Hey! I just finished this... It's longer than the others and I truly hope that you enjoy it and let me know what you think. I feel like the ending of this chapter was kind of shitty, but please bare with me this time. My head is throbbing, my back is killing me and my momma just told me that I have fever. So, yeah. I'll promise I'll make it up to you if you don't like it.

Have a wonderful weekend :)

That night, the girls went back to bed with a content smile on each other's faces. They cuddled as close as they could and once they drifted to sleep their dreams were filled with images of sweet loving eyes and soft delicate caresses.

Morning came too fast and, surprisingly, Dianna was the first to wake up. Memories of last night came back to her mind as she inhaled Lea's shampoo scent. She smiled and kissed the top of the head resting on her collarbone as she remembered the way an 'I love you' sounded coming out of those sweet lips.

Truth be told, they hadn't even kissed, yet. No status of relationship had defined them and they certainly went to bed fully clothed.

She wanted to make this the right way and since it was her that actually confessed her feelings first, in her mind, it was a good idea to be the one asking her out on a date. And for that, she needed Chris and Naya's advice.

She also wanted them to know how everything had turned out; that, at the end, it had all been worth it. So, against her own will, she disentangled her arm from around Lea and replaced her own shoulder with a pillow.

Dianna was giddy with excitement. She couldn't wait to plan an actual date. Sure, it was her first time doing it, but the fact that it was with the girl she was in love with only made it sound better. She tiptoed towards the sliding window after grabbing her phone and decided to make the first call.

"I swear to God, Dianna. If this isn't something you couldn't wait to tell me, I will take the first flight to Cancun and kick your ass."

"Good morning to you, too, Nay. And shouldn't you be up, already? It's 8 in the morning."

She heard a low growl on the other side of the line. "No it isn't. Have you ever heard of time zones?... Yeah. It's 6 am in here."

Dianna winced. She knew Naya wasn't a morning person and kind of felt sorry for calling her, although this was something that certainly needed to be done.

"Sorry." She muttered. And the giddiness came back. "Oh gosh. Naya, I have to tell you something." She felt like a kid showing off his new video game, but she couldn't help it. Lea was in love with her.

She grinned at the thought.

"And…"

Right. "I told Lea."

Naya sprinted out of bed. "You told her what exactly?" She was wide awake now.

"The basics."

"Dammit, Dianna! Don't play with my feelings. Tell me the details!"

The blonde laughed. Leave it to Naya to react this way. "I couldn't sleep yesterday night so I decided to sit by the beach. Lea joined me a while after. We didn't talk for a few minutes and after that, you see me telling her that I was in love with her…" She trailed off for suspense; because she could, but really, she was grinning like an idiot on her side of the line.

"AND! You're giving me a stroke!"

She bit her lip. "She told me she was in love with me, too." And it still sounded unbelievable to her ears.

"Holy shit! Are you serious!" She was grinning now. All thoughts of being woken up at fucking 6 am forgotten.

"Yes!"

It all made sense, though. Even if it kind of pissed her off that she couldn't see it sooner. "So? Did you kiss her? Woah! Did you sleep together?"

Dianna blushed. "Calm down, Nay! No, we haven't done any of it, but I'm calling because I need your advice on taking her on a great date."

"Oh."

The line went silent.

"Nay?"

"Nope."

"No what?"

"I'm not giving you anything. All I can tell you is that you already have your girl, don't try too hard andjust think about what you would like…. you don't need any advices, Di. Your creativity has always been amazing."

It was true. Naya was sure that Dianna could pull off a great date even if she only had a few cents in her pocket.

The blonde smiled shyly at that. "You're right. Thanks."

"No biggie… now that you woke me up tell me, is Cancun as great as people describe it?"

Naya's phone call took longer than Dianna had planned.

And by longer she meant 10 valuable minutes in which she could have called Christopher to tell him the good news. But after a glance back to the room she noticed the brunette stirring in bed; and in no way, shape or form would Dianna rather make a call than relish precious time lying next to her favorite girl. So she made a mental note to call the boy later and walked back into the room quiet enough not to alert the brunette.

