I'm Yours

Chapter 14: Aloha!

"I am sad to go," Lily said, looking out their balcony. It was time to catch their flight in a couple hours. Their bags were already packed, and waiting by the door downstairs.

Rufus came up behind her, and wrapped his arms around her. "I am too, but it will feel good to be back home again, and to see the kids again as well."

Lily sighed. "I suppose."

Rufus kissed the side of her neck. "Don't worry. We promised to go on at least one trip a year. Remember? I intend on keeping that promise."

Lily looked back at him. "Where should we go next? It might help me not to feel sad if we have another trip planned."

"Well, where would you like to go?" Rufus asked.

Lily thought about it for a moment. Australia? If we love Hawaii, which we do, we'll probably adore Australia."

"Sounds fun!" Rufus agreed.

"Or, there's Italy. We could go to Rome, or Tuscany, or—"

Rufus cut Lily off. "Anywhere you want to go is fine by me as long as we're together."

In response, Lily turned around, and took his face between his hands, then kissed him passionately. "I love you," she said with a smile after breaking the kiss.

Rufus smiled too. "I love you too. In fact, I have more love for you in my heart than I ever knew my heart could hold."

Lily grinned. "You get another kiss for that!" She kissed him again.

He moaned into the kiss. "What would I have to say to get a little more?"

She broke the kiss. "We have to be at the airport in an hour."

Rufus shrugged. "We have an hour to get there, and it's only ten minutes from here. Besides, our bags are already packed and by the door."

"I know you're not going to let up until I give you what you want, so all right. But if you make us late again..." Lily trailed off.

"We'd have to stay in Hawaii an extra day," Rufus finished for her. "It's basically a win/win either way."

Lily nodded. "True." She then giggled as Rufus swooped her up like a hawk swooping up his prey.

"What am I going to do with you?" she asked.

Rufus shrugged. "That's up to you. However, if you want to talk about what I'm going to do to you... Well, let's just say I'd rather show you."

Lily giggled again, and he threw her down onto the bed. Then, he began to show her exactly what he had in mind.

"I can't believe we have to sit on a plane for twelve and a half hours again," Lily grumbled as they made their way into the airport terminal.

"I can't believe we have to sit in coach once we get to San Fran," Rufus grumbled. He had tried to upgrade their tickets to first class, and succeeded for their flight from Hawaii to San Fran, but first class was booked once they got to San Francisco.

Lily sighed. "I know, it sucks, but at lest we have first class part of the way. If we survived twelve and a half total flying hours from New York to Hawaii, we can certainly survive it for the last five and a half hours."

Rufus sighed too. "I suppose you're right. I just wish I hadn't been so cheap to begin with. If I hadn't, we could have had first class all the way to Maui, and back to New York."

Lily shrugged. "You never know, they might have been booked then too. And, as far as you being cheap, you had good intentions."

Rufus nodded. "I did."

Lily pulled him close and kissed him.

Rufus placed his hands over her waist and kissed her too. He nuzzled his nose with hers. "I really do love you, you know."

She smiled, and nuzzled his nose with her own in return. "And I love you!"

They rested their foreheads together and grinned.

Lily then pulled apart from him. "I'm starved. I hope they serve something good for breakfast on the plane. Are you hungry?"

Rufus nodded. "You know me and food—I'm always hungry!" He rubbed his stomach for emphasis. "I wish they'd make waffles."

"No one makes them as good as you do anyway," Lily stated.

Rufus nodded. "True."

They both laughed.

Their flight got called then, so they both stood up and sighed.

"Goodbye, Hawaii," Lily said sadly.

"We'll visit again one day," Rufus assured her as they grabbed their bags, and headed to board the plane.

Lily smiled. "I'm going to hold you to that!" She said with a wink.

Rufus laughed. "Oh, I know you will. But next time, you plan it!"

"Good idea," Lily quipped.

Rufus stuck his tongue out at her.

