DO NOT READ THIS until you have read Forgive and Forget... Run... and Live, Love, Lost. In that order. NOTE Live, Love, Lost is not finished. BUT if you must read this read whatever i post in tripple L first then read this
Michelle and Damian had just been joined on their picnic by Callie and Patrick. They were given great news, by them and Ryan. All of them saw a kid with glasses come running up, behind him was a woman. Callie and Patrick yelled, "Hi Abigail, Hi Seth."
Michelle and Damian were confused. But they guessed it had something to do with Keith. "Seth wanted to tell you guys something." Abigail said.
"Tell us what it is Seth." Patrick said.
"I am going to Dublin for a Holiday." His face was so bright.
"I thought it would be fun. I don't have the money to leave the country so I thought Dublin was the next best thing."
Michelle whispered to Damian, "Especially when one of the residents is Paul."
Damian laughed, and Patrick who had over heard started to laugh to.
Abigail then noticed the pic nic. "Did we interrupt something."
Michelle and Damian just looked at each other and laughed, "No." Damian replied.
"Well then you don't mind me asking, do you know of any place to stay in Dublin."
"I don't think he would mind." Damian whispered to Michelle.
"His house is big enough." Michelle whispered to Damian.
"It's cheap." Damian whispered to Michelle.
"We know the perfect place, and it wont cost you a cent." Michelle said.
Abagail's face brightened at the fact that it would not cost. "Where is it?" She asked.
"Don't be afraid when we tell you." Damian warned.
"I wont be. Where ever it is we will be happy." She replied.
"It is at a friends house." Michelle said.
"Oh lovely, are they nice."
"Oh yeah." Damian said, "The nicest their is. I mean I have known him for three years."
"Him?" Abigail asked. She was worried.
"Don't worry, he has a huge house, and he only uses the first floor, the second floor is like another house, and you would get it all to yourselves."
This reassured Abagail. "I will give you my number. You can call your friend tell him your plans. And call me when it is all worked out. Oh can I get his number. Thank you so much. You are so kind."
Damian gave her his number. And she gave him hers. Abigail then left with set. They headed towards town.
"Paul is gonna murder ya." Patrick said.
"Calm down Paul is an understanding guy." Damian said.
"You two practically gave away the second floor of his house." Patrick said.
"Hi will understand." Michelle said, "We might need you to help explain some things though." She handed the phone to Damian. Paul's number was dialing. The phone was ringing. It was still on speaker.
"Hey D-man. What's up." Paul said.
Damian laughed nervously, "The sky."
"What do ya need, you only call me when you need something."
"Funny you should say that. I need a favor."
"And what would it be."
Patrick, Callie, and Michelle where trying to cover their laughter. "Do not hurt the messenger." Damian said.
"Or the Idea man." Patrick added, laughing.
"Damian, what did you do." Paul said, he had heard Patrick laugh.
Damian spoke really fast, "Only promise the second floor of your house to a friend who is tight on money."
It took Paul a minute to decipher what Damian had said, the northern Irish accent plus Damian talking fast on purpose was not a good mix. "YOU DID WHAY?!?!"
i know y'all wont be reading this for a while, but tell me what ya think. PLEASE

