Eric's POV:

Just as I was almost finished cooking dinner after I called Nell, my phone buzzed. A text from Nell read, "Hey, I'm leaving now, I'll be home soon :)". I replied by saying, "Okay babe, be safe! Can't wait to see you XD".

I put my phone on the counter, and went into the bedroom to put on my suit. Once it was on, I looked in the mirror and looked at how handsome I looked. "Damn, this suit is workin'!" I thought to myself, before returning to the kitchen to dish up the Fillet Mignon with scalloped potatoes and asparagus with my homemade garlic sauce. I put both plates on the table outside and lit the candle, I turned on each individual tea light on the floor, then ran to the kitchen to grab a bottle of red wine and took it outside with two wine glasses, just as I heard a key start turning in the door.

"Eric baby, I'm home!" I hear a voice shout. Our date night begins.

Nell's POV:

"Eric, baby I'm home!" I shout, as I stepped into our little home. I closed the door behind me and as I turned around, I saw a trail of rose petals in front of me with lit candles. "What the-..." I began confused, as I picked up a small envelope from the table beside the door and read what was on it. "Aww Eric, this is cute, but not again....".

I put my bag on the hook beside me, took my shoes off and followed where the note and the trail led me. I opened the bedroom door to see a navy blue dress laying on the bed waiting for me to put it on, surrounded by rose petals. There was also another note next to it, which I read as well, which told me to put on the dress. As much as I loved this dress, I never wore it because it showed too much skin. But it's alright I guess, only Eric is going to see me show a little more skin than I usually do. I mean, it's not like he hasn't seen everything before, right?

I began to change into the dress and once it was on, I touched up my makeup, before wandering over to the mirror nervously. "Hmm, it's alright, I guess."

I gazed at myself for a moment, before snapping back into reality and walking out of the bedroom. I continued to follow the trail of petals and candles, along with a sweet smell of food. I get to the door to the balcony, where I see my fiancé looking fine as hell in front of me, holding his hand out to take mine, with a big grin on his face.

"Hey beautiful," Eric began.

"Eric, this is.." I started, as I took his hand, but before I could finish my sentence, he span me round like doing the tango, and I fell back in his arms with a squeal.

"You were saying?" He said with a grin, holding me in his arms.

"This is spectacular, my handsome young chap"  I replied, to Eric giving me a sweet kiss on the lips before smiling and lifting me up straight. Eric pulled the chair out in front of me as I took a seat, and began to stare at the view from the balcony.

"Wow, Eric, this is lovely" I said, as he sat down in front of me, and poured me a glass of red wine.

"Anything for my sweetheart, the love of my life... tuck in" Eric said as he picked up his knife and fork and began to eat his food. I started eating my food, when I said, "Mmm, this is so good!" with my mouth half full. We talked for a while and gazed into the sunset, me and Eric glared at each other and shared a small kiss across the dinner table.

Once we had finished our dinner, Eric offered to take in the plates, and he did so. I sat outside smiling, breathing in the cool air breeze and muttered to myself, "Ahh, Eric, why do you do these things"

"Because I love you?" I heard a voice come up behind me, where Eric was holding two bowls of lemon sorbet and coconut meringue, and placed one in front of me with a spoon as he sat in front of me.

"Sorry, I didn't know you were there, this looks wonderful" I said, picking up my spoon and taking a bite. "And this is tasty! Did you make this?"  I asked, before sipping my fifth glass of wine.

"No, don't be sorry, anything for my Nellverine," Eric began, smiling as he said my nickname. "And yes, I made it. Is it bad!? Did I do something? Is there too much sugar?"

"Eric..."

"But how much sugar did I put in- I thought I only put a little bit... huhhh, must be the cream. Hmm. Wait, is the cream out of date!?"

"Eric!" I shouted, cutting him off.

"Yeah?" He looked at me, snapping out of his zone.

"It's delicious, nothing is wrong with it, it's perfect... just like you" I smiled, while eating my dessert. Eric and I chatted a while longer, as it started to get cold outside and the sun had gone down, and the moon was in the sky.

I gazed around and closed my eyes and smiled, wondering how to end this date night....

"It's quite cold, shall we go in?" I asked, rubbing my heel against Eric's leg under the table knowing exactly how to end our romantic evening. We needed to be more, ambiguous.

"Hmm, that sounds like a great idea" Eric replied while biting his lip, picking up the bowls and wine glasses, and taking them to the kitchen where he began washing them up. I blew out the candle and breathed in its sweet honey scent and took it in along with the tablecloth, and put them in the drawers. I lent on the bedroom door frame as Eric finished the washing up, drying his hands with a towel.

"Well, I finished the washing up and w-" Eric began. "What's this, Hell Nell?"

"Oh, it's nothing, I just thought we could end our night with some fun, that's all"

"So you're feeling technical, huh? Huh? I knew it..." Eric winked and laughed, I giggled as he ran towards me and whipped me with the towel. "Heyy!" I screamed, as Eric pushed me into the bedroom, but before he could come in, I locked him out of the room.

"Hey! Nell? What are you doing!? Come on Nell, let me in!" I heard Eric say, knocking in the door and trying to come in.

"Patience my lord" I replied, quickly taking off my dress and switching into a laced navy blue nightgown. I ran to the door, and unlocked it, and laid over the bed as Eric walked in.

Eric's POV:

I opened the bedroom door after Nell locked me out for some reason, to see her laying on the bed with her hands either side, and her left leg crossed over her right.

"Come in.." Nell smirked.

"Damn Nell, you never fail to impress me," I said, biting my lip and walking over to her. I gave her a small kiss on her lips, she grabbed my neck and we toppled onto the bed. She laid underneath me, where I started kissing her neck. Nell tensed up and put her head back and opened her mouth, and I heard her say, "Damn, Beale," in a quiet tone. I knew I'd given her butterflies in her stomach, I loved making her feel like that.

Nell grabbed my shoulders and began to take off my suit, and she pulled my tie off and threw it on the floor. She completely undressed me, as I ran my arms down her chest and unravelled her nightgown. "You should show a lil more skin sometimes Nell" I smirked, and she smiled, where we kissed more for a while longer. Things got heated more quicker than ever, and this magical night ended in the most magical way.
