Disclaimer!: I DON'T OWN! GET THAT THROUGH YOU HEADS!


NARRATER POV!

Chloe was sprawled out on Derek sweatshirt. She was almost asleep and was waiting for Derek to change back. Derek on the other hand was jogging back and forth, thinking that the more tired he gets the quicker the change will come. So far, it wasn't working out so well.

Nate had left, even though he had many more questions to ask them. He was so confused about everything, even existence itself.

Derek had finally given up, and was tired. He didn't feel the change coming anytime soon, plus it was a school night. Chloe needed to sleep, so he would make sure she did so she was okay in the morning. He hoped that his mom or Kit weren't sitting waiting for them to get back thinking pervertedly of things that they may be doing.

Derek trotted to where Chloe was trying not sleep and laid down next to her. She turned to her side and they fell asleep with there backs touching.

************~~~~~***~~~~**~**~*~**~**~****~*~*~**~*~*~* Weeeeeeeeeeeeee!***

Derek woke up to the smell of strawberries. He realized that he was being smother by blond hair, he didn't want to move. His muscles were stiff and sore but for some reason he was very comfy. Where was he? Oh, yeah the change. But, when did he change back into his sweat pants? He saw that he and Chloe were still sleeping on his sweatshirt in the middle of the forest. He also noticed that Chloe's head rested on his bare chest and his head was so his face was in her hair. His arms were wrapped around her waist, holding her protectively and their legs were in a tangled mess.

His eyes went wide and he blushed, happy that Chloe wasn't awake to to see it.

What time was it? He bet they missed school, it was very bright outside. What did everyone do when they woke up and found them missing? Did they think they got kidnapped?

Sadly, Derek sat up slowly and untangled their legs. He shook Chloe awake, wanting to make sure nobody was worrying. She groaned and rubbed her eyes. She turned to Derek and muttered groggily.

"What time is it?"

"I have no idea, but I'm pretty sure school's started already." Derek replied, now trying to pull her up. Her eyes shut again and he was forced to pick her up bridal style. "Chloe." He said sing-song. "You need to get up. It's going to look like I'm taking a dead body to the car and someone is bound to call the police."

"Then give me a piggyback." She squirmed.

He rolled his eyes but grunted an 'ok'. He set her down and she climbed onto his back. "I need to get my sweatshirt."

Chloe sighed. "Lean down, i'll get it."

Derek did what he was told and they were soon on their exciting trip to the car, full of trees, rocks and dirt. Oh my!

He set her in the passenger side and she felt in her jacket pocket and frowned. Then she tried her other and she scowled. She put both hands in her p.j. bottom pockets and her scowl depend. "Crap." She sighed.

"What?" Derek asked. Then he remembered. "Where's the keys, Chloe?" He asked nicely through clenched teeth, even though his mind was screaming a line of curses.

"Uhh... I don't know..." She said slowly considering her words. "I-I-I think they f-fell out when I was s-sleeping? Ha, ha..."

Derek's eye twitted. Thats just great. The keys are out in the middle of the woods. "Come on. We need to go get them." He grumbled.

Chloe slid out of the car. "Yeah, yeah."

They walked back into the woods. Derek sniffed out the trail they just took, but for some reason it was gone. How was is gone? He punched the nearest tree and growled. He held his hand close to his body, his hand in a fist up by his chest and kept walking.

"Erm, Derek?" Chloe pointed to the tree.

Derek whipped around. "What?" He snapped.

"You broke the tree." She stated simply.

"I what?" He walked to inspect the damage, and believe it or not, there was an indent of his fist of where he punched it. "Whatever." He turned back. They walked around aimlessly for a few minutes, suddenly completely lost.

"Are we lost?" Chloe asked Derek who was walking so fast she had to run to catch up to him.

"No."

"We are! You're lying!" She accused.

"No. We are not lost." He said slowly and stopped, crossing his arms over his chest.

"Stop it!" Chloe stomped.

He rolled his eyes and turned around. "Stop what?"

"Lying!" She yelled and took a step closer.

Derek's eye twitched, yes twitched. "I'm not."

"Yes! You're lying to my face!" She poked his chest, trying to make him stumble back and be intimidating. Even though her head went up to his chest and she had to lift her arm pretty high to get it up there.

"Oh, yeah?" He took a step closer and glared, leaning down. Definitely intimidating. "How can you tell?"

"I know you. And you, sir, are lying! We are lost! Just admit it already!" She held up a fist.

Derek couldn't find anything to say. She saw right threw him! Damn her! Damn her and her stupid being able to see through him and his lying!

"See," Her lips turned up. "You can't deny you were."

"No." He growled and leaned closer.

"Yes!" She leaned in.

"No." Closer.

"Yes!" Closer.

"No." Closer.

Yes." Closer.

"No." Closer.

"Yes." How much closer can they get?

"No." Apparently closer.

This went on for about a minute. Each leaning closer each time until they were just centimeters apart.

Derek looked at her mouth and then back at her bright blue eyes. "No." He whispered.

"Yes." She whispered back.

He closed the distance and their lips locked together. Her lips were soft and warm, they molded against his. He never wanted this moment to end and go back to the stressing they've been doing lately.

But of course, you have to pull apart for air after awhile.

They stared at each others eyes for a moment until Derek finally cleared his throat. They both looked away, blushing like crazy.

"So, um, they keys... I think they're around here..." Derek stammered.

"L-let's get g-g-going the-en." Chloe stuttered.

Silently they walked toward where they thought the clearing was, and ended up getting more lost.

"We're lost." Derek sighed.

"I knew it!" Chloe beamed, happy that she won. "So... what are we gonna do now?"

"Well... we could..." Derek started but didn't finish. Instead he just blushed and looked away.

"We could...?" Chloe pressed on.

"Never mind." He said quickly.

"No, tell me." She stopped walking.

Derek rubbed the bridge of his nose, annoying they were having another fight and it had only been about 5 minutes. "No," He argued. "It was stupid."

They started walking again in silence and Derek started getting mad, where were they heading? And why couldn't he smell the stupid trail?

"I won't say its stupid." Chloe said quietly.

Derek sighed, why did she keep bringing this up? "Yes, you will."

"Just tell me!"

"Why do you want to know?"

"Because I do!"

"Fine, I was going to say that we could kiss again!" Derek blushed. "I mean- see, I told you it was stupid. Never-!" He was cut off by Chloe crashing her lips against his. He was caught of guard and before he could react the ground beneath them fell.
