Chapter 7: Laying Her Heart On the Line
Song: Gotta Tell You—Sung by Samantha Mumba
After having that dream once, Alex had the same dream every night for two weeks. Alex decided it was time to put her feelings out there to one person who could be the only one who she had dreamt of saying repeatedly 'I love you' to in a short letter.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Your love for me came as a waterfall
Flowin' inside me like never before
Your love for me, somethin' I didn't see
But baby, I know better now
When you walk in the room that very night
A special feelin' just burst inside
It was only you, nobody else
But baby, I know better now
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now, but it wouldn't be
right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And now you're back inside my house again
I'm tryin' deeper to explain
'Cause baby, I wanna get it on
And baby, you're the one for me
But now that I have got you all alone
After all this talkin' on the phone
I should be strong, there's nothing wrong
I'll tell you this is where you belong, where you
belong
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now, but it wouldn't be
right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now, but it wouldn't be
right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
It was just something in your eyes
That made me realize
But now I hear voices deep inside
Tellin' me, tellin' me
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now, but it wouldn't be
right
If I didn't tell you this tonight
Don't wanna love you if you don't love me
Don't wanna need you when you won't need me too
Don't wanna tell you this now, but it wouldn't be
right
If I didn't tell you this tonight

Dear Bobby,
There is something that I have to tell you. I know that I should you this in person but I don't think the words would have come out right.
Robert Othello Goren, I, Alexandra Ryleigh Eames, your senior partner am in love with you and have been in love with you for awhile now. I never said anything because I was not sure if you felt the same way and because of our job. I hope you understand where I am coming from.
Sincerely,
Alex
The next day as they were finishing the last of the paperwork Alex took out the envelope that held the note walked over to Bobby's side of their desks put it in front of him and whispered to him, "Please don't read it here but after you get home."
