A/N: Hello my lovely readers! I know by now you must be thinking I fell off the face of the Earth but HERE I AM! I know it's been months and I'm so sorry! If you really want to know why I couldn't update there is an explanation at the end of the story. But for now here's Chloe's POV of the last chapter!
Disclaimer: I don't own Darkest Powers or the song Kissin' You.
Chloe POV
Derek and I were listening to the radio in our room at the new permanent safe house we had found. I had my back up against the headboard and Derek was laying down with his head in my lap.
I was running my fingers through his hair, gently scraping my nails along his scalp. Derek kept making these cute little noises, almost close to purring, so I could tell he enjoyed it.
Suddenly the radio host announced a girl named Miranda Cosgrove's new hit Kissin' You. I started listening and immediately all the lyrics reminded me of Derek and I's relationship.
Sparks fly
It's like electricity
I might die
Every time I was with Derek I felt exactly like that. I feel like I've just touched an electrical outlet but instead of the shock I was in pain from how good it felt.
When I forget how to breathe
You get closer and there's
No where in this world I'd rather be
Whenever I looked into Derek's eyes or he told me he loved me ( I still couldn't get used to hearing him say that) I almost always stopped breathing. But it didn't matter because everything was perfect as long as I was with him.
Time stops
Like everything around me
Is frozen
No matter what we're doing as long as I'm with Derek time doesn't exist. Everything freezes and is perfect just because we're together.
And nothing matters but these
Few moments when you open my mind to things
I've never seen
Derek opened my mind to accepting myself for who I am; a necromancer. And since then I've been able to actually use my powers to save the people I care about.
Also Derek's so smart that every day we start a discussion about something, he always shows me a whole new side to that topic.
'Cause when I'm kissing you
My senses come alive
Every time we kiss it is the best feeling in the world. Every nerve in my body was on edge, but in a good way.
Almost like the puzzle piece
I've been trying to find
Falls right into place
Derek fills a piece of me I never knew I was missing until he came along. Especially since my mom died no one's ever been able to help me come to terms with her death.
With Derek, he understand since he grew up without a mother also. He never just says sorry for your loss and expects me to move on like everyone else does.
He holds me while I cry and whispers comforting words in my ear.
You're all that it takes
My doubts fade away
When I'm kissing you
Any doubts that I could never be good enough for Derek disappear when his lips connect with mine.
When I'm kissing you
It all starts making sense
Derek and I never made sense together. He was tall, handsome, smart and controlling. I was tiny, always looked like a little girl because of my height, kind of shy and very clumsy. But when we kissed we made sense together so everything else didn't matter.
And all the questions
I've been asking in my head
Like are you the one should I really trust
Crystal clear it becomes
When I'm kissing you
I'm Derek's mate. There's no question if we were the "one" for each other. We will get married when we're older. We both knew that and have even talked about it once or twice. For now though we were happy just being a couple and being mates.
Past loves
They never got very far
Wall's up, made sure
I guarded my heart
And I promise I wouldn't do this till
I knew it was right for me
I thought I loved Simon but as soon as he kissed me I knew it wasn't Simon I was in love with. It was Derek.
But no one (no one)
No guy that I met before
Could make me (make me)
Feel so right and secure
And have you noticed
I lose my focus
And the world around me disappears
No one has, or could ever, make me feel the way Derek does. I definitely lose my focus with Derek but, then again, he did the same thing so it didn't matter.
We've both endured endless hours of teasing from Simon, Tori and even Kit when they did or said something to us but we were to absorbed in each other to notice.

Derek had never kissed anyone before but regardless he was the most amazing kisser ever.

When I'm kissing you
It's almost scary how closely Derek and I are connected. We have to be in constant physical contact with each other (whether it's just Derek's arm around my waist or my head resting on his shoulder) as part of the mate thing. But, surprisingly, it never gets old.
I've never felt nothing like this
You're making me open up
No point in even trying to fight this
It kinda feels like it's love
Derek and I understood each other so well that we were more open with each other than anyone, even our own families. At first, when Simon had figured out I liked Derek, I had tried to fight it.
Once we both stopped fighting our feelings and let fate take over we were much happier together. It wasn't just kinda, I knew it was love with Derek, and he was in love with me.

The song ends and I'm lost in thought. "Chloe?" Derek asks. "Yeah?" I responded. "I love you. So much." he said. My heart warms and I can't help the huge smile that stretches across my face.
"I love you too. Extremely much." I told him. "I think that should be our song." Derek said. "What do you mean our song?" I asked. I kind of thought I knew what he meant but it was so unlike Derek to think of something like that.
"Well you know how some couples have a song to define their relationship? I think that should be ours." he said.
"Your right. It's describes how I feel perfectly." I told him, my smile filled with love. "Me too." He told me and smiled his special smile saved only for me.
I raised my knees so his face was level with mine and kissed him, pouring all my love and feeling into the kiss.
Thoughts? Thanks for all the reviews and favorite story/author from the last chapter. If not for them when I got this time to write I would not have continued. Thanks to all who checked out my other stories also!
REVIEW PLEASE!
A/N: So here's my apology for all those who are wondering what happened. My school has 2 semesters only. Each semester has 4 classes a day. Right now 3 out of my 4 classes are AP and the other is trig which I am horrible at. With the AP classes comes A LOT of homework! For 2 weeks straight I've come home, sat down doing homework and have not stopped until late at night. Weekends are filled with traveling, schoolwork, drama rehearsal or one of my brother's sports games. We didn't get off school until Christmas Eve and then we were traveling to spend Christmas with my mom's side of the family. For those who read my other stories I am going to try to update sometime this week but I am at my aunt's house so I'm not sure if I can get enough computer time. I will continue regularly updating my stories the beginning of Feburary when my classes change and become easier. Thanks for reading and sticking with me guys! :) -Claire
