Brian and i did go out and he asked me to be his girlfriend after we had another amazing date,we visited a carnival.....i seriously was not sure now so i told him id think about it and he invited me and Lia to Drew's party,i hesitated cos i didnt want to encounter him yet but when i called Lia,she d gotten the flu"what should i come over?" "no.mom wont allow anyone see me,its contagious girl..go have fun",she said,i wonder how i was gonna do that alone...............one of the days i went to watch Brian play basketball,though he d joined gymnast and tutoring as part of his purnishment for drinking on school property,i seriously do not know what he was thinking but it was obvious he hadnt gotten over his ex,faintly wondering who she was i got ready for the party,tomorrow night was the meeting with my mom's boyfriend and i didnt think i was ready for it yet......as i sat with Brian who d come to join me during the break,i saw Drew come up to the court to talk to someone....Brian noticed the look passed between us"what now?"he asked"nothing"i shrugged"sth you are not telling me,karen..you can trust me",i bit my lower lip"Drew tried to.rape me...","what.....im so gonna kill him"he got up" Brian..no wait",before i knew it,he d landed a blow on Drew,arguements...but before i got there they were separated by the other guys...Brian stormed away,i went after him but lost him,i came back to Drew...he looked hurt"u ok?" "no.."he glared"and its all your fault" "my fault?....you were the one who didnt want us to date cos you wanted me for yourself" "no i dont want you for myself" "you dont?" "fine..i do...but i want to fuck you,not date you...you are blonde for gods sake thats what you are mearnt for"i gaped"dont look so shocked,im being honest about what i want..and its not because of that i didnt want you to date him but you know what..forget it.."he walked away and it was like id lost something"Drew wait...",he didnt turn,i looked around and the guys were staring and snickering....nice,i went to take my bag and went on home....now i was at his party,hope it went well,the groove really seemed to be going on and the place crowded as usual,i got a drink,knowing this party would be boring without Lia,and i saw Iss and her clique playing spin the bottle and getting drunk over it...Brian suddenly turned me around and kissed me"hey..you look great" "thanks" "glad you came,where's Lia?" "she's down with the flu" "thats bad..come on,this place is crowded",he led me upstairs to his room....his room was extremely well arranged,i thought he never even touched anything"nice"i said touching a picture frame"you are neat" "im not" "then you are an extremist",he laughed and sitting on his bed produced a drink "got this from my uncles" "you stole?" "no..he gave me"at my stare"we pretty close,Drew doesnt get along with his father" "does he get along with anyone.." "yea..his mom,they are best of friends.....quit the gossip"he said with a chuckle but i really wanted to know more about Drew,he opened the wine which pooped and poured in my glass,we drank"so hows the project going" "Drew is an ass,last thing i wanna talk about right now....how is gymnastics" "good,im coping,its been long" "yea,so its helping you get your mind off things",he shrugged"i guess"...a pause"theres sth i wanted to ask you Brian?" "ask on" "tell me abt your former school,why did you leave?" "change of environment,i needed it" "why?" "my dad moved out of the states...i had to move to Drew's" "oh"a tensed silence"did you have a girlfriend over there?",he stared at me for long like he suspected where i was getting on but i managed to keep a straight face"no..why",he got up and moved to his study"just curious....",he sighed"well i had but we broke up"he said,that was not what Drew told me,he looked at me"what did Drew tell you?",had i voiced it out"that she left you..." "Selena didnt leave,i broke up with her" "well why..." "i dont wanna talk about it..."he shouted and i winced...he roved his hair"im sorry..i just" "is that why you ve been drinking?",he looked at me now and i knew he knew what exactly was on my mind"is that why you refused to be my girlfriend...you thought i was on rebound?" "No..." "yes........shit"he scattered the things on the study table...then moved towards me and squatted"karen its not what you think,thats not why ive been drinking,its more complicated than that and no matter what Drew' been telling you...."he began "he didnt tell me anything..really" "then why wont you be my girlfriend.." "because...",he waited"i just cant be with you Brian",he sighed and closed his face with his palms"is it my cousin you like.." "what..." "tell me karen and i ll leave you alone...just tell me and though its painful i wont....",i kissed him,then again,his fingers drove into my hair as he kissed me back to the bed,he trailed over me as we devoured our lips.................................................................~.
