((Epilogue))
The airport was crowded, the five students struggled to find the gate where they were supposed to leave from.
"I don't know why we couldn't have waited!" Harry shouted out at the other four.
"The girls would've only been a few more moments! What if they don't get here in time?" Tal looked over the crowd anxiously. The two girls that Tal and Harry had been seeing had decided to enroll for a year abroad at their college, along with one of their friends. Harry was planning on getting an engagement ring after they returned to the states. Nina couldn't stop teasing him on how hard he had fallen for this girl. Christian just smiled as he looked at his four companions, happy to be going home. The last week of finals had been rough, but they had all made it. Harry put his arm around Christian's shoulder.
"Maybe once we get to the states you'll finally let us set you up with the girls friend we had talked about weeks ago. She still really wants to meet you." Harry whispered to him. Christian just smiled and chuckled.
"Maybe Harry, maybe…" Christian was cut off as Tal announced that the girls had arrived. Harry rushed over to them as the four began to hug and talk. Christian laughed as he walked up to Rick and Nina.
"I still can't believe Harry is so serious about this one." Nina shook her head is disbelief.
"Have you even met them yet?" Christian asked.
"No, They always wanted to go off, just the four of them. Speaking of numbers isn't there supposed to be a fifth wheel?" Rick was looking around for the last traveler to arrive. The loudspeaker blared out a boarding call as the two new couples walked over.
"Oh great," Nina murmured, "I don't want to handle this now, I'm going to board." Rick looked at her pleadingly but she started for the door. He looked at Christian and shrugged his shoulders.
"What can I say, she's mine and I love her!" Christian chuckled. Harry, Tal and their partners had reached Christian and Rick.
"Christian, Rick, this is Marie." Harry announced. Marie shook both of their hands, smiling.
"And this," Tal wrapped his arm around the girl standing next to him, "is Jane." She also shook the boys hands, smiling.
"Our friend should be along any minute. She went to get some magazines for the flight." Jane told them in a thick French accent. Rick apologized but he wanted to board the plane and find Nina. Harry told Marie and Jane that Nina was Rick's girlfriend.
"And yours?" Marie looked at Christian. He stared back at her blankly.
"Mine?" He asked, picking up his duffel bag.
"Your girlfriend? Is she waiting for you too?" Marie inquired. Christian blushed, smiling half heartedly, his thoughts on Satine.
"No, I don't have a…" Christian turned as he heard a voice calling out. Jane squealed and waved her hand at a young woman who was making her way over. Christian felt weak. In front of his eyes was Satine, only dressed in modern clothes.
"Christian, this is Satine." Christian couldn't believe his ears. She held out her hand to shake his, and on her finger was a small silver ring with a red stone in the middle. Christian fought back tears as he took her hand in his.
"It's a pleasure to meet you Christian, we have a lot of catching up to do." She spoke, her velvet voice transporting him through time. He smiled back at her, nodding yes. Harry chuckled and Tal gave Christian a little nudge.
"Come on, you can drool in the plane, we have to get on." Tal whispered to him. Christian shook his head, trying to clear it. Harry and Marie, Tal and Jane all began to board. Christian laughed at himself and held out his arm for Satine.
"I'm sorry for my look of shock, you just…I mean…I feel like…" He stumbled over his words. Satine laughed and took his arm, walking along side him.
"You don't need to apologize, I only wished we had been able to meet earlier this summer." She looked into his eyes, their familiar warmth spilling into her. "You see, I've been having these dreams all my life…" Christian was shocked as she leaned over and kissed him softly on the lips. "But now you're here, you've come back to me." It took a moment as Christians brain tried to reason out what was happening but as he looked at her all his questions melted away. He laughed for joy as he embraced her tightly.
"And you to me," He looked into her eyes, knowing the love that laid beyond them, come what may, "forever."
And that's it…that's all…no more….go now…bye….why are you still here?? Ohhhhhh….you want to write a review???? YEA!!!!! Thanks for those who have already written, and all the support!! Woo hoo!!! Until my brain sparks another electrode….
