Three months went by. Nick and Willa were still together. Brizee
shared a bus with Brian. They have grown closer. Brian and Brizee were wrestling. Brian pinned her down and smiled at her.
Okay, you won, Brizee said.
I always do, Brian said.
Yup, Brizee said. He looked at her.
Briz, Brian said. He looked at her lips and back at her eyes.
You want to kiss me, Brizee said.
Yeah, Brian said.
I want you to kiss me, Brizee said. He smiled and leaned down and kissed her softly. He pulled back and looked at her.
She looked at him and smiled. He smiled and they kissed again.
Brizee, Brian said.
I want you, Brian, Brizee said.
Are you sure, Brian said.
Yes, please, Brian, make love to me, Brizee said. He got up and pulled her up and picked her up and carried her back
to the bed and closed the door and locked it and she pulled off his shirt and he pulled off her clothes and the rest of his
clothes and they laid on the bed and he made love to her. Afterwards, they laid there holding each other.
Wow, Brizee said.
Yeah, wow, Brian said.
So, what now, Brizee said.
Briz, I have been in love with you from the first moment I saw you, I want to be with you, Brian said.
Well, you have me, because I have fallen for you, Brizee said. Brian smiled.
I will never hurt you, Brian said.
I know, Brizee said. They laid there holding each other.
The buses arrived in the next city and they were dressed and
Brian was kissing her neck as the bus came to a stop. Brizee got off the bus with Brian behind her and they pretended not
to be more than friends. Brizee saw Nick get off his bus and Willa got off behind him. Nick headed for Brizee.
Briz, we have to talk, Nick said taking her hand and pulling her into the hotel and up to his room. They went in. He
closed the door and sat down.
What is it, Brizee said.
I was lying to myself, Nick said.
What do you mean, Brizee said.
I thought I still loved Willa, but I didnt, I dont have any more feelings for her, so shes going home, Nick said.
I see, Brizee said.
Briz, I love you, and I want to be with you, Nick said.
Oh god, Brizee said turning away.
What, Nick said.
Um, Brian and I, well, we just got together, Brizee said.
Oh, I see, did you two sleep together, Nick said.
Well, yeah, Brizee said.
I cant believe this, Nick said.
Im sorry, Brizee said.
Briz, I just want to be with you, okay, Nick said.
Nick, you and I are still married, okay, and its stuck that way, Brizee said.
Can I kiss you? Nick asked.
Yeah, Brizee said. Nick leaned close and kissed her lips softly. The kiss deepened. Brizee moved closer to Nick and
they ended up on the floor. Clothes flew everywhere and they made love. Afterwards, Brizee sat up. Nick sat up.
I feel so guilty, Brizee said.
You dont have to, Im your husband, Nick said. Brizee got up and got dressed and looked at him. She ran out the door
and ran into Brian and Kevin.
Brizee, whats wrong, Brian said.
I have to talk to you, Brizee said crying. They went to his room and Brian closed the door. Brizee sat down and hugged
her legs and cried softly.
What happened with Nick, Brian said.
He wants me back, he and Willa are no more, hes over her, completely, Brizee said.
Then go back to him, Brian said.
But what about us?! Brizee said.
Briz, you are married to Nick, and you love him, Brian said.
Brian, Brizee said.
Brizee, you know Im right, you want to be with him again, he is over Willa and you two can be together again, you and
I are still best friends, thats all we can be, Brian said.
Im sorry! Brizee said. Brian hugged her.
Hey, you are special to me, okay, you are my best friend, nothing will change that, you will never lose me from your
life, Brian said. Brizee hugged him.
Thank you, Brizee said.
Now go get your man, Brian said. She kissed him and went out the door.
