A Christmas Romance

                                                         Part 2

                                            Written By Sarah Partridge

                                   ***NO INFRINGEMENT INTENDED***

"So Maggs, about this cruise, where exactly is it to?" asked PJ from his seat from the 
C.I office. "Well it's up north around the Great Barrier Reef, and then around a
few islands around there," she replied. "Oh yeah, and how exactly do you plan on getting 
to Queensland?" he asked in a worried voice. "You see there's this thing
called an airplane," she teased. "No way you've got to be joking," he said sounding even 
more worried. "What's wrong with that," she said in a curious kind voice.
"It's just that I um, well I um…" "What?" she interrupted. "I'm terrified of flying, Ok, 
you happy," he said turning his back to her. "That's so cute," she said with a
giggle. "What's so 'cute' about it," he said turning around to find himself standing 
practically on top of her. "A grown man being scared of flying isn't cute, it's sad," he
said as the red blush crept across his face. "Now PJ there's no need to be scared, you 
can hold my hand, sit in my lap, and we can even join the mile high club if you
want!" she said with a cheeky grin on her face. "Well, with persuasion like that how 
could I possibly say no!" "Oh well, I guess we'd better get back to doing some
work." Before leaving she leant down to kiss PJ who was (once again) sitting in his big 
leather chair. As Maggie left the C.I office Dash said to her with a cheeky
smile, "Hey Maggs, did you kill the spider?" "Yeah actually, I did," Maggie replied with 
an even cheekier smile.

 

That night PJ decided to surprise Maggie, so he went out and hired a tuxedo and a 
limousine and he bought Maggie a short midnight blue dress, a dozen red roses
and a box of chocolates. He turned up on her doorstep at 7:30pm and knocked on the 
door. A few seconds later Dash opened the door and was absolutely
shocked at what she saw, PJ wearing a tux, holding roses, and a box and chocolates. 
"Good evening Diedre, is Margaret home," he said in his best posh voice.
"Yeah, sure, come in," said Dash. "Maggs," she yelled from the hallway "Come here." 
"Yeah what is it?" Maggie replied walking out in her pyjamas whilst drying her
hair. "Oh my god," her mouth dropped as she saw PJ. "Good evening Miss Margaret Doyle, 
I was wondering if you would like to accompany me to dinner," he said
handing her the chocolates and roses. "What now?" she replied. "Yes Miss Margaret now," 
he said still using his posh voice. "But look at me, I'm in my pyjamas."
"Ah ha my love, that's where this comes in," he said handing her the box. "What is it?" 
she asked as she accepted the box. "Just a small gift,…… why don't you open
it and find out." Maggie looked at him as she untied the ribbon from around the box, 
took the lid off and lifted out the dress. "Oh it's beautiful," she said as she
admired the dress. "I hope it fits," he added, as Maggie threw herself into his arms 
saying "Thank you PJ, thank you so much!" The hug intensified as they started to
kiss, and Maggie could feel PJ's hand going up the back of her T-shirt, and as Dash 
saw this she just turned and looked the other way. "Ah," Maggie giggled as she
felt his hand brush against her back, "That tickles," she squealed pulling away from 
PJ's lips. "Come on you, go and get changed," he said to Maggie pointing towards
her room. "Oh yeah, but where are we going," she said walking towards her room. 
"Surprise!" he called back. 

 

"Um, PJ now that Maggie's gone I want to ask you something." "What?" asked PJ curiously. 
"Well I just want to make sure of something,….. you do love her don't
you?" "Dash." "No, PJ, I just want to know, after every thing with Robbie, she's very 
fragile at the moment." "Dash, I've never told anyone this, not even Maggs. I,…
I love her more than I've ever loved anyone in my whole life, from the first moment 
I saw her on the highway, four long years ago, I've been totally in love with her.
She's all I ever think about, day and night, so trust me, now that I've got a chance, 
I'm not going to blow it!" "PJ that's so romantic, I didn't think you liked to share
you feelings." "I don't, that's why I've never told her." "Well, you should, because 
she'll fall even more in love with you than she already is!" "Do you think so?" he
asked. "Hey PJ, I don't think so I know so," she smirked. "Thanks Dash, you know something
Maggs is really lucky to have a friend so caring as you." "Yeah, but
she's also really lucky too have someone that loves her as much as you do," she replied.
 "So really, she's just lucky all round!" he said with a smile. "Well yeah," Dash
laughed in agreement.

