Hey, guess what?

You've fallen into a well, but Ace got distracted by a raccoon and fled off into the night. Boy, it sure is a good thing we have these magical journals! I'll be right there with a rope. Don't worry, Timmy.

[dorkwonder]

We both know the most unbelievable part of that scenario is Ace fleeing into the night.

[secondchances]

Yeah, I've been waiting for you to get stuck in a well.

What's up?

[dorkwonder]

Take a guess.

[secondchances]

Hmm... fascinating book?

[dorkwonder]

Try again.

[secondchances]

Haircut?

[dorkwonder]

More like you and I have been together consecutively for six months. Not only have we managed to be together that long, we are still be in one piece. I think that warrants a celebration.

[secondchances]

Grr, I knew you'd beat me to anniversary stuff. [She knew all along! Six months... that's a long time, in Paradisa, and for them in general.]

Anyway, yes! Anniversary things. I got you something, but what's the plan?

[dorkwonder]

That depends on what you got me. [Teasing.]

[secondchances]

Look at you, being all cute.

[dorkwonder]

I've been known to be that way every now and again.

[secondchances]

More like all the time, my favorite boyfriend ever.

Soooooo. What are we doing, Tim?

[dorkwonder]

That depends. Do you want to go out or have a night in? [If it was anyone else, he would have planned an entire evening out for the two of them. However, whenever he is with Steph they always end up back home after an hour or two...]

[secondchances]

[Stephanie likes going out, but she likes the privacy and comfort of their place, too. Dancing and dinners and dressing up is fun--but PJs and blankets are better.]

Night in. There's even a frozen pizza in the fridge.

[dorkwonder]

Sounds perfect to me. I'll see you in a few minutes.

[secondchances]

I'll have your PJs ready. [As much as she digs Tim in a nice shirt and pants, PJs are the best.]

[dorkwonder]

[Ten minutes later and Tim is poking his head into their room.] I'm here to pickup my PJs.

[secondchances]

[Steph's already in her own, and approaches him to place his in his hands.]

Here you go. Have a nice night.

[dorkwonder]

Thanks. [Leans in to press a kiss against her lips.]

[secondchances]

[No getting out of this kiss anytime soon. Steph slips her arms over Tim's shoulders, body pressing against his. The kiss says someone is definitely getting lucky later tonight.]

[dorkwonder]

[There is a reason Tim didn't protest when she wanted a night in. Clutches onto his pajamas with one hand, allowing him to wrap his arms around her body without dropping them onto the ground.

Once her body is pressed against his, he uses their closeness to increase the intensity of their kiss.]

[secondchances]

[Half a year of this has been nice. Half a year more of it would be ideal, but Steph knows better than to hold her breath. That's pretty negative, though, so she reminds herself to focus on the now. The now, which is a very handsome guy making out with her. Life is good.]

Don't get too carried away.

[She kisses his cheek before going in for a tight hug.]

Thank you for making the past six months amazing.

[Even with the bumps in the road.]

[dorkwonder]

They've been some of the best months of my life. [They've had plenty of trials and tribulations, but their relationship has made enduring all of the hardships thrown their way worth it.]

I can't believe I've been here for seven, going on eight months.

[secondchances]

Yeah, me either. [She keeps expecting him to just be gone, one day. Hooray, more depressing thoughts. Steph kisses his cheek again before pulling back, though her hands rest on his arms.]

C'mon, get comfy.
