*Anthony's P.O.V*

Someone knocks on the door and I get up to get it.

I look out the peep hole and see chase standing there nervously.

I dont open it and he keeps ringing the door bell.

"C'mon Diane please open the door, I know you are here. I'm not leaving until you open it please." He begs and continues to ring the door bell over and over again.

I sigh and twist the door knob

"Chase you shouldn't be here right now." I say.

"I need to see her I need to explain, where is she." He says.

"Shes upstairs sleeping " I say and chase pushes me out of the door way after seeing Diane limping past me to the kitchen.

"What happened to her? What did you do?" He turns to me.

"She tripped and rolled her ankle. And what I did was comfort her after you broke her heart." I say glaring at him.

"Not intentionally." He says and makes his way to the kitchen to where Diane is.

*Diane's P.O.V*

Chase is here.

I can't do this.

Not here.

Not now.

Not in front of my friends.

I look up biting back the tears that are soon to be rolling down my face.

"Diane, please let me explain." Chase says sitting down next to me.

I sigh.

It's now or never I guess.

"Um guys, can you hang in the backyard for a bit? I say and they nod knowing I want privacy.

After they're all away I turn and look up at chase, the tears already running down my face.

Chase takes his hand and rests it onto my cheek and wipes away a tear.

"Diane, I'm so sorry." He says looking into my eyes.

"But why did you do it? Was I not pretty enough or not as experienced as her or-"

He cut me off.

"No, oh God no I can't even explain how beautiful you are and I would never want a girl who's probably had about three STDS. He says.

"I would never cheat on you Diane. I'm absolutely in love with you." He says taking my hands.

"But I saw you two kissing, and I'm pretty sure that's cheating. I say letting more tear drops fall.

"Let me tell you what really happened. I've been noticing that you've seemed kinda down lately and I know how much you love books so I was setting up a little date in to library to cheer you up. But then Loren came in she started flirting with me I told her I had a girlfriend, you. And she didn't seem to impressed so then she cornered me and she kissed me I was trying to push her off and then you walked in. I swear that's what happened. I wouldn't lie to you diane.

I say nothing.

I look up at him and I pull him into a kiss and he kisses back.

After a few moments we pull away.

"I love you." He says

"I love you." I say hugging him.
