Penelope POV

" why do you keep looking at me?" I asked Dylan as we were driving to the Italian restaurant.
"You look so damn beautiful tonight"
"I know" I smiled
"You're welcome"
"I don't remember saying thank you "
He placed his right hand on my leg and at that moment I felt it. I got butterflies in my stomach and of coarse he knew it when I looked at him he was smirking.
That was the first time in a while I had seen his smile. Usually whenever he looked at me it was like I disgusted him. We use to be best friends at one point but then everything changed. I realized that he was just like any jerk I had known. But my heart still felt the same as much as I tried not to, I still had feelings for him. I just wished everything could go back to normal. Him, me, terry and Ryan could go back to being the best of friends again.
So caught up in my thoughts I hadn't noticed that we had stopped. I turn and saw Dylan starring at me.
"Where are we?"
"At lake tala ( lol I just made that lake up). "But aren't we suppose to be going to meet your parents"
"I changed my mind, I'm not ready for you to meet them just yet"
"Oh okay" I looked out the window.
I heard him open his door but when I turned he wasn't there. A few seconds later he was one opening my door.
"Come with me" was all he said before he grabbed my hand. I followed him onto a pathway. That would eventually lead to lake tala.
Dylan POV
__________________
On the drive to the Resturant I realized I wasn't ready for her to meet my parents just yet. So I decided to take her to the lake instead. We were sitting side by side on the deck swinging our feet in the water.
"Dylan what happened to us?"
It was a mere whisper but I still heard it.
"I've asked myself that so many times princess. I finally found an answer." I sighed " I let my anger in the way of us. Nelope I wanted you so bad but then I saw a pic on your IG with you hugged up with some other guy. It made my blood boiled I wanted to be that other guy so bad. Then I read what you said under the pic. You couldn't wait to spend three months with him touring the world." I looked down at my hands. " I knew at that moment I couldn't compete with that. So I thought that if I made you hate me I wouldn't like you anymore. But truth is peneople I like you more."
she didnt say anything. She just glared out at night sky.
Finally she looked at me and saw tears in her eyes
"You treated me like crap. You made me feel lower then dirt. And now youre saying you care about me. Dylan i wanted you so bad too, I thought we were gonna start dating. But you just got mad. Why didnt you come and just ask me who the guy was?"
"I guess I let my pride get in the way. Im so sorry princess forgive me please."
I reached her and pulled her close to me and held her tightly as I hugged her. Not wanting to let her go.
