As soon as the interview was over, Lori headed to the small kitchen to brew herself some coffee. She walked in and went straight to the coffee maker. A few minutes later, as she was stirring cream into her cup, she heard footsteps make their way into the room. She looked up to see Bob and Dave.

"Hey guys," Lori greeted casually as she double tapped the stirrer on the edge of her cup and threw it into the trash can.

"Lori," they chorused as they went to the vending machine.

Lori could sense an awkward vibe in the room as she leaned against the counter and watched as the men quietly pressed buttons on the machine. The silence surprised her; they were usually very talkative or laughing about some crazy thing that happened that day. Instead of asking, however, Lori simply sipped her coffee and watched them leave minutes later.

A few more minutes passed until her manager peeked his head into the kitchen. "Lori, your break is up, it's time for the next interview."

Lori thanked him and finished her coffee before throwing the styrofoam cup into the recycling bin and walking back out to the main area where her second interview of the day would be conducted.

Her manager leading the way, she found Bob and Dave again, sitting next to John, and she quickly realized it was a whole-cast interview, exciting her. She loved interviewing with the whole cast; instead of feeling like work, it felt like another hangout time with the family.

The moment Lori caught eyes with John, John shot her a grin and wink, waving her over to him. She immediately made her way over to his right and he took her hand and kissed it, causing her to smile.

At first, as usual, the interviewer asked questions like, "How does it feel to be back with everyone again?" "What are some of the main differences doing Fuller House now in comparison to Full House years ago?" "How have the new kids adapted to being on the set with you?"

The cast answered the questions without hesitation, each of them speaking up and saying something about what it was like to be on set again.

"Okay, now I want to play a little game with you guys… Have you all played the game 'Never Have I Ever'?" the reporter asked the cast.

They all nodded.

"Well, traditionally it's a drinking game, but for the sake of this interview, we're going to add a little mystery and make it completely anonymous. We have these clickers for you," the reporter explained as her assistant passed them all a clicker.

"I will say a statement such as 'Never have I ever interviewed the cast of Full House' and whoever has carried out the action will respond 'yes' on the clicker. Names will not be recorded and will remain anonymous. The number of people who answer yes will pop up on the screen beside me. Any questions?" the reporter asked, taking a momentary pause before continuing.

"Okay, let's get the ball rolling," the interviewer began. "The following are questions people on Twitter submitted and are dying to know!"

"Round one: never have I ever forgotten a line while filming."

All seven of them pressed yes.

The interviewer looked at the screen to see how many responses had been recorded and laughed. "All seven of you have forgotten a line!" she announced.

"It happens to the best of us," John commented, running a hand through his hair and flashing that infamous smile of his. Lori laughed.

"Round two: Never have I ever skipped a day of work."

"Five!" the interviewer exclaimed.

"Hey, we filmed Full House for a lot of years!" Dave defended.

"Round three: Never have I ever dated a Full House costar."

"Zero! Wow, I'm actually surprised the two of you never dated." The interviewer motioned toward Lori and John. They looked at each other.

"Well, we did go on a date once before Full House—" John started.

"Shut up, no we didn't!" Lori chuckled, slapping her hand gently against his arm. "The timing was just never right," she continued, feigning a smile as the two of them could feel the rest of the cast members watching them.

"Round four: Never have I ever hooked up with a fan."

"Damn, shit just got real!" Jodie exclaimed, smirking and logging in her answer.

"You start out with all the innocent questions first I see," Candace commented.

"One! Now I wish we knew who it was."

"Oh, I think we all know," Dave laughed as they all looked at John.

"Hey now, this is an anonymous game and I don't see how you guys can just assume it was me," John defended.

"Was it?" Jodie asked knowingly, leaning over and looking at him.

"That's against the rules! Miss, she's cheating!" John teased, pointing out Jodie to the interviewer.

Lori bit her lip to stop herself from reacting. She never liked thinking of John's past.

"Round five: Never have I ever hated someone on set."

They all quickly logged their answers.

"Zero! No secret rivalries I see."

"No hate here, we're all like a family," Bob said with a smile. The rest of the cast beamed as well.

"We truly are," Andrea chimed in, exchanging smiles with Candace. She patted her best friend's hand.

"Round six: Never have I ever fallen in love with someone on set."

Lori bit her lip again as she logged her answer and then looked at John who was still logging in his.

"Two! Wow, no one has ever dated but it seems we have some love birds," the interviewer said excitedly.

The rest of the cast had a strong feeling who the two individuals were, but acted natural and kept straight faces.

Lori avoided John's gaze as they moved onto the next round.

