Jesse and Leslie walked side by side in the field behind their homes. They had brought May Belle along and decided to have a picnic in the tall grass. Jesse noticed dark puffy clouds at the far edge of the field; he made a mental note to watch them. May Belle and Leslie spread an old blanket they had found, and set the straw basket on top. Leslie glanced up, watching Jesse. He was quiet today something that always worried her, the sun reflected off the silver wedding band he wore. And her heart softened she had hers on too it was the only evidence they had of the magical wedding, that had taken place only a few days ago.

"May Belle I'll be right back, stay here ok?" she told the little girl. Leslie rose from her spot on the blanket and walked over to her husband. She flushed lightly; thinking of Jesse like that was something she had to get used to.

"Jesse are you all right?" she asked.

He glanced at her and she felt her heart skip when his dark amber eyes looked into hers. He raised a finger, pointed in the direction of the clouds she noticed they were bulging with the promise of rain and maybe thunder.

"It's going to rain soon." He replied calmly.

Leslie took a long look at him, and he caught her looking. "What?" he asked somewhat startled.

"You're thinking to hard about this Jesse. Everyone grows up at some point." She said. He stared at her stupidly. How did she know what I was thinking? Leslie smiled at him then looked at the horizon.

"Some times I lay awake at night and wonder what will happen to Terabithia, once we are too old to believe in it. Don't you ever wonder Leslie? I do all the time. Not just about Terabithia but … about us. We're on the brink of high school that changes people. I don't want to lose this." He said thoughtfully.

She loved it when he talked like this, pausing in between sentences. He sounded like a true king, a true husband.

"I mean we're married Leslie. Do you get that? Married" he turned to her, and held her hands his.

"Do you regret it?" she asked, lowering her eyes. "Never" he whispered in her ear. It sent chills down her spine.
"I'll always be here for you. Always. Terabithia will take care of itself. When we are too old for it…I think that another will come along and rule. But I know deep in my heart Terabithia will continue whether or not we believe in it." She paused "I have a theory that Terabithia has been there for as long as there has been imagination in the world, and we simply rediscovered it."

He sighed and kissed his wife's hands, he loved the way her mind was so open. For a moment they stayed like that, his lips on her soft hands. Leslie closed her eyes grateful for his touch. She opened her eyes and sighed.

"Come on let's finish this before it rains." She said.

He nodded and they walked back to where May Belle was. The picnic blanket was covered with a plate of sandwiches, cookies, sliced fruit, and a couple boxes of juice. His sister looked up at them beaming, "I set it up all by myself Jesse" He scooped her up and threw her in the air. She laughed uncontrollably, and they sat down together to eat. He'll be a good dad someday. May Belle and Jesse grabbed for the cookies first, but Leslie snatched the plate away and glared at them.

"No dessert until after you've eaten lunch" she scolded caringly.

He half smiled at her but obeyed. She'll be a good mother someday.

They ate until they were satisfied, then laid out on the blanket watching the clouds that had been at the edge of the field just a few hours before. The sky changed subtly from the magnificent blue to a washed out gray, the lazy breeze had turned into a roaring wind. The treetops shook and the wind picked up leaves, throwing them in their direction. All three quickly stood up, and began packing everything away. May Belle screamed as thunder rumbled above them. Leslie threw her head back and laughed, she loved the chaos. It lifted her making her feel like flying.

Jesse sent May Belle home with the basket and watched her take off running. His mother wouldn't worry about him; he had sent a message with his sister. A moment after May Belle took off it began to rain. He watched Leslie skip around, and soon both of them were soaking wet. She didn't care and pulled him into a dance, the thunder cracked around them shaking the earth. She screamed in surprise, and laughed at her reaction. The dirt had turned to mud with the rain; they slipped and landed on their backs. He laughed feeling the adrenaline rushing inside him; the chaos around him was exhilarating. Leslie kissed him under the rain, beneath the thunder.

He kissed her back though there was nothing gentle about this kiss, the chaos seemed to bring out the need in both of them. Leslie pushed against him in rhythm with the thunder, her heart shook and her skin burned where he touched it. And for a moment, the world stopped and it was just them.

Pressed skin to skin. Heart to heart.
