Nate's POV
She's wearing a black dress that kinda flows out at the bottom and fits her perfectly. She's wearing all black vans with gold on them. She has on a layered flower necklace and the girls are right... She looks hot. I just need her to give me her time, I need her to know how much I care about her. She's the first and only girl I've ever really really cared about. She makes me a better person. I find myself smiling whenever she's around. I want to know her like no one else does. I want to love her like no one else does. I walked to the end of the stairs to meet her. Not even gonna lie, I'm nervous as fuck. I lightly grabbed her hand and walked to the front door with her while everyone else cooed and whistled.
I could tell she was nervous too by the way she shivered when I first touched her hand. The thing I really like about her is that she's easy to talk to but we are both nervous since all this stuff happened. I opened the passenger door for her then walked to my door. The drive was pretty quiet so I turned on some music. She spoke up..
"I'm sorry."
"For what? I should be apologizing."
"I got jealous and I overreacted. We aren't dating. We aren't together and your life is your business. I'm sorry that I acted the way I did."
That came off so cold but I don't even think she realizes it.
"Damn." I said.
"I'm sorry. That sounded rude. I didn't mean it like that... I just meant-"
"Stop apologizing, I know what you meant." I cut her off. "But I kissed you and I'm talking you on a date. There's no going back."
"Nate. I really like you. I mean we both said I love you. And I meant that, but I don't think you're capable of being in a long term relationship. I don't think you could stay commited... Especially to me." She said looking at her feet. "I don't want to ruin anything between us."
Especially to me?.... What does that even mean.
"Juliet. Listen to me please just hear me out..... I love you with all of my heart and I want to be committed to you." I responded meaning every word of it. "Every time I see a guy flirt with you, which is quite often might I add, I get extremely jealous because I really care about you."
It got quiet.
"Aren't you going to say anything?" I asked.
"What do you want me to say Nate?"
"Something.... Anything..." I said feeling hurt.
"Nate I'm hopelessly in love with you and we both know it but I can't be with you because I'm scared." She said looking more embarrassed than upset this time.
We pulled up to the Tuppan Grill right then.
We both got out of the car. I walked to her side and held her hand walking in the door.
"Me too." I whispered.

Juliet's POV
"Me too." Nate whispered grabbing my hand.
We ate dinner after they cooked in front of us. It was really dark outside being 7:30. We finally pulled up to the apartment a few minutes later after some light hearted conversation. We walked up to the door and before entering he stopped me and held both of my hands.
"Juliet... Will you please be my girlfriend?" He said with sincerity in his eyes.
"Yes." I said hoping that I didn't make a mistake.
He looked me in the eyes and pulled me in close kissing me. I kissed back enjoying every second of it. He smiled into the kiss and so did I. Even after the other times we've kissed it felt brand new. I actually feel loved. We walked through the door and the boys were playing FIFA with three gorgeous girls sitting by their sides. Johnson had Gia on his lap, of course, while Sammy and Gilinsky had two other girls by them. At first I was confused. Nate looked at me and furrowed his eyebrows and I did the same. Then we both ended up laughing. He kissed my forehead lightly and then we saw everyone looking at us. That's when I saw Heavenly Gilinsky look up at me.
We've known each other basically forever. She's Gilinsky's sister, which shocked me since she was sitting close to Sammy and he had his arm around her. Next to Gilinsky was someone I hadn't met or seen before. Everyone got up and walked towards us. Heavenly hugged me and Gia and Kate did the same winking at me and Nate.
"Juliet, this is Adna." Gilinsky said.
She's beautiful....
