His tall dark silhouette figure approached her car, slowly. She clutched
the bar tighter and awaited his arrival. Ready when he was going to strike.
He reached out his hand to open the car door and...
He pounded on the windows, it was more like her head was pounding. And
she kept hearing her name being called.
"Miss Millano," she heard a female voice call her name.
"Wha? He was and what?" Annie asked a bit dazed from being waken up so
abruptly. She looked out the window of her car and saw the receptionist from
the college. So she rolled her window down.
"Miss Millano, you left your ID card upstairs. Thank goodness I caught
you before you left. Here," she said and handed the card to Annie, "You
should really take better care of your things," the woman lectured before
going back into the building.
Annie squinted her eyes and shook her head, "It was just a dream," she
said to herself.
She then realized that she was still in the car and sighed," Brian's
right, I do need to get some sleep."
She laughed, "I'm not going to tell he was right, though. No, we would
enjoy that too much," she decided then started up the car and headed home.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
She pulled up to her house a little while later and saw a piece of white
paper taped to the door. She got out the car and took the note down, seeing
the handwriting she immediately knew it was Brian's beautiful script.
'Hey Beautiful,
I know you said we weren't supposed to see each other for two weeks, but I
couldn't help myself. I stopped by to give you a surprise, but no one was
home. I really wish I could hold you in my arms right now. Feel your lips on
mine. God, I miss you! Don't be surprised if I can't hold out these two
weeks. I'll try again later, hopefully you'll be home.
Loving you always,
Brian.'
Annie was smiling a mile wide when she finished reading the note. 'Oh
God, I really do love him as much as I thought I did. If not more,' she
thought walking into the house and putting her note on the table.
She went to the kitchen to grab a coke and saw a note on the fridge. She
took it off and read it.
'Hi sweet stuff! I went out to get some Mickey D's. I'm starved and hopefully
I won't get recognized! See Ya when I get back, A.J.
P.S. I knew you would head to the fridge first. You're so greedy!'
She narrowed her eyes, "You'll pay for that remark McLean," she
threatened and laughed putting the note on the counter. She grabbed her coke
and kicked her shoes off before going upstairs. She let out a sigh as she saw
another note taped to her door.
'Another note, joy,' she thought sarcastically and took the paper off her
door and read it.
'Ann~
I heard A.J. leave so this is my chance to get out! YAY! I'm starvin' like
Marvin! Seeing as how you were mean enough to not bring me any food! Well, I
fixed you! A.J. left so I get to go to McDonalds! And I'm not bringing you
back any!
~Lina'
Annie laughed, "That should be interesting," she said before opening her
door. When she walked in her mouth dropped open as she stared wide eyed at
her room.
There were little Hershey's Kisses everywhere. On her floor, her bed, her
desk....everywhere. Her smiled grew wider when she saw a balloon over bed
that read, 'Sweets for my Sweet'.
She rushed over and grabbed her phone, quickly dialing Brian's number.
"Hello?" he answered.
"I love you," she said immediately.
"I guess you got my surprise,"
"You guessed right! And I love it! More importantly I love you! But this
was...so..so....romantic!"
"Well, only the best for you."
"What brought on this sudden urge of romanticness?" she asked popping one
of the chocolates into her mouth.
"That's not a word," he laughed.
"Yes, it is, look it up....in the Dictionary of Annie."
"I just thought your day needed a little more brightening up."
"Aww, that's so nice of you.....You know what? For tonight, to hell with
studying! I just want to be with you! I can't wait two more whole weeks, I
want to see you now."
"Really? You could get alot of studying done-"
"I don't care! I need you here with me. You are the only one who matters,
right now."
"OK, then I'll be over in a minute, Love you."
"Love you too," she said then hung up the phone and sighed dreamily.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
No sooner did Annie hear Brian pulling up to her house, she waited in
anticipation for him to ring the doorbell. So she could have the pleasure of
opening it to see his handsome face.
When she opened the door she was greeted with a rather large bouquet of
flowers. Lilies. They were her favorite.
"Thank you!" she gasped taking the flowers and going into the kitchen to
put them in water. When she returned she saw Brian sitting on the couch.
She sat next to him, "Do you know how much I love you?" she asked.
He smiled, "So much it hurts."
"How'd you know?"
"I feel the same way."
Annie's heart melted when she heard him say that. Sure he said it before.
Except now when she looked in his eyes she saw nothing, but pure love. All
the love he had for her.
She took a breath,"Make love to me."
Brian was a little shocked, "You know you don't-"
She stopped him, "I want to. I know that you are the one I've been
waiting for my whole life. I knew it from the first time we kissed. We just
had that spark, you know?"
"Yeah, I know," he smiled, thinking back to when he first kissed her.
"Well, I love you and I only want to be with you."
"And I only want to be with you. I love you too, but are you sure?"
"I wouldn't give this a second thought. Now, make love to me."
