We finished dinner and then curled up on the couch for our his and hers favorite movie marathon. "I can't believe one of your favorite movies is the Goonies!" I said in mock exasperation. "What? It's a good movie" Daniel protested. "Yeah if you're a 7th grader!" I replied before bursting out in squealing laughter because Daniel was tickling me.
"Stop! Daniel Stop it!" I squeal and then he was on top of me and we were gazing into each other's eyes and I was pulling him down and into a scorching hot and passionate kiss. Then we were making out and clothes were being tugged at.
"Daniel… Let's take this upstairs." I whispered between kissed. "Are you sure?" he asked looking me in the eyes trying to read them for any signs that I was unsure. "More than anything in my life." I answered honestly. So I grabbed his hand and led him upstairs to my bedroom where we resumed our makeout session and followed it up with a passionate night of love making.
I woke up the next morning with Daniel's arms wrapped around me. I turned around in his arms to face him. "How is it you wake up looking this gorgeous?" Daniel asked. "I don't! You're just half asleep." I laughed. "Mmm then come here I like this dream" he replied pulling me closer and reigniting the passion we shared last night.
After another hour spent in bed we got up and I made us some egg white omelets. After breakfast we shared coffee on the porch swing listening to the waves crashing on the beach. "Can we just live in this moment forever?" No work, no pasts, no negativity, no complications. Just me, you, the waves, and the memories of last night playing through our minds." I asked leaning my head on Daniel's shoulders. He grabbed my hand and brought it to his lips before saying "last night was perfect. But the parts you want to exclude, those are part of what makes us who we are." His response shocked me and caused my heart to skip a beat. That was when I realized that I was in love with Daniel Grayson.
"Shouldn't you be getting ready for your internship?" I asked getting up and going back inside." "What's wrong?" Daniel asked confused following me. "Nothing but you have to get ready for work and I have a charity board meeting I have to get ready for." Daniel let out a sigh of frustration before running a hand through his hair and kissing my cheek. "Can we talk about this tonight? My parents anniversary dinner is tonight, be my plus one?" he asked hopefully. "Ok! Just let me know what time to get there." I answered and he left.
I spent the rest of my day trying to reel in my thoughts and emotions, but to no avail. I was struggling with my feelings for Daniel and my plan for revenge. Could I give up my revengenda for a life of happiness with Daniel. Even though it would mean watching Victoria and Conrad getting to spend their lives plotting to get everything they want. I didn't think I could go through with my revenge and handle Daniel hating me for destroying his family.
