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.
or: how Josh asked Donna to go to Hawai'i with him

Summary
She takes a deep breath before knocking on his door. She can do this. Knock, knock, two sharp knocks. She’s here for business. She hears his soft steps through the carpet till he stops behind the door and pauses. Saints, can he sense her through a door?
He finally opens the door. “Hi.”
She nods at him, and extends her hand holding the requisition papers for the First Army. “I nee–,” she clears her throat. “These need to be signed.” She cannot say the words I need you right now, no matter the context.

Summary
Together they make their way to Zoya's chambers, the closest private room. They walk in and as soon as Zoya closes the door behind her, Genya is on her, pulling the collar of her kefta to the side to expose an angry red mark on the side of her neck and sighs.
Zoya shakes her off and takes a step away from her friend, but says nothing. Genya simply stares pleadingly at her. “Zoya…”
“Don’t.”
“I must. It’s my job.” Zoya sighs and turns away from her friend. “You promised me this would stop.”
Zoya walks over to her drink cart and pours herself a glass of bourbon. “It did stop. For a while, it did.”

Summary
"You two know each other?"
There's something unsettling about the way Donna's looking at him. It's desperate, almost pleading, a look so rare for her that he feels the beginnings of anxiety forming in the pit of his stomach.
"We do," The other man answers, "We actually dated years ago, back when I was starting in med school. It would have been, what? A little over a decade ago?"
He feels his heart rate skyrocket as all the pieces fall into place.
Dr. Freeride.

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.
