{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}"I don't know." he said as his own eyes filled with frustration. "All I know," he started "I'm not leaving your sight. I'm going to cancel my reservations at the hotel this week. I don't want to leave you again." He wrapped his arms around Joelle and took his shirt and wiped the tears out of Joelle's eyes. "Should I go to college here?" Brian had already been going to college for a year and a half. This was the first time seeing Joelle in that long. "One hundred and eighty-five days since we broke up." He looked at her. "Can we stay together now for more days then that?" He kissed her hand and closed his eyes. Then he opened them. "What is that?" he said pointing out the window facing a fairly large body of water glistening in the sunset. "A lake? Or a large pond?" Brian remembered a day before they broke up watching the sunset and sharing their saliva.

{name:Joelle#|#picture:2}Joelle looked up at Brian. "I think it's a river or something along that line." she paused. "Brian, would you actually leave your college. I love you and I want you here, but you're at one of the best colleges in the country. I don't expect you to leave that. It's a once in a lifetime thing." Joelle leaned against Brian, more tears trickling down her cheeks as she listened to his heartbeat.

{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}"It's not something 'I would just give up' You are important to me and I would do anything to stay close to you. Please don't cry. Can we talk about you know? Please?" He gave her the puppy-dog face knowing she'd buy it. "So where do you work or go to school?" he said rubbing her red cheeks from crying.
Then there was a loud 'BOOM' from outside and it started to pour. "Great," Brian chuckled "Now mother nature is crying."

{name:Joelle#|#picture:2}Joelle gave a weak smile. "I work as a secretary for a cosmetics company." she gave a quick gasp trying to regain her breath. "That's weird." Joelle said pointing at the window, "the weather didn't call for rain." Joelle stared out the window, watching the rain fall. "What's college like?

{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}"Well just like highschool. It's much bigger and nic.." Brian was cut off by a big 'BOOM' and a flash of lighting. "What does it matter? You hungry? I can cook spaghetti." Brian said made a huge grin. He LOVED spaghetti. "Let me see your room, you still owe me a tour of your house if I'm going to be living here a while." He lifted Joelle's hand and put it on his shoulder. "C'mon!"

{name:Joelle#|#picture:2}Joelle laughed. Of course Brian would want spaghetti! "Do you want the tour first, or the supper?" she asked. Joelle stood up and pulled Brian into a standing position. She looked into his green eyes. Then she wrapped her arms around him, giving him a long hug. "We could have spaghetti and meatballs!Unless I have scallops, then we should have spaghetti and scallops!"

{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}"Let's start with dinner. I think my stomach started to yell at me." Brian looked down and pointed at his stomach which then made a loud growling noise. "Ugh, so Joelle?" he gave a half hearted smile, "Are we back...together?" Joelle quickly pulled him in and he obeyed and he kissed her. "I'll take that as a yes" he thought.

{name:Joelle#|#picture:2}"We absolutely are!" Joelle said, smiling widely. "And supper sounds perfect, I can hear your stomach growling! Are you cooking or am I?" Joelle led Brian towards the kitchen. It was cozy with a rustic feel. She started pulling ingredients from the shelves and setting them onto the counters.

{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}"How about we both do it." Brian said examining the scallops and meatballs. "Do you know how to make scallops? I didn't take cooking ever. All I do is follow directions." Brian said pointing at the pot of noodles. He whispered in Joelle's ear "We are making dinner like a married couple" then he turned around and got back to cooking. He was wondering how they would really be as a married couple.

{name:Joelle#|#picture:2}Mrs.Brian Woods floated through Joelle's mind. She liked the sound of that. "I think I can do the scallops, but if there unedible, I'm going to blame it on the stove! And I've never made meatballs before." she said. "Can you do the noodles? I can only ever manage to make them rubbery!" Joelle laughed and pulled Brian near for another kiss.

{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}"Sure...dear" The dear part seemed to slip out when Joelle kissed him. The rain was really coming down hard now. "I just hope the power doesn't go out. I bet it won't though." Brain almost slipped back just as the lights when out when the noodles were done and he had set the table. "Gimme a lighter." Joelle handed him one and he light the only two candles on the table giving an eerie glow.
Brian's phone buzzed. "Briar just texted me, she lost power too."

{name:Joelle#|#picture:2}"Candlelight is so pretty," Joelle said, staring into the flickering flames. "And really? The whole town must be down! Poor Briar, its bound to be dark! And she's all alone. Should we call her or something?" Joelle knew she hated to be alone in the dark. If Brian wasn't here she would probably be huddled under her covers. Setting the scallops on the table she served the food onto the two plates. "Dig in!" she said

{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}That's exactly what Brian did. He dug in. With his mouth full of noodles he said "Briar won't be afraid she actually prefers the dark. She's probably asleep now." Then he swallowed and said "When your finished I wanna see your room. Scared?" He saw Joelle shiver and start to eat.

{name:Joelle#|#picture:2}"Just a little. I'm fine!" Joelle took a bite of scallop and choked as the flavour hit her tongue. Spatting it out she took a big sip of water. "Don't eat the scallops!" she said to Brian. "I undercooked them." she went to the noodles instead. They were cooked perfectly! "And of course I'll show you my room after. It's a bit girly."

{name:Brian Woods#|#picture:9}Brian pushed the scallops to the side. "Ovens fault," he said hoping Joelle wasn't sick. "I don't mind, unless I'm sleeping in your room." This is where Brian almost choked from eating to fast or maybe the idea of a girly room. "Sorry I'm *cough* just not used to seeing girly things because Briar is well...you know...not girly."