"I saw that!" Lily said.

"What? How? Your back is turned toward me!" Rufus said, for she was standing in line in front of him.

"I'm your wife. It's my job to see all," Lily said simply.

"Creepy," Rufus said under his breath.

"And hear all," Lily stated.

Rufus decided to just keep his mouth shut until they were on the plane. It was for his own health, he knew.

"Ah! I can already tell this flight is going to be so much better than it was on the way here," Lily stated once they were comfortably seated in their seats on the plane.

Rufus smirked. "That is the whole idea of first class, Lil."

"Shut up, Rufus," Lily grumbled. She grinned, and gently pat his hand to show she was only teasing.

"And kiss you?" Rufus asked, an eyebrow raised.

Lily smiled, and gently stroked his right cheek with the back of her left hand. "That could work."

Rufus' eyes lowered, as did Lily's, and they kissed.

After a short while, the plane took off.

Rufus and Lily held hands as they ascended, and relaxed once the pilot announced they had reached their height destination.

A stewardess came around then to take their breakfast and drink orders.

Rufus was very pleased to hear that waffles was indeed a choice. He and Lily both ordered the same thing—waffles, eggs, hash browns, strawberry yogurt, and orange juice.

They didn't even have to wait long for their breakfast before it arrived.

"Mm, now this is the life!" Rufus said as he devoured his waffles.

Lily nodded. "They are good too! Of course, not as good as when you make them, but good nonetheless."

Rufus grinned, and kissed her. "That's one of the things I love best about you—you love my cooking. Well, that and the fact that you can't cook yourself, so I get to cook all the time!"

"I should be offended by that second part, but I know it's true, so I'll let it go," Lily stated.

Rufus grinned, and took another bite of waffles.

A little while later, they finished their breakfast, and the stewardess took their food away from them.

"So, what should we do now?" Lily asked. "We have too many hours on this plane."

"At least that's all the more hour we don't have coach," Rufus quipped.

Lily nodded. "Good point."

"Do you think the kids will be happy to see us?" Rufus asked.

Lily sighed. "I hope so. You know our children. It's a coin toss with them."

Rufus snickered. "True."

Lily placed a hand over Rufus' arm then, her eyes lighting up. "I thought of a weekend trip we could do!"

Rufus grinned at her, and winked. "What's that?"

"Well, how about we go to Boston and see our son?" she asked. "We can give him his gifts then!"

Rufus grinned widely. "That sounds like a good idea! Of course, I still want him to come down and see us sometime soon, but, going to see him isn't half bad either. I'm glad his adoptive parents are at least warming to the idea of him seeing us more now that they know we aren't going to kidnap him or turn him against them." He smirked.

Lily smirked as well. "Ha! Yeah, thank God for that! I'm telling you though, if they didn't let us see him, it might have come down to that!" she joked.

Rufus laughed. "I hear ya!"

They talked a little bit more about Scott, then Lily took out her book, and began to read. Rufus was feeling a little tired from having gotten up so early, so, he reclined his chair a bit, then took his travel pillow and blanket, curled up, and dosed off.

When Rufus woke up, it was lunchtime.

"How long did I sleep?" he asked Lily after they had ordered their lunch—a garden salad with Italian dressing (Ranch for Lily), and a turkey and cheese sandwich on white with mayonnaise (wheat bread for lily and light mayonnaise).

Lily smiled. "You slept for three hours! You looked so peaceful, I didn't want to wake you."

"Well, you could have. Waking up to your beautiful face is never a bad thing," Rufus said.

Lily smiled, and kissed him for that.

Their food and drinks came then. Lily had ordered a pink lemonade to go with her lunch, and Rufus had ordered a Pepsi to go with his.

"You know, plane food isn't all that bad," Rufus said as he ate his sandwich.

Lily nodded as she munched on her salad. "You're right," she said after she swallowed, "So far, they've fed us some pretty good stuff!"

