Liz stared at Brian. Had she heard right? Had he just said that he'd make love with her or was her mind playing mean tricks on her? The look in Brian's eyes told her that she had heard correctly. Her heart pounded faster. She was going to lose her innocence to Brian Thomas Littrell.
"H-have you ever done this before?" she asked.
Brian blushed, "No…I'm a virgin…"
Liz almost screamed. This was all too much to bear! Brian was a virgin and wanted to lose his virginity to her?! Maybe dreams DID come true after all!
Brian chuckled, "You look shocked."
"I am!"
Brian laughed softly, "Well, I have been saving myself for that certain someone. And you know what?" he asked in a soft voice.
"What?" Liz's voice was barely above a whisper.
Brian's arms tightened around her as he gently backed them up to the couch in the middle of the room. He then laid her back, positioning himself on top of her, propping himself up with one elbow, the other arm around Liz. She snuggled into the couch and looked up into his blue eyes, unable - and unwilling - to look away. Brian gently kissed her lips, a teasing look in his eyes. "I found her."
Liz smiled softly and kissed him teasingly, "Really? Who would that be?"
"You." That was all he could say, Liz's lips covered his instantly.
Nick stared at Elisa. She'd just said that she loved him! And from the look in her eyes told him that she wasn't lying, that she meant it. Nick felt his heart explode and he kissed her sweetly. He still wasn't sure whether he loved her or not but he knew he liked her, he liked her a lot. Maybe in time it would lead up to love but for now it stayed the same. Plus, she was under age and Nick was only nineteen. He was still a virgin and was too nervous to make a move. Instead, he smiled at her and slipped his arms around her waist and leaned his lips on her shoulder, whispering in a soft voice.
"I like you, Elisa."
Eli smiled and held him close. "I know, I know. It's too soon for you too love me too, I understand that completely."
Nick smiled brightly, "I may not love you just yet, but I feel as though I could fall in love with you. I do like you though, a lot."
Eli grinned, "Are you asking me out?"
Nick thought a minute and nodded. "Yes, I'm asking you out."
Elisa smiled and kissed him. Nick knew that he had very deep feelings for her and that they definitely would fall in love with her. He kissed her with love and passion and held her close.
Elisa couldn't be happier. Nickolas Gene Carter had just asked her out and her heart was pounding from the passion in which he was kissing her with.
"Yes, Nick, I will go out with you."
Nick smiled and looked into her eyes and Elisa felt her heartbeat speed up. She couldn't believe how much she loved him but she also didn't care. All that mattered was that she was going out with him, he must have SOME feelings for her. She leaned upward and kissed him gently. His arms tightened around her as she pulled back.
"Where's Liz and Brian?"
Nick looked around, "I don't know. They were just here…"
Eli couldn't help but smile. Maybe they were out having coffee or something. Maybe they , too, were going out. "They'll be back soon, I'm sure. Liz and I have to be getting home soon."
Nick frowned, "Aww, I want you to stay here with me!"
Elisa smiled and kissed him, "You big baby."
"Am not!"
Elisa couldn't help but laugh. "Yes you are." She kissed him again before leaning back up against the wall, "But you're MY big baby."
Nick laughed, "Always."
"Always."
Brian and Liz lay on the couch in each others arms, Brian was gently stroking her bare arm and Liz was caressing his chest. She let out a happy sigh and Brian looked down at her.
"You ok?"
She looked at him and smiled, "Yes."
Brian smiled and kissed the tip of her nose. All he felt at that moment was love for the girl in his arms. Liz looked at the clock and sat up, pulling her bra on. "El's and I have to go soon…"
Brian sat and pulled his boxers on. "Alright…when can I see you again?"
Liz thought a minute and looked at him. "Well, I don't know. My mom and dad won't approve of us going out…but I don't want to break up with you…"
Brian hugged her. "I WON'T break up with you. I mean, I finally found the girl of my dreams and I won't let her go without the fight of my life. I love you with all my heart."
Liz looked into his eyes, "Aww, you sweetheart!"
Brian smiled and kissed the tip of her nose, "I'm YOUR sweetheart."
Liz held him close, "What are we going to do about Leigh Anne?"
Brian looked at her, "I'll break up with her…"
Liz shook her head, "If you do, people may suspect that you're going out with me…stay with her until we figure out what to do…we can meet places and be together then."
Brian looked in her eyes, "Are you sure, Lizzie?"
Liz nodded, "Yes."
Brian nodded, "Alright…"
Liz stood and finished dressing. "Ok, I'll go out the other door and walk back up the stairs and backstage…you change so everyone will think that is what you have been doing in here."
Brian nodded again and kissed her sweetly. "See you in a few, Lizzie."
Liz left him then and Brian dressed and walked out to Elisa and Nick, who were enjoying a nice kiss.
"Hey guys." Brian chuckled.
Nick and Elisa turned and Eli smiled, "Hi! Where's Liz?"
Brian shrugged, "I don't know."
Elisa stared at him, "You mean you weren't with her?"
"No." It tore Brian up inside to say this but he knew it was for the best.
