Author's Note: Hi guys, just a heads up, this is a Detentionaire slash fic starring the Serpent, Lee Ping and other characters from the series. Mainly this story revolves around the Serpent and Lee, where the both of them are brothers and that Serpent's name is Chase (because honestly, he looks like a Chase to me).

Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Detentionaire characters mentioned in this story, nor do I own any music that I may mention either as the story progresses. Without further a due, let's begin.

Chapter 6: Bittersweet Love Affair

Previously on the Serpent and the Tazelwurm;

"Looks like you won this round, honey" whispered Mrs. Ping as she kissed his forehead lovingly.

Mr. Ping snorted, then continued sleeping.

At times like this, it was nice to be around the people you love, so Mrs. Ping joined them on the floor and slept together with Taz, Priscilla, and her husband. Her mind slipping into slumber as the soothing sound of her husband snore filled the room.

?:? pm: ? – Unknown Room

His motionless body began to stir a bit as he tried his best to steady himself from his position on the cold hard floor. His blurry vision searched around the room for his missing glasses, thankfully they were on a nightstand beside a glass of Green Apple Splat and a folded note addressed to him.

He got off the floor and walked over to the nightstand, he took a generous sip of the soda and read the folded note. He frowned at the message and proceeded to rip the note in half. He examined the room around him, it appears to be a holding cell with padded walls.

Could this be a nut house? Hah! A pun!

It seems the room hasn't been in use for a while, there were cobwebs and dust-bunnies gathered on the ceiling and the corners of the room.

"Urgh… remind me to write a complain letter to the manager here"

"Don't need to sugar cube, the staff has arrived"

The man turned around to find Barrage walking over to his cell while holding a steak to the back of his head.

"Need I ask?"

"I had a little "dispute" with the upper management"

"Figures, now answer me this. Why am I here, exactly?"

"That's a need to know information there sonny, and you do NOT need to know!" yelled Barrage as he repositioned the steak in his grasp.

"…Interesting. So tell me, what is the upper management planning exactly?"

Barrage gave an evil grin and said.

"Wouldn't you like to know?" growled Barrage lowly.

5:35pm: The Hydra – The Serpent's Office

The tapping of keyboards filled the room as Chase was finishing his work for the evening, he had just sent two letters and a notice to his comrades and hope that preparations are in motion. He turned his gaze to the sleeping form on his sofa and a warm smile spread across his face.

Lee yawned and slowly blinked the sleep away from his eyes, he stretched his arms up in the air and rolled his body to the right. Once he saw his brother he gave a small smile and tried to cover his face with the fleece blanket. Chase chuckled at his antic and made his way across the room towards his brother.

"Good morning, sunshine. Time to wake up" said Chase as he stroked Lee's body.

"Mmmmm…"

"C'mon, don't make me tickle you" purred Chase as he nuzzled Lee's hair lovingly. Lee chuckled and got himself up from the sofa while sporting a messy bed-hair. Chase gave Lee a small peck on the cheek before telling him to readjust his clothes before they head home.

"Whose fault do you think it was for getting me to look like this?" snorted Lee as he combed his hair with his fingers.

"Hmm, cold it be the same devilishly handsome person who'll be carrying you home?" purred Chase as he wrapped a possessive arm around Lee's small frame.

Lee playfully smacked his brother's hand at the thought of him carrying him home. How will they ever explain to mom and dad he wondered?

"What time is it?"

Chase looked at his wrist watch and told Lee it was already 5:40pm.

"Urgh… Looks like I'll be a no show to Brandy's party"

Chase quirked an eyebrow at that.

"The girl in pink is throwing a party?"

Lee nodded, as he put on his pants and shirt.

"Yea, Cam said it was the party of the century and I promised him I'll go but thanks to you"

Chase smiled and shrugged his shoulders.

"I can't go"

"Why not?"

"Trust me, limping at a party while bracing your backside. People are gonna start talking Chase" said Lee as he tried his best to walk towards the other side of the room, but his legs gave up on him too soon and he fell back on his side of the sofa, while groaning in pain. Chase chuckled and gently rubbed the small of Lee's back tenderly.

"I'm sorry you can't go, at least you'll spend the night watching awesome movies with me about ninjas and assassins" now it was Lee's turn to quirk an eyebrow at his brother.

"You have a weird obsession with ninjas don't you?"

