Robbie Shapiro smiled happily waking up this morning. This was actually his favorite time of the day. don't get him wrong. He enjoyed allot of this day, but this moment was his favorite part of the day. That specific moment when the clock struck 6:37 in the morning. And it was because of where he had been spending the last week of his life.

From the moment he and his beloved go the 'ok' from Doctor Reynolds, him and Tori have spent as much time as they could together. Because for the last week they had been able to share a bed, be in a dorm and live together, and be at a school where neither of them had any of their past problems to deal with. None of them had to worry about their former friends from Hollywood Arts, Robbie and his sister didn't have to deal with their parents anymore, and Tori hadn't had another visit from her imaginary friends. The likeness hallucinations of Jade, Cat, or Rex, or even him haven't resurfaced. It just been the two of them living together in a situation where they finally felt safe and secured.

Tori and him have been living in her and Quinn's old dorm. As soon as the doctor gave Robbie and Tori the 'okay' to live together, it was pretty much guaranteed they would find a way to live together. Quinn actually decided it would be best to move back in with Lola and Zoey. Since they spent much of last year together, going back to that situation wasn't that much of an issue to deal with.

Of course Robbie and Sarah had to get a number of new clothes. Neither of them wanted the chance to run into their parents back in Los Angeles to get their belongings. To they quickly remedied that by going to the store and picking up a brand new wardrobe. Tori actually loved doing that too. Not only because it spent time actually shopping for clothes, but it got Tori to choose the best clothes that would best suit her boyfriend. Tori made sure that she helped buy clothes that would make Robbie Shapiro look incredibly hot and make any girl jealous of her that she got to walk home with this man and that no one would be able to get their hands of him.

Robbie couldn't help but smile at the way Tori became very protective of him. Yeah, they had been protective of each other before. Especially since Yerba. But now? Now, they were in a situation where they could be by themselves, in another school. In a school where nobody knew their pasts and they could reinvent themselves to serve the best situation for them. So much so that Robbie Shapiro went from the resident geek at Hollywood Arts, to the hot Sophomore that was destined be in anyone's eyes as one of the best looking men in their class.

And it was all because Tori wanted other people to know how good she got it. It couldn't tear the smile from Robbie's face when he began to notice other girls checking him out. But it was extremely hard for any girl to actually spend some time with Robbie. Because Tori wouldn't actually leave his side outside of the rare moments when they were apart.

And those moments were usually when either of them had a class that the other one didn't share. So it was rare when they were apart, but whenever they were, they would usually spend the time thinking about what the other was doing at that moment.

Yeah, it was really great for Tori Vega and Robbie Shapiro. They were living the life that they wanted to reside in. They wouldn't have it any other way. Sure, Tori wouldn't mind being able to spend time with her parents, but it was only something she would easily deal with. Just by a usual call home. And the rare times when her and Robbie did decide to go back to the Vega house when they would have a dinner or even just spend the night at the house. Be in a family where the two of them, and Sarah, could relax and not worry about anything in their lives that would happen within the small confines o the Vega house.

That was just thought process Robbie Shapiro liked to have at that moment in time. When the clock struck 6:37. That, and be able to smile at the image of a sleeping Tori Vega in his arms. He can't help but gaze over her, and just take in her beauty. Even when Tori would snore slightly in her sleep, or talk quietly. It was beyond cute when that happened. Robbie would just listen to her as she spoke randomly about ideas within her slumber. Either telling him how much she loved him, or rare dreams he was able to listen about. Usually about spending some much desired naked time.

Yeah, life for her and him was great. And he wouldn't change anything about it.

It was actually at that moment when he first saw Tori turning slightly in her sleep. She soon began to flutter her eyes open, and begin the ritual of how the two of them awoke in the morning. Her chocolate orbs soon welcomed the image of her boyfriend as she awoke that morning.

"Again Robbie?"

Robbie gave her a sheepish grin, "What?"

"How often are you going to look at me when I sleep?" She asked, her tone delivering the usual quipage that she usually performs.

He shrugged, "How often are you going to look beautiful when you sleep?"

Tori smirked, "Robbie…"

He lowered his face and kissed her lips, taking in her newly awakened demeanor. "I love gazing at you, Tori. I just can't believe how good we got it. It's been so hard for us. Between my parents and your visits, we are finally in a place where we can finally be happy, Baby."

