I can't believe he's here. I just can't believe he's here. Somebody please smack me upside the head because I could swear this is too good to be true.

As I awoke the next morning I was aware there was someone in my bed. But when I turned, I didn't recognize him. I rolled my eyes at myself remembering the previous day. Our outing to Metrotown, our dinner...our night. I blushed madly.

"H-holy shit!" I thought. "W-we...we didn't...oh my God we did...we made love on the first night he was here!" I sat up and brushed his hair from his face and kissed his lips gently. I looked ahead and reminisced about last night. He made love to me in a way that made me honestly believe my heart had had a hostile takeover and my soul was so happy I could have flown. I sighed contentedly and nearly jumped out of my skin as Hero woke up and slid his hands around my waist. I yelped and looked back. he grinned and I glared at him.
"That was so mean! You scared the crap out of me!" I exclaimed in mock annoyance. He laughed and I insisted it wasn't funny. He pulled me down on top of him and kissed me softly, the fingers of one hand running through my hair and his other hand running up my back. I closed my eyes and melted into him. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my forehead.
"Hey, Rosalinn. Last night was wonderful. I had fun." He said smiling to me. I kissed his lips and smiled back.
"Yes it was..." I replied soflty.He slid his hand up my neck and rubbed my cheek, looking me straight in the eyes, which made me blush a bright crimson.
"I love you..." he said.
"I love you too, baby." I said returning his strong gaze.He sat up and pulled me with him, then climbed out of bed. I burst out laughing as he stood. He raised an eyebrow and I pointed. He was as bare as a tree in the winter. His face went beet red as I threw him his pants and underwear. I stood and as he slid his shirt on I found clothes for the day. He eyeballed me and blushed himself.
I felt his eyes and I turned, just as I slid on my pants and shirt. He came up behind me and slid his arms around my waist.
"Hey sexy..." he purred in my ear. I giggled softly and turned around and hugged him.
"You have no idea, my love, how happy I am you are here." I said whispering to him. We left the bedroom and I started breakfast. We ate as Lexi called me to say she was on her way home with Dante. I told her I would wait to go out again. This morning was the convention so she would have to hurry. I kissed Hero and sat down with him to watch the news and eat breakfast. After we were done Hero stood and grabbed my plate as I took my last bite. I blinked and looked up to him as he grabbed my fork too, grinning. He stuck those in my dishwasher and turned it on.
"Told you you weren't doing dishes while I was here" he said coming back into the living room and

pulling me up to my feet. I looked at the clock and smiled.
"It's time to go love." I said as Lexi walked in the door.
"Good timing!" I said, grabbing my costume bag and other things. I grinned as Lex was trailing her Jos, who was in charge of looking after Dante, Austin and the twins, Christian and Mikaila. Luckily she had managed to drag her husband Chris with her. Chris came in and shook Hero's hand and they chatted briefly before the three of us headed out.

We made it to Simon Fraser University and registered. We grabbed our passes and both Hero and Lexi looked at me and grinned. I knew what they wanted. They wanted to see my costume on me. I had to put it on anyhow because it was a half hour to rehearsal, so I blushed and went into the bathroom to change. I came out a short while later and looked down. I had decided to be Full Moon for the first day. My blonde wig flowed down my back in a perfect imitation of her hair. I had chosen to do the look she had when Izumi covered for Takuto's disappearance in her last concert. The lavendar ribbons and pink material swirled around my body and my large feathered wings touched the ground nearly. I smiled softly as Hero looked to me. His eyes looked me down and then up.

"My angel..." He came up and breathed past my ear as he folded me into a hug. he kissed my lips and I heard someone almost scream. "LOOK! FULL MOON!" I turned and almost got glomped for pictures. I allowed a few before rehearsals and I took off, being followed by Hero, who was about to growl at the male Full Moon fans, and Lexi, obviously about to start laughing. I got to the stage about five minutes before my name was called and sat for a moment. Other poeple began to come up to myself, Hero and Lex and talk. I even saw a few people that had asked me to sing earlier and I had to decline so I could save my voice for the concert. I went on stage and threw some pitches for rehearsal as the other two went and roamed the campus.

