AN: This one-shot is going to take place in TDA and the couple is DJxEva, I'm not sure if someone has written a one-shot for this couple yet but I have a little mention of them in chapter 9.

I know Eva wasn't in TDA but, let's just pretend she is for this story. Enjoy!

It was late afternoon at the TDA studio lot and the teens were relaxing and enjoying the day off that Chris had gave them. They weren't going to waste it that's for sure.

Everyone was chatting with one another and having fun in the sprinklers or just sipping a nice cold drink except for one girl.

Eva was working out as usual with her dumbbells giving someone a scowl here and there. She scares everyone so what's the use of making friends. That's how she always saw it.

Getting fed up with seeing everyone in a more than happy mood and talking about everything and anything, Eva started walking to the woods that were on the edge of the lot all while still pumping her dumbbells.

While she was making her way to the woods, a certain guy was watching her smiling lightly in her direction as he decided to see where she was heading to.

As Eva made her way through the woods getting deeper and deeper into them she suddenly heard a chirp it was no ordinary chirp it was a chirp filled with pain.

Eva followed the painful chirp as she made her way through bushes and in and out of trees that filled the woods.

Following close behind, DJ the guy who had his eye on Eva for awhile sped up trying to match the muscle girl's fast pace.

Eva finally reached the area where the chirps were coming from and dropped her dumbbells as she made her way over to a tree.

DJ stayed behind a nearby tree and watched as the scary girl herself got down on her knees and lightly picked up a fallen baby bird from the ground that apparently fell from its nest.

DJ couldn't believe what he just saw; Eva, the number one meanest, most aggressive girl on the show actually helped an animal? How did she even hear it, the chirp was faint to start with even DJ being the animal lover of the group hardly heard it.

As he turned around to head back to the lot he suddenly stepped on a branch breaking it in two causing the sound of the break to echo throughout the woods.

Hoping Eva didn't hear that, DJ waited a few moments to see if she said anything. Just as he was about to make his next step someone blocked his path.

Looking down he saw the sports shoes that Eva wore with the knee high socks. He gulped as his eyes traveled up to the girl's face which at this moment had the meanest scowls on it.

"What are you doing here?" Eva asked harshly stepping toward DJ who took a step back.

"J-ju-just h-hi-hiking." He said as he started to be interested in the trees and the bushes around him making ohhh's and aww's at everything trying to convince the raging girl in front of him.

"Cut the shit DJ!" The raging girl said stomping her foot as she made her point across. The gentle giant jumped a bit at the outburst.

"Alright, I was curious what you were doing out here so I followed you." He said looking at the ground and waiting for his beating.

"Did anyone else follow you?" She asked as DJ brought his head up and shook his head.

"Everyone was occupied with whatever they were doing."

"Good, so it was just you then?"

"Yup. How'd you hear it though?"

"What?" The muscle girl asked clearly confused at his random question.

"How did you hear the baby bird's chirp, I hardly heard it." He asked taking a step towards the no calm girl.

"I have really good ears is all."

"Alright, then why did you help the bird?" He asked crossing his arms.

"I didn't help some stupid bird!" She yelled glaring up at DJ who took another frightened step back.

"Y-y-yes you did, I saw you." He said gaining some confidence up and taking two steps forward.

"Why'd you follow me in the first place?" Eva asked clearly avoiding the question DJ wanted answered.

"I was curious that's all now answer the question please."

"Fine, I love animal's okay." She said looking everywhere but at DJ.

"I knew it." He said snapping his fingers.

"How?" Eva asked amused at the gentle giant's actions.

"The way you handled the baby bird; you were gently with it and not aggressive like you are with other things and the smile you gave when you put it back in its nest."

"You saw that huh?"

"Yeah, it's nothing to be ashamed about Eva, loving and helping animals is a great thing to do." DJ said putting a hand on her shoulder.

Eva started to blush at the contact DJ made hoping he wouldn't notice she quickly looked away hoping the blush would go away.

Truth be told, Eva has had a crush on the gentle giant himself since the first season. She knew he would never like her, she was to aggressive, hard to handle, and what a lot of people called her; manly.

