Letters To The Editor

Disclaimer: I don't own Beverly Hills 90210 or any of the characters on the show... this is just a little twist that I thought up while I was watching it. If I did own the show you can bet that Kelly and Brandon would never have broken up... but I don't and they did so on with life... right!

Author's Note: This is my first Beverly Hills 90210 fan fiction so please any feedback you can give is welcome... good or bad... I'll take it.

October 1997

Casa Walsh Brandon and Kelly's Bedroom

Dear Diary,
These past few months have just been a complete blur, everything has been happening so fast! It all started with Brandon asking me to go to Hawaii with him and the rest of the gang, then it just started to spiral down from there.

Long story, short, I ended up going to Hawaii, but only because Donna told me that Brandon was hanging out with an old girlfriend and I was jelous, so I had to see it for myself. I felt horrible when I got there and found out that she was engaged, but I had a great twenty-second birthday! When we got back to Los Angeles I got caught up in a drive by shooting, at the airport, and ended up losing my memory. Brandon stayed with me through the whole thing and helped me with everything. I just recently began to remember everything I had forgotten, including my whole relationship with him. It was because of this incident that got me thinking about my true feelings for Brandon and that I really love him and never want to lose him.

However, on the other hand, I don't believe that he has ever said I love you to me, or at least not that I can remember... I'm just not sure how to tell him that I want to know that he loves me and not that he just cares for me... maybe I'll write a letter to him!!

Thanks for listening,
Kelly Tayor

It was about eight in the morning when Kelly finnished writing, and Brandon was just getting out of the shower. They had come up with this little ritual when Kelly had moved back in with him, and it had worked so far. She closed her diary and put the lock back on it before she carefully slipped it under her socks, in the top drawer fo her dresser. Just as she had closed the drawer Brandon walked out of the bathroom with his red and black robe on.

"Oh, sorry should I have stayed in there longer? I thought you would be done by now." Brandon said about to turn back around and leave the bedroom.

"No, no Brandon it's okay I was grabbing some socks..." She said as she sheepishly held up the pair of socks in her hand.

Kelly sat back down on the bed and started to put on her socks, and Brandon continued on his way to the closet to find something to wear on his first day as the editor of The Beverly Beat newspaper. Of course, Kelly had other things running through her mind, like how she was going to let Brandon know that she wanted him to tell her how he felt, even if he wasn't sure. Brandon had found the perfect suit and was on his way out of the bedroom when Kelly stopped him.

"Hey Brandon... I love you!" She said as she gave him a quick kiss goodbye.

"I know... See you tonight at the After Dark?" He somewhat questioned because he wasn't sure if she thought it was a good idea yet.

"Yeah that sounds like fun... can we get a few mega burgers first I have been wanting one all week"

"Sure I gotta go though." Brandon said quickly walking out of her sight.

I think she is onto me... She keeps saying I love you... I don't know if I should say it back or if I should just ignore it... yes, I love her or at least I think I do, but now is not the right time to tell her. Brandon's mind was wondering thinking about the perfect time to tell her but nothing seemed like the perfect time or place to do it. Maybe tomorrow night... He had been planing this romantic night since they had gotten back from Hawaii... they were just so busy lightly... her with the Wyatt Foundation and him with The Beverly Beat. It was just becoming so difficult to plan anything.

The Beach Apartment

It was around nine in the morning when Kelly arrived at the beach apartment where Donna and David were staying. David had already left to get a few things done at the club and Donna was just finnishing up a few things before she to headed off to work. Kelly didn't know if she should just walk in or not so she just stood outside the open door waiting for Donna to notice her.

"Oh my God! Kelly you scared the crap out of me... What are you doing here? I thought you had to be at the Foundation this morning!" Donna stated as she hugged her best friend.

"I called them and let them know that I wasn't feeling well and would be taking the morning off... I just needed some help with something that has been bugging me, and I thought since you are my best friend maybe you could help." Kelly said as she sat down on the couch.

"Yeah what's up?" Donna asked a little confused as she sat next to her friend.

"It's nothing really I just don't know how Brandon feels about me or where our relationship is going and it is driving me nuts... I keep saying I love him but guess what I get in return... that's right I get nothing... not a damn thing... just dead air from him. I am seriously considering writing a letter to the editor and seeing if he will figure out that it is me... What do you think?" Kelly said exasporated and about ready to lose it.

"Well I say go for it..."

"What?" Kelly was shocked to hear that coming out of Donna's mouth, of all people.

"Yeah, I mean you want him to answer you, truthfully, and he can't seem to say it to your face so... maybe making it public will cause him to say something"

"Then again it could cause him to get mad!!! Oh I don't know!" Kelly now had her head in her hands shaking her head back and forth.

"If he does get mad just tell him the truth, but this is Brandon we are talking about... he doesn't catch on to quickly... he may not even realize that it is you writing the leter so go for it... you have nothing to lose!" Donna was trying her hardest to help her friend and not be late for her job.

"Hey, that's my boyfriend we're talking about... I think he deserves a little more credit than that!" Kelly said getting defensive.

"I didn't mean it the way it sounded..." Donna said looking at the clock by the TV.

"I'm sorry Donna I know you have to get to work... I guess I'll try the letter and see what happens in tomorrows edition"

"That's the spirit Kelly!" Donna said as she gave her friend one last hug and headed out the door. "If you want to stay and write the letter here feel free... just make sure you lock the door when you leave..."

"Thanks! I think I will..." Kelly said as Donna left the apartment.

Kelly went to her old room, which hadn't really changed much because both her and Donna were unsure on how long Brandon and her would be living together. Kelly hoped that it would be for the rest of their lives but Donna was just being careful, after all Kelly was her best friend and had been since grade school. She went over to her desk and pulled out a note book and began writing.

After about an hour she took the finnished piece of paper and reread it to make sure it said exactly what she wanted it to, before signing it as an anonymous fan. She put it in and envolope and addressed it to The Beverly Beat and put it in her purse. It was almost eleven, and time to get to the paper, and then off to the Foundation to do some work. Maybe that would keep her mind off of Brandon.
