                          Vincent's POV

"Are you guys... like, back together?" Sam asked, a little unsure. 

It was Monday morning. School was still in session but there was only a week and a half until break started. I could not wait for it, even if we did have exams right after. I still was impatient for the two weeks I got to spend with Brody. 

Just us, and maybe some of our other friends. Ever since that whole situation, I didn't ever want to let him go. I had already got a little glimpse of what life was without him and let's just say it was horrible, never would I want to go through that again. 

It was lunch at the moment, and everyone had been starring at us weirdly for the last 10 minutes. Brody was finally sitting at the table again, right next to me. We had all been silent, up until Sam finally spoke. I was glad for that, the silence was starting to get eerie and uncomfortable. 

I had no doubt every other person at this table wanted to ask the same question, but did not want to be the one to ask in case we weren't. That would make things much more awkward. 

I smiled at her and lifted up mine and Brody's entwined hand from under the table. "What do you think?" 

It looked like they all breathed a sigh of relief by the news and it made me laugh. Me too guys, me too. 

I leaned over and kissed Brody, just because I can and he blushed like crazy. "Even cuter then before," Meagan murmured. "Did you use the stuff we gave you Brody?" This caused Sam to giggle. 

Brody blushed ten different shades of red but didn't answer them. He felt bad about denying me right after I asked him the other day. He told me it wasn't because he didn't want to, neither because he wasn't ready. It was because the timing wasn't right. 

He said we had just got back into the relationship and it was too soon. When he was comfortable with the relationship again, then he would let me know but sex at this time was a no. 

"Oh my god! Did you guys--?" I put my hand over Meagan's mouth to keep her from going on even further. She had gained the attention of other every person at the table and they gave us weird looks. I didn't want her to bring up the subject because it made Brody depressed a little and a sad Brody makes for a sad Vincent. 

Vincent doesn't do sad. Unless, oh I don't know, his boyfriend breaks up with him. 

"Shut up," I hissed at her. "We didn't do use them." 

Meagan glared at me. She removed, or should I say shoved, my hand from her mouth and I sat back down. "And why is that?" She asked. 

"That's none of your business. This is my relationship, not yours," I ventured. Meagan gets a little scary when someone talks back to her, or talks to her in a cold voice. I was entering dangerous territory here but it really wasn't any of her business. 

"It's okay," Brody spoke for the first time. "I was the one who told him no." 

Meagan turned her glare to Brody and suddenly I feared for him. He just starred back at Meagan with a blank face, but it crumbled when he saw the look in her eye. Yeah, he should be scared. My sister isn't a force to be reckoned with. 

"Brody, let's go. We need to have a girl talk," she said getting up from her seat. 

"I'm a boy," he grumbled and got up from his seat. 

"Can I come?" I asked, feeling left out. 

"No," they both said at the same time. Meagan a little meaner then Brody but still not the answer I was looking for. 

"Fine, I didn't want to come anyway," I huffed and crossed my arms over my chest. Who needs them anyways? Not me. Okay, I need Brody but I could make do without that nosy sister of mine. 

Brody kissed me then pulled away. "I'll be back in a few." With that he started to trail behind Meagan for their "girl talk". I am really curious about what they were going to talk about but eavesdropping would be so wrong. I did not want to give Brody another reason to be mad at me so I left them be. 

I wasn't really in the mood to talk with anyone at the table, mainly because they would talk about things that no longer mattered to me. Everything was different ever since I met Brody; I was different. 

Things had been so different since last year and it's only been like, I don't know, 3-4 months since school started. My life has been something of a roller coaster ride; there was the ups and downs, the plot twists, and the unexpected turns. Whether it was a fun ride or a frightening ride, I didn't know. 

I rarely talked with the other students in school, my grades have been doing much better- well, before Brody and I got into that little fight-, and lacrosse was just a past time these days. Don't get me wrong, lacrosse was still my life, but now, other things seemed a little more important. Like Collage, or University. 

What would I be doing after high school? Surely becoming a professional lacrosse player was my dream, now though, I wasn't so sure. It was weird, one day I loved lacrosse , and it was the only thing that got me up in the morning but now I just relieved the season was over so I could have time to do more important things. 

At the same time I do not think it'll be easy to just stop playing completely, it was all I knew since started high school. I can't just drop it like that. 

Was even possible for me to become a famous lacrosse player? I knew I was good, but that good? No. I needed more options for myself. I couldn't set my life on a "what if" situation. 

