Finding my Way Back to You

The day Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald has waited for her entire life finally arrived. Today, she married her one true love, Ethan Winthrop, and tonight, they were joined together as husband and wife in all ways that matter.

Late into the night, Theresa woke up feeling Ethan's arms wrapped around her. God, how I love this man she thinks to herself as she watches him sleep. Careful so as to not wake him, Theresa gets out of bed and goes to stand in the veranda of the honeymoon suite, watching the sun rise on a new day. Watching a new day come, Theresa sighs in relief, and thanks God for what he's given her.

"God, how wrong I was to think fate would turn its back on me. Fate played the biggest role in my life in letting Ethan be with me all over again. I vow that I will never let anything come between the love that Ethan and I share."

"Well, that's a promise I intend to keep as well." Ethan says as he wraps his arms around his wife.

"Good Morning." Theresa says as she kisses Ethan's cheek.

"Good Morning, my love. Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I didn't want to wake you. I just wanted to come here and think out loud."

"I heard. You're right, you know. Fate did have it in mind that we spend the rest of our lives together. And I promise you, Theresa, that I will always love you, and I will never give up on us."

"Do you realize how lucky I am? I have you, my son, my family..."

"I'm the lucky one. Not only do I get an incredible woman to spend my life with, I get another family, and a beautiful boy to be a role model to."

"We've been through so much, Ethan." Theresa says as she reflects on all the hills and valleys their love has endured to get to this moment.

As Ethan strokes Theresa's cheek, he looks deeply into her eyes. "And it was fate that helped me find my way back to you."

"Do you regret anything, Ethan?"

"The only regret I'll ever have is that I didn't pick you to begin with. You own my heart, Theresa, and you alone. For the rest of my life, I vow to always show and remind and tell you how much you mean to me. You are my entire world, baby, you and Little Ethan. I love you both from the bottom of my heart, to the depths of my soul, and to the ends of the Earth."

"Promise me something, Ethan."

"Anything, baby."

"No more regrets. From here on out, we do things the way we want, and we always will confide in each other for help, guidance, and everlasting love."

"That's a promise I will keep, Theresa. I love you so much."

"And I love you, Ethan. Always and forever."

The End :-)
