A/N: This scene in season 3, episode 7 always made me cry and smile at the same time. Betty seemed so upset and Daniel was there for her in such a lovely way. It was so sweet but then I was listening to Ed Sheeran's song 'Kiss Me' for the millionth time and I just thought how perfect it would be for this moment. The title and chapters are from the song and I recommend you listen to it because it's such a beautiful song! Also thank you to my three reviewers on my first ever fic:Nicolle,Adena and Honey97! My first ever reviewers! I was absolutely buzzing! Thank you again and I really appreciate the time you took out to review, it means a lot to me.

I do not own the Ed Sheeran's 'Kiss Me' and Ugly Betty.

Hope you enjoy

Kiss Me

Chapter One: Like You Wanna Be Loved

''…But you have to believe me when I say this: you are beautiful,'' he said in a soft but stern and serious voice because he wanted her to believe him. Betty looked at him, too weak to fight with him curled into Daniel's chest as he wrapped his arms around her. He sighed as he realised she didn't believe him but he said it before and he'll say again until she did believe him.

He gripped her tightly. Tears streamed down her face, her hair was slightly mussed and her lips were trembling. She never looked so beautiful. He shivered as he realised that he's never felt so sure of anything in his life.

Betty moved away from him slightly, feeling a bit better but Daniel was still holding onto her as she looked up at him. In her hazel eyes Daniel saw something he never wanted to see in Betty's eyes again. A sadness that he knew was there but she hid very well. That she wasn't good enough. He had seen a hint of it when everyone laughed at her when she wore those model clothes. He was such a jerk back then and it hurt him when he remembered he was the one who made her feel that way. She had to have realised that she was worth ten of those girls.

Betty was one of a kind and she had to know that.

"You are the most beautiful woman I know."

Daniel hadn't realised he said that out loud until Betty intruded his thoughts, "Daniel just stop. Its fine I already feel better, you don't have to keep going on." Her voice trying to be playful came across broken and dejected. Betty felt mortified that she had let something like this affect her so much; she knew what type of girl she wasn't. Daniel's attempts to try prove otherwise made her feel so embarrassed.

Daniel became frustrated at Betty. Why couldn't she see Daniel's words weren't empty platitudes but heartfelt and true? Daniel never wanted to see her like this again. When she was happy her soft brown eyes burned with passion and her smile brightened Daniel's day. Daniel wanted to say all this to Betty and more but he didn't know how. "No, Betty it's true…" Daniel started to say as he was trying to find the right words to express himself.

However, she was already cutting him off, persistent and stubborn as ever, "Daniel you don't have to..."

"Don't have to what?" He cut her off too as he couldn't stand hearing her say such things about herself, "tell you that you're insanely beautiful. That you take my breath away! That any guy, who doesn't see that doesn't deserve you!" He heard himself shouting at the end of his little speech and he internally cringed. Realising he was squeezing Betty's arms, he let go and stepped away from her. It's frustrating seeing guys like Wilbur, Henry and Jesse just letting a women like Betty go. Not seeing her worth and what was even more frustrating was that Betty didn't see it herself.

Daniel was breathing so heavily now, Betty didn't know what had gotten into him. She had never seen him so passionate except maybe when watching baseball. Betty didn't know what had gotten into her as well, her tears were still flowing freely down her cheeks. But she wasn't sure whether it was because she was still distraught about Jesse or because she was so touched by what Daniel had said. Maybe it was a bit of both. "Hey it's ok," she started to stoke his arm; "I know I'm not that kind of girl and I'm ok with that." She even tried a weak smile for him through her tears.

She was trying to make him feel better and Daniel despaired at this. Why couldn't she see he was telling the truth? He just wished someone could have shown her how beautiful she is.

Show her that she deserved to feel wanted.

Show her that she deserved to be loved.

Even with her sad smile, her lips were so full and curvy. They were always so irresistible. Looking into her watery eyes, he felt so hopeless. He had no idea how to make her believe him...

"Kiss me," he whispered as if he was afraid of his own idea. He was afraid that she would hear him and reject him.

"What?" Betty questioned knowing she must have misheard him. Her body despite herself moved forward as if a tether in her heart was pulling her towards him.

The outright surprise on Betty's face at his proposition was a blow to his ego but then Daniel gained more confidence as he saw that despite being shocked, Betty stepped closer to him. He crushed Betty into him and he held her there tight in his arms, afraid he would lose his nerve.

She had to have heard him wrong. Betty looked at Daniel's blue eyes searching for an answer. She was met with determination, conviction and maybe even lust. Her ears and now her eyes were failing her.

Daniel never being more sure said forcefully, "kiss me! And I'll show you." He wanted her. At this time, in this moment he wanted her to know how much. Daniel took a leap of faith as he leaned forward; eyes closed hoping that he wouldn't be rejected.

Betty could feel his breath on her lips and she wasn't sure if this was right. She shook her head from side to side, searching for the right thing to do. What was he doing? This was playboy Daniel and he was her boss! Her friend. Her best friend! And she could still feel the tears on her cheek from her heartbreak about Jesse.

But then he whispered almost desperately, "Kiss me. Kiss me like you want to be loved."

All her doubts melted away.

The only thing left was Daniel.

So she held him close, closed her eyes and she kissed him.
