I DO NOT OWN ANYONE OR ANYTHING IN THIS STORY BESIDES THE OC'S.
Julie's Point of View-
When I heard the door click shut and the lock being locked on the door after the four words were uttered in the sexy Scottish accent that Drew had. I tried to push aside the nerves, clear my thoughts and any other sensation I was feeling at the moment to be more sensible at the moment. I didn't want Drew know how I was feeling because if he knew that I was nervous or scared or if I even remotely liked him then he would immediately knew we wouldn't need to have this conversation.
"Do I have a choice?" I asked as I pushed the drawer of my dresser shut, "Wade's not going to like the fact that you locked both of us in here." I said turning around putting a hand on my waist as I tossed the swimsuit onto the bed.
"Wade can deal with it." Drew said.
"It'll be your funeral." I said as I sat onto the corner of my bed waiting for this conversation to start and mainly wanted him to talk since he was the one that initiated it.
"Do you like me?" Drew asked blatantly.
"I don't know…" I said shrugging.
"If you don't know then why'd you kiss me back at the park?"
"I don't know…I have been fighting these feelings but it's hard when you are so nice and you are such a great kisser and it's…we have been spending so much time together and we have grown together so much…."
"That doesn't answer anything." Drew said as he sat on the bed beside me and I watched as his hand reached across grasping mine in his. "Julie, I truly like you and I have had these feelings for a while and I have now gotten the guts to admit them to you and I understand if you don't feel the same…" Drew said as he rubbed at the back of my hand with his thumb.
"I didn't say that I don't feel the same…"
"So…." Drew said.
"I think I like you too Drew…I'm just scared, what if we don't work out? Would it ruin our friendship?" I asked.
"It won't ruin our friendship….we are friends first and foremost, we just get to do more cool things like this." He said as he leant forward pressing his lips to mine as his free hand ran through my hair, I allowed a moan to escape and vibrate against his lips before his lips slowly pulled back from mine. "Think about it sweetie." He said as he stood up heading towards my door, I watched as he stopped to unlock my door and I slowly stood to my feet as he turned the knob pulling my door open.
"Drew…" I said as he stopped mid-door frame turning to look at me, "I want to." I said as a smile spread across his face as one came across mine as well as he slid back into my room pushing the door shut behind him as he reached out grabbing my hand pulling me towards his embrace where he wrapped his arms around my waist resting on the arch of my back holding me there as I was pressed up against his bare chest and my hands wrapped around his neck playing with his hair before we met in the middle for a kiss. When the kiss broke, he rested his forehead against mine and you couldn't make the smiles leave neither of our faces until the one thing got pushed into my head, "What about Wade?"
"What about him?" Drew asked.
"He's going to kill you if he finds out what we are doing in here and if he finds out we are dating…you know how protective he is…" I said as I broke from his embrace pacing across my room running a hand through my hair.
"Calm down, he won't kill me and it can't be that hard to tell him…hell we can wait a little bit because let's be honest we can be touchy feely and say it's for the storyline…"
"Is that going to suffice? I'm going to want to go out with my boyfriend."
"Then we can sneak around that…we are going to have to start bunking together sometime and we can sneak around somehow until then….I'll talk to Stephan and see if he will vouch for us…we will break it to Wade when it's right….just trust me babe…" Drew said as I felt him wrap his arms around my waist pulling me towards his embrace and he kissed at my neck.
"I hope you're right." I said as I let out a breath when a knock came to the door, "One minute…" I yelled before I turned around, "In the closet." I said pushing him into the closet and shut the door to the closet to hide him as I headed to the door pulling it open.
"What's taking you so long and have you seen Drew?" Wade asked.
"Oh, I had trouble finding my suit and I just now found it….have you checked his car?" I asked curiously knowing that the bathroom door was open so he would know Drew wasn't in there.
"No, he may have went out there to grab your present…hurry up, we want to play pool volleyball." Wade said.
"I'll be right out." I said as he nodded as I watched him turn around and head back down the hall and disappear into the living room heading out to the patio before I shut the door going to the closet to let Drew out. "Go before Wade gets more suspicious." I said.
"One last kiss." He said as he held one finger up to symbolize one.
"Just one." I said as I slowly stood up to my tip toes pressing my lips against his for another passionate kiss, I couldn't help the smile that spread across my lips under his before we broke it unfortunately and we were both smiling. "Now get out Scots, I got to get in my swim suit." I said pushing him towards the door.
"I'm going, I'm going." Drew said as he left my room, I closed the door behind him and locked it so I could change into my one piece swim suit I had pulled out before I headed out of the room.
