Safe In Her Arms

Melissa's POV:

I ran back to my dressing room after the final scene. I couldn't face Katie. We just had a mini make out session right in front of everyone! I slammed the door and slid down it letting the tears spill out of my eyes. I'm not sure how long I sat there or how long Katie was banging on the door, but when I finally stood up my eyes were puffy and red from sobbing. The banging stopped and I assumed Katie had gone home with out me. I opened the door and to my surprise Katie was sitting against it all changed into her regular clothes again. "Katie...." I breathed out. "Melissa....are you ok?" Katie asked. "Uh...yea...sorry about earlier...I don't know what came over me..." I said. Katie bit her lip and looked down as her face turned a bright shade of pink. "I'm gonna go change real quick...you can come in if you want...." I added. Katie nodded and walked in after me.

Katie's POV:

That kiss was amazing! I wanted to do it again...and again...all day long. I ran after Melissa. Banging on her door I could her sobbing behind it. I heard her chastising herself. After a few minutes I gave up banging on the door and sat down leaning my back up against it. I hoped she'd come out eventually...and she did...she apologized to me...did she regret it? My head began turning hazy after that. I felt my self nodding and walking in after her. I took a seat on the sofa and waited for her to come out. A few minutes passed and Melissa came out of the bathroom again. "Katie..." Melissa's voice pulled me out of my thoughts. "Yes?" I asked. She opened and shut her mouth a couple times before sitting down on the sofa beside me. "Katie...um...the kiss..." Melissa began. Oh god here it comes...the 'I was just acting...and I felt nothing' speech. I've heard it so many times before now it was nothing new. I mentally prepared for it to come...only it never did. "Katie? Did you hear what I said?" Melisa asked. Shit Katie you miss what she said. "Um sorry...I was lost in my thoughts. What did you say?" I asked. Melissa chuckled and smiled at me. Fucking smile every time she smiled I melted. "I was saying that I don't regret that extend kiss. I just ran in case you may have regretted it." Melissa replied. FUCKING HELL Katie say something! DO SOMETHING! All the sudden my body was moving towards Melissa's. The next thing I knew I was kissing her again.

Melissa's POV:

Oh! MY! GOD! I'm kissing her again! This is absolutely amazing! She obviously doesn't regret it either. We finally parted and just looked at one another. "I...I...don't regret it either." Katie whispered. My brain just stopped working. "You don't?" I heard myself ask. "Not for one second...truth is...I kinda wanted to do it for a long time..." Katie confessed. FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! SHE LIKES ME! OK Melissa calm your tits! Say that you wanted to do it for a long time too. "Me too." I heard my mouth say. "It's late and we have to leave now for Vancouver." Katie said as she stood up extending her hand to me. "Yea..let's go board that plane." I replied as we headed to the awaiting car. 

It was only us in the car everyone had left already. It was nice just being there with Katie. "So...where do we go from here?" Katie suddenly asked. "Well to the airport." I replied unsure of what she was talking about. "Well yes...but what I meant was where do we go from here? I mean we already kissed twice today..." Katie asked. "Where do you want to go?" I asked sheepishly. I looked over at Katie who was looking back at me with her piercing blue and green eyes. "Well...I was thinking I'd let you decide where this should go." Katie said as she moved her hand between us. I slumped back against the seat and shut my eyes letting myself think over everything that lead up to this point. Katie's been the one person who's seen me at my lowest points especially during this divorce. Not even Chyler knew about everything going on. Just Katie. Katie was my 'rock' through everything. I opened my eyes and looked over at Katie who was looking out the window now. "Katie..." I said getting her attention. "Yes?" Katie replied. I opened my mouth and shut it a few times finding courage to say how I felt. "I....I...want to see what happens with us...if you want to...I'll admit I like you...quite a lot..." I said. "Ok...I like you too...so let's see what happens. Ok..." Katie replied.  She likes me too! I just nodded slowly before leaning my head on her shoulder.
