A/N: Mkay so the last chapter had a somewhat cheesy ending… sorry to burst every1's bubble but NO they didn't have sex :p so this chapter is set a couple of months after the last and basically they know everything that they knew by the season finale and everything happened the way it did on TV except for the MickBeth relationship of course… you'll basically get the rest as it goes along… and a major twist is coming up coz I had a major brainwave for the story in math… after all isn't that when all major brainwaves happen? lol

Anyway… on with the story!

P.S. Mick's still human and Josh's still alive…


Mick and Beth had been dating from some time now, a couple of months or so. Things had been going smoothly and more slowly that either would like to but neither would admit it. They'd had a LOT of heated make out sessions without going 'to third base' as some like to call it. But tonight Beth was staying at Mick's whilst Josh cleared out the last of his things from Beth's apartment.

'Oh come on!' Beth breathed with frustration. This had to be the longest day ever! She thought. One more hour until Mick was due to be home from the airport and she could leave work. One whole hour that seemed to be taking an eternity to pass.

Finally when he alarm sounded on her phone, she couldn't have gathered her things faster ' Night Mo!' she yelled, leaving without waiting for a reply.

Mick knew it was Beth before he reached the door.

'Hey,' Beth sighed smiling up at him.

'Hey,' Mick replied. Sadly today was not a day when that Beth knocked to have Mick open the door topless.

Beth stepped past him, placing her bag on his sofa, 'So how was your flight?' she asked, sitting down.

'Average. How've you been holding up without me?' Mick smirked.

'Oh shut up and get you ex-vampire ass over here!' she pulling him into a deep kiss.

Finally the kiss broke, 'Wow, I should go overseas more often.' Mick exclaimed.

'You know I was half terrified something fatal would happen to you, being human and all.'

'Something happen to me? But I'm your angel – man of steel! As if anything would happen to me!' Mick laughed, pulling her into the kitchen.

'Your ass may be made of steel but you're not anymore. Your no longer invincible…' Beth mumbled the last part.

'Okay, I may not have super vamp hearing anymore but I heard that.' Mick stated, 'here, take a seat, this'll make you feel better.'

You made dinner? It smells great!' Beth commented, back to her usual self.

'Correction: I tried to cook dinner and failed miserably, so ordered pizza instead!'

'I'm sure it wasn't that bad.'

'You didn't have to taste it!'

Beth laughed, 'any good movies?'

'Of course,' Mick answered, following her back into the living room.

After all the pizza had been eaten, Beth chose a movie for the two of them to watch.

'Not that again,' Mick moaned in complaint.

'It's okay, I don't really plan on watching,' Beth replied with a smirk.


(3 days later)

'Do you have to go back to Europe so soon?' Beth complained as her and Mick stood at Gate 2 waiting for Mick to board the plane.

'If you want this to last then yes, I know the cure is there somewhere, I just have to find it. I don't want to loose you.' Mick answered, refusing to release her from their hug.

'You won't loose me. Promise me you'll come back if you don't find it soon,' Beth pleaded looking into his eyes.

'Why? Or you'll find someone else?' Mick quipped, trying to lighten up the goodbye.

'Don't be stupid.' She stated, ' you better go. I love you.'

The shared a quick kiss. ' I love you too,' Mick said, 'stay out of trouble…'


As Beth was driving back to her apartment from the airport, her phone began to ring. Josef, she thought, what could he possibly want now?

'Hello?' Beth answered.

'Beth, are you sitting down?' Josef's unusually shaky voice asked.

'Yes, why?'

'I have something, uh, important to tell you,' there was a long silence as Beth began to grow more worried. 'Its Mick,' Beth's heart stopped, 'his plane crashed, there were no survivors.'
