After holding onto Hunter for ten minutes, Stephanie let go of him and looked at him strangely. He stared back at her the same way. It was silent for what seemed like eternity. After a couple minutes Stephanie ran to the elevator and stepped on to it. She pressed the number four and waited while the elevator took her up the floors.

She came to her floor and got off. She ran down to her room and opened the door. She ran into the room slamming the door behind her. She lunged at her bed and cried her eyes out more, holding the sheets to her chest.

~*~*~*~

Hunter, Kurt and Chris watched as Stephanie ran to the elevator. After she got on Hunter and Chris turned their attention to Kurt. Who looked scared at the moment.

"What did you do to her?" Hunter asked feeling defensive of Steph.

"What makes you think I did anything to her?" Kurt asked stepping back a little.

"I have a couple of reasons." Hunter started. "One, why weren't you the one holding her?"

"Umm." Kurt tried thinking of an answer but couldn't think when Hunter began talking again.

"That's what I thought. Second, how come she came running out of the café crying and running from you?" Hunter said with Chris just watching the whole thing.

"I didn't mean to make her cry." Kurt said frightened of Hunter.

"Well, listen here Mr. Angle." Hunter said pulling Kurt closer to him. "You make her cry again and your ass is mine."

"Please, let me go." Kurt said and Hunter let him go. "Well, Hunter if I do make her cry again, you aren't going to get anything in return from her because I know personally that she hates your guts."

After saying that Kurt ran from Hunter like a dog with its tail between its legs. Hunter looked over at Chris, who gave him the thumbs up. Chris smiled at Hunter and patted him on the back.

"Hey, maybe you can go up there and try talking to her?" Chris suggested.

"I don't know man." Hunter said looking a bit nervous.

"Come on, what's the least she could do?" Chris said. "She let you hold her, while she cried."

"I guess your right. I'll go talk to her." Hunter said walking over to the elevator.

~*~*~*~*~

Stephanie cried for about twenty minutes before she heard a knock on her door. She lied there quietly hoping, who ever it was would leave soon. A minute later there is another knock. She waited again. Obviously the person was going to keep knocking. So she sat up and dried her tears.

She stood up and walked over to the door. Steph wiped her eyes again, even though it still looked like she was crying. All she wanted was someone to love her right now. Stephanie opened the door to find the man she least expected to be there.

"Hunter." She faintly whispered.

"Can I come in for a minute?" He asked glad to see she was civil towards him, even though she was heart broken.

"Sure" Steph said quietly letting him on her room.

She let him in and went and sat on the bed, as Hunter pulled up a chair. They sat in silence for a while, until Steph spoke.

"What did you come here for?" Steph said so quietly to where you could barely hear her.

"I came to see if you were going to be ok." Hunter said honestly.

"Yeah, ok Hunter. That's a first." Steph said getting a bit angry.

"I'm serious Steph." Hunter said not wanting to start a fight. "I was curious to know why you let me hold you like that."

Stephanie looked up at Hunter. She looked him in his hazel eyes. She missed those loving eyes. She saw that same love she saw when they first got married. She could tell he was being honest with her. He didn't want to come up her and make fun of her.

"Hold me again please." Stephanie said missing those strong arms.

Hunter opened his arms as Steph came into them. He tightened his grip on her, to make her feel safe. He hated seeing her like this. Hunter wanted to kiss away all of her tears but he knew that was a long shot, so he thought. That was until Stephanie rose her head up from his shoulder and looked him deep in the eyes. With out hesitation she kisses him on the lips for the first time in three years.

Hunter a little shocked returns the kiss. Soon the small little kiss turns into kissing and roaming. Hunter pulls away for a minute and looks at Stephanie.

"Is this what you really want?" Hunter asked Stephanie who was sitting on his lap.

Stephanie leaned forward whispering in his ear.

"Hunter, make love to me." She said and pulled back looking into his eyes.

He stared into those blue eyes that were filled with sadness. Hunter wanted to do anything to cheer her up, and if it meant making love to her and it not mean anything to her then, that was what he was going to do.

Hunter picked her up off his lap and carried her to the bed. He gently laid her on the bed and slowly began undressing her. If this was his only chance to make love to Stephanie again he wanted it to be remunerable.

~*~*~*~*~*~

Kurt made it up to the 4th floor after about thirty minutes after Hunter had lectured him. He walked down to Stephanie's room to talk to her. Maybe he could talk some things into her. As he got closer to her room he heard the sounds of love making. Kurt walked up to Stephanie's room and put his ear to the door. He listened and he knew for a fact the woman in there was Steph, but who was the man. He really didn't want to listen, but he had to know who was putting their hands on Steph. He soon got his answer when he heard Steph softly yell out Hunter's name.

Kurt backed away from the door shocked. He couldn't believe Hunter was in there, after everything Steph told him about Hunter. Hunter is a jerk, Hunter is lazy, Hunter is a dumbass, Hunter is this, Hunter is that, yet she was in there letting him make love to her at this very moment.

He shook his head and walked down the hall to the elevator. This was just what he needed. Hunter back in the picture. Things were perfect with out Hunter in them. Why couldn't things stay like that?

Kurt got to the lobby and bumped into Chris walking onto the elevator. Chris saw the look on Kurt's face and smiled.

"What's wrong with you?" Chris asked sarcastically.

"Hunter is what's wrong." Kurt said stepping off the elevator.

"Why Hunter?" Chris smirked knowing Hunter was talking with Steph.

"He's gotten back into the picture." Kurt said angry about that.

"What do you mean?" Chris asked confused.

"They are up there having sex." Kurt said right as the doors shut.
