A/N Happy Holidays everybody. This is my last week of school and this is
the last chapter of 'Tomorrow's Crossroads Today.' I am going to start
their European Vacation around January 12 or 13. I am taking a month off
from everything and just relaxing. Shadowfax agreed and 'The Never-ending
Story of the Joss Whedon Fan Club' is going to be on hold too. So, enjoy
your holidays and I will see you in the New Year.

When Tom realized she was in her room, and she was cursed, she noticed Connor's arms around her.
"Sorry, but I had to stop you from leaving," he explained.
"Not really complaining," she smiled.
"How are you feeling? Are you okay?"
"Connor, I'm fine. I actually feel better than I have for a long time. How about you? I know it must have been rough."
"I was worried until you started moving."
"But my evil self, I can't even begin to think what I might have done, what I might have done to you."
"Tomorrow, it was okay really." Tom gasped at his words. "What are you hurt?" Connor asked. "Are you sure you're okay?"
"You never used my full name before." Before he could apologize, she put her fingers to his lips. "I liked it," Suddenly her fingers moved to the back of his neck and her lips met his with intensity.
Connor pulled back, "but what about the curse. We both have it now?"
Tomorrow wickedly grinned, "That's why I asked you to make sure I was cursed. Two moments of perfect happiness cannot break two curses. We counteract each other's curses. I looked it up."
As the kiss deepened and they fell onto her bed, all thoughts but the two of them, drifted from both of their minds. They knew it was right, they were such a part of each other, it was perfect. Some time tomorrow they would have to separate their bodies and pack for Europe, but tonight was all about them. And as they started to rip clothes, Connor swore he could hear one of those really old songs.
'Tonight you're mine completely, You give your love so sweetly. Tonight the light of love is in your eyes, But will you still love me Tomorrow? Is this a lasting treasure? Or just a moment of pleasure? Can I believe the magic of your sight? Will you still love me Tomorrow? Tonight with words unspoken You say that I'm the only one But will my heart be broken When the night meets the morning sun? I'd like to know that your love Is love I can be sure of. So tell me now and I won't ask again Will you still love me Tomorrow?'
As they drifted off, Connor knew the answer was yes.
