"you deserve to be happy"

((The words replayed themselves over and over in her mind as she stood there, staring at the boy who had uttered them. What was happiness really? Callie never really understood happiness. It was a foreign concept she never allowed herself to dream about, because she knew it would always end in disappointment. That was until she met this family of people who despite not being related loved each other with all their heart, until she let herself get lost in all of it. ))

Kiss me like you wanna be loved
you wanna be loved
you wanna be loved

Callie took a step forward, and she could feel the gaze of Brandon's kind hazel eyes that she had learned to love trained on her features. She looked up, and as he tugged her closer, and her lips met his plump pink ones, she knew that this was going to be her happiness from that day on.

This feels like falling in love

He moves forward and the awkward gap ceases to exist. She finds herself moulding into him, folding to fit perfectly, as if she was his missing puzzle piece all along, as if she was the missing harmony he was looking for.

Falling in love
We're falling in love

He moves one hand to hold her in place, fingertips lightly brushing her dress. She cups her hand around his face, their lips still in place. Their actions are frantic; one part of their subconscious aware of the consequences if anyone caught them. They go back and forth, each one fighting to be in control of the precarious situation.

Settle down with me
and I'll be your safety
you'll be my lady

She proceeds to wrap her arms around his head, one slowly scaling up his neck, and the other running through his hair. She tugs on his hair and his head reclines, as they both pull apart for air. Their breaths are ragged, and Callie can't help but let out one of her rare grins when she realises that he was her safe haven.

I was made to keep your body warm
But I'm cold as the wind blows so hold me in your arms

They anxiously join their lips once again, the kisses becoming quicker and more desperate. In that moment, there were two people in their world, and they were Brandon and Callie.

Callie let herself push the thoughts of her being selfish and not thinking for Jude to the back of her mind, and Brandon pardoned himself for the disappointment he knew would stem from the incident. They were happy, genuinely and utterly happy, for once in their lives, and the reason was each other.

Oh no
My heart's against your chest, your lips pressed to my neck
I'm falling for your eyes, but they don't know me yet
And with this feeling I'll forget, I'm in love now

They pulled away one final time, foreheads meeting, their breathing on par, as they let the realisation of what they had just done sink in. Callie let her head rest gently on Brandon's neck, as they stood there, unsure of what to do next.

Soul mate; a person with whom one has a feeling of deep or natural affinity.

Brandon and Callie were like chemicals that would explode when mixed, yet the explosion would cause a rare yet beautiful colour that people would work the rest of their lives trying to recreate. They knew it was wrong, the people around them told them it would be wrong, they knew nothing good would result from being together, yet that little red string of fate still seemed to pull them right next to each other every time they instructed themselves to let go of any kind of longing for each other.

We're falling in love

/A/N; i'm unsure if this is a ficlet or a songfic or a drabble bc it's not very long, and is loosely based on ed sheeran's kiss me. i actually was listening to this song when i thought of doing this, and i realised +this post also served as inspiration i think. also based on the kiss in 1x10 ! hope y'all like it! ((and that it isn't too bad i'm scared bc i haven't done anything like this before )) request anything you want me to do in the comments i guess, and i'll try my best to deliver. /
