Eve
and Chris Flashback Moment

This week's flashback comes from December of 1997. Chris and Eve
shared a dinner together that Eve cooked and over martinis the two settled
down on the sofa to discuss Christmas magic that somehow transpired into
a kiss.
(Chris has been listening to Eve rather intently as she goes on and
on about the magic of Christmas. He explains he's rather cynical
about the world around him to which Eve continues on further about the
joys of Christmas)
Eve: (very animated as she talks) I still believe that magical things
can happen at Christmas. I mean I've seen it happen to other people
and I refuse to deny myself the possibility that maybe something unexpected
and exciting and magical could happen at Christmas.
Chris: (disbelieving) Exciting and magical?
Eve: Like in a Christmas in Connecticut when the visiting soldier grabs
Barbara Stanwick (Chris is smiling slightly) and kisses her in the horse
drawn sleigh under the moonlight, you know?
Chris: I never had you pegged for a closet romantic.
Eve: Don't knock it until you've tried it.
Chris: Maybe you're right. (With that he leans across the sofa and kisses
her. The kiss deepens and they part for a second as she looks at
him before kissing him again. Finally they part and Chris looks at her)
Is that anything like you were talking about?
Eve: (lets out a sigh as she turns slightly) That was uh, somewhere
in the ballpark. (They two look at one another for a moment as she
looks a bit on edge)
