Dust In The Wind. [closed]

"Yeah, I am," Annie said, smiling up at Taven. She really was having a good time, even if she still felt a bit awkward about things.

---

Brandon chuckled and shook his head. He drove to the pizza parlor and parked the car, climbing out and leading her inside.

Taven nodded, "Alright i was just making sure i wasn't forcing into doing something you didn't want to." He said as he drove. Once he got to the pizza place he walked in and sat down. He looked at his friends, "Alright what are we ordering?" He asked them.

---

Sutton walked inside with him and sat down with him. She looked at the waitress when she came and ordered a drink. She smiled as the girl walked away.

@ memento mori.

Annie smiled, looking over at Sutton and Brandon and then at everyone else. She kind of just stayed in the background. She didn't want to be in any sort of attention.

---

"How about plain cheese?" Brandon suggested. "I don't know about you guys, but I'm craving regular cheese."

Taven looked at his friends as they agreed, "Cheese it is then." He said, smiling. He handed the girl the menu, then relaxed as they all sat there talking. When the pizza came he began to eat. Taven watched as the waitress set the check down then paid for everyones food.

Once they were done he walked out with Annie and drove her home. He looked at her, "So i was just curious. What kind of stuff do you like doing?" He asked as he turned off his jeep.

---

Sutton smiled as she agreed. She smiled as she walked out with Brandon. "Do you want to go to my house or yours?" She asked with a small smile.

@ memento mori.

Annie bit her lip gently. "I like reading books," she said with a shrug. "I guess I don't really go out and do too much, all this is really new to me. My friends and I have always been so focused on school that we never have any fun."

---

Brandon shrugged his shoulders. "Either one is fine with me," he said, grinning as he pecked her lips. "It's wherever you want to go."

Taven looked at her, "Well why don't you pick something you would like to go do or see and we can go do that one night." He said. "I mean i don't want you to always have to hang out with my friends." He said. He knew they weren't the best people. He looked forward then looked at her, "Do you like Broadway shows?" He asked.

---

Sutton nodded, "Alright we can go to mine then." She said. She drove to her house then got out and walked inside with him. She set her stuff down then looked at him. It seemed that her parents were out for the night. "Want to watch a movie?" She asked.

@ memento mori.

Annie raised an eyebrow. "I've never been to one," she said. "But I do love plays, so I'm sure I would enjoy one."

---

Brandon smiled and nodded his head. He pulled his shoes off and sat down on her bed, looking up at her. "Sounds good," he said.

Taven nodded, "okay well my parents got two tickets to this show and can't go. So would you like to go with me next weekend?" He asked.

----

Sutton smiled as she kissed him. She sat on his lap and wrapped her arms around him. "I love you." She said as she kissed him.

@ memento mori.

Annie smiled softly at him and nodded her head. "Yeah, sure," she murmured.

---

Brandon smiled up at her. "I love you too," he said, kissing her back.

Taven smiled, "Great i'm sure you will like it." He said. He watched as she opened her door, "Good night Annie." He said.

---

Sutton smiled as seh relaxed against him and kissed him, running her fingers through his hair.

@ memento mori.

Annie looked up at him and smiled softly. "Goodnight, Taven," she murmured. She walked inside and shut the door quietly, locking the door. She frowned when she heard a woman giggling, making her way to the living room where she saw her father sitting on the couch with some woman in the middle of a makeout session. She frowned deeply, feeling her heart just shatter into a million pieces. Without a word, she darted upstairs and slammed her door shut, leaning against it and trying to hold back the tears.

---

Brandon slid his arms around her waist, pulling her body against his as close as he could.

Taven got back to his house and walked inside. He knew his parents were already asleep so he quietly went to his room and got ready for bed. He sighed as he laid down and pulled the blankets over himself. HE looked at his phone and texted Annie. I had fun tonight. Thanks for coming. Goodnight.

---

Sutton smiled as she kissed down his neck and moved her hips against his.

@ memento mori.

Annie read the message on her phone and sighed softly. She didn't answer, just put her phone down and curled up on her bed and went to sleep.

---

Brandon grinned, biting his lip hard. "You really want to go there tonight?" he asked.

Tanner woke up the next monday, walking into the school. He sighed as he put his things in the locker. Tanner grabbed his books for his first class. He sat down, looking out the window.

---

Sutton walked into the school the next monday. She held Brandon's hair as they walked down the hallway.

@ memento mori.

Annie walked into class, sitting down in her seat and staring blankly into space.

---

Brandon smiled as he walked with her, squeezing her hand. He'd noticed she'd been sick lately, and he felt bad that she insisted on going to school.

Tanner looked over at Annie as she sat next to him. "You alright?" He asked her quietly. She seemed to be very distracted.

---

Sutton looked at him, "What's wrong?" She asked him. She had been a little under the weather, but she didn't want to not go to school.

@ magnus bane.

Annie looked over at Taven and bit her lip gently. She forced a small smile and nodded her head. "Yeah," she murmured. "I'm fine." She sat back in her seat slightly and looked him over. "How are you?"

---

"I'm just worried about you, baby," Brandon said, turning to face her, looking into her eyes. "You've been sick lately. I think you should go to the doctor."

Taven looked at her and smiled, "I'm good." He said. He raised an eyebrow at her, "You sure you are okay?" He asked, "You just seem a little off." He said. He was worried about her and he usually didn't feel like that about girls.

---

Sutton sighed, "I feel fine now, but if you want me to i will." She said.

@ magnus bane.

Annie looked at him and shook her head. "Actually, I'm not," she mumbled. "But can we talk about it later?"

---

He could tell she was a bit annoyed that he wanted her to go to the doctor, but it was only out of concern. "Please, for me?"
