His Eyes about 11-final

his friends came running toward him saying that some Johnny guy called them and said Brian and Josh were on their way. Brad looked at me in a way that made me not feel safe. Like when a killer looks at someone their about to kill in horror movies. He gave me that kind of look and I remembered what he did to me in five minutes earlyer that day. He took a step toward me and I backed away. This made him mad. He grabbed my wrist and started dragging me to his truck. I screamed hoping someone could hear me. Stacy was tied up in the bed of the truck next to me, Brad threw me in the truck and I immediately tried to go for the passenger door. But one of Brad friends stepped in front of the door, as if to say, "You come through this door you’ll be dealing with me then." I scooted back to the drives side and looked out the window wondering what they would be doing to me. I watched the lift Stacy out of the truck over their shoulders and on the ground still tied up and they put tape over her mouth so she couldn’t scream. Then they got in their trucks. "Wait, what about me? Tie me up at less I’ll get out of being in pain!"

Brad opened the door to the drivers side and told me to sit in the middle. I wasn’t staying with them! I climbed over him and almost got away but this big guy came out of nowhere picking me up over his shoulder and giving me to Brad. Then Brad grabbed a rope tied me up and laid me down in the small backseat. Then Brad got in the back with me and the huge guy got in the drivers seat. I used my legs to help me look out the window. I could see Josh’s truck and the others right behind him come around the corner. I knew I had to stall Brad’s friends from leaving, so I covered the driver’s head with my hands as much as I could with my wrist tied together. He stopped the truck and slapped me and told Brad to control me. Brad grabbed me and pulled me into his lap. He uncovered the tape from my mouth and kissed me. It had not sparks and made me sick to my stomach. We passed Josh’s truck as he did that and I realized he did it so Brian would think I wanted to be with him. And that’s what Brian thought from the look on his face. I was still in view for Brian to see me and I pulled away from Brad and slapped him and screamed. I screamed so high pitch that the driver stopped the truck. I took a deep breath and did it again but in the drivers ear. He swung around and slapped me across the face. It stung bad, like when your legs of hands are cold and get slapped or you put hot water on it. Josh decided to ram the truck, and this scared everyone. I tried to get out but Brad held on to me. My legs and wrist were still tied so I was limited on getting away from Brad.

All of a sudden Josh hit the truck again and the guys jumped out and ran but Brad had another idea. He got out and pulled me along with him. Little did I know he had a pocket knife with him and he pulled it out. By now Brian and they guys were out of the trucks yelling at Brad to let me go. Brad turned to Brian and said, "If you don’t want me to slit her throat, then I advice you to follow what I say." \

Brian said with tears in his eyes, "I’ll do anything you say just," he paused, "don’t hurt her."

I knew Brian would do anything so I had to act on this with my own plan. So I whispered in Brad’s ear, " Hey babe can I talk to you alone?" He liked the sound of me calling him babe and agreed. We went behind the truck and I asked him if he’d untie me and the dumb ass did it. I began giving him a back message and telling him how I like how he’s doing anything to get me and I wanted to see if he would do it the whole time and I never liked Brian I just wanted him jealous. All a lie but hey he believed me. As soon as he turned to kiss me and wasn’t paying attention to the knife I grabbed it out of his hand. He was amazed at how I tricked him. I told him to walk over to Brian and give up. He said, " You know, I don’t think you would stab me. Come on princess I wouldn’t want you to get hurt, how about you give me the knife and just go home with me and we’ll forget this ever happen." I laughed, and looked him strait in the eyes, "Ok one, I have brothers and have learned to defend myself, and two I would never go home with you. So how about you get your ass over to Brian and give up." His jaw dropped at how I stood up to him. He slowly walked over to Brian and Brian was amazed that I didn’t need his help to get the knife.

After Brian bet up Brad and called the cops on him, we decided to continue our little sleep over in the football field. I walked over to Brian who was laying down on the air mattress. I climbed on top of him and tried to tickle him but he shifted his weight and somehow got on top of me and tickled me.

