"Babe, don't do this to me!" Tommy pleaded to Tina in the flat. "We're such a great team, don't spoil things now. This doesn't change anything, we can get past this."
"Why don't you understand? This changes everything! You kissed another girl!"
"No I didn't, another girl kissed me!"
"Same difference! You should of read the signals. You could of walked away!"
"Can't we just put the whole day behind us? We've been getting along really well lately and..."
"And what? You expect me to just forget anything ever happened? I just can't do that!" Tina was stern, but not shouting. She had an upset element to her voice. "Maybe it's best you sleep on the couch tonight... I need to think."
That night, Tina lay in bed on her own, and without thinking, she turned around to cuddle Tommy. Then she realised he wasn't there. She thought about ending things with Tommy, and she was pretty sure she'd have to tomorrow. But not having Tommy next to her in bed made her think - she's in love with him. They're engaged - she's pregnant with he's baby. Tina had a hard decision to make, so she welled up, thinking about him.
On the couch, Tommy hadn't slept all night. He read the alarm clock - 01:30. He thought about switching the TV on, but then remembered they still hadn't got round to fixing it from that night. The night they discovered Tina was pregnant. He wondered if Tina was awake right now, and if she still loved him. Then the bedroom door opened. Tina emerged, dressing gown on. Tommy sat up.
"You okay?"
"Can't sleep. Getting some water."
"Yeah I'll get some too." He got up off the couch and stood next to Tina, at the tap. "I haven't slept all night either. I've been thinking about you."
"Yeah, me too..." Tina started sniffling. Then she swallowed. "I've decided that I love you, and my life wouldn't be the same without you... but I can never forgive you for this..." She turned round and put a hand on Tommy's bare chest. She saw that he was crying, and she started bawling. Tommy pulled her into a hug. "I love you Tommy, I love you!" She managed to blurt out through her tears.
"I love you too. I'm so sorry. It will never happen again, now I know what will happen." He kissed her head. He loved the feeling they had right now, Tina's long, dark hair falling down his chest, and their arms tightly wrapped round each other.
"Come to bed with me... I can't sleep without you. I need you." Tina found Tommy's hands and interlocked fingers. She gave him a long kiss and lead him into the bedroom. Tina threw off her dressing gown and they clambered into bed. They came as close up as possible, Tommy soothing Tina's side and back with his hand. Tina put one arm under Tommy's, and the other round his neck, so they were now in their favourite position. Tommy kissed Tina's nose and they were both in heaven.
