AN: Hello. This is the last chapter. sad.

Anyway. Here it goes.

I pulled over outside of her house and got out. Walking up to the door I had a good feeling in the pit of my stomach. Tonight was definitely going to be a good one. I knocked on the door and a moment later the big scruffy man who was Cat's older brother opened it.

"Oh it's you." He said dully, but he didn't even have time to call Cat's name before she came rushing down the stairs.

"Hi Robbie!" She yelled as she jumped down the two remaining steps and advanced towards me, smiling widely before throwing her arms around my neck and hugging me quickly.

"Are you ready?" I asked when she let go.

"Of course I am." She giggled.

"Good." I smiled.

"Byee!" She called into her house so that everyone would know she was going. Then she walked ahead of me out onto the porch.

We sat down in my car and she directly started interrogating me.

"Where are we going? What tea did you bring? I want to know Robbie come on!"

I chuckled at her eagerness. But shook my head to all of her questions. Didn't want to spoil this.

"Cat, I want it to be a surprise. We won't have another 1 year tea-aversery ever again, right?"

She nodded, let out another small giggle and turned on the radio instead. Once again she was playing around, switching the stations and laughing loudly while doing so. If I could, I would've rather ditched the road and just watched her instead. But I didn't get my license because of watching pretty girls, and I honestly didn't want to ruin this evening by crashing into a tree so I kept my focus forward.

I drove for a good while during which Cat only laughed and played with the radio. When I finally pulled over she was almost crying of laughter. I looked at her and all I could do was just break into a huge smile and stay that way. She was just incredible.

"Are we there?" Cat asked.

"Nope." I said. "I need you to put this on."

I held up a black blindfold for her to put over her eyes and she gasped slightly.

She put the blindfold over her eyes while, true to character giggled slightly and exclaiming a loud "Yay."

When the blindfold was safe and secure over her eyes and I'd made sure she couldn't see anything I started driving again.

When I pulled over the second time Cat was basically jumping in her seat out of excitement.

"Can I take it off?"

"Not yet." I answered as I got out of the car and walked around it to let her out.

I then led her way to our final destination and untied the blindfold so she could see.

"Wow..." Was all she said and I smiled.

"Do you like it?"

"I love it!" She screamed.

We were in Maggie's Teashop. The back room. The walls were covered with shelves on which different kinds of tea were lined up and in the middle was a small table and on each side of it an old fashioned chair for us to sit in. On the table was a big Teapot filled with hot water and it was steaming slightly. Christmas lights hung all over across the room, even though it was the complete wrong season. Maggie had helped me put them up the same day. According to her it was the coziest thing there was.

Cat was jumping up and down beside me.

"Calm down Cat." I laughed as I led her up to the table. "Have a seat."

"This is so cute!" She exclaimed as I began pouring the tea into our cups. "I love it!"

"I knew you would. And I really wanted today to be special." I smiled.

It was true. I really wanted it to be special. Not because I was planning it to be romantic or because I wanted to make a move or anything. (To be honest it was kind of romantic.) But because it was exactly one year since we had begun this whole thing and because this whole thing was special to me and our friendship. And I wanted her to know that this meant a lot me.

We drank our tea and we talked and we had a great time. Ever since I confronted her in the library things had started going back to normal. It wasn't completely back to the way it was before. I don't think neither Cat nor me would ever fully forget what had happened during this last year. But we chose not to think about it. After my apology to Cat she had insisted it wasn't really my fault. When she'd thought about it, she had concluded she had been the one acting like a jerk and we decided that we had both done stuff we weren't proud of and that we really didn't want to talk about it again. So now, we were enjoying each other's company.

Maggie checked in on us once and Cat was so thrilled to meet her since I had told her a lot about Maggie and Maggie was so thrilled to meat Cat that they ended up talking to each other for a long time and when they were finished the tea had gotten cold.

"Do you want to go for a walk or something?" I asked Cat. I really didn't feel like going home. I was having too much of a great time for it to end already.

"Sure." She said, smiling.

As we left the shop I saw Maggie wink at me. I wasn't sure why. I mean. I really didn't have those intentions. Or did I? I did still love Cat, I knew that, and I was pretty sure she still loved me too. But we had agreed that afternoon when we made up that it would be best if we were just friends for a while. But how long was a while.

Cat and I strolled around, at first not talking about anything in particular and then we fell into some sort of comfortable silence. After a while we decided to sit down. We were at the park where we had had one of those early tea parties and we sat down on a bench not too far away from where we had been then.

"Thanks Robbie." Cat said after another moment of silence.

"For what?"

"I don't know. Everything." She smiled and I smiled back at her. I realized this was one of those sincere moment that was quite rare with Cat. She was usually just bubbly, happy, free-spirited. She didn't really talk much about serious things. But it happened, and now she was doing it again. And it made me happy that she was doing it with me, again.

"Tonight was really great." She stated.

"I know." I said and for a moment we just sat there and looked into each other's eyes.

And that's when I decided to tell her.

"Cat... You know how we said before that it'd be better if we were just friends for a while."

She nodded slowly.

"When do you think that while is over?"

She bit her lip. And then, before I even had time to think pressed her lips against mine and kissed me. At first I was just shocked but then I started kissing her back. And it was the best feeling in the whole wide world because she was my best friend, and she loved me, and I loved her. And no matter what happened we would make it work.

I guess that was always what was meant to happen all along. It just took it's time and it had taken some twists and turns to get there, but that didn't really matter. All that mattered was that we were right there, on a park bench kissing each other and neither of us really wanting to stop.

But after a minute or so we did anyway.

"How about now?" Cat giggled. I had honestly completely forgotten what we had been talking about before she kissed me. It must've shown on my face because Cat smiled again. I blinked a couple of times before I remembered.

"Yeah. Now seems fine."

And her face cracked up and she looked happier than ever, and I found myself doing what I had always wanted to do. Kissing her smile, her beautiful candy colored smile. Her lips were soft, she tasted like tea and everything was perfect.

I love tea.

I guess that is something not a lot of people know about me. It's my biggest addiction. I love it. It calms my nerves, it makes feel all warm and it's also freaking delicious. Best beverage in the world.

The funny thing is, Cat has quite the same effect on me. And more to that.

I love tea. Almost as much as I love Cat.

AN: So. Now to the very long AN that usually takes place at the end of these kind of stories.
