This still takes place in Sophmore year, just so you know :D R&R and enjoy!

May 21st, 2008

Katrina's P.O.V:

At this point, I don't think that anything could ruin this night… I mean, not yet at least.

Me and Kendall had started dating back in November… actually, November 21st, to be exact. And, aside from the fact that today was mine and his 6th month anniversary, it was spring formal, and Kendall was taking me. Yeah, we were going in a big group of people, but it was still special… I mean, we've been dating half a year already.

Who knows what the future has in store for us?

My hair had grown out, to about 2 inches past my shoulders, but it was still blond. Tonight I had curled it, and in my opinion, it completed my look… that and the earrings that Kendall had bought me 3 months ago. They were just plain silver – and fake diamonds. But it didn't matter, that the diamonds were fake. Kendall was only human, and I would've probably shot him if he got me real diamonds. Okay, I keep skipping the point – the way that I feel about Kendall can't have a price attached to it. That's just that.

My dress was hot pink and slightly tight fitting. It ruffled out at the bottom, and had a diamond shaped brooch pinned in the middle, off to the right side. It had been my Grandmothers, before she died last October. My shoes were just plain sliver, with a 3 inch heel. (Hey, not like I was going to be wearing them much anyway!) My hair was curled, and the earrings sparkled whenever I moved my head.

I was putting the final touches on my makeup when I heard the doorbell ring. KENDALL! I grinned and made sure I looked perfect before running (and almost falling) down the stairs to answer the door.

"Hey Kat…" He said, grinning while looking at me. "You look amazing!" He said, giving me a small kiss on the cheek.

"Well, you're not too shabby yourself." I said, smiling.

He was wearing a black tux, with a hot pink tie to match my dress. Before, I thought that whenever couples coordinated, it was kinda cheesy. But, now that im actually in a real relationship, it really was cute, and special.

My mom walked out from the kitchen and smiled at us. "Kendall." She said, nodding towards him.

"How are you, Mrs. Malone?" Kendall asked, smiling.

That's the thing that actually won my mom over with Kendall – he was so damn respectful!

Don't get me wrong, it was awesome, and at the same time kinda funny… watching my mom and Kendall talk. It was kinda weird, but I loved it. My mom was my best friend, and if my best friend didn't like Kendall, then I was screwed.

She did what all moms do, took about a million pictures – but I didn't mind. I wanted to remember this night forever.

She kissed my cheek and told me to be back by 11 as me and Kendall walked out the door.

"Okay mom – love you!" I said, smiling as she handed me a wrapped gift.

"Love you too sweetie." She said, winking.

I smiled to myself as I slid into Kendall's car and buckled myself in.

Kendall got into the driver's seat and started the car.

"Before I forget." I smiled and handed him the present. "Happy anniversary babe."

He smiled, leaned over and kissed me. "Happy anniversary Kat." He mumbled against my lips.

I smiled as he moved back into his seat, slowly unwrapping the gift.

He finished opening it and his face lit up as he opened it up.

"A scrapbook?" He asked, still flipping through the pages and reading the captions.

"Of me and you." I said, smiling at him.

He got to the last page – which was my favorite.

It was a simple picture of me and him, standing in the middle of a hockey rink, his arms wrapped tightly around my waist, and my arms thrown around his neck – kissing.

The caption was simple – "My first kiss with you, and the best day of my life."

He read it over and over, just grinning. He finally closed the book and looked at me. "Thank you." He said, smiling.

I nodded, smiling back.

"BUT, you just have to wait for your surprise." He said, laughing, as he pulled out of my driveway and began driving to the school.

"You didn't have to get me anything Kendall – being with you is enough." I said, leaning my head against the window, looking at him.

"You made me this amazing, and beautiful scrapbook of the past 6 months – I think you deserve something pretty damn special, don't you think?" He said, looking over at me.

I shook my head. "You know that I love scrapbooking… it was fun."

He reached over and grabbed my hand, lacing his fingers with mine and gently running his thumb across mine. I smiled – he knew that I loved it when he did that.

Sometimes, when I was with him, I felt like nothing bad could ever happen to me… like, even in the worst of times he would always be there for me. It actually felt like we belonged together.

XXXXX

And then we were at the dance – the big group of us.

Me and Kendall;

James and his girlfriend, Amanda

Carlos and his girlfriend, Jocelyn.

And then there were just more couples, that weren't exactly together.

Like, Logan and my best friend Cassie,

And then there was Hayley and Jacob.

So, there was a group of 8 of us, and even though there were only 3 actual couples, it was definitely obvious that Logan and Cassie were into each other, as were Hayley and Jake.

When I say that there was a group of 8 of us, I don't literally mean that – we all kinda separated throughout the night, every couple was by themselves. Honestly, I didn't pay much attention to anyone else, besides Kendall. We danced – A LOT.

But it was fun, and exhilarating, and the best way to spend your 6th month with someone.

When 'You and Me' by Lifehouse started playing, Kendall smiled and pulled me close to him – it was our song.

Thing is, I really don't know how it became our song.

It just did, apparently.

I smiled, wrapping my arms around his neck and laying my head against his shoulder. He wrapped his arms around my waist and I could feel him place a gentle kiss on the top of my head.

I smiled, but was disappointed when the song ended.

I pulled my head off of Kendall's shoulder and smiled at Kendall, leaning up and kissing him.

He pulled away and rested his forehead against mine.

"I...I love you."

I pulled my head away from his, "you… you do?" I said, smiling.

He nodded slowly.

"I love you too Kendall." I said, throwing my arms around his neck and kissing him again, to which he responded by wrapping his arms around me and kissing back.

After finally breaking apart (because of our need for breathing) he reached into his pants pocket and grabbed a small box.

"Happy anniversary babe." He said, smiling as he extended his hand for me to take the box.

"Kendall," I sighed. "Couldn't saying that you love me have been enough? " I asked with a small laugh.

He shook his head. "Nope."

I smiled, "Of course not." I said, taking the box out of his hands and opening it with shaking hands.

And I'll admit – I was amazed.

It was… perfect. It looked like something out of a movie - something that every girl imagines getting from their boyfriends.

Just a small, simple ring.

Yes, I said ring.

A small silver ring with a red heart in the middle with '2008' carved into it.

My jaw dropped and I just gaped at the ring in the box.

"You like it?" Kendall asked quietly.

I looked up and him and nodded slowly, a smile slowly spreading across my face. "I love it!" I said.

He grinned. "Good, im glad you do." He said, taking the ring out of the box and sliding it onto my finger.

I started down at it, a grin plastered onto my face.

"I love it! ... I love you Kendall." I said, looking up at him.

"Yeah, I know" he said, cockily, and then he laughed softly. "I love you too." He said, leaning down and kissing me.

Perfect ending to the best night of my life… I really never wanted it to end.
