CRYSTALI sat there in Brook's car trying to figure out his good mood but I couldn't figure it out. It is starting to scare me a little at how happy he is. I don't think he was this happy when I said I would forgive him. I didn't want to push him by asking so I kept quiet. I am happy to hear that Jonah finally talked to the girl he likes. I think if they date he will be a good boyfriend. He is such a good friend to me and I have yet to see any signs of him being a jerk towards girls. I asked Brooks where we were going and he said where ever Jonah and I wanted to go eat. I said it was up to Jonah. Jonah picked the hibachi grill. I was fine with that and so was Brooks. On the way there, I asked Brooks how he had the money to keep taking us out to eat and how he had money to buy me gifts. He laughed and said,"I get a monthly check from the Marines baby. I don't have any bills to pay except my phone bill and insurance on my car so what I don't spend in bills goes into my savings account.

BROOKSSeeing her face light up when she saw the inside of the house made this day so much more special. I knew the moment I saw the inside pictures that this was the house for me and for us. It is simple yet it has arched doorways and barn wood bookshelves in the living room, It has a garden tub in the master bath with a glass stand-up shower with bench, Hardwood floors except in the bedrooms and a double closet in the master bedroom. The guest room has a bathroom in it and has a spacious closet. In the foyer by the door there is a half bath or powder room as I've heard it called before. The backyard has a privacy fence all the way around it and there is a hot tub on the porch. There is a stone firepit in the yard and a stone grill built off the side of the porch. It's private and that's what I wanted. I can play in the garage and even make a little man cave in there or I can make Crystal an area for writing. I have so many ideas and I can not wait until we can bring them to life tog

CRYSTALWhen I went inside after Brooks dropped me off, My dad was sitting on the couch. I said hey to him and went to my room. I was getting some clothes so I could go take a shower when I heard a knock at my door. I opened the door and my dad asked if we could talk. I turned my back and rolled my eyes as I threw my clothes on my bed. I walked out of my room and into the living room and sat down on the loveseat. My dad sat down on the couch and said,“Crystal, I know you are upset. I know you have been staying out so you don't have to talk about the other day. We need to talk about it though sweetheart."I said I'm fine dad. You are dating now and you were afraid I'd freak out. I get it. He sighed and said,"Just the tone of your voice while saying you are fine tells me you aren't Crystal. If you aren't ok with it tell me. I'm not saying I will stop dating Viola because I really enjoy her company. She is a very nice woman Crystal and if you would allow her to get to know you, you wo

BROOKSAfter walking Crystal home, I couldn't sleep. I kept thinking about how she didn't say she loved me before I walked away. I went and sat on the back porch until the sun came up. I have been up all night trying to figure out what caused her to slip back into this state of mind. I can't think of anything I did, unless it was the house and what happened there. I don't think anything is going to happen. I'm pretty sure nothing came out until I pulled out. Damnit. I am always careful. Why didn't I think to put one on this time? F*CK! I said out loud. Yesterday was supposed to be a happy day for me and for her but I f*cked that up. I always do. I went inside and got dressed. I told Jonah I was going out for the day and I wouldn't be back until later tonight. He asked where I was going and I told him I had some things to do for the shop. I left the house and headed to my house. I didn't know what I was going to do when I got there but it was my place and I needed my own space to think

CRYSTALI hung up the phone on Brooks and screamed. I am so damn mad at him right now. Thankfully my dad isn't home otherwise he would be coming in at any moment asking what's wrong. I feel as if I am on the verge of a breakdown so I grab my prescription and take one of my pills. Why does do this? I didn't want to tell him what was wrong with me. I wanted to work it out on my own but no. He wouldn't leave me in the field to deal with my issues. He had to ask me to tell him what was going on. I open up and am honest and he can't handle hearing what I said so he runs off and gets drunk. My phone rings and I see his name. I ignore it. I put it on do not disturb. Then I get a text. I didn't even open it. What in the hell is wrong with him? As much as I want to answer and curse him out again, I told him not to call me again. I doubt he is stupid enough to drive like that so I guess I need to prepare myself for Jonah to knock on my window like last time. I pulled my blinds up and sat there

BROOKS When I left Crystal's, I went to my mom's and told them about the house. Jonah was a little upset at first but when I told him He could move into my old room he got over it. My mom told me she was proud of me for taking this step in life and said she would be happy to help decorate it. I laughed and told her I already had a female to do that. She raised her brow at me and I said fine mom I'll spill it. Remember when I asked you about thinking about someone constantly? She nodded. I said well it wasn't some chick. It was me. I met a young woman who makes my heart race, makes me weak when I am around her and makes me want to be better. I met a young woman who unintentionally captured my floating heart in the palm of her hands. This young woman sees something in me that I want everyone around me to see. I'm sick of being labled as damaged. She is healing me, mom and I love her. My mom asked about her and I said before you freak on me, she is younger than me. I could see the worry

CRYSTALAfter catching my breath, I stared up at Brooks. The look in his eyes was something I'd never seen before. I don't even know how to describe it. His eyes were lighter than normal. I asked him why he didn't f*ck me. He said,"Crystal, I don't want you to think that s*x is the only way you can feel good. I want you to see and feel more intimacy and passion. You deserve that. You don't deserve to just be f*cked."He asked me how it felt to have my eyes covered and be touched that way. I told him I really couldn't find a word other than amazing. He smiled and said,"See that is what I am talking about. I want you to feel the love and passion between us." I said I do feel it Brooks but I want to feel you inside me. Hitting the spot that makes me slip into another world. I really enjoyed what you just did but I want you inside me right now making me forget everything that is bothering me.He stood up, took his clothes off, and then picked me up. He carried me into the kitchen and s

BROOKSWhen we pulled into my mom's driveway, Ray was getting out of his truck and Jonah was standing on the porch. I asked Jonah where mom was and he said she went to the store but should be back any minute. I walked inside with Ray and began taking my bed apart and helped him get my dresser out of the house and loaded up. As we were heading back in to get my bed frame and mattress, My mom pulled into the driveway and got out. She opened the trunk and told Jonah to help her unload the groceries and put them in the back of my explorer. I asked her what she was doing and she told me to hush and said she bought me some food and supplies to start me off. I smiled and told my mom thank you but I didn't need her to do that. She told me to shut it or she would come organize my house and clean it. I laughed and said, fine mom. You win. Thank you for getting me all that. My mom closed the back of my car and walked up to the porch and smiled at Crystal. I said mom, this is Crystal. Crystal thi
