Sorry, no Kris/Reid conversation this update. Couldn't find a good one. Hopefully there will be more in the next updates. As always review and thanks to you just got PONED for be awesome. Check out her stories…all awesome.

"Yes, she's here. Apparently there was a change of plans and Dominique, their mother, sent the oldest to hunt Sarah down and kill her. The rest are still back home," Nicholas informed Caleb. After a few minuets Caleb let out the air he had been holding in.

"Well at least that means we only have one hunter to worry about," Caleb replied. He lifted Sarah and held her bridal style.

"Well…I can see you've gotten things handled here. I just leave."

"Nicholas," Caleb called out.

"Yes," his eyebrows shot up in surprise.

"Thanks," he said, gesturing to Sarah in his arm; fast asleep by now. Nicholas disappeared and Caleb carried Sarah to where he had parked his mustang. He carefully buckled her into the passenger seat and drove back to Danvers manor.

Sarah let out a groan as she turned to her side. She had been bundled up in a comfy red comforter. Immediately, she recognized the room she was in and the bed that was Caleb's.

The door opened and Caleb walked in, "Morning princess."

"Hey, how long have I been out?"

"I'd say awhile. It's nine thirty."

"What! We're late! We've got to get to school," Sarah cried out in shock. Caleb grabbed her by the waist and off the bed, which she had been standing on while ranting. He sent her on the ground in front of him and wrapped his arms around her waist.

"Mom called in for us; we're not going to school today."

"So you mean we're ditching," she asked suspiciously.

"Don't think of it as ditching; think of it as a mental health day and god do you need one."

"You do realize that I just transferred here and have a ton of work to do just to catch up, don't you?"

"Oh, come on. You need a break and so do I, please," he asked, pouting and giving her puppy dog eyes that she could never say no too.

She leaned in and gave him a small kiss on his pouting lips, "Fine, we'll go but if I flunk it's all your fault."

"Great, now get dressed. Mother sent me up to get you for breakfast."

"M-mother…oh no, did you tell her why I sent the night?"

"See, that's something I wanted to talk to you about," he said; grabbing her hands and holding them to his chest.

"Ummm, okay. So what's going on?"

"Promise you won't be mad?"

"Promise, now just tell me," she insisted.

"I had to tell her about you; you knowing about us and you being a vampire."

"What," she asked in shock.

"I had to tell her…everything." He saw several emotions pass through her flawless face in seconds: anger, worry, and most importantly fear. All Caleb wanted to do was to hold the trembling beauty in his arms-and that is exactly what he did.

"So what did she say," she asked in an attempt to hold back the tears threatening to break through.

"She said that she is completely envious that you will never have to worry about wrinkles," he replied with a chuckle.

"So, she's okay with it," she asked relieved.

"Yes, now get ready. I'm taking you out."

"Where," she asked.

"It's a surprise," Caleb answered as he closed the door behind him. Sarah got up, showered and was downstairs in her t-shirt and washed-out jeans.

"Good morning dear,' Evelyn smiled at her.

"Morning Evelyn, thank you for letting me spend the night here."

"Oh, think nothing of it. Now, why don't you two have breakfast," Evelyn stated.

"Aren't you going to join us," Sarah asked as Evelyn opened the back door to leave.

"Oh I can't. I have a few meeting to go to this morning but the two of you enjoy yourselves." After Evelyn left, Caleb and Sarah ate in complete silence.

"So Mr. Danvers, what are the chances that you'll actually tell me where you're taking me?"

"Not gonna happen, princess," Caleb laughed at her pouting face. "You're adorable, you know that?"

"Adorable enough to be let in on the secret," she asked.

"No and you're just wasting time, you know," he answered.

They drove for about the entire morning and reached they're destination around noon.

"The beach," Sarah asked in surprise.

"Yup…fun in the sun," Caleb smirked.

"Race you to the water," she shouted. Sarah ran out of the car and on to the beach with Caleb at her heels. She jumped into the water fully clothed. He grabbed her by her waist and spun her around in circles. Both lay on the shore in fits of laughter.

"Glad to see you smiling again," Caleb admitted. He pushed back strands of wet hair from her eyes; tucking them behind her ears.

"Glad to be smiling again," she admitted. "So what's next on the Danvers agenda?"

"Well how about this…," Caleb leaned in and kissed her.
