Penelope became Emma's TA and that meant that twice a week she had sot help her with the kids and their beginners' magic. That day was also the day of hers and Josie's five moths' anniversary. She wanted to do something special for Josie but had no chance to do anything since she was all day in class and then all afternoon with Emma and the kids. Penelope had no idea it was all Josie's fault. She asked Emma to keep Penelope busy until she prepares everything in her room. Emma was very glad to help and promised to keep Penelope away. She really liked the girls together and she was really surprised how Penelope stepped up and took care of Josie as a partner, as a witch and all she needed. Penelope's beauty was inside and outside and it took Josie to show her different side of the girl that sat in her class for years. Kids were bad at using magic so Penelope would stay longer. She was getting inpatient because she wanted to spend time with Josie and she felt bad for not being with her. She didn't want Josie to thing she didn't matter or something like that. When she was finally done, Penelope was in the rush to get to her room and change so she could do something with Josie and save the day. She opened the door and found the room covered in rose petals and full of candles. They were the only light in the room. Josie was in the middle of the room in a long black dress and single red rose with black top of the petals.

''You did all this?''

''Yes, happy anniversary P…''

They kissed and Penelope broke the kiss.

''Thank you baby… You look so amazing and I am a mess.''

''How about you go and take a shower. I left things for you there and then we can really start our date.''

''You picked my clothes? Hot baby!''

''I know…''

Penelope opened the bathroom and found a nice bunch of satin and lace on the shelf. It was something new, probably present from Josie that she got her, washed and hid perfectly. She really loved that girl. She showered and got dressed into what Josie left for her. It was very sexy lingerie and long black dress that looked like Josie's but was more opened in the back. Penelope put just a little makeup and she was ready to get out. When she got back into the room, Josie was on the floor with a pot where she was melting chocolate. On the plate beside it was bunch of fruit and Penelope's favorite lemonade with ginger and mint. They sat down on the floor and started enjoying their evening.

''Jojo, how did you manage to do all this?''

''It took a village, but I did it…''

''It's beautiful…Thank you…''

Josie gave her a box and Penelope noticed it was a bit heavy… She opened it and found letters. There was over seven hundred letters. Those were letters that Josie wrote to her from the moment they started dating till this day.

''Baby, what is this?''

''Letters… I wrote to you every day since we started dating… Even when we broke up… I never stopped…''

Penelope was excited for the early ones and the ones when they got back together, but she dreaded letters from the time when they were not together anymore. Josie being Josie marked all the letters and Penelope just stared at the bunch of envelopes in the box.

''Pick one…''

''I am not sure what to pick… What bunch…''

'' I know you are avoiding brake up letters.''

''Do you blame me?''

''No… I am not sure tonight is the time for them…but pick one… You have three piles, just pick…''

Josie was pretty sure what would Penelope pick. It was the middle pile…the pile when they were not together. Josie took a deep breath not knowing what is hidden in those lines her girlfriend was about to read. Penelope read the letter out loud. It was written a bit after she left Josie and it was about some party. Penelope left the party with some wolf boy and Josei felt like her heart was shattered into small pieces. She felt like she would die that night. Penelope winked at her as she was leaving and Josie knew she ended up in bed with that boy. She knew Penelope. Penelope lifted her gaze from the paper and saw Josie sitting in the corner of the room smaller than she ever remembered her.

''Jojo, please come here…''

She put the paper on the floor and opened her arms for Josie. It took Jose some time to come to Penelope but she did. Penelope held her and kissed her.

''Baby, look at me.''

Josie lifted her gaze and looked at Penelope's eyes.

''It was just…a game…''

''Game that hurt me.''

''Josei, I would just walk out of the party BESIDE those people, not with them… Every night I ended up in my own room in my own bed alone.''

''What?''

''I never slept with anyone after you. You were the last person I was with.''

''But all the stories?''

''Were just that, stories… people saw us leave at the same time and logical explanation is hookup…''

''You are saying I was crying over nothing for months?''

''I guess we both did our share of crying over nothing.''

''It's not the same.''

''It is in a way…My sex life was product of your imagination and I had to watch you actually with someone else..''

''I never stopped wanting you.''

