"Uhh Kelsey?" I heard someone call out. I rolled over and tried to open my eyes.

"Kelsey get up." The person called out again.

I sat up and finally got my eyes to open. Looking around, I realized where I was and I figured out the voice too.

"Do you know what time it is?" Derek said.

"Umm...no." I sleepily said as I grabbed my phone. Looking at the bright screen, I squinted my eyes enough to make out the time.

"Holy shit it's 11:30!" I yelled out as my eyes grew wider. "What happened? Did my alarm not go off?"

"I dunno. Apparently mine didn't go off either."

"Well I guess I'm not going to school today." I shrugged my shoulders and smiled. I really didn't want to go to school anyways. My head was killing me and I was just going through too much drama to deal with school right now.

"Yea me either." He scratched the back of his head and turned around towards the stairs. "Well I guess i'll go wake Justin up."

"Okay." I said as I sat back on the couch. I grabbed my phone and started checking my messages. None were from my parents so I knew that Kristen had made up a good enough excuse.

I continued scrolling and saw that Kristen had texted me.

Kristen: you okay?

I replied back that I was, and that I'd see her after school. As soon as I did that, Derek came down the stairs as Justin followed.

"Okay so I guess ill go get us some breakfast...or lunch." Derek said as he walked over and grabbed the car keys. "Ill be back."

He shut the door behind him and then it was just me and Justin.

Justin walked over and sat down on the couch beside me.

"Hello beautiful." He winked and wrapped his arm around me.

I looked up from my phone and starred into his eyes. Eventually my eyes wondered up to his hair and I busted out laughing.

"What?" He asked.

"You hair!!" I continued laughing as I pulled up the camera on my phone. "I gotta take a picture of this."

"NOOO!" He yelled as he grabbed a pillow and put it over his face. "I know I look horrible."

"No you look really...." I paused, trying to find the right word to describe his hair. It was spiked up in all different directions. "Cute. It looks really cute."

He put the pillow down and started blushing. "Well thank you."

"Your welcome." I said.

We made contact with each other and my heart immediately started pounding. He looked down my face and eventually made his way to my lips. I did the same to him and pretty soon our heads started leaning towards each others. Leaning further in, our lips made contact and it felt just as amazing and it did the first time.

Knowing what I was getting into, I quickly pulled my head away.

"Did I do something wrong?" He asked as he looked at me with sad eyes.

"No Justin it's just that.." I looked away, not really wanting to explain.

"Tell me." He grabbed my chin gently and pulled my eyes back up to his.

"Well it's just that I'm not really sure what's going on between us, and I don't wanna do anything else until I know." I looked away again. "I dunno"

The room was silent for a few moments before he spoke up. "Well do you like me?"

I looked up at him and he looked at the floor. His face turned red as if he was embarrassed.

"Kinda." I replied. "Do you like me?"

"Kinda."

"Soo what does that mean?" I asked, still confused.

"Do you....wanna go out maybe?" He awkwardly asked.

"Umm...yea kinda but I dunno." I looked up at him again. All of a sudden, I leaned in and kissed his lips and he kissed me back. I was so confused because I didn't really know if I wanted to be with him or not. Apparently I did because I kept kissing him.

All of a sudden, Derek busted through the door and we immediately pulled back.

"I just went up the Wendy's and grabbed some burgers." Derek said as he went into the kitchen.

Me and Justin looked at each other as we decided what we were gonna do next.

"Do we tell Derek?" I whispered.

"I don't know yet."

"Well why wouldn't we?"

"I dunno, I just think I want it to stay a secret for now until we really know if we wanna date. If that's okay with you."

"Yea I guess." I said as I started to stand up. Derek stood up too, and followed me to the kitchen.

We walked in and Derek had all of the burgers and fries out on the counter. He grabbed his and went into the living room. Me and Justin walked over to grab ours.

"You sure you don't wanna tell him?" I asked again.

"Yea. At least not right now."

"Okay. Well i'll just focus trying to figure out why you guys are bad asses." I smirked, grabbed my food, and walked towards the living room.

Justin grabbed my arm and pulled me back. He had a worried look on his face as if he were scared that I would actually find out the secret. His look quickly faded though, and was replace with a smile.

"Not so fast. Lets just worry about one secret at a time." He pulled me in, and kissed my lips again.........