"Paul, Paul, Paul." Damian tried to reason. "She is a good friend. PLEASE." Damian was giving puppy dog eyes although Paul could not see them.
"No, No, No. I will pay for her to stay in a hotel."
"Paul. Please. She needs protection." Damian was making stuff up now. But it worked.
"Fine." Paul huffed. He was upset. "But under no circumstances is she allowed into my part of the house. Their is a reason why their is a second floor entrance and everything else up their."
"No problem Paul." Damian said. "Oh here is her info, and what she looks like." Damian told Paul everything else.
They hung up.
"Well that worked out perfectly." Damian said with a smile. Patrick, Callie, and Michelle just rolled their eyes.
Damian then called Abigail. And told her the news. Abigail was delighted. She said she would be leaving in a week. The two hung up. Unfortunately Damian did not tell Paul when Abigail was going to show up with Seth. Damian also forgot to mention Seth to Paul.
A week had passed. Abigail was delighted she was going to be able to show Dublin to Seth. But even more so she was happy that Damian's friend was going to be able to help them. Abigail took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
Paul, on the phone opened the door. He quickly closed it. "Mate." He said to his friend on the phone, " I lady with a little boy is standing at my front door." He looked through the peep hole. "What do I do."
The other end bursted out with laughter, "Let her in. That is Abigail."
"Keith, Damian told me nothing about when she was coming or that she had a son." Paul replied.
"Well, she is very nice. She adopted the boy that is with her. Just stay calm. And I guess Damian forgot a few details." Keith said hanging up.
Paul pressed end. He took a deep breath and set the phone down. He opened the door. "Sorry about that. My friend did not tell me that much about you."
"It is perfectly fine." Abigail said.
"Come in, come in." Paul said looking her up and down. He thought she was cute. The flowing red hair. The fair flawless skin. The green eyes, that were the color of the hills of Ireland. Paul tried to get those thoughts out of his head. "Now I know money is tight for you right now, but their are some rules."
"No it is totally fine. Thank you so much for opening your home to us."
"My pleasure." Paul replied, "Now, um... the rules. The second floor is all yours. Their is an entrance to get their from the outside." He handed her keys he fished out his pants pockets. "Um the kitchen down here is free for your use, although their is one upstairs. The living room and game room down here are free for you to use as well. Although I think everything you need is upstairs."
"Thank you so much." Was all Abigail could say. She was blown away by his voice. That melted her heart like butter. She could not take her glare of his eyes. The color of the ocean on a cold winter's day. She finally broke her gaze. She felt it was making him uncomfortable. She headed upstairs. Seth ran up before her. "Um... Paul..." She started.
cliffhanger hahahaha... evil. love ya. PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think

"I have been here so many times I forgotten the good places to go, Do you know of any?"
A smile grew on Paul's face he knew the perfect spot, and it would be so nice with Seth their too. He would just have to figure out a way where he could be their.
Paul was quickly becoming fond of Abigail, whether she like him or not. In his eyes, Abigail was perfect, plus Seth looked like him when he was younger.
"As it happens, I do. Would you like me to take you their." Abigail was hesitant she was in know way ready for whatever Paul was planning. She had a little thought that Paul was trying to go on a date with her. But now was not the time for Abigail to be looking for men. If Paul had intentions like this, it might be the hardest holiday she had ever been on.
Reluctantly she agreed, "Why not."
Paul was overjoyed. Abigail and Seth went to the second floor. Paul did not see Abigail the rest of the evening.
Paul was so excited, he went to the kitchen. He started making lunches. He did this because the perfect spot was a park with plenty of things to do. He decided they would have a picnic he was hoping Abigail did not mind. He finished packing the pic nic, but kept stuffing the basket he wanted everything to be perfect. He had never felt this way before. Abigail made him happy, happy like when he sang with Celtic Thunder. Paul then went to bed, he did not get that much sleep that night, not because he was scared or nervous but because he was far to excited.
He awoke the next morning to the smell of blueberry waffles. Paul glanced at the clock wow, it was late, ten am.
He went into the kitchen Abigail was standing in her pajamas with an eager seth at her side.
She had just given seth three waffles, "Do you want some Paul?" She asked.
Paul was taken back, he never used the waffle iron, he didn't even know how. He didn't even know he had a waffle iron. "He agreed." He did not remember exactly what waffles tasted like, but he was sure he would love them.
Abigail cooked the waffles, and plopped them on a plate she handed them to Paul. Paul grabbed a seat next to Seth who had asked for more.
Paul took the first bite, he had never eaten something so delectable, he soon finished his plate, and asked for more just like Seth.
"These are great." Paul commented, as he finished. He got up from the table and headed to his room."Dress in something comfortable today." He suggested, as he headed to his room.
He left Seth and Abigail alone in the kitchen. Abigail had made waffles for her self and was finishing them.
Then Seth said, "Mom, I like Paul."
"Yeah he is a nice man." Abigail responded.
Then Seth said something so surprising, Abigail almost dropped the waffle iron.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. love ya

