As soon as she shut the bathroom door, Donna leaned back against it contemplating what had just happened. She rubbed her hand over her face before smacking her palm to her forehead. 'You're an idiot' she said, out loud to no one but herself. Then she thought about Josh and the way he had been looking at her all night. Why he chose tonight to kiss she didn't know, but she knew she had wanted him to. Turning on the shower she then wondered, what would happen next. Something she knew for certain though was that they definitely needed to talk about it.
As Donna got out of the shower she noticed how quiet it was. She put her ear up to the bathroom door but couldn't hear the guys. Quickly getting dressed, she made her way out of the bathroom and back into the room. No sigh of Toby or Josh, as she sat on the bed she found a note from Josh. 'Gone to ATM. Be back soon. Josh'. Donna let out a sigh of relief. She'd listened to them bicker all day, she was thankful for the silence. She also needed time to think about what had happened tonight. She laid back on the bed and closed her eyes, remembering how his hands felt on her shoulders and his lips on hers. Donna put her hand to her cheek, feeling them flush at the memory of Josh kissing her.
'You done?' Toby asked, as Josh was taking his cash from the ATM. He had seen a CVS on their way out of the hotel. 'I'm gonna go get a bottle of water' Josh replied, pointing in the direction of the CVS. 'Quickly though right? Coz I'm pretty sure if we miss this flight Donna will kill us'. 'She probably would' he said as they walked into the CVS. He grabbed a few bottles of water and a bag of chips for Donna. 'You and Donna okay? I thought before, maybe...' Toby said, watching as Josh purposely paid more attention to looking at the different types of gum that were on the shelf. 'Yeah we're fine' Josh said, almost as if on autopilot. Toby wasn't convinced, something was up.
20 minutes by herself should have been really good. It should have been a time to be enjoyed after the day she'd had. Instead Donna spent it thinking about what would happen next. She hoped it wouldn't be brushed aside, she hoped they could talk about what it meant but she didn't like the thought of having to possibly leave a job she loved. The silence of the room was broken when she heard the door being opened. She looked up to see Toby walking through the door, eating a muffin. 'Hey, where's Josh?' 'He's downstairs on the phone to a cab company' he replied as he sat down at the desk. Toby watched as Donna straightened up the bed and got the few things she had together before they had to leave. 'Donna, you okay?' Toby asked. 'Yeah I'm fine, why?' 'Earlier you were kinda pissed at us'. 'Yes, I was'. 'I just wanted check, I got the feeling I walked in on something earlier' he said, watching as Donna's eyes widened. 'No' she said, quickly. 'Don't be pissed at him, he was pissed at me and we took it out on each other. I'm sorry you were caught up in it' Toby said. Donna knew this was genuine coming from Toby. 'I'm not pissed at him. It's just been a really long day. Did he say something to you?' She asked, twirling a strand of hair around her finger. She would be surprised if he had. 'No' he replied, shaking his head.
Of course he didn't say anything, she thought to herself. He wouldn't say anything to anyone right now she suspects, even if Leo or Sam were here. In that moment Donna wished she could talk to someone about what had happened. Someone who didn't work with them. As Donna walked past Toby she heard the door opening. She felt her heart pounding as she looked up and locked eyes with Josh. His dark eyes burning into hers. She could feel herself take an involuntary sharp breath as she felt him look at her with such intensity. 'Hi' he said, almost tripping over that one word. 'Hi' she replied. 'I uh I got you a banana muffin' he said, breaking eye contact for a moment as he held the bag out toward her. 'And a bottle of water, a bag of Cheetos and some gum' he added watching as she smiled at the banana muffin. They're her favourite kind and he knew that. He knew most things she liked, including the Cheetos and the brand of gum. As she looked up from the bag she caught his eye as he smiled at her. 'Thank you' she said. 'No problem' he replied, watching as she took the muffin out of the cellophane. He watched her take a bite before looking away, the last thing she'd want was someone staring at her while she ate. He looked away, finding Toby watching their exchange. Something was different, Toby knew it.
