PLEASE READ: THIS CHAPTER IS BROKEN INTO MORE THAN ONE SECTION. THERE ARE SOME PRICELINGS WHO WOULD PREFER NOT TO READ 'THE DEED'. SO THE FIRST HALF OF THE CHAPTER WILL BE THE ENDING OF THE STORY FOR THOSE PEOPLE. THEY'LL BE ABLE TO SKIP OVER TO THE EPILOGUE WITHOUT MISSING OUT ON THE STORY. FOR FELLOW PRICELINGS JUST CONTINUE TO READ.

I THINK THERE WILL BE THREE PARTS.

A morning of hearing his wife giggling at him had left no doubt in his mind that Anna was finally letting go of her inhibitions. The moment she said 'Good morning' was completely embarrassing... he'd been caught again. He was sure his face resembled the colour of beets as Anna got out of bed and went to the bathroom leaving him in the bed.

If only she wasn't so damn gorgeous! He felt like the luckiest man alive to have her as his wife so what was a little embarrassment... right?

He'd showered after came out of the bathroom and met her downstairs in the kitchen where her father was cooking the traditional birthday breakfast as he had for years. Jovolity resounded throughout the room as plans were made for the day.

Damon sat back and listened to the well versed plans he'd made with Michael come to fruition. She had no idea exactly what was planned and neither did Red.

Having both girls with the same birthday made the celebration a huge affair for them both. He'd accepted that from this day forward their birthday would always be shared by them in one way or another.

"ANNNNNNNNAAAAAAAA!!!!"

Red bounced into the kitchen and threw herself at Anna.

"Happy birthday twin! Now we get to get to go to clubs and get check out all the hot guys!"

Damon raised an eyebrow and pulled Anna from Red and wrapped his arms around her possessively.

"Mine."

A resounding laugh echoed through the room as Red's parents, Ben and his fiancée walked into the room.

Red walked around Anna's chair and pinched him on the cheeks slamming him foe six with the shock.

"Yes yes. She's yours. WE KNOW! God you're aaaaall she talks about!"

Red rolled her eyes while Damon's eyes sparkled and he wore a sudden mile wide grin. Anna blushed and dropped her head moaning out a reproachful "Red".

"Well this breakfast is ready. Who's hungry?" Michael piped up with a wholehearted smile looking around the room.

Damon held on to Anna for a little while longer still with a grin from ear to ear. He couldn't help himself so he bent his head down to the side of her and whispered

"I'm all you ever talk about huh?"

Anna tried to form a coherent sentence but found she was tongue tied as she felt the soft touch of his breath on her neck. She blushed again and found herself crossing her legs from feelings that only her husband had given her.

"Come on you two... eat!"

Veronica smiled at them both and as they stood up to get their breakfast she caught Anna's grateful glance and winked.

Breakfast took place with plans for the day being discussed. All of them knew what Damon had planned for Anna and very deftly sidestepped the subject when Damon said they had an appointment at five thirty.

Anna's protests of dismay were met with a quick admonishment by her father. Red piped in saying that she had things to do for the evening, she was expected to visit her grandmother and aunt who lived an hour away. Michael then said that he had a business meeting so it would just be her and Damon.

Though Anna was sad that it wasn't the birthday she and Red had planned for years she couldn't help but be excited at the thought of being with Damon for the evening on their own... a rare occurence.
