           Genevieve sat at a table in the coffee house the next morning sipping her coffee. She was waiting for Tucker to join her but he had a meeting at McCall that morning. She was still feeling guilty for sending Sharon away so Tucker decided to take her out to breakfast. "Well look who it is, all alone I see." Jill said sneaking up behind Genevieve. Genevieve turned around, "What do you want?" she snarled "I’m getting my morning coffee why do you care?" Jill replied sharply. "I don’t care what you do but you seem to make it your business what Tucker and I do." "That’s because it is my business." "No last time I checked he was my fiancé and not yours." "Yeah when did this whole we’re engaged thing start?" "He asked me the day of the trial and I said yes." "Just like that?" "Yep just like that." "I hate to burst your bubble Genevieve but Tucker isn’t the kind of guy who would propose out of the blue for no reason." "First of all, I’ve known him longer then you have and second of all; there is a reason he proposed to me." "What would that be?" "He loves me and I love him what more do you need?" Tucker came walking in the coffee house and saw Genevieve sitting at a table and Jill was standing next to her. "If it isn’t my two favorite girls." Tucker chuckled as he walked over to them. He bent to kiss Genevieve, "Hey" she said. "Oh please, get a room." Jill snarled "It’s a free country." Tucker said taking a seat at the table. "I’m leaving." Jill huffed "It’s about time." Genevieve said with relief.

          "Was she giving you a hard time?" Tucker asked "Not too bad I can hold my own most of the time." Genevieve replied taking a sip of coffee. "I have a surprise for you." "A surprise? Oh I’m so scared." She laughed. Tucker pulled two strips of paper out of his wallet and laid them on the table. Genevieve bent to look at them; she touched one of the strips with her thumb, "Oh Tucker." She whispered. "Two tickets to Paris." He said "For us?" she asked "Yes, you and I are leaving first thing tomorrow morning and I haven’t even told you the best part yet." "What would that be?" Tucker took both of her hands and looked deep into her eyes, "Genevieve would you do me the honor of becoming my wife in Paris?" Genevieve felt her heart begin to race, she was so caught up in the moment; she knew that she had promised herself not to rush into things but she was in love, "Yes." She replied. They two of them leaned into kiss over the table. From the corner of the coffee house Jill stood glaring at them. "Are you okay?" came a voice. Jill turned to see Katherine standing there. "No I’m not but I’m not going to trouble you with my problems." Jill said. "Oh no, we’re having this conversation come on." Katherine said leading Jill to the nearest table. Once they sat down Katherine took a good look at Jill; she looked very tired and like she hadn’t had a good day in weeks. "What’s troubling you?" Jill glanced at Tucker and Genevieve again. They had stopped kissing but were still holding hands. Katherine followed Jill’s gaze, "Oh for heaven sake Jill you can’t be serious?" Jill looked back at Katherine. "Katherine, I’m not sure how you’re gonna take this but I’m in love with your son." Jill admitted. Katherine looked at Jill then to Tucker and Genevieve and then back at Jill, "Let me tell you something Jill, you can do so much better than my son. As much as it pains me to say that it’s the truth. I feel sorry for poor Genevieve she seems like she’s falling pretty hard for him." "She is Katherine and she’s gonna get what she deserves, that man stealer." Jill snapped. "Hold on, I don’t think she deserves anything of what Tucker is capable of, no woman does but Sharon fell for it, Genevieve is falling for it and I don’t want you to." "I already have." Jill said looking at Tucker. "Jill listen to me; he was using Sharon to get to Newman, I don’t know what he’s using Genevieve for yet but it can’t be good." "Katherine, what could he use me for though?" Jill questioned "To get to Chancellor?" Katherine thought "No he wouldn’t do that because he knows not to mess with you and you’re his mother and as much as you don’t want to believe it he does care about you." Jill told her. Before Katherine had a chance to respond Tucker and Genevieve walked up to them, "Mother we have some news for you." Tucker said "What would that be?" Katherine asked not bothering to look at him. "Gen and I are flying to Paris tomorrow." "What for?" Jill asked stunned "We’re getting married!" Genevieve exclaimed. Jill stood up; "Well!" she screamed and stormed out of the coffee house. Katherine looked at Tucker and then to Genevieve, "Excuse me Genevieve I’d like to speak to my son alone." "Oh sure that’s fine, I’ll see you at home." Genevieve said kissing Tucker goodbye. Katherine stood up, "What are you doing Tucker?" she asked "I’m in love Katherine and I’m getting married." He responded "No, a man like you can’t feel love; what are you using that poor woman for?" "Using her? I’m in love with her!" "You only get close to people to use them for your own personal business." "No Katherine this is love but I guess you would see me as being a selfish bastard because that’s just how you are." Tucker shouted and left the coffee house.
