A/N: I'm sorry to say that my German lessons start again on Tuesday so I won't be able to update on Mondays or Tuesdays.

Anyway, this chapter is unbetaed. Enjoy!

Chapter 9

"He what?!" Santana asked surprised.

"He kissed me," I repeated. "Yes, on the lips."

"Does Blaine know?" she asked again.

"Of course not, are you kidding?"

"He would have killed him," Rachel, who just came out of the kitchen, said.

"Curls doesn't have the right to tell Hobbit what to do with her love life," Santana said.

"He did save her once," Rachel pointed out.

"Yeah, but come on, his brother?" Santana reasoned. "Would he ever harm Hobbit? Would he do anything she doesn't want to? Blaine and his parents would never forgive him."

"Point to Santana. Do you like him, Lucy?" Rachel asked me.

I hesitated. I thought about Coop. He is indeed hot. I wouldn't actually call him hot. Not that he isn't, but I would describe him as beautiful. This word definitely suited him better. He is unbelievably beautiful. He has blue eyes that can easily pierce through you and his lips... Oh his lips, they make me go crazy. And yes he is hot as hell. "I do," I finally answered.

"Of course, you do,"Santana said. "Even I liked him the first time I saw him and as we all know I have a preference for women."

"What am I gonna do?" I asked the girls. I have no experience at all with relationship problems.

"Is he staying here or going back to LA?" Rachel asked me.

"I think he's staying for a few weeks," I replied.

They didn't have time to answer because the bell interrupted us. Rachel was the one to open the door.

"Oh!" I heard her voice. "Cooper! What a pleasant surprise!"

Cooper?! What is he doing here? My heart started beating faster and I wondered if that's how falling in love feels like.

"Hi, Rachel," Cooper said. "Is Lucy here?"

Rachel glanced in the house for a moment and waited for my confirmation. I nodded. "Yes, she's here. Please, come in."

A smile lighted up his face as soon as he saw me. "Hi Lucy, Santana," he said. "Lucy can we talk for a minute?"

I stood up. "Sure, come on, let's go to my room," I said and guided him there.

On the way there, I remembered that my room was a mess. When I returned from the wedding last night, I undressed myself and threw my clothes on the floor. I also hadn't made my bed. We entered the room and I noticed that my underwear was on the floor too. I turned to face him and I wore an expression of pure shock. He must have noticed, too, because he had a tiny hint of a smile on his face.

"Excuse me, my room is a mess," I said and I was sure I had blushed.

His smile didn't leave his lips. "It's okay," he said. "I came here to ask you to go out anyway."

"Go out?" I asked. "Me and you? Like... a date?" My words had escaped my mouth before I even had time to think about it.

He avoided answering. "Don't you want to?" he asked.

"What? Yes! Sure, why not?" Okay, now you're overreacting, I told myself.

"Great."

"Wait, does Blaine know?" I asked him and he must have heard the panic in my voice.

"Why should Blaine know?" he asked me, confused.

"'Cause... I don't go out with anyone if he isn't approved by Blaine," I replied.

He laughed at this. "And has he found anyone that's good enough, yet?" he asked me.

I lowered my head. "No, he hasn't," I said.

"So maybe Blaine is wrong," Cooper said. "Maybe you can find the right man on your own."

"Maybe," I mumbled. "Okay, let me grab my bag and we're out."

As soon as I was done, he offered me his arm and I eagerly took it. Then we greeted Santana and Rachel and we were out.

"So where are we going?" I asked him.

"I've planned something special for us," he said. "It's a surprise."

"The last time, a boy told me that 'it's a surprise', he took me to a deserted, dark alley and tried to... he tried to have sex with me," I said.

"Fine, I promise that the place I'm taking you to, is crowded, extremely light and is the exact opposite of sex," he said. "Do you trust me?"

I thought about it for a minute. He is Blaine's brother after all. "Yes," I replied him.

He said we would walk there, which I liked because I got to hold his hand on the way. No, you did not just say that.

"So tell me about you," he said. "I mean all my parents have done since you moved in is talk about you."

"Well, I'm Lucy Adams, 20 years old. I come from London. I lived in an orphanage and I know nothing about my parents, except that my father's last name is Adams," I said. "Your parents literally saved my life."

"Hmm, is that all?" he asked me.

"What else do you wanna know?" I asked back.

"Everything," he said.

His answer intrigued me. Everything? What does he mean everything? "Help me out. Ask me questions," I told him.

"So... how did you feel when my parents said they would take you in?" he asked.

"Grateful, I definitely felt grateful," I said. "Then I was scared. I mean, some strangers offered to let me live in their house. They could be anything from maniacs to killers or even worse, I don't know."

"Who do you love more than anyone?" he asked me.

Unexpected question, but an easy one. "Blaine," I answered firmly. "He was the first one to make me feel special. He is like my brother."

"I hope I'm not like a brother to you," he said.

"Why not?" I asked him.

"'Cause brothers don't do this," he said and kissed me full on the lips.

I didn't break the kiss, of course I didn't. Only someone with mental problems would break this divine kiss. My hand left his hand and I wrapped my arms around his neck. A few moments later broke the kiss. "Let's leave that for when we're alone, shall we?" he said.

And as much as I wanted to go on, I knew he was right. "Right," I fixed my hair a bit. "So are we close?"

"We're getting there," he said.

Ten minutes later, we arrived. "A fun park?" I asked. I could hear the excitement in my own voice.

"Aha," he said. "Come on. I'll win a teddy bear for you."
