“What? No, I love Kel! What makes you think we’re not friends?”
“I don’t know, it just seems like you guys are always trying to one-up each other,” he said.
“No, it’s not like that at all,” I assured him. But mostly, I was just trying to convince myself. Mattie put his arm around me and we could see two carts in front of us Carter yawning loudly to get our attention and putting his arm around Jace to make fun of Mattie.
“Oh my God, Cody’s going to kiss her,” I whispered excitedly to Mattie and shook his wrist out of habit, because that’s what Kelli and I do when we get excited.
We watched as Cody leaned in, resting his index and middle finger on her jawline to direct her face towards his. Kelli leaned in too until their lips finally met. I don’t think I’ve ever been happier for her, because I know this is exactly what she wanted- exactly what she needed. A boy who would finally make her happy after she’d been so sad for so long.
“I was wondering if you uh, wanted to…be my girlfriend,” I heard Cody ask her. She smiled so bright and her eyes lit up and she nodded and said yes.
“Are you crying?” Mattie asked me.
“I’m sorry,” I laughed. “It’s just like, if you ask one of us out you’re basically asking both of us out and I’m so happy for her and I don’t know, I’m a crier, don’t look at me.”
He laughed, “No, it’s fine haha, I guess guys don’t do that for each other.”
“Apparently not,” I turned away a little embarrassed, giggling nervously.
“I think you’re really beautiful, Brooke,” he said to me. I smiled and leaned in, instigating the kiss. I guess I got too into it because I hadn’t even realized the ride stopped, and the guy who worked there was waiting for us to get out.
“Sorry,” I laughed embarrassed, and hopped out of the cart. I knew what I had to do now- play hard to get. Show him that even though I kissed him didn’t mean I wouldn’t flirt around with the other guys. I liked when guys worked hard for me.
“So, are you guys, like, dating now?” Graham asked Cody and Kelli who were off to the side holding hands.
“Yeah,” Cody half smiled.
“Gay,” Graham said. I hit his arm and yelled at him for his insulting response.
“Now you can’t hook up with Brooke, Cody,” Graham said. Cody stopped walking for a second, caught off guard by the fact his friend actually said that. But he picked up again like it didn’t faze him. “Alright, I don’t care,” Cody laughed. “I have Kel, that’s all I want.”
