What a Life

Yes, this was Anne and Gil, but I found a better name for it. This is Anne and Gilbert's life between 3 weeks before they were married and a while afterwards. Hope you like!!! *Chapter 10 finally up!*

Chapter 3

            Five hours later, Anne and Gilbert arrived at their new Glen St. Mary home.

            As they approached their doorway, Gil unlocked their 'House of Dreams'. He picked her up and carried her 'over the threshold' and into their new home. He set her down and gave her a long, passionate kiss.

            Gilbert looked at his beautiful new wife, and whispered, "Wait until you see the backyard."

            "What's in the backyard?" She asked him.

            "You'll see." He took her into the backyard.

            Anne looked around and said, "Gilbert, it's wonderful! And look at the view. It's perfect for viewing the ocean and… the sunset! Look at the sunset! It's beautiful! I can't believe it. I think it's more beautiful than Green Gables."

            "I knew you'd like it."

            They sat there for another hour or so watching the sun set across the sky. Though Gilbert couldn't take his eyes off his wife. He still couldn't believe it, Anne Shirley was finally his. Well, Anne Blythe is more like it. He liked the sound of that. Yes, Anne Blythe, Mrs. Anne Blythe. It had a kind of ring to it.
