TERA

We settle into a comfortable life. Xander visits me as often as he can, sometimes staying weeks at a time. Jesse, Ben, Kennedy, and Ethan show up out of the blue when Xander stays for lengthier periods of time. It's like they can't be apart that long.

They go through therapy sessions with me—sometimes here and sometimes via Skype. It's helping all of us so much. I can see they're lighter than when they came here the first time after I "purged", and it makes me so happy.

What's even better is, I'm learning to be happy again.

When they come to one of my shows, no one there recognizes them, and I laugh when they're almost insulted by it.

"Fuck these people," Jesse curses, all affronted. "How do they not know who we are? We're Falling Down, motherfuckers!"

I laugh at his outrage. "These are artistic people. They likely don't do 'rockstar'."

"Losers, every one of them," Jesse insists. Then he goes on to tell me how they're artists, and in the end, I let him win. He's got a point… just not the same kind I was trying to make.

But that's okay. We've learned to compromise. We've learned to negotiate when we need to. We've learned to be family again.

One night after we make love, I ask Xander if he's upset with me for not being able to be with him outside of my comfort zone.

"Never. I've lived without you once, Tera. I'll take you any way I can get you for as long as you'll let me," he assures me.

It's then that I finally start to live—really live again. It's then that I begin to believe in happily ever after again. It's then I allow myself to be completely happy and whole with my family and the man I love.
