Hey. Just got settled in a new state. Have internet hooked up now. YAY! Anyways here's the next chapter. L.O.L. = lot's of lemon. P.S. I don't own the covenant. Anyways, read and review please. I understand if you're mad at me for not writing in so long, but I beg of you. Don't take it out on this poor, innocent *cough* story.

Beth stretched as she woke up the next morning and the clock read 8:15. She rolled and saw Tyler sleeping soundly and didn't want to wake him so she eased out of bed and made her way down the stairs. She laughed a little as she saw her brother in his bed fully dressed with a junior girl, also dressed draped across him. However, all laughing stopped as she made it to the first floor. People were EVERYWHERE. She sighed and just didn't even bother as she made her way to the kitchen. She pulled some cereal out of a cabinet, a bowl, milk from the fridge and two spoons. She saw Shane crashed on the couch much like Matt only with two girls. She shook her head and headed up stairs. Once back in her room she went into her TV room. She decided she didn't want cereal anymore once she got in there so she put the milk in the mini-fridge. She grabbed some M&M's from a bowl in the cabinet and then grabbed her favorite movie and popped it in the DVD player. As soon as The Notebook began, she was hooked. She was so drawn in with the lights off and her attention fixated on the screen that she didn't notice when the door opened. Tyler stood in the doorway for a minute and watched as a silent tear rolled down her cheek. On the screen some girl with red hair was slapping around a guy and yelling at him to go, get out of here. "He obviously doesn't love her as much as he claims because other than a bit of anger he gives her absolutely no emotional response whatsoever." Beth jumped up and screamed at the top of her lungs. "WHAT THE HELL TYLER! You nearly gave me a heart attack!" He smiled as he walked over to her. "And he does to love her; he just doesn't want her to see how torn he is by her mother's hurtful words. She doesn't think he is good enough for her. But it turns out, they are perfect together." He gave her a chuckle. "Passionate about this much?" She blushed deep red. "It's just that it's a classic romance that deserves all of the defense it can get. Not to mention the fact that Ryan Gosling is freaking sexy." She looked over at him as he raised his eyebrows. "Don't worry babe, it's really close between you two." He sat down on the side of the chair. "Well do you mind if I watch with you to see what makes this movie so great?" She pretended to think about it for a minute. She finally sighed and scooted over. "Grab me some gummi worms before you sit down though. That's the sitting down fee," she said with a smile. He smiled and said "I guess so. But only because this movie looks SOOOO thrilling." She giggled before saying "You know it. Now quiet, she just found out that she won't be able to tell Noah good-bye." He plopped down beside her and watched the screen with her. He lost track of time, but a while after that, Beth was bawling.

The end credits started to roll and he stood up and stretched. She wiped her eyes and stood up. "Are you gonna be ok," he asked her with a hidden smile. She nodded yes as she opened the door and headed to her closet. Tyler followed her in there as she went to her dresser. She pulled open the top drawer, pulled out a simple matching green bra/panties set and then turned to Tyler. "What should I wear today?" He walked into her closet and turned circles a couple times. He finally walked over to a rack and grabbed a denim skirt and then crossed the room and selected a shirt that had a line of fabric separating her chest from her stomach. That line, plus the top and bottom edges were red and each section created by the middle line had a flower design in it. He handed them to her and then asked "So how many people are still downstairs," with a smirk. She stuck her tongue out at him and then said "All of them and you know it." He laughed and said "Yeah, I do. But I didn't want to be the one to tell you. So, when are you going to start kicking people out?" She thought about it for a second then said "I guess just when ever they all start to wake up. God, this place is going to be hangover central." She laughed. "You know, I'm not really going to be too sad I couldn't drink last night." He walked over to her and wrapped his arms around her still thin waist. "So, I don't think with all those drunks down there being knocked out that they will be going or even waking up anytime soon, so what would you like to do," he asked with a wicked gleam in his eye. She smiled at him. She had hoped he would be feeling better after his change so she had brought something special for him. It was the outfit she had bought at the mall the day she met Josh (check profile for description). She gave him a devious smile and said "Why don't we take a shower and then I'll give you a surprise, a sort of late birthday present if you will." He looked at her suspiciously but agreed. She laughed as she pulled him along to her bathroom. She turned the water on nearly as hot as it would go and then turned around to see Tyler lifting his shirt up, flexing his muscles and she lost her breath for a minute. When his head was out of the shirt he caught her staring and smiled his brilliant smile. He locked the door and then made his way over to her as she quickly looked down. He said "Look at me," and she looked up.

