Chapter 4

"Yes, I want to hear it." She turned towards him like she was bracing herself for a storm.

"Ok." He took a deep breath. "I like you." He smiled at her with a very satisfied grin as her mouth gaped open.

"I like you?" she repeated. "You get me thinking you have this big speech laid out and all you say is 'I like you?' 760 verbal my ass…"

"I like you…a lot?"

"Pssh."

"Wait; hold on, you're seriously getting angry at me for this? I just told you I liked you. I told you I liked you a lot. What's wrong with you?" his voice was rising as his body did too and he was making motions with his hands. "I always thought when I told the woman I loved that I liked her she would at least hug me and at best kiss…"

Before Josh could finish his sentence Donna had launched herself at him and captured his lips with her own. When she pulled away she smiled at his stunned reaction.

"Did you see what I did there?" she murmured. "I got you to admit that you loved me first." She leaned in for another kiss after he didn't react to her words. Then when his brain began functioning again he extracted himself from her lips and spoke.

"Hey! You love me!" He smirked. "You love the man with the cutest butt in politics, you've got good taste."

"Uggh, Joshua you're head is taking up all the space in my apartment. You also have to remember that you're the same man who almost burnt down the White House." His face turned serious for a moment.

"But honestly, you really love me?"

"Yes, Josh." She saw his eyes fill with an unspoken question, one she couldn't decipher. "What?"

"I know this is going to sound silly but could you…" he paused. "Could you say it?" She smiled at his shyness as he averted his eyes for a second before they flicked back to hers. She touched his cheek.

"I love you, Josh."

He leaned in to kiss her, and this time he left his eyes open.

The End

Author's Note: I'm not sure how much I like this ending; I had another in mind but did not write it. Tell me if you think I should change it or not or how much you enjoyed it. I have another story in the works that I should post soon. Thanks for reading!
