Miss Taylor Goes to Washington – Chapter V

Kelly woke up late after a really long night's sleep. As soon as she remembered last night's events she felt so embarrassed and buried her head in the pillow. Why did she kiss him? Why did he want to see her? This couldn't be good. She felt like the summer before senior year of high school when her and Dylan sneaked around behind Brenda's back. Oh, talk about bad memories. That was the single thing she felt most guilty about in her life. She found comfort in the fact that Dylan and Brenda at least were together now. Unlike Brandon and herself by the way. She sighed at the fact that she actually managed to lead her thoughts back on him. She got out of bed because she figured she might as well enjoy her first weekend in the city by actually seeing it. When she got out of a long warm shower, her phone went off. It said 'Brandon'. Oh my God, she thought kind of freaking out.

"H-hello?" she asked in utterly confusion over the moment.

"Kel, it's me." his familiar voice assured her. She knew that she was just confused that he even called her. On the other hand, he had told her he wanted to see her.

"Yeah... I know." Kelly replied, still sounding weird. Why couldn't she just act somewhat normal? God, what is wrong with me, she asked her self.

"So about today. I wanted to meet you for coffee in an hour. Are you free?" Okay, that sounded friendly. Maybe he wasn't up to anything. Maybe he actually just wanted to catch up. She sighed in relief.

"Sure."

As she approached the café, she saw his face light up. He pulled her into a hug. It felt safe, familiar. Nice. Well, better than nice to me honest.

"So, what did you want to talk about?" Kelly asked as she sat down on a chair by the window.

"Nothing special, really." Brandon mumbled, his eyes locking with hers.

"Look, I feel really bad about what happened last night. I really didn't want to make things weird between us, I don't know why I did it anyway." she started rambling on, since she figured that was why he acted weird.

"It's really no big deal, Kel. It is really overwhelming to see you again as well." God, she loved when he said 'Kel'.

"I'm glad we agree." Kelly smiled, as he put his left hand on top of her left. She couldn't deny the waves of pleasure going through her as he did it. She hesitated for a moment, then removed her hand. "So..." she started. Great, now things were all awkward again.

"So, how is everyone back home?"

"So you still call it home?" she grinned. "They are fine. Well, they kind of settled down. Donna's pregnant."

"Wow, that's great. How is Steve my man? And David?" Brandon asked interested.

"Steve is good. Happy with Janet and Maddie. David is obviously a happy soon-to-be father." she explained.

"Glad to here it." After his words there was an uncomfortable silence. "So... You wouldn't want to go for a walk in the park?" Was he kidding? That was the place they went all those years ago when Kelly had come to Washington to see him. She couldn't say no to that though, she missed that place. Or more so to be there with him.

As they were walking through the beautiful park admiring the beautiful roses, Kelly felt a warm, familiar hand in her own. It felt like the most natural thing in the world, and that was why Kelly didn't remove her hand this time. She felt a warmth spread through her body, as they strolled through the park like any ordinary couple. Except they weren't. But what harm could it do to hold hands? Honestly. That isn't cheating, Kelly thought. Brandon let her to the same exact bench they had been sitting on back before they even got together. They chatted about everything and anything, as to avoid what would happen next. Not that any of them didn't want anything to happen, but neither of them found it appropriate, obviously.

After a while there settled a, this time comfortable, silence. Kelly put her head on his shoulder as she took in the beautiful view as well as the scent of the roses and Brandon. The feeling of being close to him again, even if it was just like this, couldn't be described. With Brandon's familiar scent, came many wonderful memories. Their first stroll in this very park, the rest of their first summer as a couple, her stupid choice of leaving both Brandon and Dylan, their reunion barely two years after, their ring, their graduation, the terrible accident, their engagement, and...their almost-wedding. She found herself unable to remember the stupid reason they didn't get married.

"Brandon?" she asked out of the blue.

"Mhm?" Brandon lazily replied.

"What went wrong at our wedding?" Kelly frankly asked.

"I guess we weren't ready for the commitment. I was very confused – about my entire life, not only the love-part."

"I know. I was scared. We got engaged for all the wrong reasons." she simply stated, remembering the fight at the end of which they had become engaged. She suddenly felt depressed, realizing she had actually missed her chance. Now Vanessa would get her chance, and she honestly hope she would blow it. Brandon looked at her, noticing the sadness across her face.

"Kelly?" he started, cupping her face with his right hand, forcing her to look at him. "What's wrong?" She looked down.

"Nothing, it's just..." she said, trailing off. She didn't want to tell him.

"Kelly?" Brandon repeated, lifting her chin so she looked at him again. He leaned in and locked her lips with his, only for at few seconds. That was enough to make Kelly shiver. Even with such a short kiss, she felt the sensation she had been missing since...what felt like forever. He looked at her as though he waited for her approval. She put her hands behind his neck and pulled his lips back on hers. She had to grab the chance. Kelly giggled at the thought and the situation and bit him softly on the lower lip to reassure him it was okay. Even though she knew it wasn't and she shouldn't (giggle). Brandon deepened the kiss by parting her lips with his own, their longing tongues meeting at last. He stroked her back and attempted to move her closer, while Kelly ran her hands softly through his hair. Brandon suddenly broke the kiss. Kelly's heart fell, as she desperately wanted to continue, but she assumed he had realized what a mistake he was making.

"Come on." he smiled, taking her by the hand and dragging her from the bench. Or had he?

"Where are we going?" she asked.

"Your hotel."
