Thanks to my wonderful beta, Hardy Sleuth, here's the next chapter! :D

Disclaimer: Still don't own Pete (darn it!)... :(


Henry smiled and walked with Jen onto the dance floor. Pete watched as they twirled around to the swift beat of the music. Jen let out a small laugh as Henry spun her and Pete felt his heart skip a beat at the sound.

"Hey." Andy stood next to Pete.

"Hey." Pete glanced at him.

"I see Jen finally arrived." Andy looked around. "Where's...Joanie?"

"With Tank," Pete replied. "You okay?"

"I'm fine," Andy said with a shrug. "But you're not..."

"What?"

"You are so lovesick..."

Pete frowned. He had been staring at Jen for quite a while, but he still hadn't expected anyone to notice.

"I love her," Pete admitted with a sigh.

"There's nothing wrong with that," Andy said. "She loves you, too..."

The music ended and Henry and Jen walked back over to Andy and Pete. Jen grinned when she saw Andy.

"Andy, hi." Jen gave Andy a quick hug.

"Hey, Jen." Andy smiled slightly.

The band started playing a slow love song and Pete looked at Jen.

"My turn," Pete said as he took Jen's hand.

Jen smiled and followed him onto the dance floor. Pete took Jen in his arms and she moved closer to him. They began to sway slowly to the music and for a minute, they were lost in a world of music.

"Wonder where Andy and Henry went..." Jen said quietly.

Pete turned slightly and saw that Andy and Henry had left. He shrugged and turned back to Jen. Their gazes met and at that moment, Pete knew he would do anything for her.

"What is it?" Jen broke the silence. "Is something wrong?"

"Nothing's wrong," Pete replied. "I was just thinking..."

"About what?"

"How I'm the luckiest guy in the world," Pete said softly. "I mean, I get to dance with the prettiest girl in the city..."

Jen blushed slightly and she looked away. Pete placed a finger under her chin and brought her face back up to meet his.

"Jen, I love you," Pete said slowly.

Pete looked around the crowded dance floor and frowned slightly. He took Jen's arm and led her our of the crowd. Jen silently followed Pete out of the room and out onto one of the balconies. Pete turned back to Jen and took her hands in his.

"I meant it when I said I love you," Pete said. "I've loved you from the moment we met."

"Pete, I-" Jen took a deep breath. "I love you, too..."

Pete broke into a grin and moved a hand to Jen's hip. She moved closer and they began to dance, slowly and sweetly.

"Have you ever thought about getting married?" Pete asked, his tone low.

"I have," Jen replied, her head resting on Pete's shoulder.

"How would you feel about marrying me?" Pete asked.

"I think it would be wonderful..." Jen moved her head to look at Pete.

"Good..." Pete moved a hand to Jen's face. With a smile, he leaned down and kissed her.


Aw, true love... :D Don't forget to review! :)
