"What's gotten him all excited?" Elliot asks as he was having his late breakfast, watching Aidan run around the house to take sure everything was ok even if they just started living in it the night before.

"(y/n) is coming over." Tom answers, chuckling as he looks at the younger fix his appearance.

"That's so cute! Look at him trying to glam up for her." Emmy grins, the others agreeing with her and they sit up straight when they hear the fence doorbell.

Aidan gasps and rushes for the front door to open the gate, opening up the door and walking outside to see (y/n) waving to him! She jogs over and rushes to hug him as he holds her tight, spinning her around in his arms.

"You're actually here!" she gasps happily as he presses kisses all over her face.

"I missed you so much (y/n)!" he smiles down at her as he sets her back down on her feet, seeing her wearing his necklace above her summer dress that she looked so lovely in.

"How come she hugs him and not us?" Robert pouts as he walks out of the house and she waves at him shyly.

"She's still not used to you guys." The brunette chuckles lightly. "(y/n) needs more time to be comfortable to hug someone new."

"And why wouldn't I hug my boyfriend?" she muses quietly to him, flushing at how strange it felt to say boyfriend.

"Let me show you around the house. Are you hungry?" Aidan asks (y/n) and she shakes her head as she follows him inside.

"Nah, I had something on the train."

"You travelled this early on the train!?"

"It wasn't dangerous Aidan. I'm used to it. There were a lot of people going to work so I wasn't worried. I'm here now aren't I?"

"You are." he smiles warmly at his girl, holding her hand and giving her a tour around the large house.

"Holy shit this house is big... I'm not even going to ask how much it costs cause living in Sydney is expensive already." the brunette chuckles at his girls words, amused at how she was easily fascinated by the three floors of the house and the spiral staircase. "Have you tried sledding down the stairs?" she raises her brow at the mischievous idea.

"I wish but we're Airbnb-ing it so we can't really destroy the place."

"Fair enough!"

He shows her around the living room, the dining room, the kitchen, the large entertainment room, the outside pool with lounges and barbeque, the beach in the distance and finally his room. They enter the room that already had vlogging equipment set up, luggage pushed to the side to try and keep the place clean.

"I see you made yourself at home-" (y/n) stutters when Aidan grabs her waist from behind, pulling her to his chest before pressing kisses against her neck. He groans softly from missing her floral perfume and her sweetness, kissing her skin and holding her tight.

"Too far?" he asks her and she shakes her head, her stomach feeling all fluttery.

"No..." she breathes out shakily as she leans up to tangle her fingers in his hair, tilting her head further for him as he kisses all over her neck. She holds his hand tight that were wrapped around her waist, pulling her as close as possible against his body before turning her around and burying his face against her shoulder.

"You have no idea how much I missed you (y/n)..."

"I really missed you too Aidan..."

"Please tell me you're staying the entire day here?" he asks as he leans back, hoping his girl says yes.

"If it's ok with you. If you're not busy or not working, yes I can stay." she smiles up at him and he beams happily.

"We're just settling in today. Work starts tomorrow so we can do whatever we want today."

"First, let's go downstairs and mingle with your friends and catch-up on everything that I missed with you guys. I think Robert might be onto us being together."

"Sounds good. You're eating something when we get to the kitchen too." Aidan says as he grabs (y/n)'s hand to take her down with him.

"Aidan!"

"You never did tell me why you guys are here in Australia." (y/n) muses as she sits up on the outdoor swing chair, Aidan sitting next to her and pulled her feet to lay over his lap while kicking his own to gently rock the swing. It was a cool night for once, the cold breeze being a tad salty from the ocean but it was welcoming against the heat.

"Well, the paparazzi were all over us back in Toronto that it was making it hard for us to film on set. We were trying to decide whether or not to push through it and continue shooting but all of us were fed up and it was affecting our acting. So I may or may not have suggested we come here instead."

"Why?"

"Well I remember how there were hardly at paparazzi here and I thought we could stay here for a couple months, do mainly the greenscreen scenes and then go back to Toronto to film the geographical location set scenes. No one here bothers us so it was good for the crew but that also means I got to see you in person."

"This whole scheme was just to see me?" the brunette coos as his girl flushes when he nods.

"Why would I pass up the chance to see my girlfriend?" he hums, leaning over to kiss the corner of her lips as he gently squeezes her knees. He peppers kisses down her jaw and her neck, revelling in her slight whimper as he nips against her skin.

"And they don't mind the move?" she breathes out, flustered as he leans back and brushes his fingers against her neck.

"I'm here now aren't I?" he mimics his girl's words back to her and she chuckles, shuffling closer to him as he wraps an arm around her waist. She toyed with the bracelet he wore around his wrist, amused at how many times he had to wrap the chain around before clipping it. "I never took it off. Not once. I didn't want to." he whispers as he leans his chin on top of his girl's head, her smiling against his neck.

"I didn't take yours off either..." she hums out, fiddling with her necklace.

