Christina Perri - A Thousand Years (D and Shy's song.) in the M/M. I suggest playing it when Shyla tells the girls the story.

I stood in the mirror, heart beating against my chest as I read the note that Daniel left sitting on my breakfast plate. Of course, it was long forgotten after we did what we had just done, but now I had time to actually read it. Now that Daniel was gone, with promises of his return of course. My eyes scanned the paper and tears pooled in my lids.

"Shyla, from the very first time that I layed eyes on you, you made me speechless." My fingers shook as I read the letter, this day started out so amazing, too amazing and I feared something would go bad. Keeping hope alive I kept reading. " Who knew, that that moment would basically sum up our relationship. You being the one to always speak your mind, and me looking, what was the words you used? Oh yeah, 'Dumb founded' half the time." I laughed at that choking back tears. "I was a kid, I didn't know any better back then, and from the bottom of my soul I want say that I'm sorry for not admitting this to you sooner Shyla, for just dragging you along; for not noticing that I didn't need to fill a void with girls that meant nothing to me, because you Shy..you make me feel like, the world  is alright after all, and no matter who I lose, as long as I have you , I myself can never be lost. Thanks for always being there for me; even when I didn't know I needed you. - Love D" I breath a sigh of relief; realizing that this letter was a good thing, nothing bad was going to happen.

My heart is over joyed, I can't believe what's happening, what's happened. I had to call my girls.

Dialing Krissa's number I waited as the phone rang, my cheeks were hurting from smiling so hard.

I heard the loud chatter of Aieva and Layla in the background as she picked up, it was girls night and I was suppose to be meeting them. Instead I am home, waiting on my man to get back. I smiled again at being able to even think of Daniel that way. My man.

"B.tch where you at?" I heard Aieva's loud ass voice say in the background, I couldn't even be mad, I just laughed, "Ya'll are not going to believe this."

"What happened, you finally got layed."  I heard Layla yell cackling through the phone. They had no idea. Clearing my throat I sat on my bed putting the phone on speaker, "Actually.."

I heard gasps, "You didn't!" "Who?"

"I bet it was MCHottie." Yes, years later they still call him that. Shit, if the shoe fits. Laughing I joked, "Well if ya'll would be quiet I'll tell you." It was frozen silent I almost laughed again.

"I slept with Daniel." Came my rushed statement.

"O my gosh! Congratulations!" Krissa screamed with excitement. Layla and Aieva for some apparent reason didn't have much to say, for once. Hmm. They didn't even hear the best part yet, I know they'll respond to this.. "He asked me to marry him."

A glass dropped, "Bitch What!!! O my GOOOSSHHH" I guffawed in laughter at Krissa's reply, leave it up to my best-friend to congratulate me on having sex with a guy and 'bitch what-ing' me for getting engaged to him. "Shyla I am so happy for you." She sounded like she was in tears, and that made me tear up too. "Thanks Kriss, that means alot." I nibbled on my bottom lip waiting for Layla and Aieva to say something, Anything.  Finally Layla Spoke, "Well, if we knew all you had to do was give up the cookie to get the guy; I would have added that to our crazy ass plan all that time ago." She joked and I could hear her smile through the phone, "Congratulations Shyla, I know how much he means to you." I thanked her and laughed remembering our ridiculous plan we created to get Daniel to like me when we were kids.Slapping a palm to my forehead I sighed in embarrassment just remembering all the crazy shit we did back then, on and off of Daniel's behalf.
