Match Made in Heaven

Chapter 8: Brandon's Love

Brandon's heart raced as he watched the group of teenagers approach, their laughter echoing through the trees. He knew Brianna was exposed and needed to find a solution fast.

Brandon gently ushered Brianna off the main trail without hesitation, guiding her to a secluded spot where they would be shielded from view. He wrapped his arms around her in a hug, with his back toward the trail, blocking her from the teenagers' line of sight.

As the group passed by, Brianna felt a mix of relief and anxiety. She knew that they had avoided a potentially embarrassing situation, but she was also acutely aware of the dampness on her pants and the trail of urine on the dry rocks of the trail.

Once the teenagers were out of sight, Brandon turned to Brianna, his expression filled with concern. "Are you okay?" he asked, his voice gentle.

Brianna nodded, a faint blush staining her cheeks. "Y-yeah, I think so," she murmured, still feeling the lingering embarrassment of her "accident." "I'm sorry. I should have held on a little longer until the coast was clear."

"Don't apologize, you are amazing. I can't believe you would do something like that in the middle of the day and in a place where people could end up seeing besides myself." He said with a smile as he started to blush, realizing how much she cared for him. "Let's find a spot where you can change," Brandon suggested, scanning their surroundings for a more secluded area. He spotted a cluster of large rocks a short distance away and took Brianna's hand, leading her there.

He helped her over to the spot where she could change out of her wet clothes privately, using a spare blanket in his backpack to make a shelter like someone would use while camping to deter any suspicion of what could be happening.

Brianna nodded gratefully, feeling a rush of gratitude for Brandon's unwavering understanding and support. With a sigh of relief, she went into the makeshift shelter. She began to undo the buttons of her wet pants, grateful for the opportunity to change out of her damp clothes.

As Brianna changed, she couldn't help but think about their early dates and how kind and considerate Brandon had always been towards her. She remembered the time he had walked her home in the rain, holding an umbrella over her head while he got soaked, or the time he had surprised her with her favorite flowers just because. She realized that Brandon truly cared for her and was willing to go out of his way to make her happy.

Once she had changed into dry clothes, Brianna emerged from the shelter feeling refreshed and rejuvenated, she couldn't help but feel overwhelmed with gratitude towards Brandon. His thoughtful gesture of creating a makeshift shelter to ensure her privacy and comfort during such an exposing moment touched her deeply.

"Thank you, Brandon," Brianna said, her voice filled with genuine appreciation. "I really appreciate you putting together the shelter. It means a lot to me."

Brandon smiled warmly, his eyes reflecting the sincerity of his feelings. "It was no big deal. I'll always take care of you, no matter what," he assured her, his voice gentle and reassuring.

Brianna felt a surge of warmth in her chest at his words; Brandon smiled back at her, quickly tearing down the shelter he had made for her so they could get back to their hike. 

Brandon and Brianna continued their hike toward the top of the trail. The tension from the encounter with the teenagers began to fade, replaced by a sense of closeness and intimacy between them. Brianna couldn't shake the feeling of gratitude for Brandon's quick thinking and unwavering support. With each step, she felt a renewed sense of affection for him.

As they returned to the trail, Brianna couldn't help but glance at the damp path where she had accidentally wet herself earlier. A faint blush crept onto her cheeks as she remembered the embarrassing moment, but she quickly brushed it off, reminding herself that it was on purpose.