All of a sudden he stopped and we looked each other in the eyes and all of a sudden he......

leaned down and kissed me passionately. After a few minutes of kissing we decided lay down and get ready for bed. I changed into a tank top and shorts. I watched Brian take off his shirt and pants. He came over to the bed and got under the covers. I was sitting on my knees on top of th blanket next to him, watching how sexy he looked in just boxers. He looked at me and smiled. I smiled back, got under the blanket and laid my head on his chest. I could hear his heart beat. I began to rub my hands up and down his ab’s. His heart beat speeded up as I got lower on his stomach. I laughed to my-self. I looked up at him and he was giving me a funny face, wondering why I just laughed. I couldn’t help but laugh again.

"What in the hell are you laughing at girl," he asked trying not to laugh at me. I smiled.

"Its funny how when I get lower on your stomach," I demonstrated, "your heart beat goes fast but when I get higher on your chest," I moved my hand higher on his chest, "your heart rate goes back to normal." I looked up and him and smiled his face red me realizing his heart beat changing where my hands are.

"Well, if you were me and had an amazingly gorgeous girl rubbing her hand up and down your stomach your heart beat would go up to." He then did a smile that just showed he was up to something. His hand went from the top of my chest down to my lower thigh. I got butterflies in my stomach. He smiled and kissed me passionately moving his hand to my butt and pulled me up on top of him. We continued to kiss. I had never felt this way about a guy before. I had never felt so comfortable, so safe, so........ in love.

After kissing we eventually fell asleep. I woke up to the sun on half the bed. The other in shadow. I looked to see if Brian was asleep and sure enough he was. He looked so peaceful and so handsome when he slept. Of course he was handsome all the time. I kissed him on the cheek and leaned over and I looked at my phone and the time was 7am. Way to early for me, so I was about to go to sleep when I saw I wasn’t the only one up. Josh was sitting on one of the chairs is just boxers. I walked over and sat next to him. He looked at me and smiled.

"Good morning sunshine." He smiled. Our relationship so far felt like a close brother and sister at less a year apart. He pulled me close and gave me a hug. I looked over and Stacy who was still sleeping. I looked at Josh and its almost like he read my mind. " I woke up 10min. Ago I couldn’t get back to sleep after I woke up and saw how bright it was outside." I smiled.

"I got to hot with the sun, on the covers." I saw movement so I looked over at Brian, he was looking for me next to him, and once realizing I wasn’t there he looked around and got up when he saw me. He walked over to me with his eyes half shut. He sat behind me and I leaned on him. I kissed him on the cheek. He smiled and leaned down to give me a kiss.

"What time is it?" He asked. I smiled and said, "You’re going to whine when your hear." He smiled with his eyes nearly shut from how bright the sun was. "Its seven." I said and sure enough he whined.

"It’s to early...........why did you get me up?" He said smiling knowing I didn’t wake him up.

"What are you just looking for someone to blame for you getting up this early." I said sarcastically.

He leaned down and was about to kiss me and said, "Who else should I blame."

After everyone got up and dressed for the day we all decided to go out to breakfast. After breakfast we went back to the field picked up. Then we argued over what to do the rest of the day. We couldn’t come up with anything until someone said Stacy had a pool and no parents home. That made our decision right then. We all ran home to get stuff for swimming and another night away from home.

Once we got to Stacy’s we ordered pizza. And sat around watching t.v until it got there. Once we ate all our pizza, we went into the pool room. Us girls started hanging out and the boys jumped in. Josh snuck over to Stacy and picked her up and threw her in the pool. She was yelling and cussing at him the whole time. Then me and Megan looked at each other realizing we were next. We tried running out of the room but we didn’t realize Andrew behind the door. Brian caught me and started to take me to the pool. I bit him and he almost dropped me. He kept trying to throw me in but I had a tight grip on him. I smiled when he was about to give up but then he just jumped in himself with me attached. Once I came up for air Brian tried to pull me to him. I smiled and said, "You think im going to come to and just fall in your arms and kiss you when you threw me in the pool?"

