A/N: Hi guys! Sorry for taking so long to update but my oldest son is sick and I wasn't feeling so well myself. So I'm also behind on my chapters. I'm usually ahead by two or three chapters, but at the moment I'm not even a chapter ahead. Anyway here is the newest chapter I hope you guys enjoy, and by the way it's been great hearing from you. Thanks for the reviews.
Chapter 11
As they were driving back to the hotel Brie had noticed that Seth had completely bypassed the hotel. She looked at him curiously for a minute to see if he would realize that he had missed the turn, and when he didn't she finally spoke up.
"Um, Seth where you going?" She asked. "The hotel was a few turns back." She told him using her thumb to point out the back windshield.
"I know." He nodded as he continued to drive further and further away from the hotel.
"So then where are we going?" She asked again.
"There's a lake out this way. Anytime we would have a show here I'd come out here to just wind down and relax. Not only do I need to wind down and relax you and I need to have a talk." He told her as he turned down a dimly lit road which she assumed led to the lake.
"Okay?" She replied unsure on whether or not she should be worried.
A quiet few minutes later Seth pulled into an empty parking space at the lake. The two of them got out the car and met at the front of the car. It was very peaceful and quiet except for the fountain you could hear crashing into the lake further in the distance.
"So what's up?" She asked.
"Come on." He told her as began walking towards the sound of the fountain. Brie slowly began to follow him. He led her to a dimly lit area with a bench, and the fountain was in front of them.
"So what's going on?" She asked taking a seat turning to face him.
After a moment he sighed a took a seat next to her. "It's about last night." He finally spoke.
Brie nodded she figured it was going to come up eventually but she just wasn't ready to be questioned at least not yet. She was silent for a moment too as she tried to figure out what to say.
"I figured that was going to come up eventually." She laughed nervously as she turned her gaze away from him to the lake in front of them, embarrassed by her actions from the night before. "I'm sorry Seth. I don't know what came over me."
"No it's fine." He told her, "I just want to know what triggered it?"
Brie shrugged, "I dunno." She simply stated. "I dunno I guess once you work with somebody for so long especially in the way that we have been working together feelings arise and sometimes I guess you want to know if what your feeling is real." She said as she shyly turned to face him again. "I'm sorry it won't happen again."
"I'm not upset." He told her. "You don't have to apologize. I was just surprised by your actions. I knew we had slowly become friends over the period we've been working together, but I'd never thought you'd push the friendship barrier. You never seemed to be the type to do that especially with me. You hated my guts for the longest."
Brie nodded, "Can I be honest with you for a minute?" She asked as their eyes met.
"Please do." He smiled warmly. "This is why I brought us out here. So we can open up and see what is really happening."
She had fallen silent once again. She was embarrassed by what happened last night and what she was about to admit was even more scary for her. "This is so hard." She spoke up.
"It's fine." He nodded. "I have all night."
Finally after a couple more moments of silence she sat up on the bench and turned to face him once again. "I've never hated you Seth, in fact I've always kind of liked you, but with Dean around and all his hate towards me it has kept me away. I've always wanted to get to know you better, but I've either been to shy or worried that Dean would have something to say about it. And then I got word that I was going to be managing you guys and it gave me a little bit of hope. Hope that maybe I would finally be able to sit down with you and get know you better and to make it clear to you that I actually didn't hate you at all and in fact I actually liked you. Then once we got our story-line it gave me even more hope. Then last night I saw an opportunity to let you know how I truly felt, and the only reason I chose last night is because I felt that we have come a long way since the beginning and last night couldn't have been a better opportunity. Me and you watching a crap movie on tv, having a few beers it just felt right at that moment. I couldn't help myself."
"So if you've always liked me why were you such a bitch in the beginning."
"I was never a bitch towards you personally. It was all goes back to Dean. I dunno what it is but he and I just can't get along, and whenever I see him the bitch in me comes out." She told him, "I never wanted to be that way towards you."
Seth nodded, "So you like me, huh?" He smiled teasingly.
Brie laughed, "Yes, but just don't go throwing it in my face."
Seth shook his head, "No, I wouldn't do that to you."
"Good." She smiled.
"But since we're being honest I guess I should say something too huh?"
"It would be fare yes."
"I'm not going to lie Brie, I've always had a crush on you ever since I saw you walk in the door for the first time three years ago, but again Dean being the asshole he is stopped me from acting on it. He knew I liked you, so he did everything in his power to get underneath your skin. Which obviously worked. So instead of being able to admire you in person like this I had to admire you from afar, and just hope that no one would swipe you up before I could get to you." He told her with a shy smile that Brie had never seen before. She thought it was the cutest thing she had ever seen. "And then that kiss you gave me last night released so many feelings and emotions out of me that I didn't even know existed. It gave me such a rush that I had to feel it again. That's the main reason I took control. I had to feel it again, and I'd give anything to feel it once more."
She smiled she thought that she was the only one who felt that sudden rush. "I thought I was crazy because I thought I was the only one who felt it."
"No." He replied, "You weren't alone."
"That's good to hear." She smiled as she stood up and walked over to Seth. "Let's be crazy together." She quietly stated as she sat down in his lap so that she was facing him.
"Okay." He replied quietly as the two of them gazed into each other's eyes. "So what do we do now?" He asked as he gently pressed his forehead against her's. "We've admitted our feelings."
"Shh." She quietly shushed him as she gently pushed their foreheads up so that their lips were only centimeters apart. "You talk too much." She whispered before taking his lips into her's, closing the small gap between them.
Once again they both felt that immediate rush. He used his arms that were wrapped around her waist to pull her closer into him before removing them and placing them around the sides of her neck underneath her long brown hair as he deepened the kiss gently tugging her hair.
A few minutes later they slowly pulled away. "Damn Brie." He breathlessly managed to get out before he took her lips again, but more forcefully than the last as he slid in some tongue. She immediately welcomed it by wrapping her arms around his neck pulling him in closer as she gave some tongue back. Once he felt her tongue the fire burning inside of him quickly turned into raging furnace. He caressed her lips with his one last time before breaking the kiss. Once again he was breathless. "You're...you're gonna cause me to do bad things." He told her as he still tried to catch his breath.
Brie smiled, "And..?"
"And bad things isn't a good a thing." He told her. "I've never felt this with anyone ever before, and I'm doing my best to control myself but damn is it hard. You're driving me crazy Brie, and if you keep kissing me the way you do..I can't be held responsible for what happens next."
This intrigued Brie. She wanted to see just how far she could push. Would he actually take it all the way? She wanted to know. Even if he were to take it all the way she wouldn't stop him. They liked each other that was obvious so what was stopping them. No he didn't have any sort of protection but she was on birth control so the risk was slim. Plus it had been awhile since she had been with anyone so her hormones were a raging mess at the moment. It was now or never.
