I slip back into my night clothes and head towards the living room. I hear some snickering from behind, I turn around to see Danny and Wallow following me "hey! I thought you guys were supposed to be out of the hideout" "we are" said Danny "so leave then, please" I asked politely "Fine, Fine, we'll leave" I watched them walk out the door. I carried on to the living room where I noticed Beth hadn't arrived yet. I sat down on the sofa, my heart pounding. This could go two ways, and I fear the worst.
15 minutes pass
I'm getting worried now, is she even coming, did she ditch me? I'm getting ahead of myself now. Calm Chris Calm. Beth walks in and sits down next to me. "so, what should we watch" I ask "Don't you want to hear what I was going to tell you?" asks Beth "of course I do" I reply. She leans in close and whispers the three words that I have been dying to hear. She moves back and cuddles up to me. My brain and heart are racing, this was so sudden. We choose to watch a movie about when snorlbo's attack neo-mars. Around halfway through the movie I could tell she was asleep, so I sat there Beth cuddled up to me. I eventually fell asleep too. I woke up after Beth, She looked up at me and asked what time it was it looked about 10 minutes before sunrise. Damn. The guys would have been back ages ago. I heard footsteps from the hallway. I told Beth to hurry and get out of the room before they got here. She agreed and we hurried out of the room to our bedrooms. I saw Danny walk into the kitchen and as I was entering my room I heard Danny say "Hey where did you two go". Damnit, Danny and Wallow must have seen us on the sofa.
I notice that On my bed is a note from Wallow saying to ignore Danny, he's just happy for you two. Although Wallow looked tough on the outside he was very soft on the inside much like impossibear. It's not like we are dating it was just to get it off our chests, right? STOP, believe in yourself Chris, grrrrr. Does she want me to ask her out now? It feels so good but yet so bad. I'm in my room with my head in my hands, if I'd have known I would asked her out ages ago. But wouldn't it be awkward? She's been my best friend for over 10 years. It's now or never Chris. Okay, breathe, breathe. I get up of my bed and go to the kitchen and I find Danny and Wallow in there, but not Beth. Must be in her room. but as I walk away from the kitchen door Danny shouts "hey get Beth Catbugs making pancakes and peanut butter squares, and I wont eat them all!" I just leave without a word. Now is the time. I walk towards Beth's room but I stop halfway to question myself again. Nope I'm doing it nothing can stop me now.
I look around double checking I'm not being followed By Danny and Wallow. Alone. Good.
I knock on Beth's door. "one second" says Beth. I'm so nervous. She opens the door. "So... uh Beth... I... I was wondering if... if maybe you wanted to... like you know... um... oh god, maybe go out with me?" She just stands there. I hang my head "I'm sorry it was stupid, our friendship will be awkward now" I turn to walk away but I am stopped by Beth "it wont be awkward" "why not?" "because its a yes" said Beth "really?" I'm jumping for joy by this point "oh and also Catbugs making pancakes and peanut butter squares" I tell her "but Chris" "Yes" I reply "can we keep this a secret from the guys?"she asks "of course, anything for you". We walk to the kitchen and sit down. We hold hands under the table "I see that" says Danny as he brings the food over, me and Beth looked at each other. We let go. "come on you two, it's not like we don't know" says Danny "Danny, come on man leave them alone" says Wallow "fine, fine". We eat breakfast and return to our rooms. Whilst I lie on my bed I hear a knock"come in" I say. it's Danny. "is it real dude?" "is what real" I reply "you and Beth" says Danny "no" I insist "oh come on, I saw you holding hands, you didn't even have your gloves on" "no Danny it is not real, we are not going out" "what about what happened on the sofa last night?" says Danny "she fell asleep next to me and leant over" I reply "okay Chris, I'm sorry ". he could tell I was lying. but I kept my promise.
