Hi everybody! Thanks again SO much for the reviews
Well here's the third part, hope you all like it! (and again, I apologize for my bad english)

Disclaimer : I don't own anything.


Just when I was on the verge of giving in and going to my parents there was a knock on my door. Who the hell? I thought to myself as I got up. I peered trough the keyhole and I felt my heart skip a beat.


I opened the door.

"Hi Ranger" I said surprised. He was leaning sexy against the doorframe looking at me. "Since when do you knock?" He grinned at me.

"Sometimes I do that" he pushed himself of the doorframe, stepping inside and pulling me into an embrace. "Happy Birthday Babe!" he whispered against my neck. I pushed myself away from him.

"How do you know?" I couldn't help but smile. His wolf grin grew wider.

"I just know"

"One of those if I knew you'd had to kill me type of things?" He chuckled and said.

"Yeah Babe, something like that". He let go of me, picked up a bag from the floor and walked into my living room. Well maybe this night wasn't gonna be a total failure after all.

We sat down on my couch and he started looking for something in his bag.

"I've got something for you" he handed me a gift rapped package. WHAT? My jaw was literally on the floor. Ranger giving me a birthday present? Oh somebody better pinch me, or something 'cause I sure as hell got to be dreaming. Next thing I knew ranger pinched my thigh.

"No Babe, you're not dreaming" Oh shit did I just say that out loud? Ranger picked up on my train of thought "Yep you did" Damn ESP! He wolf grinned at me. But then my attention traveled to the present in his hand.

"That's so sweet of you, you know you really didn't have to!"

"I know, but I wanted to" he reassured and put the gift in my hand. I accepted it and stroked his cheek carefully before turning into the five year old kid again, curious as hell! I opened the rapping paper and pulled out what appeared to be a magazine. I turned it over and… holy shit! It was the first edition of the first Wonder Woman comic book. Okay I don't know much about comics but I do know that first edition copes are worth a fortune and close to impossible to get your hands on, you know another one of those if he told me he had to kill me type of things. But that wasn't what touched me the most. It was Wonder Woman. I don't know how many jokes Rangers Merry Men had made about me being Wonder Woman and Ranger being Batman. Also, she was somewhat of a personal hero for me. Wonder Woman and Scarlett O'Hara. I felt my stomach go worm. This was the perfect gift, personal and considerate. I sat stunned for a moment starring at the magazine. Ranger was completely still. Then I jumped him; giving him the biggest hug I possible could and kissed him quickly on the lips.

"It's wonderful" I looked him straight in the eyes. For a second I could se a worm look of happiness in Rangers eyes before they went back to blank. But he smiled and said.

"Glad you like it"

"I love it. Thank you" His hand stroked my cheek and continued down my throat, heading for my cleavage. I gulped and felt a shiver go down my spine. He chuckled softly and then his eyes turned sneaky.

"Well if you like this, just wait!" He returned to his bag.

"You mean there's actually more?" I asked surprised. Well let's hope it's not a CD.

"Happy Birthday" he picked up a big box and handed it to me. I smiled widely at him and opened it.

"OH MY GOD!" He had continued on the Wonder Woman theme. "A wonder woman CAKE!" My mouth was wide opened and I couldn't take my eyes of it. "It's… It's… absolutely beautiful!" Ranger actually laughed out loud this time.

"I don't know any other women who can get as exited over cake as you can"

"Oh believed me, they would if they got a cake like this!" I looked up at him and smiled.

"You're amazing, you know that?" What did I just say? There just was no stopping me today. Shit shit shit. A surprised look flashed his eyes for a second, then they turned worm.

"I'm not the amazing one here" he whispered slowly while his thumb stroked my chin. "Now go get some plates." I went over to the kitchen.

"You want a piece?"

"Sure why not" Well lightning strikes again I thought to myself. Batman actually having cake.

"You are just full of surprises aren't you? First presents than eating cake! What happened to the whole body-is-a-temple-thing?"

"Even the temple has its' days off. And about me being surprising… let me just say you have no idea" Oh boy. I chose to not answer that. I reentered the room carrying two plates and spoons. We cut the cake, but not before I had the chance to take a picture of it, I mean come on how often do you get a cake like that? We sat together on the couch, silently eating and watching TV for a while.

"How did you know I was alone?"

"What do you mean?"

"Well it's my birthday, most people don't just spend them home alone. How did you know Mary Lou cancelled on me?" I was actually curious.

"I just knew Babe" Hmpf… not the answer I was looking for.

"Oh you think you know just about eeeverything about me don't you?"

"About you? Hey, I don't think… I know. He sent me a 200-watt smile.

"Oh yeah?" I felt myself getting steamed up. Boy was I gonna prove him wrong.

"Yeah" He just kept grinning. That was it! I'm taking him down! And I mean that in a non-sexual way… not that those are bad.

"Let's see then, let's put you to the test, just how much you know about Stephanie Plum."

"Sure thing Babe, but just so you know, I am gonna winn this" his eyes were like chocolate. Oooh my.

We put our cake plates on the table and changed our position in the couch so we faced each other, both trying to give the other one their most evil Clint-Eastwood-deadly-eye-stare. I have to admit his was slightly better go figure. We both sat quiet as I figured out what questions I was going to ask. What is there really to know about me? That the entire Trenton already didn't know about that is…
