I have been awake for a few hours and I really needed to go to the bathroom. I didn't want to wake up Brian because he was still asleep. I liked how he was snoring.

I saw the time and it was 9:30 am. I should try to get up by myself. I tried to turn on my left arm, but I felt a sharp pain in my right arm. I tried to hold in the pain so I wouldn't wake up Brian.

I laid on my back before trying a few more attempts. I tried one last time, but this time I really hurt myself. I whined too loud and laid back down.

"Annie are you ok? Are you in pain?" He said sitting up.

"I need to go to the bathroom, but I didn't want to wake you up."

Brian stretched, "Baby, you should've woken me up. I'd rather not get my full sleep than you being in pain."

He got up and went over to my side. He gently put his hand on my back and his other hand under my legs. Then he lifted me up and walked to the bathroom.

I smiled as he walked up the stairs. "Why are you smiling?"

"Because you've never carried me before," I admitted.

"Well then I should carry you more often."

When we got to the bathroom he put me down and I told him I could take it from there.

After washing my hands I came out of the bathroom and Brian was waiting down the hall. "I thought you went back downstairs.."

"No, why would I? Annie..until you recover I'm going to be there for you. Even if it's 4am or 8pm."

My heart fluttered after he said that. Now Brian would be around me more than ever.

"Oh, I need to brush my teeth," I reminded him.

We went back to the room and I felt some pain in my arm. "Brian my arm hurts."

"I'll give you your pill, I'll be back."

While I waited for Brian to get my pills I thought about how he would make a good husband. What was so wrong to think about that?

I know I messed up with Niall, but I would try my best to keep me and Brian together. I really did love him with all my heart. The way he carried me upstairs made me have a love tingly feeling.

"Ok, I'm back." Brian handed me my cup of water and made me open my mouth. He put the pill inside my mouth and I drank my water. Ugh, that pill tasted awful!

"Thank you," I said handing him back the cup.

"Of course. Anything for you Annie."

When he was gone I sat there and heard a knock on the door. Who could that be? Oh, maybe it was Madeline..

I got up and was going to open the door, but my dad beat me to it. "Hello! Who are you?" Yup, that was definitely Madeline.

I made my way to the door, "Madeline, this is my dad. Dad, this is Madeline. She's my friend from college."

"Ohhh, nice to meet you Madeline."

"Likewise. Annie how have..what happened to your arm?" She stepped inside the house.

"Come with me." I lead her into my room and I told her everything. From my dad coming back to Brian carrying me to the bathroom.

"Every time I'm gone something happens! How do you feel?"

"I'm alright right now, but I was having some pain. Brian already gave me my pain pills for it."

Her face had a shocked expression, "He gave them to you with his hand? Or did you take them?"

"He gave them to me. So how was your trip? Anything happen?"

Madeline told me her trip was terrible. That whenever her brother got a chance he would make her do his chores. She really hated doing his stuff for him.

I pouted, "I wish I was there, but at least your back at your house right?"

She nodded, "Yeah that's true."

Brian knocked on the door, "Sorry for interrupting, but are you guys hungry?"

Madeline stood up, "I would stay, but I have to go unpack. Maybe next time I'll stay."

Madeline said goodbye and left me there alone with Brian.

BRIAN'S POV

"Where did my dad go?" Annie asked me.

"Oh, he said was going to get something from the store."

The truth was her dad told me he was going to get Annie a present for Christmas. I told him to go because I wanted alone time with my girl.

Me and Annie were watching tv, but Annie was on my right side so she would be uncomfortable.

"Does your arm hurt?"

"It doesn't."

Annie laid her head near my chest. I was loving this moment with just Annie. I've missed being alone with her and I was glad her dad wasn't here.

I ran my fingers through her beautiful hair. Annie let out a tiny laugh.

"Why are you laughing?"

"Because I'm enjoying this moment. I love being with you." The words made me love her more. Some day I would make her my wife.

"I am too Annie. I love you so much."

She turned her head to face me, "I love you too Brian."

I looked at her eyes and then at her lips. I leaned my head down and kissed her.

Our lips touching always made me nervous. They were soft and I loved how she kissed me back. I could feel her wanting to smile as I kept on kissing her.

I broke our kiss, "I know you're mine, but I can't wait for you to have my last name someday."

I thought of the idea of Annie being my wife and how someday we could have children.

Sorry for making this short, but I just wanted to say something about what happened with Brian.

I don't support his actions, but he's still a BSB to me. I'll support Brian music wise, but not what he supports. Brian is my favorite BSB. He's not my favorite because he supports something I don't. He's my favorite because he's funny, his personality, his vocals and so on!

Instead of hating him and calling him out focus on the good things such as his relationship with the other BSB. Or how he makes his jokes.

We don't need to bring Brian down, instead let's show him we love him! Putting aside his beliefs, he truly loves us (his fans) no matter what. Remember that in the end love out wins hatred and hating just shows your true self.