"Round seven: Never have I ever hooked up on set in one of the trailers while filming Full House or Fuller House."

Lori could feel the heat rising to her face as she answered 'yes.'

"Three! Wow, is that allowed?" the interviewer asked in shock.

"It's frowned upon, but it happens," Jodie admitted, knowing she had been guilty herself.

"Okay, last but not least, round eight: never have I ever played a prank on set."

All seven burst out laughing as they quickly logged their responses.

"All of you!" the reporter laughed. "Now we know what you guys do behind the scenes."

The girls giggled. "The guys are always pranking us," Andrea reported.

"Yeah, but we get them back real good," Candace assured.

The reporter laughed. "Well, that's all I have for today. Thank you all so much for your time," she told them, shaking each of their hands before she left.

As they all departed, John looked at Lori and smirked.

"What?" Lori questioned, smiling at him.

"Nothing," he responded as he continued to walk away with a smile on his face. They managed to diverge from the rest of the cast.

Lori laughed and walked over to him. "What?" she insisted, grabbing a hold of his arm and stopping him.

"Nothing," he answered, looking back at her. "I just never knew you had fallen in love with me."

John's words caused Lori's heart to race. "I never said that," she argued, red hitting her cheeks.

"Oh c'mon. There were two people who answered yes to that question."

Lori stuck to her act of denial. "You can't possibly just assume that was me," she scoffed. "And even if it was, who said it was you who I fell in love with? Are you really that vain?"

John analyzed her expression in a search for stared at her for a moment before getting an idea.

"I call a redo," he ordered.

"What?" Lori asked, confused.

"A redo. Just you and me."

Lori laughed and looked at him like he was crazy. She assumed he must have been kidding, but when she did a doubletake, her eyes widened. His face was serious.

"Oh, you're serious?" Her smile faded as it was replaced by shock.

John nodded. "Why not? I have nothing to hide and you shouldn't either."

Lori's pulse quickened. It was one thing to play anonymously, but did she really want to put herself in this position with John? Then again, what was she hiding? Wasn't she brave enough just an hour ago to tell John she loved him?

"You're on," she agreed, knowing it was probably against her better judgment.

John smirked. "You do realize this is usually a drinking game, right?"

Oh gosh, I'm going to regret this, Lori thought to herself as she nodded.

"My trailer?" Lori asked.

John shook his head, "Mine."

John reached for her hand as they headed toward his trailer, but Lori slowly pulled her hand away from his as she followed him.

What am I doing? she questioned herself as they were walking.


When they got to John's trailer, Lori naturally sat down on the couch as John went over to the cupboard and pulled out two shot glasses.

"Make yourself at home," John paused and looked back at her, "you've been here before anyway," he teased with a wink, causing Lori to blush.

He then went over to a cabinet underneath the hanging flat-screen TV and opened it, revealing his collection of drinks.

Lori turned to look over to John. Her eyes widened. "Wow," she breathed subconsciously.

John chuckled. "What?" he asked as he pulled out a bottle of tequila for Lori and vodka for himself, and shut the cabinet door.

"Nothing," Lori responded as she clasped her hands together in her lap, "it's just completely expected that America's Sexiest Bachelor has such a large amount of alcohol stocked in his trailer."

"Oh, I see," John went and sat beside Lori. "You think I'm sexy?" he asked, a huge cheesy grin on his face.

Lori pushed him playfully. "Just fill the glasses, Stamos," she demanded.

John abided, sitting back up and opening the bottles, pouring adequate amounts in each glass.

"By the way," Lori began, watching as John filled her drink, "how did you know tequila is one of my go-to drinks?"

"You're hard to forget," John replied charmingly, causing Lori to smile.

"Okay," John declared as he set the second bottle down, "let's start easy."

The two of them lifted their respective shot glasses into their hands.

"Never have I ever…" John started, "had a dream about the other person?"

John looked into Lori's eyes and wiggled his eyebrows.

They gave each other a teasing smile before both downing the shot.

"You had a dream about me?" John gasped. "What was it about?"

"This isn't '20 Truths,' John," Lori teased.

There was a silence before John asked, "Aren't you going to ask me what my dream was about?"

Lori narrowed her eyes at him.

"Okay, maybe it was obvious," John finished before refilling their shot glasses.

"Your move, Loughlin," John motioned for her to continue the game.

"Okay…" Lori opened her mouth to ask something, but hesitated.

"Anything's on the table," John reminded her, placing his hand on her leg.

Lori looked down at his resting hand. She didn't know if it was the alcohol, but his hand on her felt really nice.

