Zander 1st

I awoke with a start. The hairs on the back of my neck rising instantly. There was someone, or something outside.

I carefully unwrapped my arms from Aida, making sure not to wake her up. Looking around the room, I tried to find something that was worthy of being a weapon. The only thing I saw was a large stick that needed to be chopped up for later use. I quickly grabbed it and padded across the floor to the front was barely any light seeping in through the windows. It must be really early in the morning.

I looked out the window by the door and saw that it was lightly snowing. Looking down I saw I wasn't exactly...clothed. I grabbed a blanket out of the large basket under the window and wrapped it around myself. It wasn't much, but it worked for now.

I slowly opened the front door and peeked outside. Standing there was a young woman. About my and Aida's age. She looked up at me. Her lips were almost completely blue and she was shivering violently. There was a light cloak around her shoulders, and a hood over her sleek dark brown eyes were chocolate brown just like her hair.

She was beautiful.

Not as beautiful as Aida of course, but she was pretty.

"Can I help you?"I asked still hiding behind the door.

The girl tried to answer, but her eyes rolled back into her head and she fainted.

I dropped my stick-weapon and caught her. Sometime in this process, I heard Aida shift in her sleep. She sat up.

"Zander?" She called.

"Yeah I'm here."

"What's going on? Is everything okay?"

"Yeah, but um. We have a small situation."

After hearing this, her head swiveled to look at me and she grabbed her knives.

Aida took one look at me and the girl then relaxed. She rubbed her temples.

"Who is she?" Aida asked.

"I, uh, don't really know. She just showed up at the front door then fainted." I said quickly.

"Okay," Aida said slowly, "What do you want to do with her?"

I thought about this for a moment. There were really only two options that we could do. We could throw her back out into the cold, or we could keep her with us and find out why she's here.

"Lets keep her here." I said. "She might be someone important."

"Okay. Put her by the fire so she can defrost. When did it start snowing?"

"I don't know," I said while picking the girl up and carrying her over to the couch by the fire. "It must've started sometime last night."

I could hear Aida get out of bed and get dressed. We both had fallen asleep quickly after our little 'ron-de-vu' and had forgotten to get dressed.

Aida walked over to me and planted a kiss on my lips.

"Good morning love." She said sweetly.

I kissed her back. "Good morning."

It was weird hearing sweet words out of Aida's mouth. She isn't really one to say sweet words.

We stood there for a few seconds. Just holding each other. It was then that I realized I wasn't exactly clothed.

"Umm, Aida?"

"Yes Zander?"

"Can I get dressed please?"

Aida looked down ans smirked. Her green eyes sparkled as he looked back at my eyes.

"Do you deserve the right to get dressed after last night?" She asked seductively.

"Do you have the right to be talking about what you did last night?" I replied.

She let out a small laugh. "Point taken."

I let go of her and walked over to the bed where my suitcase was. It took me no longer than 30 seconds to get dressed, which impressed Aida.

"How the hell do you get dressed that quickly?" She was not drinking something in the kitchen and was starting to make breakfast.

"I guess I'm just talented"

"As if." Aida said with yet another smirk.

I walked over to her and placed a hand on either side of her torso, pining her to the counter.

"Are you saying I'm not talented Ms. Aida?"

"I just might be Mr. Zander." She paused, briefly glancing down at my lips. "What are you going to do if I was?"

"Lets just say that it would only be a fraction of what I did last night." With that last sentence, I closed the distance between us and planted a kiss on her lips. Aida deepened the kiss by opening her mouth and wrapping her arms around my neck. I removed my arms from the counter and circled her small waist with my arms. I licked her bottom lip, requesting entrance and she happily obliged. We explored each other's mouths for what seemed like forever. We were both snapped back to reality when we heard a moan from the living room. The girl was waking up.

Aida and I glanced at each other before walking over to the couch that the girl was on. We knelt down in front of her face, feeling the warmth from the fire on our backs.

The girl moved around a few times before finally opening her eyes. Her pupils went wide and she gasped.

"Zander?!"
