A/N: Hey guys! So, here is my newest story. I was inspired after watching an old episode of One Tree Hill and my love for Brathan (Brooke & Nathan) whose characters I consider to be very similar to Connie and Dean. I hope you like and please, please REVIEW!
"How does this one look on me, Guy?" Connie Moreau asked her boyfriend, as she stepped out of the dressing room.
"It looks fine, same as the others." He sighed and she frowned.
"You know, you could be a little more enthusiastic, Guy," She said, folding her arms over her chest.
He looked up at her. "How? You know I hate shopping, couldn't you do this with Tammy or something?" He asked and she shook her head.
"Tammy had figure skating practice and you're my boyfriend," She said. "I just want to make you sure you like what I'm wearing…" She trailed and he sighed, standing up.
He walked over to her and cupped her face in his hands. "You always look beautiful to me, Connie, no matter what you're wearing," He told her and she blushed, smiling. "I love you, OK?"
She nodded. "I love you too," She said, with a smile. "Let me go change and we'll go to a movie or something, how 'bout that?" She offered and he nodded, watching her run back into the dressing room.
Julie Gaffney walked over to her locker and groaned once she saw Dean Portman leaning against it.
"What do you want?" She asked, walking over to him.
He smirked, knowing he had already gotten under her skin. "Can't a guy just stop by to say hi to the girl he likes?" He asked and she looked at him.
"You don't like me, Dean, you just want to sleep with me," She said, pushing him aside so she could open her locker.
"Well, that's half true, I do want to sleep with you," He said and she rolled her eyes. "But that's not all, come on, Jules, everyone knows you like me."
She frowned at him. "Well, everyone's wrong because I don't!"
He laughed. "OK, sure," He said and she sighed.
"You know, Dean, why don't you keep yourself busy and go find another little freshman instead of bugging me all the time?" She asked and he pretending to wince in pain.
"Are you going to hold that against me forever?" He asked. "I only slept with her twice, you know," Dean said and Julie raised an eyebrow. "OK, maybe three times, but who's counting?" Julie groaned and closed her locker, walking away. Dean followed her. "Why do you care who I sleep with, anyway? Are you jealous?"
Julie laughed. "You wish!" She said, as she kept walking. "I happen to be seeing someone, so if you're sleeping with the whole cheerleading team, I really wouldn't care!" She shouted and he laughed.
"So, you're seeing someone now?" He asked and she nodded. "Please don't tell me it's that jackass, Scooter, again, because that would seriously suck."
"It's not," She informed him.
He nodded. "So it's someone new," He said and she nodded again. "Anyone I know?" He asked and she looked at him nervously.
"Uh, I don't know, maybe," She said, and checked her watch. "I've got to go… I'm meeting him now, so bye!" She said, scurrying off.
He laughed and watched her go, still wondering who this new guy she was seeing was.
He pushed her on the bed and began undoing her blouse. She giggled, kissing his neck and he moaned, telling her how much he liked it when she did that.
"You're beautiful," He whispered, as he pealed off her top. "You've always been beautiful, I was just an idiot not to see it," He said and she smiled, kissing him.
"Well, I'm glad you finally realized it," She giggled and he smiled as he entered her. "God, you're really good at that." She whispered and he laughed.
"Yeah, you'd think I'd have had tons of practice or something," He said. "But Connie, she's set on being a virgin until she's married." He said and the girl pulled away. "Crap, Julie, I'm sorry."
She shook her head. "No, Guy, it's OK," She said, putting her clothes back on.
He sighed. "I didn't mean to bring her up, it just slipped out… I'm sorry." He said and she nodded, standing up. "Please don't go, Julie."
She turned around, "I thought you wanted to be with me." She said and he sighed.
"I do want to be with you."
"Then why are you still with her? Making me sneak around, looking like an idiot!" She shouted and he looked away. "Make up your mind!"
"Julie, it's not that easy," He said. "I love her," He said and she glared at him. "Not like I love you, I'm in love with you, but Connie… she's been great to me, I can't just hurt her like that."
She nodded understandingly. "I guess you're right," She said and he walked over to her, wrapping his arms around her waist.
"Why don't we get back to what we were doing, huh?" He asked, kissing her neck and she smiled.
"I wish we could, but I've got homework to do," She said and he frowned. "Don't look so sad," She said, kissing him. "We'll pick up where we left off tomorrow." She said, kissing him again and leaving.
The phone began ringing and he spun around. Not wanting to answer it, he let the machine get it.
Putting his clothes back on, he listened as Connie's voice appeared on his machine. "Hi Guy," Her cheery voice said. "I don't know where you are, you kind of disappeared after we got back from the movie, but I just wanted to make sure you were OK, I can't wait to see you again tomorrow, and I love you, bye."
He sighed, running his fingers through his hair. How could he have possibly wanted to be with Julie when he already had such a great girl like Connie?"
