Rating:PG-13
Day 1 Of the plan:
I wake up and call the flower shop to order Jordan's flowers they promised me, because I'm paying extra money, to have the flowers on her desk before she gets there. By the time I walk into my office I have been stopped at least ten times. Cal asked me about camera positions, Harry asked if everything was okay with Matt, which I said to her if you want to know ask him. I close the door as I walk into my office and leaned on it. So when Matt comes rushing into my office I got knocked onto the floor.
"Oof"
"That was not my fault." Matt says as he helps me off the floor.
"You could have knocked first." I walk to my desk irritated and plop into my chair.
"I never knock it takes too much time." He falls heavy off the chair opposite me and puts his feet on my desk. "So?" Matt asks as he puts his hands behind his head.
"So what?" I ask looking for a pen to write with, I really have to clean my desk.
"What happening with Jordan? I thought I saw her talking to you last night, what did she say?" I sigh heavy because I really don't want Matt to know what she said to me. I still feel so stupid about what happened.
"Just to tell me to stop perusing her. I told her I would because she doesn't want me. And I don't want to be with someone that doesn't like me." I give up looking for a pen and get out of my chair. I walk out of my office with Matt on my tail.
"Really? You just let it go just like that? I don't believe you, that's not like you." He runs in front of me and starts walking backwards.
"Well I hate to tell you but that's the way it went. So deal with and lets get back to work." As I try to misdirect him the funniest thing happens. Matt's assistant was walking towards us just as she reached, Matt turned around and slammed into her. All of the papers that she had in her arms went everywhere and Matt landed on the floor.
I bend down and stage-whisper to Matt. "You know you might want to watch where you're going." I walk away counting down the hours to when I will see or talk to Jordan again.

Day 4:
The last two days have been a world-wind of rehearsing for the show. Matt let go of the Jordan thing for now. I think it's because Harriet, Matt has been hearing that she might be going out with I told him to either shut up or doi something about it. This week I have been all about the work so that I wouldn't have time to think of Jordan. That didn't work out so well because she still slipped into my mind ever now and then.
Today is the day I get to see her beautiful face and hear her voice that always picks me up. Tonight is the show and I know for a fact that Jordan will never miss a show.
I walk onto the stage floor and to my chair and t.v. I pick up the phone and call up to Cal in the booth.
"Ready?"
"All set boss. Hey Matt was just in here and wanted me tell you to go see him." Cal answers back to me.
"Did he say why?" I ask confuse, what the hell would Matt want right now.
"Nope."
"Okay I'll let everyone now." I hang up the phone and look for an intern. As I spot one I call for her.
"Suzie!"
She walks to me and asks what I wanted.
"Make the announcement and then let the dress audience in."
"Okay." She walks to the red phone and says over the loudspeaker.
"Everyone you have two minutes, I repeat two minutes." Suzie puts the phone down and walks to let the people in.
Oh shit I forgot that Matt wanted to see me before the dress. I rush out of my sit and run up the stairs and into his office.
I walk in to see him with his eyes closed and standing up with his face towards his window that looks toward the stage.
"Hey you wanted to see me."
Matt turns toward me with a worried face. Oh god he wants to change a skit. He does this ever time before the dress. he gets worried that the audience won't laugh at any the jokes. I'm not in mood to do this right now.
"This week has been hectic and I haven't asked you how its been with you and Jordan. Did you guys talk?" I knew he wouldn't give this up.
"Matt we don't have time for this the show is about to start." I walk out the office slamming the door behind me. I can't do this ,I can't think of her right now ,my head has to be in the show.
As I get to my seat Simon comes up to me.
"Hey are we ready man?" I hand him the microphone.
"Do your job." He walks away get the audience ready for the show. The actors get situated behind the stage. Matt comes out of his office and stands looking over the railing. I look up to him and he gives me the thumbs up, I do the same back. Simon finishes giving the audience the instruction and we start.
"5,4,3," I give the two seconds by hand and the actors start the first skit of the show.
-An Hour Later-
The audience loved the show, but now I have to go up to Matt and do the part I hate the most. Picking what skits stay and which go.
Cal is already there when I get there.
"We have to cut 20 minutes and 42 seconds out." Matt and I look at the board and think which skits were better then the others.
Matt walks to the board and takes down two skits.
"I think that these while they were funny it sounded a little forced. What do you think Danny?" I was about to answer when the phone rang. Matt went to his desk and picked it up.
"Albie...Yea one sec." He puts the phone on his shoulder and looks at me.
"What? Who is it?"
"Jordan's assistant." He hands the phone to me and look at it before taking it and answering.
"Yea Kevin?"
"Danny, Jordan would like to see right now." Uh oh. What did I do?
"Do you know what its about?"
"Nope, See ya soon." Kevin hangs up the phone. I take the phone off my ear and just look at it.
"What did he want?" Its probably nothing just to talk about the show. I walk out the office to the NBS building. I have so many thoughts running in my mind that I don't realize that I'm at her office until Kevin says I can go in.
I knock on the door and go in before she can say anything.
"You wanted to see me?" I close door the behind and look expectantly at her. God she looks good.
"Yea listen I've been talking to some people, well really just Martha, anyway um... I wanted to talk you about what you said last week. I know I told you I wanted you stop-" I don't want to hear how she doesn't want me, so I cut her off.
"And I didn't ,I told you no. I mean I know I haven't spoken to you in a while but I didn't stop thinking about you. So you can say anything you want but it's not going to stop me. So if you don't mind I have things to do." I back up and walk towards the door. Just as I touch the doorknob Jordan calls my name. I turn around to see Jordan walking toward me. When she's five feet away stops and continues her speech.
"I wasn't going to say anything like that if you had let me finish. I don't know what I want, but I do know that the past week sucked. I haven't talked to you unless its about work and I miss that. I miss knowing that I can trust you unlike anyone I have been with before. So while I don't exactly know how I feel about, but I do know that I'm willing to give us a try. So what do you say?" I just stand there frozen with my eyes wide. I can't believe that she just said that! If you Martha was here right now I would.... I don't know what I'd do. My mind, I can't even think right now I have so many thoughts going through my mind that I can't concentrate on one thing.
"Danny? You are okay? Are you even breathing?" Jordan asks with a teasing smile.
"Um... Yea uh I'm great. " I don't know what to say to her.
"What?... So if I ask you out to dinner for tonight what would say?" I ask finally getting my smile and voice back.
"I would say yes." She says quietly as she steps closer.
"So Jordan are you busy tonight?" I ask taking the final step so that I could put my arms loosely around her waist.
"Nope." She smiles at me and puts her arms around my neck. I love the feeling of her hands on me.
"Jordan will please have dinner with me tonight?"
"Yes." Jordan whispers before leaning in to kiss me lightly against my lips. She starts to pull back but I stop and deepen the kiss. The last thing I think before I'm lost in her is "This the greatest moment of my life."