He smiled at me and knew I wanted to do just that. So I swam over to him with a trick up my sleeve. I teased him like I was going to kiss him but pulling away then when I almost kissed him I ducked his head underwater, and swam away. He came up glaring at me. I sat on the side of the pool laughing.

"What did you think your were going to get a kiss?" He nodded, with a pout on his face. The I just started laughing at how funny he looked and he smile and yelled at me, "Stop laughing." I could help but keep laughing.

Then he came over to me and started tickling me. In between breaths I told him, "If you...wanted me....to stop laugh....ing then why are your.....tickling me..." He stopped and looked at me. I sat up and kissed him. Then he pulled me into the water, and I wrapped my legs around his waist. We kissed passionately why everyone was trying to get Megan in the pool. We didn’t have a care in the world.

Over the next few weeks me and Brian became inseparable. Going on dates meeting his family, and me and Stacy became even closer. When ever I wasn’t with Brian I was with her. Or even with both. Everything was great our Junior year had just ended and we out for summer. Life was perfect until.....

Life was perfect until.....

We found out Brad was coming back. We were in the diner and Brad walked in the door singing, "Guess who’s back, back again. Brad is back tell a friend." We all froze. It couldn’t be, they couldn’t just let him come back. He walked over to us and smiled.

Looking at me he said, "Did you guys miss me." It was funny because Stacy looked at him and said, "I don’t know about everyone else but I didn’t miss you one bit. I personally forgot you were still living." She smiled and him waiting for a reaction. He just stared at her then turned his head to me.

"I’ve missed you Tia." I just started laughing, as if I cared. "Tia, I’ve changed and I hope you see that. I hope that you will fall for me or at less be friends with me." He walked away. All of us amazed, he had just walked in and expected us to just invite him to be our friend.

Over the next few weeks were hell. Brad coming out of nowhere and talking to me and Stacy when Josh and Brian weren’t around.

One night Brian took me out and was going to purpose until Brad ruined it. Brian was not happy. Then another time me, Megan, and Stacy were having a girls lunch until brad and all his friends showed up. After 20 min. of them not leaving we just walked up and left the tab for them.

If was a nightmare, every where we went Brad was always there. Brian at one point screamed in Brad’s face to leave us alone. Brad just took it. He didn’t try to beat up Brian or anything. He would just look at me as if I was keeping him from going off on Brian. We just hoped Brad would eventually leave us alone.

Summer was almost over, and school would start soon. The nights and days slowly getting cooler but still warm.

I was in the passenger seat of my car, Brian was driving. The whole group was meeting at Six Flags. I had my flip-flops off and my feet on the seat. The windows down and the music off. It was a sunny day with no clouds in the sky. A warm breeze flowing threw the windows. I looked at Brian, with his eyes fixed on the road and his facial expression looking like he was thinking hard. I wanted to know what he was thinking. I knew he wanted to marry me but I got this feeling I didn’t want to him. He was perfect. He knew when I was sad, and always called or texted at the right time. My body fit his perfectly when hugging, but something felt wrong. There wasn’t sparks anymore when he kissed me. I didn’t crave his body against mine. We hadn’t made love in a while because the mood between us was never right. We began to fight more and more about stupid things.

He glanced at me, and smiled knowing I was thinking of him. But his smile slowly faded and he asked, "Anything wrong babe?" I shook my head no and looked out the window. I grabbed my phone and looked at the wallpaper. It was a picture of him and me back when we started getting serious. I was smiling in the picture. Him kissing my cheek.

I realized it was just a memory that had slowly faded, as if I had put it in a photo album that was stuck in some dust attic that no one went into. I put my phone back and turned on the radio. Looking out the window I wondered if me and Brian are meant to be. He just didn’t make me happy, I lost the butterflies in my stomach. I felt something missing from our relationship.

After hours at Six Flags, I drove home with Stacy and Megan. Having the guys and us girls in separate cars. I turned the music down and said out loud, "I don’t think me and Brian are working out. It doesn’t feel the same between us anymore."

