    I nervously sat in the airport holding my 'Hi Dirk' sign against my chest. The plane had just landed, and he was supposed to be getting off by now. I pushed my glasses back up on my face and stood up. Fixing my skirt, I held the sign so he could see it when we met.

    I looked around the crowd, and spotted a man walking towards me. He was quite tall, with pointed sunglasses and a t-shirt with a hat on it. He was wearing black pants and white sneakers. He smiled as he came closer to me, a genuine smile.

"Hi Janey." I dropped the sign and ran into his arms. He laughed as he swung me around. There were a few 'awws' from around us. I didn't care. I had my best friend with me. "Oh Dirk. It's so good to see you!" I hugged him again and buried my face in his chest. He was so tall compared to my short stature!

"Its great to see you too, Janey."

    We then made our way through Sea-Tac airport. I lead Dirk through baggage claim, through terminal 4, and down to the second parking floor. From there I took him to my car. "Sorry its so small......dad bought it so it would be easier to get around." He starred at my light blue Toyota Prius. I could feel my hands start to sweet and my face go red from embarrassment.  .

    Dirk smiled. "I like it. It screams your name." I sighed in relief and smiled back at him. After putting his single bag in the trunk, we got in the car. Dirk had to adjust his seat though.

    As I drove away from the airport, a smile came over my lips. 2 weeks. Two whole weeks that Dirk Strider was staying with me. I jumped slightly in my seat, and almost hit someone. "SORRY!" I screeched. Dirk only chuckled at me.

"So I was thinking I would show you Pike Place Market. And then we could stop at the pier. And the gum wall. Its really disgusting, but very interesting. And then We will go back to my house and rest. It's a 1 hour drive, but I want to stop for dinner at the Macaroni Grill. Is that alright?" Dirk looked over at me, a slight smile on his face. "Whatever you want to do, I'll be there." I blushed.

~~~~~~~~

"So this is the gum wall." I gestured to the strange sight before us. I watched as Dirk's eyebrows rose above his glasses. "Holy Shit." He fumbled for his phone and took a picture. "Dave is gonna love this." I smiled and watched Dirk send the picture to his Lil Bro. As I recalled today's events, I only smiled wider.

    We had gone down to the market. As I showed him all the shops and stores, he would whip out his phone and take a picture. Every time I tried to buy something, Dirk would beat me to it. I would protest, but he would just put up his hand and say, "I can't let my best friend buy everything for me! It's fucking rude, Janey."

    When we were browsing the food, I had, or Dirk had, bought all kinds of food. I had shrimp, lobster tails, crab legs, strawberries, raspberries, blueberries, cherry, chocolate, pasta, white peaches, flour, soups, a pair of matching shirts, postcards, key chains, and a few beautiful bouquets of flowers. Dirk had even picked one out just for me.

    The pier was amazing too. We snacked and talked, we took a ride on the carasol, and we stopped at the original Starbucks on our way back to the car. It was an amazing day. "Jane. Janey!" I looked up at the man who was shaking me. I smiled. "Oh! Hello there Dirk! Sorry! I was thinking about what I wanted to get at the grill!" He only shook his head and stole some of my many bags.

"Come on. Lets get going. I don't want to keep my girl hungry!" I walked along beside him, until I realized what he just said. His girl? HIS GIRL?! I just about had a heart attack. I blushed as I looked at the ground and continued walking.

~~~~~~~~

==> Be Dirk

I think I just made things awkward.

    I just called Jane my girl. My girl. Shit. Fuck. Dammit. Fucking son of a dick. That wasn't supposed to slip! I just messed this up. Thank god she can't see my face! I don't think she is faring any better...... I risk a glance at her. Yup. Shes blushing alright. I fight down the pink tint that threatens to show on my cheeks as I keep walking.

    The car ride there wasn't any better. It was almost 6 by the time we made it to the restaurant. I was just glad to be out of the car. As we walked to the front desk, I expected her to wait in line, but she walked past everyone, and walked into the kitchen. "Lucy!" Jane called. "Ah! Jane, darling! Its so good to see you! Is this the boy you've been talking about?"

