The angels watched as Alan got up and walked over to a young-looking pregnant woman. She had short black hair and brown eyes. He smiled, and then hugged her. He looked behind him. Noticing many people wandering around, he directed her into his dressing room. The angels kept watch, and reappeared in the dressing room, still unseen. Alan sat down in a chair across from the woman.
"I'm not upset with you...but people will get suspicious if they see you here," Alan said, taking the woman's hands in his own, "but Chloe, why are you here?" She smiled slightly, and then looked up.
"I'm here to tell you good-bye, Alan," Chloe explained.
"Good-bye...what do you mean?" he asked.
"Not permanently, don't get me wrong. I got a job offer in New York. Well, I'm just supposed to go there for the interview, and then come back. That's where the main building is," Chloe said.
"When do you leave?" Alan asked quietly.
"Tonight. I'm staying at a hotel tonight when I get there. I have an interview at 7:30 tomorrow morning somewhere in the north Trade Center building. My current boss will call me tomorrow morning with details."
"I'm going to miss you," Alan managed to say between his thoughts.
"I know. I'll miss you to. I only had enough time to say good-bye. I have to go home to pack," she said, regretfully. Alan stood up and helped Chloe to stand. He hugged her for a moment, and then pulled back and kissed her.
"I love you Chloe," he said.
"I love you too," Chloe replied. They both smiled. Alan watched sadly as Chloe walked away.
"Gloria, Andrew, and Monica smiled at the emotional scene they were watching.
"How sweet! They seem like such a loving couple," Monica exclaimed.
"Oh, just watch baby. It will get A LOT better," Tess said, upset. She knew what was coming, but wasn't ready to tell her former angel companions. They watched as one of the back-up singers knocked and came into the dressing room. Alan smiled at the woman.
"Hey Alan. Great job tonight," she said.
"You too, Anna," he responded.
"Thanks. Oh yeah, I almost forgot to tell you. Sean said we have the night off. He said we did such a good job, that we didn't need any practice."
"Ok, good," Alan said, smiling.
"What are you going to do tonight? I have a date with Dave," Anna said, making conversation.
"I'm going to dinner and a movie with my wife," Alan answered.
"Oh, how romantic! You're the old-fashioned type, huh?" she exclaimed. Alan nodded, then smiled.
"Yeah, Dawn will be so surprised," he explained.
"Cool! Listen, I gotta go get ready for my date," she said as she smiled and walked away.
"See ya later," he called after her.
Monica stared wide-eyed at the situation. She looked up at Tess with a questioning look.
"Tess, I thought Chloe was his wife," she paused for a moment and thought. Her jaw dropped as the realization hit her.
"Tess! He's..." Monica started.
"That's right, baby. Alan is cheating on Dawn with Chloe. And neither of the two woman know about each other," Tess interrupted.
"I'm not upset with you...but people will get suspicious if they see you here," Alan said, taking the woman's hands in his own, "but Chloe, why are you here?" She smiled slightly, and then looked up.
