The next morning Mike rolls over to see Abby is gone, he quickly sits up and looks around for something of hers that is still there but can't see anything.
MIKE: Fuck!
Meanwhile Abby is trying to be very quiet in the kitchen finishing up breakfast for her new man. She puts it all together on a tray and starts walking towards the room where they just made love the night before. Boy, he was amazing she thinks to herself and smiling.
ABBY: Good morning sunshine. Smiling
MIKE: Don't do that to me Abby, I thought you had left.
ABBY: OK just because you taught me to think more like a man's man does not mean I am going to act like that!
MIKE: What have you got there?
ABBY: Well, let's see I have got some eggs, bacon, pancakes, and some orange juice.
MIKE: I didn't mean that. Winks Put that tray down and come over here, oh, and bring syrup. Chuckles
ABBY: This sounds interesting. Walks over to the bed
Mike grabs Abby and pulls her into bed. They make fun love, but without the syrup b/c Abby thought it was too sticky. Now holding each other in the aftermath.
ABBY: sighs
MIKE: What it is? Did I please you?
ABBY: Would you stop, jeeze! Playful hit to his stomach
MIKE: Ugh! So what is going to happen with the show now, since everyone knows I know am not that type of guy?
ABBY: I am sure we can think of something. You still are a man right?
MIKE: Oh baby, more of a man then you will ever know!
ABBY: So what's on the agenda for today? cell phone rings- Hold that thought. Talking on the phone- Yes Okay but .but fine 20 min I will be there!
MIKE: What was that about?
ABBY: John wants me at the station like now! Oh by the way he wants you there too!
MIKE: What?
ABBY: Yep you! Now get up!
They get to the station. Everyone watches when they walk in, knowing what happened the day before. Mike smiles and grabs Abby's hand tightly letting her know silently they are a team now. She squeezes his hand back to acknowledge him.
ABBY: So what's up?
SARAH: John wants the 2 of you in his office pronto!
MIKE: to Abby only- This is going to be interesting chuckles
They walk into John's office and sit down right in front of him. He closes the door.
ABBY: So what's up John?
JOHN: What's UP?!?! Abby I told you I wanted the guy back I didn't tell you to get him for yourself!
MIKE: Hold up John, this is nothing she did I did it!
ABBY: Umm, as I recall it was both of us, but that is neither here nor there. I have ideas
JOHN: Ideas??? This guy, no offense Mike, is no longer believable as a ladies man since he is now with you.
MIKE: True I am with Abby now, but that does not mean I don't know what "single" men are thinking and what they like.
ABBY: See. He can still do this John. I know he can!
JOHN: Okay, but we are going to have to see how the ratings work out.
MIKE: shake his hand- I've got this in the bag, trust me. He winks
Mike and Abby leave the office. They walk down the hall to her office and she shuts the door behind her, then grabs Mike and kisses him.
MIKE: what was that for Ab?
ABBY: Oh nothing you are just so freakin' sexy!
MIKE: Abby I need to go.
ABBY: What why?
MIKE: I can't do this at work, I won't be able to think all day.
ABBY: Maybe that's what I want. She grins
Mike walks out of her office to get ready for The Ugly Truth. While, getting make-up and hair done, he spots Abby walk by. He thinks to himself " I thought I would be a bachelor the rest of my like, but now I have something to look forward to everyday when I wake up. Smiles to himself, as Abby walks over
ABBY: And what are you so smug about mister.
MIKE: Oh just think about last night, this morning, and tonight.
ABBY: Oh so you think you're getting lucky tonight do ya?
MIKE: I didn't say that. He walks away to go onset
Abby wonders what Mike means by that and then laughs it off.
Abby gets home from work, checks on her answering machine to see there are two messages on her phone. She smiles and presses the button.
First message: Hey babe, (it's Mike, she smiles again) I have a surprise for you its hanging in your closet. Just take your shower, and put it on. I will be there at 7, be ready.
