Ash could barely contain himself, Mary-Lynnette was finnaly with him. They were together again, at last.
He grinned as he thought of how well she had fitted in at the mansion. How at home she had felt straight away.
He knew it had been hard for her, moving away from her family for the first time. What with the millenium coming in a year he wanted to be with her as much as he could. When she had been selected at a presigious near by Univercity it had seemed like the right thing to do. And it had been.
He laughed at something Maggie had said, not hearing what it was. With Mary-Lynnette beside him he was content to just think.
He thought of all the women who had casually strutted up to his room , now he thought with a jolt his and Mary-Lynnettes, in the past year. How he had turned them away without so much as thinking.
Their shallow beauty could and would never replace Mary-Lynnette's hell they couldn't even compete.
He felt Mary-Lynnette's hand softly stroke he cheek as she brought him back into to the world. Ash turned to Quinn who was now talking and smiled. Hell everything is perfect, he thought as the six companions, himself and Mary-Lynnette, Maggie and her soulmate Delos, and Quinn and his soulmate Rashel got up and headed for the door.
