Chapter 28 - Life's Little Moments - Part 2

Brandon puts his arm around Kelly and they walk back to the car.

"Anything?" asked Brandon as Kelly checked her phone.

"Nothing yet," replied Kelly.

"Hold on, I gotta call Silver and tell her we're gonna be late coming home," said Kelly.

"Ok," said Brandon.

Kelly takes out her cell phone and calls Silver.

"Hey Kel," said Silver.

"Silver, hey. I'm just calling to see if Sammy's ok," said Kelly.

"He's fine. When are you coming home?" asked Silver.

"That's the thing. I don't know. My car broke down and Brandon and I are just waiting for the mechanic to show up," replied Kelly.

"Ok, do you want me to do something?" asked Silver.

"No. Just order dinner; pizza or something. There's some money on my nightstand," replied Kelly.

"Ok. Call me if you need anything," said Silver.

"Will do. Thanks," said Kelly.

"Sure...bye," said Silver.

"Bye," said Kelly.

They both hang up the phone.

"How are they?" asked Brandon.

"Good. So what do you wanna do in the meantime?" asked Kelly.

Brandon looked around the park and it seemed so quiet. They were the only ones in the park. The moon is so beautiful as it lit the night sky. Maybe he didn't miss his chance after all.

He took Kelly by the hand and lead him back her to bench. She smiled.

"Oh, I know what you're up to," smiled Kelly.

"You do?" asked Brandon surprised.

"I can't remember the last time I've done this," replied Kelly.

"Excuse me?" asked Brandon confused.

"C'mon. This will be so much fun," replied Kelly smiling dragging Brandon to the playground.

As they headed to the playground, Brandon has a weird look on his face. This is not what he had in mind.

"Last one to the swings has to push," smiled Kelly as she runs towards the swings.

Brandon doesn't follow her. Kelly gets to the swings, stops, turns, and looks at Brandon.

"What's wrong?" asked Kelly.

Brandon looks at Kelly and smiles.

"Nothing. I'm coming," smiled Brandon as he runs towards Kelly.

Some time goes by and we see them laughing while going down on the slide. After they hit the bottom to the slide, they looked into each other's eyes.

"Hold out your hand," smiled Kelly.

"Ok," smiled Brandon.

Kelly lightly slaps it.

"What was that for?" asked Brandon.

"You're it," replied Kelly as she runs off.

Brandon gets up and chases after Kelly. They chase each other around back and forth a few times.

Brandon eventually manages to catch Kelly. They both fall on the sand laughing.

"Who's it now?" asked Brandon smiling.

"Still you," replied Kelly smiling.

Brandon smiles. They stare into each other's eyes and lean in for a kiss.

Sitting at the bottom of the slide, Brandon is holding Kelly close to him to keep her warm. Kelly is stroking Brandon's arm.

"Hmmm...this is nice," said Kelly with her eyes closed.

"It sure is," said Brandon.

"I never really got a chance to look at the moon anymore," said Kelly.

"Sometimes, it's important to take time to enjoy the things around you," smiled Brandon.

"It's so beautiful tonight," said Kelly.

"If only it could be as beautiful as you are every night," smiled Brandon.

Kelly looks at Brandon and smiles.

"I can't remember the last time I had so much fun in one day," smiled Kelly.

"And you I have you to thank for that," added Kelly.

"Me? What did I do?" asked Brandon.

"You stayed with me," replied Kelly smiling.

"I have time. Besides there's no one else I'd rather be with right now," smiled Brandon.

"I don't what is it but somehow I always have a smile on my face whenever I'm with you," smiled Kelly.

"Must be contagious because I have it too," smiled Brandon.

They kiss.

"I'm so glad you're moving in," said Kelly.

"Me too," said Brandon.

"While we're on the subject of moving in, there was that important thing that I wanted to talk to you about from before," said Brandon.

Kelly sits up from Brandon, turns around, and faces him.

"Right, what is it?" asked Kelly.

Brandon takes Kelly's hand and opens his mouth to speak….when he gets interrupted again.

"Hey you there. Is this your car?" asked someone who is standing by Kelly's car.

"Yes, I'm coming," replied Kelly who quickly goes to him.

Brandon who is disappointed, gets up, and slowly walks to the car.

"Are you Kelly Taylor?" asked the mechanic.

"Yes," replied Kelly.

"Sorry it took me so long to get here. This has been a very long day," said the mechanic.

"For us too," said Kelly as Brandon joins her.

The mechanic pops the car's hood and does a quick check on the engine and the parts.

