Alex nodded to Mr.Merry then watched Lucy as she came over.Then with a blink he smiled at the car and watched as Lucy hugged Mr.Merry happily. "well, we could go to the book store or the arcade?"

Miyu nodded and smiled softly."yes it took be back by surprise at first,i couldn't stop blushing because deep down i had wanted to kiss you for the longest time ..then ... when you said that.I didn't know what to do....",she laughed."then I took a deep breath and pulled you into a kiss"

Lucy smiled, "both sound wonderful, so how about if your surprise me." she said happily, she couldn't wait to go see other places and maybe remember more.

Nick laughed when he heard her and pulled her close to him, "and it was the best thing that you did." he said as he leaned down and kissed her gently, "I love you and I am glad that I have you back." he said as he looked into her eyes.

Miyu blushed deeply and kissed back sofly ans smiled to himandlocked eyes."im glad im back too"

Alex smiled."lets go to the arcade first so i can win prizes for you again"

Nick smiled and was about to say something when he heard some shuffling. Looking up he saw Ms. Maggie staring at them, "I will state this now, I don't tolerate overly affectionate people in my store. So pick something to eat or get out." she said and Nick just laughed. Ms. Maggie was as strict as ever.

Lucy smiled when she heard him and nodded, "lead the way." she said as she took his hand.

Miyu blinked and looked to Ms.Maggie and blinked."Ms.Maggie?",she asked softly.

Alex looked to her and taking her hand he ran with her down the street

Ms. Maggie looked at them for a second and then pulled out a pair of thick glasses. Sticking them on her face her eyes grew wide, "who are you? You couldn't be… you can't.." She just stared at the girl before her. Nick looked at Ms. Maggie and gave her a slight smile, "Yes, yes it is." he said softly as Ms. Maggie continued to stare. "Miyu?" she asked softly as she walked out from behind the counter, "is that really you?"

Lucy laughed as she ran after him, holding his hand tightly in hers.

Miyu stared and smiled brightly at her."it sure is Ms.Maggie",she said going over to her.

Alex smiled as they stopped at the arcade and looked to Lucy."well, you ready love?"

Ma. Maggie ran over and wrapped her arms around Miyu, "your solid, you really are here." she said as she pulled away and then touched her cheek, "how?" she asked softly as she looked from her to Nick, "not sure you would believe me, I have a hard time believing it."

Lucy smiled up at him, "Im ready to play and see if I can finally kick your butt." she said even though she knew she probably wouldn't. She may be good at building things but video games were something that she wasn't good at.

Alex grinned."awsome lets go",he said pulling her indoise and looked around for the air hocley table.

Miyu blinked.Guess she would have to get use to crushing hugs.When Ms.Maggie pulled away she smiled."its a long story ....",she said softly."

Lucy knew exactly what he was looking for, "its over there." she said as she took him over to the air hockey table. "so are you ready for me finally beating you?" she asked as she smiled at him.

Ms. Maggie looked down at her as she wipped the few tears that sean down her cheeks away, "I thought I would never get to see you again." She then hugged her again, "I missed seeing you and Nick together." "don't crush her, she just came back the other day." he said and Ms. Maggie chuckled as she pulled away again. "I watched you two grow up, can't I hug someone I thought was in the ground for good?" she asked and then smiled at the pair, "what can I do for you two?"

Miyu sqweaked as she was in another crushing hug and tried to look to Nick then finally got to look at Ms.Maggie."i missed you as well.An d were here for icecream"

Alex laughed."you can try",he said getting ready

Ms. Maggie smiled when she heard her and nodded as she headed behind the counter, "what would you like?" she asked happily, glad to serve two of her favorite customers again. Nick smiled, "just chocolate for me"

Lucy smiled, "I will and then I will win." she said as the game started and she hit the puck over to him.

Alex grinned blocking it and sent down her way.Back in their school days,he use to be a hockey player.

Miyu went over amd smiled."double chocolate fudge for me!",she said happily

Lucy tried to block but sighed when she saw it go in, "of course it goes pin, what do I expect from the star hockey player." she said as she hit it back to him.

Ms. Maggie nodded and a second later there ice creams were in there hands. Smiling at her, Nick moved to pay but ms. maggie held up a hand, "on the house as a treat for Miyu being back." she said as she smiled at him. Nick nodded and then looked at Miyu, "where do now? or do you want to eat here?"

Miyu smiled."lets eat here for old times!",she said happily.

Alex smiled softly."you remembered that too?",he said happily an blinked when it wnet in

Nick nodded as he sat down in there usual booth, "i like the sounds of that." he said as he smiled at her.

Lucy smiled and nodded, "of course I do, i went to every game and cheered for you." she said as she smiled at him.

Miyu smiled as she sat down and started in on the ice cream.She thought a moment."so,what have you been up to since Ive ....been away".she said softly

Alex smiled softly."yes you did,you were my lucky charm",he said takeing the puck and started to play aagain

Nick sat back in his hair and looked down at his ice cream, "not much.." she said softly, "after you… left, It was hard for me to move along. Everything just kind of came to a stand still." he said softly as he reached out and took her hand gently, "i lost my rock when you left."

Lucy smiled at him, "I wasn't that lucky." she said as she continued to play, "do you still play hockey?" she asked since he use to play on the weekends even after they graduated.

Alex blinked and shook his head."no not anymore",he said softly

Miyu frowned and gave his hand a gentle squeeze. "im sorry"

Lucy frowned, "why did you stop?" she asked as he got the puck past her again.

Nick smiled when he heard her, "it is okay, Im just glad your back is all." he said as he squeezed her hand back, "i have my rock back and I am going to keep it." he said softly before kissing her hand.

Alex sighed."when you left,i lost that spark ...when i would look into the stands and not see you,i just gave up on it"

Miyu blushed but smiled leaning over and kissed his head

Lucy frowned when she heard him and let the puck go into her slot. Walking over to him she wrapped her arms around him and just held him close, "I'm here now." she said softly as she stayed close to him.

Nick smiled when he felt the kiss and then pulled her to him. Kissing her gently, he looked down into her eyes, "just promise me you won't leave again." he said softly as he stroked her cheek gently.

Alex blinked but smiled hugging her tightly."I love you",he said softly."please dont leave me again"

Miyu smiled softly."I promise i will do what ever I can to never leave you again"

Lucy buried her face into him, "I promise I won't leave you anytime soon." she said before looking up at him. Leaning up she kissed his cheek gently, "I am here to stay."

Nick smiled when he heard her, "good, Im not sure what I would do if you left me again." he said as he stroked her cheek lovingly. He was sure if she left again he wouldn't' be able to recover at all.

Alex smled and kissed her deeply,not letting her go


Miyu smiled and nodded kissing him again."so to the book store?"
