AMY and David Reunite


Sunday evening 6:30 pm:

Amy comes down the staircase into the kitchen. She's wearing the sexy red dress she bought months ago, for the date that David had cancelled out on (His come here go away thing) Her hair is down with soft curls that fall into her face. Maxine looks up at her, "Wow, Amy, I thought you said that this was a business dinner?" (Amy didn't tell Maxine that she was planning on seeing David, in case he didn't show) "It is mom...kind of a let your hair down... business dinner." "Really Amy... I didn't know that Judges were aloud to have fun!" "Ha-ha funny ma. I may be late please tell Lauren I'll see her in the morning... when she gets home from Michaels tonight." "I will dear... have a nice time!" "Goodnight" Amy kisses her mom and leaves.

The Restaurant:

Amy is escorted by the Madre D to a secluded table near a window. She explains that a Mr.McClaren will be joining her shortly. He tells her that he'll bring him when he arrives. Amy orders wine and waits nervously. She looks out the window at a beautiful view of Hartford, and then her eyes wander around the room. The restaurant is intimate and dark, a band is playing romantic music near a small dance floor in one corner. Couples are cozying up together in their own intimate settings. She now understands why Donna said it was famous for affairs. Amy glances at her watch 7:00 sharp, then looks towards the entrance. She realizes how nervous she is, so she decides to get up and go into the ladies room to try and calm down. She lets out a deep breath, and then puts on some red lip-gloss. Amy points at herself in the mirror and says, "if he doesn't come... its all your fault."

Amy walks slowly back, and David is already seated at the table. She can feel her heart pounding and her knees feel week below her and their eyes meet, and they both smile. "Hi" Amy says shyly to him. "Hi" he says still smiling at seeing her again..."You look... beautiful...Amy." David stands up and pulls out her chair, "and that dress is... something else!" Amy sits down and places her napkin onto her lap, she notices her hands shaking. David sits across from her while still staring intensely at her. "How have you been..Amy?" he asks in a concerned tone? "I'm well David... I had a hard few weeks since...she pauses, since...everything" (she knew David would know what she was talking about). "I'm finally starting to feel like my old self again." David smiles. The waiter intrudes to take their order, and then pours them both a glass of wine before leaving. Amy sips her wine then says "David, I'm so glad you came... I was thinking that you may not.. show up." You called, I told you I'd be around whenever you were ready to see me again." "Thank you for giving me the space to deal with everything, after the… " she looks down. "Hey" David touches her hand, "I hope you know that you were never alone... I was dealing with my own emotions with all that as well... I didn't know when or if you'd call...the only thing I could do was work and wait. I'm glad the waiting part is over Amy... and that you're ok." He nods his head to reassure her that he's not upset.Their dinner arrives and they talk about Amy's trip to D.C. They're both so happy to see each other again, and are still somewhat nervous and shy with each other.Soft music is playing and David stands up, he holds out his hand, and says "Dance with me.. Amy." "David… you hate the way I dance." "They play all slow songs here… so it I should be safe" they both laugh. Amy takes his hand and stands up. As they walk to the dance floor, David watches Amy in front of him, his eyes move slowly up and then down her sexy dress and body, and he takes a deep breath. Wow, he thinks to himself, she's such a beautiful woman!

They reach the dance floor. Amy turns around and stands frozen with nervousness. David places his hands on her waist and pulls her close. Amy embraces him, and then rests her head on his shoulder. David holds her gently in his arms. They both close their eyes, and begin to dance slowly together. They hold each other tighter, and their breathing becomes labored. They both feel the electricity that is now generating between them. David whispers in her ear, "Do you want to get out of here?" Amy looks at him and nods her head, yes.
David pays the check then helps Amy with her coat and they go outside. Amy says to David "Let's go for a walk along the pier." "Really, you want to go to the pier?" David looks puzzled. "Yes. I do David, really." "O.k... I won't argue...I love being out on the pier." Valet brings their cars.

The Pier:

They arrive and park near the pier and begin to slowly walk along it. Amy stops and looks out onto the water. The moon glistens across the water, and a slight breeze is blowing onto her face and thru her hair. "David" she says, still looking out onto the water, "I can see why you love to sail... there's something magic about the ocean." "Ya.. it really is magic" he says staring at her "especially right now... I think you just made it blush Amy... it's never had such a pretty lady tell it that before." She looks at him smiles. Then Amy says to him "Stand here" and she takes a few steps ahead, with her back towards him she says "catch me David." "Oh.. Amy.. you don't have to do this" he tells her, shaking his head "It's ok... I really want to.. please.. catch me." She closes her eyes and falls freely into David's arms. "I've got you Amy" she looks up into his face and says to him, "You sure do... Mr. McClaren..you sure do!" He pulls her to her feet, and Amy leans against the pier rail. David moves closer to her while staring intensely into her eyes. Her hair is gently blowing across her face, and he places it behind her ear. Amy closes her eyes, and shudders at his touch. He presses against her body, and closes his eyes, and then kisses her gently. They embrace each other tightly and begin to kiss with intense passion. Their breathing becomes heavy as the electricity between them intensifies. David pulls away, and Amy leans in for more, then he whispers in her ear, "Victor's away for three nights... come back to my place with me Amy." She nods her head, yes. David takes her hand, and she looks at him and smiles. David smiles back, and he places his arm around her waist, she leans her head against his shoulder. The moonlight follows them, as they walk back up the pier together.