As soon as she felt the bed dip, Lea opened her eyes and was met with a golden pair of smiling orbs staring back at her.

"Hey." She whispered.

"Good morning."

She stretched her arms and let a content sigh before saying, "Come here."

And that's what she did.

She wrapped her arm around Lea's waist and nested her head in the crook of the brunette's neck. They were silent for a few minutes, simply enjoying each other's company.

"Can I ask you something?" Dianna muttered.

"Ask away."

"About what you said last night… was it for real?" Sure, the blonde was squealing on the phone less than five minutes ago, but being held in her arms this way made the situation more real. She just needed to make sure that both of them were in this… or that she hadn't been dreaming.

That'd be a shame because she hated to lie. And her heart probably wouldn't stand it.

Lea tightened her hold around Dianna and kissed the top of her head. "Do you think I would be capable of lying to you? About anything?"

Dianna sighed contently. "You're right." She felt like saying 'I love you' but she would rather wait until tomorrow when she asked her to be her girlfriend.

"Can I ask you something now?"

"Ask away." She said imitating the brunette's tone.

Lea laughed and swatted the arm she had been caressing with the tip of her fingers. "Dumb." Afterwards, she grew serious and began saying, "How long have you-"

"Been in love with you?" It was a question she herself would've asked, after all. She felt Lea nod so she continued; there was no need to hide anything anymore, so she might as well just tell the truth. "Honestly, for almost as long as I've known you." Her voice kept going lower until the last word was nothing but a whisper.

The brunette hummed in reply as she smiled and locked her own fingers to keep a firm hold around Dianna.

"Me too." She finally whispered.

And the blonde's heart soared.

Silence came over them again as Dianna started to map out the date in her head. Ideas kept coming over, but she needed something that wasn't too complicated and that she could actually accomplish in a day and a half. She sprinted as fast as she could out of the brunette's hold and looked down at her with a beam. "Can I take you out on a date?"

Lea bit her lip in amusement. She wanted nothing more than that but she still had to ask, "Right now?" She wouldn't be opposed even if it was.

Dianna frowned. "No… I was thinking that tomorrow would be better. I want it to be good so it'll take me awhile because I still haven't really planned it… or if you want it to be today maybe I can pull off something, just -"

"Di." Her tone sounded firm but Dianna could hear the amusement leaking through her voice. She still closed her mouth, though. "You're rambling."

"I know, I'm just nervous." Dianna whined as she covered her blushing face with her hands.

Lea took both hands into her own and intertwined their fingers as much as she could without changing her position from the bed. "I can see that," She chuckled. God, Dianna's frown was extremely adorable. "But don't be. And yes, Sunday sounds good for me." She ended up mirroring a bright smile.

"Okay then. Now I have to take a walk around the hotel to get some ideas. I recommend you chill out by the beach and relax." The whole excitement about the date made her feel bolder, so she leaned down and placed a chaste kiss on Lea's cheek. "It won't take long." With that she stood up and headed to her suitcase to get changed.

Lea laughed. "Just please comb your hair! I've told you, you look like a lion in the morning!" She yelled at the blonde's back.

Once Dianna left, Lea smiled and touched her cheek. The lingering feeling of those soft lips against it was still there. She let out a content sigh and got out of bed.

Sunday couldn't come fast enough.

Dianna had been wandering around the hotel for at least half an hour and she had already got one of the guys in charge to help her with the date. His name was Luis and he was as short as Lea. They sat in the lobby and it was only when he started suggesting some ideas that she actually came up with one of her own, then she remembered that she still had to call Christopher, so once every detail was cleared and she made Luis promise that everything would be ready by tomorrow, she excused herself and called her best adviser.

"This better be good."

She chuckled. "Why is everyone so moody today?"

"I'm sorry, Dianna, but I just caught a re-run of Housewives so if this isn't good I'm afraid I will have to call you later."