"Not really, I just love seeing slender guys in skin tight disguises"

"Perv…"

5:10pm: Martinez Residence – Cam's Room

Cam just got out of his bathroom from his warm bath and was now going through his closet to pick the most party-awesome outfit to go with his el-presidente swag which he will be flaunting at his chika's party. It's gonna be off the hook, and he's gonna look fly with his first lady by his side.

Hmm, I wonder if Brandy's party has a theme.

His phone began to ring and the caller ID was Lee's, he picked up his phone and accepted the call.

"Sup Lee! You ready to blow your socks off at Brandy's tonight?" asked Cam who was over the moon with the awesome party happening at Brandy's.

"Yeah, about that. Sorry Cam, but it seems I won't be making it to the party" answered Lee sadly.

"What?! Dude, why?! This is like 'THE' party of the century yo! We're talking about chikas, chips, dips, and popularity boost here. Chips, dips, and chikas are gonna be there. Please come for the chikas, hombre!" whined Cam over the phone.

The caller changed from Lee to Chase, and Chase was not subtle in telling Cam the reason why Lee can't attend the party.

"I'm sorry, but Lee can't make it to the 'party of the century'. He's in no condition to walk at the moment if you catch my drift" said Chase suggestively.

Cam's face became as bright as a tomato, over the phone Lee was scolding his brother and a smack was heard over the line.

"LEE?! WHAT HAPPENED?!" asked Cam urgently.

"Don't listen to him Cam! I can't walk because I – er, sprained my ankle!" answered Lee quickly.

Cam immediately calmed down and gave a relieved sigh.

"Oh, thank Dios! Well, not the sprained part, but the whole not walking and your bro and- Yea, just um… forget about it"

"Got it, why don't you and Holg go ahead?" Lee asked.

"Oh yeah, you didn't know. You see, Holg-" Cam's line was cut short because there was a sharp static going on at the other end of the line and he decided to end the call there. He'll just have to make due with sending Lee a text or video chat about Holger's condition.

Poor Holger.

I wonder how he's feeling.

Cam puts on his undershirt and boxers and made way towards his computer, he logged in to his user ID and began his video chat to Holger. Within 15 minutes the salute of the Swedish foreign exchange student came to view and he was looking slightly better than before. His eyes were still red and puffy though.

"Hey buddy, you okay?" asked Cam calmly.

Cam knew that Holger was in no condition to speak at the moment, but it couldn't hurt to check up on him and see whether he was feeling a little better.

"(Sniff) Ja, Holger be feeling a little bit better. Papa made Holger some braised narwhal liver with fried aardvark to make Holger feeling happy (sniff)" said Holger as he blew his nose with a new sheet of tissue from the dispenser.

"Hey, that's good ese. You think you're up for some down time at Brandy's later? It's the party of the century and I know how much you'd like to bust some of your Norwegian funk on the dance floor yo" said Cam as he tried to persuade Holger to go to the party. In hopes of cheering his friend up, of course.

And… maybe help him in not being awkward around Brandy.

Holger wiped his tear with his bathrobe and shook his head.

"Holger is sorry friend Cam, Holger not feeling the mood to dance tonight… or the nights after (cries)" weep Holger as he ended the video-chat too soon for Cam's liking.

"Wait Holg! Aie, esto no es bueno en absolute… Now what am I gonna do? No Lee, no Holg… I guess tonight el presidente will be going solo, huh?"

Cam walked over to his table to retrieve his watch, the party will start in 2 hours so he has plenty of time to prepare for the party and get his mojo on.

But, without his bros he's all alone.

God, he hates being alone.

Especially in a crowd of people who never noticed him till he became the student president.

Wonder what Lee's up to.

Back with Chase & Lee at the Hydra

Chase has finished packing his documents in his briefcase, and was turning off the lights of his office. Lee retrieved the bike's key and the duo made their way to the elevator.

"Feeling better? If not, I could always call for my guards to bring up a wheelchair" offered Chase.

"Pfft, no thanks. I don't need to be treated like a damsel in distress, besides, I can walk just fine" answered Lee as they made their way into the elevator.

"So you say, but I wouldn't mind treating you as my damsel in distress" purred Chase as he wrapped an arm around his Lee's waist.

"Oh, quit it, you'll traumatize your guards if they see you like this"

"Please, with me as their boss, being traumatized is part of the job" answered Chase cockily.

"You're a sick man you know that?"

"So I've been told by everyone"

The moment they've reached Ground Floor, two guards arrived to escort their boss and his brother to the exit where his bike was waiting. Both men bowed at the two siblings as they made off.

