Sequel to Life without you. Thanks for all the tips and comment, I tried using them in this story. Reviews would be helpful. Let me know if I should continue my mini series. Enjoy :)

"Velma, I've never, like, felt this way about anyone. It's like a really beautiful feeling, Velms. When you liked Ben and he like didn't like you back, I actually felt happy instead of sad. I was ashamed of that but I didn't understand why I felt that way. Even seeing him in the hallways at school made my blood boil. It was almost as if I was jealous of him. Jealous of the fact that he had a chance with you and I didn't. Jealous of the fact that you liked him and not me. Jealous of the fact that you thought about him before sleeping, not me. And I like swear Velms, I wouldn't have known it was jealousy if it weren't for HER. If she hadn't broken my heart, I wouldn't have like known that what I felt for you is not ordinary, but is extraordinary, as well as magical."

Good job man, now let's wait for her to wake up so that I can say all this to her. But... I don't think I can. She's so beautiful, smart, funny... I don't think I can do this. It's near impossible, what if J fumble? I should probably reherse a few more times.

"Shaggy?" Velma said groggily "Where are my glasses? I don't know where I put them and oh... hey"

Shaggy put her glasses on for her and smiled, hoping she heard none of what he said.

"Why are you up? *yawn* Could I get some breakfast?" asked Velma, her eyes still adjusting to the light.

"Yeah, like, sure, there's toast and cereal and stuff," Shaggy replied.

"Thanks," Velma said and hopped off the couch to get dressed.

As they were eating their breakfast, they occassionally glanced at each other and smiled while blushing.

"Umm Shag?" asked Velma with a slight frown.

"Yeah, what's wrong?"

"About last night... It was great, I mean it was wonderful. But... I'm not sure if that's what I want from you. Yet. I mean I don't think I'm ready for all this and I really don't wanna jeopardize our friendship. I know we both know about my feelings but what if whatever you said this morning was just to make me feel better about myself?" she asked with tears in her eyes.

Oh, so that's how she feels... It was so stupid of me to think she would be ready for all this...

"I'm sorry, I didn't know that's how you felt, Velms," replied Shaggy, the sad note obvious in his voice.

After breakfast, they cleared the table and Shaggy quietly walked off into his bathroom for a shower.

What do I do? Actually, why did I even think I had a chance with someone like her? I should have seen this coming, she isn't even THAT kind if girl. Oh God, what if she thinks I used her? No, she wouldn't think that way, she's better than that. Maybe she's just not ready. I could wait...

Meanwhile, Velma changed into her own clothes and sat on the couch in despair. And that was when she saw a piece of paper and a pen.

Shaggy,

I'm sorry about what I said. Afterall, I have loved you for years without response and now that you reciprocate my feelings, I don't know how to react. When I said I wasn't ready, I meant I wasn't ready for what happened last night. Let's give it a fresh start and pretend nothing happened between us.

If you're free, I'll come over tonight and we could talk about it.

Velma.

She gathered her belongings and walked to her house with a warm feeling creeping through her body as a smile made its way across her face.

The End
