I'm sorry I haven't updated in a while, my mouse's battery died, and I hate using the touch pad…So I wasn't able to work on the story, also the gremlins in my computer were messing with it, so I couldn't do much because it would always turn itself off…. Luckily, we were able to get new batteries and I defeated the gremlins, so I can now get back to work! :D

Simple confessions

Things had seemingly gone back to normal. The vivosaurs had returned(apparently there was some kind of Vivosaur Party on the beach and no one bothered to look there.), the BB Bandits were nowhere in sight, and things had calmed down. But Dina knew better.

"Dina, what are you doing up so late?" Rupert walked out into the living room and saw Dina on the couch with Teffla curled up in her lap. She was in a white nightgown, and her hair was down. Rupert rarely saw Dina with her hair down, but when he did, it was usually late at night.

"I couldn't sleep…" She answered. "I've had a bad feeling ever since that nightmare…" Rupert sighed. Dina had a small habit of seeing the future in her dreams. Although, she couldn't remember what she dreamed if it was unimportant. Other times, prophecies will appear in her dreams, but the meaning isn't clear, since it's often hidden. Dina had always been a bit superstitious…OK, a little is an understatement, but she knew how to hide it. Rupert didn't even find out she was superstitious until she started to freak out on a Friday, that just happened to be the infamous 'Friday the thirteenth'. Dina was often acting paranoid. Rupert stared to worry.

"Is Dina alright?" He asked Todd. "She seems a bit…Paranoid…" Todd looked at him.

"Yeah, she's starting to get me paranoid…" Pauleen added.

"You don't- Oh that's right, you two have never spent a Friday the Thirteen with us." Todd started to explain. "Dina's a bit superstitious. If you tell her something's bad luck, she's likely to believe it. Maybe. There's a few things she doesn't believe." Pauleen snickered a bit. Dina glared at her.

Rupert smiled a bit at the memory, but frowned again. Dina had been plagued by nightmares, which she believed to be a bad omen. Rupert sighed.

"Dina," he said walking over to her. "Things will get better, I promise. I know that we had a few problems when we first came here, but I'm sure that we'll be fine. If you want, we can head back to the islands." Dina shook her head.

"No. I don't want to ruin it for Todd and Pauleen…" She whispered. Rupert sat down beside her, and held her hand.

"Dina, I know you're scared, but I promise if anyone tries to hurt you, tell me and kick their sorry ass to the moon." Dina, hugged him.

"Thanks." She whispered. Rupert returned the embrace.

The next morning, Todd and Pauleen woke up and were slightly surprised to see Rupert and Dina fast asleep on the couch.

"Should we wake them up?" Pauleen whispered.

"No, let's let them sleep." Todd replied. "They usually don't get moments like this. Let them enjoy it."

"Well, they've gotta wake up sometime." Joe whispered. Todd and Pauleen jumped a bit.

"When did you get here?" Todd whispered.

"A few seconds ago." Joe answered.

After a while Dina and Rupert had woken up, and Dina quickly cared for the vivosaurs. After a while, They decided to go into town.

"I told you they were going to come back, but no one ever listens to me!" A girl snapped. The boy she was yelling at was trying to calm her.

"Come on Rosy, I merely said that they most likely would take a long time to come back, I never said they wouldn't…" The boy said, clearly regretting that he ever said anything. Raptin was with them, along with another Dinaurian, although, this Dinaurian was female.

"Guys, I know things have gotten a little strange lately, but until we catch that wild V-Raptor, we obviously can't really worry about old enemies." Raptin started. "I'm not sure if you've noticed, but you humans tend to make the same mistakes over and over again…" Rupert rolled his eyes.

"You're definitely one to talk!" He snapped. Raptin spun around and smiled at them.

"Hello Dina!" He said cheerfully. "Hi Rupert…" Rupert ignored him.

"Who are they?" He asked, looking towards Raptin's friends.

"That's Rosy, Kaito, and Duna." Raptin motioned to his friends. Kaito grinned, Duna smiled, and Rosy huffed.

"Don't mind Rosy, she's grumpy because the BB Bandits are back." Kaito mumbled. Dina grew pale at the mention of the BB Bandits. "What's wrong?"