Lee wrapped his arms securely around his brother as his brother picked up the speed on the road, a turn here and a traffic light there and they were already at their neighborhood cul-de-sac.

"We're almost home, want me to make you anything for our date?"

Lee chuckled in his helmet.

"If we're at home, it wouldn't even be called a date Chase"

"Fair enough, but any requests? Popcorn, pasta, or pudding perhaps?"

"Hmm, popcorn sounds good. If we're gonna watch a marathon of ninja movies we're gonna need popcorn and soda"

"Luckily I bought some microwave popcorn and two big bottles of soda last weekend, wouldn't be a complete movie experience without them" said Chase as he drove his bike into the garage and brought it to a halt.

"You're always a few steps ahead, what's your secret?" Lee asked, as he unbuckled his helmet.

"That's a secret, but if you beg~" Lee didn't let his brother finish his sentence, he elbowed him in the gut and walked ahead of him towards the front door, he unlocked it and greeted the people inside.

"Mom? Dad? We're home! Taz, here boy" whistled Lee as he called for his pet tazelwurm.

In no time the red reptilian slithered down the flight of steps and towards its master. Taz rubbed his head against Lee's leg and rolled around, as he demanded to be rubbed on the belly.

There was a yawn and a creak of footsteps coming from the top floor, Alfred and Sue made their way down the stairs to greet their sons. Alfred was looking very tired while his wife fixed her bed-hair.

"Welcome back, my boys. Hope you two had a fun time at work, we know we have" said Alfred as he petted Taz on the head.

"Remember, it's not all about fun, it's important to practice workplace etiquette as well as being able to gain experience for future job applications and promotions" reminded Mrs. Ping as she gave both her boys loving hugs and kisses.

"Yea, we did mom and dad, hope Taz and Priscilla didn't cause you both trouble while we're out"

"Oh Taz and Priscilla? They were like little angels, especially when I was in charge" said Alfred proudly.

Mrs. Ping rolled her eyes and told them that dinner will be ready in a few minutes, they should go wash-up first before having dinner. Taz followed Lee up to his room, while Chase and his father talked about their day at home and at work. Just another day at the Ping Residence.

?:? pm: ? – Unknown Room

Lynch kicked his legs back and forth as he sat alone on his comfy bed, in his padded room, in an unknown location with an unimpressed ex-lieutenant keeping an eye on him.

"Will you quit your leg-swinging for 5-minutes, maggot?! It's annoying!"

"But I'm boooreeeddd~~"

"Then count the speck on the ceiling in your head or sleep, it's enough trouble getting you here now I'm stuck babysitting you till I get the 'call' from above? This is an all new low for me"

"You mean a call from God?"

"No you little ninny-head! From the upper management!"

Lynch quirked his eyebrow and cocked his head to the right.

"What are they gonna do?"

"How would I know, I've just been assigned to keep you shut and it's getting hard when you won't stop your whining"

"Well, I wouldn't whine if you'd entertain me" huffed Lynch as he crossed his arms to his chest and slouched.

"Well then, let me go over to my locker and put on my fancy party hat and clown makeup and juggle a ton of bowling pins over my head while you have a fun time"

"Will you?!" asked Lynch excitedly.

"Of course not! Haven't you ever heard of sarcasm you nutcase?"

"Ooh, that's a doozie! My turn to tell a joke, knock knock"

Barrage rolled his eyes but nonetheless answered Lynch's lame knock-knock joke.

"What?"

Lynch frowned and told Barrage he's supposed to say 'Who's there'.

"Fine… Who's there?"

"Miss"

"Miss who?"

"Missing something?"

It was Barrage's turn to quirk his eyebrow, he checked his pocket and breast pocket and was shocked to find his phone missing. Before he could demand Lynch to return his phone to him, Lynch's right arm shot forward and stunned Barrage on the neck. He had a hand-taser! How did Barrage not notice that?!

With the electric current of 1,000,000 volts flowing through his body, Barrage jerked back and forth uncontrollably and collapsed on the floor while twitching in agony. As a human-cyborg lieutenant, his body was a victim of electrical conductivity. Lynch checked to make sure he was completely unconscious before he pulled out the general's phone from his back pocket.

"Sorry amigo, but I've been itching to make a phone call to a good ol' friend of mine. So stick around for a bit, not like you're going anywhere anyway" chuckled Lynch as he laughed maniacally at Barrage's unconscious body on his floor.

Time to make a house call.