"Never have I ever said the other person's name in bed," Lori remarked. Throughout the years, this question had always been creeping through her mind.

"Damn," John breathed, "you're really going full force, babe."

Lori tilted her head cutely at him. She looked from his eyes to his glass and back into his eyes, questioning in a gesture whether or not he would drink.

John narrowed his eyes at Lori, keeping his eyes locked onto hers as he lifted the shot glass onto his lips and took a drink.

It was Lori's turn to gasp. "Shut up!" she screamed. "You did not!"

John shrugged nonchalantly.

"Now you have to explain!" Lori insisted since he was the only one who had been guilty and that's how the game worked.

"What? Of all the risqué things an innocent person refuses to understand, you know the proper rules to 'Never Have I Ever'?"

Lori smiled innocently. "Hey, I too have a dark side," she pointed out.

A playful grin arose on John's face. "Yeaaah you do," he said sexily, causing Lori to slap his hand. When their hands touched, Lori could feel herself blush. She decided to keep her hand resting on his.

"Okay, well…" John tried to recall the moment. He tapped his fingers on the side of his drink. "It was a few weeks after you first appeared on Full House. I don't know… I guess when I saw you arrive on set that very first day, all my feelings for you came rushing back. And you being my love interest on the show just made things feel even more real." He paused. "Expressing Jesse's feelings for Becky was merely a reflection of my own feelings. For you."

Hearing John's words brought a soft smile to Lori's face. Without thinking, her thumb had begun caressing John's.

John could feel his heart beating faster as he kept his eyes locked onto Lori's.

"Since you were with Michael, I decided to take the woman out to dinner. She seemed to enjoy herself, I needed to find a way to get over you. I took her back to my apartment, and things evidently took a turn for the worst."

Lori let out a small chuckle, looking from the ground shyly and then back into his eyes.

"I just couldn't get my mind off of you," John added softly, looking deeper into her eyes.

They stared into each other's eyes for a moment before Lori finally snapped them both back into reality.

"Okay, moving on," she continued, taking the liberty to pour their drinks this time.

They both brought the shot glasses back in front of them.

"Bad choice," John joked. Lori looked at him, confused. "I have an interesting question that you will most definitely have to drink to."

Lori raised her eyebrows. "Bring it," she retorted.

John smirked. "Never have I ever…" he paused. "And this sort of question is a two-way street, so I actually know the answer to it and can catch your bluff."

"Just ask me, John!" Lori chuckled impatiently.

"Never have I ever wanted to kiss on Full or Fuller House longer than directed to," John finally declared, sticking his nose up confidently.

Lori's teasing smile faded. "Hey, unfair!" she called out. "You just think that because of the 'War of the Roses' epis—"

"And many, many Full House episodes," John corrected, sticking his finger in the air matter-of-factly.

Lori shook her head and drank. John laughed before following shortly after.

"Never have I ever..." Lori began, turning back to face John. She paused, bit her lip, and continued, "Regretted the choices I made."

They caught each other's eyes again. Without realizing it, they were sitting much closer to each other than they had when they had started.

"This one's easy," John murmured as he downed his drink. He was surprised, however, when Lori downed hers seconds later.

"Really?" John asked softly to her.

Lori nodded slowly, biting her lip. She continued caressing her thumb against his.

John could feel chills rise up his spine and smiled helplessly at the woman he had always been in love with.

"Never have I ever," John resumed after pouring more tequila and vodka into their glasses, "fallen in love with the other person."

John felt his fingers instinctively grip his shot glass in anticipation. He knew his answer. He just needed to wait for Lori's.

Lori's eyes fell to her glass. She didn't know how to respond. I'm married. I have kids. I need to stop this. The only way to truly make my family happy is by being honest with myself and not keeping my emotions bottled inside. For a second, she had considered lying - after all, it was just a game - but she knew John didn't deserve that.

Another moment passed as John waited anxiously for Lori's answer. He watched as Lori's teeth bit her bottom lip again. Damn, she's perfect, he thought to himself as, finally, his eyes met hers.

When Lori looked back into John's eyes, she knew.

Lori lifted her glass up to her lips. She tilted the glass and gulped down her drink.

"Lori…" John murmured subconsciously.

Lori's lips curved into a soft smile just as John downed his drink.

"Never have I ever," Lori spoke under her breath, ignoring the fact that they hadn't refilled their glasses. John looked from Lori's eyes down to her lips. Lori gulped nervously. She could feel her heart beat faster, clear desire in her eyes. "Wanted to kiss—"

However, Lori's words were interrupted as John placed a finger on her chin and pulled himself in toward her. He brushed his lips against hers, causing Lori to shiver in desire. She wrapped her arms around John's neck and went in for the kiss. Within seconds, their tongues swirled together and Lori had to bite back a moan as she forced herself to pull back.

