You let tears escape your eyes as you walked into the waiting room, Warren looked at you with wide eyes before quickly standing up. He rushed up to you,

"(Y/N), is there something wrong?" he puts his hands on your shoulders,staring at you as he waits for an answer

You crash your head against his chest,wrapping your arms around him tightly. You cry louder;beginning to sob. He holds you tightly, rubbing your back,
"W..Warren. I..can't believe this, is..is this real or am I dreaming?" you choke out

"What? What are you talking about what happened?" he sounds concerned and a bit scared

"The doctor," you try to dry your face and calm yourself, "He told me that I was in remission, this can't be real...can it?"

"Holy crap! That's great! That's amazing." he holds you even tighter in his arms;the excitement in his voice grows. He lets go of you and leads you back to his car.

"I'll still have to come for checkups but...I..can't believe this...! I have to call and tell my parents--no I need them to come down here! I need to tell them face to face." you were so overwhelmed by the news, which made Warren visibly happy

"I told you. I told you you'd beat this." he smiled and opened your car door for you before getting in himself.

After you and Warren "celebrated" by getting ice cream you returned to school to see Nathan like you had planned. Your eyes were puffy and irritated from the crying you had done, but this huge smile remained on your face. You banged on the door and once Nathan answered you basically threw yourself into his arms, he was hesitant to hold you back.

"(Y/N)? Are...you okay..?" he quietly asked as he looked at you

"I'm..I'm great..I got some amazing news that I--" you stopped yourself, you were better but you were still afraid to say it...in your mind there wasn't even a need to say it, in your mind it didn't exist anymore so you looked up into his bright blue eyes and smile, "It's not important. Some things have...changed for me."

He chuckled to himself at how eager you were, and at how happy you seemed,
"What do you mean..?"

"If I'm honest...I was scared to death when you kissed me and I'm sorry that I just ran off." you look away for a moment before locking your eyes with his

"Don't apologize, I wasn't thinking straight I shouldn't have--" he looked away, nervously

"Stop. Let me finish," you quietly laugh as he blushed, "I know that we still don't know each other well and we don't talk nearly as much as I'd like to but, I....I want to give this a chance..I want to give us a chance." you admitted

"Are..you serious..?" he looks quite taken aback, he glances at you before he avoids eye contact, "I don't think--"

"I'm serious,Nathan. I mean it." you grab his jaw,turning his face so that he can look at you.

"I...I.." he's obviously not sure what to say,he leans down gently towards you and softly dips his lips into yours. They softly brush against yours before they touch, you feel that tingly feeling again. Your hearts races. He pulls away and stares into your eyes.

"I..I've never been with anyone before so I'm sorry if I'm awkward." you laugh nervously laying your head on his shoulder as you wrap your arms around him.

"I think you're just naturally a dork..." he laughs, making you playfully hit his back with a grin on your face
