Chapter Five

Janet,
I've snuck out while Jack's sleeping (in my bed! How weird is that?) to send you this. God, it's so wonderful not to have to pretend any more. We went to the movies (to make up for his turning me down the other day, he said) and we didn't touch for the first half hour, because neither of us could break the habit. Then, of course, we managed, and spent the rest of it making out... I guess I'll need to see that movie again if I want to know the plot.
I can hear him waking up, so I'll be brief. Will you be my maid/matron of honor? What is the correct term for a divorcee, anyway?

Sam,
ARE YOU SAYING...? Details, girl! I need details! And if you have to ask that, you don't know me very well.

Subject: Yes, I am
Janet,
Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. Janet, I'm really, really happy! Oh, it was perfect! ... Well, as perfect as it can be with Jack and I. I mean, if it were perfect, it would have happened about a week after we got back from Antarctica. But really. When I woke up Saturday, he was sitting on the end of the bed and staring at me. I asked why, and he said that this was the way he always wanted to wake up. I asked if he was proposing, and he said yes, he was, and tossed me a ring. Janet, he's had it for three years! He's just.. I love him so much, Janet.
Sam
PS Do you want to tell Daniel? Jack's going to ask him to be his best man, I think, and so he needs to know. Besides, he's the reason we're together.

Daniel,
Well, looks like Sam and Jack are happy. I'm going to be matron of honor at the wedding. And it's all because of you. Let me take you out to dinner to celebrate?

Janet,
Married? Really? So soon? Wow. That's wonderful. Dinner? Sure.

Jack,
Congratulations. I'm happy for you both. When are you planning on getting married?

Daniel -
We aren't sure yet. You ARE going to be my best man.

Janet! I'm sorry! I forgot to ask how your date with Daniel went! I'm such a bad friend.

Subject: It's fine
Sam,
That's fine, really. Your news is so much more important, really, it's not surprising that you didn't have time to think about me.
But since you asked... it was great. We had coffee, and then we talked, and then we went to a park and sat around and talked some more, and then we had dinner, and then he kissed me goodnight! It's like... four dates all rolled into one. I really think I'm going to fall for him, Sam. I hope he feels the same.

Subject: Quick note
Janet,
I have to go, because my fiancée is being… very demanding, but hey! I'm sure he does, really. He's been crazy about you for a long time, Janet. There's no problem with whether he's in love with you or not. Seriously, throw yourself at him. It'll work, trust me. But then again, that might be the love talking, huh?
Good luck,
Sam
A/N: Should I keep going with Dan and Jan? Let me know, ok?
