Instantly a barrage of people came towards ra, hugging her, thanking her, crying. Asking a million questions, telling her they knew her mother. It was extremely

overwhelming! Still, ra smiled through it all. It was worth it seeing everyone so happy
to have Maria back!
The siblings along with Owen all handed ra Christmas gifts. In exchange, she handed them all gifts, one extremely special for Maria. During treatment, Maria told ra how she yed the flute before she got sick. As her cancer progressed, it became more difficult to y. She purchased a customized flute for her with her name on it.
Maria began to cry. Hugging ra close, she thanked her over and over. The whole house was filled with love and tears. Mr. and Mrs. Taylor purchased a customized ne with the cancer free sign. The ne had a pink heart almost identical to the one her father had destroyed. She cried as they ced it around her neck. As the evening winded down, ra still had one more gift to give.
Ethan’s.
As if reading her mind, Ethan sent her a text asking her toe outside to the courtyard. As she made her way to the bench he was sitting on, ra noticed how beautiful the fountain was lit up at night. Staring in amazement, she sat next to Ethan.
<i>“</i><i>This </i>is <i>beautiful</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
She said in a low voice. Ethan looked over at the woman who changed his life. He couldn’t help but feel like he’s known her much longer than he had. He’d fallen in love with everything about her, from how brilliant she was to howpensate. He’d fallen for her smiles, her tears, her interests. He knew he wanted to spend his entire life with this amazing person. But would she feel the same?
Ethan looked at ra. He had a long red velvet box in his hand.
<i>“</i><i>Merry </i>Christmas <i>ra</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
ra looked over at Ethan, slight shock on her face. She took the box from Ethan and

opened it up. ra could hardly catch her breath as she stared at the gift. Ethan got her a customized tennis bracelet made. In the middle, there was heart shaped picture of her mother smiling. On each end of the heart was a rose, her mother’s favorite flower.
“<i>Now </i><i>she </i><i>can </i><i>be </i><i>with </i><i>you </i><i>wherever </i><i>you </i><i>go</i><i>.</i><i>” </i>
Ethan’s word’s filled ra with an emotion she now knew to be.
<b>Love</b><b>. </b>
There was no denying it. ra had fallen head over heels in love with Ethan Taylor. Maybe it was the day he asked for her help, maybe it was the day she’d watched the video of him sticking up for her. ra wasn’t sure, but she knew now what her heart had been saying all along.
Closing the box, ra looked up at Ethan, there was fire in her soul that she’d never felt before. Before she could stop herself, ra gently pulled Ethan’s face to hers. Without hesitation, their lips touched for the first time.
It was intoxicating. ra could take the slight hint of wine on his lips, and he could taste the sweet scent of strawberries on hers. They intertwined for what felt like an eternity. When they finally stopped, ra slowly pushed him away staring into his eyes. Ethan could see all the love and desire through her emerald, green eyes, like lightening piercing through his soul. Finally, after catching her breath, ra spoke.
“<i>I </i><i>have </i><i>a </i><i>present </i>for <i>you</i><i>.</i>”
Ethan smiled as he took her gift. When he opened it, he couldn’t help but smile. ra got Ethan a custom made que highlighting everything he’d aplished so far.