''I know… Now I know…''

Penelope pulled Josie into hug.

''Let's leave past be past and enjoy here and now. Look at us… We are back together, we are happy, we are going strong and we are doing amazing. We are finally where we were supposed to be. I want to live this moment, not ugly and painful past.''

''Ok….''

Josie dipped the strawberry into chocolate and fed Penelope.

''That's hot.''

''Horn dog, everything is hot to you…''

''No! It is literary hot….''

''Oh, sorry…''

Penelope used magic to lower the temperature of the chocolate and Josie felt bad for burning Penelope, but it didn't stop her from making jokes.

''I'm sorry baby.''

''It's ok.''

''I am very sorry you are out of commission tonight…''

Penelope whispered at her..

''But you are not…''

''Oh…OH…''

''Aham… Late night favors are always welcomed Miss. Saltzman.''

''I'll keep that in mind Miss Park.''

''Penelope pulled out a box from under the bed and gave it to Josie. It was her present for Josie. Josie opened the box and found royal blue dress and lapis lazuli earrings and necklace with cameya that goes with it.

''It's enchanted, so you can use it as a daylight jewelry.''

''It's beautiful.''

''I got the necklace in the antique shop. I really loved it…It belonged to some vampire because when I tried to put the spell on it, it acted as it was already enchanted.''

''Thank you love. I love the present.''

''I am glad you do. Now you have dress for the school dance in a month.''

''Are you asking me to the dance P?''

''Maybe…If I don't find a date…''

''Oh, maybe I can ask MG to be my escort.''

''Since he is a Supermen now and a slut…He is the perfect escort.''

Josie threw a pillow at Penelope.

''He is our friend.''

''I didn't say anything…''

''You called him a slut.''

''He is slowly becoming one. Since he and Kaleb bonded, he is pretty popular with the ladies…''

''I didn't notice.''

''I know… You sometimes don't see an elephant in front of your eyes.''

''Not funny…''

'' Three days ago…We were having lunch all together and three gilrls gave him their number.''

''Where was I?''

Penelope couldn't believe Josie.

''Beside me! Across from him!''

''I didn't see that. I was reading your paper.''

''I can't even…''

''You know I don't care about things like that.''

''I know babe.''

She smiled at Penelope.

''You know I love you…''

''I love you too and I think that the bubble you tend to spend most of the time is very cute.''

''I am not in a bubble…''

''Yes, you are… I can almost see it baby and I don't want anyone to burst it for you.''

''It has already been busted many times.''

''But you repair it…''

''It's not easy.''

''I know… But it's cute that you just distance yourself from everything that bothers you.''

They continued eating and chatting about their relationships and planes for the near future. They agreed that the past should be laid to rest and that they should enjoy here and now they have. They spent the rest of the night in bed, making love and promises they hoped they would keep. Penelope prohibited long term planes and made Josie promise to her that they will take their time and not plan too much ahead. She wanted them to have relationship that can blossom on its own and that would help them be happy together without putting too much pressure. Josie knew Penelope loves her and that she is there for her, but she also became aware that they were just sixteen…and that there are many things ahead of them.

Josie was on her back and Penelope was taking a nap on her chest. They were warm, happy comfortable and focused on their little world in the room.

''P?''

''Yes, Josie…''

''Do you think we would have been together now if I haven't turned.?''

''Honestly?''

''Yes…''

''I don't know. I want to believe we would have found a way back. I never stopped loving you. I just hoped you would love yourself too.''

''I want to thank you for giving me a chance to love myself.''

''Don't thank me…Just live your life to the fullest.''

''I will…''

''And be this amazing… You take my breath away Jose… from the moment we met… You were so magical and amazing.''

Josie kissed the top of her head and held her tighter.

''P…''

''Yes?''

''Yes…''

''To what?''

''To the dance… I will go with you…''

''I know…''

Penelope casted a spell for the candles to stop burning and they were ready to sleep. Tomorrow was Saturday so they could sleep in and enjoy time together. Holding Penelope in her arms, Josie stopped thinking about the bad letters in the box and painful words in them. She just thought about the girl she loved and amazing things they shared. Life was finally good for her and she had it all.
