Waking up this morning was a little hard, knowing I only had a couple hours of sleep. But I found enough energy to at least get out of bed. I yawned as I went to the bathroom to clean up.

I came out of the bathroom to put on my clothes about a half an hour later. I put on my traditional white blouse, with my black skirt for work. I checked to see if I was completely set. I was ready to go, so I headed out my apartment, to my car, and drove to the asylum.

"Hey Y/N." My friend, Danny, said walking from behind the desk. We met here at the asylum when I first started working here, and we became friends ever since. Danny was the receptionist of the asylum.

"Hey Danny. Back from vacation I see. How was it?" I asked, walking to my office as he followed.

"Actually it was really good. You should visit Las Vegas sometime. Waste your money on slot machines and stuff you know." He chuckled.

"Yeah, I'd like to pass on that. I need all the money I can get at this point. Taxes are killing me." I set a folder on my desk, and put my coat and purse on the rack.

"You too? Good to know that I'm not the only one who's getting kicked around by that." Danny crossed his arms.

"Geez." I chuckled, as a nurse came in with more papers.

"More patients doc, and Scarecrow's waiting in room two this time." She said, as I nodded.

"Ok..." I said, as she left. I sighed at the amount of papers that crowded my desk.

"Well, I'll leave you then. Have fun." Danny smiled, walking out the room.

"Yeah, leave me when the work start coming!" I shouted, laughing.

"Still love you!" He shouted back, as a smile appeared on my face.

Time skip...

I took care of all the paper work, and my patient. Scarecrow is getting a little better, but he's still kind of holding on to his ways. Hopefully, the time spent working with him will break that.

It was around six o'clock when I ended my report on his progress. Just as I closed my laptop, I heard a knock on my office door.

"Come in." I said. I looked up, and Peter came walking in.

"Hey..." He began.

"Oh hi, what's up?"

"The date was today, you forgot?" He chuckled.

"Oh yeah." I said a little embarrassed. "I'm sorry I guess I did. Work was keeping me a little busy."

"It's ok. You free now?"

"Yeah, I'm free. I just finished my report, and stuff."

"Oh ok then... well wanna leave now or--"

"Sure, now is good." I stood up, smiling. He smiled back, as I grabbed my purse and coat. I headed out with Peter to his car.

He drove me to a very nice romantic place called 'Red Fox', and led me to our reserved table.

"After you Ms. Y/N." He motioned for me to go first. I smiled.

"Why thank you Mr. Holt." He winked.

We sat down, and look at the menu; ordering what we both wanted to try. Small talk started, and we talked about anything; life, funny memories from our childhood. This date was actually going better then expected. I think I was actually growing a liking for him.

Eventually, the dinner date was over, and Peter decided to take me to the beach. It was no Miami beach, but it was enough. He parked his car on the sand, and we walked out to sit on the nearby bench to watch the water under the moonlight.

"This is beautiful." I said, smiling.

"Yeah it is. I come down here alot. It's even more beautiful when the sun sets." He wrapped his arm around me.

"I bet it is. I would love to see it." I rested my head on his shoulder.

"Maybe one day I'll bring you here again so you could." He smiled. I stood up, and took my shoes off; feeling my toes between the sand, as the slight wind blew my hair.

"Hey where you going?" Peter chuckled, following me as I walked.

"Walking along the beach silly, come on." I said, extending my hand. He reached to grab it but I pulled my hand back, and ran down the beach.

"Hey!" Peter shouted, running after me. We laughed as he continued to chase me down the beach. I felt strong arms wrap around my waist, as I was pulled back.

Peter lost his footing, and he fell on his back, as I landed on top of him. My laughing died down a little when I realized my body was so close to his.

I cleared my throat, as our eyes locked on each other.

"I should--"

"Wait, don't leave." He said, placing his hand on my cheek. His hazel eyes never left mine. I felt butterflies in my stomach, when he touched me.

The only sound was the waves coming up onto the shore. My breaths were slow, as I felt a hand on my waist, pulling my body closer onto his.

Our faces were slowly coming closer. Suddenly his lips crashed on my own, and I was surprised that I didn't want to pull away. Our lips moved in sync, as I straddled him. He sat up not breaking the kiss, as I ran my hand through his fluffy brown hair.

The kiss had to come to an end, as we caught our breath. I looked at him, as he smiled at me.

"I've been wanting to do that for a long time..." He said.

I just looked and thought, I never wanted this, but for some reason I feel as though he grew on me. Tonight was the night I think he actually got to me out of all the times we've been out together.

I smiled back, as he picked me up and headed to back to the car. He opened the door, and set me gently in the back seat of his car. His body hovered over mine, as I placed my arms around his neck.

"I never expected this to happen." I said, as he placed a passionate kiss on my lips.

Time skip...

I woke up in a unfamiliar bedroom. I looked over and saw Peter shirtless, sleeping next to me. I placed my hand on my head, and mentally screamed at myself.

What did I do! What am I doing, am I crazy... well yeah. But I never meant to have sex with him! What about J!? I can't give up hope on him. I need to get out of here.

I quickly got out of bed, took his clothes so I had something to wear, and called Danny to get me and take me home.