Hours later I readied myself for the first half of Anime Idol contest. I smiled to Hero as he sat down and parted ways with me so I could sit on stage. I kissed his lips and he hugged me.
"Good Luck my love..." He said to me and smiled rubbing my cheek. I got on stage and watched as three others came ahead of me. Someone actually went ahead and sang the theme to Sailor Moon and I winced being as she did not have good pitch control. The second was a guy singing a Gackt song. Awesome job, just not good with keeping up. The last one before me had decided on a Witch Hunter Robin song and I had wanted to do it, but I had decided on Full Moon's "Eternal Snow". As the applause died down from the previous singer, I stood as I was called up as Full Moon. The applause thundered in ares of the audience due to my walking around looking the way I did. I looked down at Hero and Lexi as the opening notes of my song began. Lex waved and gave me a thumbs up and Hero blew me a kiss and mouthed "I love you" to me. I waited for my cue and started to sing.

I gazed to him in the crowd and smiled as my words reached him. He had seen the english meaning. He knew.

As I finished my song people even stood to applaud me. I bowed tearily to the crowd and turned to the judges to await my judging. I had sang. For him. And he heard me. The first judge was an asian girl dressed as Subaru from Hack Sign.
"Well Full Moon. " She giggled a bit "That was really wonderful. it sounded so like her! Excellent!"
I smiled so brightly I felt like a light. the next judge was a guy dressed like Gaara from Naruto.
"You have my vote, Miss Full Moon. You might want to work on your nerves though. I could see your mike shake from here..." He said with a grin. I blushed and smiled. "Arigatou!" The last judge was a girl dressed as no one in particular. She thought a moment.
"That was nothing close to good..." She said. My eyes widened and the crowd booed her. Then she stood and grabbed the mike.
"That was GREAT!" The crowd stopped and started to clap. I jumped up and Hero raced onto the stage and hugged me. I hugged him back.
"Okay everyone, time to decide who moves on!"

I stood and held onto Hero. It was between ten of us and was to be put down to four and then two.

"Okay the first one to move on is...Sailor Moon!" He motioned towards a guy dressed as Sailor Moon. He jumped up and bounced onto the stage. I rolled my eyes and Hero snickered.
"Second is...Lina Inverse!" He said as I girl dressed from Slayers got on stage and waved.

"Third is The lady Mithra!" Well that's cool. Someone chose to be a mithra girl from Final Fantasy Online.
"And last is Miss Full Moon!" I nearly jumped as Hero kissed my cheek and pushed me ahead. I shook the announcers hand and smiled widely.
"Arigatou gozaimasu minna-san! Arigatou!" I waved and bowed my head.

"Okay everyone these are the competitors so join us tomorrow for round three!!!" I hugged Hero again and he smiled excitedly.
"You were so great baby!" He said to me.
"Thank you, love" I said I walked down to meet Lexi.
"Great job Amber!" She said and gave me a thumbs up. I high-fived her and grinned.
"Thanks Lex!"
We walked to the bus stop and chatted about the day. After the competition there was not much going on until the next day, so we left and went home. I leaned my head on Hero and smiled. What an awesome day. As I dozed I felt him wrap his arms around me and kiss my lips softly. We got home about two hours later and grabbed sushi before going inside. Lex left to go to her friends for the night and I leaned on Hero while I finished my food. He looked down. "It's going to be hard to go home you know..." He said. my look must have saddened for he turned and kissed me.
"But I have the whole summer almost! Please, don't be upset love!" I smiled and kisses him back.

"Don't worry. I'm not too upset I will miss you though."
He slid his hand up my side and I shivered.
"Christ. Amber I love you..." He teared up and so did I. We kissed as we let them fall and he lay down on the couch pulling me with him. I blushed and closed my eyes. We were in for another sleepless night. Oh well. I enjoyed every minute I lost.
