Chapter 1 : A surpriseIt takes place 3 mouths after the Dome disappear. Julia and Barbie stayed in Chester's Mills, just like Joe, Norrie and Carolyn. Sam Verdreaux and Junoir moved to Zenith and Big Jim is in jail.
That morning, Julia woke up feeling sick. She looked all round and Barbie wasn’t there. Wondering where he was, she got out the bed. While standing up, her head started to spin, she felt right back sitting in her bed. Barbie was down stairs. He heard the noise that Julia did. He went upstairs to tell her ‘’good morning ‘’, but he found her crying. He rushed to see know what’s wrong again. It wasn’t the first morning that she wakes up and cries. He moved her glorious red hair back and holds her face. ‘’Baby, what’s wrong?’’ ‘’I don’t know….. I feel sick and I thought that you were gone’’ said Julia while crying. ‘’Why would I be gone?’’ ‘’I don’t know, I’m so confused’’ ‘’SSsshhh, stop crying… Because I don’t understand what you’re saying’’ Barbie said and he kissed her forehead. ‘’I’m right here and I’m not going anywhere. I’m going to take good care of you because I can feel that your temperature is higher than normal ‘’ He hold her in his arm so tight that she stopped crying and that she could feel that he wasn’t going to leave. He will be with her for a long time if it’s not forever. ‘’Now, tell me how you really feel?’’ ‘’I’m… I’m… I’m so going to be sick right now.’’ And she ran to the bathroom, Barbie followed her. ''Are you alright baby?’’ ‘’I think so; I feel much better now, except for the headache and stomach pain.’’ ‘’Do you want to eat or drink something?’’ ‘’Maybe drink, orange juice, something like that.’’ ‘’After that, do you want to do something, like going to walk outside, see Norrie and Joe or you want to go back to bed?’’ ‘’I think it will be best if I go back to bed. Would you come with me? Just so I could feel that you’re there with me.’’ Right when she said that, his face changed. He wanted to do something but maybe not be in bad all day long. Even if he love her so much, that doesn’t mean that he will check her sleep her all day. ‘’What? ’’ ‘’Nothing… ‘’ said Barbie even if there was something. ‘’Don’t play that game on me Dale Barbara. I know you don’t want to do that. I can see it in your eyes. If we go walking a bit, will you come after with me? ‘’ ‘’In this case, yes I will.’’ ‘’I knew that would work. But please, make it short, no more shortcuts like the other day… ‘’ ‘’ What, that was fun, right? ‘’ ‘’ Talk for you, you didn’t bleed yourself to death while trying to get on the top of the rock that we climbed.’’ ‘’Yes that’s true! ‘’Barbie respond this with a big smile on his face. At the same moment, he got closer to her and kissed her on her lips. This is was different than the other time, it was long and passionate. Both of them didn’t want to end it. …………. ‘’ Ok Barbie I’m ready, we can go now. ‘’ Julia looked around, and Barbie wasn’t in the living room. He was outside talking to someone on the phone. Since when does Barbie talk on the phone, to whom? Julia caught a part of the conversation. ‘’ I know, we’ll be ready for this. We’ll be there on time and everything will be perfect…. I’m just waiting for the right moment to ask her… She’ll be ready soon so I’ll have to let go, if I don’t want her to know. ‘’ Know what? Ask her what? And ready for what? Who is he talking to? She ran to the end of the stairs, like she just went down. Barbie came back in the house. ‘’ Great you’re ready. We can go now.’’ ‘’Why were you outside?’’ ‘’I was checking the weather, if it was hot or cold to put a jacket and a scarf.’’ What’s the game? What is he planning? As a journalist, these questions are in her head. She desperately wants to know without revealing to him that she saw him on the phone. ‘’Right, then what is the weather like?’’ ‘’It’s good but you maybe put a jacket and a scarf.’’ They left their house. They talked and laugh and so much more while they were walking. Suddenly, Julia asked Barbie if they could take a break, because she was feeling sick again, less than this morning but she needed a break. Barbie found a place where they could sit near from where they were. They sat for a couple of minutes, enough so Julia could feel better a little bit. Barbie stood up and looked at Julia. Was that the thing he was speaking on the phone this morning, that’s what Julia asked herself? ‘’Julia, my love! We met under the dome and now it’s been almost 3 months that this is all over. We created a life together in another place, in a new house and with new friends. I feel like it’s the perfect time for us to settle down our lives. Will you marry me and be with me forever, honey? ‘’ Surprised by the situation, she started crying. ‘’Yes, I do want to marry you. I love you more than anything in this world, and I want to spend my whole life with you.’’ He gave her the ring that he chose for her. The perfect one with a blue diamond on it, just like her eyes. He kissed her so hard to they could both forget everything that could ever happen to them in the future. They will fight everything together now. End Chapter 1
