Kat flopped down on her bed. Patrick Verona had kissed her, and she was happy about that. Really happy. But what if he was lying. Not to mention Kat had to tell him how she felt about him tomorrow, or Bianca would. Kat sighed. How was she going to tell him? How would he react? Did he feel the same? Will he turn her down? What if he laughs in her face? All these questions ran through Kats head, as she drifted off to sleep.

Kat parked farthest from the school, because she was completely nervous. Sure she usually never got nervous, but she was about to spill all of her feelings out to Patrick. This was going to be harder than she thought.

Bianca got out with Kat and started talking to her. Reminding her that she had to tell him today.

" Ok, so tell him at lunch. I'll be watching incase you get stuck. So don't worry." Bianca exclaimed. Kat said nothing, and just nodded her head, yes. Bianca and her went separate ways, and Kat walked to her locker.

She fumbled with the combination. She hit her locker so hard, her fist felt like it had just been broken. Patrick was the only thing she could think about. Someone behind her hit her locker, and it snapped open. She turned to face the one and only Patrick Verona.

" Thanks." She said, calmly.

" No problem. Nice to know that your talking to me again. So what did you want to tell me yesterday?" Patrick asked. Kat all of a sudden got shaky again, and turned to get her books out of her locker.

" Um, I'll tell you later. I got to get to class." Kat replied, then slammed her locker shut, and quickly walked away. Patrick stared after her, completely confused.

Time passed, as lunch got nearer and nearer. Kat couldn't concentrate on any of her classes, and Patrick seemed to noticed. Mandela thought that Patrick had raped her, and that's why she was so far off. Kat rarely talked to anyone, and kept thinking about everything that could go wrong. And when lunch came, Kat was trying not to faint at all the pressure. Bianca met her at her locker, and seemed to notice how nervous Kat was.

" Ok, there he is. Go tell him." Bianca said, giving Kat a little shove. Kat turned around to face Bianca and started to complain.

" I can't. What if he laughs? Bianca please don't make me do this." Kat pleaded. Bianca stood strong, as she shook her head no, with her hands on her hips.

" No. Your telling him." Bianca replied, pushing Kat again. Kat bit her lip.

" I can't." Kat simply said. Bianca sighed. This is were she come in.

" Patrick!?" Bianca shouted. Patrick turned to face her, and saw Kat with wide eyes, and mouth open. Bianca walked over to him, and dragged Kat with her. Kat struggled to get away, but couldn't. Patrick stood there, as Bianca began to speak.

" My sister has something to tell you." Bianca said simply, then pulled Kat in front of her. Kat turned to look at Bianca with pleading eyes. Bianca nodded her head, and Patrick raised his eyebrows. Kat looked at Patrick, with mouth agape, and tried to say something, but nothing came out. She was barley breathing, and Bianca seemed to realized, and slapped her on the back. Kat coughed, and tried to calm herself down some.

" Come on Stratford. Spit it out." Patrick said, smirking, as he realized her embarrassment.

" Fine." Kat said crossing her arms, and looking down.

" What I wanted to tell you yesterday, was that, well, um." Kat began, trying not to shake. She bit her lip, and Patrick watched as she struggled.

" This is going to sound completely dumb, but, I-I." Bianca was holding her breath, as Kat tried to find the words to let him know how she felt.

" If you have something to say, then just say it." Patrick exclaimed, with one hand in his pocket. Kat nodded, and tried. AGAIN.

" Ok well, I kind of, like you." She whispered. Patrick strained to hear as she spoke.

" What?" He asked. She finally looked up at him, and spoke.

" I like you." She stated. He stood there for a minute, shocked about her confession.

" You like me?" He asked. Kat opened her mouth, and suddenly gained confidence.

" No. I don't just like you. I don't know how, but I love you. And I know that you think that I'm just like Summer, and all of your other fan girls, and that's fine, but, I just had to say it." Kat replied, looking him straight in his eyes. A thousand emotions passed through his eyes, as he tried to wrap his mind around what she had said. Bianca squealed.

Kat turned to walk away, but Patrick caught her wrist, and spun her around, then crashed his lips to hers. Bianca's mouth hit the floor, and Kats eyes widened. One of Patrick's arms were put on her neck, to push her closer, and the other was on Kats cheek. Her hands were a little above his waste, as she gripped his shirt. People around them looked in awe. A few weeks ago, Kat had dumped trash on Patrick, and now she was practically making out with him. His lips tasted some what of cinnamon, and autumn. He deepened the kiss, and pulled her closer if that were possible. Too soon they needed air, and broke away, panting from the loss of breath.

" I love you too Kat." Patrick said, and Kat smiled.

" Glad to hear it." Kat replied. They hadn't moved there positions, and Kat felt Patrick chuckle. Bianca was practically jumping up and down.

" YES! Now I can finally date!" She yelled. Kat and Patrick paid no attention to her, as they continued there conversation.

" Now you have something new to right in your diary." Patrick exclaimed, smirking.

" I like to call it journal. Not diary." Kat spoke.

" Well, journal then." Patrick corrected himself.

" Oh, and if you really love me, you'll still be with me after you meet my dad." Kat said, getting serious. Patrick laughed, thinking she was joking. He saw her face, and stopped laughing.

" Is he really that bad?" Patrick asked.

" YES!" Kat and Bianca shouted at the same time, the minute he finished his sentence.

" Well I can behave." Patrick said, giving Kat a smile.

" Good, because your coming to meet him tonight." Kat exclaimed. Patrick looked a little worried.

---------------

The doorbell rang, and Mr. Stratford got up to answer it.

When he opened the door he saw Patrick standing there.

" Who are you?" Mr. Stratford asked rudely.

" I'm Kats boyfriend." Patrick answered, and held at his hand.

Mr. Stratford took his hand, and squeezed it hard. Patrick winced a little.

" If you do ANYTHING to hurt my daughter in ANY way your going to lose some body parts. I'm a doctor, and trust me, I know which parts hurt the worst." Mr. Stratford exclaimed. Patrick nodded. Kat was right. Her father was scary. That's when Kat came down the stairs in her blue - black dress, with her hair up in a bun. She looked to see her dad talking to someone at the door, and rushed to it, to see Patrick. He looked kind of worried, and she smirked at this.

" Dad, I'm going now." Kat spoke up, and her dad turned to face her. He pointed at her, and started speaking.

" No drugs, no drinking, and NO sex. Understand?" Her father replied.

" Aren't you supposed to tell Bianca that. Dad, I know how to take care of myself. And besides, Patrick won't try anything, so calm down." Kat exclaimed, rolling her eyes. And before he could say anything else, Kat grabbed Patrick's hand and dashed out the door. Her father sighed. His baby was growing up.

" You weren't joking when you said he was overprotective." Patrick chuckled.

" Of course not. And I must say, you look good in a suit." Kat replied looking him up and down.

" And you look good in a dress." Patrick stated, smirking. Kat blushed a little, then got into Patrick's car, and he drove of to the fall fling.

They were together.

And that's the way it is.
