***5 YEARS LATER***

I was sitting in the seat with Chris and our 4-year-old daughter Shane.

"You ready to see it?" Chris asked and I nodded.

"I miss it though." I said and Chris sighed.

"You could have come back after Shane was born." Chris said.

"I know...I wanted to be a stay-at-home mom though. I mean we had Shane and then right after we had Blake. Don't know when I would have come back." I said.

"I know but I will always feel like you put the family and my career above your own and your own happiness." Chris said and I shook my head.

"It may seem like that Chris but I was happy to. Now we get to be here with Shane, Blake is at home with your mom and Uncle Scott and we get to see Auntie Myra in her last show." I said and Shane smiled.

"Mama..." Shane said.

"Yeah?" I asked.

"Can we see tree later?" She asked and I nodded.

"After the show." I said and she smiled. The lights dimmed we started to watch the Rockettes run through the show and I smiled but felt a small twinge of pain.

I knew I could have come back, Chris and I had talked about waiting to have a second kid so I could come back but I knew he wanted a second kid and a family. I gave into him even though the second pregnancy was hard and led to me almost leaving Chris due to him working and me giving up my life to be his baby making machine. I ended up taking over the dance studio is Boston and just kept teaching kids. As I watched the dancers I couldn't help but move my feet to some of the steps. There were some new things but everything was the same. As the saying goes if its not broke done fix it.

After the show we went backstage. Chris set Shane down and she saw Myra.

"AUNTIE MYRA!" Shane yelled and ran to her. Myra turned to see Shane running at her and she picked her up in a hug.

"Oh my goodness! Shaney!" She said and hugged her. Once I reached her she hugged me then Chris.

"You were amazing!" I said and she smiled.

"No Blake?" She asked and I shook my head.

"Home with Mimi and Uncle Scott. No way he was going to sit through this show. But Shane being obsessed with dance..." I said and she smiled.

"Shane, have you ever seen your mom doing a Rockette dance?" Myra said and I glared at her.

"No, she wont show me." Shane said and I groaned. Myra grabbed my hand and dragged me onto stage.

"You know you miss it." Shane said and I groaned.

"I do but I'm too old to be a dancer." I said.

"So join me here in being a teacher." Myra said.

"What?" I asked confused.

"I'm retiring from being a dancer but being a teacher for the Rockettes. Join me in being a teacher. You know you still know most of the routines." Myra said and I looked at Chris.

"It would mean moving to New York." I said.

"We have the place." Chris said and I looked at him shocked.

"You would move?" I asked.

"Myra, can you watch Shane for a minute?" Chris asked and she nodded. Chris took me to the side of the stage. Chris held on to my hands. "Jen, you need to take her offer and be a teacher here with the Rockettes." Chris said and I shook my head.

"No, I have the job in Boston..." I said.

"Which you hate! You haven't been happy since you couldn't come back and got pregnant with Blake. I don't want to keep you from your dreams anymore Jen. You gave up everything with me and having kids. Why don't you do for you once? Don't take me or the kids into account right now, what do you want?" Chris asked and I sighed looked around the stage.

"I wouldn't be preforming, just teaching." I said.

"But you will be back where you always wanted to be and be happy. It's time I do for you in this marriage and you get to tell us what to do." Chris said and I smiled at him.

"You are okay leaving Boston and moving full time to New York?" I asked and Chris nodded.

"More than okay." Chris said. I pulled him to me by the neck of his shirt and passionately kissed me.

"Thank you." I said and Chris looked at me oddly once we broke apart.

"For what?" Chris asked.

"For being an amazing husband, amazing father and for refusing to the hotel room years ago." I said and he laughed as he wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Thank you so much for letting me stay and giving this weird guy who broke into your room a chance." Chris said and I laughed as he gave me another kiss.

"So what the verdict?" Myra asked.

"We are moving to New York and I'm all yours!" I said, Myra squealed and hugged me.

"Welcome back to the Rockettes Mrs. Evans." Myra said and I smiled.
