Jeva at LOWHAD
Reva: This is no good.
Josh: This is good. This is the best thing in the whole world.
Reva: You have to let me go.
Josh: No.
Reva: But this is only gonna make it more painful later on...
Josh: I'm sorry, I don't even know what you're talking about.
Reva: When the jury...
Josh: No. No, we’re not even gonna think about that, Reva.
Reva: I have to. I could be sentenced to years in jail.
Josh: It’s not gonna happen there’s no point in even talking about it.
Reva: I can't help it. I can't be without you. I can't live my life without you.
Josh: Reva, we will always be together. Wherever you are, that's where I'm gonna be.
Reva: Wishing it doesn't make it okay...
Josh: Don't you get it yet? Don't you get it? Reva, this isn’t about wishing. This isn’t about empty words that are going to make both of us feel better. We are going to be together. The way we were supposed to be. The way were always supposed to be. Reva, even when I thought you were dead, I never gave up on us. You can ask anybody that was around then. They’ll tell you. If you don’t wanna believe me, go ahead, go ahead ask them. They tried to tell me that you were dead... that I had to get over you...that I had to get on with my life. And you know something? I put on a pretty good act for a while. I even fooled myself. But I'm gonna tell you this, and this is very real. I never once, not for one minute, ever gave up on our life together. Not where it counts. Not in here (in his heart) and not here (in his mind). You were dead and I didn't give up on us. So I'll be damned if I’m gonna give up on us now. Not now when we are so close to being able to hold each other. Not now when we are so close to having everything that we always wanted. I’ll be damned if we’re not gonna get through this. We’re gonna be together. I swear to you.
Reva: Just kiss me...
Josh: What?
Reva: Just....kiss me.
Cross Creek Reunion '97
Josh: I can’t believe we’re really here. Together. Where it all started. My heart… my love.
Reva: You know something? I can’t help thinking this is a dream that I’m gonna wake up from and realize I’m still on trial facing going to prison never to be able to touch you again or hold you in my arms.
Josh: It’s not a dream. All the pain, all the loneliness, all the longing is gone. Nothing will ever come between us again.
Josh: There’s so much I want to say. I feel like…
Reva: A kid on a Christmas morning.
Josh: Yeah. Yeah. Like I’ve just been handed the most wonderful gift. You.
Reva: You know what? A few days ago I was going through a bunch of my old stuff that Mama kept for me for years. Because I didn’t really know how the trial was gonna come out or if….if I would…
Josh: Reva, let’s not go there okay?
Reva: No, no it’s okay. Really it is. Just let me finish. I found the most incredible stuff. The first corsage you ever gave me.
Josh: Senior prom.
Reva: The notice in the paper when Harlan brought you into Lewis Oil. He was so proud of you. So was I.
Josh: You kept that article all these years, huh?
Reva: I kept everything Bud. Everything.
Josh: Uh oh. Looks like a note.
Reva: Oh no, no. This is a poem that I wrote. I wrote all kinds of poems about you.
Josh: (reading) “Joshua Lewis is the cutest. And his eyes are the bluest.”
Reva: Come on, I was eight years old.
Josh: It’s good.
Reva: I wrote so many poems about you and I hid them all up in our Ranger’s Station. All of them.
Josh: What is this on the back here? “When I’m with Bud, everyday is like Christmas.”
Reva: That’s never changed. Never. I’ll keep this. I keep it.
Josh: Do you have any idea how much I’ve missed you?
Reva: Yeah.
Josh: I was so afraid. I told you that I would never let you go, that I wouldn’t let them take you away from me but I was so scared. I didn’t know if I could do it. I didn’t know if the doctor wouldn’t testify or if Annie would, ya know, come up with another lie and I didn’t want to let you down. I couldn’t do that to you.
Reva: And you didn’t. You didn’t. ~small Jeva kiss~
Josh: Why don’t I build a fire or something. I’ll get some wood.
Reva: No…no…no. Just hold me. Just hold onto me.
Josh: What month is this?
Reva: June.
Josh: Well you were right ya know. It feels like Christmas.
Josh: Are you warmed up yet?
Reva: Getting warmer.
Josh: Are you hungry? I’m just kinda wondering if there’s anything in the refrigerator.
Reva: Yeah that’s a great idea.
Josh: Maybe some eggs or something.
Reva: Uh huh. Why don’t I go fix you an omelet?
Josh: You could make me an omelet. That would be great.
Reva: Uh huh. The only problem with that though is that you’d have to let go of me.
Josh: That’s definitely a problem.
Reva: So, what do you think we should do?
Josh: I have an idea. Stay here for one second. Little surprise. ~Puts on their wedding song~ Better than an omelet huh?
Reva: Way better. ~Jeva dance~
Reva: Joshua?
Josh: Yes ma’am?
Reva: The music has stopped.
Josh: Not for me.
Reva: You know what? I think it’s this place. This place is magical for us.
Josh: Do you remember the first time we ever made love here?
Reva: Uh huh. It was after a midnight swim, in front of a roaring fireplace.
Josh: Well I was just thinking maybe it’s time to get a roaring fire going. How would that be? Remember how it used to be? We’d get all hot and sweaty in front of that fire. I’d have to take some ice cubes and…
Reva: Yeah, yeah, yeah. I remember what you’d have to do. Okay go. Go and get your logs.
