Carmilla woke up to the sound of her blaring alarm. She internally groaned, regretting her decision to even set an alarm let alone at 7am on a Saturday but with a plan in mind to knock Laura off her feet she couldn't wait to get it started.

The raven haired girl rolled out of her bed, she decided that before she could do anything she needed a cup of hot black coffee. As she made her way over to the kitchen she went over the plan in her head again, she was sure it would put a smile on the younger girls face and that smile literally lit up Carmilla's world.

After making her coffee Carmilla decided to get Laura's TARDIS mug out and get it ready so she could have it when she woke up. With that Carmilla got out a pen and a piece of paper to write Laura a note;

Hi Cupcake,

Just had to go out and run some errands, just need to add hot water to your Tardis mug and you'll have a nice hot cup of hot chocolate!

See you when I get back

P.s Don't make any plans for today!

Carmilla xx

Carmilla then proceeded to drink her coffee as fast as she could, which proved difficult considering it was boiling hot, she wanted to get her plan under way as soon as she possible could.

Once she had managed to drink the remainder of her coffee she ran into her room to get dressed. She threw on the first outfit she could find, which ended up being her leather pants (no surprise) and a random band T-shirt she had.

Carmilla made her way out of the apartment, being careful and shutting the front door quietly in an attempt not to wake the sleeping blond. She really didn't want any texts from Laura asking 'what the frilly hell is going on?' considering she still has a lot to sort out and doesn't need any distractions.

As Laura woke up she stretched out letting a small smile appear on her lips, memories of the night before flooring back in her mind. She was finally and officially Carmilla's girlfriend and Carmilla was officially her Girlfriend.

She sat up and checked her phone;

1 new message! – From Laf

Laura unlocked her phone and read the message;

Good morning tiny gay one! Saw the broody and oh so mysterious one looking pretty stressed out this morning, is everything okay? Haven't seen you in a long time we'll all have to catch up soon. How about tomorrow, 5pm, my place?

Laura let out a small chuckle, she could always rely on Laf to make her smile. Although the Carmilla side of the message made her worry. She sent off a quick text telling Laf that she'd love to come over and she would invite 'the broody and oh so mysterious one' and also check that Carmilla is alright and then made her way out of the room.

She was worried for 2 reasons, the first it was 10:50am on a Saturday and Laf sent the message at 3 hours prior and Carmilla is never up before midday on a week day let alone a weekend. The 2nd reason was the weird things going on recently, like that random guy the other day, or the meeting that made her come home in a huff. Those things didn't go unnoticed by Laura and now she was seriously worried.

That's when Laura saw her Tardis mug and a little note under it, she read it and smiled. So maybe she was over reacting, Carmilla seemed fine and she must have something planned if she couldn't make any plans.

Laura did as Carmilla told her and put on the kettle to boil some water to add to the hot chocolate. Once the kettle was boiled and she was pouring in the hot water she heard the front door open.

"Carm?" Laura said slightly unsure, although no one else had a key so she knew it couldn't be anyone else, she cleared her throat to sound more sure, "Carm is that you?"

The door shut.

"Well I sure hope you weren't expecting anyone else cutie."

Laura face lit up at the sound of her girlfriends voice and she made her way over to wear Carmilla was standing. "Well I wasn't even expecting you to walk through that door until I read that note..."

Carmilla smiles slightly, "I had to go out and do something..." Carmilla said slightly nervously.

Laura reached out for Carmilla's hand and Carmilla took it happily, "so what are we doing today? Your note said I shouldn't make no plans…but I hope you don't mind but Laf invited us around their place and I said yes but if you don't want to I can message them…"

Laura was cut off by Carmilla, "wow, slow down their cupcake. No need to ramble so much." Smirked Carmilla, "Today's plans are a surprise," she lightly squeezed Laura's hand "but I am more than happy to see the two gingers again, as long as I get to spend time with you."

