I'm back with the final chapter of Jealous Heart. It is short, because it just sums everything up. I hope you enjoy it.

A Diary Entry
Dear Diary,
It has been almost two seasons since Claire and Gray's wedding, and a season since I discovered that Cliff loves me, and that I love him. Goddess, I still find it hard to write the word 'love'. I didn't think I'd ever fall in love with anyone other than Gray, and now here I am, in love with Cliff.
The fact that I am in love with Cliff makes it even stranger. In a matter of weeks we have gone from barely knowing each other exist, to being in love with each other. Love is the strangest thing.
About two weeks after Claire's wedding, Cliff asked me out. We went on a proper date. We had dinner at the inn, and then went for a walk at the beach. We talked about ourselves and our lives before we had met. I felt like I was doing most of the talking, but Cliff didn't mind. He's actually a really good listener.
It's getting less awkward between us. We find it a lot easier to talk to each other and we're a lot more open. Of course, sometimes we do have those awkward moments of silence, but not many.
Oh, and Claire is pregnant! She's really excited. She's been pregnant for about two weeks now. Elli said that it is probably going to be a girl. Claire wants to name her after me! She says she wants to name it Maria. I didn't know why she'd want to name her baby after me, but when I asked her she said, "Mary, you're my best friend, and I know how much it hurt you to see me with Gray, and I am so sorry for that. I talked it over with Gray, and he agrees that Maria is a great name."
She didn't tell Gray I used to like him, only that she thought Maria was a nice name, and that I am her closest friend. Gray totally agreed.
Claire has been coming to the library more often and Gray is still a regular visitor. I finished the novel I was writing, and Claire and Gray both think it's really good. I'm going to publish it. I'm so excited.
My friendship with Claire went from best friends, to worst enemies, and now we're better friends than ever. I don't know what I'd do without her.
And what will happen next? Only time can tell.
Sincerely,
Mary
