Floating Carrie: I had a great time tonight. Mike: Me, too. Good night. Carrie leans in for a kiss, but Mike just smiles at her. He turns and goes to his room, and leaves Carrie standing out in the hall. Inside his room, Mike crumples up the astrological charts and sits down, frustrated. Carrie goes into her room, looking at the charts, and notices that there are no messages. She flashes back to the alphabet game she and Mike played on the way to Las Vegas. The scene goes back to Mike, who paces around the room. Mike: Carrie, I love you so much. He takes off his coat, and turns on the radio just in time to hear "How Do I Live?". Mike has flashbacks of the evening - putting Carrie's necklace on her, dancing with Carrie at dinner, and playing craps. Mike: I can't take this anymore. Finally, Mike throws his door open and knocks on Carrie's door. When she answers, he pulls her to him and gives her an urgent, passionate kiss (the kind of kiss that makes your heart drop to the floor!). She looks up at him, dumbfounded. Mike: (softly) I love you. He heads back to his room, as Carrie tries to catch her breath. She tries to forget the kiss, but alas - she does not... There is a knock on Mike's door, and he opens it to find Carrie standing there. Mike: Carrie...Why did you come to my room? Carrie: Same reason you came to mine. Carrie stands on her tiptoes and kisses him gently. His arms encircle her. Mike: You realize, of course, I'm not going to let you leave here. Carrie: I don't want to. I couldn't stand another minute without you, Mike. Make love to me...Please make love to me. They move into Mike's room and he shuts the door behind them - all while holding Carrie's hand tightly. They collide in another passionate kiss, and Mike lifts her off her feet. Carrie helps Mike take off his robe, and their lips meet in another kiss. Mike slips Carrie's nightgown to the floor, and he nuzzles her shoulder. He leads her over to the bed, before he pulls away from her. Mike: This isn't right. Carrie: Mike, what's wrong? Mike: I want you...I want you more than I've ever wanted anyone or anything in my entire life. But this first time, it has to be something that neither one of us ever can forget. This isn't just about physical desire, it's about our heart's desires. It's not just about possessing each other's bodies, it's about uniting our hearts and our souls. I want to make all of your fantasies come true, I want to make love to you until there's nothing left in this whole world except you and me alone here together...(whispering) I love you. Carrie: I love you, too. Make love to me. Mike looks at her tenderly and begins kissing her forehead, her cheeks, until their lips meet in a passionate kiss. They make love while the stars of heavens look down upon them. Carrie: I never want this night to end. Mike: Well, the night will end, but the love that we share and the life that we have...be it's tonight. I promise you it will never end. Mike and Carrie kiss again in the midst of the flowers, lights, and stars. Carrie: This night has been like a dream. Mike: But it's really happening. We're finally together. They kiss softly. Carrie: (looking upward) Look at that. There is a heaven full of stars above them. Carrie: I never want this night to end. Mike: It doesn't have to. Carrie: I love you. Mike and Carrie look upward as the sky explodes with fireworks. Carrie: Remember the Fourth of July fireworks last year at the Brady/Horton picnic? Mike: How could I forget that? That was our first real kiss. Carrie: It was right after you were named Chief of Staff. Mike: I wanted us to be together that night, just like this. Carrie: Yeah, me too. Mike: We fought our attraction for months, but you know what? I knew I was going to lose in the end. I was going to lose that fight. It was inevitable (he begins leaning closer to Carrie)...It was fate (closer...)...It was kismet... Mike leans in for a kiss and the bed goes flying through the air again...
