Moon Shadow: I have nothing to say except this is the last chapter, and
thanks to everybody for their reviews and for putting up with me. Here it
is:
*** That night, on the boat, Ben Caraway stood alone on the deck, staring out at the ocean, the moonlight shining on his red hair.
"Ben?" he heard a soft voice.
Ben turned and saw Sara standing a little behind him.
"Hey, " he said, and reached out for her hand, pulling her next to him.
"Am I bothering you?" she asked sleepily, resting her head on his shoulder.
"Of course not. You never bother me." He answered, pulling her close. "Never."
They stood there for a minute. Then Sara pulled away and looked up at him. "Do you love me?" she asked quietly.
Ben looked at her. "Yes." He said.
"Really?"
"Sara." Ben said, taking her hands. "Yes. I love you."
Sara smiled and leaned forward. She wrapped her arms around his neck. "I love you too." She said, and pulled his head down to hers, kissing him.
When she released him, she let him hold her for a minute before whispering to him, "If you love me, Ben, then you'll do me a favor."
"Sure."
"Ben." Sara leaned close to him so she was speaking into his ear. Her voice was barely a breath as she whispered, "Kill the Walkers. Kill Tim and Lee."
