AJ paced the kitchen as he listened to the ringing of the phone.
He was calling Micki, he was furious! Kevin and Howie had decided to pass the news that she was engaged. He was so mad, because he was getting the impression that Micki had a thing for him, the way she had been flirting with him all afternoon.
AJ sighed as he heard the answering machine pick up, "Hi! You've reached Micki and Matt... please leave a message after the tone, thanks," Micki's familiar and beautiful and enchanting voice said.
"Micki, hi, this is AJ, I need to talk to you, so if you could call me back, my number is..." AJ was interuppted to the phone being picked up.
"AJ?" Micki asked.
"Yeah," AJ said, almost bitterly.
"Hey, I need to talk to you. I need to tell you something, do you think you could come over?" she asked, her voice cracked like she had been crying.
"Sure," AJ gave in.
"Thanks," Micki said and gave him directions.
As soon as he hung up the phone he rushed out of his apartment and to his car. He began to drive to see Micki, she sounded so upset. Maybe she wasnt engaged anymore, AJ hoped.
Meanwhile...
"Megan, Im scared, what if he breaks it off?" Micki cried. She was on the phone with Megan and had been for like twenty minutes, repeating the same phrase, Megan Im scared, what if he breaks it off?
"Ok, Mick, look Im telling you this for the last time, he's NOT going to break it off with you. Im sorry if I sound insensitive, but damnit, he loves you, he's not going to break it off," Megan yelled.
"I got to go, AJ is here," Micki said after hearing a knock at the front door.
"Who's AJ?" she asked.
"Bye Meg," Micki said and hung up on her friend.
Micki ran to the door and opened it to see AJ standing before her.
She smiled, even though she knew she looked awful.
Her eyes were red and swollen, he nose was bright pink, and her cheeks were tear stained.
"Care to explain?" AJ asked coming in and putting his arms around Micki.
Micki and AJ sat down on the couch and Micki explained EVERYTHING to AJ. AJ held her in his arms the whole time as she cried and complained about Matt.
"I'm sorry AJ," Micki said wiping her tears with the back of her hand.
"No, its ok, I like listening to you. Holding you," AJ trailed off.
Micki ignored the comment and got up. She walked into the kitchen and got herself a can of orange soda, her favorite.
"Want a drink?" she called.
"Sure," AJ said appearing in the kitchen.
She handed him an orange soda.
"Wow, it's late," AJ commented looking at the clock.
"I'll be ok, if you want to leave," Micki said, her voice, sad.
"No, I can stay a little longer," AJ assured her.
"I'm going to go watch t.v., gonna join me?" Micki asked walking past AJ, trying her best to avoid eye contact with him, in fear that she would look to long and become addicted.
"Sure," AJ said following her.
Micki turned on the televison and sat down on the couch, AJ next to her. Her heart pounded as she could smell him and she would ocassionally look over at him. She wanted so badly to kiss him, her mind wasn't even on Matt anymore, no where near being on her mind.
AJ breathed in Micki's sweet scent, she smelt of strawberries, he loved that scent. He wanted so badly just to turn to her and kiss her and explore her.
Micki turned to AJ and smiled.
"What?" AJ asked looking at her and beautiful smile.
"Nothing," she giggled.
"What?" AJ begged.
"Let's go swimming, I havent been in so long," Micki said smiling.
"Ok," AJ agreed to the idea of seeing less clothes on Micki.
"I'll go change," she jumped up and ran to her room where she slammed the door. AJ got up and looked for the bathroom where he found it at the end of the hall. He walked back out in his boxers.
Micki was in the living room, impatiently waiting. It took AJ a second to take in the gorgeuous figure before him.
Micki wore a barely there black bikini that showed off her amazing figure.
"Ready?" she giggled.
"Yeah," AJ agreed.
Micki ran out the sliding glass doors and did a cannonball into the pool. AJ jumping in after her.
The two swam around, wrestling in the water. AJ cornered Micki, he had both of his arms on either side of her. Micki looked down, like she was scared of what might happen next.
"Micki," AJ whispered.
Micki looked up and stared into AJ's amazing big brown eyes. AJ moved closer to her, just as their faces were inched apart...
