CHAPTER 3: So Yeah
Inside Noah's Apartment, Night:
Cody lies on the bed, sleeping comfortably. Then surprisingly Noah storms in the room, which awoken yet startled Cody.
"Guess who's druuunk?" Noah playfully and drunkenly asked. Cody sits up and yawns.
"I guess Noah." Cody answered, rubbing his eyes. Noah hangs his coat and walks towards the bed.
"You guess right." Noah teased, throwing his car keys to Cody's head. Then Noah hardly FLOPS! onto the bed, landing next to him. Cody rub his head and looks up at the ceiling.
"So, that girl from my dream..." Cody started, dreamily pondering. Noah sighed and stirs around to face the wall, annoyed.
"Girl. Okay..." Noah muttered, not interested to hear about it.
"I saw her at the library..." Cody said, with a smile. Noah stirs around the bed, trying to go to sleep.
"Library, that's great. Can I pretend we're talking about a guy?" Noah asked, messing with him. Cody ignores him and continues talking about his dream girl.
"And then I'm at this party and, hey, there she is." Cody said, lost in his thoughts.
"Hey, there he is." Noah teased, drifting to sleep. Cody stirs and rubs his head with his hand.
"I think she's..." Cody started, dreamily.
"I think he's..." Noah tiredly mocked, Cody continues.
"I thinks he's- I mean, I think she's the girl of my dreams." Cody muttered, happily. Noah slowly opens his eyes and turns back to look at him.
"Mmm. Then you should break up with your fake high-school girlfriend." Noah tiredly suggested, closing his eyes. Cody wasn't paying attention.
"I've never been so sure about something." Cody said with a sigh, lost at his thoughts. Noah quietly groans and repeats.
"Then you should break up with your fake high-school girlfriend." Noah mumbles, drifting off to sleep. Cody was out of his thoughts and turns to Noah with a questioning look.
"Huh? You said something?" Cody asked, noticing.
"I said that you should break up with your fake high-school girlfriend." Noah mumbled, not speaking clearly, then he passed out. Cody furrowed his eyebrows, not understanding what he mumbled.
"You suck who's-what? I'm not getting it, friend." Cody said, disturbed for what he misheard. Then RING! RING! the phone rings, Cody quickly answers. In the other line with Courtney on her cell phone.
"You're thinking of juggling with two chicks?" Courtney exclaimed. Cody cocks an eyebrow and shakes his head.
"Not even." Cody answered, frustrated for being busted again. Courtney shakes her head in disgust.
"Well, you should break up with your fake high-school girlfriend." Courtney suggested, annoyed.
"Wait, who told you?" Cody asked, out of curiosity. Courtney sighed in frustration.
"Noah, duh!" Courtney answered. Cody turns to Noah, watching him snoring.
"He's not even conscious." Cody added, then looks away from Noah. Courtney rolled her eyes and waves it off.
"Whatever. You of all people should know how sucky it is to get cheated on." Courtney pointed out, warning her little brother.
"Don't you have a job to do?" Cody asked, changing the subject. She scoffed and cracked a smile.
"You're right. I should send out a mass text about this. Bye." Courtney said, then she hangs up.
Cody hangs up and turns back to Noah. He was out cold but his cell phone was on his hand, seeming that he was texting while sleeping.
"Noah, how the hell do you do that." Cody asked, amazed and confused, lying back on the bed. Then they were both out cold for the night.
Morning light fills the apartment...
"Noah!" Cody yelled, which woke and startled Noah. He sits bolt upright and rub his eyes. Cody sits at Noah's computer, he turns over his shoulder to look at Noah.
"Hey. Amazon dot com. What's the website for that?" Cody asked, ready to type. Noah rolled his eyes and answers his disturbing question.
"...Amazon dot com." Noah said, making it sound obvious. Cody nodded and turns back to the computer.
"I have to order something really cool. This is your credit card info on here?" Cody asked, while typing. Noah cracks his neck and nodded.
