Aleks' POV

Three and a half months have passed and everything was pretty much the same. Iona would come over almost every night and do homework, which would consist of makeout sessions on the couch and the farthest I've gotten were my hands roaming her body under her shirt because by the time I got there it would be time for me to take her home.
She had only spent the night two more times because we were both up late studying for her finals once and then the other she just didn't want to go home. Both times she stayed with me on the couch instead of sleeping in my bed. It was a pretty big couch.
I had been to her house a couple times when Jim and Maria had taken the kids with them so the house had been empty. Those weekends though had mainly been when we would go hours away and go out in a different town and go on dates in public, since no one knew us.

It was spring break and I was on my way to picking Iona up for a surprise vacation. As I pull into her driveway there is a another car. I park the car and go into the house. Iona greets me at the door. "Who else is here? I thought you said everyone was gone." I ask her leaning down and kissing her.
"My momma," She replied was an uncertain look in her eyes. I follow her into the living room where the lady that answered the door for me months ago sits in a rocking chair. "Momma this is Aleks, Aleks this is my momma Carol," she says looking at the ground.
Carol speaks, "I believe we've met," she says smiling. I just smile back.
"Momma we'll be upstairs if you need me," Iona turns to the stairs. I follow her.
"Leave the door unlocked!" Carol shouts after us. Once we are upstairs I sit on her bed and pull her down with me me. She settles in between my legs and rests her back on my chest. I wrap my arms around her stomach. "So what is it that you so badly had to tell me?" She asks me.
"Well in about three hours we have a plane to catch," She turns half way around.
"What! To where?" she asks excitedly.
"Wyoming!" I reply. She shrieks and turns around all the way and straddles my hips.
"Oh My Gosh!" She grabs my face and kisses me. I laugh on her mouth and kiss her back. "How long?" she ask after one last kiss.
"Four nights and five days," I reply kissing her again.
"Four nights?" She raises her eyebrows up and down. "How fun!" She says with a smirk on her face. She jumps off of me and starts to throw clothes on the the ground. "What should I pack? What are we going to be doing?" She asks frantically.
"Pack your jeans and boots. We are going riding,"

Five hours later we are in Wyoming. It had been difficult getting past Iona's mom but after convincing her that nothing was going to happen she let us go. But I don't really think Iona convinced me that nothing was going to happen because after she questioned me about the four nights and raised her eyebrows up and down I had a feeling we would be doing anything but nothing.

Iona's POV

We are in the hotel and Aleks is checking in in the lobby. I hear the

lobbyist say "Couples full suite." Cool. That means we get a room with its own bathroom, own bedroom, little kitchen and little living room. This trip had probably cost him a lot. I do know though how much Aleks like to be in public with me so he probably really doesn't care how much it cost.
Aleks gets the room keys and heads towards the elevator. I follow him with my suitcase. When we get to the suite, it is breathtaking. There was a balcony that overlooks the mountains. The bedroom had a king sized bed with rose petals all over the white bedspread. Very romantic.
It was six o'clock in the afternoon so we wouldn't go riding but we were going to go out to dinner and then walk around town. I go into our room and change while Aleks is taking shower. I change into a sundress and put my cowgirl boots on with it. Aleks walks into the room with his towel around his waist and so I go into the bathroom. I straighten my hair and apply some mascara and powder foundation. I walk into the living room and watch tv till Aleks is ready. He walks out of the room wearing khaki shorts and a Nike tank top and sandles. He looked good in anything. It was a warm spring night in Wyoming. After dinner we walked hand in hand on the sidewalks of the town and ventured in and out of stores. Every so often girls would walk past and whisper and giggle when they walked past us. Boy did I have the hottest boyfriend ever and everybody else thought so too. Aleks would pretend he didn't notice but I knew he did. Every time girls did that he would just smile to himself. He is so smug and full of himself. He knows just how hot he is. His smile would fade when boys did the same thing to me. He would pull me closer to him or slip his arm around my waist when boys looked at me for too long.
