Anastasia's POV:

Mia called a few days ago and talked us into playing hooky this Friday. It's the most beautiful day of the year so Christian and I can't complain. It's not like I'll get in too much trouble seeing as Christian owns the place. I plan on getting some work done this weekend to make up for it though. She refused to tell us why she wanted to play hooky, just that we should meet at Escala at eleven. Christian and I were more than happy to sleep in this morning, and Gail had breakfast ready on the counter when we woke up. They should be here in about half an hour, so we shower together before getting dressed. I check my phone, and I have two texts from Kate.

*Make sure you and Christian wear matching outfits or some sort of couples costume. -Mia*

*What the fuck is Mia planning?*

Seeing as they'll be here any minute, I decide not to respond. I go into our closet and begin to search for similar outfits. I completely pass over my graphic tees because I highly doubt that Christian owns any. The only time I've seen him wear a tee-shirt, it's been white. I have no idea what we should wear If only Mia would tell us what we're doing.

"Christian," I call, and he enters the closet with a towel wrapped around his waist. "Do you have any idea what your sister is up to?"

"No idea, why?"

"Kate sent a text saying Mia wants us to wear matching outfits or a couples costume."

"Is that a joke?" He asks dumbfounded.

"No, Kate is just as confused as we are."

"Well, the majority of my closet is suits."

"Darn I just threw my last suit out," I reply mocking him and he laughs.

"Jeans for me I guess. You can wear jeans or shorts since it's beautiful out today."

"How about this you go through my clothes, and I go through yours if we see anything similar to what we own we pull it out."

"Good thinking. Best outfit wins." We immediately start combing through the closet. I've never actually been through his part of the closet, so I have no idea where anything is. I open the first drawer and see that it's full of underwear. He mostly wears black or white Calvin Klein boxer briefs, but there is neon yellow poking out from the underneath all his underwear. I hold them up in my hands and start to giggle.

"Christian? Do you wear these often." I turn around to see him blushing.

"Elliot bought them for me. I've never actually worn them."

"You could stop traffic with these bad boys." He grabs them from me, and I assume he's going to throw them away, but he puts them on and lets the towel fall to the floor. "You look ridiculous in those."

"How dare you!" He fakes being offended. "I think they look spectacular" He walks up and down the room like he's on a runway. I left my camera on the shelf where my tee shirts are so slyly I back up, turn it on and hit play. This is too good. I play a particularly dancey song on my phone as Christian continues. Apparently, he's loving this just as much as I am.

"Work it," I shout and burst into another fit of giggles. I'm about to tell him to stop because everyone should be here soon when the door opens, and Kate walks through with Elliot. I'm now on the floor laughing hysterically, Christian stops, but he doesn't seem fazed.

"I know it's hard to resist, but I'm taken," Christian says making me laugh harder. Tears are falling down my face, and Kate seems too stunned to speak. Elliot claps and Christian bows.

"I thought you threw those out."

"Throw them out? And deprive you all of the glorious sight that is me in these?" Kate just grabs Elliot's hand and walks out the door. Christian then walks over to me and helps me up. It takes a minute before I've calmed down enough to speak.

"That was priceless Christian."

"Thank you. These are more comfortable than I thought. I think I'm going to wear them today."

"Be my guest." Christian pulls on a pair of jeans and I spot a familiar shirt. I grab a Mariners baseball tee that is almost identical to one I own. I throw it to Christian and grab mine. I pull on a pair of jeans similar to the colour of Christians and my grey low-top converse. This outfit will work with almost anything we do today. Comfortable and casual my two favourite things. Christian throws on his high tops, and we head into the living room where everyone else seems to have gathered.

"Awe you two bought matching shirts! Did you go to a game together?"

"No, we bought them separately." Christian smiles before embracing his sister.

"I liked the neon boxer briefs better," Elliot says winking at me. Everyone snickers so I assume he's filled people in.

"I wish I could have seen it," Grace says with the biggest smile on her face.

"I got it on film. I'll show you." I smile back at her, Christian turns around lightning fast and stares me down. I bite my lip to stifle a giggle, which makes him laugh.