    The lady named Lucy said all of that as she hugged Jane, and looked over to me. Janey blushed. "U-h-mmmmm Th-this is Dirk strider.....h-he's my best friend." She stuttered. She didn't look at me.

Fuck.

    The woman then came up and hugged me. Before I could hug her back, she pulled away and smiled at me; pinching my cheeks. "Jane, oh! He's so handsome! This one's a good one. I can tell. Unlike that Jake person....." She mumbled the last sentence. I struggled to keep my poker face.

"Does he smile at all, Jane?" Lucy asked, letting me go. Jane finally looked up at me, a sweet smile gracing her lips. "Oh he does. He save his smiles. They are quite beautiful to see too." She looked at her feet, the nervous smile still on her face. I risked a sweet smile her way.

    I scooted over to her and took Jane's hand in mine. Her face only turned redder. Lucy gave me a knowing look and grabbed a few menus. "Follow me dears." This time, I swear to any fucking god that she was going to sit us in the private room. No. She brought us to a spot with few people, and halfway between any point inside. So pretty much the fucking middle.

    Lucy placed the menus on the table and left to get us water and coke. Jane had gotten me addicted to it. If you didn't know any better, you would have thought that we were a couple in love on our first date. It was that awkward. I cleared my throat.

"So. What should I get? You seem to come here a lot. Maybe you can give me some advice." Jane smiled. Soon enough we were back to our normal conversational talk. We had ordered the rosemary bread, and were snaking on it while we waiting for our dinner. We had both ordered the baked macaroni and cheese.

"So he started to explain his day. 'By golly Strider! It was the most wondrous adventure I have been on yet!' I just looked at him. 'Jake,' I started, 'I swear to god if you keep talking I will start singing pon pon pon.' Well that sure shut him up!" Jane laughed.

"That is a pretty bad punishment there, dirk. You singing is like me dancing!" I acted hurt.

"Janey! How could you say such a horrendous thing! My singing is wonderful! I sound like an angel from heaven above!" She laughed again.

"Oh yeah! And I look like a super model from a fashion magazine." The sarcasm was clear in her voice. I frowned.

"Jane,"

"Yes, Dirk?" I glared at her through my shades. "You're beautiful, okay? So don't fucking put yourself down. It makes me so pissed that you think so lowly of yourself, when you are everything to me!" Her eyes widened as she turned a deep shade of red.

"Y-you are my best friend after all....." Nice one Strider. Way to fucking fix it. So (un)ironic. Man dude you REALLY fucked that one up this time. Jane blushed and looked at the table.

I swear, I was crashing and burning.

    Just as I was about to embarrass myself even more, our food came. The waiter placed the bowl on the table. Jane and I were both too shocked to move. We just starred at the single bowl in front of us. I couldn't fight the blush on my cheeks.

'Have fun on your date, kids!
    ~ Lucy'

Oh my god.

Is that what this is?

A date?

~One week later~

==> Be Jane

    I laughed my head off as dirk walked in. "SWEET LORD DIRK! WHAT ON EARTH ARE YOU EVEN WEARING? IS THAT A-" He put a finger to my lips. I was still laughing. "Shshshshhhhhhsshshshshshhhhhhhhhhhsssshshshshshhhhhh! shhhh!" I almost feel out of the chair.

"Yes it is now shut up. I have a gift for you." I smiled. And what would that gift be, Strider?"

He smiled as he opened his laptop. After typing in a few things, and a couple of clicks, a tune started to play. A new flow of laughter escaped my mouth. "Oh my golly Dirk! What are you doing-" I was cut off my his accented voice.

"ano kousaten de minna ga moshi SUKIPPU wo shite

    I was laughing my head off at this point. "DIRK NOOOOOO~! I CAN"T BREATH~!" He got up and started dancing around the room like a freak. I only laughed harder. And then the chorus began.

