Brenda raced out of the student union. She could bare see thanks to the tears pouring out of her eyes. She couldn't believe her father would embarrass her like his. Even if her parents did not like the idea of her and Stewart getting married, to drag Dylan into this was beyond humiliating.

"Brenda, wait." She heard from behind her. She quickened her pace not bothering to turn around, knowing who was following her.

She started to run towards the bus stop, hoping he would get the message and stop chasing her. She could hear his footsteps getting louder on the pavement, slowly catching up. Damn her small legs.

"Wait. Let me explain." He said finally reaching her. He put one hand on his hip trying to catch his breath and the other wrapped around her forearm so she couldn't move.

"Back there, it all came out wrong. I was meeting your Dad about my trust and he asked me how I felt about your engagement. I mean technically yes, we were talking about you, but no, your parents didn't put me up to this. I care about you…I just wanted to talk to you on my own to try and figure out where you head is at. You can't really be serious about marrying this clown."

Brenda scoffed and kicked the ground. "Stewart loves me, he says he wants to be with me forever."

"Yeah well Stewart always had a lot to say." Dylan scoffed thinking about Stewart and tried not to fly off the handle.

Stewart Carson was such a scum, it made him sick that Brenda couldn't see through his act. "Do you even know this guy Bren? Do you even know what he's about. I can't see you being with a guy like that." He said.

"A guy like what?" Brenda snapped, "He's good to me Dylan. I get it you guys have a past, but that's just it…its in the past. He loves me Dylan, he says he wants to marry me! Why can't you be happy for me?"

"I am happy for you." He exclaimed, "But I can't stand by and not say anything when I think you're making a huge mistKe. I don't want to see you ruin your life by marrying some coke head new money rich boy who's going to steam roll all over you your whole life. God, I don't get it. What do you even see in that guy?"

"Because he picked me!" Brenda shouted, throwing her hands up, "He wants ME and no one else.

Dylan felt his breath catch in his throat suddenly unsure what to say. It felt like the ultimatum Brenda and Kelly had put him through senior year was going to haunt him for the rest of his life.

At the time he didn't think being with Kelly would have affected Brenda so heavily, but he was wrong. In his mind there wasn't even a choice, he just knew he wanted a change and Kelly just happened to be there. He could only stare at Brenda in shock as she continued to yell at him in the middle of the abandoned student parking lot.

"When it came down to making a choice, he chose and it was me. I know choosing to be with me may be a foreign concept to you Dylan, but Stewart knows what he wants and he wants me to be his wife. And so what…he has some flaws, don't we all? What's that saying, he who lives in a glass house shouldn't throw stones! I cant believe you after everything you put me through you can't even pretend to be happy for me?" She said turning away from him and walking towards the bus stop.

"Aw, come on don't give me that!" He snapped, finally loosing his temper. "Would you come back here and stop running away from me?" he yelled chasing after her for the second time that night.

He caught up with her, and pulled her towards his parked Porsche and pushed her against it. He leaned down so they were making eye contact. "Sounds like you're marrying him just because he asked. You haven't said once that you love this guy. That's how I know you're having doubts."

Brenda opened her mouth to reply, but he cut her off, "And if were talking about choices, you made a choice for us at the beginning of the summer, not me. I may not have liked it, but I accepted being your friend because that is what you wanted!"

She once again was at a loss for words. They were both breathing heavily, so close to one another she could feel the heat coming off of his body and she was sure he could feel hers. She shuddered as he stepped even closer to her, trapping her body against the car and himself.

"What are you even saying right now." Brenda asked looking up at him.

He was so close it was making her head spin. He ran a hand through her hair and the familiar sensation was sending her into over drive. She whimpered as he removed his hand and set it on her waist.

"I've seen that look before." He whispered in her ear.

She gasped aloud thinking about how she said those same words to him earlier this summer. She opened her mouth to answer and before she could blink his lips were on hers and they were kissing.
