"Anyway happy new years."

Ivy lifted her glass and cheers them all. They ordered some sushi, tempura, kimchi fish and some salmon and yellowfin tuna sashimi. Looking at the spread it was indeed lavish and a lot for them to get through but Pierce and Jamie happily ate till there was none left.

​​

Ivy was amused at how these two put away food especially when she was paying. Jamie put his hands up like he was praying.

"More please, this humble reporter needs to be fed."

"Humble... my ass your the leading reporter to nearly all the major events that happen."

"Please."

Both had pleaded so she gave in and they ordered some more of the delicacies. Ivy put down her chopsticks and lifted her bags and gave one to Jamie and one to Pierce. They easily ripped them open.

"Wow thanks, Ivy." Pierce opened his set of kitchen knives.

"Your the best." Jamie opened his new camera lenses.

Her two friends then handed her a card between them.

"We remembered that you liked them."

Ivy opened the card and saw a ticket or should she say three tickets one for each of them to see a band called Counterfeit. She always had fun at there concerts but hadn't seen them in a while. She was overjoyed at the gift and smiled at her friend's thoughtfulness. She phoned them buzzed, seeing the caller ID she rolled her eyes.

"What's up? Are you not busy taking over the world in another city at the moment?."

"How's dinner?."

"Thanks for booking it I'm sure Thomas the spy has told you we are enjoying ourselves." Ivy narrowed her eyes as she looked at Thomas.

"Oh is this the boyfriend let me speak to him, quick." Jamie tried to take the phone.

"I'm still entertaining so I'll catch you later."

"Ivy, I'll pick you up."

She hung up and they continued to celebrate. Chatting and drinking and even Thomas joined in, getting more comfortable with Ivy and her friends. Thomas phone buzzed and he checked it

"Boss is outside."

Looking over at her two best friends leaning against each other in a drunken state she sighed.

"Can I trouble you to help me send these two home? You can drop them both at Jamie's apartment."

"No trouble."

Ivy helped lift Jamie and Thomas had Pierce. Ivy had wanted to settle the bill but Thomas already informed her that Noah had paid for the evening. Ivy was ok with food gifts as everyone has to eat but she refused any other gifts and didn't want anything from Noah.

Jamie had opened his eyes when he was transferred to Aiden. He saw Ivy go to a man, squinting his eyes he saw...Noah Adler. He tried to open his eyes for a better look but he fell asleep again before he could.

Ivy let go of Jamie and went to Noah. Noah kissed her and helped her into his car and then to sit on his lap. Noah kissed Ivy's neck. Aiden returned to the car and put up the divide so he couldn't see them.

Seeing the ticket in her lap along with her phone Noah picked up the ticket.

"You like them?."

"Yes, I am a huge fan of theirs since the beginning. The boys are taking me. You know them?."

"I don't know them but they are signed under my entertainment agency. I can get you VIP ….if you."

Ivy heard him whisper in her ears. What she would have to do to get VIP tickets was it worth it.

They got back to Noah's apartment and taken off their shoes and coats. Noah kissed the back of her neck, which was her weak spot.

"Well?."

"Just tonight." Ivy blushed and looked anywhere but Noah.

Ivy gave in and Noah picked her up and threw her over his shoulder and hit her bottom.

"Ahh."

Noah threw her on the bed and got out his handcuffs. Ivy new he was slightly perverted in the bedroom. Noah licked her beneath him, writhing and squirming.

Five hours later Noah undid her handcuffs and she fell asleep on her stomach, he made a mess out of her and she couldn't even get up to shower.

Noah laughed and went to shower himself. He came back after with a warm wet cloth and cleaned Ivy's sweaty body. He then went to bed hugging his lover. His nights were full of warmth now.