 

"What are you two talking about," said Maggie as she walked into the living room. 
PJ stood up to greet her, and as he did he said, "Margaret Doyle you look
sensational." "Thanks," she replied with a smile. At the same time PJ slid his arms 
around her waist and once again began to passionately kiss her. "Come on PJ we'd
better go," she said leading him to the front door. "See ya guys, have a nice night, 
and don't do anything I wouldn't do," said Dash laughing. As PJ went to open the
front door Maggie said to him, "Hang on a sec PJ I have to get my car keys." As she 
turned around PJ Spun back around so that she was facing him. "No need," he
said. "No, I'm not letting you drive after you've done so much already," she replied. 
"Oh I'm not driving," he said opening the door and pointing outside to the
limousine, "He is." Maggie almost fainted when she saw the limo but instead she turned 
around and said to him "I love you so much Patrick Joseph Hasham," "I love
you to Maggs," he replied. Dash smiled at the as they walked hand in hand to the 
limousine.

                                                               

                                                            *****

"Do you want a coffee," asked Maggie as herself and PJ entered the house. "No thanks 
it's a bit too late, I'll be awake all night if I had one now, but I will have some
tea." "Yeah actually, that sounds like a good idea, it can't be to good for you to drink 
coffee at 2o'clock in the morning." Maggie walked into the living room where
PJ was sitting and she handed him his tea, and sat down facing him. "Thank you for 
tonight, it was the best night of my whole entire life," she said to him. "Anything
for you Maggs, anything," as he said it PJ reached across and put a stray lock of hair 
back behind Maggie's ear. Then Maggie held his hand and brought it close to
her face then she moved forward and kissed him more passionately than she had ever kissed 
anyone in her whole life. "Do you want to stay here tonight?" she asked
him between small but passionate kisses. "Well I guess I have to, because the limo's 
gone, and I don't have my car here," he said still talking between kisses. PJ
decided that this should be the time that he told Maggie what he had told Dash, so he 
drew away from her kisses and looked into her brown eyes and said "Maggs,
there's something I want you to know." "What?" she asked in a worried voice. "I love 
you more than I've ever loved anyone in my whole life, and I never ever want
to lose you. You mean the world to me, and I never want you to forget it, or this, 
because I don't share my feelings very often." "I know you don't say how you're
feeling in so many words, but you do drop pretty big hints, like tonight for example, 
and the fact that you would risk your job to help Robbie, just for me. Oh and PJ,
I'll never forget this, not in a million years!" "Wow Maggs, I'm glad you noticed, do 
you reckon anyone else at work did?" "I don't know, but I don't really care if
they did!" she said leaning forward to kiss him. Now that PJ had released his feelings 
in words, he decided it was time to do it with passion as well. He felt Maggie's
hand touch his chest and she'd started to undo the buttons on his shirt, so he but his 
hands on here back and undid the zip on the back of her dress, and slid the thin
straps down her arms. As he did this he took off the her dress and left it lying on the 
floor and picked up Maggie and carried her into the bedroom, lying her down
on the bed where he continued to passionately kiss her.

 

"Maggie the boss just called and he wants you to come in," said Dash walking past 
Maggie's room. When she saw that the door was slightly open she stuck her head
in, and she saw Maggie lying naked wrapped in a sheet in PJ's arms.

She smiled at the sight of them looking so happy together, and as she walked past the 
living room to the kitchen she saw Maggie's dress on the floor and giggled at
the thought of what they must have got up to. Instead of waking them up to tell them 
they're wanted at work she left them a note:

To Maggs (& PJ)

Congratulations on you new found love, and the Boss wants you two in for work as 
soon as you're awake, he also said he had difficulty in
contacting PJ, gee I guess he didn't try your bed!! 

LOVE DASH

P.S. Your secret is safe with me, as long as I get the details, and you two don't 
always leave you clothes in the middle of the floor! (He, he, he, ha, ha,
ha!)