"Yeah." Noah answered, lazily. 'You've got mail.' Computer Electronic voice said. Cody was stunned and surprised.
"Dude, this thing claims I have mail." Cody happily exclaimed. Noah shakes his head in disbelief, holding the urge to insult him.
"It's amazing what we can do with computers these days." Noah said, sarcastically. Cody turns to him with a excited smile.
"Dude, I'm reading it." Cody said, turning back to the computer. Noah rolled his eyes and gets up from the bed.
"I'm so happy for you." Noah muttered, sarcastically as he stretches.
Cody started to read the message.
"Dear Mr. Pilgrim, it has come to my attention that we will be fighting soon. My name is Tyler Patel, and blah, blah, blah...Fair warning...Mano y mano...Kill you...Fight to the death...Seven evil X-men...blah blah...hmm...This is...This is...THIS IS..." Cody raise his voice as he realize something. Noah was getting annoyed from his repeating.
"This is what!" Noah asked, gesturing him to continue.
"THIS IS SPARTAN! Heh, we should watch 300 tomorrow...Anyway, delete." Cody muttered with a bored expression, CLICK! deleting the message. Cody walks to the front door and sits on the floor. Moments pass as Noah yawns and looks down at Cody, disturbed watching him sit there.
"Cody...Are you waiting for the package you just ordered?" Noah asked, confused. Cody looks over his shoulder to look at him and shrugged his shoulders.
"Maybe." Cody answered, turning back to the door. Noah sighed and runs a hand through his messy hair.
"It's the weekend. It won't ship until Monday at the earliest." Noah pointed out, with a bored expression. DINGY DONG! Cody jumps up to his feet and gives Noah a smirk.
"You were saying?" Cody teased, then opens the door, revealing to be...Sierra!
"Attack hug!" Sierra excitedly exclaimed, jumping on Cody, giving a smothering hug. Cody was off guard and awkwardly returns the embrace, plastering the best fake smile on his miserable expression.
"Attack hug...That's cute...so cute," Cody uncomfortably said, breaking the hug. Sierra giggles and rub Cody's shoulders with her hands.
"You don't remember? You're supposed to meet me at the bus stop a half-hour ago?" Sierra asked, reminding him. Cody winced, seeming that he forgotten to meet up with her.
"How could I possibly forget?" Cody lied, with a nervous grin. Sierra giggles and gives Cody another hug. Noah slap his palm to his forehead and collapsed to the bed, frustrated.
I Forget...
Inside the Sonic Boom (Snooty Record Store), Day:
The young couple are having their same routine date, which immediately became Cody's boredom. Cody and Sierra flips through the record bins, out of sync. Cody appears to be somewhere else in his thoughts while Sierra was talking.
"Yearbook club is sooo boring. I cannot believe the music they put on while we work." Sierra gabbed, talking about her day in school. Cody looks around the place as he wasn't paying any attention.
"That sucky." Cody murmured, more interested in his own thoughts.
Then...
Inside the Goodwill:
Sierra buys the hip and trendy jacket. Cody sits on the couch next to the 'DO NOT SIT' sign, still distracted by his own mind.
"Hannah broke up with Alan and now she's all into Derek..." Sierra gossiped, putting on the jacket.
After that...
Cody and Sierra walk out of the pizza joint, chowing down on a slice but Cody doesn't. He's still in his thoughts elsewhere.
"...but then Tamara claims she has dibs on Derek." Sierra continues while eating her pizza. Cody had a bored and careless expression plastered onto his face .
"I have no idea who any of those people are." Cody muttered frantically under his breath but not loud enough for Sierra to hear.
A Little Later...
Inside the Arcade, Same Day:
Cody and Sierra play Alien Alien Revolution, side by side, now decidedly out of sync. Cody's videogame counterpart gets his ass kicked by aliens, he stumbles and miss balancing his moves. He plays halfheartedly, his timing off. Sierra was still having fun hanging around with him. She tries a flip but she bumps to Cody, messing it up.