6:30pm: Martinez Residence – Cam's Room

After double-checking his appearance in the mirror, Cam stuffed his phone and wallet in his pocket and ate two tablets of peppermint to ensure he doesn't have bad breath while he's grooving with his first lady. He made his way to the kitchen to tell his mom that he's off to Brandy's for the party.

"Camillio Esmereldo Martinez, don't forget to bring a gift for your girlfriend, and make sure you wear deodorant" reminded his mother as she fixed his hair and gave him a peck on the forehead.

"Mom… That's embarrassing" whined Cam as he struggled under his mother's hold.

"Pues discúlpeme si soy preocupación por la primera cita de mi niño"

"Ma, it's not a date. Brandy's just having a house-party and everyone's invited, I'm just going there to give her support and whatever help she needs"

"Oh mi niño, for now it'll just be supporting your special lady friend at her party and wouldn't you know it you'll be walking down the aisle with her in a church one day" said Cam's mother as she smothered her little boy between her bosoms.

"Ma! Por favour, I can't breathe!" gasped Cam.

"Oh you, just behave yourself and remember your flowers and candies" said his mother as she retrieve her car keys.

"It's all with me, but what about Angelina? We can't leave her alone while we're both out" asked Cam.

"What are you talking about? Your sister is coming along, I can't leave her at home alone"

"Yeah!" cried Angelina as she jumped from her seat excitedly.

"WHAT?!"

"She'll just accompany me sending you to the party, and be nice to your little sister"

Angelina puckered her lips and made kissy faces at Cam, who groaned in embarrassment. Seriously? They can't leave her with a sitter?

"Cam and Brandy sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G~" singed Angelina as their mother reversed her car from the driveway.

"Angelina I swear if you sing that song when we reach the party I'm gonna-"

"Camillio Esmereldo Martinez! Be nice to your baby sister or no party!" warned Mrs. Martinez as she drove her car to Brandy's. Cam pouted, but listened to his mother, Angelina smirked at him and stuck her tongue out childishly.

'Little sisters can be really evil sometimes' thought Cam as they made their way to Brandy's apartment.

6:35pm: Ping Residence – Kitchen

"Mmmm~ that was lovely dear, you've outdone yourself once again" complimented Alfred as he pats his belly in satisfaction while leaning back into his seat.

"Oh stop it you, you know it was just simple meatloaf and chicken noodle casserole" said Mrs. Ping who was blushing profusely.

"Dad wasn't kidding mom, it was delicious" said Lee truthfully while Chase nodded in agreement.

"Thank you Lee, that's really sweet all of you now come help me clean up the table and wash the dishes"

"Alright"

Lee followed his mother to the sink to wash the dirty dishes while Alfred was in charge of wiping the clean plates with a terry cloth, and Chase was left to rearrange the seats and clear the table of any crumbs or mess.

Once they're done, Mr and Mrs Ping made their way upstairs while the two brothers made their way to the living room to look through the collection of action movies they have. There's 'Die Hard 2', 'Flying Fists of Pain', 'Die Hard: Hardest Death', and many more. They've decided to watch 'The Last Assassin' and made the necessary preparations for their movie night; snacks, drinks, fluffy pillows, and a warm fleece blanket for comfort.

"If you ever get scared you can always curl-up against me" said Chase as he nuzzled Lee's head lovingly.

"And if you ever get scared, feel free to call the 911 helpline" said Lee jokingly as he turned on the television and started the movie.

7:15pm: Silver's Apartment – The Lounge Room

The beat of the song being played by the Dudes of Darkness filled the room as teens moved to the music while some decided to take the opportunity to show off newly learnt dance-moves to others, and failing miserably. Cam walked past the sea of teens in search of his chika while protecting his bouquet of flowers and candies. Dudes were fist pumping the air and girls were lounging around looking all dolled up for the party. Man, Brandy wasn't kidding when she said it's gonna be the party of the century!

At the corner of his eyes Cam spotted a familiar brunette wearing a fuchsia party dress with her hair tied into a loose bun. It was Brandy! And she was looking… Beautiful. Cam didn't know what's gotten into him, his heart was racing, his hands were getting sweaty, and he's having shortness of breath.

'Stay calm, stay calm' chanted Cam as he tried his best to remain cool in the sea of teens. He snapped out of his thoughts when a firm hand placed itself on his shoulder, as he turned around he met the gaze of Biffy T. Goldstein, who gave him a friendly smile.

"Hey Cam, glad you could make it" cried Biffy.

"Thanks! You on your own man?" asked Cam.

