Chapter 4

"Have you been to see them yet" asked Monica, "Yes I saw them this morning, they are feeling a bit better, anyway are you husband and wife?" asked Cherilyn "Um...No were friends" smiled Monica, "Oh, you seem to be to close to be just friends, you would make a great couple" she smiled.

Another customer walked in "Excuse Me," said Cherilyn. Monica looked at Andrew "Come on let's go". "Bye" they both shouted as they walked out.

At the beach they sat on the rocks and watched the children play in the sea. "You know, I've been thinking..." she stopped the sentence "Thinking what?" asked Andrew "never mind" she sighed.

They got up and started walking along the beach, not saying anything. "Monica, is something wrong?" Andrew asked her "Well...yes, I have been thinking about what Cherilyn said" she replied "what did she say?" asked Andrew "that we would make a great couple" she smiled. "Ok I admit, I've been thinking that about that a lot too", he said, "We need to talk about this".

They finally found a bench and sat down. "Ok what are we going to do?" asked Monica "We love each other, but I don't think angels are supposed to feel like that". "I know, but we can't be happy without each other," replied Andrew. "And what about Tess?" she asked, "If we were a couple, we couldn't hide it from Tess, and if she found out she would go ballistic". "We would tell her when she is in a good mood" he smiled.

"OK" replied Monica, "I know that we are angels but if we love each other there's not much anyone can do about it" assured Andrew holding her hand. Monica looked at him and smiled.

"Do you want another coffee?" asked Andrew "Yes, but there is nowhere here to buy coffee" she replied "OK well go into town to get one then". They walked for almost two hours before coming to a coffee shop. After ordering they sat at a table away from everyone so they could talk "Monica, Are you happy?" Andrew asked "Yes" she replied, "I love you" she whispered.

Once they had finished their coffee, they went back to the caravan. "Tess still isn't back," exclaimed Monica "Don't worry, I'm, sure she will be back soon" he replied.

It was now 8:30pm, three hours after they had arrived home "Andrew, it's getting late," sighed Monica, "Come on lets go to a restaurant," he said smiling.

Once they had got to town Monica asked him "Do you know where any restaurants are", "Um...well...no" he replied laughing "but I'm sure we'll find one". After what seemed like hours they found one, it wasn't exactly big, but it would do.

They ordered their food and drinks, and sat outside. After a while a waiter came out "Would you like any deserts?" he asked "No it's ok", replied Andrew.

Andrew came and sat next to Monica and out his arm around her "Are you Ok" he asked, "Yes I'm fine" she replied gazing into his eyes. He pulled her towards him and as their lips touched, they both realised that this just felt right. They wished that this moment would never end.

As they moved apart they heard a voice they could not mistake. "Tess!!!" they both exclaimed.