What did Brody even want to do with his life? With his brains he could be whatever he wanted, go anywhere he wanted.

I hadn't thought about it but we only have a few months until summer, and then off to university. We would be graduating this year, and who knew, Brody might want to go to some school like Princeton. I could never get into a school like that, no matter who good my grades were getting. 

What if he did go to a school like that? He would be so far from me and that thought didn't sit so well with me. Knowing Brody, though, he would give up a chance like that to stay with me. I don't mean that in a cocky way or anything, but he loves me and I him. We couldn't just end a relationship just like that. 

I guess.... 

I don't know, I will talk to him about this another time. A time when all the drama is finished, when he regains all the trust with me again, when break is over. Right now I should focus on other things, like the Katrina situation. 

One thing at a time. 

I knew what I had to do with the Katrina situation but I didn't know how to go at it. This morning, I woke up determined to talk to Katrina's brother and demanded to know what the hell she was up to. I knew it would not be easy, but Katrina would never tell the truth. 

I had to find him later today, and find the perfect time to talk to him. He was in the same grade as Meagan, maybe she knew of him. I should ask her...

"What's wrong?" Brody asked. I jumped back, startled by his presence. When did he even get here? 

Once my racing heart calmed down I looked at him and smiled. "Nothing, I'm fine" I assured. 

He looked skeptical. "You're not, but I'll let it slide this time." 

I breathed a sigh of relief and mentally thanked him for dropping the matter. My previous thoughts were simply depressing and I didn't want to upset him with them. 

"So... What did you and Meagan talk about?" I asked, trying to make it seem nonchalant. Like, I did not give a shit what they talked about, but really, I was dying to know. 

"Wouldn't you like to know," he smirked. 

"Yeah, I would actually. Come on," I begged, adding my best puppy dog look. 

He laughed, genuinely. Brody never did that today. He seemed a little out if it today and I tried everything to make him happy again, like on Saturday, but nothing. I was happy he smiled, even if it was at the ridiculous face I was pulling. 

"I'll make you a fair deal, you tell me what you were thinking about and I will tell you what Meagan and I spoke about," he offered. My face dropped. 

"You said you would drop it," I whined. 

He shrugged and waited from me to speak. I honestly didn't want to tell him, it would make things much more complicated, but I could always tell him half the truth. That's not really lying is it? I doubt it. I was finished with lying to the people I cared about, it sucked and I just wanted to put an end to it.

"Fine," I caved. "I was thinking about talking to Katrina's brother later today." 

I was anticipating what he was going to say next but he looked at me and smiled. "That's good. When? I want to come with you," he said. 

"It is?" I asked, unsure. What? Is he messing with me? If I were him I wouldn't want him associating with anyone one in that family. Although, I couldn't really blame him for wanted to come with me. 

"Mhm, why would it not be? We need to get this whole mess sorted so we can move on, completely," he said. 

I really did have the most understanding boyfriend. Leaning forward, I kissed him again. I don't know why, but I always felt compelled to do so. It was just my way of letting him know I loved him, but without words. 

"What was that for?" He asked, when I pulled away. 

"Because you're so understanding and I love you," I said. 

He smiled and a squeal that came from my sister and Sam. "You used the L word! It's about time," Sam said. 

I shook my head at the two and ignored that they were even there, turning my attention back to Brody. "Anyways, I wanted to talk to him before school ended today," I told him. 

"I love you too," he blurted, then covered his mouth with the palm of his hand. "Sorry, but like, I kind of forgot to reply," he shied away. 

I let out a hearty laugh and kissed him again. I will never get over how cute he is. 

"Changing the subject; but how do expect to find him by then? This school is kind of huge," he said. 

"Meagan," I called to her. She turned to me with questioning eyes. 

"What?" She asked. 

"Do you have a Flores in one of your classes, he's Katrina's brother and I want to speak with him," I explained. 

"Hm, there is this one guy. He's cute but very quite. He's in my Geography class, I could tell him you want to speak with him?" 

I shook my head. I could not let her do that, he might try and run if he found out I was looking for him. "What period do you have that class? And with what teacher?" I asked. 

"It's the last class of the day, and it's with Mr. Zimmer." 

"Thanks," I told her. 

This was perfect, I could run to that class before the bell rang, wait for him outside of it and he wouldn't have some sorry excuse like how he was late for class because it was last period. He would talk, whether he liked it or not. 

Hey, I could become a cop. That would be a pretty sexy occupation, and Brody might like a man in uniform. 

Hm..