A blush formed on Laura's cheeks, "Who knew, miss dark and mysterious is such a sappy romantic," Carmilla opened her mouth to protest "but I like it, and don't worry your secret is safe with me." Laura says with a wink.

Carmilla pulled Laura close to her which causes Laura's breath to hitch, "I'm glad about that cutie, I really do need to keep up my broody and disinterested vibe…" Carmilla says leaning in slowly closer to Laura.

That's when there was a knock at the door, interrupting whatever was about to happen. Carmilla sighed and let's go of Laura, "you might wanna get that cutie."

Laura sighs in response walking over to the door. When she opened it she was face with Danny.

"Hey Laura.." Danny notices Carmila's death glare "I ...urm …hope I wasn't interrupting anything but I was just passing by and was going to check if your free and wondered if you wanted to grab a coffee?"

Laura smiles slightly at Danny "Thanks for the offer but Carm and I have plans for today, but how about we get that coffee one day after class next week?"

"Sure, sounds good to me!" Danny says enthusiastically. "Anyway I best leave you both to it, have fun." Danny leans down to hug Laura goodbye which Laura reciprocates however Danny is once again met with an intimidating glare from Carmilla, which she does back.

Pulling away Danny put on a big smile, "See ya Hollis."

"Bye Danny." Laura says after her as she left.

Laura shuts the door and turns around to see Carmilla smirking at her. "What?" Laura questions.

Carmilla's smirk grows wider, "Oh nothing, just a coffee date with big red, I hope I don't have to be worried."

Laura rolls her eyes and walks over to her girlfriend "You have nothing at all to be worried about."

"Good" Carmilla smiles "anyway, I have plans for today so go get changed so we can get it all started."

"Yes ma'am" Laura throws a fake salute to Carmilla and heads to her room.

In response Carmilla just shakes her head and Laughs, "You are such a dork."

Carmilla was sprawled out on the sofa waiting for Laura, so far the tiny blond had taken exactly 1 hour and 13 minutes to have a shower, do her makeup and presumably get dressed yet she was nowhere to be seen.

Carmilla had done this in half an hour.

Surely she would be finished soon Carmilla thought to herself. So with that Carmilla walked into her room and got the bunch of roses that were laid on her bed for Laura.

Carmilla made her way over to the front door, and closed it behind her, she wanted this to be like a proper date and this is how it was going to start. Carmilla waited another 5 minutes before knocking on the door, 4 times.

She can hear Laura on the other side shouting that she won't be a minute which just makes Carmilla's smile go even wider. Laura opens the door and they are face to face with each other after 1 hour and 20 minutes of getting ready.

Carmilla is stunned by her girlfriend stood in front of her, she looked, well, absolutely gorgeous. Carmilla was the first to break the silence, "you look, wow."

Laura has a big smile on her face "I could say the same for you."

A small blush formed on Carmilla's cheeks "Thanks but urm... I got you these" Carmilla hands Laura the roses "and I was wondering if you'd like to go out on a date with me, officially as girlfriends?" Carmilla asks timidly.

Somehow Laura's smile goes impossibly wider "Carm, these are beautiful and of course I'd go out on a date as official girlfriends." Laura puts emphasis on the word girlfriends, she likes it a lot.

Carmilla lets out a breath she didn't realise she was holding and smiles "Well go get your stuff cutie, we've got places to go!"

Laura sat in Carmilla's car with a slight buzz. She loved surprises and Carmilla wasn't telling her where they were going but at the same time she was nervous, she didn't know what to expect.

Carmilla was completely focused on the road, turning her now and then to check on Laura whenever their eyes met they both smiled a warm smile at each other.

"Are you sure you can't tell me where we are going?" Laura asks with a slight whine in her voice.

"Mmhmm. I'm positive I can't tell you cupcake. It wouldn't be a surprise then but we we've nearly arrived at part one of the date." Carmilla says eyes still on the road.

"Wait there are parts to this date?" Laura smiles wide and Carmilla nods in response.