"Stay the night with me..." Aidan whispers, feeling (y/n) go rigid for a second before she relaxes.

"I'll stay the night." she whispers back to him, closing her eyes to lay in his arms as he rocked the swing.

"So where is this all time favourite ice cream store of yours?" Aidan muses as he follows (y/n) to the station while she gets the directions on her phone.

"At Coogee Beach! I went there once and their vapours were amazing! They really pack in the ice cream for a small price too which is by good."

The couple had decided to go on little dates together, finding whatever time they could during the months they had between work so they could spend time together.

"They're vegan too! I made sure." The brunette smiles warmly at his girl, squeezing her hand as they got into their Uber to get to Coogee beach. They took their masks off and settled close to each other, talking about where they wanted to go next and when they could until they arrived at their destination in no time.

"It's packed." Aidan looks around in awe of the large crowd of people going or leaving the beach while others filtered around the stores and bars on the streets. It was strange to see, completely different from his home and he thanks his girl for bringing an umbrella since he wasn't sure how long he was going to survive in this heat.

"It's this way." (Y/n) leads him down the streets, the both of them wearing their disguises and staying in the shade until they stopped at a busy ice cream store. The brunette looked at the different flavours with interest, trying to decide which one he wanted. "Choose whatever you want. My treat." She smiles at him, already deciding on a new York cheesecake ice cream with cheesecake bits and her boyfriend chooses the one he wanted.

"I can pay (y/n)-"

"-you can pay for the next date." She beams at him and he blushes, hugging her from behind as she orders for them both before grabbing the ice cream and passing his to him.

"Holy shit this is good." Aidan blinks in surprise and (y/n) chuckles at his awe.

"Told you." He bumps her shoulder softly with his while rolling his eyes with a smile, the couple walking together along the shops until they were finished with their ice cream and decided to walk along the beach. The sun had started to set when they got to Coogee Beach after work, the couple enjoying the cold breeze that eased the heat as they held hands and talked.

The brunette leans over to brush his girls hair behind her ears to look at her clearly, smiling warmly as she flushes and leans close to him.

"Hey, baby. Are you free?"

"I just got off work so yeah. What about you?"

"I just finished too. Wanna meet up?

"Yeah! Where are you?"

"Close to where you are actually."

"Wait really?"

"Right behind you!" Aidan grins as he scares (y/n), jumping her shoulders and she screams as she turns around and wacks his arm.

"Don't do that!"

"You know I can't help it." He grins as he pinches her cheeks, pulling her away from work now that he had picked her up. "You're too cute." He chuckles as she rolls her eyes but even she can't help but smile at him.

"So where are we going today?" She asks him, putting on the black crop net top over her black tank top before tying up her hair.

"Well, how about we go to an art museum? I saw one by Circular Quay of an exhibition going on."

"Let's go!" The brunette hesitates for a second and his girl picks up on it. "What's wrong?"

"I don't know how to get there. I asked myself river to just drop me off at your work so I could pick you up."

"You're very cute, you know that Aidan?" His girl muses and the tips of his ears turn red as she chuckles, looking up the train times to get to Circular Quay since she's lived here all her life so she knows how to get around. He follows her to the station, them changing trains and platforms until they arrived in front of the museum together. "Thank fuck for the aircon." She groans in relief and he chuckles, grabbing her waist to lead them to the front desk.

Aidan bought the two tickets for him and (y/n), going up to the third floor to see the exhibition. He couldn't help but adore how his girl's eyes widen while she admired the various artworks, letting her wander around as he enjoyed his time with her. He quickly pulls her back by her backpack before she bumped into another couple, her quickly apologising to them.

"You really are lost in your own little world aren't you." He muses as she looks away in embarrassment, noticing how uncomfortable she was getting with her bag so he quickly takes it off her and holds it for her.

"Wait you don't have to-"

"-relax baby. It's not heavy and you should rest." He whispers against her neck, pulling her to his side with his thumb hooked beneath her shirt untucked from her cargo pants to rub her bare waist. "Want me to take pictures of you?" He asks her as they look at the various couples doing just that but she shakes her head with distaste.

"Nah, it's like a peeve of mine for some reason. Like all they do is pose in front of artworks to just post on Instagram. Just enjoy the moment and look around without needing to document everything."

"I couldn't agree with you more baby." The brunette smiles, letting his girl go and walking around with her while he secretly filmed her and took photos of her. He couldn't help it, she looked so adorable admiring the artwork.

"Look! There are tiny people under the platform!" He coos as she crouches down to look at the little people, smiling up at him before covering her face when she realised he was filming her. "Stop...!" She whines out and he puts his phone away.

"You're just too cute (y/n)." Aidan pulls her back up on her feet, the two of them taking their time to go through the entire exhibition even though there wasn't much to see.

"Want to go eat something?" (Y/n) asks him when they leave the museum and he nods. "Let me find a good place." She leads him to a rooftop restaurant where they get seated together underneath a beach umbrella, getting a good view of the Harbourside where ferries dock while they had a little late lunch together.
