*** This I made because I think that like Race and Estella should totally get back
together.. but what would really happen with Jessie and all if that came true? Could it actually be For The Best?

NOTE: I put in a big repeat of a few lines throughout this, it may get annoying, but I think
it helps create a mood. :)

FOR THE BEST?
by Andrea Bloom

        Race gazed into Estella's beautiful jade-green eyes, and stroked her lovely scarlet-
red hair. He loved her. He knew that. But did she still love him?
        Estella looked into Race's baby-blue eyes, and gazed into his caring, loving smile.
She loved him. She knew that. But did he still love her?
        Race and Estella sat there, gazing into each other's eyes. Neither knew exactly
what to say to each other... so they just... stared. Stared long and hard into each other's
eyes. Race leaned closer to Estella, leaning over to kiss her. He closed his eyes.
        Estella closed her eyes. She waited for Race's lips to press against hers. She 
allowed him to kiss her. Their lips met in a passionate embrace. But to Estella's surprise, 
something cold touched her ring finger. It was a diamond ring. She gasped (in a good 
way!). She looked up at him, laughed, and smiled. He smiled back.
        "Estella, will you...um.. RE-marry me?" he laughed.
        "Yes," she smiled.

        "It's not fair! I like it here!"
        "Jessie, we thought this was what you wanted.. for us to get back together."
        "Well.. it is what I want... but I don't see why I have to leave!"
        "Jess, honey.. come on, please, try to understand tha--"
        "Understand? Understand?! You come here, and take me away from the only
home I've ever had? And YOU want ME to understand?!"
        And with that Jessie ran off to her room. After all, it may be the last time she spent 
there. Race and Estella looked at each other sadly.
        "And we thought she'd be so happy.... this is all my fault.. I was never there for her
when she needed me the most." said Estella, as she started to cry.
        "Estella, Jessie just needs some time. Besides, she can visit often. We won't be that far away." said Race, comforting her.
        "I hope so." she replied.
        And so Race had a heart-to-heart talk with Jessie. Nothing seemed to help. But once Race explained she could visit very often, and even join the Quests on some 
adventures, Jessie was convinced. Now another hard part, explaining to the rest of the 
guys that, well... they needed a new bodyguard.

        After much discussion, Race, Estella, and Jessie were on their way to a new home.
Jessie looked, still sadly, at the Quest Compound. She loved her parents, and the Quest
Compound was okay, but she could admit only to herself the REAL reason she didn't want
to go... she was in love with Jonny. She didn't want to leave him. She loved him. She 
knew that. But did he feel the same way about her?
        Jonny Quest stared out the window with a heavy heart. The love of his life had just
left him. Of course he was happy for Race and Estella, but he knew, even with just some
*visits*, it couldn't take the place of the hole in his heart. Jessie. The more he thought 
about her, the more he missed her. He loved her. He knew that. But how could he tell if
she loved him too?

        "Dad, please, can we go back.. I-I-I forgot something there!" begged Jessie.
        "Well, why didn't ya say so?" Race grinned. He made a U-turn, and headed back
for the Quest Compound. Jessie smiled. Piece of cake.

        Upon arrival at the Quest Compound, Jessie ran inside to Jonny's room. Race and
Estella waited in the car, smoochin away :)  Jessie reached Jonny's room, and let herself in.
Jonny was in the middle of putting on his shirt. When he saw Jessie, he immediately threw 
his shirt on, and rushed by her, and gave her such a big hug!
        "Jess! You're back!"
        "Only for a few minutes.."
        "Why'd you come back? Forget something?"
        "Yeah.."
        "What?"
        She pulled herself closer to him. "To tell you that I love you." She smiled sweetly.
        "Really?" he asked, smiling, laughing a bit.
        "Yeah." she smiled.
        "Well..." He gave her a sweet and passionate kiss on the lips. "I love you too."
