Carmilla's POV

I was about to make Danny leave by punching her, but Laura stopped me before I could do any damage. Danny saw the quick movement from me and got closer. LaF stepped in front of her before things could get really out of hand. Laura just stood by my side, gripping my arm really tight. Since I didn't want her to worry that I would do something dangerous, I took her hand and walked back to our table. Danny muttered something, but I didn't want to waste my vampire hearing on a stupid comment out of her mouth.

"Carmilla, you're a fucking coward. You'd rather walk away and not prove that you are stronger than me? I mean, you're not, but nobody will know now since you just walked away," she challenged. Oh hell no, she did not just say that. A growl erupted from me, but Laura gripped my hand and I just kept walking. There's no need to fight her anyway. I'm more superior than Xena, I don't need to fight her to prove it. Perry was headed right for us, so I had to stop when she got in the way.

"Carmilla, I know that you are trying to be a decent person, but could you just get out of the cafe please? You're causing a ruckus. I just don't want my customers to leave because of a fight that you start."

"Perry, hold on. Are you accusing Carm for Danny's behaviour? That is so not called for! Do you have any idea who even started it? Danny did, but since you don't want to have faith that Carmilla didn't start that fight, we'll be happy to leave and not talk to you again. I thought you were better than that, Perry," Laura said while shaking her head. I was also shocked that Perry thought I started it, did she not see a single thing that Danny did? Well, if Laura wants leave I'd be happy to oblige. So we headed for the door and didn't look back. Well, my surprise for this whole day has not been great so far, and I feel bad that I didn't think of Xena being there. Before I could even apologise to her for that disruption, she pushed me against the cafe wall and kissed me. The sudden action caught me by surprise, but I quickly got over the shock and pulled her closer to me.

"I know that you didn't just walk away for me, but I greatly-"

"Hey, I did walk away for you. I planned a whole great day for us and I'm not going to let Xena ruin that. Ever." I looked into her eyes and saw that she was searching for answers in mine. Instead of letting her find something, I quickly pulled her back to me, just to be in these moments awhile longer. The kiss lasted a long time, until Laura backed up and started to ramble.

"The way you handled that whole situation made me proud that you aren't the same Carmilla as before, and I appreciate that. If I'm the cause of this new side of you, then I want to see what else I can do for you. Even if you don't want me to. I just want to see you happy, and can we reschedule that whole perfect surprise day? Only because I have a few things up my sleeve now, and it's my turn to see a smile on that serious face of yours." A small laugh escaped me and I missed her once more. Then whispered, "You can do whatever you'd like."

A shiver ran through her and I chuckled to myself. She quickly recovered from my comment and smiled. Laura grabbed my hand and pulled me away from the cafe and we went into an ally to the right of it. The ally wasn't the destination though. It was what it led to. In front of us was a theatre. Just not your average one. This is just the typical theatre that only Laura would know existed. It consisted of movies on one side of the building and talent shows on the other. I wasn't exactly sure what she was planning, but didn't want to invade her thoughts today. Today I'm an average person that can't read thoughts and enjoys the moment.
