When Marie heard how the reunion between Ty and Amy went she called him and suggested "You and Amy need time together. Jess and I can handle things here today."

Thanking her Ty turned to Amy and asked "What exactly has been going on back in Hudson?"

"Dad and grandpa helped me get settled in our place. I tried to make it a home but without you there it just wasn't a real home."

Ty looked at Amy and immediately recognized the sincerity in what she was saying

"I, or should I say we, adopted a dog, Fern." Scott introduced us and I just could not say no."

"Jack told me Ahmed has left Hudson and returned to his own country."

Amy smiled and happily announced "That has allowed me to do what I have always wanted to do—work with abused and abandoned horses. We have also adopted an orphan foal, Bindi and an abandoned mare, Babuska. Fortunately the mare has adopted the foal."

"How about you?" Amy questioned Ty.

Just the Jack stuck his head in the room and asked "How are things going?"

Ty looked at his wife and saw a tear running down her cheek.

"Why the tears?"

Amy, with a worried look on her face, responded "I am afraid you may want to stay here and not return to Hudson."

With a smile on his face Ty took Amy into his arms and said "Marie may have to get a new vet assistant. I'll be returning with you to Hudson."

Ty and Amy spent the rest of the day discussing their plans for the future. "I should call Scott and see if I can have my old job back." Ty reasoned. "I should also call the university to see when the next semester starts."

Amy added "Our plan has always been to work together. Perhaps we can still realize that dream."

Ty placed Amy in a deep embrace and whispered "This is the Amy I knew so long ago."

Ty was all excited after talking the the university. "Next semester start in two weeks. After that I'll be graduating and you can call me Dr. Borden."

Since it was still early in the day Jack decided to head back to Heartland.

"Amy and I will follow tomorrow." Ty explained.