Josh: I’ll be right back.
Reva: You better hurry…hurry. Hurry!
Josh: I will hurry.
Reva: (looking at the pictures on the mantle) Harlan. Mama. You finally got your wish. Josh and I are together again. And this time it’s for keeps.
~Jeva run into each other and Josh drops the wood~
Reva: You scared me. Come in! You need help?
Josh: No, I got it. I’m good. I got it.
Reva: Okay. You know something? If a woman had to wait for you to set the logs, she could freeze to death.
Josh: You think you can do better?
Reva: I know I can do better. Heat and me go way back.
Strip Poker
Josh: You know what I was thinkin'? I was thinkin' that we should sorta pick up where we left off.
Reva: Yeah?
Josh: Yeah. You had a full house and I was about to lose my pants and you were about to take off yours.
Reva: You still really wanna play poker?
Josh: Actually, maybe not.
Reva: Because I was actually feeling very lucky.
Josh: Really?
Reva: I don't think I was gonna lose my pants. In fact, I think I was going to win yours.
Josh: Excuse me, but in the game of strip poker you don't actually win the other person's clothes.
Reva: Since when?
Josh: That's the way it's always been.
Reva: I don't remember that rule.
Josh: Now if you wanna play another game we could play three minutes to heaven. Remember that?
Ya go in the closet and ya kinda trade clothes.
Reva: I'll give you three minutes to heaven.
Josh: Will you?
Reva: Come here!
Josh: Well I'm thinking we only have about 2 1/2 minutes left so why don't we change the rules?
Reva: Yeah?
Josh: How's this? I take off your clothes, you take off my clothes and we leave our clothes off for the rest of our lives.
Reva: Why am I not surprised, Bud?
Josh: Because you know me too well.
Reva: I could never know you too well.
Josh: Have I told you yet that I love you?
Reva: I think you told me once, when you had that straight flush earlier. *g*
Josh: Yeah? Well, I think I'm getting another straight flush.
Reva: I can see that.
Josh: You know something? You're fun.
Reva: You're fun, too. You are a hell of alot of fun.
Josh: I love you.
Reva: I love you, too.
Josh: I love you more.
Reva: You always have to one up me don't you?
Josh: Always, yes.
Reva: Always is right.
Family Wedding
Josh: You okay?
Reva: I can honestly say I don't think I've ever been happier. We've come full circle, Bud. We've had to deal with a lifetime of pain and hurt. But we're back where we belong at the beginning together. Just like it was meant to be.
Josh: I gotta tell you something, this idea of yours coming here with the kids, this marriage ceremony, it's the best idea you've ever had.
Reva: Yeah, well short of getting married in the first place...
Josh: Yes, yes..
Reva: ...and producing those two little munchkins. I can't wait to be Mrs. Joshua Lewis again.
Josh: I don't think the divorce is gonna take that long to go through. I can understand though why the kids thought that.
Reva: Yeah well they weren't the only one.
Josh: This is a crazy idea but why don't we stay married this time? How would that be?
Reva: Alright!! Only if something does go wrong you have to promise me something. That you won't marry another nutcase because Sonni and Annie caused enough trouble for the rest of our lives. Okay?
Josh: If you kiss me, you've got a deal.
Reva: You've got a deal. It's so good to be in your arms again. And the best part is that we don't have to hide our feelings anymore. We can hold hands in public and we can kiss in public...
Josh: That's right. We can make out whenever the mood strikes us.
Reva: (Jeva kiss) Why'd you stop?
Josh: I think the mood is striking.
Reva: I know.
Josh: This just is not exactly what I had in mind for our wedding night.
Reva: Well I'm game, what did you have in mind?
Josh: I have a whole bunch of good stuff that I'm thinking about but none of it includes an audience if you know what I'm saying.
Reva: Oh, well why don't we tuck our little darlings into bed and pick up right where we left off?
Josh: I like the way your mind thinks, Mrs. Lewis.
Reva: Thank you Mr. Lewis. Have I ever told you that I do my best thinking while being kissed?
Josh: Well get ready because I am gonna kiss your brains out.
Reva: This night has been so wonderful.
Josh: It's not over yet.
Reva: Do you remember when we sent the kids to Tulsa to be with Rusty during the trial?
Josh: No, no, no let's not go there.
Reva: No, I have to say this. It was a moment when I really thought that I was never going to see them again. And I thought I was saying goodbye to my kids and my freedom. The one man I've loved since the moment I ever even knew what love was.
Josh: It's in the past. It's over.
Reva: I know. I know that. I just hope that God knows how grateful I am that He answered my prayers and that we're a family again.
Josh: Well, I'll tell you what, you're not the only one who's grateful around here. I did alot of praying myself. From the moment you disappeared from our lives, I prayed everyday that you would come back to me and the kids.
Reva: I seem to remember you being just a might bit angry at first.
Josh: When you came back? I was angry at myself for giving up and for thinking I could just hand my heart to someone else.
Reva: What was that song? "If I Could Put Time in a Bottle?" If I could, I'd save this moment forever. I would.