"No, I came with Kimmie. Where's Lee and Holg?" asked Biffy while he looked around for his best buddy and the Norwegian dance king. Cam sighed and told him that they couldn't come, for reasons unknown.

"Aw, bummer. Sorry about that man, but at least you've got me and Brandy" said Biffy reassuringly.

"Yeah, have you seen Brandy? She's looking good tonight"

"Oh yeah, she looks really pretty in that dress"

Biffy looked over his shoulder and saw Brandy talking with the two other members of the Glamazons. He looked back at Cam and asked him if he wanted to join him on the dance floor.

"Nah, it's alright, ese. I'm just gonna freshen up for a bit, I wanna give Brandy these before I ask her for a dance" Cam showed Biffy his gifts for Brandy and Biffy smiled and gave him an understanding nod.

"Kay, if you need me, I'll be at the dance floor" said Biffy as he walked away.

Cam sighed and made way to the nearest washroom he could find, he has to keep it together, he was the president! Well, student body president to be precise, but a president nonetheless! He gave his face a cold wash in the sink and checked his teeth if there's any leftover mint tablets between his teeth. Nope, he's perfect. Brandy's perfect. And tonight is gonna be just perfect. He searched for a dry cloth in the washroom, but couldn't find one. So, he walked over to the bathtub in hopes he could find a dry towel instead. As he pulled the shower curtain away, he let loose a shrill scream.

"AHHHHH! Chaz?! Is that you?!" asked Cam as he looks at Chaz wide-eyed. Chaz stopped whatever he was doing and turned around to meet Cam. Chaz looked as if he was a deer in headlights, he was flushed red and his hair was a mess. Heaven forbid for that to happen.

"Mr President, I can explain!" said Chaz as he pulled himself together.

"You were in the tub?!" Cam was flabbergasted!

"Cam listen"

"Dude! You gave me a heart-attack!"

"Cam look can we-"

"Dude! You were in the tub and making out with-"

"…"

"…"

"…"

"… Hey Chaz"

"Yes?"

"Is that Stepak between your thighs?"

"… Maybe" answered Chaz coolly.

"… Why is he wearing Tina's clothes?" asked Cam curiously.

Chaz did not answer that question, instead he slowly pulled the shower curtain between him and Cam, and likewise Cam simply backed slowly away from the whole scenario until he reached the door. There are things and thighs that shouldn't be seen by the human eyes.

At least Lee wasn't here or else he wouldn't bring himself to look at Chaz the same way. Cam wiped the remaining water droplets from his face with the back of his hand. So far there's no visible flaws on him, looks like it's time for him to make his move. He did his best to squeeze past the jocks, but one of them carelessly threw a pigskin across the room which knocked him from behind and he fell face first on the floor. Before he could retrieve his scattered gifts, the dancers were too engrossed with the music that they trampled all over the presents. Petals fell from the stems, the box of candies crushed with every stomp, this was his worst nightmare!

All seems lost to him, until Brandy walked over and nearly tripped over him.

"Hey! Watch where you trip dorkus! (Gasp!) Cam?" When Brandy looked down, she was surprised to find Cam of all people on the floor, she reached out a hand to him and helped him up on his feet.

"Cam? Are you ok?" asked Brandy, who was looking concerned.

"Yea, gracias chika, but I wouldn't say the same for your presents" said Cam sadly as he pointed out to the badly damaged gifts beneath the feet of the dancers. Brandy gasped and looked sorry for Cam.

"Oh Cam, that was sweet of you"

"Yea, sorry I couldn't save them though" said Cam sadly as he tilted his head downwards in shame and guilt.

Brandy gave him a warm smile which was only reserved for him and gave him a hug. Cam was shocked by Brandy's sudden action of affection, but nonetheless returned a hug to her. She was so warm and it was so real, he's hugging his lady without getting sneers or disapproving looks from the popular kids or the Glamazons. This was nice. They pulled away from each other and gazed at each other lovingly. It wasn't the way she looked without her glasses or how he looked dashing under the dim lights of her lounge room, it was the moment they were in. It was pulling them in, but neither were willing to comply.

"You look really beautiful tonight, like a starlet on the red carpet" said Cam honestly.

Brandy smiled and thanked him for the compliment, they chatted for a bit before Cyrus finished singing his smash hit song. He called out for everyone's attention as he dedicated the next song to all the A. Nigma High students who have a special someone in their minds.

