Felicity and Gus

   During the second season of Avonlea, we were introduced
to Gus Pike, a poor but kindhearted sailor who only wanted an
education.  Hetty King, the school teacher at the time, helped
him along the way...But he wasn't the only one.  Felicity King
was always there as well.
   Over the years, we watched Felicity and Gus's fondness of each
other blossom into love.  Even through other potential suitors
of Felicity (the main ones being Arthur Pettibone and Stuart
McRae)it became evident that thes two were meant to be together.

   I don't know about any of you, but over the years, I
found myself becoming obsessed with their romance.  I
cried when Gus left to go back to see, and even more so
when Felicity received word that Gus was "dead".  I really
thought it was over, that they were never going to be able
to be together.  Even so, I could never except Stuart McRae.
I just kept thinking, "But he's so OLD!  I'd rather her be
with Arthur!"...But then Felcity found out Gus was actually
alive, though blind now.  Like Felicity, the fact that he
was blind didn't even bother me.  I was just glad he was
back.

   What better way to end the series than to have them
get married!  Ironically enough, that's exactly how I
pictured the series ending!  It's too bad we couldn't
see them have childern, but I bet all you Felcity and
Gus fans like me can imagine it up!...I really don't
have much more to say about this.  I'm just glad
everything worked out for them...Um, I guess that's
it!  Thanks for coming!
