Mia's P.O.V.
RaRa, Brahms and myself are walking around the small carnival that opened up for the weekend. It's been a month since Brahms kissed my cheek and he's been acting stranger around me. He is more closer to me, wanting to hug me and hold my hands almost all the time. I find it super weird.
"Mia, let's go on this one!" RaRa pointed at the roller coaster that they had. "You know how I feel about those, RaRa." She sighed,'opps, I forgot. I'm sorry. Do you mind if I ride it real quick then?" She side hugged me. "No, I don't mind. Go and have fun." I smiled at her. "I'll stay here with you." Brahms spoke up. "Yay! Okay, I'll be back.!" RaRa ran to the line.
I looked around, feeling awkward with him now. "Mia, listen. I'm sorry about the other day. I didn't realized that it made you that uncomfortable. I promise I won't do it anymore." He had a sorry look on his face. I didn't even see he had one arms behind his back, but he looked so cute I couldn't stop myself from forgiving him. "It's okay, Brahmsy." I hugged him. "I forgive you." He hugged me back,'Brahmsy, huh? Well maybe I need to give you a nickname as well." He told her, walking up to a booth.
"What kind of nickname?" I questioned him. He made a thinking face,'I'll come up with one. It's has to be one where I only call you it, though." As we past some booths a couple feet away from the ride RaRa was on, some bubbles appeared from a booth. I started popping some here and there. "I got it." I turned to look at him. "Bubba, like bubbles but shorter." He smiled at me. "I like it." Smiling back at him.
"Three dollars, all you gotta do is knock down all three bottles to win a prize!" Brahms gave him three dollars and I wished him luck. "Bubba, luck is for suckers." He winked at me and knocked them all down with a hard throw. "Yayy, Brahmsy!!" I clapped and hugged him. "You pick the prize, Bubba." I looked and saw the cutest teddy bear. "That one." I said pointing to the one at the end.
After RaRa got off the ride, we felt so tired, so we went to go find their parents and of course, I had a sleepover with RaRa. Her bed is big enough for me and her, cuddling up next to my new bear, we both fell fast asleep
*Flashback over*
Mia's P.O.V.
I was only 9, Brahms was 11, I forgot about my nickname to him but my nickname was stuck with him. I always thought he would grow out of it but nope. Now he just gets mad if anyone else says it. I turned to look at him but he was focus on the movie, which was weird considering he doesn't watch these kind of movies. I turned away from him, seeing we were out of popcorn, I grabbed the bowl and went to the kitchen.
I grabbed the extra popcorn and poured it in the bowl, throwing away the empty bag. I got myself another drink and turned back around. I almost screamed when I bumped into Brahms. He place his hand on my mouth,'shh." Pointing to the living room, he basically told me to have a glance and there, two of my best friends, were cuddling up staring into each others eyes. I knew it.
I looked up at Brahms and saw him smirking. "My planned worked, he finally worked up the courage." He whispered to me. "Let's go to the balcony and have us a talk about the last three months." He told me, grabbing the bowl of popcorn and my left hand and I grabbed my drink. He opened the door, he let me exit first and close the door behind him. I can't believe the day went by so fast, even if me and RaRa woke up at 12:40pm. I sat down and he sat next to me, setting the popcorn down on the little table we had out here. "I can't believe it's already 7:45." I said glancing at the sunset.
"You've always loved the sunsets or the sunrise." I looked at him and smiled. "Yeah, it just feels relaxing glancing at it." I opened up my can of sprite and took a sip. "So, how was England? Even if you went for work, did you still had fun?" I faced him as he took a sip from my drink. "Yeah, I did. The company is finally gonna open a shop down there, so it went pretty good. The only sight seeing I did was the view of each building I went to. Moving part of the company out there wasn't easy, but was fun as I learned a new experience. Maybe, one day I can take you with me."
