One Man, One Woman

Surprise, Surprise

September 14, 1979
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

After the success of their first concert, the group flew back to Vancouver this morning to prepare for their next concert, which was to be held at the Pacific Coliseum tomorrow night. Once they arrived at the Bayshore Inn, which was the hotel they were staying at during their stay in Vancouver, they decided to relax for a bit by the pool. Well, Björn decided to do his usual morning jog before joining the others at the poolside. Today was just going to be their day off relaxing with tomorrow being filled with rehearsals ahead of their next concert.

"Anna, how are you feeling?" Björn asked as he approached Agnetha in the hotel's main dining area, where they were having breakfast.

"I'm good," Agnetha replied as she turned to him. "How are you?"

"I'm also good."

"I'm just glad the kids are coming earlier than we expected."

"Same."

Agnetha wasn't lying when she said that the kids were coming earlier than expected. They were supposed to fly in when the group were already in the United States but both Eva and Björn's parents wanted to surprise Agnetha and Björn with both the kids so they were currently on a plane from Stockholm to Vancouver. Agnetha and Björn would come and pick them up at the airport later tonight. Meanwhile, Mona and Agnetha's parents were flying in as well but on a different flight so the entire family would be there. It was the same situation with Hans, Peter, Helene, Lotta, and little Fiona.

"Did you miss the kids?" Agnetha asked curiously as she and Björn sat down at the breakfast table.

"Of course I did," Björn replied chuckling.

"Silly question I know but I've missed them very much," Agnetha replied with a smile on her face. "I can't wait to see them."

"Well knowing you," Björn replied. "I'm not surprised."

After breakfast, Agnetha, Björn, Benny, Frida, and their entourage went about their day as it was their day off and they all wanted to take advantage of it whether it was sleeping or eating or relaxing by the pool. After a while, it was time for Agnetha and Björn to head to the airport to pick up the rest of their family including Linda and Christian. After an hour long drive which would've only taken 25 minutes due to the rush hour traffic, Agnetha, Björn, and their driver finally arrived at the Vancouver Airport at last.

"I'm nervous," Agnetha breathed as she put her hand on Björn's lap as their driver pulled into the international arrivals section of the airport.

"Why?" Björn asked as he turned to Agnetha and put an arm around her.

"Because we haven't seen the kids in quite a bit," Agnetha replied. "I know it's only been a few days but still."

"There's no need to be nervous," Björn replied reassuringly as their driver pulled into one of the main pick up areas at the arrivals and Agnetha and Björn got out of the car to wait for their family inside. "There's no need to when you're with me and if anything, I think the kids are really excited to see us again, even if it has been a few days."

"I love you Björn," Agnetha replied lovingly as Björn held her closer and the looks of love were given.

"I love you too Anna."

Agnetha and Björn kissed shortly afterwards just as Eva, Aina, Gunnar, Linda, and Christian showed up. Mona, Birgit, and Ingvar were not too far behind as they were still at baggage claim. There was no doubt that Linda and Christian were very excited to see their parents as Linda began running with excitement while Christian, who was in Gunnar's arms, began squealing with joy and reaching for his parents.
