Summary: Chris Benoit is happy and retired. Or so he thinks.

Author's note: I think I've been talking to you too much Jules. Sounds more like your cup of tea.

Chris Benoit looked out his window, at Ashley Glen in Peachtree City Georgia, watching his wife Nancy walk up the driveway. She had Perry Saturn with her. He smiled. He was glad to see them.

He felt good for a sixty-five year old. With the Alzheimer's he had trouble remembering things. And he quite liked living at Ashley Glen even though he wished Nancy came more often.

Nancy came into the room and greeted him with a hug and a kiss. "I've missed you! How are you doing Chris?"

"Better now that you're here. Hey Perry."

"Hey Chris. You are looking good. Medicine working?"

"Yeah. I haven't had any problem remembering recent stuff. I just have trouble remembering the last twenty five years or so."

"Well the doctor said you just need to take it one step at a time. Oh!" Nancy said. "This is from Paula." She said handing him a picture.

Chris looked at the picture. "This is nice. When is Paula going to see me? I want to see my grandchildren."

"Oh Daniel and Terry think it's better not to bring the grandkids to this place. They are a bit too young to understand."

"Are they going to come and visit me?" Chris asked. The only visitors he remembered ever coming to see him were Perry and Nancy.

"They live in Vancouver Washington Chris. It's hard for them to come all the way to Georgia. They had mailed the picture."

"You liking it here?" Perry asked quickly.

"Yeah. Though I don't feel sixty-five."

"Hey you are only as old as you feel right Nancy?"

"Yes that's what they say."

They talked for awhile before the nurse came in to administer the pills. Chris found Nancy's shawl and went out to give it to her when he froze. He could hear them talking.

"He's asking so many questions Perry." His wife said. "What if someone there slips up? What if he finds out about this?"

"Don't worry Nancy." Perry put his arms around her. "You know why he's here. We have to keep him here."

Nancy was cheating on him with one of his close friends! Chris realized. He started to walk up to them but what Nancy said next shocked him.

"Come on. I need to get home. It's Daniel's sixth birthday. Imagine twenty screaming children! Chris may be the lucky one after all."
