Chapter 11 The Party
"Dylan, nice house bro." Brandon said looking around.
"Thanks man, your sister really liked it and the beach apartment was getting a little too cramped for my style. Also I think we were starting to drive Kelly crazy."
"Yeah I heard about you two, but let's not have that conversation about my sister." Brandon said laughing.
"Noooo problem." Dylan said as he blushed
"So who's here?"
Dylan looked toward the living room, "Well….Bren, Kel and big Jim and Cindy."
"My parents are here?"
"Yep, they sprung it on us a couple days ago."
"Did you tell them about Brenda and Kelly?"
"We told them we were getting married and yep that we were having a baby but Kelly hasn't said anything yet about you two. I think she would rather wait for you."
"Yeah that's understandable, how did they take it? Considering your still alive and I don't hear yelling, that's probably a good sign, right?"
Dylan laughed, "Yeah it went pretty good actually, I knew your mom would be cool, your dad has been pretty quiet but he welcomed me to the family." Dylan smirked
Brandon smiled, "Well hey that's pretty damn good if you ask me."
"Does Kelly know I am coming?"
"Nope I kept it a surprise, I didn't even tell Brenda."
"Good, let me put my bags down and let's go give my parents another heart attack."
Dylan came back into the living room. "Hey guys I have a surprise for you. Well actually it's for you." He looked at Kelly and smiled.
"For me? What is it? Kelly stood up.
Dylan waved in the direction of the entry way and there he was standing before her.
"Brandon?"
"Hey Kel"
"What are you doing here?"
"Dylan and I wanted to surprise you, he knew how bummed you were lately, I have been keeping tabs on you through him and he gave me some good advice plus I missed you."
Kelly ran up and threw her arms around him. She whispered in his ear.
"Thank you, I am so happy you're here."
Brenda went up to Brandon, "Nice to see you back." Brenda gave Brandon a hug and kiss on the cheek.
Brandon grabbed her hand to look at the ring, "Congrats sis, now Dylan has to put up with you full time." He laughed and looked at Dylan.
"HA HA very funny." She hit him in the gut.
Jim and Cindy walked up to him smiling.
"Hey mom…Dad! I am glad you're here too."
"What a nice surprise son."
Brandon hugged both parents.
"So I guess it's our turn to tell you our news." Brandon said grabbing Kelly's hand
"Your news?" both Jim and Cindy looked at Kelly.
Brenda and Dylan walked over and sat on the couch, giving them some space.
"Well it looks like.."
The door bell rang, Brenda looked at Dylan,"We'll get it." Grabbing his hand and pulling him up to answer the door.
"Hey guys." Brenda said smiling
"Come in, come in."
Steve, Janet, Maddie, Olivia, Donna, David and even Andrea made their way through the entry.
"Where's the kids?" Dylan looked confused directing his question at Donna and David.
"My mom is watching them. She offered and we let her cause I haven't been away since I had Jenna"
"Free at last" Joked David
Donna giggled and elbowed him in the ribs
"Nice house man, what did this set you back Mckay?" Steve looked around in awe.
Dylan smiled and rolled his eyes, it was always like Steve to bring up money.
"Thanks" Brenda said happily interrupting whatever smart ass remark Dylan was about to say to Steve.
"Want the grand tour?"
"Absolutely" a few of them said at the same time.
Kelly looked down nervously as Brandon smiled at his parents.
"Well I guess you probably figured Kelly and I are back together."
"That's wonderful" Cindy gushed, "I always had a feeling you two would make it back to one another."
"So that's your news?" Jim said almost relived.
"Well no, actually", Brandon paused and took a breath. "You're actually not going to believe this considering what's going on with Brenda and Dylan but…were Pregnant!" Brandon put his arm around Kelly causing her to relax and smile.
"You're pregnant too?" Jim said pointing to Kelly. "Wow, this is a lot to take in."
"We are happy for you. We have always liked you Kelly." Cindy smiled
"So what's going to happen? Where will you live?" Jim looked at both of them.
"Actually we haven't talked about it yet." Kelly said embarrassed
"Brandon, what about your job?"
"Dad hang on, everything will be fine. I took a leave from the paper and I have an interview with the L.A. times. Hopefully it will pan out. Right now my main concern is Kelly and taking care of her."
"Well I am thrilled, I honestly had given up on the two of you to produce any kind of grandkids for me and look at that we got blessed twice." Cindy giggled.
