Charlotte closed the door and both Joseph and Clarisse burst out laughing. He heard her and was compelled to find her. She
was hiding where of all places underneath the bed. "Are You comfortable down there"? "It isn't uncomfortable but I could
think of a much more comfortable place". They both smiled wickedly and he helped her from under the bed. She smiled and
she pushed him on the bed and they got under the covers. She smiled at herself as she thought of how much she loved this
man.

When they laid in his bed with the fan going AND the a.c. on she snuggled closer to him as he held her to him tighter to him.
She couldn't figure out how to tell him even though she figured he already knew it. It was so funny cause she hadn't even
known herself until at the end of their last 'escapade'. She was still trying to figure out how to tell him when he took the words
right out of her mouth. "I Love You". She smiled like she'd never smiled before. "I Know". He looked at her and she turned
to meet his gaze. "You Know"? "Yes I Know". He stared at her with his mouth open. "Let me put it into my own words". He
looked at her and she became lost in his beautiful eyes. She looked at him and began to sing, " It's not the pale moon that excites me
that thrills and delights me, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
It isn't your sweet conversation
that brings this sensation, oh no
It's just the nearness of you
When you're in my arms and I feel you so close to me
All my wildest dreams come trueI need no soft lights to enchant me
If you'll only grant me the right
To hold you ever so tight
And to feel in the night the nearness of you".
He smiled from ear to ear and he kissed her on the lips. She smiled and hugged him to her that was how they fell asleepin each
others arms for ever and always .Or so they thought…
Uh oh whts gonna happen?
