A/N: It's been forever, but I have serious writers block on this story!

Once the crowd around us died down John and I walked hand in hand back outside. Upon stepping out of the confines of the house we were flagged over by Rachael and Gabi sitting on the couches with others of our close friends. On our way over we stopped and chatted with those who wanted to congratulate us for finally coming to our senses.

John sat on the longer couch next to Kennedy, pulling me on top of his lap and wrapping his arms tightly around my stomach, nuzzling his face in the crook of my neck, and placing a soft, sweet kiss there. I was certainly not objecting.

"Aw look at them, they're so cute." Garrett cooed, causing laughter to erupt from Kennedy, Pat, Eric and Jared.

"It brings a tear to my eye." Tim faked sadness, wiping an imaginary tear from under his eye.

"Shut up, you guys are such dicks." I rolled my eyes at them. They are so immature.

"Hey, now; don't start getting all pissy on us young lady." Eric wagged his finger at me.

"Suck my dick." I retorted.

"I'll leave that to John." He smirked.

"She doesn't even have a dick." John defended me.

"Aw, you ruined it." All the guys and I yelled at John for his last fact.

"How would you know?" Garrett raised his eyebrows, jokingly testing John.

John face started to blush profusely.

I turned my self around on his lap, positioning myself so that I was now sitting sideways, able to kiss him cheek with ease. "It's okay sweetheart, I still love you."

He smiled and captured my lips between his. I could so get used to this.

"Get a room!" the guys simultaneously yelled together, unplanned.

"No." Rachael scolded them. "We don't want them going too fast." She was right, if I want us to stay together for a long while, then we'd need to keep our relationship in moderation.

"Couples are cute at the beginning stages." Gabi sighed in awe of us.

"Don't you mean sickening?" Kennedy pretended to gag.

"Whatever." She rolled her eyes at him. He was going to get it later.

Rachael finally changed the subject from John and I. "So how did it happen?" she asked, and I looked at her puzzled. "Your break up, I mean." She clarified.

I moved myself to the initial position in which I was sitting on John's lap beforehand. "We were saying goodbye and he told me he loved me." Almost everyone's mouth dropped, for some reasons, and I felt John's face, which was nuzzling, searching, and kissing the areas between my shoulder blade and my neck, go still. "Then when I didn't respond he asked if it was because of John, I said yes." Their expressions went back to ease, knowing that I didn't feel the same way as Nathan did me, due to the handsome man positioned under my butt, who now placed one soft, long kiss where he was kissing beforehand. "He said he knew it by the way we were with each other. And then we left." I concluded, watching smiles erupt on all of their faces. John in turn tightened his arms around me, squeezing me closer to him. I rested my back into his body, letting him hold me like a child

"I want an ex like him; he was so cool with it." Rach cooed.

"Yeah, he's very understanding. It's one thing I respect about him."

"Aww." My two best girlfriends cooed in awe together.

"Yup, but we wouldn't have stayed together any longer anyway; we're both just too different."

"Well thank god you two aren't still together or else I'd have to smack some sense into you and force John to grow a pair. I don't think I could handle John's complaining any longer, nor the constant frustration of seeing you two flirt and then retract. I drove me fucking insane!" Rach revealed her frustration.

"Easy girl, we're together now." I reassured her.

"Finally." She fell back into Garrett's chest dramatically like the past two years of watching John and I drained her energy supply.

As the gathering rolled along and friends came and left, John and I stayed on the couch engrossed in each other; talking, flirting, caressing, and kissing. We had no intention of or no need to move; we had each other and that's all that mattered right now.

John was the first to break away from our little make-out session. "It's 1 AM." He stated, then going moving in again to capture my lips.

I let him peck my lips before I pulled away saying, "Time to go home."

His enchanting green orbs locked with my plain old brown ones. "You don't have to go home." He told me seriously.

"Then where would I stay?" I questioned, arching my eyebrow.

"My house." He shrugged like it was no big deal, obviously forgetting the last time I slept over "someone's" house.

"Remember what happened last time?"

"But this is different, we're actually together." he argued.

"Another reason why Ilene would flip." I smiled at his lack of common sense. "Use your noggin silly." I leaned in and pecked those sweet lips that I've so quickly become accustomed to.

"Reign check?" he raised his eyebrows, hopeful.

"Down boy, we have forever." I patted his leg.

"Mmm… forever sounds nice." He thought it over.

"Indeed it does." I agreed. Forever with John Cornelius O'Callaghan the fifth would be a wonderful world to live in.

John walked me all the way out to the front yard and to the driver's side of my car.

"Bye, John." I said, going to open the door so I could get in.

"Nah ah." He grabbed me by my wrist, turning me around to face him. He then proceeded to gently push me up against the side of my car and crash his lips to mine. I could tell he was loving this a little more than I was.

I was the one to pull away, gently placing a hand on John's chest to lightly push him away; then getting into my car. "Bye."

"Bye, love." He looked at me; I could see lust from our kiss coating his eyes.

I had this huge urge to blurt out "I love you." but I refrained due to the fact that we have only been official for a few hours.

On the way home my mind was clouded with the events of tonight, and how perfectly it ended; both for Nathan and me, and also the night itself. I parked my car in the driveway, all the lights inside the house were off, but the door was unlocked for me. I locked it once I was in and proceeded into my room to freshen up and have wonderfully blissful dreams.

It's a filler chapter, I know.