Jim stood quietly looking concerned but Brandon and Kelly weren't worried. He would come around and Brandon had figured he was probably taken back from everything that had been given to them today. He knew the thought of Dylan and Brenda alone would put Jim in an early grave.
Kelly went over and hugged Cindy, "Thank you Mrs. Walsh."
Brenda and Dylan had finished showing the gang around and they all had made it into the living room.
"Mr and Mrs. Walsh! Steve said going over and giving Cindy a kiss on the cheek and shaking Jim's hand. "I don't believe you have met my wife, this is Janet and these are my girls, Maddie and Olivia."
Jim smiled at the girls, "Wow Steve who would have thought, you married and a father."
Steve laughed, "I know seriously."
Everyone caught up laughing and reminiscing
Brenda was in the kitchen getting everything squared away, Dylan came in to see if she needed any help.
"You ok, need any help?"
"Nope, I think I am good but you can put this on the dining room table and tell everyone to come and help themselves."
"Well that's easy." Dylan leaned in and planted a kiss on her lips moving down to her neck.
Brenda leaned into him, "Ahhhh behave yourself, that's how we got in trouble to begin with." Brenda said smiling.
Dylan laughed, "It was wasn't it. It's the neck kiss, gets you every time."
"Take this, come on." She said pushing him toward the dining room.
"Food is ready." Dylan called out
Everyone made their way to the dining room and saw Brenda had put on quite a spread.
"Wow Bren, like mother like daughter." Steve laughed
Cindy blushed, "I guess I taught her well."
A couple hours had passed and Jim and Cindy excused themselves to retire early. It had been a long flight and a big day. Cindy was so happy she was going to be a grandmother but by the looks of Jim she didn't think he shared her same enthusiasm. After getting to their room Cindy saw that something was bugging Jim.
"What's the matter honey? Aren't you excited for our kids?"
"Yeah part of me is. I mean I know Brenda is old enough to make this decision on her own but with Dylan?"
"Why are you still doing this Jim? Its no surprise Brenda and Dylan are back together, you know how she feels about him."
"That's the point, I know how she feels about him but does he feel the same? He has hurt her so many times; I hate to see her get hurt again and with a baby. Now its not just Brenda's emotions, there is a child involved."
"We are going to have to trust that Brenda and Dylan know what their doing. Honey, Brenda is a grown woman you can't hold on forever. I am thrilled she is going to be a mother and wife."
"And Brandon….. I didn't see a ring on Kelly's finger. What is he doing? By the looks of it, it looked like Kelly hadn't seen him in awhile.
"Jim, it's none of our business, we just have to be there for our kids and love them unconditionally. I am sure Brandon would have come out sooner if he could. He's always been smart. I don't think we have to worry about him to do that right thing.
Back downstairs
"So everyone ok, anyone want coffee?" Brenda said standing up
Dylan pulled her back down to the couch, "Will you relax woman, you have been running around all day."
Donna cuddling up to David, "So what's the big news you wanted to tell us."
Brenda looked over at Kelly, "Do you want to tell them or you want me too?"
"You can" Kelly gave Brandon a kiss on the cheek.
Brenda looked at Dylan and smiled, "Well this is kind of weird but Kelly and I are pregnant."
There was a moment of silence but Donna broke that quickly
"Oh my god, that's great!" Donna said smiling and running up to both girls and giving hugs.
Donna leaned in and whispered to Kelly, "Brandon is the father?"
Kelly nodded smiling and looked at Brandon.
Steve sat there in shock, "Whoa both of you huh, what did you do call each other."
Kelly and Brenda laughed, "Yeah Steve, Kelly and I always call each other and plan to have sex around the same time."
"Well at least it isn't by the same guy." Valerie said as she came into the living room.
"Valerie, I thought you weren't going to make it." Brenda said turning red from the comment Val had just said.
"Yeah well, here I am." Valerie smirked
"Vaaaaal, how you doing?, Steve said smiling , he got up and gave her a big hug.
"Kelly, looks like you got Brandon for good now, tying him down with a baby and all."
Brenda interrupted before the conversation went on from there.
"Dylan and I are also getting married." Brenda said happily addressing everyone else in the gang.
They all looked over at Dylan and tried to pretend they didn't hear what Valerie had just said to Kelly, "Looks like your settling down then huh McKay?" Steve joked.
"Yep guess I am being beat into commission." Brenda smacked him on the arm.
"How did your Jimbo take it? David asked.
"They are shocked I think." Brandon admitted "But they'll be fine."
It was getting late and everyone was saying their goodbyes. Brenda had gone over to Valerie and told her to behave herself.