(REMINDER: Listen to "The Reason Why" by the Click 5 to continue)

"Alright, this next song is dedicated to all you lovebirds out there. Even if you have no one special in mind, let's share the love for this next song together" said Cyrus as he strummed his guitar and the rest of his band members followed suit with their instruments.

Yesterday,

I waited for your friends to walk away,

So I could say just what I mean.

The students in the room paired with their loved ones; Biffy with Kimmie, Steve with Greta, Irwin and his abacus. Cam and Brandy were the only two without a partner to dance with. Cam asked Brandy if she would like to dance with him and she agreed with a smile. Cam placed his hands on her hips and Brandy placed hers on his shoulders as they danced to the rhythm of the song.

I know we're moving fast,

We're running from the past,

I'm holding on before it fades away.

Holger walked over to his bathroom sink to wash his face, he looked awful. His eyes were red and puffy, and his hair was unkempt. He opened his medicine cabinet to retrieve his vitamins he received from the doctor and that's when a container of sleeping pills caught his attention from the corner of his eyes.

If only he could forget.

Forget about the pain.

Forget about the betrayal.

Forget about… Greta.

He clutched the container in his hand and walked back to his bedroom.

Could it be that maybe it's our first mistake,

And Baby that's alright,

It's crazy how we lost ourselves tonight,

There's a reason why they say that we should give it time,

But time is not enough,

And that's the reason why,

When you're young you fall in love.

Lee snuggled closer to his brother as a scary monster appeared behind the assassin in the movie and nearly decapitated him. Chase gave a low chuckle before he wrapped Lee securely with his left arm.

He liked this, there was no rush and they could take the moment to enjoy each other's company. Even though he knew Chase wanted to take him again, he wanted his brother to give him time and space for now. Chase looked at Lee and gave him a soft peck on the cheek.

"Mmm, what was that for?"

"For being cute and just"

"Just what?" Lee asked.

"Just staying by my side, even though I did horrible things to you at the casino"

Lee chuckled and lightly smacked Chase's chest.

"What are brothers for?"

When Lee said that, he did not see the disappointed look made by Chase. Chase looked away from Lee and continued watching the movie.

Yea, brothers…

Standing still,

I'm waiting round to see if this is real,

Cause I feel like I'm asleep,

I'll open up my eyes,

Cause you might be the type,

Of girl that makes me dream when I'm awake.

It was now or never, he had to let Brandy know how he felt for her. He took a deep breath and exhaled.

"Hey chika, can I ask you something?"

"What's up?"

"Do you think I'm cool?" asked Cam nervously.

"For a mega dork? Yeah, you're cool" said Brandy jokingly.

"No, I mean, for real. Do you think I'm cool?"

"Of course, Cam"

"Cool, cuz I think you're cool too, and I think you're like the coolest girl I've ever met since like the 5th Grade" said Cam.

"Cam? Are you ok?" Brandy asked.

"Y-yea, just needed to get something off my chest. Chika, no, Brandy you're the most amazing girl I've ever met, besides Tina I mean"

Brandy rolled her eyes.

"And I dunno what to say, like you give me these butterflies and frogs in my belly and it makes me all nervous but happy at the same time. You're loyal, pretty, and smart, there's so much about you that make me appreciate you more. I guess what I'm trying to say is that I-"

Brandy sealed Cam's lips with a kiss, she pulled away and Cam was completely dumbfounded.

"I know Cam and just between us, I feel the same way too" replied Brandy.

Cam was absolutely elated! He kissed Brandy one more time before lifting her off her feet and twirled her around like a madman. Yes, he may seem crazy, but he was a love-struck fool who won the heart of his princess.

Could it be that maybe it's our first mistake,

And baby that's alright,

It's crazy how we lost ourselves tonight,

There's a reason why they say that we should give it time,

But time is not enough,

And that's the reason why,

When you're young you fall in love.

That's the reason why,

When you're young you fall in love.

Holger picked up the picture frame with the photo of him and Greta at the carnival. He placed his visors on his bedside table and walked over to his bed and lay there with the frame close to his chest, those memories were all over. He wiped his last tear before sleep took over his body, his eyelids were getting heavy and he drifted off into a deep sleep.

That's the reason why,

When you're young you fall in love.

To be continued…

Finally, the real Chapter 6 is here! This took longer than expected, but it was worth it. Thank you to all my reviewers who were understanding and supportive of my works, I couldn't have done it without you. Anyways, Chapter 7 is gonna be up soon and hopefully I could make room for 'The Unwanted Guest'. As usual leave a review or two, and I'll be seeing you guys later, I'm off to take a burrito break.
