All right, I have officially given up on the 10 reviews. I will update whenever I feel like it. My story, I feel is not that good so far, but I am not giving up on it quite yet. I would love reviews, they are the best. I would like you to check out my friend, xXxLolaxXx, please, ( She has a lot of stories on Veronica Mars. Lola is my inspiration to keep writing. She reviews faithfully and is a good example to Sasha (hint, hint). Please enjoy the story and give me reviews!

Back To The Story:

Lena:

"So, Philo," Lena said. "How about you run down to the movie store and I'll clean up a little bit."

"Sounds like a perfect plan. So what do you like, as in food and movies." Asked Philo.

"Well," said Lena. "I like everything."

"All right, I'll be back!" said Philo.

Kostos

"It was never meant to be, it just wasn't. You know it!" Kostos told himself angrily. "Any girl that you like, Philo gets. Don't you know that by now? Stupid, stupid, stupid . . . You know that, you really do." Kostos rambled on into the night.

Lena

After scurrying around, trying to throw everything into a neat, organized pile, Lena stood back proudly to observe her rush-job.

"Wow," said Philo as ho came back in. "You are really good at rush jobs!" "I'm not just good at rush jobs." Said Lena. "Wow, my opinion about you has just changed drastically." Said Philo.

"Why did you think that I was a good girl?" asked Lena. "Well, I guess you just seemed the type." Said Philo, carefully.

"Hmm," Lena mused. "Well, I suppose, to be totally honest, I usually an a good girl. But I . . . this is hard to say . . . but . . . well, you make me want to dot things . . . things that . . . things that I've never wanted to do before." Lena blushed and turned the other way.

Kostos

"What if Philo takes advantage of her." Thought Kostos. "I should go up there. No, I won't, she deserves it." Still, Kostos is rambling on into the night.

Lena

"Lena," Philo said softly, advancing towards her. He took her cheek into his hand and gently turned her face to him. "Let's take this slow," he said, "there's no need to rush things. You're young and you've probably never done this before. Let's just have a nice calm evening, watch a movie, and eat junk food."

"Thank you, Philo. You're making this a lot easier. Although, is snuggling allowed? I'm a real cuddly kinda girl." Said Lena, a smile forming on her lips.

"You know what?" asked Philo. "What?" said Lena. "We can snuggle and if you don't make my arm fall asleep, you can have a good night kiss, too!" Philo said, smiling.

Kostos

"Maybe he was helping her with something." Kostos thought anxiously. She seemed to want to know something when he had first met her. Maybe Philo was helping her. "Yes, that's it," said Kostos to the empty air around him.

Philo

Even though his heart was pounding and he could feel himself getting harder by the minute, Philo refused to let himself go. "If this relationship is going to make it, I have to take it slow." He thought.

Lena

Even though her heart was pounding and she was ready to let go, she refused the emotion. She told herself to take it slow or she would end up hurt. "If you love yourself, you'll wait," she repeated her mother's words. Oh, how she missed her, yet this was no time to think of her. She told herself to relax and enjoy the time she had now.

Well, that's it for now. I hope you like it and I want you to tell me what you think. And as I asked last time, please inform me if my chapter are:

too long

too short or

just right

This information is greatly appreciated. Lola, I hope you like it, I'd be so disappointed in myself if you didn't. Everyone, thanks for continuing to read.

Since it's 10 days until Christmas, I will wish you all

Merry Christmas!

In case I don't update until then.

Love,

Aribee
