My Brothers Best Friend

ch.23: happily ever after's do exist

 just sat there on the floor. nothing to think about. not even brandon. i just wanted to not think about anyone and think about myself. i zoned out for a sec but then someone sat next to me. i turned to see who it was and it was brandon.

"two years ago i met this girl named amaya. she was someone i've never seen before. she was so beautiful, caring, funny, selfless. or so i thought. amaya..is the person you would call "the one." but she never cared about anyone. we were friends. i had a huge crush on her. you could even say i was simping. i've always loved her. but she never loved me back. she told me that she did. that she liked me and all that shit. but none of it was real. because one day she was talking to her friend. she said "brandon and i are doing great. i've really got him fooled. he thinks i love him. aw poor wittle brandon. he's obsessed with me." that was the day when i stopped believing in love and all that shit. she hurt me a lot. but then you changed that. when i met you i didn't think i would start catching feelings. but then we kissed..and i felt myself giving in. that's when i knew i was falling in love with you."

                                                                       ***

"falling in love? with me?" i said playing with my ring.

brandon grabbed my hand and kissed it.

"i know its early in the relationship..but i love you. you make me a better person."

"brandon i-"

"madeline..i want to be with you...only you. not brylinnia, or reina, or anyone else in that matter. you mean everything to me."

i looked at brandon and he actually meant it. his eyes showed it. i didn't know what to say. i do love him he just caught me by surprise. 

"i love you too. even if its early i do. for a while now actually. the day that i met you i thought you were cute. but i knew that i couldn't fall for you because you wouldn't feel the same. why do you think i got into that fight with amanda? just so i could show off how strong i am.

"i saw you as my best friends little sister. i was joking around at first but during that i didn't know why i kept thinking about you. or why i stared at you. its like a part of me wanted to talk to you. but instead i pushed you away. then kevin came into the picture and i didn't want him around. im glad we solved everything that was going on between us. i never wanted that. i told brylinia that i can't see her anymore." brandon said.

"im sorry for being a jealous girlfriend. i shouldn't be like that. i need to trust you from now on. i never want to hurt you the way amaya did. what she did was horrible. you dont deserve that."

brandon leaned in and kissed me. i like that we have these type of conversation where we could tell each other everything we feel for each other and not keep any secrets. he makes me feel loved and safe.

"should we get outta here?" brandon said 

                                                                             ***

brandon drags me out of the school and he gets in his car. 

"you have a car?" i said

"i do now"

i started laughing and went inside quickly since it was pouring.

he stopped in front of my house and gets out of the car. 

"what are you doing?" 

"lets go. i want to show you something"

brandon takes me hand and takes me to my door.

"this is where we kissed on our first date."

i blushed a little.

"i remember. you got mad because i picked a fight with the waiter."

"you pick a fight with everyone princess."

"only if they piss me off."

"this was also when you're brother found out about us. crazy night."

i laughed. 

"ohh yeah. he almost killed you."

"at least i would've done what i've always wanted to do."

"and what is that?"

"this.."

brandon kisses me on the same spot where we kissed on our first date. i felt special. magical...i guess happily ever after's do exist.....
