�Sounds fun.� Brian slapped AJ�s hand and took my chair, pulling me down on his lap. �It is.� AJ checked his watch. �Damn, didn�t know it was that late. I shall leave you two alone, gotta go met up with D.� �Tell him he has to stop by, see the new place, met the new girl.� �You know, does Nick know about you two?� �Nope, Nick has been off doing his own thing. Haven�t gotten a hold of him in a while. Kevin knows though, he likes her, says she�s funny.� �That she is.� �Excuse me, can we please stop talking like I�m not here,� I said, rolling my eyes. �And such a drama queen.� �Oh, fuck you AJ.� �Resa!� �Sorry Brian.� I bite my lip and glared at AJ and at his smile. �Later you two.� �Bye.� I turned to Brian and smiled. �What are you smiling at?� �Just missed you is all.� �Hmm,� he said, taking my hand in his, �I missed you too.� His lips once again found mine. His arms slowly lifted me up and we found somehow found our way to our room. �What�s on your mind?� I glanced up and smiled at AJ. �Well, you actually.� �Me?� �Yes, I was thinking about you and recording, wondering if you were really gonna go for it?� �You gonna help and support me?� �Of course.� �Than, yes, I�ll go for it.� �Great.� I smiled and closed my eyes, going back to getting my sun tan. �You know, what does Brian think of those tattoos you have?� �Um, well, he�s not very happy with them nor with the piercings. But I won�t remove them. I just promised I wouldn�t get anymore, or no more big ones.� �I still can not figure out why you�re with him.� �Because I do love him. He�s one of the best boyfriends I ever had.� AJ just laughed and I smiled. �Why, should I dump him for you?� �Well, since you asked, yes you should.� I glanced at him sharply. Was he serious? Dump Brian for AJ? �It wouldn�t be the first time.� �That someone dumped the good guy for the bad guy?� �What a way to put it.� I just rolled my eyes at him. �So, what are your plans today?� �Sun bathe. I need a freakin� sun tan. This Mexican girl looks like a white girl.� �You�re Mexican?� �Half anyways.� I relaxed once again. �Well, I will let you go. Is Brian gonna be gone tonight?� �Yeah, won�t be back till sometime tomorrow evening actually.� �Business?� �Yeah.� �Wanna have dinner with me tonight?� I looked up at him, covering my eyes from the sun. �I would love too.� �Great, pick you up around six than. Dress nice.� �Yes sir.� He laughed and left me once again alone. �And than, he just stopped singing. We couldn�t help but laugh at him as he forgot the words to the song. He was so embarrassed, but it was so damn funny.� I just couldn�t stop laughing as AJ kept telling me stuff about the guys. �I didn�t know Brian could forget.� �He did. He was more than pissed at us too for laughing and not helping him out. The fans didn�t mind though.� �That�s a good thing too.� I took a sip of wine and just smiled at AJ. Okay, so a fast forming friendship had happened. AJ and I had gotten close. In fact, every time he was around, I could feel little butterflies in my stomach. Now, I was a writer and knew what that feeling meant, but I couldn�t grasp the simple idea. I mean, I loved Brian and yet, I was more than attracted to one of his best friends. It wasn�t a fair game. If only I had met AJ under different circumstances. �You still with me?� �Yeah, just thinking.� �About?� Okay, so up until now, I had not lied to him. Well, maybe I shouldn�t lie. After all, didn�t he make it clear how he felt this afternoon? �You actually.� �Me?� �Yes.� �What about me?� I sighed, a way of buying time and getting the courage. �Can I ask you a question. And I want an honest answer Age.� He just nodded his head and I took a deep breath. �How do you feel about me?� �I think you�re a wonderful friend.� �That�s it?� We locked eyes and somehow, we were both searching for each other hands. �I like you, more than just a friend. Hell, you�re everything I wanted in a lover. Honesty, trustworthy, know how to be serious but yet know to be laid back, just nearly as crazy as I am, smart, and just plain beautiful.� �God, now I know I could not just walk away from him.� His hand cupped my cheek and slowly our heads moved closer, our lips barely touching. �Damn, he can kiss and that was a stupid peck,� my mind screamed at me. The shiver ran down my spine, my head felt dizzy, my heart was pounding and my stomach was doing flip flops, all sure signs I should not be enjoying that. Well, hell, I shouldn�t even be doing that, but damn, it just felt to good to pull away. �Did you just happen to feel that?� �You mean, the never wrecking the kiss? The earth shattering peck?� �Yeah, something to that effect.� �Yes, than I think I did.� �And just what does that mean?� I bite my lip and looked at him. �I don�t know Age.� He grabbed my hand and kissed it. �You can�t tell him?� �I don�t know how to tell him.� I just shook my head, not knowing what I needed to do. |