The car was silent, I could see Stacy and Megan looking at each other in shock. I started to think if Stacy and Josh was the same way as us. So on the car ride home we talked about me and Brian and how Stacy and Josh’s relationships were going. By the time I got home I decided........

By the time I got home I decided......

To talk to Brian and see what he thinks. The truck pulled in next to my car. The guys got out laughing. Brian came over to me expecting me to jump into his arms. But he noticed the look on my face and just came over and kissed me on the cheek. He tried to walk away but I grabbed him and whispered in his ear, "I need to talk to you alone!"

He pulled away and I could just tell by his expression the he knew it wasn’t good. So we went on a walk my arm locked with his. I never held his hand when what we were talking about was important.

We stopped at a little park and sat down on a bench. He looked in my eyes, and oh his eyes were messing up my thoughts so I looked away.

"Brian, do you feel the change between us. I have and its making us not feel right."

His eyes watered up, thinking it was over right then and there.

"You know, I have noticed. But yes us feels weird but we can fix it." He was always looking on the bright side. It made me sick sometimes but when I needed it, he was always there.

"Tia, I think we should take a break." My jaw dropped, was he just waiting for me to say something so he didn’t have to. I turned away, I couldn’t look in his eyes anymore.

When I looked back at him he was still looking at me. I nodded my head, and got up and walked down the path. I wasn’t planing on breaking up with him, I just wanted to see if he felt the same way, but I didn’t want this. So I just kept walking. The sun was almost fully set, I sat down and just cried my eyes out. Then I felt and hand on my shoulder I jumped. I found my self looking Brad in the eyes. He wiped the tears from my face, and seemed sad to see me this way. He took me in for a hug, I was in no position to pull away. I melted into his arms. I could hear his heart beat in his chest. He put his hands on my arms and pulled away, and said, "Lets keep walking and you can tell me what made you cry." I nodded and we walked and I told him the whole story.

By the time I got back to Stacy’s place everyone was inside but Brian. He was waiting at my car for me and when he looked up to find me with Brad his eyes filled with rage. I hugged Brad goodbye and thanked him for listening to my dumb drama.

When he left Brian came over to me and said, "What the hell were you doing with him?" I looked at him shocked, smiled and said, "Wouldn’t you like to know."

I started to walk away but he grabbed my arm and spun me around to look at him. His eyes full of pain, "Babe, I don’t want to take a break," he said quietly, "I was just afraid you were going to end up right then and there but we you left crying I realized you just want to know how I felt. I want to be with you but when I see you with Brad..." I put my hand on his mouth and stopped him.

"Brian, I wasn’t going to break up with you and you should know that. Now the thing about Brad is he was there when I needed someone. He had me tell him what was going on and comforted me. Now if I wasn’t crying over a dick head move you pulled then I would have gone to you. But its kinda hard to run to the person your crying over." And with that I walked inside leaving him standing there speechless.

I walked in the door, right as Stacy hung up the phone for pizza. She looked at me and with her body language she told me to follow her. When we got to her room, she had me spill about what happened.

When we heard the door bell ring, we rushed down stairs. Everyone dove into the pizza. Brian kept looking at me, and all of a sudden he came over to me. And his mouth close to my ear, "Baby girl, I’m sorry. Please take me back. Not even being able to tell my self your mine is driving me crazy." I turned my head and looked in his eyes. They were full of tears. I mouthed, Lets go outside. He nodded and we told everyone we’d be back. As the door shut I grabbed his hand and led him into the street.

"Baby we could get hit." I just smiled and looked around, no car but the parked one’s in sight. He started laughing at himself.

"Listen Brian," I walked close to him and grabbed his belt loops, "I want to know if you think we can fix this relationship and make it go back to the way it was when we first started going out." I looked him in the eyes. He was thinking hard.

"TIA, I think we can but what about you?"

I just grabbed his face and kissed him passionately. Once I was done I whispered in his ear, "What do you think?" He tried to lean in for more but I ran away. He started to chance after me. We ran all the way to the park down the street. He tackled me into the grass climbing on top of me. Grinding our middles in the process. I think he was teasing me. I grabbed the back of his neck and we kissed passionately. His tongue intertwined with mine.

