She really has to go get ready.

She had promised Jude that she would come to see his friend, Connor, play baseball, and she had just went in to ask Brandon if he had seen her green jacket, but then he was coming close and now her back is to his bed and he's on top of her and his hands are just everywhere and she doesn't want it to stop.

But then his lips are trailing down her jaw and down her neck and her grip at his t-shirt (that, to be honest, she really just wants off) tightens, and she really, really has to get ready.

"I have to go, Brandon." It was harder than she thought to get that out, because he's sucking at her collarbone and she's gonna have to use Mariana's concealer to cover up a hickey, she knows it.

"Wait," he stops only momentarily to murmur that, but it's too long, in her opinion. "You have like, twenty minutes."

"I think you're forgetting that I'm not a guy." She laughs, but she doesn't make any move to get up. "It doesn't take me five seconds to get ready." She reluctantly pulls him up, and his eyes meet with hers. "Besides, I never found my jacket."

He just leans down to connect their lips, and she savors it for a moment before pulling away and rolling out from under him, getting to her feet and heading to the door.

"I'll see you later, okay?" She smirks as he drops down onto his bed, looking somewhat disappointed. "Promise."

She does have to end up covering a hickey on her neck, and thinks to herself that maybe, at this rate, she's gonna have to buy concealer of her own.
