Chapter 11: Getting together

It had simply been too much. David's head was spinning around and his heart was beating so fast he could feel like it was going to rip his chest apart and come out. He had thought that kissing Catherine again just once on stage would have been enough to ease his desire to be with her, but it hadn't. He needed to feel her again, he needed to taste her mouth again but more than anything he needed her.

He got out of his room in a hurry and opened without knocking the door in front of his, which was Catherine's. He saw her there, sitting in front of her mirror brushing her hair and then turning around to face him very impressed.

"David!" she said "You scared me, knock next time. Imagine I hadn't been dressed" she laughed but stopped almost immediately when she saw her friend's blank expression. "David?" she asked worried. "Are you all right?"

He shook his head and pressed his lips together hardly.

She stood from her chair, approached him slowly and grabbed his arm. "What is it? David, talk to me" she said.

And he just couldn't hang on any longer, not one more second. He grabbed her face between his hands and quickly brought their lips together in a very hard crash. He felt her pull back and free herself from him instantly.

She gasped. "What are you doing?"

"What do you think?" he said.

She shook her head. "I, I just, David I can't. You know I love you, that you're my best friend. But I can't do this"

"Why?"

"Because" she sighed. "Because you deserve much better, you deserve a sane person, you deserve a beautiful woman, you deserve a strong woman, you deserve a talented woman, you deserve an intelligent woman. You deserve every thing I don't have"

"But I want you. And if you say that what you just described is what I deserve, then you think I deserve you. Because you are that and so much more"

"I'm not. I'm no one, I'm nothing special"

"Why is it you always make yourself look like so much less, why don't you see yourself as what you really are?" he asked her and started walking to get closer.

"David, no" she said. Every step he took forward was a step she would take back, eventually her back hit the wall.

"Catherine, please"

"No, no" she shook her head from one side to the other and back again, she just saw him getting nearer and nearer, she felt his hands placed on the wall to her sides and she found herself completely trapped. "I can't" she whispered.

"Am I ugly?" he asked.

"No..."

"Am I not of your liking?"

"No, I mean, yes, I mean" she stammered. "I do like you David but..."

"Look at me in the eyes and tell me you felt nothing up on stage. Say it and we can forget this every happened, we go back to be just Tate and Tennant, bestest of mates"

She closed her eyes and pressed her eyelids hardly together. "I don't want to loose you"

"Why would you lose me?" he asked. "If we happen we won't ever end"

"You're my best friend, best mate, if we do something... I'm not good with relationships, I hurt people, they always leave me" she opened her eyes again and looked into his.

"I would never leave you" he said. "I can't be the only one who felt something up there, tell me you didn't feel anything"

"No, of course I did. It was different, it wasn't like two years ago, and that's what is scary, I felt something" she looked into his eyes with more care and all she could find was love, genuine love. "How long have you known?"

"When did we film The Runaway Bride?" he asked smiling.

She gave a faint laugh. "Don't say that, it can't be true"

"I saw you in that white dress and all I could think was what I wanted my wedding to look like" he admitted.

"This is wrong" she said. "Why did you wait so long?"

"I was afraid you'd reject me, but apparently you're doing that now"

"What if I'm not?" she asked. She looked down and then whispered. "Kiss me"

He felt his jaw muscles (that he didn't know were tense before that moment) relax completely and nearly drop making his mouth be open, but he didn't let them and kept his face still. A chill ran his whole body when he saw her embarrassed face looking down, so he grabbed her chin with his index and tumb and slowly made her look into his eyes, he smiled and leaned forward to lock their lips together

She threw her arms around him and finally released herself from her uncomfortable position on the wall. She kissed him softly and short but pulled back only her face, grabbing onto his neck. "I want to do this" she said.

Half an hour later...

"Robert" Josie called. "Do you happen to know where the kids are?"

Robert blinked and then opened hos mouth. "Ohh. Do you mean David and Catherine?"

The woman nodded like it was an obvious thing. "What other kids do we have in the cast?"

"Right, I don't know, do you want me to check on them?" he asked.

"Yes please, we have dinner with the critics in an hour, it would be a good idea they were decent. Go for David first"

Robert walked the corridor until he got to the star's door, he knocked but received no answer, he knocked again and called the man's name but again received no answer. He decided to go inside but when she opened the door he found an empty room, he got inside and looked in the bathroom, which was also empty, he shrugged and decided to go to Catherine's room, thinking that David had probably gotten out already and was talking to Leo Starr about some T.V. series.

He got out, closing the door with care and walked to the door that was right in front. He knocked and received no answer. Right, they had both gotten out together without no one noticing. "Catherine?" he called and knocked again but still got no answer. With all the courage he could get he opened the door and took absolutely no long time to find not only the ginger but also the other actor. They were on the couch sleeping, Catherine carefully inside David's embrace, Robert smiled at the sight but also remembered he would earn some screams from his friend Josie if he didn't wake the actors up.

He cleared his throat loudly and got an immediate response from the bodies on the couch, which jumped and quickly sat apart from each other. "We weren't, we are..." the two actors tried to explain.

"I won't tell Josie if you come with me in this instant, she says we have a dinner with some critics" Robert laughed.

They nodded and got out, played their part on dinner being well behaved and earnt several congratulations for their acting. Later in the night they were thanked by Josie and when they were left alone they felt the air around them thicken.

"I think we need to talk" Catherine said, breaking the silence.

"Should we go to my house?" David asked.

"Yeah"

And so, they did.

AN: Yes, shorty. Sorry but I hope you're okay with it anyway! Remember I love to hear from you so please review!

Now comes the detailed explanation to whom ever wants to know why I took 26 days to update and with such a short chapter:
First off I had... summer break! So I went to a beach here in my country for 5 days, then I came back to my city for about 4 days and headed to London, it was amazing because I hadn't been there for 3 years and it's my absolute favorite place on earth. I spent 13 days in London (well. UK because I went 3 to Edinburgh) and so I had no time to write there. I missed the Doctor Who Wold Tour on my city thing which I'm still not over of.
Second thing! I may be much younger than all of you probably think, I'm 14 years old and so a week ago I started High School, it's been great but pretty hectic because I have had to buy many things and of course I have no time to write in the mornings.
Third thing! If you have followed this story from the beginning and read my notes or if you follow me on twitter/tumblr/instagram you most certainly know I go to a professional music school where I study piano. I have been playing for almost 10 years, have been in that school for 4 and it is my absolute passion. With my age and my schooling level I had to do about two months back a very important piano exam to change to what is called Medium Superior Level, I passed with the highest mark and so now everything is different: I go 4 times a week in the afternoons for a total of 8 hours, plus I have to study at least 4 hours of piano. So that gives you a bit of an idea of why I have not updated and why this chapter is so short. But writing is also one of the things I love the most and writing for you the things I write is something I ADORE, so worry not! I will not stop writing but please do have patience on me because I will just be able to write on weekends or late at nights and this isn't the only fanfic I write.

Hey happiest of news! On sunday I came out to my mother! Yes, as in came out of the closet, I feel amazing and she was so cool about it so yeah. Me = The happiest human being in the entire universe.

Love you all, thanks for reading!