She met his eyes and he had an intense look in them as he slowly reached down and lifted her shirt hem up above her head. He knelt down and slipped her shorts off so she was left standing in nothing but her boy shorts and matching bra. He stood back up and she reached out and undid the button on his jeans. She slid them down, along with his boxers and he stepped out of them. He watched as she reached behind her and popped open her clasp and let the straps slide down her arms and the bra fall to the floor. He gently caressed the pale skin on her arms, sliding his hands up and down her arms. After his second trip down her arms, he rested his hands on her hips. He then leaned down and kissed her as he removed her boy shorts. He let them fall after he could no longer reach without breaking the kiss. She raised her arms and put them around his neck as she dragged him to the shower. He opened the door and they stepped in then closed it behind them.

She broke the kiss first and had to ask "Ok Mr. Intense, what's going on? I don't think you've ever kissed me like that before." He shrugged and explained, "Sometimes, when someone ascends, they aren't always able to handle it. I didn't know if I was going to make it, but then I thought back of you and it sort of pulled me through. I'm just grateful that I could do it with your help." She looked horror struck and took a step back. "You mean you could have died? And you didn't tell me that I might not see you again? Why would you do that?" Her voice was becoming shrill. "Shhh, shhh. It's ok. I didn't want to worry you. No one has died from ascending in nearly 150 years. I didn't think I wouldn't make it, but I'm just happy nothing bad happened. Mine was actually very calm compared to the others. I feel fine today and they were all still healing nearly three days later. I was very lucky," he said as he wrapped her in a hug and buried his face in her hair. She felt like she was hyperventilating. "So you were hoping for the best but preparing for the worst," she asked slowly. He nodded. "Exactly." She was shaking her head yes and said "Ok, that I can deal with. But what would you have done if you hadn't made it," she asked looking up at him through the water and her lashes. He said "I had a plan that you would have known about soon enough if something had happened. And I wasn't going to leave you and the baby without anything so I had plans for that too." She nodded and said "I appreciate that but I would much rather have you than all of your backup plans," as she wrapped her arms around his chest. "That's why I worked so hard at making it through. But I think we should hurry up and get bathed." She raised her eyebrows at him. "I want my present," he said with a sly smile. She smirked and said "All in good time." She grabbed her soap and started lathering his chest up and massaging his flesh. She paid extra attention to his shoulders and arms, kneading his muscles with enough skill to make him moan softly. She smiled and pressed harder as she continued. He looked down and said "Well that's just not fair." He picked her up and she chuckled softly. He then started sucking on her neck and throat, swirling his tongue and she started groaning and scraping her nails up and down his back as he moved on to her mouth, swallowing each others noises. He easily slid into her and she tilted her head back, smiling at the beautiful friction it caused. He pulled out and she pushed herself back down on him. He was amazed that they knew what each one wanted without even having to say it. Her breathing hitched when he pushed her up against the tile wall, supporting her wait with one hand while his other eased down in between them and started rubbing, taking her higher then she already was. "Ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmyGOD! Mmmm, Tyler, please don't stop. Harder," she pleaded with him. He had a deep look of concentration on his face as he started going faster and pushing up with more force. He was very close and could tell from her glazed eyes that she was as well. He couldn't quite get there until she did though, so he said into her hair, "Mmmm, come on Beth. I know how close you are now. You want this. Work for it," and she did. She started moving at different angles with him and wrapped her legs around his waist, loving the feeling of him bottoming out inside her. "Tyler," she whimpered as she started shaking and her walls closed down on him. That sent him over the edge and he emptied inside her. His legs started shaking slightly as he finished. He gently set her down and propped himself against the wall over her. She laughed and picked up her previously forgotten soap, taking a step back from him and closer to the shower head. She lathered herself up and started scrubbing her self clean. Tyler watched as she gently rolled her nipples and squeezed her breasts with one hand, holding her loufa with the other. She eased her way down over her stomach and she saw his erection growing. She slipped her hand in between her legs, spreading them apart and cleansing herself. She rinsed off and he took a step toward her but she put her hands up on his chest. "I think it's time to get out. You know, so I can give you your present. He reached around her and turned the water off.

