Hey Guys, New story for ya. This one might tug on the heart strings a little. Also in futre it will elude to some 'naughtier' things, but nothing should be too explicit. Hopefully You Enjoy... ;)

Katrielle sat on her couch. The apartment was cozy, but even more so as her partner was resting his head on her lap. The weren't watching anything in particular, just shots of nature with some lovely music.

"You know, You're rather comfy Miss Layton."

She Smiled, "I thought i told you to use my name Mr Greaves."

"That you did, But It's part of being a gentleman, and I know you find it cute."

"Alright, Maybe a little." She chuckled. "But my dad doesn't call Uncle Luke and Emmy by their last names, And he follows the gentleman's code to a 'T'."

"No… But they still call him professor." He said.

Katrielle was stumped, he was right at that. He rolled over so he could look her in the eyes, and they stared at each other. "I Love being with you Katrielle,"

"Me too Ernest," She said giving him a grin. "…Although, I could really go for the sweet treat of some delicious chocolate."

Ernest laughed as he got of her Lap, she was almost salivating at the thought of chocolate. "You're Adorable Kat." He said as he kissed her on the cheek. She blushed as her 'food trance' faded, now completely focused on Ernest. The Chocolate was no longer on her mind.

"Um Ernest," She started.

"Yes?"

"We've been dating for a nearly a month now, and… I wanted to know if you would stay the night?"

Ernest's Worry turned to joy. "Of Course!"

Kat took a big sigh of relief and hugged him tightly.

His heart warmed as she clung onto him, he was still pinching himself that she loved him. "However, I didn't bring my pyjamas, so let me run and grab those."

"Alright See you soon," She said. How had they not done this sooner?

When Ernest returned they both dressed into their Pyjamas and Kat noticed he was holding something.

"What's that?"

Ernest grew defensive. "Promise you won't laugh." He said clutching whatever was in his hands.

"I Promise Ernest." She said, staying put. He then opened up to reveal a small penguin plush. Kat Smiled. Somehow he just kept getting more and more adorable, the more she got to know him. "What's his name?"

"Johnny." He said, seaming to squeeze the pinguin for support. Kat could see he was scared of being judged, but he trusted her enough to show her in the first place. She walked up to him and held him around the waist.

"I don't know how you do it, but somehow you get more adorable the more I know you." She said. He smiled, but she could tell something was burdening him. "What's the matter?"

"You could have any guy you wanted, why did you choose me? I'm just a lovestruck clumsy assistant. I don't even solve puzzles well."
"Ernest… I don't want anyone else, I love your clumsiness, and how you care for everyone in your nerdy way." She answered. As she stroked his cheek, her words seemed to rid the sadness within him. He wiped away the tears welling in his eyes and hugged her. A gentle, but desperate hug. "Oh Ernest…"

Eventually the sadness dissipated, and neither of them really knew what to do next. Well it was that way until Kat came up with an idea.

"TAG! Your It!" She said before running away.

Ernest was shocked. "Inside? Alrighty then."

He chased her around her apartment, and she giggled as he almost caught her but slid on his socks. The tagged back and forth for a while until Ernest had an idea. He made it so the couch was between the two of them, one resting a hand on each armrest.

"So how close to the dragon are you willing to come?" He provoked. Katrielle hopelessly took the bait edging forward. He continued to taunt her, edging her closer, untill she was only a cushion away. Then he pounced, tackling her onto the couch and positioning himself on top of her.

"Caught you." He said. His tone was slightly deeper. Confidant even. Kat didn't know where this side of him had come from, but she couldn't say she didn't like it.

"Isn't this the part where you're supposed to run?" She said in an equally seductive tone. They stared each other in the eyes as their hearts raced with anticipation. Finally, without thinking, Ernest closed the space between them. Again this surprised katrielle, but she was enjoying herself to much to ruin the moment. It was a long passionate kiss. One you read of in stories, although this was happening. Eventually Ernest broke off for air, leaving an equally shocked Kat laying there.

"Wow… That was…"

"Amazing." Kat said finishing his sentence. He slowly eased his way off him and they both sat up.

"Well, i think we should go to bed." Kat said noticing the later time. "We do have work tomorrow."

"That we do." he said getting up and following her to her bed.

As they laid down and pulled the cover over them, Ernest gently placed an arm over her stomach, and became the big spoon. She smiled and happily snuggled up to him. And as they drifted of to sleep, the penguin stood proudly on the desk, there was no need for him now.
