I woke up to an empty bed.

I turned expecting him to be there next to me but he just wasn't.

I knew it.

I knew he used me, why did you fall for this!

The door opened.

He was standing in the doorway.

"Mia! I-I'm sorry!"Brandon shut the door loud.

It took me a moment to realize that I was naked and exposed.

I looked down and suddenly my face flushed red.

My breasts were out and exposed.

My sheets only covered the bottom half of me.

"Oh sh-" I was cut off by the sound of knocking.

"Hey, Mia? Are you decent?" Brandon's voice echoed through the door.

"Uh, hold on."

I quickly jumped up and dressed in my pajamas again.

I opened the door.

"Yes?" I asked.

"Um, yeah I w-was-" I cut Brandon off.

"Brandon my face is up here."

He was staring at my breasts even though I was covered now I didn't have a bra on.

I crossed my arms up to my chest and he flushed.

"Sorry. I didn't mean to I swear." He apologized sincerely, "it's just that, Mia can you put a bra on please? I can't talk to you, your-your boobs are, just go and change please." Hen it his lip and turned around.

"My breasts shouldn't be a distraction to you." I was flaming with anger.

I shut the door and changed into more decent clothing.

I put on my outfit for the day with some uggs.

I opened the door again, and to my surprise he was still there.

"Look Mia, I apologize." He started.

"I don't care. Just, why'd you budge in my room like that?" I questioned.

"I just wanted to see if Josh was in there."

"Well he's not." I stated firmly.

"Yeah I can see that. But he sure as hell was here last night."

"That's honestly none of your business Brandon."

"Okay. Fine. But I still want to know if he was here last night."

"Why?"

"That's honestly none of your business Mia." He mocked.

I rolled my eyes.

I lied.

"I haven't seen him." I said.

He looked relieved.

I wasn't stupid and I could see Brandon had feelings for me but I tried to shrug him off because I didn't want to give him the wrong impression or make feel down.

"Well, I better go find him." He said.

He turned to leave.

"Hey Brandon, why are you looking for him?" I asked.

"Just. I'll se you around okay?" He said.

I nodded and smiled.

I went downstairs instead to eat breakfast even though it was three in the afternoon.

"Someone slept well." My aunt smiled.

"Yeah." I said.

You have no idea. I thought.

My aunt and I aren't as close as I hoped we would be.

We hardly acknowledge each other and when we do it's kind of forced.

"I'm going out in the garden just in case you need me." I said to her, even though I knew that at no point would she need me.

I walked out through the back door and just walked.

I saw josh planting some seeds into the ground.

I had completely forgotten that Josh worked out in the garden and suddenly I felt a stream of shame come down on me because I had blamed josh for leading me on.

I turned to leave because I couldn't face him with the guilt I felt but it was too late.

He spotted me and almost instantly smirked.

I couldn't resist and smiled shyly.

He walked over to me.

He stood right in front of me just inches away from my face.

"You slept well."

I blushed as he said that.

"Yeah, whatever." I rolled my eyes.

"I shouldn't be around you, I have dirt on my gloves." He said.

"Take them off." I said.

He smirked and chuckled.

"Why, so my hands can explore?" He winked.

I had never seen him act like this and it honestly turned me on.

"Maybe." I shrugged.

He leaned in for a kiss.

I stopped him.

He looked confused.

"Keep it professional, you're working." I said teasingly.

"Okay, okay." He said and gave me a peck on the cheek.

"I wish I could feel more." I thought out loud.

Oh no Mia what did you do?

He laughed.

"I wish I could do more." He but his lip. Looked me up and down, then winked.

He inched closer but this time to my ear.

"I love you."

My heart burst and I could not explain the feelings I had.

I didn't want to have sex.

I didn't want to have physical contact.

I wanted to be near him.

I longed for his presence.

"I have to go." I said.

He frowned.

I whispered in his ear.

"I love you, Josh."

I walked away.

"You look good." He said.

"Stop staring at my ass!" I said.

I knew he was, but I didn't care.

I had something special planned.

On my way inside I found Brandon.

"Oh, hey. Josh is outside." I said.

"I know." He said bluntly.

"Oh."

"If you didn't want me Mia, then why lead me on?" He asked sincerely.

"What?"

He looked behind me and I turned.

Josh was smirking at Brandon and then his smirk went away when he saw me looking.

My face was red.

He used me.

And then I doubted him.

He ran this way.

I turned to Brandon.

"I'm sorry." I kissed him on the cheek and walked out of the front door.

I speed walked.

I couldn't believe it.

"Mia!" Josh yelled.

He didn't run out of the house.

I knew he couldn't.

He would get fired.

I kept walking.

I reached a park I had never seen before.

And I thought about Josh.

I thought of what he had told me earlier.

I wondered what life would be like with just him and I.

I loved him, I did.

I didn't know and I was scared of the thought, but I felt ready.

Hey guys!

Next chapter will come next week!

Maybe Monday I'm not sure, but I was going to announce that I wanted to redo this book over.

I will still keep this version up but I want to do it over because this book is just CRAP.

And I would do a much better job doing it over.

I'm all over the place with this book.

I really need feedback because if not than this book will just not be finished. :(
