A/N: Thanks for all the reviews! I'm updating as fast as I can because next week I'll be at my boyfriend's for a couple nights, and then I have Cheer Camp for the rest of the week. Then I have vacation for a week and a half! So I will be on a temporary break, but I promise to write in my notebook so I can update as soon as I get back! I own nothing; it all belongs to Richelle Mead! Enjoy this chapter and review!

Remi's POV

I stirred awake and felt around Adrian's bed in search of him. It was empty. I shot up and frantically looked around the room. I faintly heard toneless singing from the kitchen and I relaxed. He hadn't been abducted by Strigoi.

I slid out of his bed and stifled a groan. I was sore in places that hadn't really ever been sore before. Last night was amazing, but to say it was painless would be a lie. The pain was nothing though. I smiled as I stumbled around his room to find some of my clothes that I gave up looking for last night. I dug through my drawer, and found a bra and a pair of underwear. I pulled on a pair of grey sweatpants and a tight blue long sleeve shirt that had the word "Bitchin'" written in white across it. It was a hand-me-down from Rose; she had it when she was my age. Even though that was really only two years ago for her she grew out of it and wanted to pass it on to me—instead of the trash or some stranger who found it at Goodwill.

I padded into the bathroom and laughed as soon as I saw myself in the mirror. My hair was an epic mess, my lips were swollen, I had purplish spots along my neck, and some other places. I was happy though, very happy. I could see a lightness in my eyes that I hadn't seen for a week. A wide smile broke out and I began to blush. I had officially lost my V-Card. A girlish giggle bubbled out of me as I brushed my teeth.

I finished brushing my teeth and fixed my hair—ergo putting it into a messy ponytail and putting in a grey cotton headband. I quickly washed my face and ran onto of his room. I froze when I smelt bacon and pancakes in the air.

I walked into the kitchen to see an array of foods. Pancakes, bacons, eggs, fresh cut fruit, freshly squeezed orange, and hash browns. There was a bouquet in the center of the table.

"Adrian," I whispered so softly in awe. He spun around and grinned at me.

"Morning Beautiful," he took my face in his hands and kissed me gently. I was still dazed.

"Who are you, and what have you done to my boyfriend who couldn't cook?" I asked, amazed. Nothing was burnt and nothing had exploded. How?

"I am your boyfriend, I just learned how to cook from Betty Fire-Crotch," he smirked, spinning off a Betty Crocker reference.

"How long has this been going on?" I inquired.

"August," he winked.

"And I never found out?" I was stunned; he kept it hidden from me somehow.

"Never, but I should tell you. We have a date tonight. Wear the sundress I got you," he ran his hands softly across my cheekbones.

"Where are we going?" I was getting very excited; sex had not ruined our relationship.

"It's a surprise," he grinned, "And it'll be at 4, so don't eat anything after breakfast."

"Okay, I don't think I'll need to. You cooked for 10; you seriously think I can eat it all?" I mused.

"The leftovers will be going to a very hungry Rose around lunch time. She came by earlier and asked me to ask you to see if you were up for training at Noon till 2?" he explained.

"Did she suspect anything?" I wondered.

"I was fully clothed and the bedroom door was shut. So, no, she was not the slightest suspicious," he chuckled and kissed me again.

"What time is it now?"

"Around 10:30," he informed me and led me to my seat. "Dig in, you must be ravenous." He watched me, satisfied to see the blush cross my face.

We ate talking like we normally did, which was nice. Last night didn't change anything, if it did, it only made it better. I felt more connected with him.

Betty Fire-Crotch had certainly taught Adrian well. The food was amazing. I helped Adrian clear up. He grabbed a glass and filled it up with water. He handed that to me with a pill.

"Take this, I love you so I don't want to you to have to deal with reproducing a little Adrian," he teased. I did as I was told because I didn't want a little Adrian either. I loved Adrian, but I could only handle one of him and I wasn't ready to have kids obviously.

"So do you have a stock of Morning after Pills stashed somewhere?" I joked.

"In the bottom drawer of the bathroom counter just for you," he confessed, "As soon as we found out your latex allergy I got rid of all the condoms I had and replaced them with morning after pills."

"Well, thanks," I murmured. Adrian pulled me into his arms and clung to him tightly.

"I love you," he whispered into my hair.

"I love you too," I whispered back.

2 Hours Later

"Ahhhgg," I groaned as I rolled into the fetal position. I had received a nice roundhouse kick to the chest from Rose.

"Are you sore or something? You seem to wince when you move around too much," Rose wondered and helped me up.

"No, just a little headache and dizziness is all," I lied, keeping my face calm.

"Just let me know if it gets to be too much alright," Rose lightly punched my shoulder. She actually believed my lie? Wow, I was really good at lying now.

"Will do, let's keep going," I gritted my teeth and got into my fighting stance. I had another hour and a half of training to go.

