Summary
“Can we, by any chance, talk about this particular topic sometime when I’m not approaching legally insane levels of sleep deprivation? Like tomorrow, maybe?”
“Will you at least give me a read on if you’re leaning yes or leaning no?” Donna presses, narrowing her eyes at him thoughtfully.
“What’re you doing, trying to whip votes?” he teases her, before relenting. “Long term I’m a solid yes, assuming you are, too. But on timing the only thing I can offer right now is a buzzing noise that sounds suspiciously like my alarm clock going off where I can’t reach it.”
“Fair enough,” she laughs. “But I’m still not letting you nap.”Josh and Donna arrive in Hawaii, but time window considerations won’t be so easily forgotten. Follows on from The Don’t List.

Summary
“You always stay in this hotel, in this room, when you’re here, if it’s free. Which it usually is.” Josh glanced down at his shoes, ears flushed a dull pink, and Sam’s heart stuttered in his chest like he was some high schooler with a crush. Oh. God, maybe he really had been an idiot. 23 years of knowing Josh, of not understanding why exactly he would drop anything for Josh, why he would do anything he asked, why Josh was the only person he really understood completely, really trusted, even when he was being a little bit of an idiot. 23 years it had stared him right in the face and somehow, he’d just never really realized. Or maybe he had and just didn’t want to think about it. The realization should have sent him hurtling into a panic, perhaps, spiraling into oblivion, but instead, it just made everything click, slot into place. Because of course, he loved Josh.
“What were you going to do if it wasn’t me?”
“Probably just… run away. I don’t know, I didn’t really think that far ahead.”

After Josh goes on his week long vacation, he goes to tell Sam what he should have the last time he brought him to DC

Summary
“The size of the question is too big, is the thing,” he says, managing not to stumble over his words this time, and that’s slightly better, closer to how he imagined this going. “And I don’t want to get it wrong.”
“It’s not an SAT question, Josh. There isn’t a magical right answer.”
“I know that. But still, you have to admit, it’s a big question: what we want from each other.”
“It is,” she agrees hesitantly. She starts to move, pauses, then seems to think better of it and follows through with the action of stowing her paperback in the seatback pocket in front of her, no longer bookmarked. Another good sign, he hopes.
“So I figured,” Josh says once Donna settles back in her seat and turns her gaze to him again, “that maybe I’ve got to come at this from the other side. Figure out what I don’t want. Cut the question down to size a bit.”Donna gave them a four week window to figure out what they want from each other, but Josh is more focused on all the things he doesn’t want. One airplane flight and one long conversation that was a long time coming, as Josh and Donna figure out what it is they want from each other. Set immediately after 7.19: Transition.

Summary
“Do you want to go away with me for a week?”
She stares at him dumbfounded. “You’re serious.”
“My bag is in my car downstairs if you want me to show you how serious I am.”
Her mouth opens and closes like a fish and she has no idea what to say to this because out of all the things she could have expected Josh Lyman to say to her on a Wednesday at eight thirty seven in the evening, leaving the White House on no notice for a week was certainly not on the list.

Summary
So why do you come here, night after night, looking for someone to warm your body, mar your flesh, and boil your blood? Should it not have been an honor only given to me?
Zenos glared again at the marks on Hemlock’s collar — the filthy stains.
It should have only been me. You should have only been mine.

Summary
Now he thinks of the kids they’ve seen on this trip, chubby babies in unbelievably tiny hats and toddlers running through the tide on unsteady legs. They were cute, sure, but didn’t inspire any real paternal instinct in him. But then he conjures up images of babies with blonde hair and dimples, with his complexion and Donna’s eyes, and something catches in his chest. If he’s being honest, he’s imagined those babies for years.
Josh and Donna and their babies at the beach.