"Are you going to marry him?" Seth asked.
Surprised and almost dropping the waffle iron she was cleaning, "Oh know honey, why would you think that."
"Because you seem to like him, and he really likes you."
"Honey, that is sweet, but don't go asking Paul stuff like that. Okay."
"Okay." Seth replied.
Wow, she was not expecting that. Why would Seth say something like that. With a thought like that in Seth's mind, maybe Paul should not go with them today. She was not ready for another man in her life, let alone a husband. This was going to be one hard holiday.
Abigail and Seth went upstairs to get ready for the day. When they came down Paul was waiting with a huge smile on his face. "Um, Paul..." She started.
sorry for the shortness... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. love ya

even though no one is reading it is time for an update
"Can I talk to you." She looked at Seth,"Privately."
"Sure." Paul said. Abigail told Seth to go put on his shoes, as she and Paul walked into the kitchen.
Paul set the basket on the counter, "What do you want to talk about?"
"Well I don't want to sound rude or anything, but I have a strange feeling about you..." She paused and Paul's face lit up, "But, I am going to be frank."
Paul's face saddened, "What do you mean."
"I got out of a rough relation ship and one that was kind of there but feelings were not really mutual. I not ready for another, if ya know what I mean."
"I see." Paul said. "Well we can still have a pic nic. And I will still show you the place." Paul was not going to give up hope, he was different than those guys although he did no know the background, he was sure he could show Abigail he was worth it.
They walked out of the kitchen seth was sitting on the bottom of the stairs struggling with tying the lace on his left shoe. Paul knelt down to tie it. Seth smiled. He really like Paul. The three of them headed out the door. Paul led them to a beautiful park. But he kept walking.
They finally reached a little grove, with a pond in the middle. Paul set down the basket and said, "Welcome to the best spot in all of Dublin."
Abigail was speechless, a tear started to run down her cheek.
"What's the matter?" Paul asked, walking over to her.
"Umm..." Sarah started.
cliffhanger... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE comment and tell me what ya think, I am BEGGING. love ya

"I can't say."
Paul gingerly grabbed her by the arms, and stared into her eyes, "It's okay."
With that Abigail burst into tears. Paul released his grip on her arms and hugged her. Abigail stood their crying on his shoulder for quite some time. Paul soothed her by humming You Raise Me Up. Finally Abigail looked up at Paul with tear stained cheeks, "Paul," She started. "This is really hard for me."
"I am here to listen." He comforted. He wanted her happy.
"About three months ago," She started to tear up, "My brother got really mad, he and my family did not like the man I was dating. Even though their was nothing wrong with him. Well my brother was furious, and when my boyfriend at the time was on a jog, my brother was waiting for him. They got into a huge fight. My brother landed in the hospital dieing a few hours later and Logan, my boyfriend died here. In this area." She just broke down again.
Paul pulled her close, and sad her down. He just let her cry. Seth then came up, "Why is mommy crying Paul."
"Seth," Paul said, he could not say the truth, "Your mommy, er, um, skinned her leg and it hurts alot."
"Oh, I see." Seth said, bouncing away to go play.
"Thank you Paul." She said, and in the back of her mind, she was thinking Paul is different. He is a better man than she previously thought.
"Shall, we eat." Paul suggested.
"Sure." Abigail said, wiping a way the tears, "And thanks for not telling Seth."
"No problem." Paul replied.
"Seth. Time to eat." Abigail called, she watched as Seth came bouncing over the green grass, to the blanket.
"What's for lunch?" He asked.
"Well..." Paul started.
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think. COMMENT PLEASE i am BEGGING. love ya

you know what i have noticed all the stories have something sad happen in them... okay back to story
"We have peanut butter and jelly." He said pulling a plate covered in plastic rap out of the basket. It looked more like a pile of brown mush.
"Wonderful." Abigail said, trying to hide her disgust.
"And we have carrots, and grapes." He pulled a bag out of the basket, it looked like pickled carrots, because all the grapes were smushed.
"Lovely." Abigail said her disgust becoming more evident.
Paul then pulled out a plate of what used to be strawberry short cake but it looked alot more like throw up.
Before Paul could say what it was Seth said, "Is that dog food?"
"Seth, that was not very nice." Abigail said.
"You know he is right." Paul agreed. He was not cook, he did not even know how to work the toaster. "I know this lovely little restaurant..."
"But all your hard work." Abigail insisted.
"You would not even be able to eat a little bit of it." Paul joked.
"Let's go." Seth said jumping up.
They walked the short ways to the restaurant. They sat down and ordered.
The week went by fast, all the time Abigail grew closer to Paul. Seth was as happy as could be.
Things had gone really fast for Abigail she hated to be leaving Paul. She knew their relationship would grow, but not for a while it was too soon.
Paul was dropping them off, he walked them inside the airport. The lobby was big. The security desks right in front of them. The doors to leave behind them. To the right was a lounge area, and to the left was the check bags area. The floor was tiled, with a huge globe.
"Oh my goodness."
cliffhanger so yeah you are missing some things... but it was the best way not to give anything away... don't worry all will be explained

