The wheel stopped and they exited the ride to join the others, the tension lifting from the group and they walked on. The found vendors for lunch, indulging on treats and hot dogs and watching the clowns as they paraded through the eatery square and played with small children. A soft breeze was blowing in from the waters, cooling her skin despite the relentless sun overhead. After a few games, the group decided to part ways awhile and Matt happily escorted his love along the booths towards the docks.

Matt pulled her into his arms and planted a loving kiss on her lips, lingering awhile to savor the moment. The sun was beginning to set below the water line, splashing the sky with deep reds and hints of sharp orange. They walked along the deserted beach, kicking sand as they went and laughing like children. With her fears finally concurred, Kelsey now felt free to love Matt and allow him to love her the way that a real couple was meant to be.

Kelsey soaked in the atmosphere for the last time, packing her things in her old luggage and the various items she had purchased into a new one, laughing sadly at the extra weight.