"What kind of present are we talking about," he asked. She smiled and said "Well, I'll tell you that it's the kind that doesn't involve very much effort on you part." He smirked. "This should be good." She opened the door and grabbed two towels. She gave him one and wrapped the other around herself. "Now, I have to dry my hair really quickly and I'll be able to-, "but she stopped as his eyes turned black and her hair was instantly dry, falling in waves down her back. "DON'T DO THAT! You've ascended and now it starts to affect you!" She sounded angry but he laughed. "Half a seconds worth isn't going to kill me, but you making me wait like this, now that will." She smacked him lightly on the arm and said "Well don't do it again unless absolutely necessary please," she said. He smiled and said "Fine. Now, where should I be sitting when I open this gift?" She walked to the door and said "The bed will be fine," with a smirk. He walked over and pulled the covers back, dropped his towel and climbed under. She smiled at his boldness. "Someone thinks they have something to be proud of, don't they." He dropped his jaw and said "What do you mean I think. Please, I know I have something to be proud of, and I know you think about it alllll the time." She scoffed. "Jeez, you sound just like Reid," she said as she walked to her closet. He smirked and propped up on her pillows with his hands behind his head. She just smiled and shut her closet door. She opened her top drawer and dug in the very back at the bottom and pulled out a pink bag. She opened it and pulled the garment out. She looked at it for a minute, then took the tags off and then pulled it on. After she had it on and comfortable, she tucked two strips of black material into her top. She then opened her bottom drawer, which was packed with make-up products, throwing on some eyeliner, mascara and a light shade of lip-gloss. She tousled her hair a bit. After that, she went to a row of shoes beneath her denim stuff. She picked out some pretty black heels and pulled them on. She walked around for a minute and heard Tyler call softly, all arrogance gone now, "Beth, you ok?" She yelled back "Ummm… yeah just a minute." Now that she was faced with actually having to do this, she was nervous. She felt like she might be sick. She took a couple of deep breaths and said "Close your eyes," then cracked the closet door. "Alright, they're closed," he said and they were. She walked over to the windows and pulled the curtains and blinds, dimming the light in the room. She then turned walked over to the light switch and turned the lights on to dim. The room was bathed in a soft glow. She locked the door, and then she walked over to the bed and drew the curtains on the sides and went to stand at the foot.

She took a deep breath, put her hands on her hips, shook her hair out of her face, and then she said in a low voice, "Tyler, open your eyes." When he saw her, his breathing hitched. "Beth, you, you look, you, wow," he stammered out. She blushed and smiled. "You really like it," she asked looking at the ground. He smiled and said "Oh yes." She looked up and gave a shy smile. "Well, Happy Birthday." She walked up to him and said, "I want to try something" and she pulled out the strips of black material. "But you're going to have to trust me." He looked at her with suspicion. "Okaaay…" She smiled again and said, "Give me your hands." He complied and she tied them together with one piece of cloth. She then tied that cloth to her head board and moved on to his legs, pulling the covers back as she went. She blushed as she saw he was already erect and standing at attention. She walked up to her night stand and pulled out a bottle of body oil. She poured some in her hands and rubbed them together to warm it. She then proceeded to rub the oil onto his skin and massage his muscled arms and shoulders. She paid special attention to his biceps and he smiled. "What is it with you and my arms?" She looked up, red in the face. "What do you mean?" He answered "Well, in the shower you were nurturing them and you are now, and I just… I don't know. It doesn't bother me; it's just something I noticed." She sat straight up for a minute, thinking then finally answered. "I don't know why. It's just a think I like. I guess it's just where your muscles are most prominent. She laughed then straddled his stomach. She had to scoot up to reach his mouth. He felt she was moist and he wanted to die. It felt so good. She attached her lips to his and then pulled away. He looked startled. "Now, time for your real present Baby Boy," she said, making it sound almost dirty, with a look of mischievousness in her eyes. She could feel him poking her from behind and she smiled. She inched lower so she was squarely on him. She pushed her hips down to tease him. She was starting to get wetter now but she ignored that as he was lifting and trying to grind into her. She slid down some more so her mouth was even with his very prominent member. She smiled at him and quickly took him in her mouth, using her hands for the extra. He moaned as she started licking him all over. As if of their own will, his hands started pulling at their bindings. He looked her in the eyes and said "Has anyone ever told you how good, ahh… how good you are at this?"