All of a sudden we heard a bunch of gun shots coming in the direction of Stacy’s house. We sat up and heard the squeal of tires driving away. We ran to Stacy’s house and found everyone yelling and surrounding.................

We ran to Stacy’s house and found everyone yelling and surrounding.................

Megan, she had blood coming out the corner of her mouth. Andrew holding her in his arms, crying out for her not to die.

That night was a long night. At around 4 in the morning, we found out, Megan would survive but would have to go threw a lot to be 100% better. The bullet missed major organs by 1 inch.

Me and Brian had one question on our mind, Who did this?

I walked over to Andrew and asked him. He shook his head, "T I am not sure. I think it was one of Brads friends. I sold them bad ‘stuff’"

As soon as I heard that word I knew this wouldn’t be over. When I first met Andrew he as getting into major drug dealing, but around this last Christmas he stopped. People wouldn’t leave him alone to start again, so he got back in but only for a month. He made more money in that month then any other time.

He just put his head in his hands. I went home with Brian and as he got in bed I crawled over to him. Sitting on top of him. I kissed his neck and I knew that drove him crazy. We soon made love. Around two hours later we fell asleep in each others arms.

The next day it was raining and it would not let up.

Over the next few months it was school, drama, fights, Megan getting out of the hospital, and Brian.

It was crazy and soon melted away when Christmas came. I was in Brian’s bathroom getting ready when his voice screamed "Tia!!!" I ran into his room and there was rose petals leading to an intercom. All of a sudden he said, "Babe follow the roes petals and it will lead you to a surprise. And I did. It lead me outside to the hot tube. In the hot tub was Brian and something floating. I went over to Brian and he pulled me in. I was yelling at him about how I had my clothes on when I realized, what was floating in the water. It was......

It was a black ring box floating on those cup holders for in the water. It spun around because of the jets and there it was. An amazing engagement ring. It was silver and had a diamond in the middle and two smaller ones on each side. My jaw was open and I couldn’t take my eyes off of it. I looked at Brian who was smiling happy it got a good reaction out of me. He reached over to the box and pulled the ring out.

"Babe, I love you so much and I all I want for Christmas is you."

"Brian I....." I was speech-less. Over the time from our short break up to now we had come so far. We barley fought and if we did it was for the make up sex.

He held the ring to the tip of my finger. Since I couldn’t talk I just slid my finger onto the ring and turned my head to face him. We then made out in the hot tube. With snow falling around us and me fully clothed. This was the best Christmas present ever.

When we got out of the hot tub I had to get dressed and ready all over again. I hit Brian for it. He just smiled and kissed my cheek. We than opened presents with his family, told them our news and once it became 6. We went to Stacy’s house for the groups own Christmas. Like always Stacy’s parents weren’t there so the whole group decided to sleep there.

We sat around the table full of gifts for each other. I told everyone to separate the gifts by who they went to so it would be easy. I got gift cards from Stacy and Josh to Starbucks and to have a spa day. Brian got a new wallet, which he needed, and a gift card to his favorite restaurant. From Megan and Andrew we both got 100 dollars. It was easy and nice. Brian then turned to me. We shared our news with everyone. As the girls were looking at the ring and "ooooooooo," and "awwwwwwwwwing." Brian said aloud, "And babe if you thought that was all your wrong." I looked at him, what more could he give me. He the pulled out of his pocket, a necklace that matched the ring. The only difference was the middle diamond was shaped as a heart.

I looked at Brian as Stacy put it on and mouthed, You didn’t have to do this. He just smiled and nodded his head.

It was graduation, and I couldn’t have been more happy. Me and Brian had already found a house, and Stacy was two months pregnant, and she called me the baby’s aunt.

With my name being called I looked out into the crowd. Brian smiling at me and all my friends happier than ever. My life had done a complete 180.

Now all I had to do was tell Brian I was pregnant!
