Baby was frozen with shock. She couldn't move a muscle. Of all the times she needed to duck and run she couldn't. All she could do was just stand there and watch everyone go nuts to see Johnny walk back into the life of Kellerman's. Why did he tell her he was coming?

"That is one fool who would be thrilled to see you." Billy said as he pulled back with him. "Let's go say hello."

Baby stopped Billy dead in his tracks. "I can't."

"Sure you can." Billy told her.

"Billy, you don't understand. I really can't." Baby said as she searched for an alternate exit.

"Lover-boy is here." Penny said as she poked Baby in the side.

"Look, ya'll I have to get going. I will see you guys around tomorrow." Baby said as she noticed a side door to her left.

As she reached the door she took on look back to see Johnny hugging everyone and giving some a high five. She had come here to get away from everything but it always seems to catch up with her.

As she made it outside she took a deep breath. Her past always seemed to follow her wherever she went and she was about tired of it. She was tired of hurting over Johnny. Life had to go on and she was bound and determined now was the time to let him go.

Tears she couldn't stop though. How can you love someone so much and just end up being in tears? She had to learn to be strong. She has always been in the past so what was stopping her now. Baby knew the reason.

Baby made it to the lake where she just had to let out a scream of frustration.

"Baby." She heard those words coming form behind her but she didn't want to even turn around when she realized whose voice it was. "I saw you dart out up there."

"Please, can I be alone?" Baby turned around and asked Johnny.

"I just want to talk to you for a minute." Johnny said as she approached Baby. "Why did you dart out?"

"Like you don't know." Baby smarted off at Johnny.

"Baby please don't be rude to me." Johnny said as he motioned for Baby to sit down in a lawn chair.

"I don't want to sit down." Baby turned and faced out toward the lake again.

"Okay." Johnny started. "I guess you're surprised to see me here huh?"

"You could say that." Baby said wiping the tears from her eyes where Johnny couldn't see.

"Look Baby I don't know what to say." Johnny confided in her.

"Then don't say anything." Baby turned to him. "I can't keep running into to you like this."

Baby watched Johnny begin to fidget. "You can't be around me huh?"

Baby shook her head no as she walked up to Johnny. "Don't you see how it kills me to see you and not be able to hug you or kiss you? I just can't take it."

Johnny looked toward the ground. "I don't mean to make you uncomfortable."

"Johnny it's not that you make me uncomfortable. I just can't do this to myself anymore." Baby said now not hiding her tears.

"Do what Baby?" He asked her as she walked closer to her.

"This!" Baby said as she backed away from him. "I can't be so close to you and smell you. I am flipping out. I can't stand it."

"You think it is easy for me?" Johnny asked her.

Baby got a little perturbed tone in her voice. "Oh it must be."

"How can you say that?" Johnny tried to approach Baby again.

"Let's just avoid each other while I am here. I will be leaving Sunday." She told him.

"Baby don't be this way." Johnny pleaded.

"I am going to go out on a limb here and say what I have wanted to say." Baby turned to him one again. "For nine years you have been all I have thought about. I did try and put you out of my mind but somehow you seemed to flow into it. You were like a bad penny you just kept showing up."

"Well, thanks." Johnny said with a hurtful tone.

"I didn't mean it like that. I just meant you were always with me. After seeing you again and my feeling were rekindled I know now that I can never love another like you, ever." Baby told him as the tears came steady now. "I just love you so much and it kills me not being able to be with you."

Baby watched Johnny's expression change as his eyes dove into hers. "I didn't know you felt that strongly for me."

"How could you not know? It is written all over my face." Baby released a little smile then. "Sad thing was I thought you felt the same way."

"You can't imagine how I feel." Johnny told her as he smiled himself. "Seeing you again just flew me for a loop."

"I just didn't understand how you could just drop me like that. You know now I didn't stand you up and lie to you. You also know that Patrick just made a mistake by kissing me." Baby thought of Amanda. "I was just going through a rough time."

"I know you were." Johnny told her. "I just freaked when I saw you and Patrick kissing."

"I understand that. But, when I explained everything and even when Patrick explained everything, why did you still come and see me just to tell me again it was over?" Baby asked really waiting for this answer.

Johnny paused as he looked toward the lake. "I really don't know why I came and saw you."

"Well, look, I can't handle anymore pain or stress. I just lost one of the most important people in my life. When I needed you the most you weren't there." Baby told him. "So, please let's not talk again while I am here. A clean break is what we need. It is obvious how you feel and that is fine. I will not keep myself hung up over this."

Johnny nodded his head because he knew Baby meant business. "If that is what you want you got it."

Baby smiled at Johnny as she walked over to him and gave him a kiss on his lips. As she did that he slipped his arms around her waist and held on to her tight and made her short kiss turn into a long one.

"Goodbye." Baby said as she pulled herself from his embrace. "I will always love you Johnny Castle."

And with that Baby turned away from him and headed to her cabin. She felt better now because she had put everything on the line for him. She said she was ready to let go and now all she had to do was prove it. It would just take one day at a time with tears and fears but she knew she could pull it off once and for all.
