Maybe you should wear clothes to breakfast...
Waking up in the morning was never his favourite thing, but why oh why did Cait have to have what must be the most comfortable bed. It just made getting out of bed even more needlessly difficult. How did she ever wake up with a bed like this?

Vlad was about to just give up, curl back into the covers to cuddle the pretty girl and doze off again, when he remembered he'd intended to give her a heads up on the birthday present early. Only about a third awake, he managed (through mostly-closed eyes and much yawning) to make it to the door, with boxers on. This was after a light kiss, "Be right back." (she was probably asleep though, he figured), and a very close call on just heading to his room wearing nothing. Luckily he'd remembered to at least put on something at last minute, so it'd taken two sleepy trips to the door to get something that simple right.

But he'd managed it mostly, and left the room, rubbing the sleep from his eyes, to head to the boys wing, not looking where he was going or registering who was around at all. Just autopilot.

	Not a way to start a morning. At all. It had pretty much entirely derailed him for the day when he remembered the present thing. Okay so there may be an issue with it given her dad's likely low opinion of him now but...it shouldn't ruin a day, or birthday. So Vlad went to find Cait. Yes, he was dressed this time.

	He laughed at that. "Nope, sadly only a boring fully dressed one." He kissed her cheek and removed his hands from her eyes. "Got a minute?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"As long as you think so," he grinned. "Perfect. Was on my way to do this this morning but...uh unfortunate morning run-in that I'd like to take back derailed that. Your dad may really not like me right now, and there's always a chance some of the rest of your family might not either by proxy...but I already got this way before and breaking out of some ice encasings for you is nothing. So...question is, you free next weekend birthday girl?"

	"Well....I do have to check with my /other/ boyfriend first. I suspect he'll want to take me out too," she teased. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Sometime later under_the_skin 2014-03-03 10:44 pm UTC (link)
	"Lucky me then," he grinned and leaned down to return the kiss. "So does that mean you're free next weekend? ...Preferably all of next weekend?" Cue almost puppy eyes. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He smiled. "You, me, birthday road trip up to the great white north? My french is close to non-existent but...I got you a present" He grinned and pulled out a folded printout from his back pocket. "Night at their famous ice hotel. What do you say?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait launched herself at him, her arms wrapping around his neck. She gave him a deep passionate kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Sure he'd hoped for a good reaction, but this was the best reaction. Vlad had the widest smile on as he caught her and spun her around while returning the kiss. It had definitely been worth saving up for this. After a long moment, "I'll take that as an 'I guess I can make time for it'?" Still the silliest of grins on. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Something like that," she said with an equally goofy grin on her face. "I love you, Silly Man." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Sometime later under_the_skin 2014-03-04 01:39 am UTC (link)
	"Love you too," he grinned, still holding on. "Figured best to give you a heads up on this sort of present. And we can explore the city a little on the other days. Make the birthday a full weekend. You deserve it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The silly grin again. "I can definitely do that," he said, hugging her close and giving her a light kiss. "They do go hardcore when they say 'ice hotel', so all the excuses to keep you warm." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait smiled. "At least we won't have to worry about melting the ice. I got that much covered." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Oh well now that you say that we have to try just to give you something to do," he joked. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I have a feeling that you'll find plenty for me to do and keep me quite occupied." It would be great to get away from the chaos that is the X-Mansion and not have to worry about anything else. They could both use the time away and the fact they'll be with each other was a big bonus. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Well ice castle hotel and new city to explore. And another country to tick off the 'visited' list. Plus, best part, all weekend with you. It'll be fun," he grinned. "Also, it's your birthday weekend so free reign for anything you want to do." Sure, solo weekend trip after that sort of morning run in wouldn't make her dad happy at all, but...he was trying to make her happy, not him, and right now couldn't care less about any negative impressions he might've made on her family. Like he said, what were a few ice encasings to break out of if it was for her?

	Vlad laughed. "Well of course! But doesn't mean what we do can't be fun." He smiled at her and shrugged. "It'll be your birthday, and you're important to me, so I want you to enjoy it. So however I can have you enjoy yourself, I'll do it." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
