After a long flight from Springfield to Greece, Gus and Harley finally landed in Greece, Haley's home she's stayed in since she left the town eleven years ago. She was so glad and happy to be with the man she loved in Gus Airtoro and when he went through everything while the world thought he was dead, he fought his way to come back to Harley. That night at Company's when he showed up and took Harley by surprise, all he wanted to do was just to wrap his arms around Harley and never let go. When they were on the airplane to Greece, Gus couldn't stay asleep as he was wondering what to do with the rest of his life, now that he was alive, free and not in the Ultimate Force's grasp anymore. There was a lot of things they could do together now, they could spend a lot of time sight seeing Greece together, have romantic dinners and even spend a lot of time in bed. Hell, they could go down to one of the beaches in Greece but there was one thing Gus had in mind that was important. Getting off the plane, grabbing Harley's luggage for her, the two of them leave the airport in Harley's car before going to her home that was near the beach. Arriving at her home, Gus and Harley get out of the car as he looked around the place.
Gus - "The view here is incredible Harley, looks like you did a lot of good after I was away"
Harley - "Well it wasn't easy at first, raising two boys by myself despite dad, Frank, Marina, Phillip and the others coming by for visits to help, but along the way everything got better"
Gus - "I'm happy to hear that but before we get in, allow me to do the honors, shall I?"
Harley - "What honors-WOAH!"
Gus sweeps Harley off of her feet by picking her up into his arms as she was caught off guard. But in the end she laughed, remembering the first time they got married and he carried her across the threshold to their honeymoon.
Gus - "You know we never got the chance to do this again. We were divorced and the love we shared died, but now I would love to carry you to our new home for our new beginning"
Harley - "Be my guest prince charming"
The two smile at each another before Gus carries Harley into her home after she gave him the keys. Kicking the door behind him Gus sets Harley down before kissing her again and boy did it feel so good to be like this with without worrying about anything as of right now.
Gus - "Mmmmm….ouch! Oh boy!"
Harley - "Gus, what's wrong? Are you-?"
Gus - "Hurting? Yes I am Harley, still, I guess it's going to take a long time before the old me is a hundred percent again. Those years in confinement at that compound nearly beat the breaks off of yours truly"
Harley - "Well don't worry about that Gus, later on I want to take you to the doctor so we can schedule appointments for your rehabilitation"
Gus - "That's all fine and dandy Harley but there's something else I want to take care of too, besides my own health"
Harley - "And what's that?"
Gus - "Finding out more information about my death and making sure the Ultimate Force pays for what they've done to me including Reva's family as well Harley"
Harley frowned but wished he didn't have to say that after they just got back from Springfield. From the look on Gus's face, he wasn't budging or backing away from what the man just said. Turning away from Harley, the man was able to walk up to one of the windows in what was the main living room. He placed his hands on the window he walked up to and placed one of his hands on there, looking out at the view of the beautiful ocean that had so many waves crashing against one another. Damn it, Gus was robbed out of memories like this thanks to the Ultimate Force. He deserved to have a great life, regardless of who it would be with, Harley, Olivia, Natalia, spending time with his son. There was no way they could escape what they did to Gus. The man was looking forward to make sure Olivia got the heart she needed on that day before Gus died, but something wasn't right. How did the Ultimate Force know about that day and when were they exactly going to take him? There were a lot of questions that needed to be answered and if there's someone who can help him, it's Harley but maybe a couple of more people can help them out. The more, the better right?
Harley wondered what was going on in her lover's head at the moment. She didn't like how he was thinking of already going after the Ultimate Force after all the hell they put him through and what he himself has been through. On the one hand Harley could not blame Gus for feeling frustrated, angry of all the times his life was taken away from him thanks to the organization of the Ultimate Force. They were nothing but a bunch of monsters who were designed to ruin people's lives. Gus didn't deserve to be tormented and treated like some kind of pet project for them of poking at. Harley couldn't imagine what Gus went through when she thought he died and despite her going to prison for what she didn't do back then, it wasn't comparable to the experience Gus lived every single day while he should have been in Springfield. If Harley could not have been with him as her husband, her lover, her hero anymore than that was fine. Harley was a survivor but after Gus so called 'died', she thought of the many regrets the Private Investigator wished she could tell Gus herself. Approaching Gus, Harley wrapped her arms around him and lays her head on his shoulder before looking up at the view with him.
