did it, no longer interested in anything she had to offer.
"I didn't want any more of your little dick anyway. I barely knew you were inside me." She tossed the words at him out of spite as she left his room, slamming the door.
All Brandon could do was flip off the door that she had just walked through, even though the woman wouldn't know he had done it. He didn't care. He was getting Kaylee back! He lay in bed for a few minutes, planning out their night. With any luck, by the end of the night, she'd be head over heels for him again.
The day seemed to crawl by. Brandon tried to stay busy, but the entire band was taking a day off, and nobody wanted to talk to him. In fact, most of them were busy until dinnertime nursing their hangovers. Kaylee hung out in her room, sleeping on and off, then dozing in one of her rare bubble baths. When Brandon showed up at her door right on time, she was more than ready for their date.
After a romantic night of dinner and a moonlit stroll, Brandon brought Kaylee back to her room. He knew that he couldn't push her too far yet, so he had to keep everything fairly innocent. He leaned down to give her a goodnight kiss, a simple PG kiss, but Kaylee had other ideas. As she ran her fingers through his hair, she deepened the kiss, tangling her tongue with his.
Brandon moaned as her kiss spread excitement throughout his body. He wanted her - now. He wanted her right here, right now, without any regard to who might see. It was a moment of pure bliss that was suddenly shattered by a passing intruder.
"Mmm, she sure is a good kisser, huh?" Ashton asked, when he stumbled upon the couple making out as he left his room. "Don't you just love that thing she does with her tongue? Hell, that even gets me weak in the knees. You'd never know she was still a virgin with the expertise she shows."
"Ashton!" Kaylee yelled, stunned.
Brandon looked to Kaylee for answers, and found her bowing her head, and shaking it softly. Her face was glowing red. She couldn't meet Ashton's eyes - she wanted to melt into the floor and disappear. She was both embarrassed and angry.
"How the hell would you know, Ashton?" Brandon growled.
Kaylee's head shot up to look at Ashton. It wasn't necessarily a secret that they had kissed, especially since it was on national television during the awards show. But she didn't think he needed to rub it in Brandon's face.
"Oh, I know . Trust me, I know," Ashton said, and winked at Kaylee as he passed by them.
"What was that all about?" Brandon asked after Ashton had disappeared.
"Who knows?" Kaylee lied. "Well, thanks for tonight. Goodnight," she said and fumbled her way into her room, shutting Brandon out in the hall with a quick click of the lock.
As much as Kaylee hated Ashton at that moment, she was also glad he had come along when he did. She was getting in over her head with Brandon, and she didn't know how to end it without completely brushing him off. As hard as she tried to like Brandon, she just didn't feel that spark with him. Tonight was an attempt at finding that spark, but it just wasn't there. She was starting to realize that she couldn't light a fire if there was nothing there to light it with in the first place.
Sure, he was a nice guy, and he wasn't lacking in the looks department, but some things just didn't add up with him. She couldn't put her finger on it, but sometimes about Brandon made her uneasy. It wasn't so much his inaction when she was almost raped that bothered her anymore - she had come to terms with that. Now it was something completely different, and she thought that maybe they just weren't compatible. Kaylee was giving it her best shot, but there was something...
She shook her head. This had to work. She was tired of being alone, and it was starting to affect her judgment, like it had last night with Ashton. Finding new resolve, she promised herself that she was going to make it work this time, even if her feelings for Brandon were less than stellar. Feelings would grow over time - that's how it worked, right?
She went into the bathroom and drew herself a bath, adding