"Oh, I'm sorry, that was all me." Cody muttered, making an excuse. Then the Solo Round comes up the screen. The mirror image of Cody's videogame avatar appears on screen. It reveals a dark gray alien with green glowing eyes, squaring up against Cody's avatar.
"Uh, oh. Alien Cody. Combo mode." Sierra teased with a grin. Cody rolled his eyes and waves it off, not in the mood to defeat the alien that looks like the same version of himself.
"I can never get past that guy." Cody muttered, lazily. Alien Cody kicked his character's head way off (Fatality!...Oh wait this isn't the mortal kombat game).
"Don't beat yourself about it." Sierra told him with a giggle.
Cody sighed and shrugged his shoulders. The Continue countdown comes up the tapped, pleading for more coins, counting down to 10...9...8 (I'm too lazy to count, so ima stop there).
"Do you want to keep going?" Sierra asked, grinning at him. Cody takes a long look at her, still pondering about his dream girl. He backs away from her and Alien Alien Revolution, leaving Sierra who has a puzzled expression on her face.
"Um...I think...I think I should go rehearse..." Cody said, hesitantly. Sierra nodded, understanding.
"Can I go with you?" Sierra asked, eager. Cody takes a deep breath, unsure what to say. This is never easy for him.
Never Easy...
Inside Trent's House, Living Room, Day:
Cody tunes his bass guitar, alone by the window, in his pensive thoughts. He stares out the window, still wondering if he ever gonna encounter his goddess. Izzy and Ezekiel are hanging out around the room. Trent walks up to Cody and grabs the microphone.
"Game on, everybody. I got us a show." Trent said, getting everyone's attention.
Suddenly Sierra,out of nowhere, BURST! in front of him, which made Trent jump and gasped in surprise. Cody winces as she squeals.
"OH, MY GOSH WHEN!" Sierra asked, super excited as she clenches her fists. Trent was catching his breath before answering, looking at her like she's crazy...which she is.
"Uh. Wednesday. The Rockit. And even better it's the T.I.B.B." Trent said, which made Ezekiel say "Whoa." with a amazed look. Sierra, wearing a homemade Sheep Shearers shirt (...um made by her. I think), squeals in excitement. She leans closer to Trent, staring deep into his eyes.
"The Toronto International Battle of the Bands?" Sierra asked extremely eager. Trent nodded with a very uncomfortable expression on his face, backing away from her.
"That's right. This guy at work was like, 'Trent, you know anybody in a band?' And I was like, 'I'm in a band.' And he was like, 'You're in a band?' And I was like, 'Yeah, I'm totally in a band.' The End." Trent told them with a triumph smirk. Izzy furrowed her eyebrows and then burst into laughter.
"Wow, what a great story, Trent." Izzy commented, idiotically. Trent scowled at her, annoyed.
"Is there a prize or something?" Sierra asked, with a big grin. Trent smirk at her and nods in response.
"Only a record deal with C-Man Graves." Trent said which made Sierra squeal and widening her eyes in shocked. Cody gave Trent a confused expression.
"Who's that?" Cody asked, about C-Man. Trent and Sierra stares at him in disbelief.
"You don't know?" Sierra asked, stunned. Cody shakes his head in response.
"Indie producer of the millennium." Trent informed him. Cody thought about it for a second, then nodded.
"Oh." Cody oh with a chuckle, showing them that he knows (But he really didn't know who C-Man is). Trent wraps an arm around Sierra and points at the shirt she's wearing.
"If we win, it won't just be Sierra wearing Sheep Shearer shirts. It'll be the cool kids too." Trent said, patting Sierra's shoulder. She collapsed on her knees in front of Cody, which made him jump.
"I promise I will do everything I can to get out of psychotherapy and come." Sierra said with a insanity grin. Cody gulps, terrified for watching his crazy girlfriend being obsessed for the band.
"I think I just piss myself." Cody muttered, getting up from the couch. Sierra hops around the room, insanely excited.