"Maybe, but I do have school, Brahmsy." I didn't realized what I called him until he glanced at me with a shock face. "Wow, I haven't heard you call me that since you were 12." I smiled at him, 'well, I'm back on it." I laughed and smiled. "That's great, Bubba." He put an arm around me and I leaned into him and we fell into a nice silence. This feeling is when I feel like I do have a crush on him, even though sometimes he does annoy me, he does make me laugh, he makes me feel wanted and he even protects me. Even when I told him about my heart problems, he didn't change his personality with me.
"Hey, you okay?" He glanced down on me. "Yeah, I'm fine." I smiled at him "Just thinking about some things. Like, how we met, how protected you were of me, even scared off Kelly when she tried to bully me when I first entered the new school." I glanced at our view. "You were always so charming with me, why?" I looked up at him. He was silent for a while.
"Because, to be incredibly honest, from the moment I first met you, you captured my heart and I fell hard liking you. It wasn't until I was 15 I knew I was in love with you." He smiled lightly at me. "Your brown eyes, your cute smile, angelic laughter. I even threatened Billiam to stay away from you one time cause he told me he liked you." He fell silent again, then continued. "I wanted you to be my first girlfriend, my first kiss just everything first."
I sat up, 'is that why you rejected Katie and she blamed me?" I looked at him. "I rejected more than ten girls for you." He glanced into my eyes. I didn't know that, I couldn't believe my ears. "So, you do like me, then? As more than a sister?" I questioned him.
He smiled a bit, 'yeah, well, now it's more like love." He shyly looked away. "I always wanted to tell you but never had a perfect chance. I would always choke up or RaRa would interrupt us or just something else like that."
"When I left for work these past months, I couldn't really focus cause I was always thinking of you, wondering if you found someone and I lost all my chances, just thinking the absolute worst." He glanced over at me, weakly smiling at me, 'whenever I called RaRa, when I had the chance, I would asked to talk to you but were either at school or sleeping or visiting your parents."
My heart skipped a beat when he said that, he was thinking of me? I barely had time to talk to RaRa or my family let alone get a boyfriend. Right now, I was on a search for a job and kept my focus on school. "Yeah, sorry. I was studying really hard for the finals from the past semester, which I past by the way." I smiled at him and he smiled back. "I'm glad you past." He pulled me in so I could lay on his right shoulder.
We stayed silent for a while, hearing cars past us by, admiring the lights of the city. "I love this view, whenever I wanna listen to music with my earphones during the day or stay silent, relaxing my mind during the night. It seriously feels therapeutic." I told him. "It does, it really feels calming." He told me softly.
Feeling the bit of breeze that past by, I grabbed the little blanket we kept out here and put it on top of us. "You really love the balcony, don't you?" He smirked softly at me. "Yes, I do." I smirked back at him and we just stared into each others eyes, not saying a word. "Mia?" He whispered. "Hm?" He looked at my lips. "Have you had your first kiss yet?" He wondered, looking back into my eyes. I shook my head no. "No, I haven't. Have you?" I whispered, glancing at his lips, so full and kissable. "No."
We leaned closer to each other, 'Brahmsy?" He kept glancing at my lips. "Yes, bubba." So I looked down at his lips. "Kiss me." I whispered. It didn't take long for him to do so. He captured my lips and I just felt like I was in heaven, my heaven. His lips felt so perfect and that's when I knew that having a crush on Brahms wasn't so bad. Pulling back, his eyes met mine.
"This was so worth the wait." He whispered, smiling at me and I giggled silently back. We stayed out here for a while more until we both felt really tired. Entering back into the apartment, locking the balcony doors, we went to the living room but paused when we saw RaRa cuddled up, sleeping in Kevin's arms. "That's too cute." I told Brahmsy, whispering. He hugged me from behind, 'yeah, but we are cuter." He whispered back in my ear. I giggled but I stopped when we saw Kevin shift a little but didn't wake up. Whew.
Part three, complete.
