Let's ride!

Oh, no, I'm just moving my mouth and random noises are coming out.

*nuzzles against his neck as he talks to Pam* Why’d you cancel your meeting? 

Something came up.

-Bites onto an apple.- We should get them down here.

Start figuring out a way.

[ pulls away ] Mm, hold on. [ pages the secretary ] Pam, we're finished for today. I'll see you on Monday. "But, sir, you said we'd be meeting tomorrow with--" I'll see you on Monday.

"Y’know, I’m good."

"Did I ask if you were good? No, I don't believe I did. Go on, now. Get me the taffy."

*smiles wider and brushes her nose lightly against his* Just us? So, we’re going to have a secret relationship? Sneak around, not tell anyone? Sounds amazing.

Exactly. A secret relationship.

*her eyes widen in surprise, but she instantly holds his head to her* I’ve missed you too, Kevin. So much.

[ pulls her down into the chair with him ] You'll have to prove to me that you're not going to run off again, okay? You prove that to me, and we'll bring the relationship public again. Until then, it'll be just us, okay?

Why would you need to find me at a later time? You are confusing me, Hopper. I live in the hundred acre wood, though..

So I can introduce you to my friend. Have you not been listening?

Alright, alright. *gets up and walks over,stopping when she’s beside his chair* Yes, Mr Hopper? 

I’ve… yeah, I’ve heard. If it makes you happy to be that way, then I’ll have to be okay with that.  *smiles not because he asked her to, but because she feels things getting better* You want me to come over to your side of the desk? But that’s the boss’ spot.

There it is.

Well..alright, then..

I'll need to know where it is you live so I can find you at another time.

Connections? I don’t understand..

In life. You'll learn, sweetheart. Believe me.

I know we can’t continue from where we were, but I want to try again. *listens to his confession and feels even more ashamed of herself* I’m sorry, Kevin. I know no matter how many times I say that it won’t be enough, but I really am. You have every right to be angry with me, but I really want to make it up to you. You can have all the time you need, I don’t expect you to forgive me, but I hated it when you said love doesn’t exist. I’m sorry I hurt you, I’m sorry I made you doubt love… But if you’ll let me, I want to give us a second chance. 

[ eats some of the food, letting her speak without getting angry for once ] I'm sure you've heard that I've changed, and I have. There are certain people that are pleased with these changes. I'm one of them. I don't plan on going back to that person who backs down so easily, and you have to understand that if you want this second chance. Just come over here. Let me see you smile.
