Chapter Twenty-Seven
When Seto and Roland got to Jasper's, Joey asked Seto, "Could we stay here and talk?"
Seto smiled at him and he said, "If you want to, yes we can stay here."
So as Roland and Jasper left to go to dinner, Joey and Seto sat down on the couch and Joey said, "I've dreamed of this moment ever since I left Domino, the two of us sitting here just talking about things."
Seto put his arm around Joey's shoulder and as Joey laid his head on Seto's shoulder, Seto told him, "I never thought that I had a chance to win you back, not after the way I acted, but then I guess miracles still happen."
Joey lifted his head and as he looked into Seto's eyes he said, "A man once told me that if I just believed in myself and what I really wanted, then it would come to be. Well he was right, I've wanted us to be together again, and it's happened."
Seto took Joey into his arms and he passionately kissed him and as he lifted his head, Seto whispered, "I can hardly wait for us to be married, I want to hold you in my arms, and never let you go."
Joey touched the side of Seto's face and he said, "I want that too, and soon we will be wed and then we'll be together."
As the driver drove Roland and Jasper to the Club Rhino, Jasper sat next to Roland and he said, "Just think, in two days we will be married and we will be together for the rest of our lives."
Roland smiled at him and then he romantically kissed Jasper and as he lifted his head, Roland whispered, "I can hardly wait, it's been hell not being able to hold you in my arms and make love to you."
Jasper closed his eyes when he listened to what Roland was saying, because he has been having the same feelings and then he said, "I know, it's been hard not ask you to stay with me, but that is going to be all over in a little while."
The driver stopped outside the Club and as he opened the door, and Jasper and Roland got out, Roland said, "Please come back to get us in two hours." The driver said, "I'll be here sir."
When Roland opened the door and they walked in, Jasper knew that this evening was going to be a special night. Roland went over to the man at the desk and said, "I've got reservations, the name is O'Brien."
The man nodded and said, "Please come this way." He showed them to a very exclusive table and as they sat down, the man asked, "Can I get both of you something to drink?"
Roland said, "Can we please both have a couple of tonic water with a twist of lemon."
The man took their order and left, and that's when Roland said, "Jasper, I want to give you this." He then handed Jasper and little black box and when he opened it, inside Jasper found the most beautiful man's bracelet and on the inside was inscribed, "To the one man who taught me to love, it was signed, Ro."
Jasper's eyes filled with tears as he looked at Roland and then he said, "It's so beautiful, please put it on me." As Roland took the bracelet out of the box, he fastened it around Jasper's wrist and then he leaned over and tenderly kissed him.
Back at Jasper's:
As they sat on the couch, Seto asked Joey, "Can I see some of the other paintings you've done since you've been here in New York?"
Joey looked directly at Seto and then he said, "I can show you a few, but most of them were sold at Jasper's Gallery." (What he was afraid to show Seto was the painting that he painted when he was heart broken. He didn't know how Seto would react if he saw it.)
Seto knew that he was hesitant to show him something and so he said, "If we're going to be married, then don't you think that we shouldn't have any secrets from each other."
Joey then said, "Come on, let's go to my room and I'll show you everything that I've painted."
As they walked into his bedroom, Joey walked to his closet; he opened it, and moved some clothes and he brought out three paintings. Joey then said, "These are the only three that I have left, I couldn't part with them, so I hide them in the closet.
Seto walked over to the bed, and as Joey lifted the covers from each of them, Seto's eyes filled with tears when he saw the one painting that showed the Manor with a young man reaching out, and another young man walking away.
Seto looked up at Joey and he said, "This is beautiful, I'm learning exactly what a bastard I was back then, but I swear to you that I've changed an that young man no longer exists."
Joey kissed Seto and then he softly said, "I'm glad that he's gone, because I don't think I could ever stand being near him ever again."
At the Club:
After Roland and Jasper got their drinks, Roland said, "Dance with me." As they stood up and walked onto the dance floor, the band, and then the young lady started singing this song:
Because I Love You by Mark Wills
Because I love you
That's the reason why
'Cause I love you
I'll reach up to the sky
Pull down a fairytale, a wishing well, a magic spell
And give them all to you
Because I love you
All I ever think about is
When I can touch you
'Cause I can't live without
Your little sweet surprise, your hazel eyes, I'm hypnotized
And there's nothing I can do
Because I love you
I'll always be honestly, willingly, faithful and true
Because I love you
I'm hopelessly, endlessly
Yours, heart and soulfully
And I devotedly
Do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I
Do it, 'cause I love you
Because I need you
Say you'll never go away
Because I want you
Every night and every day
Your little mystery, keeps kissing me, I'm history
And there's nothing I can do
Because I love you
I'll always be honestly, willingly, faithful and true
Because I love you
I'm hopelessly, endlessly
Yours, heart and soulfully
And I devotedly
Do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I
Do it, 'cause I love you
Because I love you
I'll always be honestly, willingly, faithful and true
Because I love you
I'm hopelessly, endlessly
Yours, heart and soulfully
And I devotedly
Do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I do it, 'cause I
Do it, 'cause I love you
Because I love you
As they danced, they both listened to the words, and Roland looked down into Jasper's eyes and he said, "I love you with all my heart." Jasper smiled at him and he said, "And I love you more today then I did yesterday."
When the song ended, they walked back to the table and as they sat down, Roland took Jasper's hand in his and he said, "When we marry, I will be the luckiest man in the world. I've found the missing part of my heart, my soul and my life."
Jasper leaned over and kissed Roland and then he whispered, "The day you came back into my life, is the day my life began again."
Back at Jasper's:
Seto and Joey walked back out to the living room and Joey walked over to the window and looked out at the night sky with all the stars twinkling, and he said, "I will forever be grateful to the one who brought you back into my life, now I'm whole again."
Seto walked over and as he wrapped his arms around Joey's waist, Joey put his head on Seto's chest and Seto said, "The we landed in New York, was the day I found my soul mate and the other part of my heart." Then Joey turned around and they kissed each other and behind them, a shooting star raced across the sky as if it were answering both their prayers.
