Much later..........MONROE:((Wakes with a start and can't believe the lovely vision standing in front of him:))
ALMA! Is that really you? Your dress! You look....... more beautiful than anyone I've ever seen in my whole life! ((Forgets every little thought of decorous and comforting comments he was planning to make))
Oh, ALMA!!!(( Inspired by strong love and the equally strong vibes of that particular place, grabs hold of her, walks her backwards a couple of steps, pushes her up against the wall beside the stairwell, and kisses her thoroughly and soundly. ))
((And kisses her))
((And kisses her some more))
((Gasps and looks into her face, deep into her eyes, like she's the answer to all and every riddle of life))
My sweetest! My very dearest! Oh my! I don't ... I can't........we have to...... (( Arms and legs borrowing strength born of passion, he lifts her up, and holding her close takes the long flight of stairs to the apartment door, two steps at a time. ))
This is one night you're not turning me out!!!
