Two Days Later

Mitchie

"Come on Alex!" I said as I knocked on the bathroom door. Alex had been getting ready for the past thirty minutes. "I told you to dress comfortably."

"I'm going, I'm going!" she said as I heard her fidgeting with some of the stuff in the bathroom.

I began to pace outside the bathroom door waiting for her to hopefully finish up. I was dressed in a red plaid flannel and jean shorts. I had debated wearing something underneath the flannel but I decided to just go with a bra instead. I had my flannel buttoned up to the third to last button, enough to give Alex a clear view at my cleavage.

"How do I look?" she said as she finally opened the bathroom door.

"Perfect." I said with a smile that covered my whole face. She looked extremely cute in one of my red v-necks paired with her classic denim shorts.

"You said dress comfortably." She laughed. "Where are we going anyway?"

"We're going to the rodeo." I said with a chuckle. "I know this probably isn't exactly the best way to spend our anniversary but your mom said you used to go every year and I didn't want to take that from you." I admitted.

"Aw, Mitchie." She said as she brought her hands around my neck. "That's sweet of you." She kissed my cheek.

"I figured we'd have a good time at the carnival there, right?" I asked nervously hoping I didn't screw things up. "Then afterwards I have a surprise."

"I promise you I'll have the best time… because I'll be with you." She said with a smile. "It's a lovely idea, baby."

"Are you ready to go then?" I asked.

"Yeah but before we go can I just say that you're looking really good in that flannel." She winked as she placed her hands on the edge of the shirt and pulling me into her. "I love the view." She said as she gently kissed my lips.

"Okay, okay, let's go." I said as I grabbed the keys to my car and my purse. "We have an anniversary to celebrate!"

…

"Wow, there are a lot of people here." I said as we arrived at the carnival part of the rodeo.

"It's the rodeo baby." Alex said with a hint of excitement in her voice. "I used to come here every year with friends. Last year was the first year that I didn't come."

"What should we do first? Your choice." I said as I took her hand.

"I'll be honest, I'm a baby when it comes to rides… eventually I do them but it takes a lot of convincing." She said as she squeezed my hand. "Just a fair warning."

"Don't worry, Alex, I won't let anything happen to you." I promised her as I let go of her hand and brought my arm around her shoulder. "That one looks like a good one to start with." I said as I pointed to a ride.

"It doesn't look too terrifying." She smiled. "But we need to buy tickets first silly."

"Oh, yeah, oops." I said as I smacked my head with my free hand. "Almost forgot."

We walked around looking for the nearest ticket booth. "There." She said as she pointed to her right.

I looked at the sign, trying to decide how many to get. I wanted to spend time on a few rides but I also wanted to play a few games to win something for Alex. "Hi can I have two unlimited ride wristbands and… 50 tickets please?" I asked.

"Woah Mitchie, we don't need that many." Alex laughed.

"Well I don't want to have to keep coming and buying tickets. We'll use the wristbands for rides and the tickets for the games." I told her.

"That will be 86 dollars please." The lady in the ticket booth said. I began to reach in my purse for my wallet when I felt Alex's hand stop me.

"Let me pay half." She said with a smile.

"No." I told her kindly. "I got it."

"Please, you can't pay all of that." She said with a pout.

"Watch me." I said as I pulled out my wallet and handed the lady my credit card. I turned towards Alex as the lady did my transaction. "We're on a date which I invited you to therefore I pay and you enjoy yourself."

"Fine." She said as she rolled her eyes.

"I love you little stubborn one." I said as I grabbed her cheek and pinched it.

"I am not stubborn." She said as she crossed her hands on her chest.

"I prove my point." I winked at her.

"Here you go ma'am." The lady said as she handed me my credit card and the passes. I placed Alex's wristband on her wrist and then she placed my wristband on mine. "Let's get this night started" I smiled.

We walked over to the first ride and stood in line for a total of five minutes before we were allowed to go in. It was a simple ride that went around in circles at a speedy pace but did not go up or loop. It was the weakest ride I had ever been on but I could care less because I was with Alex.

"How was that?" I asked Alex as we exited the ride.

"Thrilling" she said with a huge grin.

"Do you want to try a better one?" I asked as I pointed to one that went in the air.

"I don't know, Mitch." She looked down.

"Come on Lex. I'm here with you." I told her as I took her hand. "Promise nothing will happen."

"Okay." She said.

As we stood in line for the next ride I could tell that Alex was getting really nervous. Her hand was getting a little sweaty and she kept looking down at the ground. "We don't have to do it if you don't want to, Lex." I told her. I wanted her to enjoy today, not be scared for her life.

"No it's fine." She said with a weak smile. " I told you i'm a baby at first but once I do it I love it!"

"What can I do to get you to not be afraid?" I asked her as we neared the beginning of the line.