"Oh, my darling you're not going to get away with it that easy." His smile changes and I know exactly what he's thinking. I wink, and he changes the conversation. "So why have you asked us to ditch work? Did you do enough of that in high school." Mia frowns but manages to look stunning anyways. She and Kate just have this effortless beauty to them.

"I'm just going to pretend I didn't hear that," Carrick says before Mia answers.

"I've set up a scavenger hunt for you all. The end point and starting point will be here." She hands each couple an envelope. "Don't open it until I say so. The rules are simple the first couple to complete all the tasks wins a couples spa weekend."

"Why did you do all this Mia?" Kate asks confused.

"Well I won the spa weekend, and it's a couples resort. I'm single, and I couldn't pick who to give them to. Plus this is way more fun." Everyone laughs and I start bouncing up and down like an idiot. I'm not a big spa person, but I've always loved to win. "On the count of three open your envelope. One, Two, Three." Christian rips it open, and I read over it with him.

The first clue is at a place where both the Canadian and American national anthem can be heard.

I think about it confused for a moment before it hits me, Safeco Field.

"Christian, I got it!." I shout excited, and we run for the door the elevator opens, and we step inside as the doors are closing Grace and Carrick run into the foyer, but are too late.

"So where are we going?"

"Safeco Field. I'm assuming The Mitt sculpture."

"That makes sense a place that stands out since the place is huge."

"Should we let Taylor know?"

"You're with me, so I think it's fine. We don't need him to waste his day on this as well." Once we've made it to the parking garage, I realise I don't have my keys. "Don't worry I've got mine." His clicks the button and the R8's lights flash.

"I thought we weren't allowed," I say matter-of-factly.

"I think today we can break the rule. It's nice, and I don't often get to put the roof down."

"I'm not complaining." I sit in the passenger's seat while Christian walks around the other side. Oh, today is going to be a lot of fun. We zoom through Seattle in the R8 while playing Boom Clap by Charli XCX. There's a lot of foot traffic near the stadium but were able to pull up in front of The Mitt. I jump out and spot three neon yellow envelopes I grab one and run back to the car. Christian pulls away as I open it up. I turn down the music and read it to him.

"You can find many stores on Pine Street here's a list of things you might need on your spa weekend. So we have to go to Pacific Place."

"Alright, what's on the list?"

"We each have one of our own, so we have to split up."

"I don't like it."

"Christian we are going to be in a mall. I have a cellphone you can call me if you're worried."

"Fine," He says reluctantly. We make good time, and Christian pulls up to the valet. I hand him his list and look through mine. We make a plan to meet at the valet in thirty minutes. If either of us is going to be late, we have to call. He goes to one side of the mall, and I go to the other. I have to buy Christian an outfit for a nice dinner out. Fuck I have no idea what size he is. I call Taylor, and he checks sizes for me. I thank him and run into true religion, I ignore the store greeter and run right to the jeans. I find a nice faded pair in his size and run to the cash. I notice a tight fitted burgundy long sleeve shirt and grab that too. I use my credit card, and while she's putting the clothes in the bag, I read the next task. The spa has a world-class gym so make sure to pick up some workout gear for yourself. I have an abundance of workout gear, but I guess I could always use some more. I read the list more carefully so I can manage my time better. I need to get a suitcase, so I can pick up a gym bag at Lululemon. Actually, it's perfect because mine broke a few weeks back. Thankfully Lululemon is only a few stores down from true religion. I grab leggings, a tank top and a workout bag that is much nicer than my old one.

Two things on the list and two more to go. Make sure to fuel up for the day with your choice of coffee don't forget to pick up one for your partner. I head to Starbucks and grab a venti cool lime refresher for me and an iced coffee for Christian. The last task makes me think for a while.

To find your next clue, you'll need to find the story about Ponyboy.

