John went over the night’s list of songs, and then they sat at our table with us for the remaining fifteen minutes to drink a beer. Jesse gave us the programs with their pictures and a write-up on each member. I got Jesse and the guys to sign mine and put it away for safekeeping. I pulled the box with the leather bracelet out of my purse and handed it to Jesse. “I bought you something,” I said, handing Jesse the box. I was nervous as he looked at me and took the box out of my hand. “Bailey, what did you do?” he asked, looking at me. He opened it and took out the leather band, holding it up to check out the artwork on the stone. “Sweetheart, it’s fabulous; I love it,” he said, snapping it on his wrist. “It’ll remind me of you; it’s perfect. Every time I look at it, I’ll remember our time together.” He leaned over to give me a sweet kiss with such tenderness in his eyes. “I’m so glad you like it. I was hoping that it would remind you of this cruise,” I said, relieved.
