That night, Jessica took Jose, on her horse, to a special place she used to go to growing up.

It was in the woods where there was a waterfall, flowers, and a willow tree.

They sat down under the tree.

"I never took anyone here. I kept it a secret from everyone. Even my parents." She said.

"Well, I can see why. It is an amazing sight. And it's even more beautiful now." He said, looking at her.

"You are smooth." She said, smiling.

"Only for you and you alone, my love." He said.

"Well, merci." She said.

He chuckled. 

He took out his guitar and began to sing to her.

I love the lovliest girl in the world,

she's as lovely as the rose

that she wears.

Here's to the dearest,

my one in the world,

she's the answer to all of my prayers.

California Rose, I see the light of love

upon your face.

California Rose, I live to share

the warmth of your embrace.

Hands that caress me,

so soft to the touch;

Lips that possess me

and promise so much!

Near and far away they know

about the rose that's in your hair.

Lonely lovers say

they'd give the world if only you would care.

But darling, you're mine

and my love I'll always share,

forever more,

my California Rose.

California Rose.

Jessica smiled at his song.

When he finished, she hugged him.

"That was beautiful." She said.

"Now, it's your turn." He said.

She began to sing.

I'd work for you, I'd slave for you

I'd be a beggar or knave for you

If that ain't love, it'll have to do

Until the real things comes along

I'd gladly move the earth for you

To prove my love dear and it's worth to you

If that ain't love, it'll have to do

Until the real things comes along

With all the words dear at my command

I just can't make you understand

I'll always love you darlin', come what may

My heart is yours what more can I say

I'd sigh for you, cry for you

I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you

If that ain't love, it'll have to do

Until the real thing comes along

With all the words dear at my command

I just can't make you understand

I'll always love you darlin', come what may

My heart is yours what more can I say

I'd sigh for you, cry for you

I'd tear the stars down from the sky for you

If that ain't love, it'll have to do

Until the real thing

The one ideal thing

Until the real thing comes along

Jose smiled at her voice.

When she finished her song, he kissed her hand.

"Perfection. Just perfection." He said.

"I'd say the same about you." She said, smiling.

He chuckled.

"Oh and darling? I love you." He said.

"I love you too." She said. 

He took her hands. 

She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. 

He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her back.

Their love stayed strong. Forever.

THE END
