Cameron hears the front door open and close and then the ring of the keys in the bowl on the desk next to the door. "Cameron?" a familiar Aussie yells down the long hallway.
"In the bedroom," she replies. Chase walks down the hallway and appears in the doorway to see Cameron reading on the end of the bed. He smiles when he sees the title: Twilight.
"Oh God, you are reading that book too?" he asks as he plops down on the overly familiar bed next to her. "All my nurses are constantly talking about it."
"Yeah, they were the ones that got me hooked," she smiles back. He grins and looks over her shoulder. With a quick little reach, he snatches it out of her hand and stands up with teasing facial expression. She returns the face and jumps up after him.
"Chase, give it back!" she pleads with a laugh.
"Hmmm, let me think about that…" he replies, "no!" Chase laughs and starts to run around the room. Cameron chases after him as he runs down the hallway and then into the living room, laughing. She follows him around for a while in innumerable attempts to get the book back. He goes around the couch with Cameron gaining ground. She decides to stop and change direction to corner him. Her idea worked and she caught him. Using his height to an advantage, Chase holds the book up where Cameron couldn't reach it. Cameron stops and comes across the idea to poke him. She does, and as he inverts the book becomes in her space to reach it and grabs it.
"No fair!" he says instantly.
"Sorry, I play to win," Cameron says with a grin while sticking her tongue out at him. She starts to run away but Chase predicts her move and wraps two arms around her waist. He picks her off the ground and swings her around toward the sofa.
"Ahhhh, Chase! Now that is no fair!" She can barely articulate between her laughs.
"Sorry, I play to win too!" he replies. Chase grabs a hold of her knees and swings her around so he can carry her wedding style over to the couch. He sets her down while dropping himself next to her in his favorite spot, the corner. The game has officially ended as Cameron nestles herself against Chase's chest.
"Why, don't we watch a movie or something? Uptown Girls or 27 Dresses?" Cameron asks.
"Oh Cameron, I don't know, a good chick flick does sound appealing but..." This comment earns himself a slap on the chest.
"C'mon Chase. Don't be a baby. They so aren't chick flicks." Cameron retorts.
"How 'bout we just watch some TV or something."
"Fine. A new Grey's Anatomy is on anyway." She says while looking into his gorgeous baby blue eyes.
"Ohhh greah! That is definitely not a chick show. So much better." He says with a grin.
"Haha, very funny. Is The Office okay?" She questions.
"That'll work." He replies.
"You always get what you want," she laughs out.
"You know it!" Chase says with one of those wide smiles that makes girls go weak at the knees. Cameron reaches for the remote and turns on the TV and snuggles into him even more. Twilight has its benefits, she thought with an internal smile.
