Chapter 11

Patrick's pov

Brandie's lips met mine and I froze for a second before kissing her back. She pulled away from the kiss blushing. I tilted her chin up and kissed her again gently before asking,

"Will you go out with me?"

She nodded smiling. I kissed her again and looked at my watch. HOLY FUCKING SHIT!

I grabbed her hand pulling her out saying, "It's 2 am. Pete's gonna kill us! Well me not you! And we shouldn't tell him we're dating. Yet anyway."

She nodded saying, "I completely agree." We got in the car and we each looked at our phones. I had 1,234 missed texts and 2,304 missed calls from PATD and Andy, Joe, and Pete. Brandie's phone at 1,078 missed texts and 3,459 missed calls. We looked at each other and I floored it. We got to Pete's and I leaned over and kissed her saying,

"Okay Pete's gonna kill us." We scrambled out of my car and raced to the front door.

Brandie's pov

Before I could open the door it flew open and Pete stood there. He grabbed me in a bear hug yelling,

"Never do that again! Where the fuck did you guys go!? We were all fucking worried out of our minds!"

I smiled before saying shyly, "Ummm I got bored so we went to a dance club."

Pete face palmed and looked at Patrick asking, "You couldn't answer my calls or texts!? Or tell me where you were going!?"

Patrick shrugged saying, "We left our phones in the car. And Brandie was telling me about the place. I was focusing on her talking and the road. It slipped my mind. Sorry bro." Pete just groaned and hugged him too saying,

"Go home Pat. Get some sleep. Brandie get your ass inside now." I smiled and hugged Patrick before racing into the kitchen.

I grabbed a can of Pepsi from the fridge and Ashlee walked in. I smiled and she glared at me growling,

"Stay away from Pete. He's mine. And I know you got a scholarship to the Olympic Academy. And since I'm going to be your legal guardian soon I'm signing you to go. So that way you'll be out of me hair. Little bitch." Okay what's her problem.

I nodded saying, "Don't worry. I'll stay away from Pete. I have a boyfriend and he's like an older brother to me. I was going to go to the academy. I'll leave the day after the wedding. Then I'll be out of your hair for good."

She nodded and walked over saying, "One more thing. Your neck less belongs to me." I looked at her and she ripped the neck less Pete gave me. I looked at her with wide eyes and she shoved it in her pocket. Pete walked in and started to hug me but I ducked out of his arms. I refused to meet his eyes as I said,

"Night." I raced upstairs and shut my door. I leaned against it and locked it. I took a deep breath before walking over to the red chalk. I turned the light on and started writing down lyrics.

Pete's pov

What just happened? I tried to hug Brandie and she ran away. I sighed and ran a hand through my hair. I wasn't tired. Which was a first since I've met Brandie. I can sleep so easy when she's here. My insomnia seemed to disappeared. But when she's gone it comes back. I sighed and Ashlee appeared and kissed me before saying,

"Babe let's go to bed I'm tired." I nodded and followed her upstairs. I heard Brandie moving around in her room and the light seeped from under her door. I heard her humming an unfamiliar tune and scribbling things on her chalk boards. I smiled and walked into my room. I changed into sweats and Ashlee was in one of my tee shirts and booty shorts. She climbed under the covers and fell asleep instantly. I sat down at my desk and started writing lyrics.

---------------------------------

I woke up hunched over my desk. Wow I guess I fell asleep. Ashlee wasn't in bed and I heard her in the kitchen. I messed with my hair before I walked downstairs. I heard Brandie playing bass in the living room. I walked in and saw she had ear buds in. I walked into the kitchen and kissed Ashlee and she smiled,

"Morning babe."

"Morning. How long has Brand been in the living room?" I asked.

She shrugged saying, "When I got up and came down here at 5 she was were she is now writing down lyrics and playing her bass." I nodded and walked into the living room as the door bell rang. I sighed and walked to get it. I opened the door and Pete, Andy, and Joe stood there. I let them in and they walked into the living room. Brandie was gone. I heard her walking upstairs and a few minutes later I heard her fall. I raced over and saw her sitting at the end of the steps holding her head. I went to help her up but she moved away saying,

"I'm fine. Go hurry and plan your wedding with Ashlee. I wanna be here for it."

"What do you mean be here for it?" I asked.

She shook her head and replied bitterly, "Ask your fiance or Patrick." She walked back to her room and I walked into the living and asked,

"Patrick what did Brandie mean when she said she wants to be here for my wedding so I need to hurry up and plan it? What's going on is she okay?"

Patrick looked down and nodded saying, "Uh yeah she is. It's just. She ummm got a scholarship to the Olympic Academy in Alabama. Last night she told me about it. She said she was gonna stay. I told her to follow her heart. And choose what's gonna give her the best time of her life. She said then she wouldn't be leaving anytime soon. If she goes then she's gonna be on the girls soccer team in the summer Olympics next year. I guess she changed her mind." What? She's leaving? Does she not like it here? I opened my mouth to say something but Brandie appeared in jeans and a gray v neck and I asked,

"Where you going?"

She shrugged before saying, "I have no idea. I guess I should practice. So I'll be ready for the Olympics." Ashlee pulled Brandie into the kitchen and a few minutes later Brandie raced out of the house. I ran into the kitchen where Ashlee looked pissed and Patrick followed Brandie.
