"Well, how did it go?" Patrick asked Baby as she stepped off the elevator.

"Oh, don't ask." She told him as she walked on to her desk.

"That bad huh?" He said as he followed her.

Baby plopped down in her chair and placed her head in her hands.

"Baby, what is going on?" Patrick asked Baby as he became concerned now.

"I didn't get the story." Baby looked up at him. "Patrick I am so sorry."

"Why couldn't you get it?" Patrick said leaning up against Baby's desk.

"My past."

"Your past? Baby I am a little confused." Patrick eyes Baby closer.

"You know Patrick sometimes your past just comes up and slaps you in the face?" Baby rose to her feet. "That is what mine did. It slapped the hell out of me."

Patrick gave Baby a weird look. "I'm so lost in this conversation."

"I am sure you are. I am lost in it too." Baby said glancing out the window.

"Look Baby, I don't know what is going on but, do I need to get someone else to head this story up?" Patrick asked Baby in a monotone voice.

Baby shook her head yes without even turning around to face him. She was embarrassed she didn't get the story but her feelings put up a barrier to it. She felt she couldn't go back in there to get the story and possibly see Johnny.

"Its four o'clock. Why don't you go ahead and cut out for the day. You seem like you might need some rest." Patrick said as he walked toward his office.

What a day! Never in a million years had she thought she would see Johnny again. Now here he was just pecking her thoughts again. Why were all those feeling flooding back again? Why couldn't she control them? Would she ever see him again?

"Baby, line three." The voice over the speakerphone interrupted her thoughts.

"Hello, this is Baby."

"Pumpkin." Baby recognized her father's voice coming clear.

"Hey Dad." Baby took a seat again.

"Your mother and I haven't talked to you in a while. We just wanted to check on you. How is everything?" Jake asked his daughter.

"I know. I have been really busy. I will do better next time." Baby said with a chuckle. Talking to her father she knew would make her feel 100 better. He always could take her worries away even if he didn't know she was troubled. "Everything ok with ya'll?"

"Yes, dear, we are fine. Your mother has been taking crocheting classes and you know work keeps me busy. Have you talked to Lisa lately?"

"No, I need to call her." Baby said knowing the phone worked both ways.

"Well, what I really called you for is to ask you about Kellerman's." Jake told her.

"Kellerman's?"

"Yes, you up for a week down there this year?" Jakes asked her with excitement in his voice.

Baby's parents still go to Kellerman's every year but Baby has never been back since she lost her heart there. "I don't know Dad. I will have to think about it."

"Well, you do that and just let us know. Well, I hate to cut you short but my appointment is here. Call us back and let us know now. Love you dear." Jakes said.

"Love you."

It's one thing after another. She knew deep down she really didn't want to go back to Kellerman's. She believed if it hadn't been for Johnny she wouldn't have had a good time that summer.

It had been a while since Baby had got off work before five in what seemed like years. She needed to go somewhere and clear her mind. She had to find some way to get Johnny out of her thoughts. He was floating through her head constantly now. Was Johnny thinking about her at this very moment? She would give anything to know that.

Where does he live? Where does he go to have fun? Is he seeing anyone? All of these questions kept popping back up in her mind. Why hasn't she been interested in anyone? Was it her feelings for Johnny holding her back?

Baby was alone in the elevator as she headed out for the day. The elevator ride seemed like it could go on forever. She felt herself zone out....

"I'm gonna do my kind of dancin' with a great partner, who's not only a terrific dancer -- somebody who's taught me that there are people willing to stand up for other people no matter what it costs them -- somebody who's taught me about the kind of person I wanna be. Miss Frances Houseman."

Johnny pulled her softly to him and with a quick kiss on the nose he was twirling her around the stage. Johnny kept his eyes glued on Baby's. You could feel the magic in the room as each grinned with each movement they took. They never missed a beat.

Johnny pulled away from Baby followed by a sweet kiss on her hand. He jumped in the air and landed on the floor beneath the stage. He turned to glare back at the breathtaking sight on the stage. Other staff workers quickly joined Johnny as he begun a Cuban dance rhythm. He stopped in his tracks and with a nod to Baby she was helped down from the stage. She knew it was time to do the lift

Baby was shocked back to reality with the elevator doors opening before her. She took a deep breath to calm her nerves and headed out into the cool afternoon air.
