Ruthie sat on her bed checking her clock every 5 minutes or so. She could hardly contain the smile on her face and for once was actually truly happy. Today was the day that Martin was coming home for 3 months and that was the longest time since they started dating 7 months ago. But today was more special then the other times he's come home because today was their 7 month anniversary and this time he was actually going to able to spend it with her instead of talking on the phone.

She had gone 2 months without kissing her boyfriend, hugging her boyfriend, just being able to see her boyfriend and it was killing her. She often wondered how Martin did it but just settled on the fact that he was just hiding his true feelings. It felt like time was being slow on purpose as if to torture her and make her wait even longer.

Her phone rang and she lunged at it like she was a hungry lion descending on a dead antelope. She looked at the caller I.D. not recognizing the number at first then it hit her like a ton of bricks.

"Hello?"

"Hey, where are you?"

"Upstairs, why where are you?"

"Across the street sitting in my room."

"What are you doing over there?"

"I'm unpacking and getting ready for our date tonight."

"We're going on a date?"

"Ruthie its out 7 month anniversary, did you think we were just gonna watch a movie and call it a night?"

"I don't know, why didn't you tell me we were going out?"

"Its called a surprise."

"Where are you taking me?"

"Somewhere nice, so dress nice and don't worry I already talked to your parents and they're cool with it."

"When did you do that?"

"Earlier in the week."

"You're sneaky."

"I know, now I'll be there at 7 so you have 2 hours to get ready."

"Okay."

"We have to be on time and you like to take a lot of time."

"I do not."

"I love you and I'll see you at 7."

"Love you too, bye."

Ruthie sat on her bed looking at the outfits spread across her other bed. She was thinking about which one would get the biggest reaction from Martin. She picked a sexy black dress with black flip-flops. She looked at herself in the mirror and thought she looked good. The clock struck 7 downstairs and she grabbed a sweater in case she got cold.

Martin was waiting downstairs when Ruthie made her way downstairs. Her mom and Lucy stood off in the living room watching the happy couple. Martin picked Ruthie up and held her in his arms.

They shared a kiss before saying their goodbyes and leaving the house. When they pulled out of the driveway Martin gave Ruthie a passionate kiss.

"I missed you."

"You'll never know how much I missed you." They pulled in to the restaurant and shared a wonderful dinner just the two of them. After dinner they headed back to Martin's house to find the house emptied.

They sat on the couch and kissed more passionately with each passing second. Ruthie came to a decision very fast in her head she was going to have sex with Martin and today was the night. She pulled away and turned towards him, she smiled seductively at Martin and he knew what was gonna happen and wasn't sure.

"You sure?"

"Yes Martin I'm sure." She kissed him and he pulled her on top of him taking his shirt off. Soon they were having sex on his couch with the chance that his dad and his step-mom could walk in and ruin the perfect moment. It was perfect, just the two of them confirming their love for each other.

After 2 hours of passionate sex Ruthie fell on the floor, Martin right next to her, chest heaving. She cuddled up next to him and the reality of what happened set in. She sat up and pulled her dress back on got up. Martin quickly got dressed and they walked back across the street.

They sat on the couch acting nothing had happened watching a love story on TV. Her mom walked past and smiled at how happy they looked. Ruthie had fallen asleep with her head on Martin's shoulder and Martin's around her. Martin had also fallen asleep with his head resting on Ruthie. Mrs. Camden threw a blanket around them and went upstairs to go to bed.

"Shouldn't we wake them?"

"Erik leave them, nothing will happen." She kissed him before returning on her way upstairs. Mr. Camden soon followed too tired to worry about his daughter. They trusted them and knew nothing would happen.

The next morning Ruthie woke up and felt Martin's arm around her. She smiled and whispered in his ear, "Good morning." Martin woke up and looked at Ruthie she looked beautiful in the morning.

"So how mad do you think you're parents are?"

"Not at all, I think they trust us."

"If they only knew."

"Shh….." She kissed Martin to shut his mouth. "They don't need to know about that."

"They'd kill us."

"Exactly so its our little secret."

"Okay." They stood up and Ruthie walked Martin to the door. They shared a long kiss before her parents came down stairs. "I love you."

"I love you too."

"Dinner with Mac later?"

"Sounds good."

"I'll call you later."

"Not if I call you first."

"Bye Ruthie."

"Bye Martin." With more one kiss Martin walked across the street preparing for the worst when he entered the house. He opened the door quietly and his dad looked from the kitchen table down the hall and said hello.

"You're not mad?"

"No Mrs. Camden called and said that you two were sleeping and that you guys need sleep, so no I'm not mad."

"I thought you were gonna kill me."

"I would only do that if I didn't know where you were, but I know nothing will happen."

"You can trust me."

"I know."

"Good."