"Can I just say," Lori purred as she opened her eyes slowly, meeting John's. "Haveee mercy."

A seductive smile arose on John as he leaned in toward Lori again. He bit her bottom lip, causing her breath to hitch. Soon, Lori found her back lying against the couch, John above her. Caught up in the moment, Lori and John simultaneously crashed their shot glasses onto the floor.

Lori raked her nails up John's back as he sucked on Lori's tongue. Lori could feel herself quiver. He is so damn good at this, she thought to herself as she shut her eyes in ecstasy.

John moved his fingers toward the bottom edge of her shirt before stopping himself.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" John asked, letting his hot breath tickle her ear.

"Yesss…" Lori responded huskily as she ran her fingers through his hair.

John began kissing her neck as he gripped the edge of Lori's shirt and pulled it over her head. Lori then took initiative and hurriedly ripped off John's shirt.

John pressed his body against Lori's, continuing to kiss her neck. A moment later, he moved his lips back beside her ear and breathily murmured, "I love you…"

As Lori heard these words from John, she could feel her heartbeat quicken again. She opened her eyes and moved so their foreheads were pressed together. "I love you too," she cooed, "now… please just kiss me."

Impatiently, Lori hungrily moved her lips back onto John's, this time taking control. She dug her fingers into his back as she arched her back up, pressing her body further against his.

John could feel his knees buckle in anticipation and he shifted and used his hands to help shimmy Lori's jeans down. Lori took the opportunity to work on undoing his belt. She could already feel him more than ready and she wanted to release him from the confines of the fabric.

Needily, the two of them stripped the last pieces of their clothing.

"You're so beautiful," John complimented, taking in the sight of her before kissing her again. She gripped his biceps as he hovered over her.

Her body hummed with anticipation as she urged him closer and could feel their bodies pressed together so close but yet not close enough.

His mouth moved back to her neck and then down to her collarbone, sucking and paying just enough attention to each spot to cause Lori to whimper but not enough to leave a mark.

"I've ...dreamed about this... for so long," John murmured in between kisses.

"Shhh…" Lori hushed him. John stopped and looked back at her. She pressed her finger against his lips. "I know," she whispered to him softly, a twinkle in her eye.

John suddenly acknowledged how much this moment meant to him. Lori was special to him and he wanted to treat her well. He loved her. He'd always loved her, and now he was finally being given a chance to prove how much he truly cared about her— a chance to take care of her. When he looked back into her eyes, her smile reassured him and he was brought back to reality.

Lori moved her hand back to John's hair and tugged at it just as John moved down to her chest.

He slowly kissed down her body until he was inches away from where she needed him. He looked up at her for reassurance that this is really what she wanted. In response, she spread her legs eagerly and he took initiative, delving his tongue in. As he flicked his tongue, he could hear Lori moan as he expertly pleased her. He smirked sexily by how turned on she was.

"John…" she whimpered heatedly.

Thirty-three years. Thirty-three years she'd waited for this and it was so worth it.

When she was right on the edge, he stopped, coming back up to kiss her neck as she pulled his face back to her so she could look into his eyes. He straddled and slowly sank down into her as she hooked her legs behind him, urging him deeper. Her breath hitched as her body stretched to accommodate him. He was a lot bigger than she was used to, but he felt so good.

"Mhmm," she murmured as he set the pace.

As soon as she got close, he slowed, leaving her panting. "Fuuuck," Lori moaned helplessly. The rhythm was perfect, almost as if it was full of crescendo and decrescendos. He always did say he had a musical approach to lovemaking.

She sucked his neck as he sped up, wanting to leave a mark he'd have to explain at work the next day.

John worked his thigh muscles as he pulled his hips down harder. Lori's nails dug deeper into his back more than ever before, causing him to grunt.

"Fuck, fuck fuck..." he moaned. "Lori…"

Lori then raked her fingers through his hair as he continued to slam into her. As the electricity built, they gradually lost rhythm and dissolved into pleasure.

Lori and John could see stars as their vision faded to black.

A moment later, as they attempted to catch their breath, Lori could feel John reach for her hand and she instinctively intertwined her fingers with his. He looked down at the love of his life and kissed her forehead. He then pushed a strand of her hair behind her ear.

"Was that how you pictured it in your dream?" Lori asked warmly, looking into John's eyes.

"Even better," John replied without hesitation.
