CJ followed Toby back to his office. He could tell that she wanted something by the look on her face.
"What do you want?" He turned and asked.
"What makes you think I want anything?" She smiled.
"Because you don't look at me that way unless you want something."
"I just want to be around you." She looked down and smiled.
"CJ..."
"I need your credit card."
"Why?"
"The dress." CJ smiled.
"Oh." He smiled and took out his wallet. "Now, this is want I want."
"You want? This is my dress!"
"I'm paying for it." He laughed.
"Toby!" CJ started to whine.
"Ok, here." Toby laughed and handed her the card.
"Now, don't go dress happy."
"I wouldn't dream of it." She kissed him quickly and started to run out.
"Carol!"
"Yeah boss."
"I'm leaving for a little while."
"What going on?"
"I'm getting my dress."
"Oh, can I come?"
"Why not." CJ laughed. "Get Donna, Margaret, Ginger, and Bonnie too. We'll make a day of it. Toby's paying."
"Ok, I'll go get them." Carol ran off.
"I won't go dress happy." CJ smiled. "I'll go money happy." CJ laughed and ran out to her car to wait for the women.
"Hey Toby." Sam walked into his office. "What's wrong?"
"CJ took my credit card." He looked down.
"So?"
"She also took all the secretaries."
"Toby." Sam walked over and patted him on the back.
"I'm thinking you're broke now."
"Yeah." Toby whined.
"Oh well, guess these things happen," Sam said, trying not to laugh.
"And what may I ask, is so funny?"
"You let CJ leave with your credit card and you're probably now broke."
"Shut up," he said quietly.
At the mall....
"Oh CJ, have we gone in here yet," Donna asked as she eyed a dress store.
"Hmm, I don't think so."
"Then let's go in," Carol said.
"Sounds good to me," Margaret said.
"Well okay then, CJ said.
They went into the store and found a beautiful dress. The girls made CJ try it on, much to her chagrin.
"It makes me look too tall," CJ said as she changed.
"No it doesn't!" Carol said. "I think it flatters you."
CJ walked out of the dressing room, "Well?"
"Wow," all five women said.
"Is it nice?" CJ asked.
"CJ, you look amazing." Donna answered. "What did Toby do to deserve you?" She smiled.
"He minds." She joked. "So, should I go with this one?"
"Do you like it?" Carol asked.
"I really do." She grinned. "I'll take it." She told the woman working there.
"Great." She smiled.
"After I come back from changing. We're all going out for steaks and drinks."
"Works for us." They all said as CJ went back and got changed. A couple of minutes later, CJ emerged. She looked so happy. While walking up to the cashier, she grabbed onto her stomach.
"You ok?" Carol asked.
"Yeah, I think I'm getting that stomach flu or something. It'll fine."
"Maybe you're pregnant." Donna laughed.
"Very funny. Toby and I are very safe."
"Maybe not 100% safe." Donna smirked.
"Shut up." CJ hit her and turned around.
"That will be five hundred dollars."
"Holy crap!" Margaret said stunned. "For a dress."
"Once in a life time." The clerk smiled.
"Well, at least Toby's paying for it." CJ smiled and handed over the credit card. "Shall we all eat." She said after they left the store. "I'm starving."
"But you just said you were feeling sick," Carol said.
"I feel better now. Let's go."
"Okay," Donna said as she looked at the others.
They went to a restaurant in the mall.
"The food here is so good," Ginger said as she took another bite of her salad.
"Yeah, it's great," Donna said. "CJ? What do you think?"
"I think it's...oh..." She bolted from the table to the bathroom, leaving the five women in a daze.
