Bryan's Pov

As I get outside the room I heard the door shut and locked. I meant what i said, I'm not gonna peek. I'm 14 for Pete sake. I went downstairs to cook her something. Question is what?

"Now what to cook?" I said. I know I will cook her my award winning speghetti Carbonara. Yeah, that's right...award winning. I got the ingredients needed for this recipe then I started cooking.

After a while...

I had done finished cooking. Looks like Mom will not have to cook tonight. I put Sophie's portion in the bowl and my portion in my bowl and put the bowl on the food tray and bring the food tray upstairs to eat with her. I don't like eating alone. Not one bit. I knocked the door. "Sophie? Have you done taking your shower?" I said. The door unlocked and opened. I saw Sophie wearing the red dress that I bought. Wow!! She looked beautiful. The dress really matched her eyes. "Pretty..." I said in lovestruck. "What did you say?" She said. I was shocked that I jumped a little. "N-nothing!" I said nervously. I hope that she didn't heard that I said to her that she was pretty. I went inside. Then I put the tray on the table.

I took Sophie's bowl and gave it to her. "Here you go." I said. "Thanks." She said. I took my bowl and sat next to her. She started to eat. She looked surprised. "Wow!!! That's delicious!!" She said. "Thanks!! It was an award winning recipe anyway." I said. "You have been in the cooking competition?" She said. She looked surprised. My god, it's not that big. But she make it as a big thing. "Well back in my old town, I was a cooking champ." I said. "Wow!!! Good for you." She said. "Thanks, maybe I can train you to cook?" I said. "Yeah...I wish..." She said, daydreaming. Then she continued eating. "Well since you're here, can I ask you something?" I said. "Yes?" She said.

"Well...who is your parents?" I said. I know. It's harsh. But I have to know. I looked at her. She smiled at me. "Well....let's just say that they throw me out when I was seven." She said. I can tell that she was sad. Then she looked down. I can see tears dripped on the bowl. I sat came closer to her and wrapped her in my arms. "It's ok. They don't know that they will have a very beautiful daughter." I said. Wait did I call her beautiful? Me and my mouth. Saying without thinking. But it's true, she is beautiful. "Do you think that I'm beautiful?" She said, blushing. "Y-yes. I-i do think that you're b-beautiful." I said. She grabbed my hand and put it on her face. Rubbing her tears with my hand. I blushed as she did that and I can feel my hand warm.

She looked at me. "Woah! Your hand is warm. You ok?" She said. "Yes, i-i-im ok." I said. "Your hand is warm....just like a jacket during winter." She said. While still holding my hand she put my hand on her cheeks. I can feel her cheeks. It was all soft. Then something came up in my mind. "One day you'll know me."

Wait could it be her? "Just do what I told you to do." What is going on...my mind filled with realisation. The dream...but still the clues are all hitting on her.

I rubbed her cheeks. What? She let me touch it. I can feel her cheeks were getting warm, her cheeks getting red. I looked at her. I can feel something weird inside me. The same feeling as my dream. What is going on?

Then I heard the car parked. "It must be them." I said. "Who?" She said. "My parents." I said, excitedly. "Stay here ok?" I said. She nodded. Then I ran downstairs. The door opened. "Hello son! How was your day?" Said Father. "Good!" I said. "Father....she is upstairs." I said. "Who?" He said. "The girl." I said. My father went out of the house to get my Mom. Then we head upstairs.

"She is very shy." I said. "Ok." Said Father. I opened the door. "Surprise!!!!" I said. She stood up. Then they ran to her hugging her. She looked shocked and confused. "Bryan, what is the meaning of this?" She said. "Well this is your present. From now on you'll be living with us." I said. She looked shocked...