Yeah, she didn't like what other girls did; make-up, shopping, fashion, and so on but, after she knocked out the girl's teeth who said that to her she ran out into the woods which was her favorite place and cried for hours wondering why.

That day as she was crying she heard a painful yelp come from not far away from her and she went to see what it was. She came upon a baby deer stuck in a trap, its leg caught in a net.

Not knowing what came over her, she walked up to the deer who was trying to get free and started untangling the net from around it's leg, as she unraveled the last layer of net she watched as the deer got on all four again and walked over to her and nuzzled against her hand.

As she watched the deer prance away, Eva felt herself smile in the baby deer's direction. For the first time in awhile she felt whole again. Helping that baby deer made Eva happy something she hadn't felt in a long time.

From that day one she started helping animals every time she got. She even started volunteering at a local animal shelter, of course nobody knew that and she wanted it to stay that way.

Once she got to the island and saw DJ taking care of some animals and playing with them she thought she would have a chance with someone but, that dream was crushed when she lost her temper and he was standing near her.

As the show continued, in the back of her mind, she always hoped that he would like her and maybe this might be the chance, the second chance that she's always wanted.

"I know it's not DJ but, people will judge me again."

"Eva, everyone judges people to quickly, like me." He said putting his other hand on her shoulder.

"What do you mean DJ?" She asked as she felt more redness take over her face.

"I mean I judged you to quickly Eva, I always thought you were a mean and aggressive person but, I see that those are only cover up's."

"I still don't get it DJ."

"I know you're hiding your true self Eva, you weren't always this mean girl." He said as he inched his face towards hers.

"G-g-get back o-o-or I'll h-hi-hit you!" Eva said as she lifted a shaky fist in the air as the blush on her already red cheeks grew.

"I know you won't now." DJ said as he moved his face closer to hers as he saw the blush clearly.

"I w-wi-will!" She said as she raised her shaking fist more.

"No you won't and Eva, I like you too." DJ said as he pressed his lips gently to the shaking girls as she put down her fist as it wrapped around his shoulders as his found themselves wrapping themselves around her waist pulling her closer to deepen the soft kiss.

Eva broke the kiss as they both started to get some air back from the steamy kiss.

"How did you know that I like you?"

"Your eyes." He said as he stroked her cheek softly.

"You could tell that just by my eyes?"

"Yeah, the eyes are the center of all emotions."

"Interesting." She said giving DJ a small grin.

"So tell me, how long have you been helping animals?"

"Four years now."

"Wow, how'd you start?" He asked sliding an arm around her waist.

"Well, the truth is, I was crying in the woods one day and I heard a baby deer I found out it was stuck in a trap so, I got it out and from that day on I started helping every animal that needs it." Eva said setting her hand on top of his.

"Why were you crying?"

"Just a run in into them."

"Who's them?"

"The girls that went to my school."

"What happened?"

"Just telling me the usual."

"Which was?"

"I was to manly for anyone that I didn't belong."

"Why would they do that?"

"I'm not sure, I gave them enough broken noses and missing teeth but, apparently the stupid took over their brains and they kept at the comments."

DJ gave a short laugh as he grinned at Eva.

"Why did it get to you then?" He asked as he started to stroke her hair. She felt the blush climb back up her face.

"Because it's true."

DJ stopped stroking her hair and held her back at arms length with both of his hands on her shoulders as he gave her a small smile.

"Eva, it's not true, you know why they did that to you?"

"Why?"

"Because they were jealous."

"Why would they be?" She asked giving DJ a confused look.

"Because, you're different, you don't follow groups, you're your own person, that makes you unique which makes you more of a girl then they are." He said as his hands slid from her shoulders to her waist as he pulled her into a hug.

"So, you like me the way I am?" Eva asked sliding her arms around DJ's neck as she hugged back putting her face in the crock of his neck.

"I love the way you are Eva, and I wouldn't have it any other way."

"Thank you DJ."

"No, thank you Eva, I finally found you."

"And I found you too."

DJ pulled her in for another kiss this one more full of passion. As the two kissed, in the distance a little baby deer was looking at the pair with a twinkle in its eyes as it gazed at the two.

Two people trying to find that special someone found each other in one secret that made them come closer together learning that it's okay to be different.

You just have to have love.
