I hate packing.
Packing sucks.

You never realize just how much stuff you have until you try to stuff it into a million boxes. And then when it doesn't fit, you end up trying to put some stuff in some other stuff in an attempt to consolidate room. But then you get frustrated by it all and end up throwing, like, half of your stuff out only to replace it with even more stuff once you get to where you're going.

It's a vicious and horrible cycle.

A cycle of stuff.

I hate packing.

Maybe you could donate some of the excess to Anne and the kids. They could have a rummage sale in the hotel lobby. Block party!

Hope you're doing alright.....

Hmmm.

You know, if you happened to mislabel everything . . . accidently of course, and the vast amount of your clothing and such wound up in Siberia it would be the absolutely perfect excuse to go shopping.

But on whose's credit card, that's the question.

By the way, how is the loaded . . . I mean the brooding one?

Hy now. That wouldn't be right.

It would be fun.

But it wouldn't be right...

I suppose I could threaten him with it, though. Strategically placed catalogues lying about.... A word here, a word there....

Sorry. Already depostited my first months's rent. Unless you can give me a damn good reason, I'm obligated.

Look, I'll refund your deposit, whatever, but don't go.

I've got a reason, okay? And it's . . . it's . . .

Been wanting to say this to you for a week, and now it's time I can't do it. Figures.

Part of it is I don't want to have to go out to Santa Monica every time I want to see you . . . which is more often than I've been letting you know. I don't want to pay for the gas and I don't want to deal with the traffic. I just . . . I want you here with me. And not to ignore you some more either. For real this time.

Yes, well you have a wonderful way of showing that. What with the avoidance and general jackassery and all.

I haven't been . . . okay, yes I have, and I should probably stop pretending.

Look, I'm sorry about that. I'm really sorry about that. It was just . . . things were really weird, and we've had this conversation, and look, I'm not trying to make excuses here. Despite the fact that I sort of am.

I just want things to go back to being okay between us. Guess I probably have a ways to go before that happens, huh. I'm still . . . sorry.

I should probably stop apologizing now.

But it's not the point. The point is convincing you to stay and . . . I haven't done a very good job of that yet. When even I can tell that, that's . . . yeah.

I . . . if I don't do this now they're going to call me stupid again, and I'm tired of that, so here goes nothing.

Cordy, I love you. And not in the friend way, and I think you know that and you have for a while and you just really enjoy making me sweat. And there it is. Laugh or walk away or whatever you want to do, but there it is.

You're the reason Nina didn't work. And the reason that that thing with Morrigan would never have worked -- okay, half. Turner had a lot to do with it too, but -- you're the reason for a lot of things. And now that I have you back, I really don't want to lose you again and yeah, I've been doing a good job of it because I was scared of losing you.

That's all I have, Cordy. If it's not enough . . . it's not enough.

Well, it's about time.

And all I had to do was threaten to leave for you to get your ass in gear. Men. Pfft.

I love you, too.

Uh... honestly, I don't know. On the one hand... well... you know. But on the other, I rather miss having my own place, you know. I was so proud of the last apartment. It was nice.

If I do stay, where do we go from this? Back to whatever with this hanging over our heads again, or legitimate relationship?

That's . . . hmm. I'm gonna say it's up to you here, Cordelia. I mean, what you said a few weeks ago, it's true -- one good stake in the heart and I'm gone, too -- but you're the one, it seems like, you're the one with more at stake here.

Stake. Heh.

I'm just saying, if you want to go . . . 'legitimate', then I'm . . . I do too. But if you don't want to . . . I'm okay with that. Really.

Well, it's really . . . whatever you want.


...


Okay, that's not going to get us anywhere. I say . . . I say let's do it. Look, I've wasted enough time when we don't even know how much we have left and it was dumb and I'll admit to that. So let's just . . . can we move past how dumb I am and get on with our lives?

This is all so sweet.

I still think it's time to go shopping.

I mean, just imagine trying to get everything out of those boxes. And the wrinkles.

Better to start fresh.

I know that.

I just post comments like that to get her to smile.

Somehow I think that she's not going to need that anymore.