Gus - "You're not pleased aren't you?"
Harley - "Don't get me wrong Gus, i'm glad your back and I am so glad you're with me right now. But you've just returned and now you want to discover the truth?"
Gus - "Of course I do Harley, don't I deserve to discover the truth as you just said now?"
Harley - "Yes, but take it one step at a time. Not only do you need to do that but we've got to make sure rehabilitation comes first too, your health depends on it, and then….then"
Gus - "Then what?"
Gus turns around to see Harley look away from him before he caressed her face and brushed a stray piece of hair behind her ear. He wanted to hear everything from her and not keep it behind, which is one of the reasons their marriage, their relationship, imploded in the first place.
Gus - "Look at me Harley, then what? Tell me"
Harley - "I want us to spend more time with one another Gus. We've lost so much time with one another, when we divorced I felt like we've danced around our issues so much, in the end it took you dying to get out our feelings"
Gus - "Can't say I blame you for feeling that way Harley. Yes, Natalia and Olivia came into my life so fast, and with Rafe I put you through so much it's unforgivable. You deserved better than that you know? I love you Harley"
Harley - "And I love you too Gus. You're right, I did, but did you feel that both of us should of fought harder for our marriage to work?"
Gus - "Yes Harley, we've should of done more…well me of course. There's so much regret on my part Harley and so much I don't want us to waste. But I still want us to look into what happened to me, spend time together while going through rehabilitation"
Haley - "More like divide time?"
Gus - *Smiles* "Yes Harley, meaning we can investigate spend more time together, and then making sure I can get better"
Harley - *Grins* "I like the way you think Airtoro, I like the way you think"
The two of them begin kissing one another as Harley starts fiddling with the buttons of Gus's shirt before he slides those hands of his underneath her shirt after they removed her jacket. Suddenly Gus started to remember something causing him to pull away Harley.
Harley - "What? What's wrong Gus? Is me? Did I push you too far again?"
Gus - "No baby, it's not your fault…I just thought of something, well more like remembered something"
Harley - "Okay, what is it?"
Gus - "The day I died….something happened. My mind, my head was all fuzzy and not in the right place Harley at the scene of the incident. When I opened my eyes and turned around, there was a text message on my cell phone. It said that the heart transplant for Olivia was rejected…"
Harley - "It was rejected? How? Did the message say anything else?"
Gus - "Can't remember anything else from that day besides the incident and me going to the hospital. But I don't want to think of that now…I want you Harley"
Harley - "Are you sure Gus…you're not a hundred percent you know? We still to get my luggage out of the car"
Gus - "That's true but at least we can take this slow, together, and as far as the luggage, that can wait Harley. Now…where were we?"
Harley and Gus kissed again before taking their time, not rushing this moment they would cherish together. Still kissing Harley, he picks her up again into his arms before they got upstairs and land on the bed together in Harley's bedroom (now Gus and Harley's bedroom). Being on top of Gus and straddling his lap, Harley sat up and removed her shirt showing the blonde wearing her magenta bra. Leaning back down again she kissed Gus while she unbutton his shirt exposing that chest of his that was not just rock hard, but lost a lot of wait with some scars here and there. Harley looks at it and felt sad before Gus took her hand and placed it on the scar, basically telling her it was okay from the look on his face. Harley smiled at Gus before she deepened the kiss again with Gus's hands reaching behind her back and unhooking the bra, throwing it to the other side of the room. Minutes later, Gus and Harley were on cloud nine together, making love and reconnecting physically, mentally, and intimately. At least the two of them had their happy ending in a way, and even though more work had to be done, for now they had a lot of making up to do. Bad news is, the people they love in Springfield are about to go through much worse.
