Unlike Archie Monday, who waited patiently and with understanding for Mac to come around to making the big commitment, Chelsea Adams yearned for more stability in her life. Why wouldn’t she? David understood. Her brother disappeared shortly after high school, to turn up after several years living as a recluse in an abandoned castle on top of the mountain. Chelsea’s mother died shortly after his disappearance. To add to the family upheaval, her first love had broken her heart. The fact that he was the first love who had broken her heart compounded his guilt. Who would have thought that fifteen years later we would reconcile? David welcomed Mac and Archie’s engagement with mixed emotions. He was happy for them, but anxious about what it would mean for him and Chelsea. Is she going to start chomping at the bit for us to walk down the aisle, too? I love her, but am I ready for that? With anxiety, David would take note every time his lovely lady with platinum blonde waves would cast her pale blue eyes at him while she thought he was sleeping.