Ponyboy, why does that sound so familiar. The Outsiders how could I be so silly. I head to Barnes and Noble. I find it in teen fiction and flip through the pages until I find the envelope in the middle of the book. It doesn't specify if I have to buy to book, so I do just in case. I lost my copy in the fire, so I need it anyway. I pay with my credit card again and get my ass back to valet. Christian arrives just after I do and I open the clue and read it to him.

"This building is very high and it one of the wonders in Seattle. Go to the top and take a picture with your beloved."

"So we have to take a picture from the observation deck of The Space Needle?"

"That's the only thing I can think of. Here is coffee for you by the way."

"Thanks, what did you get?"

"A cool lime refresher." He grabs my drink from my hand and takes a sip.

"Oh my god, that is foul." I take it back and roll my eyes.

"Well, it's my drink so it shouldn't be a problem for you." He laughs and hugs me before taking his coffee. Since it's so lovely, The Space Needle might be busy with tourists. I'm actually really excited because I've never been up there. I was too afraid of heights as a kid to ever do it, and recently I just haven't had the time. I'm practically bouncing up and down as we try and find a parking spot. I know that Christian keeps glancing at me with a smirk on his face, but I couldn't care less. We finally see a space and I hop out of the car.

"I take it you like the space needle?"

"I've never been."

"Really? You've lived here for so long."

"Well, I was scared of heights as a kid."

"That's actually adorable. It's beautiful." Christian is able to use his charm to get us in quickly. We step into the elevator, and I have a massive grin on my face as the doors close. I stand right in front of the window as it starts to rise. Slowly Seattle is becoming smaller and smaller. I've never seen anything so beautiful. The sun is shining and reflecting off the buildings making them shimmer, I'm completely awestruck. The observation deck is even more beautiful. You can walk around in a full circle seeing everything from the waterfront to the mountains. I'm in a complete daze when Christian comes over to me with the envelope.

"We should probably get going."

"I know, but we'll come back right?"

"I'll rent it out for dinner one night." He says with a smile. Wow, he's an over the top bastard.

"Or you know to come back to the observation deck," I reply, and he laughs.

"I have more than enough to rent this place out for you Ana."

"I know, but still," I say not having a better response. I pull out my phone, and we pose for a picture. I kiss his cheek and take a look. It's a great picture.

"What's that?" He says pointing to my Instagram.

"Do you not know about Instagram?"

"Ohh I've heard of it. I don't think it's a great idea to post that."

"Christian I've posted a dozen photos my account is private."

"Alright."

Pike place market was the last clue. We were able to do everything quickly and are the first to make them back to Escala. Mia is sitting on the couch with Gail watching TV. She squeals and runs over to us.

"Congrats!" She says with a smile.

"Thank you so much for doing this Mia. I had the best time with Christian." Halfway through thanking her Grace and Carrick enter laughing.

"I take it you had as much fun as we did?"

"It was amazing. Mia, you are truly wonderful." Grace and Carrick wrap Mia in a huge bear hug.

"Before I can officially declare you winners you have to check the things you bought. I know Ana took a picture at the space needle. I saw it on Instagram. How about you Mom?" Grace pulls out her phone and shows Mia her new background. "Alright, let's go to the couch." We bring our bags, and she looks through mine first.

"Outfit for Christian. I approve big time. You didn't need to buy the outsiders, but it's a great book. Keychains with your names on them, matching hats, and tea. You did great Ana."

"Do you really have to go through the stuff you made us buy?"

"Of course." Everything seems normal with the stuff Christian bought until she pulls out lingerie. My face immediately goes red. What the fuck. I look over at The Grey's who are giggling like school girls.

"Christian you only needed to buy one."

"Yes, but all of those would look great on Anastasia." I bury my face in a pillow making everyone laugh. This is a nightmare, but I couldn't be happier. They move on to Grace and Carrick. It's not until Mia pulls out a satin babydoll does my blush go away. Clearly, we both had the same lists. We have the best time laughing and drinking afterwards, and it's not until an hour later do Kate and Elliott make it back. Apparently, they got lost then ran out of gas, which I find funnier than I should. All in all, today was a wonderful day. I'm happy just standing beside my fiance and his family as we have dinner and share a wonderful night together.
