"I'll tell them they can't have you, you're mine" and he laughed his head off. Aiden, being a nicely brought up church going young man, stood up as they came to the table "good morning ladies, what can we do for you today?" There was three of them, and they were a bit taken aback by such a warm greeting "well we were wondering if we could speak to the lady who has all those beautiful flowers to get rid of, if it's at all possible?" said the first witch "yes that's me, what would you like to ask me?" "Well we were wondering if we could have a few for the church, if you don't mind giving them to a church" said witch no 2 "why should I mind giving some flowers to a church, I mean it's a proper church isn't it, it's not secretly a place for devil worship is it?" They looked at Freya as if she had two heads "sorry about that ladies, my fiancee has a weird sense of humor, she's Welsh you know" they all nodded and looked at Freya as if to say 'poor dear' . "Of course you can have some, give me five minutes and I'll be with you." They all smiled and moved away from the table "why are you making them wait?" Asked Aiden "because I want to make sure Jed, Bill and Gladys have all the flowers they want" "oh right" "so did you two get the flowers you wanted last night or do you still need to pick some?" "well I took mine last night, and gave them to my mom and grandma this morning and told them they were from Aiden Ross and his fiancee Freya, you'd swear I'd given them a piece of heaven, they love you even more now" "what about you Jed? did Ethan put yours away for you and your jasmine bushes?" "Yes and Ethan is going to take me to the cemetery afterwards with the roses and plant the bushes when the weather better" "good, I'll just speak to Gladys." So Freya went over and asked if she wanted any flowers "I was just about to go and get some, I'm going to do the same as Jed, take some to the cemetery for my mom, dad and husband, bless them" "I'm sorry Gladys, I didn't realize you were a widow, just like me" "but you found love again, Freya. I don't think I ever will, my Paul was a very special man" and she looked sad "it's a long story, but you're wrong, I haven't found love again, I've found love for the first time, Aiden's my soul mate and I'm feel very lucky and blessed that he fell in love with me, apart from the love of my children, I've finally found out what the true meaning of love is, because I never had any with the thing I was married to, the only good thing I had from that marriage were my children, and the bastard even took one away from me when he died in the accident , my one and only son was with him in the car, but that's history, best left in the past." 

The next thing Freya felt Aiden's arm's around her, he'd snuck up behind her "yes it is Freya, I know you mourn your son but that bastard is best forgotten" he turned her round and looked deep into her eyes, "I'm not perfect, but I love you with all my heart and I promise I'll never hurt you, and I'll always be here for you, I love you" and he kissed her "I love you too my darling, and I'm not perfect either but I'll always be here for you to, because I love you with all my heart" and Freya kissed him back, as the couple hugged one another tightly they looked at Gladys and she had a tear in her eye, "that was beautiful, you've practically written your marriage vows , it was just so heartwarming, but the God squad are looking disgusted because you kissed each other in public, the old prudes. God knows what they'd be like, if they knew you slept in the same bed" "well that's all we did do, we went to sleep, but I think Aiden must have been dreaming" and Freya winked at Gladys. "Well let's go and get what flowers you want, then anybody who wants what's left can have them, why don't you keep some for yourself Gladys, I mean I know they came from that horrible man, but they are still beautiful and I'm giving them away with love" "I think I will, and I'm going to be cheeky and pinch a couple of Jasmine bushes" "you're not being cheeky, I've told you, you can have what you like and then the God squad can get some, let's go and pick which one's you want" so they went and raided the flowers, Gladys got roses, carnations, lily's, a couple Freya didn't know the name of and her bushes. "My mom will love them, they're so beautiful, I must remember to put the containers to one side, the florists will pick them up when they are empty, apparently he just walked in and said 'I want everything And that was in the first flower shop' then he raided the other one and did the same" " what the hell did he think I'd want with so many flowers and plants, especially as I'll be going to the next show after" "he was making a grand gesture" "well I didn't need it, but at least there will be plenty of happy people around getting flowers, I suppose I'd better let the witches Macbeth in , Aiden can you ask the ladies to come in please darling?" "your wish is my command" and he bowed and kissed Freya's hand. "You're an idiot, but I love you, now go and get the witches?" "why the witches Macbeth?" "Because there's three of them, and they're all dressed in black and they just look the part, I could imagine them standing round a cauldron, but Jed says they're a pain, but very nice" "they are actually, they just love their church and it keeps them out of mischief, and they do a lot for charity" said Gladys "well I apologize for calling them witches, but I was only joking and I wouldn't say it to anyone else" "I know Freya, you're not a nasty person" "Aiden says I've got a weird sense of humor and I'm Welsh, which apparently says it all" and she started laughing and Gladys joined in, and Aiden walked in with the ladies, and Gladys and Freya looked at one another and burst out laughing again.
