Omg so I haven't updated in a while cuz im just soooo stressed right now! I have like so much homework and other stuff to do its so insane! I am like dying of work overload! D:

...or at least that's what I could say, but that would be a huge lie.

The real reason why I haven't updated?

I didn't feel like it :P

I woke to the sound of pans clanking and harsh winter light streaming in through the blinds. I blinked blearily, not wanting to get up. Instead, I rolled over away from the sun, trying to get back to sleep until I noticed Roderich's half of the bed was empty. Curious, I propped myself up on my elbows and looked around for him. I noticed the sounds that woke me up were coming from our small kitchen and smiled.

Aw he's making me breakfast! He never does that!

Still grinning, I threw off the covers and practically skipped down the hall without bothering to change out of my pj's.

"Mornin' Roddy!" I exclaimed, pecking him on the cheek.

"Ah, good morning Elizaveta," he replied with a tiny smile.

"So whatcha cookin'?" I asked as I plopped down gracelessly on a nearby chair.

He raised and eyebrow disapprovingly at my unladylike behavior and "indecent" state of dress, but thankfully, knew better than to comment.

"Bacon and eggs."

"Yum." I greedily eyed the plate he set in front of me, realizing that he had made my eggs scrambled, just the way I liked them. It was obvious that this was an apology for that stupid fight last night. I smiled again and dug in.

Our conversation was polite and, frankly quite boring. We were both slightly tentative, the fight having made the atmosphere between us awkward and a little uncomfortable. We soon finished eating and our day went on as usual, him playing his piano and me doing housework.

At around noon he called out to me but I didn't hear what he said.

"huh?"

Switching off the loud and obnoxious vacuum cleaner I had been using, I stuck my head into the piano room.

"What did you say Roderich?"

"I asked If you wanted to go somewhere for lunch."

I shrugged. "Sure."

"How about that nice little cake shop down the street?"

I shrugged again. I didn't really like the place he was referring to, It was too stuffy and formal, but I knew it was his favorite shop so I would humor him. A few minutes later we headed out into the chilly winter air. I wasn't paying attention as we were walking, I was too tired. After all, I hadn't been able to fall asleep until three in the morning, and the boring, mind-numbing chores I did didn't exactly help keep me alert. I was trying to stifle a yawn when Roderich suddenly stopped.

"Eliza?"

"Hmm?"

"...I think we're lost."

BWAHAHA! That's right, this chapter is nothing but filler! Extremely short filler! :D This was supposed to be a long chapter, (seriously!) but I haven't completely written the rest out yet, so you will just have to wait. :P Oh and guess what? Today's my birthday! That means you have to give me a cookie! XD
