Katy's POV

I felt bad I hadn't told Ansel what happened two months ago. Mary came by and threatened me.

-FLASHBACK-

"Listen here missy." Mary said.

"Back off my man or else I will ruin your life slowly and painfully! You little whore." She said and I slammed the door in her face.

I rubbed my eyes. Did that really just happen?

"You asked for it bitch!" She screamed and punched my door causing my head to hurt.

I listened as her heels click-clacked down the hallway away from me.

Shit.

-END OF FLASHBACK-

I didn't tell him because I didn't want him to do anything stupid or worry. "Hey boo." He said walking up and hugging me from behind. I smiled and put my hand up behind his neck as I felt his warm lips press a kiss to my cheek. Today would be the last day of 2014, and at 12 I knew Ansel planned on kissing me. I kinda, sorta, maybe, listened to him talk to Mason. I let a little giggle escape. He let go of me and walked around to the fridge. "Whats that?" I asked taking the bag out of his hands. "Hey!" He said. And I ran away laughing, but he was to fast for me.

He wrapped his arm around my stomach and pulled me back.

I laughed as he tickled me and I threw the bag at him. "Okay okay!" I said still laughing. "You win!"

He smiled and blew me a kiss. I rolled my eyes and walked back over to him. "Please." I said giving him he puppy eyes and he but his lip. Then he groaned and handed the bag to me. I smiled, that always worked on him. I opened it up to see there was just an empty box in it. I looked up at him, he was smirking. "You tricked me!" I said and punched him in the arm.

"Yes, yes I did." He said and I laughed.

"I took the things or thing, out of the box earlier. I brought the bag out so I could throw the box away." He said. He turned around and walked over to the kitchen. I sat the bag with the box in it down and followed behind him in. He turned around and kissed me. "Mm.." I mumbled because he caught me off guard.

My phone buzzed but I ignored it. Then it buzzed again. "Ugh." Ansel said pulling away. I checked to see who it was. "It was just my alarm." I said. He leaned against the counter and crossed his arms.

"Have you talked to Mary at all?" He asked. My heart sank. "Because she wouldn't stop texting me yesterday about how nice it was to meet you personally.."

I bit my lip and he looked at me. "You need to tell me what she said to you." He said his tone getting protective as he walked over to me and put his hands on my hips. "She came by. Two months ago.." I said and he kept his eyes locked on mine. I looked down at my hands. "She didn't say anything." I lied and looked back up at him. "I thought we promised no lies, and no secrets." He said walking away from me as he ran his fingers through his hair.

"Ansel." I said walking towards him. He turned around and looked at me. "What did she say to you?!" He asked loudly and I jumped. He looked away. "I'm sorry." He said. I knew why he was sorry. He didn't like yelling. And he didn't like fighting with me either.

I wrapped my arms around him. "You shouldn't be. You didn't mean it. I'm the one that's sorry." I said. "She... she threatened me Ansel but-" He didn't let me finish. "She what?!" He yelled and turned around and pulled me close to him. "Ansel it's no big deal." I said. "She can't do anything to hurt me."

"But she will get someone else to do it for her." He said. "Why didn't you tell m-" I stopped him from talking by pushing my lips against his. He didn't hesitate to kid back. He placed his hands on my lower back. "She won't do anything to hurt me." I said. As I kept our noses and foreheads touching. He tightened his grip around me. "I won't let her if she tries." He says.

I smiled. "I love you." I said and he smiled back. "I love you too." He replied. I gave him one last kiss before walking over to the couch and laying down. "Horror movie?" I asked with a smile. He grinned and jumped over the couch to lay beside me. "Horror movie." He said.

We both loved them not only because I like them so much. But because it was the first thing we really did together, watch a horror movie. I curled up on Ansel and he held me close, wrapping his arm around me. I feel like I'm blessed.

Thank you lord for blessing me with a guy named Ansel Elgort. Thank you.

Ansel's POV

It was about to turn 12 and it would be 2015. We were in Madison Square Garden getting ready to watch the ball drop. I had my arm wrapped around Katy's shoulders. It was cold out. There was still ice and snow on the ground of course. 

We waited. 

"10!" Everyone yelled, including Katy and I. 

"9!"

"8!"

"7!'

"6!"

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!" As we yelled one I pulled Katy into my arms and kissed her. Then the confetti cannons went off but we didn't pull apart. After about a minute we did. "Happy New Years Eve, Kaitlin Reed." I said holding her close.

She smiled and pulled me back in for another kiss. I smiled against her lips. I felt her smile back too. We went to a shop that was open and I bought her a necklace that said "NY" on a small charm. It was $20.00, but worth it. She bought me a hat that had my name on it, surprisingly. My name isn't very common. I laughed at that thought.

        She kissed me again, and I gave her a peck and we headed back to our hotel. We climbed iinto bed and she curled up on my chest. "I love you." I whispered wile wrapping my arm around her. "I love you too." She said.

I will always love you, Kaitlin Reed.
