Chapter 61


I walk over to side stage with tears in my eyes.  Tiffany, Sarah, and Shena all walk over to me.
"Whoa, now that was romantic."  Tiffany says.
"Yeah, you guys are so cute.  I especially liked it when he put his arms around you when he sang 'I just wanna be close to you.'  That was just too sweet."  Shena says.
"Suzy?  You OK?"  Sarah asks me when she notices that I'm shaking.
"Yeah I'm fine.  Just still in a little shock that's all.  You guys know how stage shy I get."  I say.  "The concerts almost over.  AJ told me to meet him in front of the building after the concert.  God only knows why though.  It's kind of dangerous for him to be in front of the building."
"OK, we'll tell him that your out there waiting."  Sarah says.
"OK" I say.

(In front of the building)

The street's of Paris are crowded in front of the auditorium where I stand.  As I think about the concert, I realize how great it was.  I can't believe AJ actually brought me out and sang to me.  The music is still ringing in my ears.  The people are beginning to disperse and the cool night air blows against my skin.  I hear footstep's behind me and they're getting closer.  Then I feel arms encircle my waist.  As he leans in, I can feel the heat of his breath against my ear.  Instantly I know it is him.  The scent of his cologne arises through the air and surrounds me with his essence.  I melt in his arms and turn my head to look into his deep brown eyes.  It is as if his eyes are a gateway to his soul, and he reveals all to me.  There is so much emotion in his eyes, I have to turn away.  If we move too quickly, we might loose each other again.  He pulls me closer to him.  I can feel his warm breath against my face as he leans in to kiss me.
Just as our lips start to touch, a loud uprise clamors through the crowd as someone yells, "There's AJ!"
Our moment is broken and as he turns to leave, he slips a piece of paper into my hand and gives me a quick kiss on the cheek.  The limo pulls up and he jumps in the back.  As they speed away, I open the note.
It reads:  "Come see me.  I'm staying at La Grande Royale in sweet 406.  If anyone asks, your seeing Mr. C. Matthew's.  They'll know I sent you."
I think to myself, 'La Grande Royale?  That's where Tiffany and I are staying."

(At the hotel with Tiffany)

"I can't believe this.  We're not only staying at the same hotel; we're on the same floor."  I say as Tiffany and I walk towards our room.
"Maybe it's fait."  Tiffany says as she unlocks the door.
I walk in and sit on the couch.
 "Tiffy G?  What am I going to do?  How do I tell AJ I'm...how do I tell him he's going to be a...how do I tell him?"  I ask.
"Girl, I couldn't tell you.  You need to tell him soon though."  Tiffany says.
"Yeah, I will."  I say.
"So, you going to go see him?"  Tiffany asks.
"You bet.  I haven't seen him in about two months."  I say walking for the door.
"Are you guys going to...you know?"  Tiffany asks with a smile.
"Girl I'm pregnant.  I can't do that."  I say.
"You're only two months along."  Tiffany says.
"Well, we'll figure out what's going to happen when I tell AJ that I'm...pregnant."  I say walking out the door.
I walk down the hall looking at the door numbers.  '410...409...408...407...406.'  I take a deep breath and knock on the door lightly.  I can hear footsteps walking towards the door.  I hear the door unlock.  AJ slowly opens the door.  Looking at him standing in the doorway, I gasp.  He doesn't have a shirt on; and all he's wearing are Calvin Klien boxer briefs.

"Come in love."  AJ says.
I walk in; my hearts racing.  I sit down on the couch as he sits down next to me.
"You're not going to believe this but, my rooms just up the hallway."  I say.
"You serious?"  AJ asks.
"Yeah, I couldn't believe it either."  I say.
"That's cool; now we're just a couple feet away.  Just like old times."  AJ says.  "OK, that's it.  I'm going to finish what we kept trying to start."
"What?  What do you mean?"  I ask.
"This."  AJ says as he pulls me close to him and presses his lips against mine.  He slips his tongue in my mouth; touching my tongue.  Feeling his hand on my waist; makes me tremble.  He caresses my cheek ever so softly; I now realize just how much I've missed him.  "Oh God, I've missed you."  We keep kissing; as he moves his hand down my side.  He rubs his hand up and down my thigh.  Then he starts to unbutton my pants; I push his hand away from my pants.
"What?  What's wrong?"  AJ asks.
"I just...I don't want to do this; not tonight."  I say.
"You don't want to make love?"  AJ asks.
"I just want to...I need time to make up for all the time we missed."  I say.
AJ sits there for a minute looking at the floor.  My nerves are so raw right now; I start feeling like I'm going to be sick.  I run to the bathroom.
