Yours Forever
Epilogue- Your Forever January 24, 2005 Her family had come and gone. Nikolai had come, they�d had yet another fight, and now he was gone as well. Shae-Lynn Bourne was all alone on her 29th birthday and not at all happy about it. It had been a rather depressing day. The ominous thought of turning 30 in a year had overshadowed the festivities for Shae. For the last few months she had been skating in a few smaller shows and helping Nik with the coaching aspect of his work. To be completely honest, she was doing nothing and going nowhere. She needed a partner and a boyfriend who cared about what she wanted. In her head, the ideal person to fulfill both these needs had a face, a face with a sweet smile and a habitually bewildered expression. The ringing of the phone interrupted her reverie and Shae rushed to answer hoping that this was the call she�d been waiting for, the call she�d been promised. �Hello?� �Shae-Lynn?� The soft, slightly accented voice on the other end definitely didn�t belong to Jamie as she�d expected. In fact it was even more familiar. Her breath caught in her throat, at the memories that were suddenly triggered. They hadn�t spoken in over year, but she hadn�t forgotten the way her name sounded on his tongue. She�d missed it desperately. �Victor!� Shae gasped, �How are you?� �Happy Birthday, Shae-Lynn,� He replied, skillfully changing the subject. �Thank you. Now would you please answer the question?� �You know me too well,� he muttered disconsolately. �Answer,� was the gentle but firm response. Deciding it was pointless to continue his evasions, he let it all out, �To tell the truth, I�m absolutely miserable. I miss you.� When Shae remained silent, Victor stumbled on, �I miss your smile and I miss your laugh. I miss having you critique everything I say, do, or wear. I miss hearing your cheerful voice every morning and I miss hearing you say goodnight. I miss you beautiful.� It was at this point Shae-Lynn found her voice. �I miss you too,� she whispered, a tear tracing a path down her cheek, �I miss you so much.� �You know what else I miss?� He asked her, seemingly changing the subject. �Skating?� �Riverdance.�
