The Island – Finale
The Fairbanks family lived on a quiet cul-de-sac in a suburb in the Pacific Northwest. Dana Fairbanks was a gym teacher at the local high school. There were a lot of jokes when she started about being the stereotypical dyke phys ed teacher.
She quickly won over the students and other teachers with her enthusiasm and dedication. She not only taught, but, acted as a mentor for several students and worked with many other kids to make sure they had the opportunities available to follow their dreams for their future.
The other mom, Alice, was everyone’s favorite. Hers was the house that all the kids gravitated to on a lazy summer day. She was the one you could always call to whip up a dozen cupcakes on short notice for a bake sale, or, to volunteer to man a booth at the school carnival. She was also the one who made sure to schedule a “Girl’s Night” at least once a month at the local Mexican restaurant on $3 margarita night. Dana would go and pick Alice up at closing time and make sure she got safely tucked into bed at home. She would smile to herself as Alice would vow to never to do that again — only to start arranging the next one a couple weeks later.
They had good friends that lived nearby. Someone had finally managed to capture Shane’s heart. She and Carmen were married two years after Alice and Dana and were raising four children of their own — three boys and a girl.
Across the street lived a woman named Sam. She had followed Alice and Shane from the island to head up the security contingent that continued to watch over the growing Fairbanks and McCutcheon families. Sam rented out rooms in her house to “college students”. This was an excellent cover to rotate guards in and out of that posting. In an odd twist, Tasha had settled in with her. The odd pair formed a remarkable relationship.
It was quite a difference from their time on the island.
Dana and Alice’s wedding those many years ago was beyond perfect. It was held on their beach. Dana’s family was there and both Howie and Sharon walked her down the aisle. Harrison handled those honors for Alice. Sam and Shane stood close together to try and keep the other from crying.

Sorry MaGoose that I did not have a chance to comment on your last post. I thought Shane and Harrison in bed together was rather amusing. I suppose no one should cross the Stranton Enterprises because they would be under surveillance for the rest of their lives. lol. MaGoose, what else can I say about this beautifully crafted, well written story. The ending is as surprising as the rest of the story. I like the fact that they try to bring up the children in a more normal setting. A true Danish tale where their love remained strong and lived happily after. Bravo!!!! *clapping* Thank you so very much for your dedication and wishing you a very Happy Holidays!
