Because of You Page #4

to this hospital recently.

Christine Carroll.

She should be working this next shift.

You'll maybe find her in the cafeteria.

Thank you.

Hi, Major.

Hi, Chris.

I see I'm late. I was hoping

I could take you to lunch.

Oh.

If I'd have known,

I'd have waited for you.

Maybe we can go for a drive?

In what?

I borrowed a car from

one of the out-patients.

Oh. And you managed it?

I'm doing fine.

Oh that's wonderful.

I'm delighted to hear it.

I'd love to go for a drive with you

but I'm on duty in fifteen minutes.

Would you like to take a little

walk around the grounds?

Yeah.

You're not very observant, are you.

About what?

My dress.

It's the first time you've

seen me out of uniform.

You look like I imagined.

Why are you so serious?

I warned you I was the serious type.

Why did you leave Long Beach?

I was transferred.

- No, you weren't.

I snooped around. Finally got Captain

Breen to admit you asked to leave.

Whatever the reason,

what does it matter?

It concerns me. It matters.

Are you so sure it concerns you?

I have a feeling it does.

Are you afraid I was

falling in love with you?

Why should I be afraid?

That's what I mean.

You act like it.

Maybe I wanted to find out if

you thought enough of me to ..

Come after me.

Alright. You've found out.

I'm in love with you, Chris.

Getting to know people is one

thing. Falling in love is another.

I love you.

Why are you resisting me?

Why are you so stubborn?

What do you mean, resisting you?

You haven't given me a chance to, yet.

Because you're beautiful.

Oh Steve.

I'm not going to push you away.

Steve, please.

Have you got a match, Major?

We are going to get married aren't we?

Feeling the way we do, we'll have to.

- Don't you think we're rushing things?

You haven't told me you love me.

We haven't begun to know each other yet.

- But say it. Say it.

Like I've never loved anyone before.

Go on. Say it!

Like I've never loved anyone before.

Oh Steve, that's true.

I'll buy that.

How soon can we get married?

Oh, I don't know.

Steve.

There are some things that

you should know about me.

Let's get married soon.

Oh, I don't know.

Here you are, not even settled in a job

yet and already you want to get married.

The sooner the better.

When I make up my mind, I ..

Oh Chris, I've waited a long time

for this. Don't disappoint me.

Oh, I won't.

I won't.

Darling.

Gee, that's a pretty dress.

Oh, thank you.

How long have you known him?

- Four or five months.

From Philadelphia, you said?

- Hmm.

A nice family?

Yes. I've met his sister.

She seems to like me, too.

- Well, that's fine.

Are they going to be

understanding about your past?

They?

Your fiance, at least.
