The Cliff House, a little before 7 pm....

Virgil stepped off the monorail and made his way over to Elise's apartment. He rang the bell and waited. He didn't have to wait long before the door opened.

"Virgil! Come on in," Elise ushered him inside.

He stepped inside. "I thought I'd stop by and..."

Luke waved from where he was sitting on the couch. "Hey, Virgil. How's things?"

"Good, thanks." Rommel walked up to him, and Virgil bent down to pat him.

"Luke and I were just talking about the rescue the other day. And the kooks! That was the best part! Virgil, you should have seen Scott. He was trying so hard to hold it all together, when you just knew he wanted to throw them all out of there," Elise said, laughing.

Luke chuckled. "It was pretty funny. I thought we had crashed a pajama party when I went into the med tent."

"Sorry I missed it." Virgil stood with his hands in his pockets, listening as Luke and Elise talked about the Brethren.

Luke finally noticed him standing there and spoke. "Well, Elise. Thanks for dinner. I'll see you tomorrow morning. Say, around nine?" He stood and snapped his fingers and Rommel trotted to his side.

"It's a date!" She walked Luke to the French doors and waved as he walked up the steps. Then she turned back to Virgil. "Sit down. Would you like something to drink?"

Virgil shook his head and sat down on the couch. "No, thanks. What's up tomorrow?" he asked, keeping his voice casual.

She sat down next to him. "Oh, Luke is going to train some of us to work with Rommel. He and your father think it's a good idea for us all to know at least some of the basic commands."

He nodded. "It is a good idea. And we should know if something was to happen to Luke. Remember the tornado? We never know when something like that could happen again."

"I pray that it doesn't," Elise said shuddering.

He smiled at her. "Well, I'm off to Paris in the morning, and wanted to stop in and say good-bye," he said, changing the subject.

"You're so lucky," Elise told him. "I've always wanted to see Paris. To walk the Left Bank with a glass of wine, to gaze at the Mona Lisa, climb the steps at Sacré Coeur, the Eiffel Tower..." her voice trailed off.

Virgil smiled and took her hand. "I guess I'll just have to take you some day."

She turned to him, her green eyes wide. "Virgil..."

"I'll miss you, Elise," he said softly.

Elise blushed and averted her eyes. "I-I'll miss you too."

Virgil tilted her head up and leaned forward, placing a soft kiss on her lips. "Would you like me to bring you back anything?"

She shook her head, then smiled. "Have that glass of wine for me. And relax, don't think about International Rescue. Have yourself a real vacation."

"I promise." He kissed her again. "I have to go..." he told her reluctantly.

"I know." They walked to the door. "Have a good time, Virgil."

"I will. Good-bye, Elise." He pulled her close. "I'll see you soon." He started out the door but turned at her voice.

"I'll miss you too."