"Kiss me." She smiled.

"Is that what your friends did?" I asked as I jokingly raised my eyebrow.

"Yes, I'd make them all make out with me" she laughed. "No, they'd bitch at me until finally I'd give in. But from you, all I need is a kiss." She winked.

"You're so needy." I said as I leaned in and brought our lips together. "You feel better?"

"Much." She said with a wide smile. "But I'm still scared."

"Oh come on baby! It's not that bad. I'll hold your hand the entire time." I said as I turned my head to the side.

"I'm just kidding." She said with a laugh. "I'm good."

"Tickets please?" a young man said as he held the gate open.

We showed him the wristbands and he let us through. Alex sat in the seat beside me and we locked the bar. She looked me with a worried smile so I smiled and grabbed her hand. "Ready?" I mouthed. She nodded as we began to move. This ride was far more exciting than the first. First we slowly rose into the air and then suddenly began spinning. The ride went right and left before making it back to the middle again. I watched Alex the entire time as she screamed with her eyes shut tightly. Near the end of the ride she finally opened her eyes and leaned over towards me. I leaned towards her and brought our lips together for a quick kiss. Before we knew it we were back down on the ground.

"That was awesome!" she said with a huge smile. "I liked this one."

"I told you they aren't that bad." I said as I wrapped my arms around her from behind. "Come on, let's go do a few more." I told her before I kissed her cheek.

Alex and I spent about an hour on other rides. She had completely forgotten about her fears and she was letting go in all of them. It made me proud to see her get into it.

"Dinner?" I asked as we finished our last ride.

"Yeah, I'm pretty hungry." She said as she placed her hand on her stomach.

"Well I heard rodeo food is quite delicious. What do you suggest?" I asked her.

"Sausage on a stick." She said quickly. "Best thing they have here, I promise."

"Okay, I'll go stand in line and get some while you find us a table. Deal?" I asked her.

"Deal." She said with a quick smile. She kissed my cheek before heading over to the tables.

Alex

I walked over to the long arrangement of tables, looking for an empty one where Mitchie and I could eat. Just as I made my way over, a couple with two children stood up and walked away.

"Jackpot!" I said to myself. I walked over and sat down as I waited for Mitchie to get back. I had a clear view of her in the line.

"Alex?" I heard a voice say. I looked around trying to figure out who was calling my name. "Alex Russo?"

I couldn't find a familiar face so I figured it might be a fan, but no one around me was talking. Suddenly I saw a very familiar face appear from the crowd. "Oh. Nick. Hi." I said as looked at my ex boyfriend.

"What are you doing here?" he asked with his hands to the side.

"I'm on a date with Mitchie." I told him.

"Oh that's your girlfriend, right?" he asked as he inched closer.

"Fiancé." I corrected him.

"You know I thought I heard someone say you were engaged." He said as he sat down across from me.

"I am indeed." I said awkwardly. He looked at me for a second then spoke again.

"How long have you two been together?" he asked.

"A year today." I told him. I really wasn't interested in talking to him, but I wasn't going to be rude.

"Oh, uh, congrats I guess." He said as he ran his hand through his hair. I used to find that so attractive but I was completely indifferent now.

"Thanks." I said. I looked over at Mitchie who was still waiting in line for food. She had no idea that Nick was sitting in front of me and I wish she'd hurry up and come back.

"So did she propose?" Nick asked as he matched my gaze.

"No, I did." I told him. "I proposed on our six month anniversary and now we live together here in Austin. We're in college here. Anything else you want to know?" I asked him.

"Uh, that's cool." He said as he shrugged. "Where do y'all go?"

"UT" I said to him.

"One sausage on a stick for my lady." Mitchie said as she placed my food plate in front of me. She kissed me on the cheek and sat down beside me. "Uh… hi." She said awkwardly as she noticed Nick sitting across from us.

"Hey." He said as he looked at his hands.

She looked at me and raised an eyebrow, clearly confused as to what he was doing there. "Nick, this is my fiancé Mitchie. Mitch, this is Nick… my ex." I introduced them.

"Nice to formally meet you." Nick said as he stuck out his hand.

"Wish I could say the same to you." Mitchie said as she looked at his hand then back at her plate.

Nick pulled back his hand and placed it under the table. I looked at Mitchie and she just shrugged. I could tell she was jealous, but she had nothing to be jealous about.

'That line was so long!" Mitchie said, ignoring that Nick was still there.

"It didn't seem that bad, they're usually longer." I told her. "One time I waited 30 minutes for cotton candy. Ugh!"

"I remember that." Nick laughed. "You got so pissed!"

"Yeah." I said as I looked at Mitchie. If she wasn't jealous before she was definitely jealous now.

