AN: Songs Bethany Joy Lenz - Halo. I do not own the Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants and I may be likely to make mistakes with timings, etc. But of course it is fiction.

Don't go. She wanted to say it, the words hovered on the tip of her tongue, but dissolved into the darkened room. She felt sleepy and wanted to lie in Brian's arms until she dreamt only of him. It was late and her parents would be home soon. Even though they did allow Brian to stay over, she nodded in agreement.
"Goodnight Tibby." he mumbled under his breath, walking out of the room before she could respond.