Abigail was in shock. Things had happened so fast, she just couldn't believe the sight. Paul was on one knee, he was holding a ring, "Abigail would you marry me."
Abigail did not know what to say. She had dropped everything she was carrying when Paul dropped to his knee. She was trying to figure out when Paul got the ring, since the day in the park they had spent all their time together, except that day at lunch. She looked over at Seth who had raised an eyebrow, she then looked over at Paul who had an eyebrow raise too. Seth tugged on his mom. Abigail had to answer. She then realized Seth had helped pick the ring. She also realized how much Seth did look like Paul only with glasses. She looked right into Paul's sea blue eyes, that were like liquid, "Paul," she started.
*gasp* what does she say LOL... sorry for the cliffhanger... lol... so i hope you like it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE comment and tell me what ya think.... sorry things went a little fast more will be explained in the next post I PROMISE. any ways love ya... oh and don't kill me... sorry for the shortness... love ya

"Things have happened really fast."
Just then Abigail felt a tugging, "Mommy." Seth said.
Abigail took her attention off Paul and the biggest question, leaving Paul in a state of anxiety waiting for an answer. "What is it sweety."
She bent down to his level, "Mommy," He whispered, "You like him right?" Seth was a smart kid, he knew that she and Paul had gone out every night while he went to a friend of Paul's house.
Abigail smiled. "Yes, I do like him," she whispered back.
"Then say yes, mommy." He whispered.
Abigail smiled, she stood back up. "Paul, even though things have gone really fast, you can obviously see that I am so much more happy with you, also I think Seth likes you to."
"Please just answer." Paul laughed and pleaded simultaneously. He was a nervous wreck.
Abigail laughed, "Yes."
"Alright." Paul jumped up.
The entire airport looked at the couple. They figured out what was going on and started to clap.
"Oh yeah, almost forgot." Paul, remembered. He pulled a little black box out of his pocket. He flipped it open. Inside was the most beautiful princess cut diamond surrounded by three emeralds.
"Oh my goodness. Paul, thank you." Paul slid the ring on Abagail's finger.
The two kissed. Abigail suddenly broke away, "My flight, how are we going to tell every one."
Paul put his finger over her mouth. "You can miss your flight now" He raised his eyebrows. Then he whispered one word.
The three of them walked out of the airport happy.
Out side Paul asked, "So when should the wedding be?" he laughed.
"January." Abigail replied.
"So soon." Paul laughed again.
"Well I want you to be here, and well, I don't want it to be to big."
They both smiled and the three of them headed to Paul's house.
well guys i hope you like it... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE tell me what ya think... only two posts left. comment i am BEGGING. love ya

The next few months were filled with wedding planning. Paul and Abigail were very happy, and so was Seth.
Paul got a call from Ryan one day, "Hey do you wanna come down for Christmas?"
"Hold on Ry." Paul put his hand over the mouthpiece, "Hey Abs, what do you think about going to a friend of mine's house for Christmas, we could reveal the secret, cause I think all of friends will be their."
"Why not, just in time for the wedding."
Paul uncovered the mouth piece, "You can count on us being there."
Paul, Abigail, and Seth headed to Ryan's house a few days later. They were the last of the expected guests to arrive. Well sort of.
Callie opened the door," Paul, Seth!" She hugged them she then saw Abigail, "Abigail! What are you doing here?"
"Long story." Abigail said looking at Paul.
They walked in, turns out everyone was surprised to see Abigail. Just as they were about to tell their story. Everyone was rushed into the Kitchen supposedly Ryan had set up this hole thing with the guys.
They all started to sing a song, then and unfamiliar male voice requested for the song for good to be sang.
"That's my q." Patrick said, walking out of the kitchen.
They finished, and everyone walked out of the room. All the guest's soon found out that Kent had helped Harry and Molly when they went to Disney Land.
Seth finally broke up all the commotion and celebration with a cough.
"Thank you Seth." Paul said, "I have some news guys."
I hoped y'all liked it PLEASE tell me what ya think. love ya.

