My shoulders sag in disappointment, but I nod. We walk over to the willow tree and sit down. "Ok, so Katelyn dragged me into town because she wanted to take a look at her wedding dress. She told me that because we were getting married we should at least hold hands and look like we love each other. I obviously hesitated at first, but I did it because I knew she was right and she would throw a hissy fit if I didn't." I said, looking up at Dan. His face was still grim and he had his arms crossed. "You still haven't told me what that kiss was about." He said, in a raspy voice. I sigh, "I was going to go over to explain everything to you, and Katelyn noticed. She kissed me, trying to get you jealous. I swear I would never try to hurt you. I would never play you...I love you." I say, my lip quivering. He was looking off into the distance. "I want to believe you, but people have been saying things around town." Dan says, biting his lip. "Who do you believe more? Me or people around town?" I ask. "I don't know anymore." He mumbles, standing up. "Dan, please. I'm telling you the truth." I say, reaching for him. He steps back, as if I'm dangerous. I look at him, hurt. "How do I know you're telling the truth? How can I trust you?" He asks, tears trickling down his cheek. "I don't know. You're just going to have to take that chance." I admit, wiping away his tears. "When you say you love me, what do you mean?" Dan asks, looking into my eyes. "It means I love everything about you. I love your beautiful brown eyes. How curly your hair gets and how you call it hobbit hair. And I love your dimples and how helpful you are with your mother. How good you are with your sword. How your voice sounds. How graceful you look playing the piano. And I love your laugh, and how your whole face lights up when you're really happy. And how strong you've been even though you've been through so many hard times, and how you treat anything and everyone with kindness. When I say I love you it means I really love you and I want to be with you in your highest and lowest moments. I want to be with you Dan, I love you." I say, a tear falling down my cheek. Dan wiped away my tear. "I love you too, if that means I'll have to blindly trust you. Then I will." He said, smiling.

I smile and bite my lip, and pin him up against the tree. I start to kiss him slowly and passionately. It wasn't like our usual fast sloppy make out sessions, but I liked it. I let go of his hands, and cup his face. His hands snaked around my waist, bringing me in closer. The kiss was filled with love and bliss. I couldn't help but smile into the kiss.

"PHILIP MICHAEL LESTER!" Boomed a voice, coming from my window. Shit.
