A/N: Short chapter, I was going to write more but I ended up spending 2 hours at the gym thanks to my dancing class that I totally sucked at. O_o I cannot shake my butt like a Latina women, but I intend to learn! :D

As always thank you to my two favorite readers who always reveiw!


"Charon!" Aida squealed when she caught sight of the ghoul in the door way. "And Fawkes! I just sent a letter out for you two. What are you doing here?"

"Trading" Charon held up the bag full of food.

"Well come in!" she smiled pushing Burke out of the way. "You can join us for dinner." Charon stepped through the door eyeing Burke as he followed behind Aida. "How did you know I was here?"

"Bessie told us." Charon sat down where Aida motioned.

"I'm surprised you're here with Fawkes." She smiled grabbing two plates from the cupboard. "I thought you preferred to travel alone."

He let out a grunt looking over at the mutant, Aida laughed shaking her head as she grabbed them both a beer from the fridge not positive if Fawkes could even drink. She set the beers down in front of them before she sat down across from Charon looking over at Burke who stood in front of the stove.

"I need your help, both of you." Aida leaned forward. "Tenpenny is coming after me, and I'm sure he'll be after Burke soon." Charon rolled his eyes. "I'm asking for your help Charon." She frowned grabbing his hand.

He groaned letting go of her hand. "Fine Aida, I will help you."

"As will I." Fawkes placed his huge hand over hers.

Aida smiled leaning forward and kissing Charon's forehead, then pushing out of her chair and kissing the top of Fawkes' head. "I knew you guys would help."

"What exactly are we helping with?" Charon turned around so he could see Aida.

"We need to kill Alistair." Burke glanced over his shoulder as Aida gave him a plate for the steaks.

"Sound simple enough." Charon let out a snort.


Aida stepped out onto the balcony after Charon and Fawkes had left, she smiled walking over to where Burke was leaning on the railing and looking up at moon. She ran her hand up his back drawing his attention to her. "Two down, two to go." She smiled pulling his arm from the railing so she could slip in front of him.

He pulled her hair away from her neck softly kissing it, he smiled when he felt the goosebumps against his lips. He ran his fingers lightly across her stomach causing her to twist her hips. "Are you ticklish?" he whispered against her neck.

"No" Aida lied pulling his hands away from her stomach and turning around. "Why are you?" she smiled squeezing his sides.

"Not at all." He smirked grabbing her wrists and forcing her arms behind her back. "Aida" he whispered, he caught her lips when she turned to look up at him releasing her arms and wrapping his around her waist pulling her closer to him. Aida's arms immediately wrapped around his neck pulling him deeper into the kiss as she parted her lips and sought out his tongue, she let out a moan when his tongue found hers and his hands grabbed the back of her thighs pulling her up onto the railing. She wrapped her legs tightly around him trying to ignore the fact she was sitting on a railing that could crumble at any minute sending them both backwards to their death. Burke slid her closer to him letting out a groan when she rolled her hips into his, he grabbed her butt as he stepped away from the railing. Aida bit at his neck as he carried her towards the bed slowly lying her down onto the mattress the bed groaning at their weight.

She tugged his shirt out of his pants and began to fumble with the buttons trying to undo them while he tried to busy her with his kiss. She groaned pulling the shirt until the buttons broke and Aida felt his skin on her hands.

"Aida are you intent on destroying all my things?" he smiled as she pulled the shirt off his arms and tossed it to the floor.

"Just the things that get in my way." She smiled tugging at his belt.

"I need this so why don't I undo it." He chuckled standing up and pulling the belt. Aida crawled backwards further up the bed falling back on the pillow and pulling her tank top off, throwing it at Burke. He caught it dropping it next to his shirt on the floor, he smiled his crooked smile as he crawled up the bed towards her. She closed her legs peeking over her knees at him as he raised an eyebrow. "Aida stop teasing." He smiled trying to push her legs apart, she laughed clamping them shut again. "Fine" he slid off the bed walking towards the bathroom.

"Where are you going?" Aida called as she sat up.

"I'm taking a shower, if you're done with your teasing you're more than welcome to join me." He smiled to himself as he stepped into the bathroom.

Aida leaned off the bed watching as he turned the shower on and kicked his pants off. She bite her lip as his boxers fell to the ground giving her a quick view of his backside before he stepped into the shower. "No Aida" she whispered to herself lying back down on the bed. "You're just going to stay here, make him come to you." She fumbled with the bow on the front of her bra chewing on her lip. She groaned sliding out of the bed and walking towards the bathroom.

Burke opened the shower door peeking out of it as he wiped the water from his face. "Decided to join me?" he smiled watching as she pulled her shorts down and kicked them out of the bathroom.

She pushed the shower door shut forcing Burke back into the shower. "No peaking"

"Aida you're about to get in the shower"

"Well" she shrugged reaching back for the clasp of her bra. "I don't want you to watch me strip down."

"When did you become shy?" He smiled rinsing the soap from his body.

"Just now." She frowned tossing her bra onto the sink and pulling her panties down, tossing them with his in the corner. She dug in his pants pocket finding a book of matches. She lit the candle sitting on the counter next to her bra.

"What the hell?" Burke laughed as the room went dark, he opened the shower door again. Aida pushed him back in as she hurried into the shower and shut the door. "Why did you turn the lights off?"

She shrugged folding her arms over her chest. "I'm feeling a little…"

"Shy?" he smiled unfolding her arms and pulling her against his chest.

"Exactly"
