365 days
A/N: I've been on a bit of a break for the last year. Had a lot of things going on. People have been asking me for another chapter to this, so for my first story back I decided to revisit "A Late Night Text" Hope you enjoy!
It has been one year since Lena and Amélie decided to try things again. There have been a few arguments, but the pair had been doing well and finally decided to get a place together. Lena thumbs through another real estate ad and huffs.
"What is it Lena?"
"Nothing love, just all these houses just don't feel right that are on the market right now. I have been looking for days to find the perfect one but I just can't seem to find it."
"I am sure the house that is meant to be ours will come to us chérie."
"I really hope so because I can't wait to wake up to you every day in our house." Lena smiled.
"Me either, but you know we practically live together now. I don't even know why I have an apartment anymore to be honest."
"A place to keep your stuff?"
Amélie smiles. "Pretty much."

Amélie checks her phone then sighs. "I guess I have to go on an escort mission tonight Lena. I am sorry, I know tonight is our anniversary."
Lena smiles and walks over to Amélie. "It's okay love, we can just celebrate it when you get back. I know the type of work we do doesn't really give us the option to say no or call in."
Amélie kisses Lena deeply. "I love you."
"I love you too, now go get ready before you're late!" Lena smacks Amélie's ass as she walks away.
Thirty minutes later Amélie walks out dressed in her uniform for Talon and wraps her arms around Lena from behind. "Try not to have too much fun without me, okay?"
"Wouldn't dream of it love. I'll probably just go through the other ten magazines we have and look for houses. Or I guess try the internet."
"Sounds like a plan chérie. I love you and happy anniversary Lena." She gives Lena a kiss on the cheek and hugs her tightly. "I should be back by the end of the weekend. I'll try to not be any later."
"I love you too, and happy anniversary. Please be safe love."
Amélie grabs her bag and smiles once more at Lena. "I'll see you soon." She locks the door behind her and makes her way down to the elevator. Lena spends the next few hours looking through real estate magazines and finally decides to try to use a real estate website. She searches there for about another hour before giving up again.

Amélie: I made it to the pick-up destination. Seems like an easy job so far. Just escorting some big shot. Making sure no one tries to assassinate him to his summer home.
Lena: I'm glad you made it safely love. Sounds like an easy one-two punch run. I wish you didn't have to go.
Amélie: I wish I didn't have to either. I had a whole dinner planned for us and then a movie. But when I get back, yes?
Lena: Of course, love.
Amélie: I have to put my phone on silent now, I will talk to you soon. 3
Lena: 3
She tucks her phone away and turns the TV on as well as her game console. She spends a few hours playing online until she hears a knock on her door.
Knock knock
"Coming!" 'I wonder who that can be?'
Lena opens the door and she sees Emily standing there.
"Emily, what are you doing here?"
"I was wondering if we could talk."
