Anne arrived at Gilbert's boarding house around 11 o'clock the next afternoon.
"I would like to rent one of your rooms Sir," Anne told the receptionist, "How close of a room can I get to my fiancé, Mr. Gilbert Blythe?" she added.
"Lets see," began the receptionist, "I can give you the room right next door, the occupant moved out a few days ago." the receptionist finished as he gave Anne a key.
"How much?" she asked.
"You pay after you use it or on a monthly basis," the receptionist told her, "Have a nice stay, Miss your room is the second floor, two doors to the left and Mr. Blythe's is the third door."
Anne walked up the stairs and then turned left as instructioned. She unlocked the door and set down her things. She looked at herslef in the mirror, and adjusted her hair a bit. Then she grabbed the keys, locked the room back up and knew that Gilbert was about to take a lunch break, so she went to his school and waited about five minutes until the classes got out. She saw Gilbert and started walking slowly in the other direction. Slow enough for Gilbert to catch up. Gilbert did catch up. When he saw who was next to him, he blinked and rubbed his eyes. "Carrots? Anne?" he asked. Anne turned and nodded. Almost immediately after her nod, before she could say or do anything else, she was thrust into a kiss. A very welcome kiss. The lips she had not felt in what seemed like years.
"Wait a minute," Gilbert said breaking out of the kiss, "Why are you here?" he asked.
"What do you think?" asked Anne.
"Ok," Gilbert stammered out of happiness.
"Now, how long is your lunch?" Anne asked.
"An hour," told Gilbert.
"Well you, Mr. Blythe, are taking me to lunch," Anne said taking his arm.
Anne walked slowly back to the boarding house, and decided to take a little rest before Gilbert got out of school. Before long, it was time for Gilbert to get back, Anne was still out like a light. Gilbert knocked on the door lightly. Anne had told him she was going to take a nap, so he knocked only loud enough for her to hear it if she was awake, not loud enough to wake her up. So Gilbert came to the conclusion that Anne was asleep (which she was). So he decided to ask the receptionist for the extra key (it was worth a shot). This receptionist happened to be his friend.
"Hello," Gilbert began, "I was wondering if you could do me a favor."
"That all depends."
"I was wondering, if you could give me the key to my fiance's room. She's visiting me, and well, she's asleep, and I want to wake her up without a loud noise. Can I have the key or not?"
"Sure, but you owe me a favor," he hands Gilbert the key.
"Thanks so much," Gilbert said as he walked back towards Anne's room. He knocked lightly once more and slipped the key into the hole.
Gilbert walked in. He looked at Anne sleeping so peacefully. He sat on the bed and began playing with her hair, running his fingers through her beautiful carroty hair. Anne began to wake up. She blinked a couple times. Then her eyes went square, and she opened her mouth to scream. Gilbert pulled her into a kiss before she could. She quickly pulled away. She was going to scold Gilbert like she did when they were younger. Then she decided to forget about it, and began kissing Gilbert again. When they had finished kissing, Anne asked Gilbert why he hadn't just waken her up.
He explained that she didn't deserve to be waken up by a loud sound. They embraced for a long time after that. Then they decided to go eat. They went to a little romantic restaurant. With tons of couples just like them, truely in love and not taking their eyes off each other.
Then they walked back to the boarding house. It was relatively late. Gilbert had a bit of homework to do so they said good bye to eachother by Anne's room. They shared a goodnight kiss, and said goodnight to eachother then meandered into their own rooms.
