So many thoughts on my mind. What would I say to her? Just 'I am sorry' won't be enough for her. I know that. I was so afraid of what she would say. I was preparing my mind to hear any kind of thing from her. I took a deep breath and entered in the bedroom. I looked around to find her, I didn't find her. Probably she is on her bed.

"Brittany? Are you there?" I asked, just to show my presence.

"Up here." She answered with a soft voice. I had to do it. I jumped over her bed. Brittany was lying down, looking to the wall next to her. Then she turned awards to me, got up, walked up to me. I never expected that reaction, never. I simply couldn't describe with words what I felt in that particular moment. It was so unique. She just…

...hugged me.

I was speechless. I couldn't believe in my own eyes. I thought she would say mean words to me, she would be very mad at me. But she hugged me. After a few minutes, we broke a part. I looked to her eyes. I loved her eyes so much.

"Britt… what… why this?" I was so surprised that I couldn't make a phrase. Then she looked deep inside my eyes.

"Words can hurt feelings, you know..." She said, softly.

"I should have known that..." I replied sadly. "I never mean to hurt you..."

"I shouldn't believe in you…" She said, looking away.

"I don't blame you…" I said, looking down.

"But I saw you full of remorse and sadness..." She said, looking at me again.

"So what, that won't fix what I had made." I said, with my eyes tearing.

"Said words cannot be erased..." She said, with a cold look.

"You probably hate me now!" I said, with some anger in my voice.

"No, Alvin, I don't hate you." She put her paws on my shoulders.

"How you don't hate me?" I wonder, for me that was impossible.

"I can't hate you because..." She looked into my eyes. "I saw you with so much sadness and remorse, that was enough to me to believe you didn't say that on purpose." I was really shocked with her words.

"But… but.. you were so hurt..." I replied, confused.

"Alvie, that does not matter." She smiled at me. I loved her smile.

"You really mean that?" I hold her paws.

"Yes, I mean everything." She said, looking at me. I never felt so alive like this before. I couldn't help but hug her again.

"We are best friends, you can tell me everything..." She whispered on my ear. After we broke a part, she asked for the truth. "Why you said those words?" I took a deep breath before saying anything. I guess I don't have reason to hide my feelings for her anymore.

"I didn't want you to hear what I am willing to tell you in that way." I felt that my conscience was lighter after speaking the truth.

"You can tell me now, Alvie." She said, softly. I never enjoyed that nickname but it was my reminder that she was not mad at me.

"You mean a lot to me, Britt." I finally started to say what I always wanted to tell her. "I have for feelings for you. Always did." Finally I said that. "And the thought of losing you was destroying me."

"Alvin..." She starts to say something. "Why you didn't say that before?"

"I was afraid, okay, afraid of you not feeling the same way!" I finally put that out of me.

"I feel the same way..." She smiled at me. "But your selfish way always made me think you didn't care about me."

"I didn't know how to show to you the opposite..." I replied, sadly.

"You did it today. You show all of your regret." Then, she kissed my cheek, surprising me a lot. That made me smile again. I smiled at her. And kissed back her cheek.

"Are you feeling better now?"

"Yeah, pretty much… Thanks I guess." I said, I was feeling myself happy again.

"Let's just forget what happened, okay." She said, smiling.

"Sure, I don't want that to blur our future." Ops, that just came out of mouth.

"Our future? Our... future?" She was really surprised. "You mean…."

"Yes, I mean that, Britt." I replied. I don't want to be only best friends.

"But I will leave to New York in a week..." She said.

"You are going back to L.A., aren't you?" I pulled her closer to me.

"Yeah, but after month." She said, surprised.

"I don't care. We can spent a lot time together before that." I said, putting my paw on her cheek.

"Yes, we can and we must." She said with more confidence.

"And when you come back, it will be only you and me." After saying those words, I couldn't hold myself. I quickly kissed her lips. I thought she would hit me on my face. Then something amazing happened. She looked me with a sexy look, and pulled me closer by my hoodie and kissed me back for some minutes! That was better than expected!

"Let's enjoy our last days before I go." She said, leaving the bedroom.

I just followed her. We reunite with the others to decide what we will do in the next days. From now on I will do my best to be honest with everyone, especially with her and myself. I won't even think about losing her again. That will never be part of my plans. Of course my brothers and her sisters asked us if we forgive each other.

Well, why would I lie to them?
