Bree has been avoiding Adam like he was the plague. Every time he came around by himself or with the other boys, she'd make up so lame reason to excuse herself. It's been a week since their 'intimate' encounter. She was confused...yeah that's what it was. Why did he have to make things awkward? She'd find herself annoyed by him. She'd find herself working out a lot more to work out her frustrations. Plus, no one bothered her if she was on the elliptical or treadmill. She'd put her ear phones on and couldn't hear them when Chase or Leo would ask if she wanted to join them for frozen yogurt or if she wanted to join them for a movie. During her usual avoidance after dinner, Bree was on the bike when Chase came over to her.

"Bree, is everything okay? Seems like you've been avoiding everyone lately and I think I know what's bothering you"

She stopped everything at once. Her face becoming bright red, "uhhh you do?

"Yes, Look it's perfectly fine. One of these days some guy will ask you to Winter Ball. You're a gorgeous girl. Trust me" He gently put his hand on her shoulder giving her a reassuring nod. Bree began to laugh. Chase looked at her confused by her response.

Bree quickly regrouped her thoughts "ahh I mean, oh you think? trying to cover her embarrassment on Chase's remark. Little did he know that guys constantly asked her out and she had already 3 invites for dates to the dance. Of course, these were guys who she had absolutely no interest in and honestly, they probably only asked her since they found out she was bionic.

She got off the bike grabbing for a towel wiping sweat of her forehead. A thought entered her mind. Chase was a guy.

"Actually Chase, there is this one guy. I know him pretty well and I think he likes me but...I don't know. I don't want to go down that route since..."

"Since you're friends? Chase asked following her question. Bree nodded. Chase raised his hand to his chin as a gesture of thinking.

"Well, it's always risky when you make a change in friendships. I guess you have to weigh out the pros to the cons. AND, is this guy worth investing in given our lifestyle"

Bree agreed, "Well he definitely knows a lot about my life. I guess I'm afraid and it's all new to me. Plus, what if I'm reading all this wrong and he's just expressing feelings of caring for me as a friend and nothing more?

Chase once again put his hand on her shoulder. "Bree, guys are simple. Just ask him directly if he wants to be more then friends. Worst case he says no, Yes it will be awkward but time will pass and he'll eventually forget that you ever made a fool of yourself"

"Oh Thanks! Bree shrugged his hand off her shoulder. Chase wasn't much help when it came to advice but then again, she was asking the question without much content too. However, he did make a good point that she should ask him directly if what she was sensing was correct. Then that butterfly in her stomach came back. 'Duh Bree, That's the entire point. Are you prepared for what's to follow after that?

She came out of the changing room and headed to the living room. Adam was on the couch with a bucket of popcorn watching a horror movie. He was cringing and slouching down hiding his eyes with the popcorn. He's so cute. Bree stood there watching him for a nanosecond when he screamed and popcorn went everywhere. She started laughing when he immediately sat up looking right at her.

"Hey Bree" Adam said as he grabbed the controller and paused the movie. "Everyone went to go see the new Star Wars movie but I didn't feel like standing in the cold waiting for hours when I can just wait a few weeks and see it then. If you hurry you can catch up to them"

Bree walked over to the couch and sat down. Adam fidgeted clearing off popcorn. "Actually Adam I wanted to talk to you"

Adam turned away "Talk or avoid me? Bree rolled her eyes. Okay she deserved that. Before she could reply Adam interjected "Look Bree, I get it. You only care for me as a brother and have no interest otherwise. I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable and have you treat me like a rabid dog." He grabbed the controller and started the movie again.

Who does he think he is? Bree grabbed the controller and angrily paused the movie, "Wow you think you know everything huh? Look you came up to me all 'I think you're amazing and I want you' This entire week I've done nothing but think about you and-" She immediately stopped mid sentence. Adam was looking right at her hanging on to every word she was saying. She didn't realize how close she was to him sitting next to him on the couch. "Look Adam, I've known you ALL my life. ALL my life. You and Chase are my family. You're obviously gorgeous and I don't know...I'm not experienced with guys like at all" Now she began to fidget her fingers in her lap. Adam just sat there not saying a word. Bree wanted a response from him. He sat back and put the bucket of popcorn aside.

"So you're not mad at me? He asked. Bree shook her head no. Adam began to smile "And you think I'm gorgeous? Bree's cheek flushed red and she punched his shoulder. He was making fun of her and she already felt stupid admitting her lack of experience with guys. "Owwwww" Adam said as chuckled at her. She sat there hands fidgeting again in her lap. Oh she was so stupid! Adam sat closer to her so their knees touched one another. Then he grabbed her chin so her face lifted up and her eyes met his. He then put the strand of her hair behind her ear. Her entire body tingled as his fingers caressed her cheekbone. Wow, this was getting intense. He leaned in and began kissing her lips. She was floored but couldn't help her response to the kiss. A fire went through her entire body and she willingly kissed him back. Then the kiss began to intensify and she wrapped her hands behind his neck drawing him closer. His hands wrapped around her body pulling her closer so her body was now pressed up against his. Passionately breathing in every moment caressing her lips with his feeling his tongue in hers. Then they both heard it. The door opening. With an instant they separated with Bree shoving popcorn in her mouth and Adam unpausing the movie.

Chase and Leo walked in mid conversation "I told you Chase we needed to go earlier or we weren't going to make it" Leo said as he plopped down next to Adam crossing his arms against his chest, "How was I suppose to know there would be that many people already there? Chase sat on the other side next to Bree. Adam turned to the guys "To many nerds already in line? Leo responded "I told him we should have pre-purchased the tickets but nooooooo. Someone was certain there would be enough tickets to buy" "Look I'm sorry Leo. I really didn't think it would be sold out" Adam and Bree smiled at the thought that they almost got caught making out.

Adam handed Leo the bucket of popcorn "Movie? Bree and I just started it" Leo reluctantly grabbed the bucket and started shoveling popcorn in his mouth. "What is it about? Leo asked. Adam's face now became beat red. "Ummmm" Bree couldn't help her inner-self do a victory dance. Their kiss has caused him to forget everything. Chase sensing something off "You don't remember what you're literally just been watching? Bree laughed and quickly said "No no...it's just, i asked him the same thing and he was just about to restart it. You guys in? Leo nodded and Chase too.

"Well alright then. Lets get this movie started" Adam said as he restarted the movie giving Bree a wink