"At least, since I slept three hours, and since we had been flying for an hour before that, we only have three more hours left," Rufus commented as he dug into his salad.

Lily nodded. "We'll get to San Fran around four o'clock! Unfortunately, we then have five and a half hours of coach."

"Ugh! Let's not think of that," Rufus grumbled.

They are their lunch, and talked about their favorite moments of their trip.

"My heart is still recovering from that helicopter tour," Rufus said.

"Mine too. That submarine didn't help matters either. I was getting that claustrophobic feeling. I didn't even know I was claustrophobic!" Lily said.

Rufus smirked. "Our tour guide sure calmed you down. What was his name again?"

"Keanu. I remember it because it's like Keanu Reeves," Lily said.

"And because he was hot," Rufus teased.

Lily blushed. "That too. Like you weren't looking at all the beautiful Hawaiian girls!"

Rufus laughed, and held his hands up in defense. "I didn't say a word! Besides..." He gently stroked Lily's cheek. "I have a wife who is far prettier than any of those silly Hawaiian girls."

Lily smiled and blushed. "And I have a husband who is far sexier than Keanu and Keanu Reeves combined."

They kissed, then broke apart to finish their lunch. After lunch, they ordered some key lime pie for dessert. They both got milk to go with their pie. Then, after their pie, and after all their trash was taken away, Rufus got an idea.

"You know," he murmured quietly in Lily's ear, "the bathrooms in first class are far bigger than they are in coach."

Lily raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Do you have to go?"

Rufus grinned at her coyness. "No, but I figured that maybe we could give what we planned on doing on the way here another try."

Lily grinned at him. "What did we plan on doing here?"

Rufus knew she knew exactly what he meant. "You know, I'm much better at showing than telling. Why don't you let me take you back there and refresh your memory?"

Lily grinned, and took his hand. "I thought you'd never ask!"

Rufus grinned too, and started to get up.

Lily pulled back her hand. "You got first. I'll go back a minute later. I don't want to make it obvious."

Rufus smirked at his wife's shyness. "All right." So, he headed back, hardly able to wait to make love to his beautiful wife from thousands of miles in the air.

"Look at this! It's like a bed. It's almost as if they knew we were coming...or about to." Rufus smirked and winked.

Lily gently pushed him. "Way to keep things romantic!" she said sarcastically.

"You know I love you," Rufus told her, pulling her close, and kissing her.

"We have to make this quiet and quick. I don't want anyone knowing what we're doing!" Lily said as she unbuttoned her jeans.

Rufus nodded. "Of course!" He undid his button, then pulled down his zipper, and slipped his pants and underwear down together.

Lily had unzipped her zipper, and now followed suit with her pants and underwear. She slipped off her socks and shoes, and then stepped out of her pants.

Rufus took his socks, shoes, and pants off as well, then pulled his shirt off.

Lily was going to pull her shirt off, but Rufus did it for her before she could get to it. He then unlatched her bra, and slipped it off her shoulders, and to the floor.

She lay down on the long bench that did look like it could be made for what they were about to do.

Rufus climbed on top of her and kissed her passionately on the lips. "I love you," he whispered.

"I love you too," she whispered back.

He placed her legs around his waist and kissed her breasts, then made love to her.

Lily closed her eyes, and enjoyed the feel of being so close with her husband. She quietly sighed in pleasure, not wanting to moan and therefore alert anyone to what they were doing. She was just glad that there was another bathroom in first class so that they didn't have to worry about holding anyone up.

"You are so beautiful," Rufus murmured as he gently kiss every inch of her body.

Lily gently brushed some hair out of his eyes. "And you are so handsome and sexy. I love you more than I ever thought possible."

His eyes lowered. "I love you more than I ever thought possible too."

They kissed some more, and continued to make love, their love for each other growing by the second.

