What She Wanted: Post Ep.: Han

What the hell?! Amy thought.
Why would he go and ruin a perfectly good thing like that?! An hour ago they were doing the stupid flirting thing they do, both knowing he'd come over tonight and Henry wouldn't even get up off his bed in the living room when Josh came in. Why did Josh have to want more? Things couldn't just—be?! She had an office to run! She had a freakin' agenda! This is why she hadn't married that other D.C. Asshole, she didn't want another job! She just wanted…sigh..she just wanted JOSH!
She wanted him to kiss her shoulders, where she still had a few of the freckles she had been covered in as a little girl…She wanted him to protectively- not possessively- lay his arm across her as they slept under her warm cotton sheets. She wanted to walk into her kitchen late at night when he came home- in her plain black bra and panties-with her cowboy boots and her cowboy hat on and she wanted him to stop making the coffee and follow her. She wanted their lazy Sundays of sex and cartoons and political banter-maybe they could make dinner together…But she didn't want to be coddled or held when she lost a vote…she didn't want to baby him or feed his ego every time his father-his sister-Roselyn- came up. She thought they were fine- just the way they were!
Donna hadn't bothered putting on her new Calvin Klein gown for the recital. Why bother? She'd be running around working half the night, Amy would be there, looking gorgeous she was sure, and Josh wouldn't look at anyone else all evening….
She had decided she didn't really need all that tonight. She'd go home and order some pasta and some passionfruit gelato from the Italian place by her apartment. She'd throw in Philadelphia Story for the thousandth time, finish up her paperwork and fal asleep by the time Hephurn sang "...Goooodnight little Men!!..."
Donna snapped out of her little fantasy of a plan for her evening when Amy turned the corner, peeking into Josh's office, clearly looking for him.
"Any idea where he is Donna?"
"He already went into the recital….You look nice this evening"
"Thanks." Amy replied and began to walk out into the lobby before turning back and walking towards Donna. "Why aren't you dressed up? Aren't you going?"
I'm surprised you noticed.
"Oh sure, I just wasn't up to it tonight. Long day." Donna smiled up at Amy, begging her to accept this excuse.
Amy nodded, looked Donna up and down "she looked tired.." then Amy walked off to the recital, off to Josh…
They will argue a lot, and josh will follow her home.. about to follow her brain to a place that she didn't particularly enjoy going Donna stopped, changing her little day dream into what she wanted to happen ( isn't that what daydreams are for?) Josh would follow Amy home, giver her a kiss on the cheek goodbye, tell her it had been grand but he was ready for..the real thing.. Donna..and he would race over to Donna's apartment, knock on the door, and she would answer sleepily..and he would wake her up with a soft, passionate kiss, a kiss that told her "all this time I was in love with you too".. Donna sighed. Ha! As if she would ever get what she wanted…
