Brennan's POV:
I looked at the time. 3:30. I decided to shower now so my hair would be dry when I was going to get ready. I hopped in the shower and let the warm water soak my body. The hot shower felt amazing after last night, punching and uncomfortable sleeping. After I got out I just put on my sweats and a T-shirt.
Annie and Katie were still not back. So j went and sat down with Caleb, who was watching old videos.
I laughed at the memories we had.
"Remember all the brannie pictures from that one video." I chuckled, remember the day of our own 'olympics'.
"You guys are gonna make a cute couple." He grinned.
"Wait, 'gonna'?" I said, hoping he didn't know about the date just yet.
"I wasn't fully asleep yet. I know about your date. And you might as well know me and Sydney are dating. And I'm pretty sure Katie is going after the guy she was with last night." Caleb went on.
"So uh... Lots of relationships." I said awkwardly. He nodded his head and continued to watch the videos for another hour.
"Oh wow... That 2016 blizzard. I was stuck with Amanda and Emily for three days." Caleb laughed, rolling his eyes.
We kept watching videos and finally Katie and Annie were home.
"Hey." They said in unison. Annie went downstairs and Katie sat next to us watching the old vlogs.

Annie's POV:
It was already almost 5 o clock by the time we were finally home. I rushed downstairs downstairs to shower. I quickly shaved and cleaned myself before hopping out to blow dry and curl my brown locks. I slid into my new outfit and ripped the tags off. Lastly, I applied some natural eyeshadow and dark red lipstick. I checked the time again to see it was already 6:00, and I rushed my things into my bag before running upstairs and outside. Brennan was waiting in their own truck.
He smirked playfully as I sat in the passenger seat.
"Just made it." He said, pulling out the frosty driveway. He looked like he had dressed warmer than I did, and I grabbed a beanie that was thankfully already in my bag and slid it on over my curls. It was peacefully quiet as we drive to our destination, and I just stared into Brennan's face the whole way. Some might think it's creepy, but I'm realizing how much I've already fallen for him.
We finally pulled into the parking lot if the skating rink and I smiled. I wasn't a very good skater, but it was going to make for an amazing date.
He grabbed my hand as we walked inside to rent ice skates. I looked around the cozy cafe and shop outside the rink, and noticed Liv sitting on a bench, tying the laces of her skates. I quickly looked away and brushed it off; I was with Brennan. I could focus on him.
We got our skates and tied them up tightly and waddled into the rink. The second my skates were in the ice I almost fell, and Brennan laughed whilst holding me steady. After a few falls and tripping, I was finally getting the hang of it. Brennan was already pretty good at it. We were doing laps around the rink, talking, until we were interrupted by a young girl and her friends who wanted a picture with us. Instantly I remembered how we forgot to vlog at all so far, and I pulled out my phone to record with the viewers.
After I shut it off, one of the girls was squealing and talking to Brennan. I caught up with them and tuned my ears to the conversation.
"So it's #Brannie finally a thing?" She asked hopefully.
"If you want it to be." He grinned, looking back at me.
The girls squealed one more time before skating away. Brennan slowed down so I could catch up and grabbed my hand. His was surprisingly warm, and it made a match against my cold, cold hands.
We did some more laps and chatted with eachother before we decided we were getting cold. We went inside the building and untied our skates. I walked over to the cafe part, Brennan close behind. I ordered a medium decaf cappuccino with extra foam and Brennan just ordered a simple coffee. We sat down in a booth with our coffees.
"I had a lot of fun tonight." I said smiling whilst sipping my coffee. He nodded in agreement.
"You know, I've liked you for a couple years now. I always thought you barely knew I exsisted." He confessed.
"Of course I noticed you. How couldn't I? I just never thought I would like you this much." I blushed. I drank more coffee. It was late, but never too late for coffee.

Brennan's POV:
We finished our drinks and headed out the building doors. Our night was coming to a close. We were almost to the truck when it's started suddenly pouring rain. Out of nowhere. Now, if it stayed cold like this, there would either be ice or slush everywhere. I grunted and grabbed Annie's hand and we ran to the truck. She laughed once we were in the safety of the vehicle.
"Where did that come from?" She panted. She peeled off her wet beanie and coat. I handed her my sweatshirt that was in the back seat and she giggled as the size swallowed her petite body. I drove us home through the pouring rain, and as I pulled in the driveway, Annie spoke.
"I think I love you." She mumbled, and I don't think she meant for me to hear. We ran into the covered front door, where we were dry.
"I think I love you too." I said, and our lips crashed together. She wrapped her arms around my neck and we shared a long and passionate kiss.
After we pulled away for air, she smiled and held my hand. Thunder boomed and she shrieked before running inside. I laughed and followed her.

Gah, two kisses in one day!
I've been writing these last few chapters almost all day, so I think I'm going to stop for the night. I'll be sure to update later though!
Hope you enjoyed💙
