--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eight year olds E.J. and Elizabeth lie on the couch listening to the story of their parent’s romance.
They were in awe that their story was like that of a romance novel, or a Saturday night movie. But a sense of pride came over them, as they thought to share this story with their friends in the second grade class.
“All right my precious little darlings, it’s off to bed with you two. Tomorrow is a big day for all of us.” Their mother told them.
Their father stood up and stretched. “Yes, your mother’s right. We are going to your God Parent’s anniversary party tomorrow.”
“Yaay!” They both shouted in unison.
“I can’t wait to see CJ!” Elizabeth cried.
“Yaah is right, so get on in your rooms and your father and I will be there to tuck you in, in a bit.”
Elizabeth ran off toward her bedroom, but E.J. turned around to face his father.
“Dad, will Grandpa Sam be there?”
Ethan and Theresa looked at one another and smiled down at their son.
Ethan put his arm around his beautiful wife and pulled her close.
“Yes E.J. my dad will be there. Everyone will be there.”
“Cool, because I love to hear his cop stories. And I want to see his arm where the bullet wounded him. He really is a neat grand father.”
“Yes, he is E.J. The best father anyone can ever have.” Ethan said smiling down at his son.
“Well second best dad. He’s second best.” He said smiling up at Ethan.
“Okay, that’s enough.” He said with a huge grin. “Get to bed you. Your mom and I will be there in a few.”
“All right, I’m going.” E.J. said marching off toward his room.
Ethan and Theresa sat back down on the couch wrapped in each other’s arms.
“I remember that night just like it was yesterday. I was so scared that I would lose him that night. I had just accepted him as my father and when he got shot, I thought it was too late.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HARMONY: EIGHT IN A HALF YEARS EARLIER.
Luis tied up the goon, and Ethan called 911. He walked over to Sam whose lifeless body lay on the floor of the abandoned apartment.
“Dad!” Ethan cried out with emotion. “I…I don’t know what to say. You risked your life for me.”
Sam coughed while trying to speak.
“Ethan…” he began to whisper. “I…would do…it all over…” He began to cough again. “If…I…”
“Shhh, try not to speak. You need your strength.” Ethan said stroking his father’s hair.
“Ethan… I know we’ve never seen…” Sam trailed off with a few coughs.
“Please father, don’t speak. Save your strength. The paramedics will be here soon.
“Not…until I…tell you I love…you.” He said with tears.
Ethan began to feel the tears falling down his cheeks. He was sorry he waisted so much time fighting the fact that Sam Bennett was his father. If only there was a chance for Sam to make it through this. He would do what ever it took to have that relationship with him just like his mother wanted him to.
“I love you too. Just don’t leave me. If I would never had called you to meet me here, none of this would have happened. Please dad, please don’t die. I need you.”
Theresa walked over to her husband and put her arms around him to give him comfort. Ethan grabbed her hand and kissed it gently. His tears began to fall fresh again, and he didn’t know what to think or do.
“Has anyone checked on Gwen?” He said looking up at her.
Theresa shook her head indicating that it was too late for her. Gwen’s fate was in the hands of her creator now. It was all over for her.
Ethan put his head down and shouted. “Where are those damn paramedics.”
“Please God, please let him live. Please don’t take him away from me now.”
And he dropped his head, and finished his prayer.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
HARMONY: EIGHT IN A HALF YEARS LATER
“That was pretty scary wasn’t it?” Theresa said placing her head on Ethan’s shoulder.
“Yes it was.”
“Well, I’m sure that it was your prayer, and your feelings of love for him that helped him through it. I was so glad you accepted your father. And I have to say that he is a very lucky man.” Theresa said smiling.
“You know Mrs. Crane, you are the love of my life. You always had faith that things would work out didn’t you?”
“There was never a doubt in my mind. As long as we are together, we can face what ever dangers life throws our way.”
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After tucking the children in for the night, Ethan and Theresa ran to their bedroom.
Theresa put on a very sexy negligée, and Ethan grabbed her around her waist.
“You know, you are the most sexiest woman I know.”
“Is that right now?” She said giggling.
“You know you are, and I am the most luckiest man in the world because you are mine.”
Theresa smiled at her husband and repeated those wonderful, wonderful words.
“And you my love, are mine.”
The End!
