"Wake up princess, we leave in an hour," Miles says shaking Fallon. She sits up and tiredly rubs her eyes.

"Why are we leaving at midnight?" She asks looking at the alarm clock.

"Because that's when the jet is available." She just nods at his response.

"Hey, Fallon." She looks over at him.

"I love you. Love love?" He adds with a smile. She pretends to pout at the mocking.

"Yes, I love you too. Love love." She speaks. They finish gathering everything in comfortable silence.

The hour flies by and before they know it, they are in the car on the way to the airport. Fallon lays her head on Miles's shoulder still tired.

"What changed?" She asks him out of nowhere.

"With us. You were so cold and rude." She adds.

"See the gun on you. It made me realize I can't live without you. I love you with everything in me."

"Love love." She says back with a smile. They get to the airstrip and quickly get on the airplane out of the chilly night breeze.

She wraps the fuzzy blanket around her and snuggles into it. Somehow still tired she lets out a yawn.

"Let's go to bed," Miles suggests leading her through the big jet.

They stop in front of a bedroom and he opens the door. They walk in and crash on the bed.

"I'm not tired anymore," Fallon announces sitting up.

"Well, what do you want to do?" He asks.

"I have an idea." She says in a flirtatious tone.

"Let's join the the-mile-high club." She adds.

So that's what they did.

Fallon wakes up to Miles shaking her.

"Come on princess, we're home." He explains. She lazily gets up and grabs his hand. He leads her off the plane and into the waiting car.

"Wow, you're really tired." He says with a smirk.

"Strenuous activity does that to some people." She snaps after rolling her eyes.

She thinks about the previous night's activities. Such an intimate act. She was glad Miles was her first.

"I miss Remy." She says breaking the silence.

"I'm sorry I made you leave her at home." He says with soft eyes.

"No, it's fine, it was a good idea."

"What happened to her exactly?"

"She had some heart problem." She whispers just loud enough for him to hear. The rest of the ride is in silence.

"Can we talk to my dad then head to your house?" Fallon asks Miles. He agrees and they head towards her house.

After awhile they pull up to Fallon's house. Due to the time change, it's 7:00 A.M.

"Dad?" She calls as she walks into the house dragging Miles behind her.

"In here." He yells from the dining room. They walk hand in hand. Her dad raises his eyebrows.

"Oh yeah, we're in love." She says casually causing Miles to smirk. Her dad stares at him.

"Well, I'm happy for you. Don't you think it's kind of sudden?" He asks Miles and Fallon.

"You didn't feel that way when you all but forced us to get married," Fallon replies sarcastically with a hint of anger.

"Which reminds me, we're stepping down. We no longer want to be royalty." She says casually with a smile. He looks at them with wide eyes.