"It is good, I promise." She had never understood Chris and Lea's fixation with those kinds of series. She still remembers the day she walked into the brunette's trailer only to be shut up by a hypnotic tiny girl. After that, though, she learned not to interrupt neither of them. Yet again, this really was a huge exception.

"Baby, I'm missing valuable seconds here…"

"I told Lea I was in love with her."

"You what?" Real Housewives of Beverly Hills be damned.

"She knows, and guess what?"

Psht. He didn't have to guess. He already knew the ending of this, still, he feigned ignorance. "What?" They just didn't have to know that he knew… yet.

"She loves me too, Chris. She's in love with me."

If the boy had to describe Dianna's tone of voice with one word it would be happiness. Pure and great happiness; and for that, he was glad. Because at the end of it all, they didn't need his help. They worked at their pace and listened to what their hearts dictated them. But most of all, he was proud of Dianna. She had the brightest heart he had ever seen; she was kind and lovable. She deserved the best.

And the best for her would always be Lea.

Because they were made for each other.

And because he was never wrong about the matters of love.

He smiled and wished, not for the first time, that he could be there to hug the blonde. "I'm glad, Di. I knew you would be together at the end." He wiped a sneaky tear out of his cheek and said, "I'm sure you're taking her out on a date…" Because he also knew that Dianna was a sucker for romance.

"Yeah." She replied dreamily and moved on to tell him all about the details.

After she hung up she headed back to their room and found Lea lying in a lounge chair with a book in hand. The brunette was startled when she felt warm breath against her ear but relaxed as soon as she heard a familiar husky voice whisper, "We have a date. Tomorrow. Six pm."

They woke up the same way in Sunday morning.

Most of the day was spent lying by the hotel's pool. Afterwards, Lea decided to hit the gym while Dianna worked on the last details of the date. It wasn't much, really, but she wanted it to be special because she hoped that, by tonight, Lea would get to be called her girlfriend.

By 5:45, Dianna managed to be ready and told Lea that she needed to get something done and that she would be back shortly. She didn't hear the brunette's reply before she was already out of the room.

There was nothing to be done, but Luis had promised to find some wild lilies and so she wanted to see if he had got them. Fortunately, he did. She thanked him and he wished her good luck, assuring her that dinner would be set by the time they were there.

With confidence, she walked back to the room and decided to knock instead of using her key. After a few seconds the door swung open to reveal a surprised brunette in a white sunny dress that barely reached her knees. Lea was about to ask if Dianna had forgotten her key, but as soon as her eyes landed on the flowers her mouth dropped open and the words died in her throat. It was perfect, and the date hadn't even started. Her smile brightened the whole room as she retrieved the bouquet and kissed the blonde on the cheek.

"Thank you, Di. They're beautiful" She said.

Dianna bit her lip, swallowing a cheesy line and fighting the urge to kiss the brunette senseless. "You're welcome." She smiled back.

Lea walked back to the suite and placed the flowers on her nightstand. She turned around and after making sure that she had a key, she walked back to Dianna and hugged her. It wasn't necessary, really, but she had been wanting to do it for a while. While she snaked her arms around the blonde's shoulders, she felt another pair wrap her waist.

They fit perfectly.

And if it wasn't because they still needed to go to the date, she would be content staying like this.

So she stepped back and slid her hand into the blonde's, locking their fingers together. "Let's go."

She had no idea of what she had been expecting, but as they got closer to their destination, she definitely started feeling in awe of what the blonde had set up. Somehow, Dianna had managed to lit candles and place some cushions around a spread blanket. It was a simple picnic; but the fact that the girl next to her took her time doing it meant more to her than any other thing in the world.

She squeezed the hand in her own, "I love it." She saw that there were several small plates already set and turned to the blonde. "Did you actually set the food when you were gone?"

