There was a stray piece of hair and Bradin carefully tucked it behind her ear. She nuzzled his hand softly.
Bradin settled himself beside her bed. She had asked him not to leave her alone. And he had promised to stay with her as long as she wanted him. That was one promise that he was going to keep.

Nikki tried to be as quiet as she could as she headed for the back door. Then she hit that damn squeaky floor board. She would have to remember to avoid it next time.
"Where do you think you're going wearing that?" Ava asked as she stepped out of the kitchen.
Ava looked Nikki up and down. She didn't know what surprised her more, the heavy make up, the tight mini skirt or the dangerously low dippping shirt.
"What this?" Nikki replied.
"Yes that" Ava said.
"Well you see, the skirt is actually a a skort" Nikki said as she flipped up her skirt to show the shorts.
Ava didn't look impressed, but Nikki continued anyways.
"And this shirt...well this shirt is no worse that a bathing suit" Nikki said.
"Go upstairs and change" Ava instructed.
Nikki moaned as she turned and stomped back up the stairs.
"That's much better" Ava said when Nikki came back down a few minutes later.
"Happy to oblige" Nikki smiled and then she headed out the door.
Little did Ava know that Nikki had just put something on top of her other clothes and she was planning to change right back, as soon as she was out of sight.

"It's about time you showed up" Amber said.
"Sorry, I had a run in with my aunt" Nikki replied.
"Did she tell you to change?" Amber asked.
"Yea" Nikki replied. How did Amber know?
"But you just changed back once you left" Amber said.
"How did you..." Nikki started, but Amber cut her off.
"My parentals used to be the same way, but they're used to it now. I left the house in this.." Amber said as she did a little twirl. She was wearing a skirt shorter than Nikki's and a tight white t-shirt that showed her black bra underneath.
"...And they didn't even try to stop me" Amber finished.
"I don't think my aunt will ever be that cool" Nikki said.
"Just give her time" Amber replied.

All of the schools had a stat holiday for a week and Bradin spent the whole time with Abby. She was getting better, but she would still flinch away when Bradin tried to hug her or touch her in anyway.
"I brought candy and movies" Bradin called into Abby's house when he walked in the front door.
"I'll be down in a minute" Abby called from upstairs.
"I'll wait in the living room" Bradin said as he headed for the couch.
"You are my favorite person in the whole world" Abby said as she plopped herself down on the couch beside Bradin and grabbed the bag of candies that Bradin had brought.
"Glad to know I'm appreciated" Bradin replied.
Abby smiled. She looked happy for the first time in a week.
"So I also brought some movies" Bradin said.
"Surprise me with one" Abby replied.
"Okay" Bradin said as he got up and went to the tv. He popped in a movie and sat back down on the couch.

Starting from the previews until the end of the movie Abby slowly moved closer and closer to Bradin. By the time the credits were rolling up the screen Abby was nuzzled into Bradin's side.
"Are you a virgin?" Abby asked out of the blue.
"Ummm........I..." Bradin started.
"Just tell me the truth" Abby said.
"No" Bradin replied.
"Who was she?" Abby asked.
"Her name was Sara and I spent most of the summer with her" Bradin replied.
"Where is she now?" Abby asked.
"Her parents sent her away to this strick boarding school" Bradin replied.
"Was it special?" Abby asked.
"I guess....I was sort of fast" Bradin replied.
"That's okay buddy. I'm sure you'll hold on longer next time" Abby laughed as she patted him on the belly.
Bradin rolled his eyes "That's not what I meant" he sighed.
"I know, but I just couldn't resist" Abby laughed so hard that her eyes were watering.
"As long as you get a good laugh at my expense" Bradin said sarcasticly.
Abby kept laughing.
"It's nice to see you happy" Bradin said.
"It's nice to be happy" Abby replied.
"We have school tommorrow. Are you gonna go?" Bradin questioned.
"Yes, I'm not going to let Mike rule my life. Believe me when I say that he's not even on my rador anymore" Abby replied.
