Thank you so much for all the reviews! I so appreciate it! This chapter is a little slower, sorry for that! I promise it will start to pick up real soon we just have to lay down the foundation before we really get into it!

Last time on Second chances! Lara Jean moved home and is living with Chris and Trevor. Lucas complies a plan to set up LJ and PK after Gen and John's Engagement Party. We also learned that Peter and Lara Jean still love each other!

Lara Jean's POV

I woke up the next morning and I had 45 minutes until Chris and I planned on getting breakfast. I took this time to make some coffee get dressed and write a little. I was sitting at the table when Chris and Trevor walk into the kitchen laughing. I could tell they had been canoodling before they came out here. Chris' hair was ruffled and Trevor's uniform was wrinkled in a few different places. "You ready to go LJ?" Chris asked a little out of breath.

"Yup! I just need to grab my keys. If you're still okay with dropping me off at my parents house after. I need to pick up my car and I'd like to visit with Dad and Trina." I said packing up my laptop. "Later do you want to go looking for dresses this afternoon, we only have a week to find a dress for the party and we know how picky I can get." I rambled on.

"Maybe we can stop and get a little something for underneath the dress to. If you know what I mean." Chris said raising her eyebrows up and down.

Trevor leaned down to kiss Chris. "Well on that note I'm going to work. I have to work a 12 hour shift today and after me and the boys we're going out for drinks. I'll be home kind of late. But I love you and I see you tonight." He kisses the top of her head and then winked at her as he left the apartment. Who would have ever thought that Mr. Popular Trevor and punk rocker Chris would fall in love. That they would get the happily ever after that I wanted when the letters got out. Chris must've caught me zoning out into my thoughts because edge started snapping her fingers in front of my face.

"Earth to LJ, you in there? LJ!" She finally yelled and pulled me out of my thoughts. I know it's a Saturday but we should probably get a move on it if you're wanting to get all that done today." She said throwing an arm across my shoulders and leading me out of the apartment. We made our way down the street to our apartment's parking lot laughing and joking about how we though this party was going to go. Once we made it to the small diner and ordered our food Chris looked at me with a very serious look. "LJ we need to talk about this dress situation. You have got to update your lingerie selection, it's time you jump back on that horse per say. I know you're still holding out for Peter but you got to at least try and move on in case he doesn't want to get back together." She gave me a sympathetic look.

"I know there's a chance he won't want to get back together but I have to try. I never told you this but about 5 months ago Gen called me. She wanted to apologize for all the trouble she caused with Peter and John Ambrose. She told me she never meant for any of it to go this far. She really truly loves John and I'm happy for her." I looked at Chris because she knew where this was headed. "She told me that her and Peter still talk and are still really great friends. She told me he still loves me. She also wanted me to know that they never slept together. It was part of the reason they always fought. Peter wanted to wait. He never said anything but he wanted to wait for someone he truly loves. Chris maybe this is my chance for my happily ever after. That's why I came home." I looked down at my feet. "Chris I gotta do this, please help me."

Chris eyed me up and down. "Okay." She agreed reluctantly. "But you have to let me dress you and I mean head to toe and everything underneath."

My jaw dropped. "What am I getting myself into?" I mumbled. "Fine you can dress me. Just please, please, please help me get him back." I begged.

"Don't worry about that, when I'm done with you he won't be able to keep his eyes off of you." Chris smiled. "We have to get going if we want to get the dress I saw last week. It will be perfect! I put it on hold for you but the deadline is today at noon." Chris stressed, the dress store was all the way across town and it was already 11:30.

We made it too the dress store with ten minutes to spare. Chris had a yellow floor length sweetheart neckline, strapless dress saved for me. It just so happened to not only be in my size but it was also on clearance so that was a complete score. I already had a pair of heels that matched perfect! Now onto the undergarments. We headed over to the mall that was one town over. We wanted to avoid running into anyone we knew. As we walked into the Victoria Secret I saw the most beautiful yellow corset set and I just had to get it. I knew Chris was thinking the same thing because she made a bee line straight for it. "LJ what size are you?"

I looked at her with kind of a blank stare. "Chris, I have no idea. I haven't bought anything like this like ever. Even when I was with John I never bought anything. It was just, it never felt right."

"LJ are you serious no offense, but you gotta keep things spicy. Guys get kinda bored when you're too vanilla." She looked at me apologetically. "I love ya kid!" She said throwing an arm around my shoulder as she lead me too the changing room with like three different sizes. Once we stepped in the changing area she shoved me and the sets into a changing stall. "Here try these on and let me know what you think."

I tried on the Medium first it sort of fit but I really wasn't sure. "Chris I need your opinion." I said as I opened the door. "Is this too big?"

She looked me up and down. "Try the small one on real quick."

I stepped back into the stall, I slipped the smaller one on and instantly knew it was the right one. "Oh wow." I said shocked with how beautiful it was. The yellow flowers covered all the right things while balancing my skin tone. Since it was the beginning of spring I was still pretty pale, I had go to the tanning salon a few times over the course of my book tour but it had faded over the last few weeks. Looking in the mirror made my mind wander to what could happen if Peter lets go of the past and gets lost in the moment. I imagined the way his lips would feel on my neck as he kissed his way down my neck. The way his fingers would dance across my skin as he carefully removed my clothes. The way his chocolate brown eyes pierce through the deepest depths of my soul, like he could see right through me. I was getting caught up in the moment, when Chris yelled through the door.

"LJ, you okay in there?" she knocked on the door.

"Just a second." I opened the door to show her how it looked.

"Wow LJ, you're going to knock his socks off." She was shocked. "You have to get this. Even if nothing happens at the party. I know he'll come around eventually. Hey we should probably get going, I told Lucas I would meet him for lunch. You still want to pick up your car right?

I slipped back into the dressing room carefully changing out of the lingerie set and redressing as quickly as I could. "Yes please! I would feel bad having to always ask you for rides when my car is just sitting in my dad's driveway. Plus it'll be good to get out spend some time with my dad and sisters now that I'm in the same town as them again." I said stepping out of the dressing room with the set in my hand. We walked up to the register to pay.

"Girl, I hear ya since my mom moved away I feel like all I do is spend time at the apartment or at school. Trev and I are kind of domestic. He works a lot and when he doesn't work we have people to the house. We used to be so fun." I grabbed my bag off the counter and we headed out to her car. "I do need to tell you something."

She paused waiting for my response. "What is it?" I looked at her worried.

"Peter, Trevor, and Lucas are all on the same police squad. Actually I'm incredibly surprised he didn't come over last night. Whenever Lucas is over Peter is usually there too. Those three are the three amigos. They do everything together." She looked so sad as we drove to my dad's house. "Lara Jean, I seriously missed you these last few years. I never made any girl-friends, I just don't fit in with girls." She got silent.

"Chris, I'm so sorry I was gone for so long! I want you to know I'm not going anywhere! Before I was done with my last stop on the book tour I told my publicist this was going to be my home base. I told her on my next tour I would be flying in and out from here and my down time will be spent here with my family and friends." I leaned over and hugged her as she parked in my dad's driveway. "I'll be home kind of late, my sisters want to have dinner all together."

"Okay do you have your apartment key?" She smiled at me.

"Yup right here. I'll text you when I'm on my way home, so you don't have to worry." I smiled as I got out of the car. "See ya! Have fun at lunch with Lucas!"

"Have fun with your family! See ya at home!" I closed the door and she drove off as I went inside.
