Hey you guys, I'm back with another chapter! It's been so much writing this story for all of u! Anyway, thank u all so much for reviewing! Rock on!

Last chappie: the gang took Lita back to Ken's house and locked her in the basement. Ken showed up a half-hour later.

This chapter: He ran up to me, panting, and said, "I got a spare key after

school today. I'm letting you out so you can do your homework, and such."

He unlocked me, and I let my arms hang down at my sides, massaging them

carefully. He took one of my wrists, and carefully worked some feeling into

it. I felt my face flush up instantly at his touch, and my gaze hit the floor.

Ever so quietly, and cautiously, he put his finger under my chin, and asked

me, "Is it ok if I give you a hug?" he was so cautious with me, so I nodded a

yes. His strong arms encircled my small body, and I wrapped my arms

around him. I could sense this feeling of safeness surrounding us, sending all

of the pain away. Everything faded away, and all I thought about was us, and

how perfect we seemed to be together. He whispered in my ear, "I love you,

Lita." Then he stood and went upstairs. I stood there, frozen in spot, too

shocked to believe what had just happened.

Eventually, I walked upstairs after him. I found him in the kitchen,

trying to make lasagna. I smiled and walked over to him, and asked, "Do

you want some help with that?" He turned to me, and smiled. Ooh, my heart

skipped a beat and melted at the same time. I helped him in making the

lasagna, and when it was done, he took it out of the oven and we sat down to

eat. We were enjoying a pleasant conversation when all of a sudden; one of

his legs hit mine. He apologized and moved it. Later, it happened again, but

he didn't move it. *Note, this part was used in All-American Girl and I don't

own that book, don't sue, but please read it! It's a good book!* I could feel

my face getting hot and I looked away. I couldn't seem to look back up to

his gaze. I quickly excused myself and started to clean up. He walked over

to me and started to help me clean up. I washed, and he dried the dishes.

Once we had finished, I said to him, "thank you for. well, everything." I

stood up on my tiptoes and kissed him on the cheek. He turned beet red, but

not as red as I turned.

He mumbled out, "Your welcome." After that moment, we turned and

went to do our homework in silence. Eventually it turned night and it was

time for us to go to bed. We went downstairs, and he told me, "I need to lock

you up now." He made a nice place for me to sit on, and he locked me up.

He wished me a good night, and pleasant dreams. Ah, dreams do come true!

It was an easy night, thanks to Ken. Ah Ken, my night in shining armor!

The next morning, Ken whispered, "Lita!" until I woke up.

When I opened my eyes groggily, I noticed that I was unlocked and

on the floor in a sleeping bag with a pillow. "Wha? What happened?" I

asked Ken.

He answered, "I uncuffed you when I realized that you were asleep,

because I knew that you wouldn't run away." he helped me up, and I crashed

into him. That was not on purpose! Well, okay, it was. But I felt that it was

needed. My face was just inches away from his. We got closer and closer.

We're going to kiss!

Well, that's it for this chapter! Plz drop off reviews on what you think should happen, cause I'll be glad to read them (I may not go by them.) I don't mind if you give me flames either. Thank you!
