AN: Sorry if there are any spelling/punctuation errors (:


Two years later Victoria and Emily found themselves in Paris celebrating their two year anniversary.

The first few months had been crazy, with the media already surrounding the family because of Daniel's death and when Victoria and Emily came out the media exploded. Calling the Grayson's The most dysfunctional family of this century.

Victoria had had the harder time. Charlotte hadn't spoken to her in months, refusing to even acknowledge that Victoria was her mother in the media but eventually she came around when she saw that Emily had changed her mother for the better. Conrad was still ignoring Victoria, his pride was hurt. When Victoria first told him the two had fought and it ended with Victoria running back to the beach house with tears streaming down her face.

Seeing Victoria cry had made Emily cry which only resulted in making Victoria more upset than she already was. Many times when they were cuddling at night, they would argue about who was big spoon and Emily had always let Victoria win but when she fell asleep Emily would shift and turn Victoria into little spoon, Emily would hear Victoria sniffling.

"Victoria? Are you sure you made the right choice?" Emily would ask, scared that Victoria would say no.

Victoria would then turn around to face Emily and twist a piece of her blonde hair around her finger.

"Emily I love you. Even with whats going on with Charlotte and Conrad and the continuous hate from the media I will never stop. You're my escape, my place to be where I can be myself and be happy." she would whisper back and then cup Emily's face and give her a long lingering kiss.

In Paris they were happier. The media wasn't as crazy up here. The pair had just finished a dinner at they favourite restaurant near their apartment and were now walking home.

The clouds in the sky got darker and released a harsh rain onto them. Emily grabbed Victoria's hand and ran towards home laughing as the rain soaked through them.

After Emily had finished a long and hot shower, she came out of the bathroom and was surprised to see that Victoria hadn't gotten in bed but was instead sitting on the bed surrounded by roses. Candles were everywhere making the room smell with a light vanilla scent.

"Whats all this for?" Emily asked sitting down next to Victoria.

"Emily since two years ago there was only one thing on my mind. you changed my life Emily and for the first time in a long time I'm happy. I wanted to do this so many times but I was never able to find the courage." Victoria said and then took a deep breath "Emily Thorne, will you marry me?"

"Yes! Victoria of course!" Emily squealed and let Victoria slide the ring on her finger.

Emily pushed Victoria onto a lying position on the bed and then straddled her hips.

"I love you Victoria." Emily moaned into Victoria's ear.


Flash Forward - Winter

They had been back home for awhile. Charlotte had been overjoyed at the news of the engagement which made Victoria overjoyed which made Emily happy. The media was also happy which surprised Victoria and Emily.

Emily wasn't happy yet though and she wouldn't be until he came and said what he needed to say and then left her alone hopefully forever.

Emily had wanted to get out of here and try to outrun him for as long as she could but Victoria had wanted to stay to be close to Charlotte and Emily didn't want to argue with her.

One night she heard the lock downstairs open and she knew it was time for her to face her fears.

She slowly got out of bed, carefully to not wake Victoria. She quietly ran down the stairs and met his angry face.

"Amanda Clarke, I trusted you when you said we would be together but when I come back I learn that you have been sleeping with my mother."

"Daniel, I'm sorry alright. I didn't mean to fall in love with Victoria but it happened and I'm not leaving her." Emily whispered angrily.

Daniel glared at her and clenched his fists "I spent all this time hiding out in a cabin in the damn Bahamas pretending to be dead for you, because I loved you Emily but it no longer seems that you love me." Daniel said and then glanced down at her hand, she wasn't wearing his ring but she was wearing one.

"Did she propose to you?" Daniel screamed.

Emily winced, there was no way Victoria could have slept through that. When she heard feet running down the stairs she knew it was over.

"Emily? Are you alright?" Victoria asked and then looked to the man in the shadows. "Daniel?" she cried.

Daniel steeped out of the shadows and into the light, his face hardened.

"Mother, I see you've been sleeping with Amanda." Daniel said not bothering to hide the hatred in his voice.

"Amanda? Daniel are you alright? Where have you been?" Victoria asked marveling at the fact that her son was still alive.

Emily looked at Daniel, begging him to lie but she knew he wouldn't.

"Emily- of right Amanda is here to destroy our lives and anyone else's that wronged her father. She told me this one night and because I loved her and then pretended to die and then hid out in one of Amanda's houses." he growled. "Mother you do realize that Amanda's using you like she used me. She didn't love me and she surely does not love you."

Victoria's expression said it all, she believed Daniel. "Emily is any of this true?" she asked.

Emily glanced downwards, "My real name is Amanda."

"Who was your father?" Victoria asked, already fearing the answer.

"David Clarke."

That sentence was enough to make Victoria cry out. "was any of this real? I need to leave. I just I need to clear my head." she said, ice queen expression on and grabbed the keys and ran out to the car.

"Victoria! Come back! I love you!" Emily screamed.

Daniel and Emily had made a tense conversation waiting for Victoria to come back.

"Okay, so maybe I overreacted. I had a lot of anger and I let it out in the completely the wrong way and I'm sorry."

Emily glared at him, "Do you expect me to forgive you? You could have destroyed everything I had with Victoria. I was happy Daniel! For once in my pathetic life I was happy and you decided to ruin it."

Daniel had nothing to say to that and relieved when the phone started ringing.

Emily jumped up from her seat and ran across the room to pick up the phone, hoping that it would be Victoria.

Daniel absentmindedly watched Emily listen to what the person on the phone was saying and was only pulled back into reality when he heard the clatter of the phone on the ground and when Emily's horrified face turned to face him.
