Emily was now all moved in with John. She loved living with him and Penelope. Tomorrow Emily and John were leaving for their getaway to the mountains. They were spending time with Penelope. They'd been watching movies and playing games with her all day.

"Are you guys gonna bring me back anything?" Penelope asked.

"If you're a good girl for Nattie." John said.

"I will be."

"Penelope's always well behaved John." Emily said

"Yeah for us." John said. "When we're not around she's probably a little monster." He said jokingly.

"Daddy you're still." Penelope said.

"What do you want to do now?"

"I'm hungry."

"Do you want to order dinner now?"

"Yeah."

"What do you want?"

Chicken."

"Chicken it is."

The next morning Emily was packing some last minute things for the trip. She went into the bathroom and opened the medicine cabinet to get her birth control pills. She put them in her suitcase and zipped the suitcase. She zipped up her suitcase and went downstairs.

"Are you ready John?" Emily asked.

"Yeah." He said. Natalya came out of the kitchen. "You're sure this is cool Nattie?"

"Yeah." Natalya said. "TJ's with his mom."

"Penelope come here." John knelt down. Penelope went over to him. They hugged. He kissed her cheek. "Be good."

"I will."

"I love you."

"I love you too daddy."

"My turn." Emily said kneeling down. She hugged Penelope.

"Have fun."

"We will." Emily and John stood up.

"You two don't worry about a thing." Natalya said. "Go, have a great time." "I've got everything under control."

Emily and John went to a mountain resort in North Carolina. They'd just gotten to their room. It was huge. It had a fireplace, a wet bar, a king size bed and a balcony with a hot tub on it and a beautiful view of the mountains.

"This place is beautiful." Emily said.

"Yeah." "Check out that view."

"I know."

"Wanna go see some sites?"

"Yeah"

The next afternoon it was Valentine's Day. They were checking out some of the shops. They'd picked up a few things for Penelope. Emily saw a leather jacket she and checked the price.

"No way." She said.

"What?" John said going over to her.

"I like this jacket but the price they want is to much."

"How much is it?"

"Five hundred dollars."

"No problem." "Get it."

"It's to much money."

"Em, just get it."

"Sweetheart." He kissed her.

"Get it Emily, I insist."

"Ok."

Later that night they'd just gotten back from dinner. They were both a little drunk.

"Wanna try out the hot tub?" John asked.

"Yeah." "Let me change." She went to change.

John changed into his swim trunks, got a bottle of champagne and two glasses. He went outside to turn on the hot tub and got in. He poured two glasses of champagne. A few minutes later Emily came out in a black bikini.

"How's the water?" Emily asked.

"Great." Emily got in. "Here Em." He handed her some champagne.

"Thank you." They clinked their glasses together.

"Happy Valentine's Day."

"Happy Valentine's Day." They kissed and took a sip of champagne. "I'm glad we did this."

"Me to." For awhile they just enjoyed the view. They'd both finished their champagne. "Emily."

"What?" She said looking at him. He kissed her. She kissed him back. He got in front of her putting her up against the hot tub. She moaned as he rubbed her leg under the water. They kissed as he un-tied her bottoms. "Ohhh." She moaned against his lips as his hand slowly moved inside her. Ohhh, John." They kissed again. "I love you." He said. "I love you too, ohhhh." She said in a moaning voice. "More." "It's so damn hot when you say that." He said. He went faster. "John." She moaned. "I want you now." He took his hand out. She took off his trunks and put her legs around his waist. He slipped inside her and started to move. "Oh John." She moaned. "Oh Emily." He groaned. He went faster. "John, John, oh my god." They kissed. "Uhnnn, god you're so fucking sexy." He groaned. "Ohhhh, yes, yes, my god, ohhhh." She moaned giving in. "Oh Em." He groaned giving in. They kissed.

Two days later Emily had just gotten to the arena in North Dakota. As she walked up to the make-up table, she saw a bouquet of lillies with her name on the card. She picked up the card and opened it. All it said was.

Remember our first date?

She knew exactly who they were from.

Flashback

Emily was in the apartment she was living in at the time. She was waiting for Travis to pick her up. There was a knock at the door. She answered it. Travis was standing there holding lillies.

"Hi Travis." She said.

"Hi Emily." "These are for you." He said handing her the flowers.

"Thank you." "They're beautiful."

End Of Flashback

She threw the card in the trash can next to the table. Ten seconds later John came up to her.

"Hi." He said.

"Hi."

"Whose flowers are those?" He said noticing the lillies.

"I don't know." "They were here when I got here." "There's no card."
