Sorry it's taken so long to this chapter up. Been busy with classes and figuring things out for the next semester. Anyway thank you to those have added this to their favorite stories, it means a lot to me. Thank you again and do enjoy.

Kasey sighed heavily to herself as she set down the two plates of pasta. She hated her brother, regretted ever introducing them in fact granite they were bound to meet eventually though she never would have thought things would have ended up the way that they did. She ran her fingers through her hair slowly as she sat down, waiting for Dylan to join her. She realized she shouldn't have acted the way that she had but how was she supposed to help it? She had disowned that twit long ago, even before he had ended up in prison. She hated him for stealing her girl, hated him for being stupid enough to get to prison in the first place and in the process getting Helen sent into the witness protection program. It had taken Kasey years to find her again, years that could have been spent closer, being friends again and maybe even lovers. There was no way to know what could have been though and she needed to get over that.

"Hey." a soft almost whisper of a voice called behind her and the small tug at the corner of her lips couldn't seem to be helped. The way they had fallen so easily back into the smallest things affecting them again had surprised them both but Kasey had to stop the smile and put it away for now, force it not to be seen.

"Hey." She whispered back, turning sideways in her chair so to look up at Dylan who smiled a little in turn before she sat in Kasey's lap and slowly wrapped her arms around the taller girl's neck hugging her a little tightly.

"I'm so sorry." She whispered hugging a little tighter. Kasey in turn wrapped her arms around Dylan's waist.

"It's okay; I know you didn't mean to bring him up." Laying her head in the crook of Dylan's neck she took a deep breath. "I just can't seem to help the fact that it still hurts ya know." She forced herself to laugh a little, the pain easily heard in her voice.

"I know." Dylan ran her fingers through her hair and kissed her forehead. "If I could I'd go back and change it all. I never meant to hurt you." She pulled Kasey's head up so she could look in her eyes. "You know that right?" Kasey nodded a little before closing her eyes.

"Do you remember the first day we met?" She asked in a low whisper, begging her voice not to crack as a small smile tugged at the corner of her lips.

"Of course, you were sitting in the back of study hall, nose buried in a book. You only glanced up from it for a few seconds when I came strolling in with only 10 minutes left." She smiled a little.

"The teacher told you to go wait in the hallway but that didn't work, you just propped your feet up on the desk next to you and started smoking." She shook her head. "I knew you were bad news but there was something about you that caught my attention right away."

"I couldn't believe you read the whole class every day, I mean the class was an hour and a half and it seemed like you had a different book every time I looked at you."

"I like to read, always have, but you tended to be a distraction and my one to two books a day turned into one book every other week. Then after you talked to me the first time and we started hanging out I kinda just stopped reading for a while. It's hard to read when you were all I could ever seem to think of." She mumbled the last part, looking down at her plate.

"I'm sorry" Dylan ran her fingers through Kasey's hair. " I didn't mean to bring up your brother and I didn't mean to hurt you as bad as I did back then. I realize now that you were the one I should have picked but there was something about his bad boy act that just pulled me in. When I went into the WPP I tried to find you before I was shipped off but your mother said you had left for school and she didn't know where or what school." She lifted Kasey's chin so she could look into her eyes, they were red like she might cry but was trying so hard not to. "Maybe we could start over?" She whispered hopefully. Kasey chewed on her lip mulling it over before she nodded a little.

"Yeah I guess we can, I just hate that he never stopped he always took everything I cared for and I thought for once I wouldn't have to worry about that but I was wrong. What ever happened to my brother anyway?"

"Last I heard he's still in prison but I wouldn't know I haven't kept track of him."

"Okay good to hear. Let's finish out meal and maybe go on a walk through the park so we can catch up?" She leaned in a little not really noticing as she got lost in Dylan's eyes. She nodded a little, leaning in slowly too. Before they knew it their lips were connected and their eyes fluttered closed as their lips softly and slowly danced together.

Again sorry for the delay, I'll try and update sooner but no promises. Hopped you liked it reviews/follows/favorites are greatly appreciated :)
