casts quite a big shadow," Maureen replied.
"Don't worry. I'm sure you'll find your way out of it," Brian said.
"I'm not so sure about that. But I'm also not so sure that's a bad thing. I like where I am. I'm not looking to outdo my dad. I'm just looking to find happiness," Maureen explained.
"And what's happiness to you?" Brian wondered.
"Falling in love. Working for the foundation to help those less fortunate, starting a family. You know, the simple things," Maureen said.
"I've found that the simple things are quite often the most enjoyable," Brian replied.
"Let's hope so," Maureen said. "So, how about you? What are your big plans for the future?"
"Well, I was planning on being a backup quarterback my whole life," Brian joked.
"Lofty expectations, don't you think?" Maureen said, playfully.
"You're right. Your dad could demote me to the practice squad at any time," Brian replied.
"But seriously, how do you see your future playing out?" Maureen wondered.
"Obviously I'd love to get into the pros. But if that doesn't work out, I'd be happy with a career in broadcasting," Brian revealed.
"Don't you have to have a colorful personality to do color commentary?" Maureen teased.
"Ouch, that's a low blow," Brian said, playfully.
"You're right. They have rules against going in low on a quarterback," Maureen remarked.
"Yeah, they really coddle us quarterbacks," Brian said, sarcastically.
"I might just have to toughen you up then," Maureen replied.
"I thought women like men that are in touch with their sensitive side," Brian suggested.
"Why would we want that when we could be with an emotional distant jerk?" Maureen joked.
"No wonder I've been having such trouble with women," Brian said, playfully.
"Well, I might just be going out on a limb here, but I think your problems with women might finally be over," Maureen replied, with a smile.
"Don't make promises you can't keep," Brian insisted.
"Trust me, after what I've been through, the last thing I want is problems," Maureen explained.
"Good. Because you won't find any with me," Brian said.
Maureen then gazed into Brian's eyes. "I like the sound of that."

"You know it's strange. I feel this weird connection to you already," Maureen explained.
"Well, we have had chemistry for an entire semester," Brian pointed out.
"You're right. Who knew class could make for such good foreplay?" Maureen asked.
"But still, I know what you mean. I'm normally so shy. So protective of my feelings and what could happen to them in the wrong hands. But with you--"
"Everything is different," Maureen remarked, staring into Brian's deep eyes. "I feel like a whole new woman around you. Confident. Adventurous. And yet completely assured that everything will work out."
"Plus, you're just dead sexy," Brian said.
Maureen then gazed into Brian's eyes and he leaned in and gave Maureen a deep kiss. Brian tasted so sweet. Like a delicious dessert. With just one kiss, Brian made Maureen feel a wild rush of emotions reverberate throughout her body. It was sensational. Maureen didn't want the kissing to stop, but they had to come up for air.
"Wow, this date suddenly got a lot more interesting," Brian replied.
"Are you kidding? My whole life just got a lot more interesting," Maureen said.

Five Months Later
Tyler Webster never thought Los Angeles would lose its luster. After all, he was dating a famous Hollywood actress. But surprisingly enough it turned out that being with Natasha Simmons had its shortcomings as well. At first Tyler had been too star struck to notice the problems in their relationship. Over time though, the flaws became glaring. Natasha had expensive tastes. The kind that could make a man bankrupt. She also had raging insecurities for someone that had been named one of the sexiest women in the world.
The worst part for Tyler though was how fake things were in Hollywood.
