Okayy, so this is how this happened: I was getting ready to go to skool, still sick, because I had a test in my last class, but when I was about to leave, my mom, talked me into not going to all my classes, so instead of going to the four classes I had that day, I only went to two, which meant I had an extra 2 hrs before I had to leave the house. So I took my boots off and laid back on my bed and was gonna start writing for 'Can't let U Go', but nothing wanted to come out. So I started playing around with the idea of Tyler and Vikki's first solo date and started writing it out. Then, out of the blue, I started thinking about one of the other one shots I wrote and how easily I could have put Mia with Tyler instead of Reid, and 'Redemption Song' would have been something completely different. So then I started thinking about how different it would be, and changed the idea of Vikki and Tyler's date, to a date between Mia and Tyler, if I had put them together. And voila! This came to life.

I don't own the Covenant, or the song "I Knew I Loved You" by Savage Garden… I just really like it

I Knew I Loved You/Happy Anniversary

Tyler stood under the tree in the courtyard, looking impatiently at the clock by the tower. He kept looking around him, waiting for the person he was waiting for to show up. "She's late." He said under his breath, letting out a sigh of frustration. Tyler closed his eyes and linked his hands over his head. "She's always late, Ty. Why is today any different?" he asked himself in a low, slightly nervous voice. "She's late, even when I tell her a different time." Tyler told her to be ready and to meet him outside in the courtyard at 7:30, an hour before his plan for the night actually needed to happen, to account for her lateness. It was only a quarter to 8 and he was being paranoid, but it was a very special evening and it was one of the few times that Tyler went all out on a date with a girl before. He looked behind the tree at the dozen of long stemmed yellow roses he had bought for her and smiled to himself, thinking about her reaction to them and for the night he had planned for the two. Tyler was brought out of his thoughts by the vibrations coming from his pocket. He pulled out his cell phone and looked at the caller id. Once he saw who it was, he considered letting it go to voicemail, but reluctantly answered, knowing that the person wouldn't stop until they spoke to him.

"What is it, Reid?" he asked, the frustration evident in his voice. Reid let out a chuckle after hearing Tyler's voice. "She stood you up, didn't she?" he asked with pure amusement in his voice. "No, she's probably still getting ready. You and I both know she has a horrible sense of time." Reid laughed at the pitiful attempt to excuse her not being there. "She wasn't late when I dated her, Baby Boy." He pointed out. Tyler cringed at the thought of his girlfriend being with his best friend. "That was one date a year and a half ago, Reid. And she didn't even have fun." He said, knowing that he diminished Reid's mood. "True, Baby Boy, but she wasn't late. Wait a second, Riley just came in." Tyler sighed and listened to their conversation, hoping he'd hear something that would help his current situation.

"Riles, where's Mia?" Reid asked, gaining a dirty look and a punch in the shoulder from Riley. "Hello to you too, Sweetheart. My day was fine, thanks for asking." She said, walking over to Tyler's side of the room. "Baby, don't be like that." He said, pulling her back over towards him. "I was just asking cause I'm on the phone with Baby Boy." Riley took the phone from his hand and started talking to Tyler.

"Why are you talking to Reid? Shouldn't you be on your date?" Riley asked, hearing Tyler sigh. "She's not here yet." Tyler responded, his voice slightly shaky. Riley laughed when she heard that in his voice. "Don't worry, Ty. Mia's on her way. I just left her so she should be in the courtyard in a few minutes." Riley said, before the phone was taken from her hand. "There you go, Baby Boy. Now I'm gonna enjoy my alone time with my girlfriend, while you wait for yours. Have fun." Reid said. The last thing Tyler heard before the line went dead was Riley laughing in the background. He chuckled to himself, and then shuttered at the thought of what they might be doing. "I hope they don't use my bed." He said with a sigh. "They've threatened you with that too?" he heard someone say behind him, making him smile when he heard the voice.

