EPILOGUE

In the shallows of the freezing cold pacific ocean Kylie stood shivering with cold and shock. “ Eduardo, as soon as I find you I’m going to kill you.” Eddy sat behind her carefully assessing
injuries on the back of his head. “ Ky, I’m behind you.” She turned and waded towards him. “ If you ever, ever do that
to me again I swear I will kill you.”

“ What kiss you?”

“ No, push me off a cliff.”
She noticed the blood trickling down his temple. Bending beside him she examined the cut. “ You going to be okay?” His only answer was a noncommittal grunt. Giving him a hand they staggered out of the water and collapsed on the dry sand.
“ I think I’m going to die.” Eduardo frowned and propped himself up on one elbow. “ Are you hurt?”

“No.”

“ So what are you going to die of?”

“ Exhaustion. Should we get back to the hotel, let the others know we’re still alive?”

“ In a minute.” A cool wind raised goose bumps on her flesh and she nuzzled closer to him. He turned his head slightly and kissed he on the cheek. “ Love ya.”

“ I love you too. Come on or I’m going to freeze.” Eddy wrapped his arms around her and held her close, kissing her once more before they began to walk.

Garrett opened his eyes the next morning to hear laughter in the next room. Strange, that was Eduardo’s room. And Eduardo was... “ Roller boy! Get up!” Smiling to himself he said “ Very much alive. Peach fuzz really is a survivor.”