EPILOGUE:
"Abigail and I are going to get married." Paul finished. Abigail flaunted her ring, the girls ran to look at it.
Damian choked on a chip, Keith spit out his water, Ryan tripped over his cat, and George almost fell off the couch.
"What?!?!" They all said simultaneously.
"How did this happen?" Damian asked.
"Well Damo, It is partially because of you."
"Me?"
"You were the one who said I could life with Paul while I took Seth to Dublin." Abigail said, breaking away from the girls.
"You practically set us up mate." Paul added.
Damian was in shock.
"Damian you are so nice." Michelle said walking over to him and giving him a kiss on the cheek.
"Well you gave me the idea." Damian said.
"So when is the big day?" Keith asked.
"January first." Paul and Abigail said in unison side hugging eachother.
Damian spat out his chips, Keith choked on his water, Ryan tripped over his dog, and George did fall off the couch.
"So soon." George said.
"Why didn't ya tell us mate?" Ryan asked.
"We wanted it to be a surprise." The engaged couple said in unison.
"Well a surprise it is." Callie said.
Kent felt out of place. "Um I am just going to leave now." He motioned.
"No you are my guest." Ryan said, "Consider yourself part of the Celtic Thunder family."
"Oh wow."
"And consider yourself invited to the wedding." Paul added.
A few weeks went by. Last minute planning, and what not. Finally the day of the wedding. It was out doors. White chairs, family and friends were on both sides.
Paul was wearing a black tux with a red tie. As odd as it might seem, Damian was his best man, a coveted spot but Paul's reasons were all good, considering with out Damian he would never have met his bride to be. The order of the guys from middle to end was, Paul front and center in front of the preacher, Damian, then Ryan, Keith, George, Patrick, Harry, and Kent. All the grooms' men were wearing black tuxes with red vests and black bowties. They all had a single white rose as their boutonniere. Damian had two rose buds, one white and one red. Paul's boutonniere was red.
A familiar song started to play, Phil was at the piano singing Danny Boy, as the wedding party went down the isle. Seth was the ring bearer and walking down the isle next to him as the flower girl was Cory, Callie's sister. Cory was dropping red and white rose petals. The bouquets of the bride's maids were white roses. Next to walk down the isle was Megan Celtic Thunder's cellist. Following Megan was Molly, Harry's sister, Ryan smiled. Continuing on with the procession was Callie, Patrick's girlfriend Carrie then walked down the isle to the sound of clapping from her daughter Sarah, everyone laughed. Following Carrie, was Emily, the girl of Keith's dreams. Next was Zara, in a red dress as were the rest of the brides' maids. Walking down the isle as the maid of honor was Michelle. She was wearing a red dress, but she looked different because she had a white ribbon in her hair as a head band, her bouquet consisted of both red and white roses. In perfect timing, Phil finished Danny Boy. He then started to play The Wedding March. Everyone stood up, for respect. Then prettier than any snowflake, Abigail started down the isle. Her dress was white, and her flowers were red roses. Her white dress, made her look like a queen. It was strapless at the top, with intricate beading. It had a large bottom, which reminds one of Cinderella or Sleeping Beauty. There were pickups in the bottom that were just gorgeous. The train was about three feet long and was perfect. She met Paul at the alter. The preacher began, "Dearly Beloved." The ceremony was beautiful. The vows were about to be exchanged. And before any of the words were said Paul handed Abigail the single red rose which he had behind his back. This was a complete surprise for Abigail.
The vows were exchanged and those binding words were said, "I do." Paul said.
"I do." Abigail said. They both smiled.
Paul slipped Abigail's ring on. And she placed his on his ring finger.
"You may now kiss the bride." The pastor ended.
Paul gracefully lifted the veil, and kissed, Abigail. Cheers erupted from the crowd. It was all so beautiful. Paul and Abigail walked down the Isle, to the tune of a song Phil had composed just for the wedding. Arm in arm, Michelle and Damian walked down the isle, followed by Ryan and Zara, then Keith and Emily, then George and Carrie, then Patrick and Callie, then the twins Harry and Molly, then Kent and Megan.
Kent visited Ireland on every vacation, courtesy of a cellist. Everyone was very happy, but no one was more happier than Abigail and Paul.
THE END
I really hope you liked it. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE comment and tell me what ya think, i am BEGGING. love ya.
