Oh Love...

Chapter 16: The Next Step

Carrie's POV

Brad: Well I don't know about you but I am so relieved after all of this. I hope nothing like this ever happens again!

Carrie: I feel the same way! All I care about now is that she's alive and okay.

Brad: Yeah....gosh I am so tired, we really need to get some sleep.

Carrie: I know, I'm so pooped after today. This whole thing has just been exhausting!! We really just need to take it easy and relax now..

We showed up to the house and Brad opened the car door for me. I could never get over how much of a gentleman he was. I adored that about him!

Carrie: Thanks honey..

Brad: Is that what you think of me? As a sweet sticky substance?!

Carrie: Haha maybe...

I walked up to Brad and got in his face.

Carrie: WELL, you are pretty sweet and I'm stuck to you soooo.....

He smiled that beautiful smile.

Brad: Wow, you have to be the cheesiest person I've ever met.

Carrie: But you love that about me.

Brad: Haha of course I do...

We walked inside and we both took our jackets off and hung them on the coat rack.

Brad: Are you just gonna sleep over again tonight? There's plenty room in my bed haha!

Carrie: Haha might as well, since there's room! I'm too lazy to drive home anyways, I'd rather be here with you than be alone at home.

Brad: Haha awww I feel so special!

Carrie: Oh Brad, you ARE special....Special ED!

Brad: How dare you!

Carrie: Haha I'm just messing with you. Either way I'd still love you.

Brad gave me a playful pouty face.

Brad: You hurt my feelings! Waaaaaaaa!

Carrie: Come on big baby, let's go to bed, silly.

Brad and I laughed all the way upstairs. I grabbed one of his shirts and changed into it in the bathroom. It smelled just like him!

*Author's note. Yes she has pants on, this isn't a naughty scene or anything*

Brad: You rock that shirt better than I do, Carrie! hahaha!

I laid down on the bed and before you know it Brad and I were both out!

*The Next Morning*

Brad's POV

I slowly opened my eyes and saw Carrie lying next to me. I swear I am always awake before she is! My stomach growled, I looked at the clock, it was 10 already. I let out a grunt and got up. I went to the bathroom, walked downstairs, and decided to make breakfast for Carrie and myself. She'll probably be hungry when she wakes up, right? haha. Now where are those eggs at? Oh yeah, they're in the fridge. DUH!

Sometimes I question my intelligence...before I started cooking my cell phone rang. It was mom! I picked it up.

Brad: Hi mom!

Mrs. Paisley: Hi honey! How are you? I haven't heard from you in a couple days, just wanted to see what you've been up to.

Brad: I've been really busy this past week with Carrie and some other things we had going on.
