Toni and lays her head gently on his chest inhaling his Calonge wrapping her hands around his waist as he does the same as he embraces her body pulling her close to him slowly inhaling her sweet perfume
Toni: So what about you? I mean I know you haven't since Tracey passed away but do you think about getting back out there
Kenny: Yea but with work, I don't have the time, I'm focused on keeping you safe right
Toni: Oh I see, well when you do find her she better not break your heart, you are a good person Ken.

Looking into each other eyes Toni bites her lip slightly as they realize the music had stopped.
Toni: Ummm the music stopped