The rest of their flight from Maui to San Francisco was relaxing. Their love making had been so romantic and perfect, and they felt so satisfied and relaxed after. They had kissed for several moments afterward. Then, they got up and dressed.

Rufus headed back to their seats first, then Lily headed back a minute or so after him. They both had avoided eye contact with the other passengers, so, whether or not the other passengers had known what they had done, they had no idea.

They talked, looked over their magazines and books, and had one cocktail each while they flew.

Then, they arrived at the San Francisco airport, and got off the plane so that they could transfer to their flight home. They had an hour and forty-four minutes delay, which they used to just get a drink, and relax in the airport lounge.

It was time to board their next plane in hardly any time at all, and soon, they wereon their plane, sitting in their coach seats.

"Yuck! It really makes you see how bad coach really is after coming from first class," Lily griped.

"These seats are so uncomfortable! How did we go all the way from New York to Maui in coach?" Rufus asked, trying to adjust comfortably to his seat, which, after sitting in a plush recliner in first class, now felt like an electric chair.

Lily sighed. "I guess it didn't seem as bad at the time because we hadn't just come from first class. Oh well. It's only five an a half hours. We'll survive."

A mother and her son came on the plane then. The son was a cute kid. He looked to be no more than ten. He reminded Rufus of Dan at that age.

Rufus smiled at the child, who, in return, stuck his tongue out at him.

He certainly didn't have Dan's manners, Rufus realized.

The mother and the kid sat behind them. The kid wanted the window seat of course, so that meant he was right behind Rufus.

"That kid is a brat. He stuck his tongue out at me when I smiled at him," Rufus muttered into Lily's ear.

Lily laughed. "You know how children are. They can't all be sweet, little, innocent angels."

"I believe it!" Rufus said.

The plane took off ten minutes later, and, before they knew it, they had reached their height destination, and were free to roam around.

"That coffee I had at the airport made me have to go. I'll be right back," Rufus said to Lily.

Lily, who was reading her magazine, nodded. "Mh hm."

Rufus smiled, and shook his head. She was always in another world when reading her magazines and books.

He headed to the bathroom, and realized it was occupied. "How did someone get in there so fast? We were only just allowed to get up!" he muttered to himself. He looked at the other bathroom, but someone had just slipped into it. "Thanks a lot, Buddy! Can't you see someone was already waiting?" he grumbled after the man disappeared into the bathroom.

He waited for a good five minutes, and was just about to go sit back down and wait, when the boy that stuck his tongue out at him came out of the bathroom. He grinned wickedly at Rufus.

"I hope you like the smell!" the boy said. "Cuz I just left a little deposit!" He laughed, then took off to his seat.

"Great! Just great!" Rufus grumbled. He looked to the other bathroom just in time to see a girl slip into it now. "Even greater!" Rufus said sarcastically, throwing his hands in the air in defeat.

He would have waited for the other bathroom, but, seeing as the girl had just went in there, he knew he had to used the bathroom that stank. He had to go badly now, and the girl would probably be a bit since she had just went in.

With a sigh, he walked into the bathroom. He almost gagged. "What did that kid eat?" he asked as he locked the door behind him. He was just grateful he didn't have to sit down on the seat.

He quickly took down his pants, and then went to the bathroom as fast as he could. He was breathing through his mouth the whole time. He then pulled up his pants, re-zipped and re-buttoned them, flushed, then washed his hands, and got out of there.

He glanced at the kid on his way back to his seat. The kid saw him, and stuck his tongue out at him again.

Rufus stuck his tongue out in return.

Suddenly, the boy got teary eyed. "Mommy, that man just stuck his tongue out at me!" he said, hanging onto his mother's arm.

Rufus felt his face flush as the mother shot him a dirty look. "I was just trying to make a silly face to make him smile. I'm sorry. I didn't mean it in a nasty way." He knew that lying would be the better way to go instead of the childish, "He did it first!"

The mother's expression softened. "It's all right. He can be a little sensitive sometimes."