Second message: Umm Abby, (holy cow it's Colin) I just wanted to say I am sorry for being a jerk. I would like to take you out some time, and this time lets just be ourselves. I really would like to get to know the real Abby.
Abby thinks to herself "what the hell???" Then she hears the doorbell ring it's only 6 maybe Mike is early. She opens the front door smiling and sees Colin standing there.
ABBY: Colin, what are you doing here?
COLIN: Did you get my message?
ABBY: I did, but listen
COLIN: Abby, I shouldn't have left that night. I know that now. I made a mistake.
Just then Mike is standing in the doorway, of course he would be early.
MIKE: What is going on here Abby?
COLIN: What is he doing here?
ABBY: Both of you hold up! Colin I was trying to tell you that I am with Mike now and he makes me happy. He has always liked me for who I was not who I was pretending to be.
COLIN: Oh! Now don't I feel like the fool.
ABBY: Colin, we were not right for one another. However, I do have someone could introduce u to. That is only if you want to.
MIKE: I don't think Colin needs a matchmaker Abby.
ABBY: Well, I was just saying.
MIKE: - ushering Colin out the front door- I am sorry about this man, you know Abby and her ideas.
COLIN: It's OK.
MIKE: See you later Colin. Have a good night. Mike shuts the front door, now he and Abby are alone. OK what's going on here?
ABBY: I thought it was you at the door.
MIKE: Why would Colin come over?
ABBY: Apparently, he wanted a second chance, he left a message on my phone.
MIKE: I know if I were him I would have never let you go, but he did and I win. he smiles
ABBY: Yes you do. smiles back I was just about to jump in the shower and slip into whatever you have for me upstairs. By the way how did you get into my house?
MIKE: Sarah gave me the key I told her I had a surprise for you. I was wondering if that shower appointment has room for one more? dangerous smile spreads across his face
ABBY: I will have to check. she laughs and starts run up the stairs - Last one in the shower has to do anything the other wants.
They get into the shower. The wash water washes over them. Mike beings washing Abby with a sponge, and she is enjoying it.
ABBY: Mmm, Mike ah!
MIKE: Do you like that? whispers in her ear
ABBY: Yes - she breaths out
They begin to make-love in the shower and then take it out to the bedroom. Abby hasn't had a guy in her bed for almost a year now.
ABBY: - looks over at Mike after sex , she smiles and sighs I could just lay here the rest of the evening even though it's only 7:30.
MIKE: Who says we have to go anywhere? I could just make you dinner here and we could just stay in our robes.
ABBY: That sounds lovely, but I was looking forward to wearing that sexy dress you bought me.
MIKE: You could always wear it just for me says smiling
ABBY: What did you have planned for tonight?
MIKE: Just a nice dinner, you know, romantic and all the junk.
ABBY: Why Mikes what's gotten into you?
MIKE: Not in me so much as on me. he laughs and holds her tightly to him
ABBY: Just when I think you are a romantic.
MIKE: Oh come on, it was good timing you must admit that.
ABBY: - laughs, she feels his breath on her neck I have some chicken in the fridge. Are you any good at grilling?
MIKE: Are you really asking me that? I am the master of grilling! on that note he gets up, she sees his hot tight ass. He then throws on some sweatpants and no shirt, just the way Abby likes it bare chested.
Abby finally gets up from the comfortable bed and puts on Mike's button down shirt with some boy shorts underneath. She walks downstairs to see Mike is already grilling. She decides to boil some corn on the cob and make some rice. While she is making the rice she feels arms wrap around here.
MIKE: God, you look so sexy in my shirt. Do you have to do this to me?
ABBY: What am I doing to you Mike? gives a sly smile
MIKE: Oh you know exactly what you are doing to me! You are evil!
ABBY: I have no idea what you are talking about. she laughs
7 months later
Mike has sold his house and moved in with Abby. Abby is making something for dinner before Mike gets home from a meeting he had. She has been suspecting she was pregnant so she took a test when she got home and has just found out it is positive. She can hear Mike walk in and she is so excited to tell him the news.
ABBY: Mike?
