After the encounter at the mall Kirsten insisted that Carter drop her off at the office. Carter asked her for dinner but she just want to be alone right now and she still has a lot of work to finish. So now here she was in her office sitting on her couch and doing nothing, it's 8:00 in a Saturday night and everyone has already went home.
She was toying with the idea of just sleeping here in her office since there won't be anyone at home anyway, Ryan at Berkley and her dad in…somewhere. Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door. Thinking that it was just the security guard checking up on her again, "come in"
"hey" he smiled
standing off the couch she saw it was Sandy and he was carrying two paper bags.
"Sandy what are you doing here?"
"I was on my way to the hotel and passed by here and I saw your car." He explained while taking food out of the paper bag and putting them on the coffee table "I figured you haven't had dinner yet, you haven't right?"
"um…no…thanks, I am kind of starving already"
Kirsten and Sandy were both sitting on the floor eating and having a good time, talking and laughing, just like before. Until Sandy asked what happened to her and Jimmy.
"well…I caught him with somebody else" she explained but didn't want to look him in the eye
"oh, well it's his lost" he said trying to lighten the mood and scolding himself for asking it in the first place.
"how about you? Getting married next month huh? Congratulations!" she asked but still refusing to look at him
"yeah…thanks" he said quietly, "so you and that Carter guy? You a couple?"
"no…yes…god I don't know"
"you don't know if someone is your boyfriend?" now Sandy was laughing at her
"don't laugh, it's not funny" elbowing him on the stomach, but can't help laughing herself "we have a good time when were together, but I can't tell if it's him I'm falling for or…" she let her voice trail off and drop her head again
"or what?" he asked quietly while looking at her
"or you" she answered but continued to stare at her food and move it around her plate
"I have the same problem too"
"yeah right, your getting married to her next month. Thanks for trying to make me feel better though" she smiled
"anytime" he said quietly
after they've finished having dinner Sandy offered to take her home and just pick her up tomorrow for her car.
"It's okay I'll be fine. It's not that late anyways" then said her goodbye to Sandy and got in her car.
When Kirsten reached her driveway she saw Sandy standing there besides his car. She smiled to herself and wondered how Sandy got here first. Sandy waited for her to park her car and opened the door for her.
"how did you-? I left before you did?" she said while taking her bag and some folders and blueprints on the other side
"I know a few shortcuts" while taking the folders and blueprints from her
"you can just drop them on the couch" said Kirsten while taking off her coat and putting her bag on the floor, "you want something to drink?"
"no thanks, I better get going anyway"
"oh…okay, thanks again for dinner" she said although she sounded a little disappointed and walked Sandy to the door.
"no problem, we should do it more often" he said turning towards her
They stared at each other for awhile both looking like they have something to say to each other. Kirsten was holding the doorknob with her left and Sandy just kept looking at her.
It was Sandy who spoke first, "I missed you"
"I missed you too" still looking at him, not wanting to be the one to break eye contact.
Sandy continued to stare at her for a moment before he leaned down and kissed her, all the memories of her that he tried to forget came rushing back to him. Kirsten was taken by surprised that she didn't respond at first but when she felt his tongue begging entrance, all coherent thoughts just flew out the window and once again nothing mattered to them.
