A- Amun. When Leah and Benjamin first started spending time together, Amun made it abundantly clear he did not approve. Usually if Amun was against something, Benjamin would stop whatever it was, but not when it came to Leah Clearwater. There were only two known times when the elemental vampire went against the wishes of his sire and the first was when he agreed to fight with the Cullen family against the Volturi. The second time was when his sire demanded he stop seeing the female shape shifter. Even Amun had been stunned when the younger vampire looked him in the eye confidently refused his request.
B- Bezique. "I'm bored." Leah groaned as she paced the small living room in the apartment she and Benjamin shared. Usually when bored she would go for a run, but considering the severity of the storm outside, it wasn't an option this time. "If you don't do something soon then you are going to have an insane girlfriend."
"It's much too late for that." Benjamin teased as he continued to spin the water in Leah's glass round and round with his power. "If you are indeed that bored then I could always teach you how to play bezique."
Her dark eyebrow rose in curiosity. "What's that? Is it some sort of weird vampire thing?"
His smile was brighter than the sun which was ironic considering he happened to be a vampire. "Come with me to the kitchen and I'll show you exactly what it is."
C- Cairo. "Leah, how on earth could you afford tickets to Cairo?" The male vampire was in shock as he held two first class tickets to Cairo Egypt. "Do you have any idea how much these cost?"
The she-wolf rolled her eyes while shaking her head. "Of course I know how much they cost considering I was the one who bought them in the first place and you don't worry how I managed to afford it. I know it's been a long time since you had a birthday, but in case you've forgotten, when someone gives you a gift, the correct response would be saying thank you."
D- Dangers. Leah had to admit that Cairo was a beautiful place. She hadn't expected it enjoy it as much as she was because she figured it to be a sandy wasteland with nothing of interest, but she had been wrong and she stood next to her lover on the balcony connecting to their hotel room, she wasn't afraid to admit it. If it had been anyone else then she wouldn't bother, but it wasn't anyone else with her today, it was Benjamin and she could tell him anything without fear of judgement.
"My father once told me that some of the most beautiful things in the world were the also the most dangerous." Her words were filled with wonderment as she continued to gaze at the scenery all around them. "I didn't get it before, but I think I understand now and he was right."
The elemental vampire nodded with a soft smile as he placed his hand over hers on the railing. "Yes, Cairo is beautiful and deadly at the same time; kind of like you and it's one of the reasons I love it."
E- Egypt. It was no surprise to anybody that when Leah and Benjamin finally tied the knot, they chose to get married in Egypt. Benjamin had suggested they marry in La Push, but it was Leah who ultimately chose where the wedding was held. When asked why she chose Egypt she explained how she didn't want their wedding or lives together from that moment forward, haunted by the past. She wanted a fresh start, something that would belong to them and that was why in the end she had chosen to be married in Egypt.
F- Fobbed. "You totally fobbed your pack brothers." Benjamin was grinning ear from ear. "I and both shocked and proud of the fact my girlfriend is a little cheat, especially when it comes to poker. Come on my little fobber, I am going to take you to the mall or wherever you want to go so you can spend your winnings. I love you my little cheat."
She laughed lightly as she counted her winnings. "Be lucky I love you as well or you would have been the one who was fobbed."
G- Gamophobia. For the past six months Benjamin had been trying to get his girlfriend to marry him and each time he tried she would respond with a firm no. Eventually he figured out why she wouldn't agree and he decided to confront her. "Gamophobia, you have gamophobia and that's why you won't marry me. It's not that you don't love me or want to spend your life with me because you do, but rather you can't because you have a deep rooted fear of marriage. Don't worry, we can get through this together, I have already signed us up for couples therapy."
The female shapeshifter groaned and rolled her eyes. "If you're not careful I am going to develop a case of benja-phobia, a deep seeded annoyance of you."
H- Habanera. "Don't you find it a little odd that the first dance at our wedding is the habanera which happens to be a cuban dance, but our wedding is taking place in Egypt?" Benjamin questioned as she watched Leah perform the seductive dance perfectly.
"Nope." She replied while popping the 'p'. "It makes our wedding unique like us and so I find it perfect."

AN: Hey guys, I am not sure if you know this or not, but my stepfather had a heart attack and almost didn't make it, but he is a fighter and he had surgery and is coming home tomorrow. He was chasing down a shoplifter when it happened and he caught the guy before he was taken to the hospital, that is my dad, stubborn to the core. Like I said, he comes home tomorrow so my posting may be slow for a while because I am going to help mom take care of him when I am not to sick.