1 ½ Hours Later

You can never win a fight when fighting against Rose. Unless you were Dimitri and even that was occasional. Rose has already gone down in history as a badass. People will know who she was 100 years from now.

My kids would learn about her in their Guardian and Moroi history classes. They'll use Rose's techniques to train them. I was hoping that since she was my mentor that I would at least be half as badass.

I may have had 6 Strigoi kills already at the age of 16 but they were always generally new and untrained. Plus, I was practically broken everywhere after those kills. Rose did it with ease and grace, which I still had yet to learn.

I wiped the sweat from my forehead and my made my way over to my water bottle.

"You should stretch more often. Your muscles don't look very happy," Rose commented as she grabbed her water bottle.

They were happy last night. I thought to myself.

"Yeah, sure, I'm going to go back to Adrian's and shower for the surprise date tonight," I told her.

"Have fun, but not too much fun, okay?" she teased me as I left.

Too late for that.

4:00 AM (Human Time)

I was waiting for Adrian in his apartment. I was clean, with smooth legs, dressed up, and hair curled loosely to perfection. I wore the dress he told me too, the same one I wore in one of his Dream Walks a month ago, minus the hat. I wouldn't need that, it was still dark.

I walked around his living room in impatience. I was excited and anxious to see what he had planned for our date.

He walked into the door and let out a wolf whistle.

"Hello Beautiful," he grinned wearing khaki dress pants, a light turquoise button down, and a khaki colored tie. His hair, as always, was a deliberate mess, but I loved it.

"You don't look so bad yourself, handsome," I smiled and walked up to him. He kissed me deeply for a few seconds and then pulled away.

"Ready to go?" he wondered. I nodded eagerly. "Close your eyes, and keep them shut."

I began to protest but he silenced me with a kiss.

"Please Rem, for me," he whispered against my lips. More butterflies filled my already butterfly filled stomach.

"Okay," I sighed.

"Thank you," he grinned, "Now shut your eyes."

I did as I was told and he led me somewhere. I was glad I had mastered the art of heels as soon as my klutz phase ended otherwise I would have tripped.

About 5 minutes later he stopped me. I could feel we were outside and I heard water trickling.

"Now open them," he whispered. I opened my eyes and gasped in shock. We were in the court garden. There was a decorative table set up right next to the water fountain that was lit up. Candles ringed the whole garden. Flowers surrounded the area as well.

I slowly walked up to the table to see a salad set up.

"Adrian, this is beautiful," I was in awe and my voice sounded thick.

"Thank, only the best for my lady," he stated proudly and pulled out my chair for me. I sat down and he pushed me in.

He sat down on the chair across from me and took my hand on top of the table.

"How'd you get this all set up?" I wondered looking at my surroundings again, briefly noting places to run in case Strigoi broke into Court.

"We all know I can pull strings with the Queen, and I just recently took a job as her personal assistant. Oh, and Christian helped me," he grinned.

"Does that mean you'll be living at Lehigh with us?" I asked hopefully.

"Unfortunately no, I have to take care of some things at Court for Lissa. But, I will be down at Lehigh more often," he gave me a silver lining.

"That's amazing Adrian, I'm proud of you," I meant it too.

"Thank you, let's eat," Adrian smiled at me softly. I didn't have to be told twice. Working out for two hours had made me ravenous.

When it was time for the next course of the meal, I was highly surprised and amused to see Christian serving us.

"Thanks Christian… what dirt does Adrian have on you?" I laughed.

Christian didn't answer; he just gave me a "hush" look. I looked at what was on the plate. It was lasagna and garlic bread. My mouth watered at the smell. I loved pasta.

Christian left after he set down the plates.

I took a bite and it was amazing. I met a laughing moan as I took another bite. Adrian was grinning from ear to ear. I could feel he was proud through the bond.

"You made this?" I was happily surprised.

"Yes, and watching you eat it like that is very funny," he grinned and took a bite of his own.

"You're the man of my dreams," I stated.

"And your reality," he added cheekily.

"You bet, especially if you cook from now on. I have to seriously thank Christian for teaching you," I confessed.

"I'll thank Betty Fire-Crotch too," he chuckled.

"That was witty of you this morning."

"I know. I love you Rem."

"I love you too Adrian."

That day was one of the best of my life. My mind never went to Olivia dying or the fact that I wasn't watching over Tally and Baby Olivia. All I could think about was:

How I wanted that moment to last forever under the starlight.

How handsome he was.

How we ate Gnash covered chocolate cake as the sun rose.

How I thought nothing could harm us in our little heaven.

How he'd look at me like I was the most beautiful thing in the world

How I wouldn't feel self-conscious without my clothes on around him.

How he made me his for the second night in a row.

How I trusted him with all of my heart.

How much I loved him.
