After 5 longs hours on the bus, all the busses stopped for a pit stop. TJ
ran off the bus and went to go look for a bathroom. "Hey TJ! Wait up!" She
heard someone call. She stopped and turned around to wait for Jeff. She
smiled up at him. "Hey Jeff." She said. "Um.I was wondering.when we finally
get to Chicago.did you um.want to go see a movie?" He asked. TJ heart raced
and she couldn't help but smile at him. She was about to say her answer,
Jeff's phone rang. "Hold on one second." He said. He turned and walked
away. "Hello?" He asked.
"Jeff, honey. I'm sorry for making you choose."
"Beth, you have always made excuses for us to break up.and you always come
back. I'm not going to be your fall back guy."
"But your not, Jeffy."
"Look Beth, I thought you were the one. But I've met someone else. I'm
sorry." Jeff said and hung up the phone. When he turned to walk back to TJ,
she was gone. "Damnit! Where did she go?" Jeff asked out loud. "Are you
looking for TJ?" Mark C asked. Jeff nodded. "Her and Amy went to the
bathroom." He said. "Alright. Thanks." Jeff said.

"So did you say yes?" Amy asked. "I was going to, but he got a phone call. I think it was Beth." TJ said. "TJ, I was talking to Jeff on the bus, he said he was over her. He told me he really likes you." Amy lied. He didn't say he really liked her. He said he liked her. "Well.I guess I can give it a try." TJ said. She and Amy walked out and Jeff was talking to Jean. TJ walked towards them. "It's time for me to tell him my feelings." TJ thought. "Hey Jean, do you mind if I talk to Jeff alone?" TJ asked. "I was never even here." Jean said and left. "What's up?" Jeff asked. "Jeff, about your offer earlier, I would like to. But I have to ask you something, are you completely over Beth?" TJ asked. "Trish, she was the one who called me and." Jeff started. "Oh, so you guys are back together." TJ said. "No.you never let me finish. I turned her down. Told her I found somebody else." Jeff said. "Oh. If you like me, then, how come you wouldn't admit it?" TJ asked. "Who told you that?" Jeff asked. "Jean told me Matt told him. Matt also told everyone on the bus what you did for me." TJ said. "He did what? I could kill him!" Jeff said. "No, Jeff. Don't be mad at him." TJ said. Jeff sighed. "Ever since Amy told me what you told her that one day." Jeff started. "WHAT?! SHE TOLD YOU?!" TJ asked, yelling. "TJ, calm down.it's ok." Jeff said. "No. No it's not. I trusted Amy not to tell anyone. I wanted to tell you myself when the time was right." TJ said. "TJ, listen. It was a good thing Amy told me because I feel the same way." Jeff said. "You do?" TJ asked. Jeff nodded and leaned in to kiss TJ. When their lips met, it felt like magic between the two of them.
