We're Gonna Make It ~ 6
CJ's apartment, 6:00pm Friday..........
Rouge.'"
"Okay, 'Sleepless in Seattle is such a sappy movie, so I think 'Moulin
Rouge' will be the one we watch."
"I don't think 'Sleepless in Seattle' is sappy! It's so romantic. Two
people who meet on top of the Empire State Building..." She sighed. "Okay,
'Moulin Rouge.' I like that movie too." She smiled as she led Toby to the
sofa. She put the movie in the deck and sat down with him and got the
remote and pressed play.
When the movie ended, Toby noticed that CJ had fallen asleep with her head on his shoulder. He smiled a little. He would never admit it, but he actually liked the fact that CJ was 'the one.' He carefully put a hand on her head, "CJ," he said quietly, "The movie's over."
"Hmm?"
"I said the movie's over."
"Oh." She noticed where her head was and quickly sat up. She didn't want to make him think she was basically in love with him. "Good movie, huh," she asked as she yawned.
"Well, I thought it was good, but you fell asleep half way through it."
"I did?"
"Yeah."
"Oh. Well, I probably liked the second half in my sleep."
"What?"
"Um, nothing. Never mind." She blushed a little. "So, I guess this is the
end of our date for tonight."
"Not quite yet."
"What do you mean?"
He leaned over and kissed her.
She kissed him back.
"So that's what you meant," she said as the kiss ended.
"That and I have something I need to tell you."
"What?" She feared that he didn't really like her.
"I...uh...I love you CJ." He said quietly.
She smiled. "Thank you."
"Thank you? CJ, I just said I love you, and you say thank you?"
Her eyes widened. "I'm sorry, that's not what I meant. I meant to say that I..." She looked down, took a deep breath, and looked back up at Toby. "I love you too." She smiled softly.
"You do?"
"Yes, I do." She kissed him.
He kissed her back, only more passionately.
She wrapped her arms around his neck as she continued to kiss him.
"Okay," he said as they slowly ended the kiss. "Now I know what you meant."
He smiled.
"Yeah, that's what I meant."
"One thing."
"What's that?"
"What are we going to tell everyone at work?"
"I think they pretty much know that something is going on between us," she
said as she snuggled next to him.
"Yeah, but the press, they don't know."
"Toby, the personal lives of the senior staff are confidential. I thought
you knew that."
"Well I do, but you know the press."
"Yes, and I will simply say 'no comment.'"
He nodded, "Okay." He put his arm around her so that she could lay her head
on his shoulder again.
She yawned again. "Sorry," she said.
"Why?"
"I don't know. My yawning seems to be causing a bit of a problem. Here we
are, getting very romantic, and I'm falling asleep on you."
"I don't mind that."
"You don't?"
"No."
She smiled and put her head on his shoulder again. "I wish we could stay
like this forever."
"Yeah."
"Toby?"
"Hmm?"
"Will you stay here tonight? I mean, we don't have to..."
"I know what you mean, and yes."
"Really?"
"Sure. It is the weekend."
"Yeah, it is." She closed her eyes and slowly drifted off to sleep, her
head on Toby's shoulder.
Toby stayed awake for a little while longer thinking of what to do.
Finally, he too, fell asleep, his head on both the sofa and CJ's head. He
knew what he was going to do.