"Oh come on Brenda, I am just having a little fun. Believe me Kelly is no angel."
"I know that but have some respect for Brandon too."
Kelly walked over to Brandon who hadn't left her side all night.
"You coming to my house?" Kelly asked
"Are you kidding, of course I am?"
Brenda walked over to Kelly, "Did I tell you everything would be fine, or what."
"Yeah, thanks bren." Giving her a big hug.
"Call me tomorrow huh." Brenda rubbed her back as they hugged
"Will do" Kelly said smiling
Kelly walked over to Dylan and hugged him, "Thank you so much for whatever you said to Brandon. After everything we have been through, it feels good to know we can still be friends."
"Kelly, we were always friends and no problem you deserve to be happy, and who knows maybe one day we will be in-laws."
Kelly smiled, "Yeah maybe, even though that's really weird to think about."
The two smiled at each other.
Kelly and Brandon made their way out and holding hands.
Dylan closed the door. "Well that's over with."
"Yeah thank god. I wonder if my dad is ok with everything."
"Bren, we aren't in high school anymore, he's going to have to get over it."
"I know"
They both got ready for bed. As Brenda got undressed Dylan noticed her body. She had looked the same with clothes on. He noticed her breasts were fuller; she had a little more curve to her silhouette. He moved closer to her taking her half naked body into his arms.
"Have I told you how much I love you in the last 15 minutes?"
"ummm no actually you haven't." Dylan said looking Brenda up and down
"Goodnight", Brenda leaned in for a kiss; Dylan pulled her on top of him.
"Dylan! My parents are down the hall."
"So" he said and continued to caress down her back stopping at her butt. "They won't know."
"But…"
Dylan was kissing down her neck making her shiver with goose bumps.
"What was I saying?"
Dylan moved back up to her mouth and she smiled as he kissed her long and hard. "Shhhh" she said "Don't be loud." They both giggled
Brenda couldn't believe how her life was going. It was almost going to well. Not only did she have Dylan back, she was having his baby, going to be his wife and she could not be more in love with their new house. And to top it off they had told her parents and no one stormed out, yelled or cried.
Brandon and Kelly arrived at the beach apartment.
"Did I tell you how beautiful you look? Brandon said leaning in and giving Kelly a kiss on the tip of her nose.
"I can not believe you're here, its unreal."
"I know, I hope I get that job, do you know how perfect that would be?'
"Brandon, what did Dylan say to you to make you come home sooner?"
Brandon turned to face her and moved a strand of hair that had fell almost over her eye.
"He told me he was worried about you, that both you girls were going through some emotional and physical stuff and he didn't think you should be going through it alone. He also mentioned that he wanted to take care of you but knew that things weren't perfect between the two of you. He also didn't want any jealousy between you and Brenda, stuff like that."
"I have to admit I was jealous of Brenda. Everything was falling into place for her. I didn't understand why I didn't deserve the same happiness."
"Kelly, you do deserve the same happiness. This is a huge thing; it will change our lives forever."
Brandon rubbed his nose against hers. He opened his mouth and met hers. They closed their eyes and melted into each other's kiss. Brandon was the only one who truly could do that to her. He was by far the best kisser she had ever had and she couldn't believe he was here. They both came up for air.
"I missed this."
"Me too"
Brandon took Kelly's hands and placed them behind her while picking her up. He took her to her bedroom kissing her the whole way. He laid her on her bed and slowly kissed down her whole body. Stopping at her belly he slowly moved his hands across it, gently rubbing it.
"I can't wait to be a father."
"Are you nervous?" Kelly whispered
"Not really, do you know I always imagined we would have 3 kids."
"3 huh? Let's get through this one first. You may change your mind after you see how emotional and hormonal I have become."
"Brandon, do you think I tied you down like Valerie said."
"No Kelly don't be ridiculous, since when do you listen and believe anything Valerie says."
"I know, I am just sensitive I guess."
Brandon leaned and kissed her passionately on the lips. "I missed you so much." He continued to kiss this time opening his mouth just a little and sweeping his tongue against her top lip.
"I love you." Kelly whispered
"I love you too." Brandon whispered back
After an incredible night together, Kelly laid in his arms not wanting to let go. She snuggled even closer to him causing him to move a little and groan. For the first time she felt happy and at that moment nothing else mattered.
So things are going to move a bit faster through, this has kind of been a slow start and I hope I havent lost anybody. Please give your comments and ideas. This story is a work in progess.
