Lucy turned around and gasped. He was walking this way, and Alison
had no idea. "Lucy Coe Collins?" he asked, worried that it wasn't the
right person.
As Alison heard his voice she started to choke on a piece of salad she had just taken a bite of. "Are you ok there?" he said, patting her on the back and getting it out of her throat. "Thank you," she said still scared to turn around.
"Yes, I'm Lucy Collins. Can I help you?" she asked, already knowing what he was going to say.
"Well, you don't know me, but Karen Wexler told me you were here. My name is Rafe Kovich, and I'm your cousin."
This time, instead of it being food, Alison sprayed water across the table. Livvie looked at her nearly in laughter, "Do we need to get you a bib?"
"No, Livvie. That's quiet alright," she said, happy to know her old best friend was back.
"Well, Rafe let me introduce you to my step-daughter, Livvie Locke. This is Livvie's best friend, Alison Barrington." Alison finally had the courage to turn around. She looked up and saw that smile and those big brown eyes. "Hi," was all she could get out.
"So, what brings you to Port Charles?" Lucy asked, trying to hide her excitement that everything seemed to be ok.
"Well, I don't have any other family really. I just decided I wanted a fresh start in life, and found out you were a relative and decided to meet you," he said, still noticing the blonde at the table. "Alison, is it?" he asked, "Have we met somewhere before?"
"No, I don't think so," she said, giving Lucy an evil eye.
"Well, since I'm over here, I think I'm going to go see my husband," Lucy smiled at Alison and Livvie, and left.
Livvie caught on quick, as to what Lucy was up to, "Hey Alison, I'm going to go visit Jack for a little bit at the bike shop. Come by when you're done eating, ok?"
So there Alison sat, knowing perfectly well who this guy was standing behind her, but worried to talk to him. He moved over and sat at the seat Livvie had been at moments ago.
"So, Alison, what is it like to live in Port Charles?" he asked, glad to get some personal time with her.
"Port Charles is nice. It's a place where you aren't sure what tomorrow will bring, but you know you can deal with it, demons and all."
"Interesting comment there, especially the demons part," he said, noticing her blue eyes and how they danced when she smiled.
She realized that there was no more salad on the plate to occupy her. She looked up and smiled at him. "Do you want to take a walk and I can show you around?"
"I'd love that."

They'd been walking for hours. She listened to him talk, and tell about his life. It made her happy to hear that for the past twelve years he hadn't been an angel, but had a real life. He made no comments about slayers, vampires, or avatars.
Where could Caleb be though? Then she realized that the wish had let Olivia live, and they were together at last-as husband and wife. She realized that meant everyone was going to get their happy ending, even Caleb.
"Do you want to sit down over here?" she said, pointing to a bench.
"Ok," he followed her over.
"This may be a silly question, but do you believe in angels?" she asked, hoping that hadn't changed.
"Yes, I do," he could feel his hands getting sweaty. "How about you?"
"Oh yes, I believe in angels. I believe I've even met one once."
"Really?"
"Mmm hmm. So what do you want to do next?" She asked her eyes in constant motion at the surrounding scenery.
"I want to kiss you," he said. He leaned over, placed his hands on the sides of her face and kissed her. With that, Alison knew that everything was going to be fine from now on.
Author's Note: It's finished! I wish I didn't have to write this finale, but hey I'll deal with that later. I've got one thing, and I'd like some feedback on. If what I just said about Caleb was true (that he and the original Olivia ended up together) do you think he ended up a vampire or not? I keep thinking this, and am not sure. I mean the whole concept was that those things that changed due to his presence went back to before, then he may not have ever been bitten by his step-mother.true? Anyways, hope you like my ending!
