The Final Three

It has come down to three beautiful ladies, Elizabeth Webber, Felicia Jones, and Marlena Evans. However, soon Ethan Ling must choose one to propose to. Unbeknownst to any of the three ladies, Ethan Ling is really a disguise and he had remembered who he really was, he was John Black.

A little bit about Ethan. Ethan woke up feeling confused not knowing how he got where he was. He just knew he was an engineer who graduated from a prestigious West Coast Ivy League school.

Ethan got ready for his date with Liz for a winery tour in Napa and then dinner.

As he left the hotel to meet up with Liz, he made sure he had the bouquet of a dozen roses.

Meanwhile Liz who was wearing a V-neck top, was putting the finishing touches, making sure everything was in order and went down to the lobby to get the ride to meet Ethan.

Before long both were on their way to meet up at the winery. However, Liz had no idea that she was about to be eliminated.

When Ethan saw Liz he was astounded.

"Liz did I tell you that you look sensational?"

"Why thank you Ethan, you look pretty dashing yourself."

During the winery tour the two snuck in kisses whenever they could. That night they had dinner complete with a violin and the wine that was given to them as a gift.

"Ethan I know that you have dates with Felicia and Marlena, but I wanted to let you know that I really feel a connection with you and you make me feel at ease."

"I am speechless. But one thing is for sure and that is you have really opened up and I really appreciate that."

At the end of the date he and Liz went back to the hotel and spent the night in their separate rooms as Liz declined.

The very next morning, Ethan got ready for his date with Felicia. They were to meet up at a small airport and fly to Tahoe to do a bit of rock climbing.

During their climb, Felicia challenged Ethan to see who can reach the top of the mountain first, at a reasonably safe speed.

Ten minutes Ethan had caught up to Felicia, panting a bit.

"Wow you are good."

"Thank you. I actually learned how to climb from when I was in Port Charles. Emily Quartermaine, the adopted granddaughter of a late friend told me it was a good way to build endurance. So I started and was hooked."

After a period of resting and opening about their personal lives, they got ready for dinner at the bed and breakfast they were staying at.

Felicia had changed into a lilac sleeveless tee with a cream colored khaki.

"Felicia you look magnificent."

"Thank you. You look great too."

They walked a short distance with the picnic basket the chef and the owner of the bed and breakfast.

"I would like to say that today you showed me how daring you are and always up for a challenge and the fact you really opened up to me."

"Thank you Ethan, you did not do all that bad yourself."

"Let's toast to the perfect weather and to us."

Ethan and Felicia clinked glasses, drank, and enjoyed the food.

After dinner, Ethan and Felicia went back to their dwelling and spent the night together.

The next morning they said ciao and Ethan was on his way to Cabo San Lucas for his date with Marlena.

Ethan arrived at the location he was to meet Marlena holding a dozen red roses when he spotted her at the nearby café sipping ice tea. When he saw her his heart skipped a beat.

Perfect, her back is towards me. I will go up and surprise her from behind.

Ethan tip-toed the last few steps and managed to sneak right up and covered Marlena's eyes.

"Ethan is that you?"

"Yes my love it is me."

Marlena turned around and the two ended up in a lip-lock.

After their personal greeting, the two left for their day's activity, hang gliding. Since Ethan also taught hang gliding on the side, he got the opportunity to hang glide with Marlena in the same hang glide. Marlena was a bit nervous at first but eased up and enjoyed the scenery.

At the end Ethan declared, "You did great!"

"You think so?"

"Yes because you are awesome."

As they walked back to the hotel they chatted up a storm.

Right before dinner Ethan waited for Marlena, and suddenly she appeared in a baby blue low-cut neckline blouse matched with a white pencil skirt. When Ethan saw her his mouth dropped.

"Marlena, you look absolutely ravishing."

"I am glad you like it," said Marlena smiling.

During all of dinner Ethan could not keep his eyes off of Marlena.

As they dined on the best Mexican cuisine and got to know each other better, Marlena started thinking, He

reminds me of someone I once knew…could it be him?

After dinner ended the two went back to and decided to spend the night together at the fantasy suite.

The next day all three ladies and Ethan flew back to L.A. Ethan was informed that he had to have decision no later than when he arrived at the mansion residence. During the duration of the flight, Ethan looked at each of the lady's picture and thought about the activities they did and the chemistry he had with each one. By the time he got off the jet he had made up his mind.

Meanwhile Liz, Felicia, and Marlena had all arrived but not at the mansion at they were staying, instead at the mansion Ethan was staying at.

Liz wondered to herself, I wonder what is going on?

Soon they were informed that they were going to have an elimination right away rather than later that evening.

Wow that is kind of sudden and unexpected thought Felicia.

For some reason Marlena was not nervous.

Then Ethan arrived and it was time to face the music.

"I want to thank you ladies. I had fun hanging out with each one of you the past three days."

Ethan picked up the first flower twirled it in his hand and said, "Felicia."

Felicia let out a sigh of relief as she went up to accept her flower and went back to her position.

Ethan picked up the second flower scanned the two remaining ladies, narrowing his eyes and building suspense.

Liz thought, I just know he is going to pick me.

Ethan finally said, "Marlena."

Liz's mouth dropped as Marlena smiled and went up to receive her flower.

Liz knew it was time to say goodbye as she was now eliminated.

Ethan walked Liz outside and talked with her for a bit.

"I know that you are shocked but I felt that we just did not have enough chemistry between us."

"Well you had to do what you had to do."

"I am sorry, although I do wish you the best of luck."

Ethan opened the limo door and Liz got in and whispered goodbye as Ethan closed the door.

On the limo ride to the airport, Liz sat there pondering what could have gone wrong even as she put herself out there.

I guess I was not what he was looking for. Come to think of it he was not really my type.