"PON PON dashite shimaeba ii no

     I could only hiccup and smile mechanically as my face felt broken. Dirk then grabbed my hairbrush and used it as a microphone as he posed on my desk, knocking over a few books in the process. My dad would be in here any minute now.

"PON PON dashite shimaeba ii no

    So my dad decided this was a GOOD time to come into my room. Dirk hadn't noticed that my dad was now standing wide eyed in the door way. After a few awkward seconds, he took a quick photo, and left the room in a hurry. I tried to laugh without killing myself.

    When the song had ended, I was wheezing. My glasses had even become fogged up. "Thank you Dirk! Now I can't see!" The joking tone in my voice was clearly evident. Nevertheless, the young strider carefully took my glasses off of my face. The image was blurry, but I could see him clean off my glasses for me.

    After he finished, Dirk slowly placed my glasses back on my face for me. Was he blushing? As my vision came back, I saw him tunn his head away from me. This only caused my face to inherit the pink on Dirk's cheeks. He coughed and looked at the clock. "I uhh.....think we should go to sleep." I muttered my reply and we got ready for bed.

Dirk was sleeping on my floor.

==> Be The Nervous Strider

    My face was still pink. I can't believe this! STRIDERS DON'T SHOW EMOTIONS! But Jane was doing this to me.......Thank god she's asleep. She's out fast.

    Suddenly, in the middle of my internal debate, Jane's computer went off. I looked at her pesterchum. Jake. Fucking perfect.

Shit.

GG: sorry dude gotta go now
GT: You didn't answer the question, Strider.

This was going to be a long week.

==> Be Jane

"HERE WE ARE!" I threw my arms up in a gesture to the beautiful sight before me. I had brought Dirk to a place near Deception Pass. I didn't know the name, but I loved coming here anyway. And the sun had decided to come out today. It was a pretty perfect scene.

    I squinted at Dirk's figure and smiled. I didn't have those glasses that tinted in different lights. So I could barely see anything. "Dirk! Set up the picnic! I would like to take a picture." He had been strangely silent throughout this entire day. With a few words or grunts thrown in. Nonetheless, he began setting up the picnic as I took some pictures of the pass.

    I really loved the perch we were on. It was a favorite spot of my dad and I. So starring at Puget sound, a lovely picnic set up, a wonderful day, and a handsome boy at my side, we finished our last day together. But still silent as ever, Dirk wrapped an arm around my shoulders as we watched the beautiful spring sun set.

~~~~~~~~

    We sat in the airport. I was crying. It feel strange to cry over Dirk. I know I'll hear from him again......I just.......I don't want him to leave me; Washington. I was sobbing into his shoulder as Dirk rubbed my back, soothing me. "Shhhhhhh, Janey. I'll see you again we just have to wai-" He was cut off.

"NOW BOARDING ALL FIRST-CLASS PASSENGERS FOR HUSTON, TEXAS FLIGHT." I choked back a sob. We stood up and walked to the gate. Dirk pulled me over to the side. He took off his shades and starred into my blue eyes with his orange ones. He looked purely sad. "I'll miss you Janey." He pulled me in for a bone crushing hug.

    With one last glance, he placed his sunglasses back on his face and walked to the man checking the tickets. There were a few people in front of him. So he waited in line. I watched him give the man his ticket.

What happened next I had no control of.

"DIRK!" I yelled. He turned around as I ran the 50 feet into his arms. I jumped up and smashed my lips against his. This caused both of our glasses to be knocked to the floor. He wasted no time in pulling me closer to himself. There were once again a few 'awws' and 'thats so sweets!' from around us. I even thought I heard one, 'I ship it.'

    I pulled away gasping and blushing. "Dirk I love you! Please don't leave now!" His orange eyes turned loving and caring in that moment, and a beautiful smile formed against his lips. He nodded at me. His eyes were so full of love; love for me.

"Okay. I'll stay awhile longer, Janey. Anything for you." He then proceeded this kiss me again.

    30 minutes later, we watched as his plane took off. "I love you too, Jane." He whispered.

I blushed and smiled up at him.

Spring break went better than I thought it would.