Rufus smiled. "Thank you," he said before taking his seat.

"What did you do?" Lily asked, giving him the look.

Rufus crossed his arms over his chest. "He stuck his out at me first! Twice if you could his arrival onto the plane."

Lily rolled her eyes and shook her head, then went back to her reading.

Rufus sighed, then pulled out his magazine. He had just started to read it when the kid started kicking his seat—hard.

"Jackson, stop that!" his mother scolded.

The boy stopped kicking the seat.

Rufus let out a relieved sigh, and went back to his reading. Less than thirty seconds into it, he felt his seat being jerked forward again.

"Jackson!" the boy's mother scolded from behind them.

"You said I couldn't kick! You said nothing about punching," Jackson stated.

"I shouldn't have had to! Just don't do it!" his mother snapped. "Either of them!"

Rufus was about to relax with his magazine again, but then felt his seat being kicked again.

"Jackson..." His mother sounded like she was getting tired of fighting him.

"I'm just kicking to the beat of my music. Is it wrong to enjoy my music now?" the kid asked.

His mother sighed. "I'm tired of arguing with you. Do what you want."

And so, the kid continued to kick the back of Rufus' seat.

Rufus was willing to bet money on it that the beat of the kid's music had nothing to do with it. The kid was just a brat who thought it would be fun to annoy him.

Kick. Kick. Kick.

Rufus sighed. It was going to be a long flight.

Jackson finally gave up on kicking Rufus' seat. Rufus figured he might be asleep since he didn't hear him, or even his mother talking to him. However, he was too afraid too turn around and look in case it woke him up if he was indeed sleeping.

At dinner, Jackson had woken of course, and had thrown his food at Rufus, and then, when Rufus turned around and snapped at him, no longer able to take it any longer, the kid cried until it looked like he was the victim, and Rufus was the villain.

After dinner, the kid kept kicking Rufus' seat again.

Lily offered to switch with Rufus so that he didn't have to deal with the kicking any longer. She said she didn't mind. She was willing to take some of the seat kicking if it kept his sanity.

So, they switched. And then, Jackson told his mother he was sick of sitting by the window, and wanted the aisle seat. His mother switched to shut him up.

Needless to say, Rufus had to endure the seat kicking for the rest of the ride. He knew if he and Lily switched again, the kid would too. There was no outsmarting the little brat.

Needless to say, once the plane had landed, and they were free to go, Rufus bolted off the plane like it was on fire.

"You could have waited for me, you know! I could have used some help getting my carryon bags," Lily said as she stepped off the plane.

"Sorry. I just had to get away from that jerk!" Rufus said, eyeing the kid who was now walking back toward the airport. He saw Rufus, and stuck his tongue out at him one more time.

Rufus contemplated showing the kid a certain finger, but decided to take the high road. The kid would just wine and cry and turn it all on him if he did so anyway. He sighed, then made his way back into the airport with Lily, and they got their bags from the luggage carousel.

"At least they didn't lose our bags," Rufus said.

Lily nodded. "Yeah! I'd be crushed if all our souvenirs were lost."

"I'd be crushed if all your lingerie was lost," Rufus said. "Than again, you wearing nothing can work too."

Lily smirked, and gently pushed him. "Very funny!"

They were just headed out of the airport when they saw the black limo with Chuck's driver, Liam, waiting outside.

Liam nodded at them when he saw them. "Good evening, Mr. and Mrs. Humphrey! Mr. Bass has requested that I pick you two up from the airport and take you home."

Lily and Rufus smiled at each other, and then at Liam.

"Why, thank you, Liam! How nice of you both!" Lily said.

Rufus nodded. "Yeah, thanks, Buddy!" He gently pat Liam's shoulder.

"Just set your bags right there, and I will take care of them," Liam said, nodding to the ground.

Rufus and Lily did as told, then Liam held the door open for them, and shut it behind them.

