Anna's POV:
I was so excited to finally have some fun, ever since this whole thing started everyone has been on edge, this would be the time where we could have fun and hangout as friends like old times. Yet even though I was excited, I was still tense and I didn't know why. Was is because of Nate or what happened back in the doctor's office? I wasn't sure, I knew we were going to have to talk about it, Kayla had hopped a ride with Lex so we had the truck to ourselves. I glanced over at him a few times but he kept staring at the road. Everytime I wanted to say something, I would open my mouth but no words would come out. I finally mustered up the courage to start a conversation, it had never been this nerve racking before.
" So are you excited to go to the amusement park?" I said looking out the window, I wasn't sure if I wanted to make eye contact with him.
" U-um yeah I guess so" Derrick mumbles
"Quick question, why is it awkward now? It never was before, and I am sorry if what I said in the doctor's office, made it this way, it was just a joke." I say as I start messing with my jacket to calm my shaky nerves.
" So you don't want it to happen?"
"No that's not what I meant at all!" I probably jumped to conclusion way to fast, but I didn't want him getting the wrong idea, I wasn't sure what I wanted, as I stare at the ring on the keychain.
"Its Nate isn't it, is that what's stopping you?" he questions with concern
"You know it's not that, I never want to go back to that relationship. Of course I remember all the times when he wasn't so bad, but it always brings me back to getting slapped. I don't want that to happen again..." I turn my head away again.
" Aww hun that will never happen again, I promise, it will never be that way."
"Oh so it'll never be that way if I'm with you?" I try to joke to lighten the mood.
" I didn't want to rush you into anything, but if that's what you want.. Then yeah" Derrick gets nervous about what he said
I glance over to him, "Yet I don't want to force anything onto you, of course I like you, I wouldn't have kissed you in the mall if I hadn't, but I'm not sure if you like me." I got nervous for his answer.
Derrick pulls into where the amusement park is and parks the truck,he turns and looks me dead in the eyes.
" Anna I don't like you.."
"Oh, I understand..." I say getting ready to get out of the truck, but he grabs my wrist before I could get out.
" I love you more than you know"
I sit there wide eyed, not knowing what to say. " You what? Since when!" I say almost jokingly, but yet serious.
" I have loved you since the first day I met you, you had other plans at the time and it wasn't my place to ruin them" He says taking my hand, my heart starts to flutter, like I have a swarm of angry butterflies in my chest.
"I'm either going to kiss you or faint, I can't tell right now." I say with a smirk.
"Just kiss me already, you know you want to." He says as he pulls me closer, I meet him halfway and kiss him. I couldn't believe this had actually happened, I get out of the truck and see him standing there with his hand extended waiting for me to take it, I walk over with this biggest smile ever and take his hand, he was the first guy that actually wanted me to take his hand, I was so excited to be able to call him mine.
Lex's POV:
I see Anna and Derrick talking in the truck as we walk in. I have my hand in Jace's. I smile because I know Anna and I hadn't been this happy in a very long time. I finally see them walking hand in hand.
