When Kena finally arrived back home after multiple conversations with her coworkers about that scene by the front desk, it was to the sight of Tyr sitting on her front step, looking like Christmas Dinner after a long, hard day in the mines. He stood up slowly, giving his woman time to look her fill. Once she caught herself staring, she turned away from him. Tyr only chuckled, in his element. If she truly desired a divorce of him, he would grant it. It was the least he could do after all the pain he'd caused her. But she would have to work to convince him that it was truly over between them. He walked up to her frozen form, placing his hands on her tense shoulders. He wasn't surprised when she knocked his hands away. She'd always been sensitive to his touch.

"Where's your entourage?" she bit out.

"No cameras. No interfering chefs. No one is here but you and me," he said, turning her to face him. She let him; he was surprised. "I'm so sorry, Bl-Makena Anasazi. I've hurt you so much for so long… I'll never be sorry enough for all the times I've betrayed your trust these last three years. You were right; I shouldn't have downplayed your dreams just because I'd discovered mine."

"That's just the chef talking," she said in a harsh tone, pulling away from him. He walked around her till they were facing each other again and lifted her chin to see her beautiful brown eyes filled with tears that she was valiantly fighting to hold back.

"Yes, Chef Ramsey opened my eyes, Bliss, but the words are all mine. You know me better than that."

"Stop calling me-"

"I want to be the man worthy of calling you 'Bliss' again. A simple apology won't begin to fix what I've broken, but it's a start. I won't give up on you."

"I will not work in your stupid restaurant!"

"No, you won't," he agreed with her. "You're a nurse through and through. You are excellent at organizing and your Expediting skills are exceptional, but you were meant to be a nurse. After tonight, I finally get it. You were never walking away from me by pursuing your dream. You were inviting me to travel with you as you grew and changed. You were giving me the opportunity to share my life with you without taking yours over. I failed you so miserably, Bliss." Two tears fell down her cheeks. She wasn't trying to turn away in his arms anymore.

"And what happens when you get it in your head to go after another dream and drag me into it again?" He was already shaking his head, wiping her tears away with his thumbs.

"I will never put my wants ahead of your heart again, Bliss," he vowed to her. "As your husband, I want your happiness. I was just going about it the wrong way. I may be stubborn, but I'm not stupidly stubborn. You're more important to me than anything. And you need to understand that, more than anything else I could say to you tonight." More tears were falling from her eyes, he could no longer contain them with his thumbs. He leaned down slowly to kiss her as he hadn't been able to do in years. He gave her plenty of time to push him away, but she only leaned into his touch, those silent tears of hers tearing at his heart. His lips touched hers and her knees buckled. He chuckled at that, holding her in his arms as he remembered her reaction to their first kiss. Holding the woman in his arms as he took his time caressing her mouth with his, he picked her up off her feet and headed into the house. He had three years of torture and neglect to make up for.

"That's a wrap," Chef Ramsey said when the camerawoman went to knock on the door and get more footage.

"So, it's going to be an open ending?" Jessica asked, putting her camera down from where she'd taped their final confrontation. There'd been no sound, but their body language had said it all. It was actually kinda sweet the way he'd literally swept her off her feet in the end. She really hoped that they could work things out.

"I think this is the best place to leave this episode. It's emotionally charged and gripping. And it'll make a great cliffhanger ending for the follow-up next year. I need to talk to someone about sending my wife some flowers. This episode has taught me not to take her for granted."

"Aww!" the woman laughed, starting the car to drive away.


And there you have it! A full episode of Kitchen Nightmares done by yours truly! Now, for those of you that remember the series, there was a segment known as "Revisited" where Chef Ramsey would come back a year later after the episodes and see if the people that he'd helped 'turned their restaurant back into a nightmare'. It was also a fun way to see what happened to the restaurants. And yes, I made a follow-up episode for this episode.

Wanna see it? Join me next week, my dudes! ^_^ Do me a favor and drop a comment to let me know what you think, okay? It's hard to write in a vacuum, you know? See ya next time! ^_~
