(Quick A/N: Hey, Loves, I just wanted to let you know something about this chapter, It will have some abuse in it, over the fact, that Andrew and Alisa are back together, don't worry, Andrew isn't the abusive one...... read to find out.)

"Why did Denise kiss me?" Derek asked himself, turning onto his back as he looked up at his bedroom ceiling, laying his arms on his stomach. 

"Why did I kiss her in the first place?" he turned over to his side. "Was I rushing things with her?" Derek knew that the last question he asked himself wasn't true. "Am I in Love with Denise?" he asked himself.

"Was Derek rushing things with us?" Denise asked herself as she got into bed. "Did he want to....No, He wouldn't want me for that, maybe he does love me but he's scared to say it." she turned in bed, looking out her bedroom window. "Maybe, he loves someone else, maybe he's just playing with my heart like Todd did or maybe he's different from Todd."

"Does she love me?" Derek asked himself, "We might have different tastes in music, but does she love me?"

"Does he love me?" Denise asked herself, "he must love me, cause over how much he and I kissed before he left my house, he gave me a peck on the lips, then kissed me when we saw each other after the musical was over, could he feel the same way?" She didn't know if she was fooling herself or not.
"Could she feel the same way, I know we are only thirteen and they say, you fall in love three times, could Denise and I end up together or would it end up the way it did with Shelly?" Derek asked himself, hugging his pillow, holding it close to his chest as he tried to sleep."I mean, What would she see in me?"

"What does he see in me?" Denise asked herself, hugging up to her stuffed owl. "I'm not his type of girl."

"I'm always crying." Derek named off, "about the dumbest things."

"I don't have  melons on my chest." Denise blabbed, "Derek might want a girl who has melons."

"I wear glasses, I sleep with no shirt on."

"I listen to The Rolling Stones."

"I love Queen."

"I'm an Aquarius."

"I'm a Leo."

"I couldn't imagine why she would want me," Derek asked himself, "But The real question is, would she be the same way, Shelly was?"

"I couldn't imagine what he sees in me," Denise asked herself, "I wouldn't even want to go out with me if I was him." she fell asleep shortly after. 

That Sunday.....

Sarah was on her phone as her mother called her downstairs. "Sarah Renee!" Her mother shouted up the stairs for her. "Coming!" Sarah replied, walking down the stairs, to see her mother, standing by a tall man. "Sarah, this is Russell." Her mother blabbed, "Your stepdad."

Sarah's eyes went big. "My stepdad?" her mother looked at her. "Yes, Russell and I were dating for a few months, now, Russell and I.... are engaged." She showed Sarah her ring that Russell gave her, it was a baby blue diamond on a silver band that was on her tan finger. "Mom, Can I talk to you for a minute....alone," Sarah asked. 

'Yeah, sure, honey." she replied, they walked up to Sarah's bedroom, she closed the door behind her. "What the actual-" Sarah began but got cut off by her mother. "Don't even say it, Sarah." 

"When were you going to tell me that you were going to replace dad?" Sarah's mother got up from Sarah's bed. "What do you mean by replacing?" She asked, "Your father passed away, Sarah." She crossed her arms. "I know that, but I thought you said, that you would never look at another man after dad died!" Sarah yelled, her mother slapped her across the face. "Now, Stop it, you are thirteen years old, the time you grow up and act like a mature adult."