"So what seems to be the problem?" asked Brandon.

"Probably nothing major. Something must've shorted. I'll see what I can do," replied the mechanic.

"Thanks," said Kelly.

Some time goes by and we see that Kelly is with the mechanic while Brandon is sitting on the bench.

"Thanks again," said Kelly.

"No problem. Thanks for waiting," said the mechanic.

"You're welcome," said Kelly.

The mechanic drives off.

Kelly turns around and notices that Brandon wasn't there. She was so busy talking to the mechanic that she didn't even notice that Brandon had walked off.

She sees that Brandon is on the bench and walks to him. Kelly notices that Brandon is very tired and anxious to go home.

Brandon looks up and sees Kelly approaching him.

"Hey, you alright?" asked Kelly who takes a seat on the bench next to Brandon.

"Yeah, I'm ok. How's the car?" asked Brandon.

"It's ready to go...if you are," replied Kelly.

"Yeah, let's just go," said Brandon who starts to get up from the bench.

Kelly holds onto Brandon's hand and pulls him back to the bench.

"What's wrong?" asked Kelly.

"What do you mean?" asked Brandon trying to hide that he's upset.

"I dunno. You've been on and off all day. One minute you're having fun and the next you seemed depressed," replied Kelly.

"This day hasn't really gone the way I had to hoping to go," said Brandon.

"What was supposed to happen?" asked Kelly.

"Well, I was supposed to pick you up from work and have a romantic lunch with just you," replied Brandon.

"Brandon, I had no idea. I wish you've would've said something," said Kelly.

"It's ok. I wanted it to be a surprise. I know I haven't been the best boyfriend to you lately. So I'd figure I should make it up to you," said Brandon.

"Thanks. That means a lot. You know it's not too late. We could still have a romantic dinner together," smiled Kelly.

"It's just not the same anymore," said Brandon.

"Brandon, things happen. We gotta make the most out of it," said Kelly who looks disappointed.

"Kelly, you don't understand. This was my chance to truly show you that I love you," said Brandon.

"You have...everyday...and every day after that," said Kelly.

"Kel, it was supposed to be perfect. After lunch, I was going to gaze into your eyes and give you something that I wanted to give you for the longest time," said Brandon.

"What is it?" asked Kelly.

"I know that we should look towards the future and not look back...but in this case, I just couldn't help myself. I know it's one of your favorites," said Brandon.

He reaches into his pocket and pulls out a black velvet jewelry box. He opens it to reveal an engagement ring.

Kelly looks surprised but tries to contain her emotions.

"You're wrong...it is my favorite," said Kelly.

"You kept the ring?" asked Kelly looking Brandon.

"Yes, I did," replied Brandon.

"Why?" asked Kelly.

"Because it was the last thing I had of you...and of us," replied Brandon.

"Kel, I missed you so much these past ten years," added Brandon.

"I missed you too," said Kelly.

"I love you and I always will...Will you marry me?" asked Brandon.

Kelly has tears in her eyes but smiles.

"Yes," said Kelly as she goes to Brandon.

They kiss. The sprinklers come on gets them both wet. But neither of them seemed to care.

Brandon realizes that they're wet and breaks the kiss.

"I think we better go somewhere else," said Brandon.

Brandon tries to get up from the bench but Kelly holds onto his hand, pulling him back. Brandon falls right into Kelly's arms. They passionately kiss again.

Kelly breaks the kiss.

"Brandon?" asked Kelly.

"Yeah?" asked Brandon.

"I'm all wet," replied Kelly smiling.

"Me too. C'mon. Let's go," smiled Brandon holding Kelly.

Brandon and Kelly open the door to Brandon's hotel suite, while kissing and holding each other. They head towards the bedroom but Kelly stops. Both of them are heavily breathing.

"What is it?" asked Brandon.

"Is it ok if I take a shower first," asked Kelly smiling.

"Sure...I'll get you a towel," replied Brandon smiling.

"Thanks," said Kelly leaning in for a quick kiss.

Kelly goes into the bathroom. Brandon goes to one of his moving boxes and dugs out a towel and shirt for Kelly.

Brandon casually walks into the bathroom.

"Here you go..." said Brandon as he sees Kelly standing before him naked.

"What do you think?" asked Kelly giving Brandon a small and tearful smile.

"I think I'm the luckiest guy in the world," replied Brandon walking towards Kelly.

Kelly smiles and they kiss.

"Join me?" asked Kelly.

Brandon smiles. He quickly takes off his wet clothes. They both step in the shower.

