I got home from school and plopped myself on the couch. I couldn't get that conversation out of my head. 'I freaking love you. I care for you and your happiness.' I couldn't actually believe I said those things to her. I spilled out my soul and she just stands there. I breathe as I massage my temples. 'Why do you hate me so much? What did he ever do to you? He took you away from me!'

Someone clears their throat and I quickly look up. Bree is standing next to the couch, nervous and fidgeting again. I fold my arms as a sign that I didn't want to speak to her, my eyes getting watery by the second. Leo comes in and we both stare at him. He's all happy but then stops as he sees us. Smiling awkwardly he begins to run out of the room.

Bree and I both raise our eyebrows.

Bree shakes off Leo's exit and returns to the case at hand. "Chase…"

"How did you get in?" I turn away from her more.

"Mr. Davenport gave me a key. Now can you just hear me out, please?"

I look at her from the corner of his eye, thinking if I should or not. I nod my approval.

"Thank you", always polite, I thought. "Okay. First off, when you said I will never love you, I do. I always have. I just thought you never did."

"What!" I get up off the couch and march up to her in frustration, "Why did you think that? I've always been there for you! Always! And you're saying that I never loved you?"

"Well I knew you loved me and you always helped me. You've always been there for me but I thought it was because you loved me like a sister, you wanted to protect me and stuff." Her eyes were confused.

"Is that what you thought? Listen Bree, I'm not your brother and you're not my sister." I go closer to her, I'm inches away now. "I wanted you so much. I wanted to touch you and feel you in my arms every night. I want you to be mine. But you're with Ethan." Pain began to build up in my sides. I was so angry with myself for not telling her years ago about this. I've spent so many years trying to tell myself that it will never be because she loved someone else, not me. It will never be me.

"I do love you Chase…" My eyes began to water as I shook my head in violent protest. 'Here comes the 'but I can't because…' I thought. "That's why I broke up with Ethan."

My eyes opened in surprise. "What… why did you do that?"

"Because I knew it was the right thing to do… I don't love him as much as I love you." She looked up at me as she bit her lip softly.

I lick my lips, wanting to taste hers for a long time. We start to move towards each other, eyes not blinking. Then our lips touched and it was amazing, like in the movies. Fireworks going off like there's no tomorrow. I deepened it as I pulled her closer towards me. A piece of paper couldn't even fit between us as she moaned slightly at the contact.

"Man! Get a room!" As we pull apart from each other we see Adam and Leo's disgust faces. Mr. Davenport and Tasha were also beside them as they looked at us with knowing looks and smiled.

I laugh as I look back at Bree who was looking back at me with loving eyes. "I love you so much…" I said. And it was true…

"I'm in love with you Chase," She starts to say as she puts her arms around my neck, smiling uncontrollably. Then she says something strange; something that I didn't expect her to say. "NOBODY ELSE, and that's what I know for sure."
