"I then smiled gaily, to find the deed so far done."

Elizabeth's POV

"Why Magda..." I start, looking down at the picture she just handed me. "Why?"

"It's adorable," she says proudly and giddily.

Magda woke up before Peter and I did. She was able to grab a camera and snap a picture of us curled up next to each other. She seems oh so very proud of herself.

"It's... my father nor your husband EVER sees this picture."

"When you two love birds get married, only then will I show them."

"Why is everyone so determined that we're going to get married?"

"Would you be so opposed to it?"

"Not important."

"I see."

We hear a thump upstairs in one of the bedrooms. Magda and I look at each other in confusion. We try to decide if we need to investigate. Of course, then I hear Peter yelp... followed by a small giggle.

"Nina..." Magda sighs, shaking her head. "It appears someone has gone into the bedroom to wake up your lover."

It's too early to try to debate that...

"Nina!" Magda begins, walking up the stairs. "Leave Peter in peace."

As she ascends the stairs, I see Erik come from their bedroom, clearly not awake yet. His eyes are tired and his movements are groggy. He looks about as awake as I am.

"What do you plan to do about this Agent Zero?" he asks.
