Chapter 6: The Anniversary for Two
As soon as Carrie reaches up for the tower, she looks around and sees a spotlight showing a beautifully decorated table with a freshly cooked dinner. Her eyes looked down and she followed the rose petal path then looked closer at the banner that read 'Happy 26th Anniversary.' Carrie places a hand on her chest as she sat down at the table. Yakko immediately came out of the shadows and sat down in front of her. "What do you think? After this, we got a nice boat ride." The two then began to enjoy their dinner, giving each other daydream gazes every so often. "Can you believe it? 26 years going strong." Carrie blushes as she takes his hand. "Yeah. We stuck together through thick and thin.. It almost feels unreal."
After finishing up their meal, Carrie changes into a nice red dress and the two of them walk outside and walked out to the boat near the lake and Yakko rows them out farther. Wakko, Dot, and Lauren step out onto the water tower balcony and they release separate colored floating lanterns and people in the studios did the same, letting them out of the windows. Carrie noticed the first three coming from the tower, and then she pauses the scene and looked to the people. "Disney, we know you're more bloodthirsty in copyright, so please forgive us for this beautiful scene." And then she got back into position, unpausing the scene.
"All those days watching from the windows. All those years, outside, looking in. All that time.. never even knowing just how blind I've been.. Now I'm here, blinking in the starlight. Now I'm here, suddenly I see.. Standing here. It's all so clear. I'm where I'm meant to be. And at last I see the light, and it's like the fog has lifted. And at last I see the light, and it's like the sky is new.. And it's warm, and real, and bright. And the world has somehow shifted." Carrie watches the lights float around them, and then she turned to Yakko, who had two of his own. "All at once, everything is different.. Now that I see you."
Carrie sat down and then remembers something and she pulls out a present. "I have something for you too. I should have given it to you before, but I didn't know when. And the thing is.. I'm not afraid anymore. You know what I mean?" She asked before he sets the present down. "Of course I do." Her smile lifts as they let their lanterns fly into the air, and Yakko begins to sing. "All those days, chasing down a daydream. All those years living in a blur. All that time never truly seeing things the way they were. Now she's here shining in the starlight. Now she's here, suddenly I know. If she's here, it's crystal clear; I'm where I'm meant to go." They both hold hands and begin to go into a duet.
"And at last I see the light." Yakko takes over and cupped her cheek. "And it's like the fog has lifted." Then they began to get back into the duet. "And at last I see the light." And Carrie laid her eyes on him, knowing her closure was in reach. "And it's like the sky is new." Then they begin to finish their duet. "And it's warm, and real, and bright. And the world has somehow shifted.. All at once, everything looks different, now that I see you." Yakko and Carrie leaned in slowly and felt a euphoric rush. "Now that I see you.." Then they share a tender kiss under the many lights beneath them. After a couple of seconds they pulled away and Yakko whispered "Happy Anniversary darling.."
