~*Back in AJ's room*~ AJ was still holding onto Lissa as if for dear life. He looked keep in her eyes and saw her pain. He gently lent down and kissed her cheek. Lissa soon looked up at him and she let everything go. She had this burning desire to be with him and with everything that was going on she finally let her passion take over. They shared the most passionate kiss that two people could share. And with it they both started to cry but that didn't stop them. He led her over to his bed and they started to undress each other. AJ had yearned to be with Lissa since he first met her. He ravished her body with hungry kisses. She had not felt so much passion come over her in her whole life.
"Are you sure this is what you want?" AJ asked just before he entered Lissa's body.
"More than anything in the world." Lissa moaned as she grabbed ahold of AJ's body.
After they made love AJ just laid there holding Lissa.
"I Love You Melissa." AJ said just before he fell asleep.
Lissa laid there thinking about what had happened and about what AJ had said. That confused her even more. When she knew he was asleep she quietly got dressed and slipped out of the room. But not before she left AJ a note saying that she had to go home but to call her after dinner.
~*Back at the girls house*~
When Lissa got home she found Em in the living room smiling from ear to ear.
"Em, I need to talk to you!" Lissa said as she cane in the living room.
"I have some news too, but you go first..." Em said Emily saw Lissa's face and immediately became concerned.
"What is it? What happened?" Em asked growing more concerned by the minute.
"AJ...AJ and I..." Lissa started to say as she burst into tears.
Emily ran to her bestfriend and hugged her.
"What did he do? Did he hurt you?" Em said as she started to get mad.
"No, it's not that" Lissa said
"AJ and i made love and he told me that he loved me." Lissa explained
"You what?!" Em exclaimed "What about Jeff?" Em questioned
"I know, I know. I am so confused." Lissa said
"It's okay. Don't worry we will figure this out." Em said trying to console her bestfriend.
"What am I gonna do?" Lissa asked
"Do you love him?" Em asked
"I don't know" Lissa said
"Do you love Jeff?" Em asked
"Well, yeah I'll always love him." Lissa said
"No are you in love with him?"
"I don't know who I love?" Lissa said
"Do you?" Lissa asked Em
"Yes, I Love Brian. Oh My God! I said it." Em said surprising herself.
"In fact that's my news. Brian and I are together now." Em said beaming from ear to ear again.
"That's great. I'm happy for you." Lissa said
"Lissa... I think that you should give Jeff a fair chance too." Em said
Just then the phone rang.
"I'll get it" Lissa said trying to avoid the subject.
"Hello?"
"Hi is Em there?" a nervous voice said.
"May I ask who's calling?" Lissa asked
"Lissa, it's me Drew."
"Oh hey! Sorry it's been a long morning."
"Yeah, how are you doing?" Drew asked
"Okay. Listen can you do me a favor, could you tell Jeff to call me."
"Well he's here do you want me to get him for you?" Drew asked
"No nevermind, I'll be right over. Here's Em." Lissa said as she passed the phone to Em and walked out the door.
Lissa knew Em was right. She had to give Jeff a chance. She owed him that much. She had to find out for herself if there was anything there between them. So far with AJ it was a physical thing that was growing. But she already knew all that there was to know about Jeff. He was her best friend. Could there be more between them?
