I led Coop up to my room and closed the door so that we could talk. He looked at me sideways as I rolled my eyes.

"Relax, I'm not going to do anything," I told Coop as I sat down on the bed. He walked over and joined me. "I only want to talk."

"Then, talk," Coop said.

"Okay, I'm bi-sexual," I admitted.

"Yeah, and I'm gay. What's your point?" Coop asked as he arched an eyebrow.

I looked at him and shook my head. "The truth is you're the first guy I've been attracted to," I confessed as Coop looked at me strangely.

"Then how do you know your bi?" He asked.

"Because I like girls, too," I sighed.

"I'm not a science experiment, am I? Because if so, I'll put my fist in your mouth," he threatened me.

I looked at him weirdly. "Do you always resort to violence?" I questioned him.

"I'm a Bennett and a Harrison. It's in my genes," he shrugged.

"Well, okay, then. No, you're not some stupid science experiment, and I do like you. I know you're worried about the fall, but we have plenty of time to figure it out if you want to," I reasoned as he looked at me.

It was hard to figure out Coop. Girls were easier to figure out than he is. He rubbed his jaw, then he said, "Okay, but shouldn't we start with a date?"

I looked at him as he smirked at me, then I smiled. I pulled him to me as I kissed him. I did like the way he kissed.

Andi

Brandon and I celebrated Valentine's Day eating pizza and watching movies. My parents went out on a date, which I thought was romantic that they still did that. Coop was somewhere else. I hadn't seen him since school.

We cuddled on the couch and proceeded to make out. So much for watching a movie, we were too busy using our lips. Things got heated between us, and we managed to stop. It was hard in so many ways, especially for Brandon.

We sat up with our hair a mess and our clothes messed up.

"Okay, that was, uh," Brandon started to say.

"Intense?" I asked as he looked at me.

"Very," he said as I looked at him sheepishly. "Andi, I want to be able to do that with you, but I know sex is a big deal. Dad would cheer me on, and Mom would lecture me about being the responsibility of it all."

"Your parents are confusing," I told him.

"Tell me about it," he signed.

"My mom would tell me the good, the bad, and the hysterical while my dad would think of ways to hurt you," I informed him.

"That's not disturbing whatsoever," Brandon mentioned.

"Yeah, they're disturbed individuals," I remarked, causing him to laugh.

Brandon looked at me. "Andi, I want our first time to be special, and I want us to share it."

"I agree," I told him as he smiled at me.

The one thing I knew about Brandon is he cares about me and loves me in a way I needed love. He wasn't only my boyfriend, but my best friend.

Brandon

After Valentine's Day, I thought about what Andi and I talked about that evening. I called Casey over and speak to him about it. I figure if anyone could give me perspective, it was him.

I told him everything, and he sat on my bed and looked at me as I paced my room.

"So, what you're saying is you're horny and want to have sex with Andi?" Casey asked me as I stopped and looked at him.

"That's not romantic," I told him with a look.

"Well, neither is your first time," he replied as I rolled my eyes.

"How would you know? You're still a virgin," I said.

"It's a known fact. Dude, I don't have to have sex to know it's always awkward the first time. Let's not forget if you don't know how to put on a condom, then it's game over and hello, daddy," he said with a look.

I arched an eyebrow at him.

"I'm sure Andrew will string you by your nuts if you get Andi pregnant," he remarked as I moved my hands to my boys.

"That's disturbing," I told him.

"So is this conversation, but if I have to suffer, then so do you," Casey retorted.

"Come on, Casey, I need help with this," I told him, getting annoyed.

"Brandon, no one says you have to have sex to love someone. It's part of it, but not all of it. People worry too much about sex," Casey reasoned as I looked at him.

"You seem okay about all of this," I said.

"Because I'm not in a rush," he shrugged as I looked at him.

"I'm not in a rush, but things are getting intense with Andi," I explained as he gave me a look. "I can't help it. Every time we're together, we can barely stop." I sighed.

"Because Brandon Jr is ready to go. Use the head on your shoulders and not the other head," he retorted as I gave him a weird look.

I had a feeling that was easier said than done. Casey eventually left, and I decided to talk to Dad. I explained to him about things, and he sat there with a surprised look on his face.

When I finished, I sat down next to him. "Well, What do you think?"

"Well, uh, I think," dad stammered, trying to figure out words.

"Dad, this isn't helping," I reasoned.

"Bran, it's difficult to advise your kid on sex. Hell, your mom had to take the lead with us," Dad said.

"Uh, ew," I replied. Dad shrugged. I looked at him and sighed.

"Brandon, all I can say is be careful and don't let Andrew or Mack know," he advised me.

Well, shit, I forgot about Mack.

"Maybe I should take cold showers," I reasoned as Dad gave me a sympathetic look. I love Andi, but I wasn't ready to die anytime soon. I can see it now at my funeral, here lies Brandon Miller. He was a nice guy until he deflowered Andi Harrison and her father and grandfather found out.

Mom would say I looked cute in my suit while Dad would say I look peaceful. Casey would say he told me so as others would add their two cents. Yeah, sex can wait. I hope.
