Song: I Think I'm In Love by Kat Dahlia

Author's Note/Announcement: Hello, everyone! I hope you are all well! Recently, I have been getting a lot of comments/reviews that I should do a part two for my prompt 'A Drop In The Ocean', so I have decided that after this month, of my everyday postings, I will spend some of January doing part twos for some of my prompts. I really appreciate everyone's support and love for this story it means so much to me. If you all would like to go ahead and start commenting on which stories you would like a part two to, that would be awesome! Thanks again!

Time's a ticking hearts are running

Think that Cupid's up to something

You ask me how I feel I say nothing

But lately colors seems so bright

And the stars light up the night

My feet they feel so light

I'm ignoring all the signs

And know just how tug 'em

Brett sleepily smiled as she felt a warm hand creep up around her waist, "Good morning."

Casey laughed beside her before he leaned down and kissed her on the lips, "Good morning to you as well. How did you sleep?"

Brett rolled over so she was facing Casey, "hmmm...not very well, you see there was this very charming and sexy man keeping me up all night."

"Oh, really? " Asked Casey as he pretended to be shocked.

Brett laughed, "Yes, really."

Casey was about to respond with a smart comeback but he was interrupted by Brett's phone alarm blaring her wake up song, 'Stronger' by Kelly Clarkson.

Brett reached over and turned off her alarm, "We need to get to work."

"We do, but we could sleep in a little longer every day if you didn't insist on getting there way before me so that no one knows there's anything between us. "

Brett guiltily looked at Casey before she rolled out of bed, "I know, I'm just not a hundred percent ready to tell everyone yet."

"Why not?"

Brett sighed, "Casey, it's just easier if we keep it a secret right now because then everyone's going to ask questions and assume things about us."

"Brett..." Whispered Casey before he came to sit next to her on the bed, "You know I don't care about anything anybody says about my self or us because I know the truth and so do you."

"I know. " Replied Brett as she grabbed Casey's hand and brought it to her lips, "I just...I guess I'm afraid to tell everyone. I just need a little more time."

Casey nodded as he completely understood what she was saying, "I understand."

"Thank you." Whispered Brett before she leaned in and gave Casey a kiss on the lips.

My heart's pacing

I'm confused I'm dazing

I saw something I never seen in you it's got me shaking

I must be hallucinating

I hear it happens, I'm just saying

Babe I'm just saying

Someone give me some paper

Someone give me some crayons

I'm feeling like a child

I need something to play on

I'm trying hard to trust you

When you say give me your hand

Baby I'm falling

I hope you catch me when I land

Exactly two and a half hours later, both Brett and Casey were in the kitchen at firehouse fifty-one having breakfast with everyone, including Chief Boden.

"Hey, Brett you know that cute guy I was telling you about from my class I teach on the weekends?" Asked Foster as she continued to steal Gallos French toast sticks off his plate.

Brett looked up at her friend and smiled, "Yeah, what about him? I thought you told me he seemed like he had a wife or husband?"

Foster laughed, "Well, it turns out I was wrong and he's single and into the ladies. Do you want me to give him your number?"

Brett immediately threw her head up and met Casey's eyes, "Umm...actually I think I'm good right now."

Foster and Kidd both turned and looked at each other with big, confused eyes before Kidd finally asked, "What do you mean you're good? You were just saying not too long ago how you wished you had a man in your life to take care of you."

Brett started to feel really nervous, "Well...I actually already met someone."

Kidd and Foster both loudly gasped before they both asked "Who?" "When?"

"I've actually known him for a while now." Mumbled Brett as she started praying that the bell would go off and they would be called out.

"Well, what's his name?" Impatiently asked Kidd.

Brett nearly fainted at hearing her ask this, "Ughh...You know I'm not really ready to let the outside world in yet. I just need a little more time."

Kidd and Foster continued to hound Brett for the next thirty minutes before Foster finally finished in saying, "As long as you're happy, Brett. But...do you see it actually going somewhere with him?"

Brett smiled at Casey before she turned and looked at the girls, "Yeah...I think I'm in love."

I think I'm in love

I think I'm in love again

In my head yea you're in my head

Baby I think I'm in love again

I think I'm in love again

In my head yea you're in my head

I didn't think it could be true

Let alone that it would be you

I think I'm in love again

I'm in love I'm in love I'm in love
