Owen looked at Annabel, completely shocked at the kiss, but not wanting to let it go that soon, he placed his palm on her cheek. "I know that, Annabel, you don't have to say it."

"But I want to say it, I love you, Owen. I'll say it as much as I want to." Annabel giggled, she was being childish, and she knew it.

Owen pulled her closer until their lips were mere inches apart, "I love you, as well, a thousand times over, Annabel." He said before he pressed against her lips, rubbing his tongue against her lips for acceptance, which he hastily received. He was nothing, if not gentle, when he slid his hand around her neck lightly before he broke away. He smiled at Annabel, "Where do you want to go know?"

'What? I thought we went to the concert tonight, and besides it's getting late and…" she stated in a whisper before she got what he was asking. "Oh." She smiled and laced her fingers in Owen's, "Wherever you want to go is fine with me."

"That doesn't help me much." Owen sighed as he gently squeezed his hand around hers. He pulled away from the curb to mindlessly drive somewhere. He had no idea where to go yet, might as well just end up good and lost with the one person he cared about. He turned on the radio, turning on the opening song of the concert that night, wondering if Annabel would remember still.

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom

I want you in my room

Let's spend the night together

From now until forever

Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom

I wanna go Boom, Boom

Let's spend the night together

Together in my room

Annabel giggled, "You know you don't have to play this song of all of them." She rested her head against his should, careful not to get in his line of sight for the road. " I already know, Owen."

"All the more reason to play the song, is it not?" Owen stated as he kept his eyes on the road while tilting his head to hers. He could feel her, more than hear her, laughing, and it wasn't long before he joined. When had things gotten so easy for them to say or do? He still remembered the earlier days of their junior year, before that bastards hearing. God, Owen hated him for what he did, not only to Annabel, although that was most of it, but to all of the girls. Owen still couldn't fathom as to why he had been out to a concert the night before his hearing.

"Owen, what's wrong?" Annabel said lightly for beside him.

"Just thinking about Will. Why?" he replied.

"You got all tense all of a sudden. But don't think about him anymore."

"Easier said than done, I'm still pissed at what he did."

"Well, so is everyone he affected, but that's not going to change the past now its it?"

He sighed, "No, no it's not" He pulled onto a curb in a random street, as he had thought before, but when he looked, he realized that it was the radio station.

"Owen, just stop worrying about Will for one night, please?"

He cut the engine, turned and pressed his forehead against hers, "Whatever your command is, Annabel, it is my right to follow." He smiled.

She giggled and smiled back up at him. "So, are we going inside or staying right here?

"Whatever you want to do, although I think someone else is doing their radio show currently."

"Well then, I guess we're staying here." She said while climbing onto his lap and lightly kissing him. When he returned her kiss more intensely, she smiled against his lips and wrapped her arms around his neck.
