We all went back to the treehouse, and did our usual stuff. I played cards with the guys while Maddie gave Paige a makeover.

Surprisingly, I kept winning over and over again at cards...and I never win (I kind of suck). I think it's cuz my opponents were staring at my boobs, but whatever. I don't judge.

"Gordie, turn on the radio, wouldjya'?" I said. "It's too quiet in here. It's creepy."

"Okay," Gordie said, and turned it on.

"Maddie, would your parents freak if they knew I was sleeping over?" Chris asked, grinning.

"YES! Oh My God, they would kill me!" Maddie moaned, putting lip gloss on Paige.

"What about you, Wil?" Gordie asked, and I shrugged.

"I don't think so. My mom lets me sleep over with you guys all the time. I guess she just figured that if I was gonna lose my virginity, I would've done it by now." I shot them a smile.

"Maddie, are you almost done?" a bored Paige moaned, and Maddie nodded.

"Yep! Open your eyes!" I glanced at Paige, before yawning loudly.

"Damn, you guys, I'm tired," I moaned, trying to stop myself from rubbing my eyes.

"Yeah, me too," Paige said. "What time is it?" Gordie glanced at his watch.

"Almost two." I sighed.

"I'm gonna crash, you guys, I'm exhausted," I stated, throwing down my cards and laying down on my sleeping bag. Paige and Maddie did the same, and the guys laid down a few minutes later.

I was laying in my usual place, where the light from the moon shines in through the window, dozing in and out of sleep when someone called out my name.

"Willow."

"Hmm?" I said, drowsily.

"You awake?" Teddy murmured. He was laying next to me.

"Yeah..." I mumbled, my eyelids drooping. We were both quiet for a while, and just as I was about to fall back asleep, Teddy said,

"So your birthday's a month away. What do you want?" I blushed.

"I don't know. Anything, I guess." Teddy frowned at me.

"Hey, Wil, are you still afraid of the dark?" he asked me and I looked over at him.

"Yeah," I whispered. "Why?"

"Just wondering. Cuz I remembered when you were younger, you used to make me stay awake with you cuz you were afraid of the dark." I smiled at him.

"You remember that?"

*Third Person: Teddy's POV*

"Yeah. Sure I do," he said and she smiled at him. Normally, Teddy was the least-shy person you would ever meet, but he always managed to get tongue-tied with Willow.

He really wanted to kiss her, but couldn't for two reasons:

1. He was too much of a fucking pussy.

2. He didn't want her to think that he wanted to kiss her just because she got a makeover.

"Why on't you believe in love, Wil?" he asked, and mentally slapped himself. He sounded like a wuss. But he was curious...

Willow opened her eyes and he could see all the sleep disappear from her face.

"Maddie asked me that too, just a few days ago. Hey! Do you wanna know something? But you can't tell anyone! Promise?" Teddy frowned.

"Promise. What is it?"

"Maddie's gonna do it with Chris. Yep, she's gonna make Chambers a man." He felt his jaw drop.

"Really?"

"Yeah. I mean, personally, I don't think it's a good idea, but I guess it's her life."

"Yeah," Teddy said, then frowned. "Hey, wait, why'd you change the subject?"

"I didn't mean to. Sorry," she said, and then frowned. "I guess I don't believe in love cuz I've never seen it last."

"Oh."

"Yeah. Well, I'm gonna go to bed," she said and rolled over. Teddy leaned back and stared at the ceiling, his mind drifting back to summer two years ago.
