up anymore' I reply, my words coming out in a rush. Gerry looks shocked for a moment, then asks: "Do you love me back?" I'm taken aback, of course I do! 'Yes' I reply quietly, closing my eyes for a minute, I've been blinded by, a light bulb flickering to the side of me.
The next thing I know, Gerry's kissing me. For a moment, I'm tense. Then I kiss him back, wrapping my arms around his neck.
THE END
I hope you enjoyed my little fic!
