Some of you may not be happy that I'm starting a new story, but I promise I will get to the others soon. So I have a fairly long commute to work every day, and I've got some time to daydream. This one came to me this week. It's set basically in the present time, maybe a couple years into the future. I'm not going to age anyone though. I'm not sure how many chapters this story is going to be- it may be only a few. It depends on if you all like it or not. Hope you enjoy!

Brenda stood in the hotel lobby surrounded by her family and friends. It was a couple days before her wedding and she was starting to feel the butterflies in her stomach. Brenda excused herself as she made her way to the hotel bar where she found her twin brother.

"Hey big brother," she said as she sat down beside him.

"Hey sis," he replied, looking over at her. She was glowing, and he'd never seen her so happy. "How are you feeling? Overwhelmed yet?"

"To be honest, yeah. I'm getting nervous. Is it supposed to feel this way?"

"I've had a few nerves from time to time," he told her, laughing half-heartedly. Brenda frowned a little bit, upset that she had brought up the past with her brother. She knew his personal life had been on the back burner for the past few years when he began traveling for work. She knew how much he loved his work and traveling around the world, but he had lost his marriage in the midst of it all. Brenda would never tell her brother, but she never saw his marriage as long-term. It seemed like they had to work at it too hard- things never fell into place. As for her upcoming wedding, she couldn't be happier. It had taken quite a long time for Brenda to shut one chapter of her life and open another. She had to let her past go. Brenda looked up at her brother who was staring into space. She knew he was having a hard time letting his past go.

"You nervous about seeing her?" she asked.

"Who?" he asked, knowing all to well whom she was speaking of.

Brenda slapped his arm. "You know who I'm talking about. Brandon, you talk to her on the phone any chance you get. " She looked him in the eyes. "Listen, if it makes you feel any better, she's probably nervous about seeing you too."

Brandon watched his sister as she smirked a little. "You two been talking about me?" he questioned her.

"You should be so lucky….." Brenda started to stand up as Brandon caught her by the arm.

"Bren…"

Brenda knew what he wanted to ask. "She asks about you sometimes, okay?"

Brandon loosened his grip as he too stood up, satisfied with her answer. "Let's go. Time to mingle with your guests."


The elevator doors opened and the blonde-haired boy ran off the elevator.

"Sammy, slow down." Kelly told him as she picked up her pace. But Sammy didn't slow down as he saw Brenda standing in the corridor.

"Aunt Brenda!" Brenda down as the Sammy came running towards her and she picked him up in her arms, giving him a big hug.

"Hey there, cutie. Are you ready for my wedding?" she asked as she held him in her arms.

"Yep, I'm going to be the best ring bear you'll ever have."

The small group of family members chuckled at his answer. "You are definitely the most handsome ring bear I've ever seen," Brenda told him.

Kelly finally made her way to the group, giving Brenda a hug. Cindy Walsh stepped back for a moment, watching the two women. It had been years since she had seen them together. There had always been drama between them because of Dylan. And now with Kelly having Dylan's son, she didn't expect it to be any different, but somehow it was. When Brenda had gone back to Beverly Hills for a short while, she had reconciled her friendship with Kelly and it seemed that they had finally put their pasts behind them. Mrs. Walsh thought it would be difficult for Brenda to be around Sammy, knowing it was Dylan's child, but she accepted it and they seemed to get very close as time went by. She wasn't surprised when Brenda chose Sammy as her ring bearer.

"We were about to go for our final fitting. I'm glad we caught you guys," Brenda told Kelly. Brenda re-introduced Kelly to the rest of the family that was surrounding them, most of whom Kelly had met in the past. Kelly and Mrs. Walsh embraced for quite some time, as emotions took over. Kelly had always thought of Mrs. Walsh as a mother, as she had been a motherly figure to Kelly the majority of her teenage life. Cindy Walsh met Sammy, who gave her a big squeeze as he did most people he met.

"Is this a reunion, or what?" they all heard someone say behind them. The group turned as Jim Walsh approached Kelly, giving her a tight hug. Brenda looked away from the group and saw her brother watching from a distance. As Kelly loosened her grip, her eyes caught Brenda's staring across the room. She followed her glare and saw Brandon standing by the wall, holding a bottle of water. She watched as his eyes met hers and he lifted the water bottle to take a sip. The entire room became silent, except for Sammy, who was too excited to notice what was going on.

"Mommy, I want to go see sights," he told her, pulling on her shirt. Brenda grabbed Sammy's hand and started leading him away from the group, hoping the rest of her family would follow. "You're going sightseeing Sammy? What do you want to see first?" she asked him, half paying attention, half trying to lead her family in her direction to give them some privacy.

Kelly slowly made her way towards Brandon, who just stood there watching her. He hadn't seen her in a few years. Sure, he'd talked to her on the phone what seemed like a hundred times, but to see her in person was an entirely different ordeal. He never thought Kelly could become more beautiful, but it seemed that motherhood was treating her quite well.

"Hi," she said nervously, stopping a couple feet from him.

"Hi," he replied, suddenly at a loss for words. They both looked down at the ground.

She looked up at his small, but muscular figure. "You look good."

Brandon looked up and caught her eye. "And you…" he lifted his hands. "Look at you. I'm at a loss for words." Brandon quickly looked back down at the ground, feeling embarrassed.

They both smiled softly as they inched closer to each other. Brandon was the first one to reach around Kelly's waist and pull her in close. Kelly closed her eyes as she wrapped her arms around Brandon's neck, feeling him wrap his other arm around her in a tight embrace. They stayed in that position for quite some time, neither one wanting to let go.

"Mommy, it's time to go," a little voice interrupted them. Both loosened their grips as Kelly looked down at Sammy.

"Sam, I want you to meet a friend of mine. This is Brandon." Brenda also chimed in as she bent down next to Sammy. "This is my brother, Sammy. Can you say hi?"

Brenda didn't need to ask twice. Sammy griped Brandon's leg as he gave it a tight squeeze and the entire family watching laughed, including Brandon.

"Nice to meet you, Sammy," Brandon replied.

"Now can we go see sights Mommy?" he pleaded with Kelly.

"Sure, Sam. We'll see you all later. " Kelly started walking away, but Brandon reached for her arm, stopping her.

"Wait, I'd like to see you later and catch up. What room are you in?"

"1214," Kelly replied, gently squeezing Brandon's hand that was still grasping her arm.

"C'mon mom. Let's go." Kelly was pulled away by her son towards the door, but Kelly got a quick look at Brandon as he watched them closely and gave her a sweet smile.