Tori smiled at his words. "Robbie, this is so good because we made it work. We pulled through, and now we're finally reaping the benefits. It's been a long time coming, and now we can finally not have to worry about anything."

He lowered his lips and started to kiss her neck, already getting a picture in his mind of what he watned to do. And of course Tori knew from the motions he was making, and the tone of his voice, and the desire in his eyes.

"Robbie… I can't…"

But rather than hear her, he continued to kiss her neck. "Robbie…"

Again, he didn't say anything.

"Please… Robbie… not now…"

He groaned and finally pulled away. "Why not?" He asked, flashing her a set of sad eyes. "Don't you want to...?"

"Of course I do." She reasoned. "I would love to make love with you. But I can't… I got go meet Mr. Dixon in an hour. I got to get ready for class."

Robbie looked at the clock, "Now? It's only 6:40. Can't you spare 20 minutes?"

Tori smiled at his attempt. No matter the scenario, Robbie Shapiro always had the look in his eyes which begged her to help him satisfy his urge for his sexual drive. A drive that was only reacting because she was the one that wanted to sleep with him the first time. A time in her life that she greatly cherished too; a moment in their shared history which help ignite the creation of their romantic relationship.

But unlike most times, this wasn't one that where she would easily accept. Tori did have to meet with Mr. Dixon. And no matter how much Robbie was asking for her to sleep with him, this wasn't a time she could easily take part in.

Even if Robbie was looking incredibly cute at that moment. He was just begging for her, and she knew it. Part of her wanted to too. But… she knew she couldn't.

Jamn her necessity to go see her Biology teacher. She had a hard time with the whole dominant and recessive genes. Which features of the human genome represented eye color, hair color… it was all so confusing. And yeah, she knew Robbie had a handle on this, but she also knew that if she spent too much time with Robbie, it would lead to matters that she really didn't need to do occupy her time.

She looked at him, and she could see his demeanor being so deflated. Being the part of Robbie Shapiro that was depressing. No matter how much time she spent with Robbie, and how much time she really fix his problems, there was always a part of him that was sad. And she couldn't do a thing to lift his spirits. Even if it was a sexual experience…

But…

He still had this sad demeanor on his face. Her heart was beginning to waver, and she wanted him to overcome these scenarios. But she knew she couldn't tackle this right now. Especially because she had to get moving.

She watched as Robbie withdrew his arms and started to swing his legs over the mattress so that he could pull himself out of his bed.

"Robbie?"

He turned back to face Tori as he pushed the sheets off of them. "Where are you going?"

Robbie sighed and glanced back at his girlfriend. "I know you don't want to have sex now. And I know you want to go meet with Mr. Dixon." He shrugged. "So, if I leave you alone, you'll get going. I'll just go grab some breakfast or something."

Her heart broke at his deflation. Robbie may of always been able to hide his feelings, and the truth from her and their former friends, but ever since Yerba, Tori has gotten to the point that she could pretty much read every emotion on his face.

"Robbie…"

He let out a sigh. "It's okay. I get it. You just don't want me right now…"

She immediately sprung out of the bed and stormed to her boyfriend. "Never think that. Never think that I don't want you. My God, Robbie. We've been together for almost two months now! Of course I want you. I just have to go meet with my teacher!"

He watched as Tori wrapped her arms around his neck. She briefly kissed his lips. "I'll tell you what. Come back tonight, and we'll do something special. But you gotta realize, that I will never want to be without you. How many times have I claimed you as mine? How many times have we made love? How many times have we've been pulled apart, and we still come back together? Allot. I'm not going anywere. Alight?" She leaned in and kissed him once more. "Do you understand that now?"

Taking her hands back, she noted the blank look on his face. Letting out a sigh, she grabbed his hand. "C'mon, Baby. I may not have enough time to have sex with you right now, but we do have time to take a shower together. Alright?"

Robbie Shapiro's smile just suddenly brightened. And rather than being led to the shower, Robbie grabbed Tori's hand tighter and pulled her to the shower instead.

The last thing that was said before the two of them crossed the room to the shower was, "We'll make Danny Tanner proud!"
