Hey everyone! Sorry it's been taking me forever to update, but very busy week. Plus I'm on vacation this Saturday through the next, so no updating! Sorry!

The whole day is kind of a blur. Trevor persistently followed me to all my classes carrying my books and once even opening a door. As the day went on my annoyance decreased. Although I can't say that for the number of people who ogled at us. I mean they didn't even try to hide it.

As the last bell ring I walked to my locker, in my usual slow leisurely sort, then all the sudden Trevor appeared. Again, like he had been all day. He didn't say anything but just walked beside me. When I got to my locker Becky wasn't there which is odd, she always waits for me. I stuffed my books in my locker and looked at Trevor. He was watching me. I looked at him for really the first time today. He had on faded khaki pants, a blue sweater type thing and brown tennis shoes. His shirt showed of the muscles in his chest, stomach and arms. His blonde hair hung a little over his forehead and his Caribbean blue eyes look at me with an emotion I can't explain.

All these years we fought and I was content with hating him and him hating me. He was an annoying soccer snob and I was Monster Girl. I've never seen this side of him before. His eyes were open letting me see his soul and his face gave away an emotion of not disliking, but something else. And I realized right then that I loved Trevor. I love Trevor. I love Trevor. I said it over and over again finally figuring it out. All these years those strange random draws to him I'd had at times now made sense. In fear of loving each other we decide we would hate each other instead. And before I knew what I was saying I blurted out:

"I love you." Trevor smiled and it reached his eyes. His hand reached for mine and pulled me into a hug to which I didn't exist like normal but instead fell into his arms. His warm strong comforting arms.

"I know," Trevor said. "I love you too." I pulled away to look at him and I had no doubt that he meant it. Just then he leaned down and kissed me. In front of everyone in the hall ways. It was a warm passionate kiss. A kiss that released so many bottled up emotions. And then Trevor broke away and kissed me forehead. He took my hand and led me to his car and drove me home. Then he turned to me and said:

"I'm not sure if this is unnecessary to ask or not but Raven, will you give me the pleasure of being my girlfriend?"

I smiled at him. "Of course."
