Disclaimer: Not mine. Archive: Anywhere. ~*~*~ Curling up in bed, C.J. felt her stomach turn to knots and she hit the pillow with her fist again. She couldn't get to sleep, there were too many thoughts running through her head. Rolling onto her back, she stared up at the cieling and blew out some air. "You really need to get some sleep," David mumbled. "Did I wake you?" she asked, though not caring one way or the other. "No," he told her. "C.J., are you still thinking about what you told Danny and then what he said to you? 'Cause, if you are, I really don't care. And, I mean, don't they usually run a photo for you? Hey, I think I'm a pretty photogenic type of guy." Turning her head, C.J. glared at him. "You think this is funny don't you?" Shrugging, David smiled. "If you look at it in a certain light it is. Hey, how do you even know he's really going to do it? He could've just been trying to get a rise out of you, which he did." "You could be right," she whispered and then looked down at the ring she was wearing on her finger. Earlier that night she had decided just to start wearing it out in the open instead of on the chain. Said she wanted to really feel engaged. "Now that were awake, there's this thing that I've been meaning to ask you," C.J. started, her voice a bit shaky. "We haven't talked about it much, but it needs to be." "And what would that be?" he asked, sitting up. "The wedding," she said hestitantly. Hearing him groan softly, C.J. glared in the dark. "Listen, my mother has been craming ideas down my throat for three days now. Either we do it her way or we do it ours. And the way things are going around here and since you and I are having some communication problems, it seems as if it's going to be done her way." Stunned, David rested his head back. "I just never thought that a wedding would be so hard." "What, did you expect it to fall out of the sky or something?" C.J. asked sarcastically." "Hey!" He cried and turned to her. "That was harsh, don't you think? Do you always get this bitchy when you don't get any sleep?" "Yes," she answered. Rolling his eyes at her answer, he stared at her. "What do you want to do for our wedding?" "Elope." "Wouldn't that be a story for the papers," David laughed. Shrugging, C.J. said, "I don't care. My father was the one who put the idea in my head. Before he died, he told me that he'd give me the money to just elope." "Maybe we should do that then." Rubbing a hand over his face, David shook his head roughly before sinking back down into the bed, bringing C.J. with him. "But can we finish this conversation in the morning? I've got to be up in two hours." ~*~*~ The first place Josh went that morning when he got to work was C.J.'s office. Seeing her gripping the newspaper tightly and the look on her face, his suspicions were answered. "He ran it. I gave him the green light and he went off speeding," she growled and through the paper down. "Damn it!" Picking it up, he skimmed the article and coughed, "At least he was nice about it." "Yeah," she replied bitterly. After a few moments of silence, Josh asked softly, "So what are you going to do now?" "What do you think I'm going to do? Get married of course," C.J. answered confidently. ~*~*~ Hope to hear what y'all have to say about this little diddy! :) I love feedback. And the more I get, the faster I get out the stories.
