Derrick smiled gently, "Sena, all I want is you to be happy."

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"I... I don't know what I want," Sena admitted. "I just want to be with you."

[Pebblestripe]

Derrick kissed her lightly, "You've got me." he assured her.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"Then... then let's go all the way," Sena said. She held her breath after saying those words, waiting for his reaction.

[Pebblestripe]

Derrick stared at her for a long moment, "Are you sure you want to? I'm not trying to pressure you at all." he said gently.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"I know," Sena said firmly. "I do. I want to."

[Pebblestripe]

"You're adorable." he chuckled kissing her neck softly, his lips brushing her skin as he moved lower.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Sena's face burned, but she gently grabbed the hem of his shirt and lifted it over his head. It wasn't like she'd never seen him without a shirt on before, but her breath still caught in her throat.

[Pebblestripe]

Derrick reached around her and pulled the zipper of her dress down, all the while kissing her neck.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Sena closed her eyes as she felt the smooth material of the dress slide off her skin.

[Pebblestripe]

(And done haha)

Derrick held Sena in his arms her face tucked into his shoulder and a smile spread across his face, his eyes were half closed and he was close to dozing off.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Sena's eyes were closed. She was enjoying the warmth of his skin against hers, the feel of their bodies pressed together, nothing between them. If she could just stay here forever... in his arms, with not a care in the world.

[Pebblestripe]

Derrick kissed her gently on her cheek and then let his head drop onto the pillow, he let out a content sigh. He hadn't felt this relaxed and happy in awhile.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"Derrick?" Sena said softly. She was happy, don't get me wrong, happier than she'd been in a long time. She couldn't help but think about what them being together meant. It meant the paparazzi having a field day.

[Pebblestripe]

"Yeah?" he responded playing with her fingers and staring absentmindedly at the curtains covering the moonlight.

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"What about the tabloids?" Sena asked. "I don't want them hearing about every detail of our love life. I don't want them to tear us apart."

[Pebblestripe]

"They don't need to know anything. Only that we're together." he assured her gently, "And I promise that they won't tear us apart."

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

Sena wasn't so sure. If there was one thing she believe, though, it was that they had something special. Something a million other actors and celebrities had never had. Nothing could come between them, right?

[Pebblestripe]

"We don't have to do this though." he said letting go of her hands, "If you don't feel good about us or you don't think it will work then there is no hard feelings." he reassured her always trying to be the good guy. "I just want you to be happy Sena, that's what matters to me. I'm sorry it took so long to realize that you are the girl I want and need and I know it may be too late.." he sighed, "But I do love you and any decision you make will not affect our friendship."

[ᴄʀʏsᴛᴀʟғʀᴏsᴛ]

"Oh, Derrick," Sena whispered. "I've loved you since like fifth grade. And I do want to be with you. I'm just afraid of what will happen." She paused and looked down, closing her eyes for a moment. "Do you think this can really work?" Friendships that became something more, in her opinion, were doomed to failure, even if it had always been more than friendship to her.
