Chapter 5: We Belong Together
May 31st, 1994 – University of California – The quad – 11 a.m.
Dylan is watching Brenda study for her last exam. He is so happy that he got another chance with her and he has promised himself that they will get it right this time around. He loves her so much and he is willing to do whatever it takes to stay together for good this time.
Dylan walks up to her and kisses her on the cheek. She kisses him on the cheek and hugs him. They stare into each other's eyes for ten minutes.
"Are you here to take me to The Peach Pit?," Brenda asks.
"Yes, I am Miss Walsh. Your chariot awaits," Dylan says.
Fifteen minutes later… The Peach Pit… Dylan opens the door and escorts Brenda in.
"Surprise," everyone screams.
Brenda notices a banner that reads "Good luck in London Brenda. We will miss you,".
"Did you know about this Brandon?," Brenda asks.
"Guilty. I am going to miss you so much Brenda. Donna planned this whole party for you," Brandon says pointing to Donna.
Donna walks up to Brenda and hugs her.
"I am so happy that you and Dylan are back together. I have never seen two people more in love than you two. We are going to miss you so much this summer," Donna says.
"I will miss you so much Donna. You are my best friend," Brenda says.
"Can I steal her for a minute?," Dylan asks.
"Sure," Donna says and goes over to talk to Nat.
The back room of the Peach Pit
"Can I say something to you?," Dylan asks.
"You can say anything to me Dylan," Brenda says.
"There are no words to describe how much I am going to miss you Brenda. I know that you will only be gone for the summer but I cannot stand being apart from you even for one minute. It hurts not to be around you. I need you to know that it took me a long time to realize where my heart lies but my heart belongs with you because we belong together. Whether we are together or apart, we have always been there and always will be there for each other. Will you move in with me when you get back from London?," Dylan says.
"Yes, I will move in with you the second I get back from London. That speech was so beautiful and so heartfelt. I love you so much," Brenda says and kisses him passionately on the lips.
Five hours later… Dylan's house… In his bed
"That was amazing Dylan," Brenda says as she stares into his eyes.
"That is because you are so amazing in and out of bed Brenda," Dylan says.
"That speech you gave me touched my heart so much Dylan. Did you plan that speech or did it come from the heart?" Brenda asks.
"It came straight from the heart Miss Walsh" Dylan asks.
"That is what I though Mr. McKay," Brenda says.
"What is the plan for tomorrow Brenda?" Dylan asks.
"I would love for you to help me pack, to tell my parents that I am moving out when I get back home and to spend some time alone with you right here in your bed. Is that all right with you Dylan?" Brenda asks.
"It sounds like a great plan Miss Walsh. Now, where were we?" Dylan says seductively.
"You were right here Mr. McKay," Brenda says pointing to her neck.
Three hours later… Casa Walsh… The driveway
Brenda is standing next to Dylan's car and they are just staring at each other.
"I love you so much Dylan. I am going to miss you when I am in London. Let's make the most of the time that we do have before I go to London. We have the rest of our lives to be together," Brenda says.
"I love you Brenda. There are not enough words in the world to describe how much I love you," Dylan says and just stares at Brenda.
"Promise me that you will call me when you get home," Brenda says.
"I promise you that I will call you as soon as I get home. I love you Brenda Walsh," Dylan says.
"I love you Dylan McKay," Brenda says and kisses him passionately on the lips.
Brenda pulls away from the kiss and walks into Casa Walsh. Dylan watches her as she walks into her house and he is so happy that they will live together once she gets back from London. He knows that her parents might try to stop her from living with him but there is no one and nothing that can keep them apart this time. There is one reason for this and that reason is that they belong together. As Brenda and Dylan fall asleep that night, they dream of their future together and how much they mean to each other. It takes a lot to tell the person you love that you want to make a commitment with them but once you do your lives will change for the better and it will help to make you fall in love more than you ever thought possible. Brenda and Dylan have just begun to walk down this road and as long as they walk down it together there is nothing that they cannot do.
