Love Lives Forever

Two weeks has passed in the Tipo Castle, however, nothing has changed. Intact the castle grew even darker. Marcus tried every day to reach Allision. Kate hasn’t said one word to him, she never even left her room. Jai did all of her errands, laundry, grabbing her food for her. For once Marcus felt like he wasn’t in control.

As Jai went to town to get some things for Kate, Kate got out of bed and took a shower, crying, she felt broken in pieces. After her shower she returned to her bed, then looking outside, remembering the time her and Chris spent under the trees, she decided to go outside. She closed her eyes, and there she was, under the tree that brought Chris and her together, she sat there leaning against the tree. As tears were falling from her eyes, she felt something hit her hand. When looked down, there was a rose, but realizing she didn’t grow it, she looked around, but nothing.

The leaves in the tree above her started to rustle and fall down around her, looking up she saw Chris, jumping down. Standing up, surprised to see Chris, Kate spoke “Chris, what are you doing here?” Kate could see the desperation in his eyes. “I had to come back, I needed to see you. I…” Kate cut him off and started to walk away. He ran to catch up with her. “Chris, please just leave, please.” Despite what she said Chris continued to follow her. She turned around to face him. “I said to go away, I don’t want to see you, I don’t want to be around you. Cant you get it yet? We cannot be together, I’m going to marry Leo and that’s that. We are not going to see each other again, I’m done trying to live this fantasy. Good bye Chris.” Before Chris could speak, Kate shimmered.

Growing the vines, Chris climbed up to Kate’s window only to find the window locked. But Chris wasn’t going to give up. He grew a rose on Kate’s bed, but she just threw it on the floor. Sending a message to Kate, “Please Kate let me in, I need to talk to you, face to face.” He didn’t receive a message back, but suddenly he heard the windows unlock. He opened them, and there they stood, face to face. He missed her so much, her eyes, her face, he longed to kiss her, and he knew Kate felt the same way.

Finally he spoke, “Listen to me Kate, I found a place far away from here, in the woods. I’ve built us a cabin. Come with me please, I can’t live without you, I won’t. Nobody would find us out there Kate, please I’m begging you.” Chris got down on one knee as he held Kate’s hand, crying Kate watched as he pulled out a ring, in the shape of a rose. “Miss Kathern Tipo, will you please do me the honor of marring me? Because I love you will all my heart. I have since that first day I saw you in the yard.” Crying, she shook her head, “Yes, Chris, yes I will!” He picked her up in his arms and kissed her, it was so passionate; it was something they both wanted for a very long time. But Kate cut off the kiss, “Listen Chris, I will meet you under the night of the full moon, while the men are hunting, I will leave and go with you.” Chris smiled and agreed to the plan. As he was leaving out the window he stopped and looked back at Kate, his future wife, he smiled. “Oh, there is one more thing.” Confused Kate looked at him. “Your mother is at the cabins with me.” Even more confused Kate said. “Cabins?” Chris smiled, “Yea, three of them, one for us, one for your mother, and one for Jai and Leo.” Kate couldn’t believe it. She gave Chris one more kiss, and he was gone. She watched as he went over the castle walls.

Kate was so happy; when Jai arrived she asked one of the guards to summon Leo. Idmetelty Leo showed up, knocking on the door. Kate quickly opened it and pulled Leo in. when Leo’s eyes met with Jai’s he smiled. Kate showed them the ring Chris gave her, told them how he had cabins waiting for them, all three of them, how they planned to leave under the full moon during the hunt. Jai and Leo smiled and hugged, both agreed to the plan. And for the first time, Kate saw the two kiss. Then to both Kate’s and Jai’s surprise, Leo had something to say. “I knew about the plan, I helped him build the cabins. I was waiting for his final return before I did this.” Jai and Kate looked at each other, then just as Chris had done, Leo grabbed Jai’s hand and pulled out a green diamond ring. “Jai Manks, will you marry me?” Jai smiled and jumped up screaming “Yes, yes, yes Leo I will.”Kate couldn’t believe this, it was all like a dream come true.