"No," She guided Lea to one of the cushions and then she sat on the other. "Luis did. I met him yesterday; he's in charge of room service and agreed to help me when I asked him. He's very nice… and he's as short as you." She teased.

Lea laughed. "Shut up. Not everyone is lucky to have your height." She started eyeing the food and opted for some broccoli canapés. She moaned at the taste and turned to the blonde "These are really good… here, taste it." As Dianna got closer she extended her hand and fed her. It was an intimate action, but this was a date, and they had already confessed their feelings for each other.

The blonde licked her lips. It was getting harder having to restrain herself from kissing the brunette, but she wanted this to be the right way; and you know what they say about things being worth it once you've waited long enough.

Right now, though, she needed a distraction.

"I called Nay and Chris, today." She said.

"Really? Are they good? I miss them."

"Yeah, they're good. I actually called them because I wanted to tell them that I had finally found the courage to tell you." And then she realized what she'd said. "I hope you don't mind." She added. Maybe Lea wanted this to keep it as a secret for a while.

Lea chuckled. "Of course I don't mind. I'm just kind of surprised they knew―wait… Chris? As in Chris Colfer?"

"Oh… Yes, that Chris. Why?"

"OH MY GOD."

"What?" Dianna said alerted.

"Chris knewyou had feelings for me?" She rushed.

"You're confusing me." And she was getting nervous.

"He knew I had feelings for you!..." She pointed to herself for dramatics, "Oh my God, as soon as we get back I'm gonna kill him." How on earth would he hide something like that from her?

Dianna laughed. She had no idea that the brunette had also confided in him, but, to be honest, if she had been in the same position, she wouldn't have done anything either. It wasn't his place to make the decision, and that is exactly what she said to Lea. She was grateful that her friend kept it as a secret from each other, even if they might've been together way before. Things happened for a reason, and she totally understood where he had been coming from.

"Just don't strangle him. You know he's delicate." Both girls laughed at that.

Lea calmed as they continued to eat in silence for a few moments before she began to say, "I won't… Honestly, I'm just glad you had the courage to tell me. I was kind of a coward and didn't want to be rejected by you." She shook her thoughts away. "It sounds stupid now, really."

"It doesn't," Dianna soothed. "You have no idea of how afraid I was of rejection. But it would've killed me to keep inside any longer, and as you can see, even if I didn't know about your feelings then, I would've wanted you to know."

Lea smiled at her. She wondered where they would be right now if Dianna hadn't had the courage to open up. "I love your bravery." She stated.

And I love you, Dianna thought. "Come here," she said, beckoning the brunette closer. She grabbed one of her hands and guided her until she was safely sitting between her legs; Lea's back against her chest. At the feeling, she looped her arms around a tiny waist as the brunette's head rested on her shoulder. It seemed to be as if they could fit in any position they chose.

They watched in silence as the last rays of light hid behind an infinite sea; with Dianna nuzzling the brunette's neck and kissing her shoulder every time she could, and Lea caressing the blonde's arms.

It was perfect.

But, to Dianna, the date hadn't finished yet. The most important part of her plan still needed to be executed, so she relished the last couple of minutes holding her date before whispering in her ear, "I need to show you something." It ran chills down the brunette's spine and she did everything she could not to shiver. Instead, she slowly stood up and shook the little sand she had on her dress.

Lea was curious by nature, and so she asked Dianna where she was taking them. The blonde simply shrugged and told her not to worry; that she would have to close her eyes in a bit, anyway. It did nothing to help, but she felt excited nonetheless.

As Dianna promised, she covered the brunette's eyes with a blue scarf and took both her hands to walk her up the stairs that connected the beach to the parking lot. She made a stop at the top, turning until she was behind the tiny brunette. All they could hear for a moment were the waves coming back and forth.

"Are you ready?" She finally asked.

"You really need to stop whispering in my ear if you don't want me to do something about it." She joked. Having the blonde breathe so close to her was, in fact, amazing.

Dianna let out a quiet laugh. "You didn't answer my question, though."

