You and I
"I just wanted to tell you that I really like you. Like more then a friend, and I have liked you since the second you were carried through our door" he said quickly.
"Are you serious?" she asked still looking in the water.
"Yeah, it's absolutly true" he said.
"Well I really like you too. Most of that crying was for you" she said with a sad smile.
"Thanks, I think" he said laughing.
"So what do we do now?" she asked turning to look at him.
"What do you want to happen?" he asked as he looked into her eyes.
"I want you to kiss me" she said softly.
"I want to kiss you too" he whispered.
H leaned in closer to her. He kissed her softly on her lips. She put her arm around his sholder. They pulled back and looked deeply into each other's eyes.
"That was more perfect than I had imangined" she said after a moment.
He nodded.
"So are we a couple?" she asked.
"Only if you want to be" he said.
"You know I want to be" she said laughing.
"Then yes we are" he said joining her laughter.
"I just want to thank you for being you" she said getting serious.
"I'm glad Micky carried you in" he said softly.
"I want to tell you something" she said.
"What is it?"he asked.
"I am glad I met you but does that mean I'm glad about Fallon's death? It was so horrible but it brought so many good things in my life" she said.
"It's not bad, it's just honest. You can be sad, and maybe think of it as a sacrifice. If she hadn't of died maybe you would of or maybe kept on doing drugs and something else happen. If that hadn't of happned to her, you wouldn't be here with me" he said as he took her hand.
"I guess that puts it in a different perspective. I like to think that she is watching over me, and being happy for me" she said smiling.
Mike just smiled at her.
"What band were we going to see?" she asked.
"No band. I wad going to take you somewhere and tell you how I feel" he said.
She sighed.
"Man, you're groovy" she said laughing.
He laughed along with her.
"Do you want to go back and show them that you're okay?" he asked.
"I suppose" she said smiling.
He helped her up and they began to walk back hand in hand. They walked in the back door. Peter, Micky and Davy were waiting at the kitchen table. They all smiled when they walked in.
"So are you...." Davy asked trailing off.
"Yes we are going out" she said confidently.
They smiled.
"I want to thank y'all for putting up with me. I think I am over the worst of this crisis." she said grinning.
Mike and Cassidy sat down on the couch. Micky, Davy and Peter jumped up and sat close to them.
"You guys never played for me!" she announced.
"You played with us though" Davy said.
"But you never just played. I wanna hear you guys together" she said.
"Oh what do you want to hear?" Mike asked.
"The song you were working on the other night" she said as she bit her lip.
"It's not finished" he said blushing.
"What's wrong Mike?" she said grinning.
"Nothing" he said turning away.
"Just play!" she ordered.
The guys talked for a moment. Then they started to play "Sweet Young Thing." She layed back on the couch and listened. She was swept away by Mike's voice and the harmony of the others'.
"Cass?" they cried.
She shook and sat up.
"Sorry" she said smiling.
"Can we sing 'Sometime in the Morning'?" Micky asked.
"Yeah, have you heard that song Cass?" Davy asked.
"Nah, play it for me" she said as she layed back down.
"Sure thing babe" Peter said.
They began to play the song. Cassidy closed her eyes. She imagined all of the things Micky was singing about. She wanted somebody to sing a song like that about her.
"Cass? Are you okay?" Mike asked.
She kept her eyes closed but nodded.