Kelly turns on the water. Brandon goes and kisses Kelly from behind. Kelly turns and smiles. They continue to smile at each other for a moment. Kelly puts her arms around Brandon and he pulls her closer to him. Kelly lets out a gasp. She holds Brandon's face and starts to caresses it. Brandon starts to kiss Kelly's neck and we see her close her eyes and smile.

After the shower, we see them going into the bedroom, still holding each other and kissing. The only thing covering the both of them is Brandon's towel.

They both sit on the bed and stare into each other's eyes.

"That was nice," smiled Brandon.

"I'll say," smiled Kelly.

"I don't think I've ever felt so clean and dirty at the same time," joked Brandon.

"Well, there's a first for everything," smiled Kelly.

Kelly takes Brandon's hand. Brandon notices and looks back at Kelly.

"I love you," said Kelly.

"I love you too," said Brandon.

Kelly takes her hands out from under, causing the towel to drop. She takes a hold of Brandon's face and they kiss. Brandon lightly pulls Kelly towards his lap.

They smile and kiss.

Brandon slowly tilt the both of them onto the bed and pulling the sheets over them.

Brandon looks into Kelly's eyes and puts his body on top of her. Kelly puts her arms on Brandon's shoulders, pulling him closer to her body.

They start to kiss and make love.

Afterward, Kelly is resting her head on Brandon's bare chest. Brandon kisses her head.

"Kel?" asked Brandon to see if Kelly is awake.

"Kel?" repeated Brandon.

"Five more minutes," said Kelly.

"Ok," said Brandon.

Brandon smiles when he sees that Kelly is wearing her engagement ring.

Kelly slowly wakes up and sees Brandon smiling at her.

"You've been looking at me the whole time?" asked Kelly smiling.

"Can you blame a guy for staring at someone as beautiful as you?" asked Brandon.

"No, I can't. But sometimes I think you're just being a little too nice," replied Kelly.

"I'm just telling you how I feel," said Brandon.

"And how do you feel exactly?" asked Kelly smiling.

"Like I don't want this day to end," replied Brandon.

"Well, I don't know about you, but I'm looking forward to tomorrow and every day after that," said Kelly.

"And why is that?" asked Brandon smiling.

"Because I'll be reminded how much I love you and how happy I am that we're going to spend the rest of our lives together," replied Kelly smiling.

Still on top of Brandon, Kelly leans up towards Brandon's face and they kiss.

Brandon puts his hands around Kelly as they continue to kiss.

Kelly rests her head on Brandon's chest again as he slowly strokes her body.

"You feel so good right now," smiled Kelly.

"I'm surprised I can barely move after our little workout we just had," said Brandon.

"It was pretty amazing," smiled Kelly.

"Yes, it was," smiled Brandon.

They look at each other. Kelly puts her hands on Brandon's face and starts to stroke it slowly.

Some time goes by and we see Brandon and Kelly grabbing the remaining stuff out of Brandon's room and leave together.

They arrive back at Kelly's house.

"Ready?" asked Kelly looking at Brandon.

"As ready as I'll ever be," replied Brandon.

"Let's go," said Kelly.

They get out of the car, walk up to the door. Silver notices them and opens the door.

"Hey guys," said Silver.

"Hey Silver," said Brandon and Kelly.

"Welcome back, Brandon," said Silver.

"Thanks Silver. Good to be back," said Brandon giving her a hug.

"Did you guys eat yet?" asked Kelly.

"Not yet...the pizza just came," replied Silver.

"Good, I'm starving," said Kelly.

"Me too," said Brandon.

"I'll grab Sammy," said Silver.

"Silver, do you mind if I do it?" asked Brandon.

"No, go ahead," replied Silver.

"Thanks," said Brandon as he goes to Sammy's room.

Brandon sees that Sammy is playing in his room. He quietly knocks on Sammy's door to get his attention. Sammy looks up and sees Brandon.

"Hey buddy," said Brandon.

"Hi daddy," said Sammy.

"Can I come in?" asked Brandon.

"Ok," replied Sammy.

Brandon walks into Sammy's room and sits with Sammy.

"So, what are you doing?" asked Brandon.

"Playing," replied Sammy.

"That's nice. But can I talk to you for a moment?" asked Brandon.

"Ok," said Sammy who looks kind of scared.

"Thanks. Sammy, I'm sorry about the other day. I was just in a really bad mood. But I shouldn't have yelled at you like that. Can you forgive me?" asked Brandon.

"Are you ok now?" asked Sammy.

"I'm more than ok," replied Brandon giving Sammy a smile.

