Nikolai's POV
I yawned loudly and stretched after waking up from last night's slumber. I glanced over next to me and the other side of the bed was empty.
"Where is he off to now?"
After sliding my feet into my slippers, I headed into the bathroom to freshen up.

"Certainly." Prince spoke into the phone. "I'm excited, you know I can't wait to see. Oh yeah? A lovely sight I know. I'll stop by later, see you soon. Bye."
Who was he talking to?
"Good Morning."
"Baby I didn't know you were up."
"Yeah, I haven't been up too long." I replied. "What have you been up to?"
"Oh, nothing much." He glanced at me quickly as I narrowed my eyes.
"Hm." I grumbled as I stood up.
"Hey wait now, where you off to in all of sudden?"
"I need to go get properly dressed."
"There is nothing wrong with what you have on."
"Prince I'm in a nightie."
"So!" He blurted. "Besides, I like it."
"Ah no, nope! I've got some shopping to do and you have some recording. If we stay like this we won't get anything done."
"Who's complaining?"
"POP!" His hand smacked against my backside.
"Hey! That hurt!"
"You better gone on before I do it again."

"So why are you worrying again?" Marie asked I eyed pieces of jewelry.
"Because it's been happening for days! He's always on the phone lately, whispering about things. And when I question him he looks at me funny."
"Well honey you just can't assume the worst. Do you think it's another woman or something?"
"No." I sighed. "It's just a bit strange that's all. "I just know he's up to something, and whatever that is he's keeping it from me."
"I'm sure it's nothing."
"You're right. Aren't these gorgeous? Mother will love them, just hope I can ship all of the gifts on time."
"What will you and Prince do for Christmas?"
"Well, it won't be like this big extravaganza or such but he and I decided to exchange gifts, have a nice dinner, and of course he'll be sending out cards. But you know he isn't deep into holidays much."
"That's right."
"Speaking of gifts I'll be having to pick up his gift soon. I was wondering what do you get a guy that practically has everything you know?"
