TITLE-MIRANDA HAS A BIG SECRET

CHAPTER ONE

LAS ANGELES,CALIFORNIA

MIRANDA SANCHEZ'S APARTMENT

Miranda pulled the sheet up to cover her chest as she turned over in her bed in an effort to see the man who was lying there next to her better. As she watched him sleep peacefully Miranda couldn't help but let a small smile appear across her face, as she used the tip of her finger to lightly trace a pattern up and down his muscular chest. Miranda's smile turned into an almost disbelieving smirk as she thought back to how this hunk who shared her bed most nights now, had once been the little boy who had annoyed the hell out of her so many years ago.

"Why are you watching me sleep again," the man asked with his eyes still closed.

"How do you do that," Miranda asked, her smile returning.

"How do I do what?"

"How do you know when I'm watching you sleep? You have your eyes closed each time."

Matt McGuire opened his eyes to look into the very familiar pair of dark eyes that were watching him closely. "Well, this may sound corny but when it comes to you, hon I've found that I sort of have this mental radar now that alerts me to your presence."

"Your right that did sound corny," Miranda smiled mischievously.

"Ha ha," smirked Matt as he sat up in the bed resting his back against the head board.

"Ran..." said Matt using his pet nickname for Miranda as he turned over to look at the clock next to the bed and than back to Miranda"...do you want to tell me what you're doing up and watching me sleep at two-thirty in the morning?"

"Couldn't sleep," said Miranda as she sat up in bed next to Matt "I was worried that you were still mad at me. You know about the decision I made before we went to bed."

"I wouldn't say I was mad at you Miranda," sighed Matt "It was more like I was..."

"Disappointed," Miranda finished for him her eyes down cast.

"Well yeah," nodded Matt "It's just that it's starting to seem to me like you're ashamed of what we have going on between us. That you're hell bent on hiding it from everyone."

"Matt McGuire you're a big dumb ass you know that?" Miranda spoke looking back up at Matt quickly with fire in her eyes and a firm tone to her voice "Don't you ever think I'm ashamed of what we have going on between us!"

"Well than Miranda maybe you can tell me than why it is you don't want us to tell anyone about our relationship when we go up to Hillridge next week for Lizzie and Gordo's wedding," Matt asked in frustration.

"Sweetie," said Miranda softly as she took a hold of one of Matt's hands and looked lovingly into his eyes "You know your sister just as well as I do.Lizzie likes to put the people in her life into nice,neat,little categories that she can understand and like. And when people step out of those neat categories she's put them in she gets confused and upset. You know as well as I do that when she finds out that her best friend and her little brother are not only dating but sleeping together...well let's just say she's more than likely going to hit the roof in anger."

"That's a major understatement," snorted Matt but knowing what Miranda was telling him about Lizzie was true.

"So now do you understand why I want to hold off telling the others about us?"

"I just don't want anything to ruin Lizzie and Gordo's big day," said Miranda "But I swear to you Matt, after everything concerning the wedding is over,we'll tell every body everything, Will tell Lizzie,Gordo,your parents, my parents...hell I'll even stand with you on top of the town hall building in Hillridge and shout it out for the whole town to hear."

"Alright I guess I can go along with you on this for now," Matt sighed again "But only because you promised me you'd tell everyone about us right after the wedding."

"That I will," said Miranda as she scooted over in the bed closer to Matt "Sooooo you not mad at me anymore?"

"Ran I just told you that I wasn't mad at you to begin with," smiled Matt as he wrapped his arms around the beautiful brunette who now held his heart.

"Well in that case," said Miranda as she started kissing Matt softly on his neck "Sincethe both of us seem to be awake right now and neither of us are mad at one another, maybe we could do something to pass the time."

"Hmmm,sounds like a good idea to me," said Matt pretending to ponder the idea "But what on earth should we do to pass the time?"

"Oh I think you know what to do mister," Miranda smiled innocently as she let the bed sheet drop away from her chest.

So what do you think should I continue this?