"Good," smiled Sammy.

"Do you want to play later?" asked Sammy smiling.

"Sure," replied Brandon smiling.

They hug.

"Thank you Sammy," said Brandon.

"I love you, daddy," said Sammy.

"I love you too Sammy," said Brandon.

They break.

"C'mon. You must be hungry. The pizzas are here," said Brandon.

"Yay! I'm hungry," said Sammy.

"Me too," said Brandon.

They walk to the kitchen.

"Hi Mommy," said Sammy going to Kelly.

"Hi honey," said Kelly giving him a hug and a kiss.

"Is everything ok?" asked Kelly.

"Yes," replied Sammy who gives Kelly a nod.

"Good, because your daddy and I have a big announcement to make," said Kelly.

"Let me guess...you're pregnant," said Silver.

"No," said Brandon.

Brandon quickly looks at Kelly.

"No, I'm not pregnant...we're getting married," smiled Kelly.

"Oh my god...that's so great," smiled Silver who gives Kelly a hug.

"I knew you two were meant for each other," smiled Silver giving Brandon a hug.

"Thanks Silver for always being there for us," smiled Brandon.

"Anytime," smiled Silver.

"So honey, your daddy and I are getting married...what do you think?" asked Kelly to Sammy.

Sammy shrugs. Everybody laughs.

"What's going to happen?" asked Sammy who kinda looks confused.

Brandon leans down and gets in Sammy's line of sight.

"Well, your mom and I are having a wedding to celebrate us getting married," said Brandon who doesn't seemed to know how to explain it to Sammy.

"Like a party?" asked Sammy.

"Yeah, like a fancy party. We'll all get dressed up and your mom will be in beautiful white dress," replied Brandon.

Sammy turns and smiles at Kelly. Kelly smiles back at them.

Kelly goes to them.

"Honey, do you know why we're getting married?" asked Kelly to Sammy.

"Not really," replied Sammy.

"We're getting married because it's something that people do when they are in love and want to share that love with their friends and family including you," smiled Kelly.

"Oh ok," said Sammy.

"Good," smiled Kelly giving Sammy a hug.

Later that evening, we see Kelly carrying a load of laundry on the way to her room. She passes by Sammy's room and sees Brandon leaning to the side of the door, looking at Sammy sleeping.

Kelly smiles. She goes puts the load of laundry in her room. She comes out and sneaks up behind Brandon and puts her arms around him.

"Whoa...you scared me," said Brandon.

"Sorry. I just wanted to hold you but I didn't wanna ruin this moment," smiled Kelly.

"I could watch him sleep for hours," said Brandon.

"Me too. If you wait long enough, you'll see him do something funny with his nose. It's so cute," smiled Kelly.

"C'mon. Let's let him sleep," said Brandon.

Brandon silently closes Sammy's bedroom door.

They both climb into bed.

"What an interesting day," said Kelly.

"Yeah, it was one of my best," smiled Brandon.

"Mine too," smiled Kelly.

"So when do you think is a good time to tell everyone?" asked Brandon.

"I dunno," replied Kelly.

"You know I was thinking that we ought to take our time with this so that we're not rushing into anything," said Brandon.

"I couldn't agree more," said Kelly.

"But you do wanna marry me, right?" asked Brandon.

"Of course I do. I love you," replied Kelly.

"I love you too," said Brandon.

They kiss. Brandon puts his arm around Kelly and she leans in on top of Brandon.

"In fact, I'm already writing my vows in my head. See how much I wanna marry you?" asked Kelly smiling.

"I'm impressed. But I think you should know that I've already written mine," replied Brandon smiling.

"You did not," said Kelly looking at Brandon.

"Yes, I did. In fact, it was pretty easy," smiled Brandon.

"Why was that?" asked Kelly.

"Well, I just thought about how much I love you and why I want to spend the rest of my life with you and the words just fell into place," replied Brandon.

"Good. That's how I'm writing mine too," said Kelly.

"You know, I'm really happy that we're getting another chance to get it right," said Brandon.

"Me too," said Kelly looking up at Brandon.

They kiss.

"Welcome home," said Kelly.

"Thanks. So what do you want to do on my first night in OUR room?" asked Brandon.

"I just want you to hold me," replied Kelly.

"I can do that only if you promise to keep me warm," said Brandon.

"It's a deal," said Kelly smiling.

Brandon leans to his corner and turns off the light.

They get comfortable and drift off to sleep.

Coming Next – Kelly gets upset when Brandon tells Jim and Cindy about their engagement without her.
