As we left Rev. part 7: 
'He took her chin in his hand, gently wiped away her tears, gazed longingly 
into her eyes and replied softly, "I do love you...." 

  
Part 8: 
  
Nick cupped her face in his hands and kissed her. Nat smiled into his eyes 
and then let her gaze shift to LaCroix, still standing at the bed. He 
smiled, warmly. 

"Nick, wait a minute, this is just a little too weird. You know, I......I 
think I need a break here. I need to.....to think.....clear my mind." 

"Sure, anything." 

"Fresh air. That's what I need.....fresh air." 

"Come on, I'll take you for a ride," Nick said as he stroked her face. 

Nat grabbed her clothes and traipsed, with the sheet trailing behind, to the 
bathroom to dress. LaCroix, his eyebrow raised, visually followed her 
descent down the stairs. 

"Who knew the truly lustrous and luscious pearl that lied beneath that hard 
shell!" Nick glared at him. "And Nicholas, do put on some trousers or had you 
planned to accompany the fair doctor in your present........condition?!" 

"I think it's time you left, LaCroix!" 

"Now? When it's gotten so interesting?" 

Nat entered the bedroom just as Nick finished dressing. "Are you ready? I 
thought we'd be alone by now, " she said, glancing at LaCroix.
 
"Why ever would you think that?" 

"Come on, Nat, let's go." As Nick started to lead her from the room, she 
turned towards LaCroix and pointed her finger at him, "YOU! STAY!" Without 
waiting for a look, or reply, they left. 

Alone in the room, LaCroix replied to the walls, "My, I do love a forceful 
woman!" 
  

Nick opened the caddy door for her. She got in and waited for him to close 
the door. 

"Nick.....Earth to Nick!" 

Nick awakened from his daze, "Sorry, did you just hear laughing?!" He went 
around got in and started the car. 

"Where to?" 

"Just drive." 

They drove in silence for some time. From Queen's Quay, Nick turned onto 
Yonge. The absence of sights and sounds and lights seemed strange on this 
street. Nat started talking. 

"Something's got to be done about him. He'll never let us have what we truly 
want." 

"What are you saying?" 

"Isn't there a way to ice him, knock him off, 86 him?" 

"Been there, done that, didn't work." 

"Oh Nick, I'm sorry. It's just that I love you so much and I can't see 
anyway it's gonna work." 

"Don't worry, I'll make it work. We'll make it work." 

Nat turned towards Nick and nestled her head on his shoulder. She placed her 
hand at the very top of his thigh, but when her fingers started to wander she 
pulled away, turned and sat back next to him. She arched her back, which 
garnered an appreciative glance from Nick and ran both hands through her 
hair. 

"There's something I've been meaning to ask you." 

"Anything." 

"Why a convertible? I know you're not in it for the tanning factor." 

"Flying! Here, sit forward in the seat, Now close your eyes and raise your 
arms." The car sped up a bit. "Do you feel it? Alright, so it's a poor 
comparison, but it's the closest I get without actually doing it. I can't 
just go jumping into the air whenever I want, now can I?!" 

"You gotta take me with you sometime!" 

"How about now?" 

"Now?!" 

"Sure, we've got all night," and placing his palm on his chest, he added, 
"and this Knight is surely yours. Sorry, I couldn't resist!" Nick turned 
right on Shuter St. and then onto Victoria, parked the car and came around 
to Nat's side. 

"Is the car safe here?" Nick shook his head and smiled. 

"Okay, how do we do this? I remember watching Superman and........." 

Nick scooped Nat up in his arms and they ascended into the night. 

"Oh Nick....WOW!!" 

Nat saw Toronto in a way she never had before. The CN Tower at night was an 
awesome sight, especially from this vantage point. The lake, the lights, the 
skyline! 

"Just how much concentration do you need to do this?" 

"Not too much, why?" 

She kissed him deeply, letting her tongue swirl around his. She pulled away 
slowly, gently raking her teeth along his lower lip. She looked into his 
eyes. 

"Nick! The sky!!" It was no longer quite as black as it should have been. 

"What time is it? I left my watch.....we gotta get back!" 

"It's alright, there's time." 

The descent back to the ground was as smooth as the ascent. Nick suggested 
that he'd ride in the trunk and Nat could drive back to his place. 

"I've got a better idea. Just how big is this trunk?!" 

Popping the lock, Nick took her hand and said, "After you, m'lady!"
