Never Judge a Book By Its Cover
Chapter 11

I walked slowly up to his front door, trying to keep myself calm and relaxed. I rang the door bell and about 3 seconds later Brian answered the door.
"Hey! Come on in!" he said moving to let me through.
"Wow! You look....great!" he said looking at my outfit.
"Thanks," I said blushing. "Oh yeah, I picked up some bagles on my way over in case anyone was hungry," I said handing him the white paper bag I had in my hand. He took it and looked inside.
"Yummy! I never have food at my house! Thank you!" he said and kissed me lightly on the cheek then turned and walked into the kitchen. He placed the bag on the counter then came back out. "Where's my morning kiss?" he asked putting his arms on my waist.
"I don't know...where'd you leave it?" I said sticking my tongue out at him. He folded his arms over his chest and pretended to pout. "Oh fine!" He smiled and put his arms back around me as I leaned up and kissed him. When we pulled away he smiled at me again then took my hand and led me into the living room. He sat down then pulled me on the couch next to him and started kissing me again.
"Don't you think its a little early for all that?" asked Kevin stretching in the hallway as he walked towards us. Brian and I looked at each other and started laughing.
"It's never to early, cuz!!" said Brian smiling.
"Whatever!" he said walking into the kitchen and looking into the white bag that I had brought with me.
"Cool bagles! Where'd you get these from? We never have food here!"
"Kaitlyn brought 'em!"
"Well thanks Kaitlyn! I can't get over the fact that we actually have food! These'll be gone by the time AJ wakes up!"
"Thats great there Kev!" said Brian standing up, he reached out his hand for mine. I smiled at him and slipped my hand into his.
"Why do i get the feeling you two are blowing me off?" asked Kevin from the kitchen.
"Cause we are! See ya!" said Brian as we walked down the hall and into his room.
"So...what do you want to do today?" I asked as I sat down on his bed.
"I don't know! We could just stay here and hang out if ya want to..."
"Alright! That sounds cool to me!" I said laying down on his bed. He came and sat next to me and pulled me back up next to him. "What? Do I have something in my teeth or something? Why are you staring at me?" I said giggling.
"Oh I'm sorry. I was just thinking..."
"Oh...okay."
"Can I ask you something?"
"Sure! Go ahead!"
"Okay...how do you feel about me?"
I shifted nervously on the edge of his bed. "I like you a lot. I mean a whole lot, even though I don't know you very well, I still feel like I've known you for a long, long time." I looked at him and smiled.
"Why Brian? How do you feel about me?"
"I really think I'm falling in love with you." I almost fell off the bed, but instead I just sat there and stared at him with my mouth hanging open.
"Hey...you okay?" he asked waving his hand in front of my face.
"I, uh..."
"I knew I shouldn't have said anything," he said shaking his head.
"No! I'm glad you did! No one has ver said anything like that to me before in my life! It just sort of shocked me that you were the one to say it!" I said taking his hand. "And by the way...I know how you feel." He turned to me and smiled.
"Really?" he asked.
"Yes really." He smiled with delight and started kissing me again. I kissed him back. Somehow we ended up laying down and things started to go a little faster. We were still making out when I felt his hand start to go up my shirt. Even though I really didn't want to, I pushed his hand from under my shirt and sat up.
"What's wrong?" he asked looking confused.
"I'm sorry, Brian...I just got nervous," I said resting my head in my hands.
"No, you don't have to be sorry. We'll just take it slow, okay?" he said rubbing my back. I nodded silently.
"You don't hate me, do you?"
"Hate you? Of course I don't hate you! Why would you think that?"
"I don't know..."
"Hmm...well don't think that anymore! Okay?"
"Yeah!"
"Good! Now let's watch some T.V." he said grabbing the remote from his nightstand and laying back down. I laid down next him and snuggled up to him with his arm around me. Not to long after, I was alsleep.

***1 hour later***

"Hey, hey, HEY!!!!" someone yelled shaking me.
"WHAT?" I yelled back. I had been trying to ignore the person for about 5 minutes now. I opened my eyes and saw Nick standing above me.
"Are you awake?" he asked.
"No, I'm not, Sherlock!"
"Oh, okay...hey wait! You can't talk if your asleep!"
I rolled my eyes. I think the fumes from his blonde hair dye were starting to go to his head.
"You know, blonde is a good color for you," I said laughing. He didn't seem to understand.
"Nevermind...I'll explain later. So what'd you wake me up for? And where the hell am I?" I asked thinking this was all sort of weird. First that Nick was standing over me, second that someone had their arms around me, and third that I had no clue who's bed I was in. I sat up and rubbed my eyes, bringing the room into focus.
"Well, you're at Brian's apartment, in Brian's bed, with Brian."
"Oh!" I said smacking my head. I think Nick was starting to rub off on me. I felt like a complete moron. "So what'd you wake me up for?"
"Oh...where's Erika?"
"My uncle's house."
"Okay thanks!" he said and ran out of the room. 'Where the hell did he think she was? Crammed up my butt? Why didn't he just call her?' I wondered. He was quite dense, but in that funny sort of way. I rolled my eyes and laid back down in Brian's arms. He moved a little, then his eyes fluttered open.
"Hey," he said in a sleepy voice.
"Hey! How'd ya sleep?"
"Wonderfully," he said kissing me softly on the lips.
"Me too..."
"Good! So what do you want to do?"
"How about we-"
"Hey guys!" said AJ as he walked into the room with Jenn. They both flopped down on the bed by our feet.
"Hi AJ..." said Brian. He was obviously a little annoyed. "What do you want?"
"Are we interupting something? Cause we can leave!"
"Nah...we were just talking...it's okay. So what did you want?"
"Oh yeah...we gotta go fix a part in the video. It'll take like 2 hours."
"Right now?"
"Yup. Sorry B-Rok."
"B-Rok?" I asked making a face.
"I'll explain later," said Brian smiling at me. "Okay Bone, I'll be ready in like 2 minutes."
"Bone?" I asked making another face.
"I'll explain later!" repeated Brian, kissing me before he stood up and walked to his closet and pulling out a pair of shoes. He pulled them over his feet and grabbed his hat, then came and sat next to me on the bed. "You can stay here with Erika if you want to. This shouldn't take long," he whispered in my ear.
"Alright. I'll miss you."
"Miss you too. See ya!" he said kissing me again.
"Bye," I said as he got up and walked out of the room with AJ and Jenn. I flopped back on his bed and looked up at the ceiling.
