Love's Redemption (Chris and Maddie)

"Don't do that." Ellie pushed my head back onto Brandon's shoulder. "Maddie, just lean on Bran like that. I love seeing you two all lovey-dovey."

I looked at her helplessly.

"Bran, Maddie." Ellie looked at us with her clear eyes. "I was going to wait a few days to say something, but since we're on the topic, I might as well say it now." "Don't overthink it, and don't say anything silly." I already had a feeling about what she was going to say.

However, Brandon said, "Let her speak."

Ellie smiled at him. "You really are my brother. You know me best."

After that, she looked at me. "Maddie, listen to me first."

She giggled, then cleared her throat with a couple of coughs before gripping both mine and Brandon's hands tightly. "Here I go."

Both Brandon and I stayed silent, but our breathing became noticeably tense.
