*LISTEN TO THIS SONG: Cherry Wine - Hozier*

*Joe's POV*

The humid Australian air is warm against my skin. Emma is fast asleep and I felt like I needed to clear my head. I miss England, I miss it's predictable rain constantly, I miss my daily routine, I miss my own bed, I miss Caspar, I miss my sister and my family.
But then, before I can out here, I was looking at Emma in her sleep. Her eyes closed and her mouth slightly open. I keep asking myself how did I get so lucky. How did someone like her out up with me when I seem to have done nothing to earn it. I love Emma yes, But I miss England. Would I stay for Emma? Of course. But there are days when the homesickness hits me... Like now.
I stare out at the rolling waves. The moonlight reflecting on the surface of the calm water. I run a hand through my hair and lie on the sand, it's soft and silky. I run my hands through it, making patterns and swirls. I close my eyes for a while until I feel a hand slip into mine as I open them again.
'Though I would find you here.' I here her whisper. I smile and gesture for her to come and lie with me.
'Are you ok?' She asks worriedly looking up at me.
I put a finger to my lips, smiling. I nod.
'I love watching the stars.' I whisper, quietly.
'Me too.. That's how I found you.' Emma says softly.
We sit in silence, looking at the stars and listening to the rolling waves crashing on to the sand.
'You can take the boy out of the country, but you can't take the country out the boy.' She whispers to herself. I don't know whether she intended to me to hear or not but it doesn't matter.
I begin humming Cherry Wine.
'The way she tells me I'm hers and she's mine.' I sing quietly and Emma sighs.
I look down at her and her eyes are closed, her breathing heavy.
I get up and pick her up gently. She's light in my arms and she mumbles.
'I love you.' I whisper as we get in the house and up the stairs to bed.
'So much.' And I kiss her forehead, getting into bed myself.

A/N: yes... It's not a cliffhanger or too emotional but... I've decided to end it here. The book is now finished. I know I'm going to get abused (not literally 😂) for this and I'm sorry but I have my reasons.
Thank you to sooo many people for being constant voters and readers.
