The Last Laugh

Chapter 69

***

Ace's POV:

I called Keith over to my apartment. When he got into the living room and found Heather and I on the couch in each other's arms, he froze, a smile spreading across his face.

"Did I miss something?" he smiled and approached us. We smiled back and I stood up to face him.

"Thanks, man."

"For?"

"I know what you did. Heather told me."

He looked at Heather who smiled at him.

"Well, I had no choice," he replied and I smiled at him.

"It was a risk but you took it, just so I won't break down on myself. I don't know how to thank you enough. You're a brother."

We hugged each other.

"I'm glad everything turned out well," he said with a smile, "I was afraid I might worsen things."

Heather stood up too.

"Well, you didn't, Keith. You don't know the great thing you did to us by telling me the truth. I'm as thankful as Ace. Thank you very much," she hugged him too.

"Aw, y'all are gonna make me cry. This is horrible," he joked and we all laughed.

We then took our seats.

"So this means, she really knows everything?" he asked me.

"Yes," I turned to Heather, "And she's on my side. She'll be of great help."

"I knew it!" he smiled, "What were you so afraid of??"

"I don't even know. But Heather and I are once again united, with no lies or secrets. Thanks to you, pal. I owe you a lot."

"You're welcome," he smiled and we all laughed, "Sheridan and Heather. What a step in the past. Now see how both of you have changed."