"I have the best stepson in the world!" Lily said about Chuck with a smile as Liam put their bags in the trunk.

"No need to say the 'step' part since you adopted him," Rufus reminded her with a grin.

Lily grinned, and placed a hand over her husband's left thigh. "True. He's our son then since we're married."

"I'm the step!" Rufus joked. He sighed. "Who would have thought I'd be stepfather to Chuck Bass?

"You're a lucky man!" Lily said.

"I'm lucky because I'm married to you," Rufus stated.

"Come on. Charles grew on you, and you know it!" Lily said, gently nudging him.

Rufus sighed. "I'm still angry with him for taking advantage of my daughter. That wasn't all he took either," he said in reference to the night a heartbroken Chuck and Jenny had slept together, it being Jenny's first time.

"Yeah, well, they both made mistakes that night, but you forgave your daughter, and I forgave my son!" Lily said.

"Well, I suppose he is changing for the better, and it was pretty nice of him to send us Liam and the limo," Rufus said.

Lily smiled, and rested her head on his shoulder. "I'll take it!"

Rufus put his arm around her, and kissed the top of her head.

Liam got back into the limo then, and they were off.

Lily sighed contently. "It will be good to be home."

Rufus gently rubbed her left arm. "Yeah," he agreed. "And away from Jackson the terror."

Lily sighed. "Oh, Rufus!" She giggled anyway.

Rufus grinned too, and kissed the top of her head again.

They arrived at their apartment complex, and headed on up to their apartment.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, Rufus and Lily were greeted with a loud, "Surprise!"

"What's this?" Rufus asked with a grin as he headed into the living room, carrying his bags. He set the bags off to the side.

Lily came in, grinning just as big, and set her bags down next to Rufus'. She noticed the girls were all wearing coconut bras and grass skirts. The guys were shirtless, and wearing grass skirts and well, and they were all wearing leis. Jenny and Eric were there, to her great surprise and joy. "Jenny! Eric!"

Jenny ran to Rufus, and Eric ran to Lily.

"Jenny! I missed you so much!" Rufus said, tears in his eyes.

"I missed you too, Dad. Welcome back!" Jenny said.

"We both heard about the party, and wanted to come home to welcome you both back. I missed you to much, Mom!" Eric said, hugging his mother tighter.

"I missed you too!" Lily hugged her son, and gently stroked his hair. She had tears in her eyes, she was so touched. "I love you."

"I love you too," Eric said.

Jenny and Eric switched parents, and, after their embraces, Serena took a turn at hugging Lily, and then she moved onto Rufus while Chuck and Lily hugged. Chuck then offered his hand to Rufus. Rufus, in return, pulled him into a hug. "Thanks for sending Liam to pick us up."

Chuck smiled. "Anytime."

Lily and Serena broke the hug, and smiled at each other.

"Wow, you guys really went to a lot of work!" Rufus said.

There was a big banner with the words, Welcome Back! We Missed You! written across it.

There was a table with a grass skirt tablecloth on it. The table was full of all different kinds of appetizers and desserts. There was also a variety of drinks on the table as well. Also on the table, there was a row of tiki glasses on the table, plates that were made of plastic and had a beautiful rainforest design on them, and utensils that were multi colored and had tiki men for handles.

The walls were decorated with Hawaiian floral garland.

There was Hawaiian music in the background

"We have a surprise for you," Serena said, gesturing to herself, then her siblings.

"Another surprise? Come on! As if this isn't enough?" Rufus asked, gesturing around the room.

"Trust us, Dad—you guys are going to love this surprise!" Jenny said.

"Come on out!" Serena then yelled.

Rufus and Lily looked toward the direction Serena was looking, and they both gasped when Scott appeared.

"Scott!" the both said, running over to their son and hugging him.

Scott grinned big. "It's been too long, aye?"

"Yes, it has, Mister!" Lily said.

They all laughed, and hugged tighter.

