Two Paths Meet, Brittany A. [the best electronic book reader .TXT] 📗

my I ask who your biting friend is?” Alex asked, but she also looked at Ren and he nodded so she knew only she could see him. She looked at her brother and he and his friend were fixing their shirts and standing up. “Alex this is Todd, Todd this is my little sister Alex” Brain said. She just walked over to her bed and sat down and Ren sat next to her. “So Brain why are you here? You were not supposed to be here till tomorrow.” Her brother smiled and said, “Oh it was supposed to be a surprise.” She nodded and said, “Oh it was a surprise, to see my gay brother almost do it on my bedroom floor.” She saw Todd’s face get red and he looked at the ground. Brain smiled and Todd said, “I’ll be right back,” and he walked out of the room. Then Brain said, “Oh and your little friend can show himself I saw him when you walked in lil sis, nice try though.” She looked in Ren’s direction and he shrugged, then she just nodded. She looked at her brother and saw the instant surprise in his eyes then it was gone. “So I was right, and what’s your name?” Brain asked. “My name is Ren, and it’s nice to meet you Brian.” Brian smiled and said, “So how long has he been here without mom and dad knowing, and no I’m not going to rat you out.” She smiled and said, “Like three and a half weeks.” Brain laughed a little and said, “Well I guess it’s easy to sneak him in when are parents are never here… You know they are easier on you then they were on me about bringing girls over, little did they know it was the boys not the girls… So Ren what exactly are you to my lil sister?” Alex just looked at her brother with her mouth open wide. “Oh come now Alex closes your mouth before you attracted flies. Someone has to play devils advocate since dad can’t.” Then Ren said, “I don’t really know what I am to her. I guess I’m whatever she wants me to be at that time, like a friend one minute and a boyfriend another.” Brain looked at him and asked, “But are you happy doing that?” Ren smiled and said, “I’m happy as long as I can make Alex happy and be there for her.” Alex looked at him and asked, “But why won’t you let me make you happy without you having to make me happy first?” Ren smiled at her and took her into his arms and said, “Because it’s not necessary. I’m happy that I get to be here with you and that is enough for me.”
Ren could see that Alex was a little mad that he would not let her do something for him and that he always did something for her. Then he remembered Brain was in the room. So he was going to change the subject, till they were alone again and he knew that Alex would bring it up again. “So Brain how old are you?” he asked. Brain laughed because both Brain and Alex knew he was trying to change the subject. “I’m 22 and Todd’s 21. I’m going to college to be photographer and Todd’s going to be a writer… And may I ask how old you are?” Ren smiled because he was really old but his human body was only in its teens. “I’m 17 year olds.” Brain nodded and Todd came into the room and saw him. “Todd this is Ren, Alex’s…” Brain looked at Alex and she said, “Boyfriend.” Todd nodded and sat next to Brian on the floor. Then there was an acquired pause from everyone. Then Brain stood up and said, “Well Todd I suppose we should leave them alone before my parents get home.” Todd nodded and got up and walked out with Brain. Ren knew what the first thing out of Alex’s mouth was going to be. So he looked at her in his arms. “Ok so why can’t I do anything to make you happy?” she asked him. He smiled and said, “You do make me happy, just by doing small things, like letting me hold you, or hold your hand.” She looked forward in thought. Then she got out of his arms and faced him. “So you’re saying just by doing small things, but what if I did this?” she asked, then lend in and kissed him. He kissed her back and then she lay down on the bed and pulled him down with her. “Alex what are you doing?” he asked her in a serious tone.
She looked at him with incessant eyes, didn’t answer him but kissed him again and again, until he gave in and kissed her back. He did not really want to continue unless he knew what her plan where and how far she was going to take it. So he pulled back from her and asked, “Alex what exactly are you planning to do?” she smiled and said, “To make you happy.” He stopped everything right then. “Alex no I cannot let you do anything else, I care for you to much to let you do something that might hurt you later.” She just looked at him and said, “I was trying to make both of us happy not just you… It was going to make me happy, I really can’t say what it would do for you but it would have made me very happy.” He looked her in the eyes and asked, “And why would it of made you happy, why would that one thing make you happy?” she smiled, looked him straight in the eyes and said, “Because I would be even closer to you them I already am.” He wanted to tell her that they were already so close that she did not need to do that. “Alex you don’t need to do that just to get closer to that person.” She smiled and said, “That’s not only why I want to, I also want to so you can… so you can have it.” He looked at her all confused, some human things he still didn’t know. “So I can have what sweet heart?” he asked feeling kinda dumb for having to ask. She looked a little shy to say it again, and this time the actual word. “So you can have my… my virginity.” She looked away all shy and her face got all red. He knew them what she had meant, and he felt so stupid for having have to say it when it was a shy matter to her. He took her chin in his hand and made her look at him. “Sweet heart you don’t need to do that just because you want to get closer to me doesn’t mean you need to do that” he told her and he could see she was getting even more shy about it so he let go of her chin and she turned away with her face getting redder and redder. He sat up in the bed and looked at the wall and just waited for her to regain her self-opinion.
After about 5 minutes she sat up and looked at him. “Sorry that was a little childish of me to do” she said. He smiled and said, “Well we all have sir tin things we want to achieve, like the way I want to make you happy, but I will not allow things to go too far, and for that I’m sorry if I made you unhappy with me.” She just shook her head, and said, “I’m not unhappy with you at all.” He smiled and took her into his arms. He kissed the top of her head and said, “And for that I’m grateful.”

Three weeks later
Alex was really happy because yesterday was the beginning of spring break, a whole week off of school, but there was a good/bad thing, Brain was going to go to a college closer to home and so was Todd. They were going to live together, but the bad part was that Brain was now only 15 minutes away so he could drop in any time he wanted. But the one good thing about the day that Alex liked the most was that her parents were going to be at work all day and Brain and Todd were going to be gone to go pack their things for their move. So Alex and Ren had the house to themselves.
“So Alex what do you want to do today?” Ren asked. She smiled up at him because she had just woken up a few minute before and was still in bed. She smiled and pulled his face down by hers and whispered in his ear, ‘I have a good idea what I want to do.’ Then she kissed him on the lips. He smiled and kissed her back, and she kept at it. Then she felt him pull back so she opened her eyes and looked at him. “Alex I know where you’re trying to take this” he told her. She smiled a little knowing she had been cot. “Well you can’t say I didn’t try” she said joking around with him. But he did not think it was funny. “Alex I thought we had talked about this” he said. She nodded and said, “We did and sorry. I knew you figure it out, it was just out of fun I didn’t mean any harm by it, so I’m sorry.” She turned her head away from him and closed her eyes, because she knew he was mad at her. “Alex, why are you so persistent about this?” he asked. “Because I love you and want to be with you” she told him. That was the first time she had come out and said it, so she didn’t know what he would do. Her eyes were still closed and she waited to hear him respond but he didn’t. And she was getting scared. Did he feel the same way or not, she wanted to know.
She waited two more minutes then she opened her eyes and looked at him. He was looking right at her. “Do you really mean that or are you just trying to get what you want?” he asked. She looked into his blue eyes and said, “I do mean it, why would I joke with something like that.” Then he leaned down and kissed her, gently and sweetly. “I love you to Alex, I really do. I think I have since I saw you cry over losing Brandon as a friend.” She smiled and pulled him closer to her and kissed him. She was so happy that he said he loved her. She just wanted to be with him right then and there but she knew he would get made so she just kissed him. But she realized that he was letting her and not stopping her. So she took it a little further, by putting her hands up his shirt to his chest, which he would not of let it of go that far before. But he let her and she knew that she