After a 45 minute drive they finally arrive at their destination.

"Okay," Carmilla starts, "put this on" Carmilla hands Laura a blind fold "and I will help you out of this car."

"A blind fold? I'm sure I can walk!" Laura says in a high pitched panicked voice.

Carmilla reaches for Laura's hand and squeezes it lightly, "you trust me don't you?"

Laura nods "of course but..."

"Then trust me now, I promise it'll be worth it." While saying this Carmilla takes the blind fold out of Laura's hand.

Once again Laura nods, Carmilla then proceeds to slowly and gently put the blindfold over Laura's eyes. She leans in close to Laura and kisses the tip of her nose; Laura grins in response and whispers "thank you."

Carmilla quickly gets out of the car and rushes over to Laura's side. She opens the door and reaches for Laura's hands "Okay so I've got a hold on you, you just need to get out of the car and not bang you head!"

Laura did as instructed and manages to get out of the car with no bumped head, once she was fully out of the car she clung to Carmilla's side; wanting to be protected.

"I'm right here, and I promise nothing will happen" Carmilla says kissing the top of her head, "but to make things easier you're gonna have to hop on my back."

"But I don't want to hurt you.."

Carmilla cuts Laura off "cupcake, you will not hurt me, have you seen yourself? And anyway, I'm super strong." I'm a vampire after all Carmilla thought to herself.

Carmilla leads Laura's hand to her should and turns around so Carmilla is facing away from Laura and lowers herself down. "Okay so wrap your arms around my neck, but please don't strangle me" Carmilla teases which makes Laura giggle "and I will hold the back of your legs so you don't fall off."

Carmilla makes sure she told Laura everything she was doing to make her more comfortable "finally I will stand up and I'll have a good hold on you." And like she told Laura she stood up with complete ease with Laura clinging onto her.

"You okay up there cupcake?" Carmilla asks turning her head slightly.

Laura smiles slightly, "I'm good, now how long am I going to be up here for?"

Carmilla shut the passenger door where Laura was and made her way over to the trunk to get a picnic back out "Not too long, we are close don't worry." Carmilla says comfortingly while shutting the trunk again.

Carmilla made her way over to their destination, Laura still clinging onto her back "Right, we are here. I will just lower us down and then you just need to put your feet on the ground, take your arms away from around my neck and I will take off your blind fold."

Laura smiles timidly "Okay." She whispers.

Carmilla did exactly what she said she would do and Laura got back safely on the ground without a problem.

After Carmilla dropped her bag on the floor beside them she made her way behind Laura and wrapped her arms around Laura's waist then rested her head on Laura's shoulder, "you can take it off now." Carmilla says in a raspy voice.

Laura slowly reached up to the blindfold, slightly nervous at what she may find but as she took it off and her eyes adjusted to the bright sunlight she wasn't disappointed.

Laura's breath was truly taken away, in front of her was the most magnificent beach she had ever seen.

Either side of them stood too massive cliffs running right to the shores edge, it almost acted as a barrier to separate them from everyone else Laura thought to herself; it did exactly that as they were the only two on the beach.

Luscious golden sand lay untouched in front of them, small waves. The crystal clear waters roll into the shore with such peace.

Carmilla gently squeezes Laura's waist which takes her out of her trance. "Wow...Carm...This is just beautiful!" Laura says enthusiastically.

A small smile forms at Carmilla's mouth, from the lack of response from Laura she had been getting worried, till now.

Laura proceeded to turn around in Carmilla's arms, once face to face Laura wrapped her arms around Carmilla's neck.

It then set in how close they were, the closest they had ever been; Laura held her breath slightly, Carmilla looked truly breath taking.

Carmilla's eyes flicked down to Laura's lips for a slit second but it didn't go unnoticed by the honey blond.

Laura slowly leaned in to Carmilla, giving her chance to pull away but Carmilla did exactly the opposite and closed the gap.
