Shadowwolf:  Thanks so much you guys! *big hugs* It's cold here. *shivers*

Brad:  That came out of nowhere. *sips coffee* Completely off topic.

Shadowwolf:  I do that a lot. ^_^ Well, this is the last chapter, so I hope it's okay!  I don't quite know who to dedicate this to.  How about all of my buddies here at FF.net, because…well, I had a good reason, but I forgot.  BECAUSE YOU'RE MY BUDDIES!!!!!

Naomi:  O.o

Leena:  *snickers* Oh Naomi…

Naomi:  What?

Leena:  This isn't gonna be a-- *Shadowwolf quickly ties and gags her so she doesn't reveal the surprise ending*

Shadowwolf:  Well… ^_^;; Let's get to the story, shall we?  Disclaimer:  *sigh* You know I don't own anything.  ENJOY!

NEW LIFE CH 2,

SURPRISE!

            "What about me and Naomi?"

            "Well, are you guys real close?"

            "No," Brad said, "why?"

            "I can make you that way." Leena trailed off.

            "Thanks Leena, but I think we can handle it on our own." Brad said as he sipped his coffee.

            "Okay," Leena said, disappointed.

            "And Leena," Brad got her attention before she walked off, "Why did you wink at me earlier today?"

            "Um, uh, eh," Leena stuttered, "How can I say this?" She was turning very red, "I guess I better just say it.  Because I like you!" Leena said, relieved.  "I have a crush on you okay, so go tell Bit and Naomi and all your friends, that Leena the Cold-Hearted likes someone.  Go ahead, I don't care." She was very embarrassed.  Brad set down his cup of coffee and stood up next to her.  She turned her back to him and he sighed.  Leena felt his hand on her shoulder, and he turned her around.

            "I'm not like that, I don't tell people's personal info to everyone." Brad said softly.  They stared into each other's eyes, then moved slowly closer together. (NO!  Don't do it!  He, he…) As they kissed, Brad wrapped his arms around Leena and she did the same to him.  When they pulled away, Leena looked at him and said, "Don't tell me that just happened."

            "Tell me about it." Brad responded.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

            Brad and Leena looked around to make sure no one was near.  The coast was clear, luckily.

            "How will we tell them?" Leena asked.

            "I don't know, I guess we'll just tell them." Brad said.

            "What about Naomi?"
            "That will be hard."

            "Don't you like her?"

            "Not like that."

            "Then why did you blush when I was teasing you about her?"

            "I was blushing because of you."

Shadowwolf:  *sniff, sniff* WAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!

Bit:  Oh come on!  That wasn't touching!

Shadowwolf:  No, *sniff* it's just that, well…I…I………I WROTE A BRAD/LEENA!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Leena:  So?  You know that would never /ever/ happen anyway.

Shadowwolf:  That doesn't fix it.  Well, please don't kill me for writing a Br/L. *sniff* I don't know what got into me…

Brad:  Certainly not sense.

Shadowwolf:  What do you mean?

Brad:  I think someone needs to knock some sense into you. *punches Shadowwolf*

Shadowwolf:  Owie…thanks Brad, I needed that.  Now I have your fist permanently imprinted on my forehead.  Cool!  Well, thanks for reading!  HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
