I was orginally planning to include their "playtime" in this chapter, but I think it will work better a few chapters from now.

She untangled herself from his body, not really wanting to leave the comfort of his arms or the warmth of his bed. She smiled as she bent to place a kiss on the lips of the sleeping prince.

"Thank you and sweet dreams." She whispered then brushed a stray hair behind his ear.

She gathered her clothes and dressed. She left him a note saying she took the key to his condo from his key ring and hoped he wouldn't mind. She took one last look at him and reluctantly left, promising she'd be back as soon as she could.

On the cab ride to the office she couldn't help but think of last night. She remembered being so scared and he just held her for the longest time trying to comfort her. Then after what seemed like an eternity, something happened. She couldn't remember how it got started but it was incredible. Thinking about it made her blush and wish it was after sunset. She tried to push the thoughts out of her mind as she tried to mentally prepare herself for the day ahead. She had meetings with 3 potential clients. All the cases lately had been normal – cheating spouses, missing persons, theft, and until today she missed the supernatural cases. Now she hoped things would stay normal. Even though she probably would not openly admit it to anyone, she wanted to focus on another aspect of her life.

Lunchtime and Coreen bounded in with Chinese.

"So, anything good."

"Nope. Mrs. Clairemont wants to find the jewelry and silver her grandson stole. Miss Edwards is a nutcase who wants to find out if the guy she wants to marry is cheating on her, but they aren't even together, they've never even actually been on a date. Oh, I turned that one down." She said seeing the look on Coreen's face. "And Mr. Piedster wants to find out who is stealing pencils from the office supply cupboard. Another one that I turned down."

"Pencils?" Coreen had to suppress a laugh. "Isn't that kind of petty?"

"Yeah that's what I thought. So, what were you out there reading?"

"Dream books. I know you didn't ask, but I thought there could be something to them."

"And did you find anything?"

"Find anything about what?" Mike said surprising the girls as he walked in.

"Vicki's been having weird dreams and in everyone she can feel when the people are dieing."

"I was hoping you were all done with the supernatural stuff."

"Speaking of done," Vicki said in between bites, "isn't your review this week?"

"Tomorrow."

"You nervous?"

"I've been a good boy. I've got no reason to be nervous. That and Crowley isn't going to be there."

"Yay."

They shared a few more minutes of friendly conversation, laughing and carrying on and then Mike had to leave to go back to the station.

Vicki left to go shopping. The anniversary of the day she met Henry is coming up and she wanted to get him something. She thought it sounded cheesy, but meeting him changed her life. She looked everywhere and couldn't find anything that seemed just right. Finally she found herself in an antique store and saw a pocket watch with an inscription that said:

A Time for Us

She thought it was perfect and it brought back a memory from Sunday school when she was a little girl.

She bought it and hurried home to wrap it and write up the card. She went over to Henry's and left it on the bed so he would see it first thing when he woke up.

Ok, kind of a filler chapter, but I hope you like it.

Mike and Coreen were getting angry that I hadn't included them yet, so I caved and let them have some lines.

Ok, reviews are always greatly appreciated. Good ones and bad ones.
