Epilogue
That sat on beach chairs just as they had done 30 years ago.
"This place is even more beautiful than the last time we were here. This time is almost as special too." Theresa said as she looked out to the ocean.
"They look like they're in heaven don't they?"
Theresa and Fox sat by the ocean side like they had done 30 years ago on their first honeymoon. This was their 30-year anniversary. They had decided to make it even more special than the last and brought their children with them. They had also brought their grandchildren with them.
"I'm glad we decided to make this a family thing Fox."
"Yeh me too. It makes me happy to see everyone having so much fun."
"Yeh. It does."
They said as they looked at their children and grandchildren in the water.
"We do have beautiful grandchildren Nicholas. Don't you think?"
"Yes, amazing but of course non one compares to the beauty of my world."
"And who would that be?"
"Do you even have to ask Resa?"
"I love you Nicholas."
"I love you too Resa."
Just as they were about to kiss both of them had their eyes covered.
"Guess who?"
"Alexandra? Jeffrey?" Theresa asked thinking it was her grandchildren.
"No silly it's us."
The hands were removed and both Theresa and Fox turned around to see that Chad and Whitney were standing in front of them. They hugged and kissed while saying their hellos.
"How did you guys get here?" Theresa asked happily.
"We flew." Chad replied.
"We thought you wouldn't be able to make it." Fox said
"We just had some things to take care of before coming down." Whitney explained.
"It's great you were able to come." Theresa said as she settled back into her chair.
"This is the best." Fox said.
"We can see you two are truly happy."
"It's weird to see that we've all lasted so long." Chad said.
"Yeh, there was a time when I thought you and I wouldn't make it Chad. I'm glad we did.
Theresa leaned over and turned on the radio beside her. A sweet melody came on and the singer started the song.
(When I first saw you, I saw love.
And the first time you touched me, I felt love.
And after
All this time, you're still the one I love.)
Looks like we made it
Look how far we've come my baby
We mighta took the long way
We knew we'd get there someday
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
Ain't nothin' better
We beat the odds together
I'm glad we didn't listen
Look at what we would be missin'
They said, "I bet they'll never make it"
But just look at us holding on
We're still together still going strong
(You're still the one)
You're still the one I run to
The one that I belong to
You're still the one I want for life
(You're still the one)
You're still the one that I love
The only one I dream of
You're still the one I kiss good night
When the song ended Theresa had tears in her eyes. She turned to Fox who during the song had grabbed and held her hand. She smiled at him sweetly and it melted his heart. He too had listened to the song and knew that it was meant for them.
"I love you Resa."
"I love you too."
Chad and Whitney got up to go play in the water with kids.
"Remember we're not that young anymore!" Theresa shouted after them as she and Fox laughed."
After a while Theresa and Fox went to bed. The next day they would be leaving.
***********************8
"Fox, Fox, wake up."
"What? No. Look outside the sun's not up yet."
"C'mon Fox, please."
"Fine." he said as he got out of bed.
"May I ask why you insisted on waking me up so early?"
"I was thinking we could watch the sunrise together before we have to go home."
"Alright honey."
So they went out to the ocean and walked in it until the water was up to their knees.
"Remember this?" Theresa asked as she opened her palm.
Fox looked inside her hand, she was holding the seashell her had given her 30 years ago. A tear fell down his face.
"I didn't expect you to keep it."
"I wanted to. I knew it meant a lot to you. It means a lot to me too."
"I thought you threw it away that day we had an argument."
"I did but I got it back after you left." she smiled and so did he.
"You make me so happy Theresa."
"I know. You make me happy too. That's why I love you."
He looked deep in her eyes and though they were both 50 and she had aged gracefully. He could still se the sparkle in her eyes that had been there 30 years ago when he walked into her life.
The End.
