"I'm tired. I didn't much sleep at all." Arianna said as she laid her head down on Derek's muscular arm.

"How come?"

"I felt like someone was watching me. I knew no one was there but still…" She shivered. "Creepy…"

Derek stopped the car on the side of the road. "Are you positive no one was watching you?" He said bluntly. He felt his heart speed up a tiny bit but he calmed down.

"Y-Yeah…well at least I hope so…Hey where did Scott go?" She asked curiously looking around.

"He went home."

"But I-"

"That's all you need to know." He sped off.

Finally they got to Lydia's. Arianna fell asleep on Derek's arm. Once she woke up she wiped drool off her face. "Oh shit! I'm sorry!"

"It's okay. It's not like I liked my jacket anyways." Derek replied irritated as he wiped off the drool on his jacket. "God damn it." He mumbled.

"Well, I guess I'll see you tonight?" Arianna responded as she fittled with her fingers nervously.

"Yeah, that's why I took you here."

"Hey Derek….do you…nothing…" The brunette sighed out.

"No. Tell me."

She looked down at her feet, trying her best to stay calm. "Do you have a strange feeling when I'm around you? Like…you can't take your eyes off me?" She was so nervous. "Why am I asking such a stupid question? Of course he doesn't! Stupid! Stupid!"

Derek breathed out. "We'll talk later. Now hurry up. Lydia isn't a patient person, and neither am I."

"I apologize." She got out and started walking to Lydia's door. Derek watched her carefully as she was greeted into Lydia's house.

"Guess I better be going."

~*At The Mall~*

"So what are your favorite colors? Actually never mind I'll just do all the picking out today." Lydia started picking out dress after dress until she handed Arianna ten different dresses.

"I'm supposed to try all of these on?!"

"Well yeah. That's why we are at the mall. To you know get you all slutted up for your Derek." Lydia said with a smirk.

"W-Wha…slutted up? Like dress as a slut. No. Nonononononono. I refuse." Arianna exclaimed as she put down the dresses.

"Oh calm down I was just kidding. Plus there is no way a girl like you could even look like one. Now go try them on because we have to still do makeup and your hair, Hun."

~* After A Long Day At The Mall, At Lydia's House~*

Lydia starts putting makeup on the almost naked girl. "We should do a smokey eye on you. I'm sure he'll like that. So anyways what's the deal with you two. I've never seen him interested in a girl before."

"I uh…well…I just met him this morning at the café shop. I really don't know what happened, we just clicked and…oh god I don't know what to do. I've never went on a date before! Especially with-"

"A good looking guy like him. I know. Just don't give your hopes up. He's not the best guy in the world but…if he cares for you this much he won't abandon you."

"What do you mean?"

"Well…the whole time I have known Derek…we all never really pictured him dating let alone be interested in a girl. Just consider yourself lucky. I'm sure there are many women out there who would just love to pounce on him and have his babies."

"L-Lydia!"

"Hmph, just speaking the truth. And now we are all done. Go get that butt in that dress now!"

A few moments later Arianna walks out in a black one shoulder strap cut out dress that came up above her has an asymmetrical hemline and is a tight stretch fitted, just her size. Her hair was ddown but straightened. Her makeup was a black smokey eye.

"Damn girl. He's going to love you in that."

"You think so…?" Arianna blushed.

"Oh yeah!" A car pulled up into the drive way. "Oh look who's here! Go get him tiger!"

Arianna walked down staris and took a breath. Derek knocked at the door and Arianna answered with a beating red face. Her heart was pounding.

"H-Hi…Derek. What do you thi..nk..?" She hestintly asked.

Derek was officially lost with words. This could not of been the same girl he met this morning. The one in a messy hair bun, no makeup, wearing a loose t-shirt and pants that are a size too big.

"I'm sorry! I'll go change!" She turned around and started darting to the stairs.

Derek quickly grabbed her arm. "No, it's…I mean…you look great." In other words, I'd like to bone you now.

She blushed even more and tried to hide her body with her arms and hands. "Th-thanks…"

Derek took a step back. He needed to breathe for a second to calm down his animal instincs. He was expecting a little change in her look tonight but not like this. This was too much for him to handle all night. Derek started to think, "what if the guys at the club start grinding up on her…Oh I'll be pissed. She's mine."

He took her to the car and opened the door for her. Once she got in he closed it and went to the otherside and got in. He started the car and went to change it from park to reverse when he suddenly felt a gentle touch on his hand. He followed the arm that was connected to the hand all the way up to Arianna's blushing face.

"Derek…can we have that talk now…? Please…?" She begged slightly.

"…" He sighed. "Okay I'm just going to be blunt about this. Yes I do feel a little connection. Nothing big just…little. I don't know why but it's driving me nuts, okay? Now can we go?" He demanded as he locked eyes with her.

"…Yeah…I guess…" she said with a sort of sadness as she let go of his hand slowly. "Just…my heart pounds in my chest every time I look into your…"she looked up into his eyes, "eyes…."

Derek looked at her up and down. Admiring how the dress fitted perfectly on her and then looked back up into her eyes. "I can tell I make you nervous. Don't be. It's not like I'm going to do anything to you." He said as he reversed the car and put it in drive.

As they headed to the club Arianna was shifting in her seat a lot.

"What's wrong now?"

"Just…I never been to a club before. Hey I got a question for you."

"Oh yay, another…what is it?" He said rolling his eyes.

"Well, fine if you are going to be like that. All I wanted to know is if you'd get a jealous if other guys started to dance with me or hit on me, but never freaking mind, Jerk." Arianna pouted and crossed her arms over her chest.

"Arianna, you should know that yeah I would be jealous but probably not go into 'hey I'm going to kill you if you touch her' mode." Derek lied. The fact about talking about this was making him jealous. He just didn't like to show it.

"Well, if I ever need help from you I guess I would call out for you." She blutly said while rolling her eyes and mumbled out, "Jerk".

"How am I being a jerk, Woman?"

"Because you just are! You always have been a jerk to me!"

"Then why go on this date with me if you don't like me?!" Derek huffed.

"Because I like you a lot okay?! Is that so bad? If this is the result for liking you then I better get use to it…I-I…" She murmured "I don't know anymore…"

"Look you can't like me. We just fucking met."

"Then explain why you are holding my hand!"

Derek looked down to see his fingers tangled up with hers. He doesn't remember putting them there. "What the fuck…" he thought. He quickly took his hand away.

"Exactly…so you just…be quiet, Derek!" She huffed and looked outside.

They pulled into the parking lot of the club. "Do you still not want to go in?"

"…I want to only because you are…and I don't want…other girls to- umm…nothing" She shook her head and got out of the car.

Derek got out with a smirk on his face. "So she'll get jealous too, huh?" He thought to himself. Then he heard a bunch of guys whispering to each other saying how hot Arianna looked and a bunch of sexual things that'd do to her. Listening to that made Derek's eyes glow red. He closed them and started to take deep breaths, slowing down his heartbeat. He felt a soft, gentle hand on his hand. He opened his eyes to find it was Arianna.

"You okay, Derek?" She asked while gently squeezing his hand.

"yeah…" he looked back to find the men staring still. He put his arm around her small waist and pulled her close. Making sure the men knew that she was his, not theirs. "Let's go in."
