A month has passed since Aiden and Sophia had officially declared to be together. They've been spending more time together after work, they would go home to each other's apartments, where they would cuddle, watch TV, movies, or just dine together. They would trade spending time in each other's place depending on what they were doing.

Aiden was taking Sophia on a special trip, the first one they're going to after they became a couple. When she came out dressed in one of the dresses Mrs. Cooper gave her, Aiden told her to change.

"What's wrong with my attire? If we're going somewhere classy, I want to fit it," she stated.

"Sunshine, just wear something plain, like what I'm wearing, jeans and tennis shoes will do. We're going to walk around a lot, so I don't think you'd want your feet to hurt," he said as he winked at her.

Sophia changed into a white shirt and blue jeans. But instead of tennis shoes, she wore her beige sandals to make her still look a little dressed up. She also traded her makeup for a simple ponytail. If they were walking around, she did not want her makeup melting off her face.

"Now, that's better. Let's go," Aiden smiled as he held her hand.

It took them two hours to reach the special place Aiden kept secret from her, but she knew right away where they were when she saw the strawberry logo outside the farm.

"We're in a strawberry field? Why?" she asked, confused.

"I thought it would be a nice change of scenery, so I arranged for us to go strawberry picking. Do you like it?" he asked.

Memories of her parents picking strawberries on their farm came rushing back. She remembered running in the fields as they gathered the freshly picked fruits and vegetables. Those were very happy times she loved remembering. She nodded enthusiastically.

The farmworkers gave them empty pails and gloves they could use to pick strawberries.

"These are good right?" Sophia turned and asked Aiden, pointing to one that looked ripe enough.

"They're ripe, but they're too small, they'll get crushed under the pail. You want the big plump ones like the ones in the next group.

After an hour of bending and picking fruit under the glorious morning sun, Sophia noticed that Aiden picked bigger strawberries than she did.

"Hey, why do yours look better than mine? I think they're more delicious, let me taste one," she said as she grabbed one from his pail.

Her soft pink lips wrapping around the big juicy strawberry gave Aiden ideas that heated his blood.

"Hmmm… these are so fresh and tasty, you want some?" Sophia offered him half of her fruit. Setting the half-eaten strawberry in front of his mouth.

But Aiden had other ideas. He grabbed her waist and dragged her into his arms, "Let me taste," he said as he took her lips, savoring the taste of the sweet strawberry that still lingered there.

"Hmm… hmmm…," Sophia moaned as Aiden deepened their kiss, her hands wrapping around his neck, their fruits forgotten.

"Aiden, somebody might see us," she said as he started kissing her neck, his fingers trailing under her shirt, touching her bare skin.

"I told the management to give us privacy, we have the whole place to ourselves. So don't worry, nobody will see us," Aiden tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and lovingly stroked her cheek after he kissed her thoroughly and let her go.

They were having lunch at the resort, inside one of the private cabanas Aiden had rented for the day. The Aristocratic heirs shied away from dining in public areas, keeping to themselves to maintain their privacy.

"We can go visit the tourist spots in the area after we have lunch," Aiden remarked, to let her know that their date was far from over.

"Sure, it's nice to sit inside after being under the sun. Let's stay here for a while," She replied. Who knew that picking strawberries were going to be a strenuous activity. Her clothes had become dusty and grimy being out in the fields, so Sophia decided to take a shower, knowing that the resorts usually provided extra clothing just in case the guests did not bring any. She did not care if she went home with a shirt that carried the resort's logo, as long as she was clean.

But she was dumbfounded when she opened the package, and instead of an ordinary shirt and lounge pants, she found sleepwear, very sexy sleepwear that left nothing to the imagination. The resort was a well-known destination for honeymooners that wanted to spend a few days away from the city, so they made sure that each cabana was secluded, available only to the people renting them out, so they could have their privacy. And as a bonus for the couple, they left them a gift.

This tiny thing in her hands did not even look like it had enough fabric to cover the parts that needed to be covered. She's only seen these kinds of sleepwear in magazines or brochures, and she was never brave enough to try them. The lacy wine-colored halter top barely reached her midriff, and the shorts were so tiny, they looked like underwear.

She was thinking of ditching the attire and just wearing her dirty, grimy clothes back when Aiden knocked on the bedroom door.

He was getting concerned that Sophia had been in the bedroom for a long time, the sun was slowly coming down the horizon, and they were missing out on their sightseeing. The day was wasting away, and he wanted them to spend as much time together, having fun around town.

"Sophia, are you ready?" He asked when she didn't answer when he knocked the first time.

"Aiden, I changed my mind. I don't think I can walk anymore," she tried to make an excuse from her side of the door.

"Why what happened? Are you okay?" he asked, concern lacing his words.

"No, I think I just want to head to bed," she lied.

Aiden felt something was amiss, "Did you get sick? Open the door. I want to see you," he commanded.

Sophia peeked out the door, "Uhm.. I think the sun was too hot, I felt a little dizzy earlier. I'm okay now," she tried to close the door to keep him out.

But Aiden knew she was hiding something, so he wedged his way into the small opening of the door, pushing her back into the room, exposing her attire. He was shocked to see her wearing so little. The straps on her top were so thin, they looked like they barely held it up. And the lace did not look like it was covering anything. With her creamy white skin on full display, Aiden's body burned with desire. She tried so hard to shield parts of her body, but it was no use.

"I… I didn't have anything else to wear. The resort had these…," but her explanation was lost on him. His eyes busily gawking at her almost naked body.

"Aiden, please leave!" she commanded.

He smirked.