"You know what I was thinking about while I was in line?" Mitchie said. She leaned over and began to whisper in my ear. "How hard I'm going to fuck you tonight. I'll have you yelling my name all… night…. long." She said and I began to blush. She placed a gentle kiss on my earlobe and I felt a rush of pleasure take over my body.

"I-I can't wait." I said as I regained consciousness. Mitchie moved her face closer to mine and placed her finger underneath my chin, gently turning my face to face her. She closed the space between our lips and I smiled into the kiss.

"I love you." She said as she pulled back.

"I love you too." I said as I stole a quick kiss.

"So the two of you are at UT?" Nick asked in an attempt to ignore what just happened and I nodded. I had completely forgotten he was still there. "That's cool. Heard you got an album out now?"

"I do." I told him.

"Who would have thought you'd be famous." He said with a smile.

"Don't you have somewhere to be?" Mitchie asked him as she ate her sausage.

Nick ignored Mitchie's question and looked at me. "Feel different now that a lot of people know who you are?" he asked.

"No, not really." I answered.

He nodded, searching for something else to say. Mitchie's hand grazed her cup and it tiped over, spilling towards Nick. "Oh! Oops." She said. I tried to hold in my laughter.

"That was rude." He said as he rolled his eyes. "Sorry but what did I do to you? Geez Alex, you have a bitchy girlfriend."

"Fuck you. You broke Alex's heart and that's enough for me not to like you." She said.

"Look Nick… Mitchie and I are trying to spend some time together alone." I told him. "It was good seeing you but you should go. And don't call my girlfriend a bitch… she's got more balls than you ever will."

"Whatever suits you." He said as he got up. "Goodbye."

"He's irritating." Mitchie said as she finished her sausage.

"Sorry about that. He kind of just sat here and tried to have a conversation." I told her honestly.

"He annoys me." She laughed.

"That makes two of us." I smiled. "Was it just me or did someone seem a little jealous?" I asked sarcastically.

"I have no idea what you're talking about." She smiled. "Okay… maybe a little." She said as she pinched her fingers.

"At least you made him go away." I said with a sigh of relief.

"You done? I kind of want to do a few games before we head to our next destination." Mitchie said as she grabbed our plates. She threw them away and we walked to find a game for her to do.

"Let's do this one!" Mitchie said as she stood in front of a basketball one. "What do you want?" she asked pointing to the different large stuffed animals.

"I like that dolphin." I smiled.

"Dolphin it is!" she said as she pulled out her tickets. "How many tickets for this game sir?" she asked the man.

"5 tickets for one try and 10 for 2." He said as he held out the basketball for her.

"I'll take 2 tries please." She handed him the ten tickets and grabbed the ball.

She positioned herself behind the white line and bounced the ball before shooting it. I had never seen her play basketball before but her free throws weren't that bad. The ball circled the rim but didn't go in. "Damn" she said.

"You still have one more try Mitch." I reminded her.

She grabbed the ball and positioned herself again. She bounced the ball twice and shot it. The ball went straight into the net and Mitchie jumped up and down with joy. "I'll take the dolphin, please!"

The man handed Mitchie her well deserved dolphin. She walked over to me and held it out for me to take it. "For you, beautiful." She smiled.

"Aw shucks. Thank you baby." I said as I kissed her cheek.

We went to three more game stations where Mitchie managed to win three more stuffed animals. She won me a giant banana, a large ladybug pillow pet and a giant soccer ball for Braison. My girlfriend is a beast.

"They can ride in the back." Mitchie said as she unlocked her car. We placed the stuffed animals in the back seat and climbed into the car.

"Where to miss?" I asked her.

"To the stars." She smiled.

"No, seriously Mitch, where to?" I asked her anxiously.

"I'm sorry ma'am, I'm not allowed to disclose that information. You're going to need to be patient."

"Oh really?" I said as I raised an eyebrow. "I'll remember that next time you try and get into my pants, ma'am." I winked.

"Oh hush up. You'll see where I'm taking you in… fifteen minutes." She said as she calculated the time in her head.

"This better be good Torres!" I said jokinly. "I've got other plans to tend to."

"Oh really?" she asked as she crossed her arms. "Such as?"

"Like fucking my girlfriend!" I said with a wink.

"Be patient." She said. "You'll get some." She winked back.

"I love you so much." I said with a huge grin. "Happy one year Mitchie."

"Happy anniversary my sweet lady." She smiled.

For those who don't know the Austin Rodeo is usually held in march (Demi's playing it on Tuesday) but I had the idea in my head and let's just pretend it's in October :P

The night is still young for these two, I wanted to stop here for now but the next chapter will continue their anniversary. I promise :) Where do you think Mitchie will take Alex next? *Hint, they've gone there before... ;)

Please review guys, let me know your thoughts :)
