Oh my god Kate, Oh my god! I can't believe you told him! Why would you tell him?! Stupid, Stupid, Stupid! Kate banged her head against the wall of her room. It was four o' clock in the morning, but she coudn't sleep. How could she after what she had just told Derek. Sighing, she finally laid down on her bed and closed her eyes. Anytime now... Fall asleep... She told herself. After some time of thought and telling herself she's stupid, Kate fell asleep.

The next morning, Kate awoke to Derek sitting at her bedside. Surprised, she sat up and rubbed her eyes, making sure he was real. Yep, he was real alright. She just hated the fact that she couldn't tell if he was mad, or sad, or anything. He was just staring at her blankly.

"Hey," was all she could get out.

"I stayed up all night, thinking..." He paused and continued to stare at her.

"And?" She prodded him. She couldn't stand awkward silences.

"I just... You live your whole life thinking you're the one making the decisions, when really, your not. My whole life is a script," He looked down at his hands, then looked back at her. "You should've told me sooner."

She got out of bed and replied, "I wanted to, but we hardly even knew eachother. What did you want me to say? 'Oh hey, I'm Kate, and your life is a TV show.' How crazy would that sound?"

He stood up and confronted her. Kate wasn't afraid she brought her face closer.

"I had the right to know!" He replied.

"Oh my god, Derek... You know now, so what's the difference?!" She screamed.

"The difference is I love you now!" He exclaimed.

Kate backed up and the room became deathened with silence. She sighed... She didn't know what to say to that.

"Casey left me..." It appeared as if he was going to cry. "And now you're going to leave me too." In saying that he rushed out of the room.

Kate just stood there replaying what Derek just said in her head. Tears began to well up in her eyes as she slowly fell to her knees and cried into her cupped hands.

A few minutes had passed, Kate looked up to see Marti standing at the door with a puzzled look on her face. The little girl walked in and sat next to Kate.

"What's wrong, Katie?" Marti asked.

"Nothing, I'm just sad," Kate replied rubbing her rosy cheeks of her tears.

"Did Derek make you cry? I can go beat him up if you want me to," The little girl patted Kate's back soothingly.

Kate couldn't help but to laugh. "No, it's okay, Marti."

"Are you sure?" She looked Kate in the eyes.

"Yeah, I'm sure," Kate replied with an assuring smile. "But thanks anyway."

"No problem." Marti gently wiped Kate's eyes with her little hands, stood up and skipped out of the room.

The days passed, Derek and Kate didn't sat one word to eachother. When they passed eachother in the hall, Derek would just ignore her and Kate did the same. She knew he was expecting an apology, but why? She never did anything wrong. It was his fault for falling in love with her, but then again, she did kind of wait too long to tell him.

The day before the dance finally came and the two teenagers still were stone cold against eachother, until Derek bumped Kate in the hallway. She wasn't just going to let that go.

"Hey!" She said angrily. Luckily everyone was out for ice-cream.

"Oops..." Was all he said.

"You did that on purpose!" She rose her voice.

Derek rolled his eyes. "That wasn't on purpose. This is on purpose." He then shuved her back against the wall.

She retorted and pushed him against the wall.

He laughed and said, "You call that a push?"

Her eyes narrowed and she quickly put her arm around his head in a headlock. They both fell to the floor with a thump. He wrapped his arms around her waist and with his strong hockey arms he pulled her off of him. He had her face up on the floor, her hands pinned, and her body pinned down with his body. She kept struggling, when finally she decided it was no use.

Without warning, Derek leaned down and gently pursed his lips against hers. Kate was no doubtedly surprised, but she couldn't bring herself to pull away from his luscious lips. Their lips glided against one anothers and their tongues tangled as Derek let go of on of her hands and slid his hand up and down her athletic body. After a few seconds he held her hand again and began to caress her soft neck. Kate was ticklish there, though, so she laughed. Derek just looked at her and laughed also.

"I can't help it, Kate..." He said with a smile.

Kate sighed and sat up. He sat beside her. "I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner."

He shook his head. "Don't apologize." There was a silence between the two before Derek said, "I just want to enjoy the time I have with you, before you leave."

"So you're still taking me to the dance?" She smiled.

"I wouldn't go with anyone else." He put his arm around her and hugged her tightly.

I love when he holds me. It feels so good. Why God? Why do I have to leave? She sighed and admitted to herself. I'm inlove with a TV character. She didn't care though. She just laid her head on his shoulder and savored the moment.