"I had to come see you guys. I had been wanting to come see you, and, when Serena called me to tell me about the family party to welcome you guys back, I knew now was an excellent time to come down!" Scott explained.

"Well, we're glad you did!" Rufus said.

Lily nodded. "Beyond glad!"

"Time for your other surprise!" Jenny called out.

"Other surprise?" Rufus and Lily asked in unison, both of them turning to her and raising an eyebrow in surprise.

"Tada!" Jenny said, holding up a huge cake with Serena. It was white frosted with a beautiful Hawaiian beach theme on it.

"That is so beautiful!" Lily said.

"Yeah, yeah, is it chocolate?" Rufus asked.

"You know it!" Serena winked at him.

"Let's eat!" Rufus said, rubbing his hands together.

"Wait! I have to get a picture first!" Lily said.

Rufus rolled his eyes. "Hurry up! My stomach does not want to wait!"

Lily rolled her eyes too, then went to get her camera. She found it, then took a picture of the cake.

Lily then whispered something to Serena.

Serena smiled, a confused look on her face. "Okay..."

Lily then grabbed Rufus. "Let's get a picture together in front of the banner."

Rufus nodded, and posed next to Lily. He took a big bite of his cake, then put an arm around Lily.

"Say, Howie and Jackson!" Serena said, upon Lily's whispered orders.

The picture Serena got was of Lily laughing, and Rufus choking on his cake.

After Rufus managed to get his cake down, and Lily was able to stop laughing, they had a great time at the party. Lily explained to Rufus that she had told Serena to say that. Then, everyone sat down together in the living room while Rufus and Lily told about their trip. They told everything they could remember except for their romantic escapades of course. Everyone found their misfortunes hilarious.

"I wish I could have seen the looks on your faces when you thought you were going to crash and die!" Eric said.

"Or on Mom's face when she got claustrophobic in the submarine," Serena said.

"And when you guys realized you missed the boat back!" Dan chimed in. Rufus and Lily had just told them about falling asleep. They had left the lovemaking part out so as not to traumatize him and his siblings.

"I would have loved to see the look on Lily's face when she came out of the bathroom sick and saw Rufus dancing with another woman!" Chuck said,

Everyone laughed—even Lily and Rufus.

Scott nodded at Rufus. "I just want to see the look on your face when Howie smacked you with his tail!"

Everyone but Rufus burst into laughter. "Hardy Ha, ha!" Rufus said, unamused.

"I myself would have kicked that Jackson kid all the way to the bathroom, then forced his head down the toilet for a swirly," Jenny stated.

"I should have!" Rufus said. "Sadly, people frown upon doing that kind of stuff to kids even if they deserve it."

Jenny smirked.

"We got you presents!" Lily said suddenly.

Everyone's eyes lit up.

"You did?" Eric asked with a big grin.

"Yes, we did!" Lily confirmed.

Rufus passed out their gifts then.

Everyone excitedly opened their gifts, and loved them!

Rufus explained to Scott that he hoped Scott could teach him how to surf. Scott said he would be honored. They hugged.

After exchanging thanks yous, I love its, and you're welcomes, everyone decided to dance.

"Well, I do miss Hawaii, but, it is good to be home. And, as long as I have you, I couldn't ask for anything more," Rufus said to Lily as they danced to Jason Mraz's "I'm Yours."

Lily smiled, and gently stroked some hair out of her husband's eyes. "As the song says, I'm yours!" She grinned.

Rufus grinned too, then dipped her down and kissed her.

Lily moaned as she kissed him back.

Then, Rufus quickly brought her back up, and twirled her around the room, dancing with her to the song.

Lily giggled. Who needed Hawaii when she had Rufus anyway? Rufus was a million times better than Hawaii, no matter how nice Hawaii was. And, just like she was Rufus', she knew that Rufus was hers, and that was better than all the trips to Hawaii—or anywhere else for that matter—that they could ever take.