Still surrounding him, she chuckled, creating a new feeling in him. She had never laughed during sex, and this was making him go nuts. She sat up and said "No, you're the only one I've ever done this to." He looked at her skeptically. She was too good to not have had any practice other than him. She just nodded and continued hitting all the right places. When he was close, as if on their own, his legs wrapped around her, pulling her closer. She chuckled again and that almost sent him over the edge. "Beth, I'm fixing to… dammit Beth, I'm fixing to… oh God, I'm gonna cum." She scraped her teeth along his length and he let it go. She drank it all like she was dying of thirst. He went weak against his restraints. She looked up in surprise. She crawled up his body and he grunted when she accidentally rubbed over his very sensitive area. He opened his eyes and she smiled at him. She placed light kisses all over his chest, throat, and face.

When she reached his lips he grinned. He had been planning to just use and get his hands out, but now a better idea hit him. He looked up at her and she gasped. His eyes were pitch black. At first, she thought he was mad at her, but then he smiled, and they both disappeared for a second.

When they reappeared, Beth was the one tied to the bed and Tyler was the one on top. She looked indignantly at him but he just looked at her with teasing in his eyes. "Could you really not see that one coming Beth. I've told you before that I love being on top," he whispered huskily to her.

"Tyler Simms, let me out of these right now." He knew she was pissed.

"I don't think I will. I think I'll let you struggle for a while."

"Tyler, I hate you. Now let me out." She didn't really hate him, but she was mad her plan had back fired, and they both knew it.

"Now Beth that is not a nice thing to say. Did I say I hated you when I was tied? No I didn't. Now just lay there and enjoy this." He moved to take the shorts of her outfit off, but she tried to knee him in the groin. He dodged it and laughed. His eyes went black for a second and two strips of material appeared. . He got off the bed and made his way to her feet. He tried to undo the straps of her shoes but she started kicking. He just laughed. He took one of her calves in his strong hand and brought it down to the foot board and tied it down. She pulled her other one back, but he ran his fingers gently over her thigh and she jumped, but settled down. He tied her foot down and sat on the edge of the bed. "Just relax Beth, you're fine." He ran his hands up and down her legs. When he reached her foot again, he eased her shoe off. He dropped it on the floor and started to rub the angry red spots that were appearing after just ten minutes of wearing them. His hands were gentle and soothing. She relaxed slightly as he did the same to the other foot. Then he started rubbing her calves with both hands, slowly making his way up her leg. She tensed up and tried to pull away. "Beth, you'll be fine. I promise. But, to steal your words, with slight revisions, 'Beth, I'm going to ride you. So hard you won't know what happened, and you will stay here for me.' He came to rest at the space between her legs and he smiled.

"No, I don't want this," she cried, trying to clench her thighs together

"Oh, I think you do. I can smell it from here. I can see it in your eyes. And I felt it when you were on top of me. It felt so damn good, especially knowing it was just for me." He slowly ran his hands over her stomach, making his way once again to her shorts. "These are very sexy. I like them," he said. "But I hate this part so..." His eyes went black. "I'll skip it," and she was completely naked, her outfit landing with a soft thud beside the bed. He groaned at the sight of her bare assets. "I think I'm going to go on a power trip here." He bent down and spread her thighs as wide as they could go while her legs were restrained as they were. She fought as best she could, but he was stronger. She so badly wanted there to be nothing there, but no such luck. Instead, she was soaked. She loved him being dominant over her like he was. But she was still mad that she had ended up this way when she had started out in charge. He bent down and breathed his cool breath on her. She groaned and shifted uncomfortably.

