Allison was led into a candlelit room, the walls burgandy and the carpet a deep chocolate brown. The man leading her had a soft hand, but firm; his fingers were  warm and comforting pressure that reassured Allison that nothing was going to happen to her. The man walked behing her, his musky scent dancing around Allison, and those gentle fingers took off her blindfold. Allison gasped in surprise at her surroundings and turnd around to embrace her faceless lover. "Oh Lee," She whispered against his neck. "It's beautiful,"The man, now the broad and strong Lee Scanlon smiled at her and kissed her softly.

"Allison," His voice rumbled in his chest. "Marry me," Allison pulled back and turned away. Lee's hands were now resting on her shoulders instead of around her waist.

"You know I can't, Lee,"

"Why not?"

"Joe, Ariel, Bridgett, Marie..." Allison looked him square in the eye. "What would happen to the girls?"

"The girls will..." Lee trailed off, unsure of how to answer. "We'll do waht's best for the girls," He finished.

"And Joe?"

"Joe doesn't deserve you," Lee wound his arms around her, pulling her against his chest. "I love you, Allison,"

"I love you too," Allison stroked his cheek softly and pulled him down for a soul searing kiss.

Joe sat up strait in bed, startling Allison from her quiet sleep.

"What is it?" She murmered sleepily.

"Nothing, bad dream," Joe responded absently.

"Wanna talk about it?"

"Rather not," Joe laid back. "Go to sleep, I'm fine<'