"What took you so long?" He asked, walking over to her and pulling her into an embrace. "I was in the middle of a clothing crisis. Riley had to help me." Tyler nodded and reluctantly let her go so he could go get the flowers he placed behind the tree earlier. "These are for you." Mia's face lit up when the flowers were in his hands. "They're beautiful. Thank you so much." Tyler loved it when she was happy. The smile she got on her face was infectious and it made him happy to see her happy. "So, what do you have planned for the evening Ty?" she asked, as he took her hand and began to lead her out of the courtyard and to the front of the school. "All in due time, Mia." He said with a smile on his face. Mia laughed and gave him a kiss on the cheek. Tyler and Mia walked over to the parking lot and got in Tyler's hummer. They drove in a comfortable silence and after a few minutes, Tyler turned his car off and got out the car. "We're at the park?" Mia asked hesitantly, watching Tyler smile and take her hand to guide her down a path. Not before long, Tyler stopped, shocking Mia. "What are you doing?" she asked, a little nervously, when he went behind her to cover her eyes for the rest of the walk. "Trust me. You'll love it." Tyler said, feeling his girlfriend relax in his arms. A few minutes later, he stopped Mia from moving and leaned in behind her. "You ready?" he whispered into her ear and watched her slowly nod her head in agreement. He moved his hands from over her eyes and wrapped his arms around her. Mia opened her eyes was in awe at what she saw. The Gazebo in the park was fully decorated in lights and yellow roses. There was a table in the center of the Gazebo, set with candles and flowers and rose petals covered the floor and went down the stairs and lead the path they were on. "How did you do all this?" Mia asked when she could find her voice. "The park owners owed my mom a favor after the founder's day picnic." Tyler said leading her over to the table. He pulled out her chair so that she could sit and out of nowhere, a man came out and served them food. Mia's tray was lifted by the waiter and her favorite food was there. "How did you…" she started, but stopped when he smiled again. "Riley or my dad?" she asked folding her arms across her chest with a smile on her face. "Riley. She helped me out with some of the extra details." Tyler said and the two started eating their food.

After they finished, Tyler stood up and walked over to Mia's side of the table. "Would you care to dance?" he asked, extending his hand out for Mia to take it. "There's no music." Mia said laughing, as she took Tyler's hand and stood up. "Not yet." He said and nodded to the waiter who walked away from them to a distant tent. "What's gonna happen now?" Mia asked, as Tyler began twirling her around the Gazebo. "Just wait for it." He said, dipping Mia when they got to the middle of the Gazebo. When he lifted her up, the speakers in the Gazebo started playing a song that Mia instantly recognized. "Savage Garden's I Knew I Loved You?" she asked, watching the smile come on his face again. "I love this song." She said, looking up at him. "So I've been told." He said, kissing Mia's forehead. She leaned in closer to Tyler as the song played. They both had their eyes closed, savoring the feeling of being so close to each other.

As the song continued to play, Tyler kissed the top of Mia's head. "You do like this, right? I mean, it wasn't too over the top?" Mia giggled and looked up at him. "It's perfect. You're perfect. Thank you for doing this." Tyler leaned down to her, stopping right in front of her lips "I love you, Amelia Johnson." Mia let her lips meet his and they kissed for what seemed like an eternity. When the two finally stopped, Mia kissed the tip of Tyler's nose, watching him laugh when she did. "I love you too, Tyler Simms. Happy Anniversary." Mia replied with a smile on her face. She leaned back into his arms and they danced in complete and utter bliss.

So that's the first part… I'm making it a mini-series with different pairings with the characters from the movie and the ones I made. The next one will be Reid/Riley… And I already figured out that the last one that I do in this series will end Mia and Tyler's Date…

If you haven't, check out 'Can't Let U Go' (I just posted chapter 9… :D), or if this is the first thing of mine you've read and you're utterly confused about where these OCs (Riley, Mia, and whichever ones I put in) came from, check out 'Redemption Song' and the one shots that go with both stories (One Chance, Unapologize, Wake Up Call, and Goodbye to You)

PLZ PLZ Review and let me know what you think!!! (On everything, if you didn't already)