"No, stop it, I don't want you to." She didn't know if she was talking to Tyler or her Benedict Arnold body. Her nipples were painfully tight and she was sure she was soaking the blanket beneath her. He dipped his head and licked her a few times. "Mmmm… you are so good," he said with lust filled eyes locked on hers. He went back down, but didn't touch her. She was in an extremely uncomfortable situation and she wanted any kind of release she could have. He looked her in the eyes and said "Look at me Beth." When she didn't, he pinched her clit between his thumb and forefinger, rubbing it between the two of them. She gasped and looked at him. He calmly said, "Do you want this, and don't lie to me." She wanted so badly to say no but she couldn't. She just barely nodded her head yes. He rolled her clit between his fingers again. "Yes, yes, I want it," she breathed out as she bucked her hips forward. "Good," he said as he dipped his head again. He began sucking on her clit as he snaked one hand into her opening while the other held her in place as she started moving again, as he knew she would. She started mumbling odd half phrases as he sped up. "So close," she said as she started shuddering. And he stopped. "Say what you want me to do Beth," Tyler said in a husky voice. He was about ready to go himself just from watching her as she glowed from her euphoria, toes curling into her blankets and making throaty sounds. She said "I want you to fill me up, but with your hand. I want your cock buried all the way in me and I want you to pound me until you can't anymore." He stared for a second at her bluntness, and then smiled. "As you wish." He inched his way up her body and stopped at her entrance, propping himself up with his arms and caressing her face. He saw sweat beads forming at her hair line and she was flushed. His eyes went black, and all the bindings were gone. He gently kissed her as he eased in. She whimpered at the feeling since she was so close. He started slowly, but then quickly sped up. She was writhing beneath him, her hands locking behind him as she pulled him closer, all anger gone. He spread her legs open as wide as they'd go and she was lifting to meet his thrusts. "Tyler, I'm fixing to… oh I'm fixing to," she started but didn't get to finish as he came into her one more time, making her shake and release. That finished Tyler off, who collapsed onto Beth. He rolled to the side and wrapped her in his arms. She was breathing heavily and he stroked her hair. She whispered "Happy birthday," as she started to fall asleep in against him. He chuckled and said "Thank you. That was definitely the best birthday gift I've ever gotten." Her eyes closed just as she heard a crash from downstairs. She groaned. "God dammit." She started to get up but Tyler said "Beth, just let them leave. Have you ever had a party before?" She shook her head no and he laughed. "Well don't worry, everyone will clear out so they don't have to help clean and to get away from whoever the hell they shouldn't have but did fall asleep with." She sounded skeptical as she said "Are you sure I don't need to go down there and do something?" He pulled her closer to him. "Just stay here with me and I swear, they'll all be gone before you wake up. Now sleep my deviant, beautiful, little sex machine." She mumbled "And don't you forget it," as she rolled over to face him. Her eyes were already closing as he whispered "I love you.

Beth came back to the present with a bit of a blush. "Oh, yeah, I remember your birthday present, but that turned out being just as much for me as for you." He reached over and ran his fingers through her hair. "All the same, I am going to get you something. Besides, if you make me cancel tomorrow, Kate, Sarah, and Steph will all come after me with a vengeance," he said absentmindedly. He seemed to realize he made a mistake as she turned to face him quickly. "So they know what it is," she inquired. "I didn't say that," he said a little too fast. "They so do," Beth said as she made a move to pull out her cell phone. He put his hand on top of hers. "Please don't ruin this for me. I am actually excited about this." He looked up at her through his lashes and she sighed as she dropped her cell phone back in her bag. "Ok, I don't care if you get me anything, but don't spend a lot of money on whatever it is please." He laughed as they made their way back to Spencer. "Oh of course not. But you know, I've always set my own standards for 'a lot' so don't beat me if I show up with something you think is too expensive." She started to protest. "Besides," he said, taking her hand in his. "It's my money and I want to spend it on you." He kissed her hand and rubbed circles on it with his thumb. She leaned up against his shoulder and said, "I love you so much." He smiled down at her. "Oh, I know. Who wouldn't love me?" She playfully shoved him, but she knew he wasn't serious. However, he was right. There was no way that anyone who met him couldn't love him. She kissed him on the arm and asked, "So, would you rather have a boy or a girl?" He thought about it then looked down at her wide eyes. "I think a-". The horn was blaring. The car had come out of nowhere. Tyler swerved, heading off the road and into the ditch. Everything seemed too slow down for him. His eyes flashed. He wasn't thinking about himself. The only things going through his mind were 'Beth. Babies. Beth. Babies.' Then he closed his eyes and squeezed Beth's hand. He felt the car roll. He heard Beth cry out in panic. Eyes still black, he wrapped a shield of sorts around her. A tear rolled down his cheek but he was still relatively calm as the top of the hummer hit and the windshield shattered.

Hey. Random twist. Just felt like throwing that in there. Sorry I haven't written in so long. Just had a CRAZY year and it's really just settling down. Anyways, hope you like it. Please review and let me know what you think.
