Temporary Love (GirlxGirl)

Chapter 6

Brandy

It was another work night. Making appointments and returning missed calls. I was just about done when my girl Allison walked in. I knew she needed to talk. She had that look.

"What's up sis. How are you feeling?" Allison asked as she sat next to me on the couch.

"I'm good. What's up?"

"So I have to run something by you real quick." I put down my laptop and gave her my attention. "So Craigs brother has nowhere to stay..." When she paused I said.

"Okay?" Wanting her to continue while I wondered where this was going.

"And, I told him it was cool to crash here for a bit." With raised brows I said.

"This is your house sis. If you feel it's cool for him to stay here then I have no choice but to accept that."

"I know, but I just wanted to run that by you. Us women, we gotta be safe ya know."

"I know girl. But I'm cool with it. I mean as long as he doesn't cross the line with me."

"Craig already talked to him about that. He knows to be respectful."

"Okay cool. Anything else you wanted to talk about?"

"There is actually."

"What's up?"

"You and your friend. How is everything going with that?" I tried to fight the blush that came to my face but failed.

"Everything is cool. Why you ask?"

"Maybe you should invite her to my birthday party next month."

"Maybe. I'll think about."

"I thought you two was cool?"

"We are for now."

"For now?"

"I mean it's like a love hate thing?"

"I'm not following." Allison said confused.

"One minute we all over each other and the next we not talking."

"Why?" I hunched my shoulders. "I know it's because of you... "

"Me?" I asked suprised.

"Un huh." Allison said as she nodded her head. "Yeah you. I bet she wants you, you're just being difficult with her."

"Nope your wrong. She doesn't want to be with me."

"But you still sleep with her." She stated matter factly. I hunched my shoulders.

"What can I say. I can't resist her." Allison smiled.

"Invite her."

"Why?"

"I want to meet the woman that got you all out of wack. I never thought I would see the day where Brandy herself would let someone grab a hold of her."

"Hold up. I'm not in love with her." I quickly defended.

"Yeah okay." She said not believing me.

"I'm not in love with her Al. Besides she's only here for a few months."

"That doesn't mean anything. Your heart doesn't know time. Brandy is in love..." She sang.

"I am not!"

"Brandy is in love..."She continued.

"No I'm not. That's not funny Allison."

"What's so wrong about that?"
