Chloe awoke to the smell of bacon cooking. She yawned and tried stretched a
little deciding she was hungry. Opening her eyes she looked around,
realizing she was not in her room, she then realized that she was also not
alone. Brady's arms held her to his chest. "Brady" she tried to move or
turn, but he only tightened his grip on her. "Brady" she called again,
this time a little louder.
"What" he groggily answered holding her even more tightly. "Wake up Brady Black, or I'll have to get a pitcher of water and make you get up" she threatened, teasing him. Brady groaned "I don't want to wake up" he grumbled "because that means I have to let go of you."
Chloe smiled at his words, a pink tint to her cheeks "Yeah, my parents would love to find us here this morning." She said non-chalantly. Brady sat up instantly, nearly knocking Chloe off the couch in the process "Morning?" he responded quickly "my dad is going to kill me."
"I already called and told them you were here with us" they heard a voice from the hall. "Craig" Chloe began, unsure of what would happen next. "I..a..we, just fell asleep" she protested. Craig chuckled slightly, "Yeah, I know" he answered "I checked on you last night. I just didn't have to heart to wake either of you."
Embarrassed, Chloe buried her face in a pillow. She heard Brady say something "what?" she asked looking up to see that Craig was gone. Brady grinned at her, "hiding?" he chuckled. She nodded "I cant wait to see what Nancy says." Finally awake, Brady enhaled the smell of bacon wafting in from the kitchen "ummmm bacon" he spoke dreamily. Chloe laughed at the look on his face "that is all you think of" she sat up next to him.
"That isn't ALL I think of" he corrected starring into her eyes. His baby blues bright with something Chloe didn't care to define. Chloe swallowed a lump in her throat as he pulled her lips within inches of his. "My parents" Chloe whispered. "Are in the kitchen" Brady finished pulling her even closer.
"Breakfast" Nancy called from the doorway. She didn't care what Craig thought, she was a teenager once, she knew all about hormones and how fast they can get out of control.
Brady and Chloe broke apart when Nancy came into the room "Come on get it while its hot" she sing sanged. Chloe laughed at the expression on Brady's face "Come on big boy, better hurry before Craig eats all the bacon."
AT THE BLACK PENTHOUSE
Belle, John and Marleana sat at the table having breakfast "Where's Brady?" Belle asked noticing her big brother wasn't eating with them. "He is at Chloe's" John answered "having breakfast with them."
"This early" Marleana asked "I didn't even hear him leave this morning." John grinned, "He didn't leave this morning" he responded.
Belle smiled "You mean?" she drawled "he stayed at Chloe's last night?" Belle couldn't wait to see Chloe again, that girl had some questions to answer.
John nodded "Craig called this morning, said Brady came over with some movies after midnight Chloe and Brady fell asleep watching them."
"Oh really" Belle raised her eyebrows.
Marleana looked at John "And Craig was okay with this?" she asked. John nodded "Yes, he said he kept an eye on them. He said they were talking and watching the movie."
"My brother and my best friend, who would've thought.?" Belle said out loud. "Actually Chloe and Brady spent a lot of time together while you guys were in Puerto Rico this summer" John told her. "I didn't figure it would be too long before sparks flew."
"You mean Brady and Chloe really had fun together?" Belle questioned. "Yeah, they had dinner at Tuscany's, went bowling, he even took her when he went to buy his jeep" John told her.
"That's good for Brady, but poor Phillip" Belle sympathized. "Why poor Phillip?" Marleana asked. "He really wants Chloe back" Belle answered. "It seems to me that Phillip lost that right the night of the Last Blast" John pointed out, "Wasn't it Brady who ran after and her, while Phillip ran away from her."
"Well, yeah" Belle nodded "but he admitted it was a mistake." Marleana nodded "A mistake that cost him Chloe" she pointed out.
AT THE WESLEY HOUSE
"I thought you had that breakfast today? Chloe looked at Craig and Nancy. "Actually, it is a luncheon and we're not eating until 1:00" Nancy responded. "Anyway, I was hungry," Craig added.
"Me too, Brady agreed." Nancy and chloe glanced at each other and rolled their eyes, "Men!" Chloe shook her head laughing. "Okay, you two go away" Nancy shuffled the guys out of the kitchen, we have to clean up."
Craig left but Brady stayed behind to help. "I'll help do dishes, you cooked" he told Nancy taking the dish towel from her hand. Nancy looked surprised, but smiled at him as she walked out of the kitchen. "Earning brownie points Black?" Chloe teased. "No" he chuckled "just doing what I have to at home. Besides this way I get you alone" he grinned kissing her lightly.
"I need to go home and change clothes" Brady looked at his jeans and shirt. "You need to take a shower to" Chloe chuckled holding her nose. "Oh really?" he raised his eyebrows pinning her against the counter. Chloe laughed at the look on his face "I'm not the only one Lane" he countered lowering his lips to hers. Chloe wrapped her arms around his neck as he pulled her closer.
"Ok, I am going home to change clothes" he broke apart from the kiss, "and take a shower" Chloe reminded him. "And take a shower" he agreed. "After that want to go do something today?" he asked
"Like what?" Chloe asked "I don't know, go to Dot Com and hang out, swing in the park, I just want to be with you" he said.
Chloe walked Brady to the door "I'll be back in an hour or so" he told her "By the way, you need a shower too" he grinned dropping a quick kiss on her lips before leaving the house.
"What" he groggily answered holding her even more tightly. "Wake up Brady Black, or I'll have to get a pitcher of water and make you get up" she threatened, teasing him. Brady groaned "I don't want to wake up" he grumbled "because that means I have to let go of you."