"Dina had a bad encounter with one of them." Rupert answered. "They injured her pretty badly." Kaito sighed.

"I was hoping they wouldn't…They kidnapped Rosy once, and I had to save her." He explained. "They always go after girls…"

"Perverts…" The three girls muttered. They looked at each other and laughed. The boys sighed and smiled, happy that the girls were actually enjoying themselves.

"So, Dina reject you yet?" Raptin asked. Rupert glared at him.

"Don't start that up again!" He snapped. Mapo chuckled, and Teffla chirped. "Both of you shut up!"

"Come on master," Mapo thought to Rupert. "Stop denying it! It's completely obvious. Besides…" The little vivosaur looked at Dina. "I know she feels the same way. Teffla told me."

"Well what Should I do?" Rupert thought back. "I don't know how to tell her…" Mapo thought for a moment.

"Kiss her!" He answered. Rupert glared at his vivosaur. "What? You asked me to help you!"

"Do you honestly think that will help?" Rupert asked. "That could ruin our friendship!"

"Well you seem to have no other options and you can't seem to get the courage to express it in words." Mapo thought to him, exasperated.

"Isn't there anything else you can think of?" Rupert pleaded. Mapo thought.

"…I got nothing." Rupert sighed.

A few hours later, Rupert and Dina were walking back after talking with Raptin and his friends for a bit. He looked around and stopped after he made sure no one else was around.

"Dina…" He started. "There's something you need to know." Dina looked at him confused and walked over to him.

"What's wro-" She was cut off when Rupert suddenly kissed her. She stood there for a moment, unsure of what just happened. Rupert pulled away when he realized she wasn't responding. Dina secretly hoped that he wouldn't pull away, though her shock prevented her from doing anything.

"I…I love you…" Rupert confessed. Dina blushed and smiled softly.

"I love you too." She whispered. Rupert smiled. "but…We…We can't…" Rupert felt his heart break.

"W-why?" He asked, trying to hold back his disappointment. Dina looked at him with tears in her eyes.

"The others…They…They won't let us live this down…They might-" she started. Rupert laughed.

"I say let them." He whispered. "I don't care what they do, I don't care if they try to kill us, I'll always love you. Besides, we could be a modern day Romeo and Juliet. We can keep it a secret."

"But Romeo and Juliet died…" Dina pointed out. Rupert rolled his eyes.

"Not the point." He replied. "That won't happen to us."

"Not unless they get poison." Dina said firmly.

"Which they won't…" Rupert muttered, beginning to get frustrated.

"They might find some other way." Dina insisted.

"Dina." Rupert growled, quite menacingly. Dina whimpered and stepped back, terrified. Ever since she was beaten by the BB Bandit, She would always become scared when Rupert yelled or got angry at her. Rupert felt his heart ache slightly.

"I…I'm sorry…" Dina whispered, on the verge of tears. Rupert walked over to her and hugged her gently.

"Dina, you know I wouldn't hurt you…" He whispered, kissing her forehead. Dina blushed and hugged him tightly.

A few hours passed by, and Todd and Pauleen were in bed, and Joe had gone back to the islands because one of the staff called him about some difficulties. Dina and Rupert were still awake. Almost. Dina had her head on Rupert's shoulder, and Rupert had wrapped his arm around her. The two were in Dina's room.

"Rupert…" Dina whispered. Rupert looked at her. "Could you sleep with me tonight? There's supposed to be a storm…" She trailed off. Rupert hugged her.

"Don't worry, I'll stay." He whispered, kissing her cheek. Dina fell asleep after a while, but Rupert stayed awake as long as he could, but eventually fell asleep. Turns out Dina had lied about the storm, and she just wanted to spend some time with her new boyfriend.

Well it's about time right? :D and just to piss ya'll off I'll make them break up next chapter. JUST KIDDING! XD Sorry, couldn't resist. So anyway, next chapter will be a filler chapter. You'll be able to identify them by their extreme hilarity, some OOCness, and will not really have much to do with the story. There may be more then just one as well in each 'chapter', which is another good way to identify them. Have a nice day everyone!
