I couldn't focus in school at all today. My teachers never call on me anyway so I didn't get in trouble. Kathy was the only thing on my mind.

At lunch I hide in the library cause I know that if I see Kathy now, I'll just run. Like the coward I am. The librarian keeps looking at me like I'm crazy. Probably because I'm hiding behind a stack of books.

I see Ryan later and he tells me to calm down. That everything will be fine. But I don't know about that.

I've heard those words before. They start to sound like a lie.

The final bell rings and I head home to wait for Kathy. Today's the day I guess. The day I finally tell her.

The day I tell Kathy I like her, to her face.

No turning back.

Kopv.

I run to Teri's locker first thing in the morning. When I get there, she's putting books into her backpack.

"Hey" I say, making her turn around. She smiles at me.

"Hey. Girl, I have so much to fill you in on!". She then tells me all about her and Ryan's date last night. They went to a movie, then got Starbucks and walked in the park. They even sat on the swings and just talked. It sounded so cute.

"So, what's the update on you and DJ?" She asks.

I shrug, "That's for me to know, and you to find out tomorrow.".

She presses me for more detail but I refuse. I'm not telling her about meeting up with him. Or what I plan on saying. Frankly, I can't believe I'm going to do this.

The school day goes by in a flash, and then I run home to change into more outdoor type clothes. I say bye to mom, then head over to DJ's house. I knock and Nanna greets me and let's me in. She tells me that DJ is already at the treehouse waiting for me.

I head out the back door, and down the trail.

When I get there, I take a deep breath,and open the door.

Dpov.

The door opens and Kathy walks in. She smiles and I sort of smile back. I'm really nervous right now. She walks over and stand in front of me. We both are acting kinda awkward at the moment.

"Look, I-" "There's something I-"
We both start talking. We laugh for a second, then she says, "There's something I think we should talk about.".

I nod, and wait for her to go on.

"Teri...told me. About how, you know, you...like me." And there it is. It's out in the open now. So it's my turn to say something.

"Y-yeah," I say looking down " I do. I...I really like you Kathy."

Silence.

The scariest noise of all. Because silence means, your all alone.

Or does it..?

"I like you too DJ."

I look up and see Kathy is closer than she was a second ago. "W-what?"

She laughs lightly, "I said, I like you too. Always have. I just never realized until now. But now I know that..."

She's so close I can see the small flecks of green in her hazel eyes. She reaches up on her tiptoes, with her hands on my shoulders and whispers...

"...I've been in love with you ever since I was old enough to know what love is."

And then, I feel her soft lips on mine. An unexplainable warmth fills my chest and I can feel my face redden slightly. When she pulls away, I see pink across her cheeks too. She smiles and I do to.

Then I rest both hands on either side of her face, lean down and tell her...

"And I've loved you ever since you saved me from those bullies.".

I kiss her this time and feel her smile into the kiss. I do too.

After a moment, we pull away and rest our foreheads together, wrapped in each others arms.

And in this moment, nothing else matters, except her and me.

And in this moment...

I'm happier than I've been in years.
