If she knew

Chapter Two.

    As Azalynne pulls into his driveway, she see's a few more cars along side the sidewalk. She pulls in and turns off the car. She sits for a min before getting out. Before she could make it to the porch, Nancy comes out and embraces her in a hug. 

"We are so glad you made it. We was getting worried about you." Nancy said as she lets go and starts guiding her to the door. 

"Yea. I just needed some time to accept this. Honestly, I'm not sure if I'll be able to." Azalynne responded heading in the door. 

"None of us will for a long time. Make yourself at home, come to the kitchen when you are ready." Nancy said as she gave her one last hug and headed to the kitchen.

Azalynne just stood in the main hall of the house looking around. The house feels empty and strange, she shivers as if there was a cold draft in the hall. To her right is the closet, to her left is the entrance to the living room that also leads to the kitchen. Ahead of her is the stairs that led up to the second floor. The floor where Brian and his parents rooms are. 

 She hangs her coat in the closet then begins to walk down the hall to the stairs. She closes her eyes as she steps on the first step. Then opens them to continue up the stairs. She holds on to the cherry oak railing, she always loved the way they shined. 

 She stops at the top of the stair case. She looks to her left, down the short hall is Nancy's and Gary's room. It's huge, 3 king size bed's could fit in that room. Beside their room is the second full bathroom. It too was big. It was beautiful like the one's out of those house magazine's. Two person sink, a small room for the toilet then the shower/tub on the opposite side.  To her left is Brian's room. She takes a deep breath and starts walking to his room. 

She stops at his door. 'KNOCK BEFORE ENTERING. YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU MIGHT SEE.'

That sign always made her laugh, she never knocked before walking in. Yea she saw way more than she ever wanted to see, but it never bothered her. She didn't see him like that. In fact he had seen her naked a few times. Always by "Accident". They would laugh it off. 

She decided this time she was going to knock. *Knocks on the door* "Brian I'm coming in. I don't want to see no ghost ass now." She said as she walked in chuckling. His room was always a mess. Clothes all over the floor, bed a mess, clothes half in the dresser, half out. Papers all over his desk where he does his "business man things". She makes her way to his bed and lays down. 

She could still smell his scent. She breaths in taking in his smell. She always loved the way he smelled. He never wore any kind of sprays. Just showered and let the natural scent flow. She wrapped her self up in his Batman blankets and just laid there. 

"Uh.. Oh B, I'm finally in your bed. What you going to do?" She said out loud trying to make herself laugh. "You always picked how nice it'd be to wake up to me in your bed. Well here I am." She continues

As she's laying there smiling, wrapped up in his blankets, she feels a warm, cool breeze brush across her cheeks, as if someone is caressing it. She jumps up alarmed. "What the f**k was that?!" She mutters out. 

"Oh hell no Brian. You're not going to f**k with me on your day? Nope. I love you bunches. But watch me from afar." She said as she walked out his room. 

As she walks in the kitchen still trying to wrap her head around on what just happened, she is greeted by Nancy and Gary. 

"Well there is our sweet girl." Gary says as he walks up to her. "We was just telling Bobby and Kelly how you and Brian used to run around causing trouble and silently breaking hearts." He continues smiling. " Hey do you remember when that one girl, oh, what's her name, oh, Nancy, what was that crazy girls name." 

"OH! SOPHIE!" She replied back beginning to laugh. 

"Yea, her. Remember when she stalked ya'll for weeks, because she was obsessed with Brian and swore you guys were a thing." He said laughing. "We had to change our locks and number. That girl went crazy. She went even more crazy when she found out they wasn't a couple and started to harass Azalynne here." Gary said as he wrapped his arm around her. "When Brian found out about Sophie punching Azalynne in the locker room. He lost it. He called her everything but her name. She finally left both of them alone, when he threatened to get a restraining order on her." He laughed. 

Azalynne chuckled as she remembered that day. Brian was always protective over her. She walks over to the center island in the kitchen and looked at all the food. She had been grieving all day she forgot to eat. Honestly, she was starving, but just couldn't handle food right now. 

"Can I stay here tonight?" Azalynne asked interrupting the conversation. 

"Ofcourse. You know this is your home as well." Nancy gushed as she came to her. "I'll make you up a bed on the couch."

"No actually I want to stay in Brians room tonight." Azalynne said, looking at the surprise look on everyone's faces. 

"That's fine with me." Gary said breaking the silence. 

"Thank you. I'm actually really tired. If you don't mind I'm going to head up and rest." Azalynne responded as she made her way to everyone. Hugging them and saying goodnight. 

"Goodnight" Everyone said back to her. 

She made her way to Brian's room. Opened his dresser and grabbed one of his shirts to throw over as a night gown. She laid down wrapping herself in his blankets once more and tears streamed down her face once more. "This wasn't supposed to be like this." She said through her tears. "We had so much more to do together. Why didn't you just listen to me?" She continued out loud. " You wasn't supposed to leave me!" Angry she got up and threw his pillow at the wall. She fell to her knees. "You wasn't supposed to leave me" She said quietly. She sat there crying for 10 more minutes, got up, walked over picked the pillow up, then went and laid back down. Before she knew it. She was sound asleep.
