A/N: Thanks for all your reviews. I know I don't say that enough, but I really appreciate it. This chapter is pretty darn long, so I hope you enjoy it.

"Top Of The World"

Kris rolled over the following morning and found herself falling to the floor. "Oww…" Hearing a loud thud, Jean and Matt ran into the living room to check on Kris.

Matt picked Kris up from the floor. "Are you alright?" Matt asked worriedly.

Kris brushed off her pajama pants and said, "Yeah, I just fell off the couch, Matt."

"Well we wanted to make sure you were all right sweetie," Jean explained as her heart finally went back to its normal pace.

Kris smiled, seeing how concerned the two were for her. Even throughout everything that had happened, Jean still love Kris like a daughter and Kris was thankful for that.

"Well, now that you've finally risen from the dead, how about breakfast?" Matt suggested as he stretched out his hand to guide Kris into the kitchen.

Kris gladly accepted his hand and walked toward the kitchen with Matt and Jean. She glanced at the clock on her way in and said, "10:30! I've been asleep this long?"

Jean laughed as she poured a mug of coffee for Kris. "You were tossing and turning all night. We didn't want to wake you."

Kris outstretched her arm and accepted the warm coffee mug and smiled, saying, "Thanks." Then Jean excused herself as she said she had paperwork to tend to.

Matt sat down across from Kris at the table and gave her a cold cinnamon bun. "Hard night?"

Kris raised her eyebrows and Matt knew the answer. She took a bite of the cinnamon bun and said, "Do you think your mom will let me ride Wildfire today?"

Matt got up and poured himself a glass of orange juice. "I don't know, Kris. She practically had a heart attack when she heard you fall off the couch."

She giggled as she remembered her graceful fall just minutes ago. Since Kris had nowhere to sleep for the night, Jean had offered the guest room to her so she could sleep there. But Kris insisted on the couch. Kris stood up to put her now empty plate in the sink and said, "How have you been, Matt?"

"Okay I guess. The dude ranch makes me gag, but I'm glad I am back into racing," Matt answered.

Kris sat back down and put her hand on Matt's arm. "I'm really sorry I fell off of Nosering. I've really let you down by not being here to help."

Matt quickly raised his free arm, telling her to stop apologizing. "It isn't your fault. It isn't anyone's fault. Besides, I know you wouldn't abandon me anyway. Don't be sorry."

Kris smiled widely. She knew that Matt wouldn't be mad at her, yet she felt like she needed to apologize. "Nope. I'd never abandon the handsome Matt Ritter."

Matt grinned from ear to ear. He stood up and said, "I have to go train Flame some more. Come and watch if you want." He walked a little ways before he stopped right behind Kris' chair. "Thanks Kris. I would never be able to do all this without you." Kris turned her head and looked up at Matt. She stared deep into his eyes and smiled. He then leaned down and gently kissed her cheek.

"I know you couldn't have," she sarcastically replied.

As Matt left the hose, Kris couldn't help but think of Junior. She loved him so much, but she had no idea how she was going to fix her problem.

Eventually Kris found herself walking on a familiar path that led to the Davis mansion. As the enormous house came into view, she stopped and sighed. She knew she had to talk to Junior, but she didn't know how to. Instead, she turned around and retreated.

When she got back to Raintree, she saw a familiar silver Porsche. She figured he was there to see Matt, so she avoided going to the track. Instead she decided to go into the stable and visit Wildfire.

As she walked toward Wildfire's stall, she heard someone talking. She went a little closer and listened intently. Then she heard Junior's voice that was talking to Wildfire.

"…and I have no idea what to do. Do you know how scared I am? The one time I actually could have helped her and I had to get coffee. How could I do that? I mean, if I couldn't keep her safe while she was in a hospital – out of all places – how can I protect her if we ever get married?" Then she heard Junior sigh heavily and quietly say, "How can I not tell Kris this, but I can tell you?" he giggled softly beneath muted tears. "I can see why she talks to you so much."

Before Kris had a chance to leave the barn, Junior stood up and saw her standing there. He sighed while wiping the hay from his jeans. "You heard all that?"

Kris nodded her head slowly as Junior exited the stall to stand in front of Kris. She reached up and wiped his cheek, which had a tear on it. She then embraced him in a loving hug and Junior felt all his pain wash away.

Kris then held his hand as they went on a walk together. Junior was the first to break the silence by saying, "Maybe you were right, Kris. I can't keep you safe, so maybe it's better if we don't-"

Kris placed her finger on Junior's lips, telling him to stop talking. She then took Junior's face in both her hands and kissed him deeply. Junior felt every emotion run from his head to his toes in delight.

When Kris pulled away she said, "Look, Junior, I was upset yesterday and didn't think of how you were feeling. And I'm really sorry for it. I just jumped to conclusions and let my anger control me."

"Yeah, but you had every right to be upset. I promised to love you and be there for you, but instead I left you in a hospital."

They continued walking as Kris said, "You know, Matt helped me to understand how you were felling. Even before I heard you tell Wildfire. Matt is a good friend."

Junior smiled for he figured Matt would butt in and try to fix someone else's problem. After a while of silence, Junior said, "You know they arrested Mack."

Kris stopped where she was and stared at Junior. "Don't joke with me."

"No, I'm not. Because of what he did to you and three witnesses, not including you, it was enough to arrest him," Junior clarified. He was happy to bring the good new to Kris that told her that her nightmare was over.

A smile began to emerge on her lips, but she quickly wiped it away before she said, "So, is it really over?"

"I hope so," Junior said. Then Kris threw herself into his arms and giggled endlessly.

The pair continued walking in a happy bliss until they reached the top of a hill that overlooked both Raintree and Davis Farms. Kris unlaced her fingers from Junior' as she quickly ran forward to soak in the whole view. Nothing but a smile appeared on her face and Junior loved it.

Junior stood a ways away as he watched her eyes sparkle, taking in the whole scene. Right then, he fell even more in love with her then he ever had before. Everything about her dazzled him. The way her hair flowed with the wind, her eyes ignited at the sight of beauty, her hips curved with her body, her arms swayed in the air. God, he loved that girl.

Junior stepped next to Kris and she turned to face him with a smile still plastered on her face. Junior reached into his pocket and pulled out a familiar ring.

He knelt down on one knee and began a speech, one he didn't say the first time he proposed. "Kris, every time I look at you, I fall more in love. Everything about you amazes me. And when you gave this ring back and walked away, I died on the inside. I realize that I can't live my life without you because I love you, Kris. I love you. Please, please, please, marry me?"

The smile that slowly disappeared as a look of surprise ran down her face quickly reappeared bigger than ever. She ran her hands through Junior's silky brown hair as her head slowly nodded. Then a loud and long, "YESSSSSS!" escaped from her lips.

Junior jumped up from his knelt position and picked Kris up off her feet and spun her around. She threw her head back and laughed with joy. She loved Junior so much and wanted this moment to last forever – in this place, with this view, with this man. Forever would she remember the way Junior kissed her endlessly that made her feel like she was on the top of the world.

And to her, she was.