It wasn't her fault. Being so close to such a magnificent woman like Dianna tended to make her feel dizzy with adoration. She still replied, "Yes."

At the answer, the blonde hugged her from behind. "I love you." She breathed. Then she made a sign towards Luis, who was standing at the roof of the hotel, to turn on the lights so that what was on the sand could be seen in the night. She removed the scarf out of Lea's sight and slid her hands back on the brunette's hips.

Lea gasped at what she saw. She covered her mouth with her hand as her eyes became teary.

There, written in the sand, was the phrase 'Will you be my girlfriend?'

She would have never imagined a surprise like this. Here she stood; with the girl she was head over heels in love with, asking her in the most romantic way she could think of to be her girlfriend. It made her fall deeper and want to go out there to reply with a 'Yes' bigger than the sea.

She turned around with a huge smile on her face and threw herself at the blonde. "I love you, too, Dianna." She didn't want to wait anymore, so when she pulled back enough to stare at confident hazel eyes, she found the reassurance she needed and stood on her toes, with her arms still resting on her shoulders.

The feeling of having her lips pressed against Dianna's wasn't something she had ever experienced. Even if the first touch was gentle, the fireworks she saw and felt were the exact contrary. She smiled against the blonde's lips as a pair of strong arms wrapped securely around her waist.

Dianna smiled in return as she kissed her firmer. It was everything she could have asked for and more. She then caught the brunette's lower lip between her own and sucked lightly before letting it go; long enough for them to take a breath before Lea could reach out and kiss her again. Firmer this time, the brunette let her own weight be supported by Dianna. Their lips kept moving slowly and soon her knees became weak. When oxygen eventually grew into a necessity she pulled back and rested her forehead against the blonde's.

Water drops started to fall as they got their breathing back to normal. After a few more seconds Dianna kissed her forehead and let her lips linger before she muttered, "You didn't say yes―"

"Yes!" Lea exclaimed as she hugged her tighter and nuzzled her neck. "Yes." She whispered one more time. Forget everything. Being in Dianna's warms was the only thing she would ever ask for.

As soon as the rain started to fall heavier, Dianna looked back at the ceiling; Luis was nowhere in sight, so she made a mental note to thank him before leaving. She slowly pulled back and cupped the brunette's face, pecking her lips. "We need to get going." Another peck.

With every kiss she got, Lea fell deeper into a daze; but having the rain hit her like small pieces of ice made her want to reconsider any thought of staying outside. So she nodded and made sure to steal another kiss before she took off running. A grinning blonde in tow.

They ran back by the beach. The waves were louder and the rain didn't seem to cease any time soon. There was no need anymore, really. The girls were damp from head to toe and all they were doing by now was laugh like kids and run through the waves from time to time. Life felt simple and they had no hurry to get anywhere; as long as their hands stayed connected, nothing would break the fort they had built around them.

Before they reached their suite Dianna made the brunette stop abruptly. Between laughs she had remembered a conversation she had shared with her as her best friend.

A kiss under the rain.

It was perfect.

And so she pulled her by the arm and crashed their lips together. It was more passionate than the first one, as the blonde pushed Lea against her and snaked her arms around her waist. The brunette responded instantly, cupping her cheeks and tilting her head to have a better angle. Her lips were warm and Dianna could feel the way it spread through her body. She hugged her tighter as she tentatively caressed the brunette's lower lip with her tongue. The first time their tongues met was as wonderful as they could have imagined. Lea moaned at the taste and softness as their tongues danced together; neither of them fighting for dominance, but rather memorizing every corner.

The brunette pulled back first before leaning in and biting Dianna's lip. She restarted the kiss, just as passionate. She could vaguely feel the rain hitting her head and shoulders; the air was starting to hit hard, but there was no way she would rather pull back. Unless she was dying out of lack of air, that is.

But at least if she died; she would die kissing her.

And both of them would die feeling like the happiest women on earth.

Thoughts? was the ending too vague?... I'm leaving now!