"Oh, my gosh,who are you battling?" Sierra asked, with a curious expression.
"Fat and the Boys." Trent answered, sitting on the couch.
"Aw, that one band with Owen? And those Boys?" Ezekiel questioned. Izzy rolled her eyes and throw a paper airplane to his head.
"Yeah, that's the one." Izzy said, sarcastically with a snicker.
"I hate them." Ezekiel added with a glare. Sierra nodded in agreement, having the same glare on her face.
"Oh, my gosh, I hate them too." Sierra hissed.
Cody walks to the bathroom in dazed expression. After he enters the bathroom, he closes the door behind him. Cody pees in a state of dreamy reverie. The [Pee Bar] above his head slowly reduces. He stares at himself in the mirror for a second. Then he flushes the toilet, washes his hands and walks out of the room.
Then He Enters...
Inside a Dream High School, Time Unknown:
Cody enters a long empty High school hallway with a confused look on his. His footsteps echo as he moves towards a classroom door with a STAR on it...Gwen bursts through the door, rollerblading past Cody and down the hall, package from amazon clutched in her hand.
"Hey!" Cody called out, trying to get her attention. He runs after her, around a corner, down a row of lockers leading to...the outside of Noah's Apartment? Cody hesitated and gave a WTF look, then he realize something...
She's Here...
Inside Noah's Apartment, Morning:
Cody leaps out of the bed. "Hey!" Cody exclaimed to himself, running towards the front door, throwing it open and startling Gwen Flowers just as she presses the door bell DING DONG! Just in time. Gwen stares at him confusingly.
"Um, Cody Pilgrim?" Gwen asked, awkwardly. With nary beat, Cody skips into love-fool mode.
"Hi, I was thinking about asking you out, but then I realized how stupid that would be. So, uh, do you want to go out sometimes?" Cody asked, grinning nervously. Gwen blinks a few times before answering the disturbing question.
"Um, no. That's okay. You can just sign for this, all right?" Gwen said, showing the package and clipboard but he ignores it.
"I just woke up and you were in my dream. I dreamed that you were delivering me this package. Is that weird?" Cody asked, with a big grin. Gwen shakes her head in response.
"It's not weird at all." Gwen muttered, sarcastically. Cody's smile faded away into an beat look.
"It's not?" Cody asked, nervously.
"No, it's just that you have this really convenient subspace highway running through your head that I like to use. It's like three miles in 15 seconds." Gwen informed. Cody leans his head on the side of the doorway and gave her a glazed smile.
"Right, right." Cody murmured, agreeing. Gwen eyed around her surroundings then looks back at kid in front of her.
"I forgot you guys don't have that in Canada." Gwen added with a boredom tone. Cody chuckles for that remark.
"Ha! So, I guess you're like more American than Canadian." Cody teased, which didn't amuse Gwen.
"Why, am I coming off as loud and obnoxious or something?" Gwen asked, getting annoyed. Cody quickly shook his head in response, hoping that he didn't offend her.
"No, not at all. You don't remember me, do you? We met at the party the other day, talking about a videogame's origin?" Cody asked, reminding her. Gwen stares a himt suspiciously, then recognizes him.
"Were you the geeky, Pac-Man guy?" Gwen asked, making sure. Cody quickly shook his head and chuckles nervously.
"No. Not even. That was some total asshole who's in love with you. I was the other guy." Cody muttered, awkwardly as he stands in awe of her. Gwen sighed, getting tired for wasting her time. She gives him the pen.
"You know, you need to sign for this, whatever this is." Gwen added, examining the package she's holding.
"But if I sign for it, you'll leave." Cody pleaded, showing a sad pout. Gwen rolled her eyes and stares at him like he's stupid.
"No shit. That's how it works." Gwen told him, carelessly. Cody fidgets his fingers and sighed, depressingly.
"Okay, well, maybe do you want to hang out or something? Get to know each other? You're the new kid on the block, right? I've lived here forever...I mean...there are reasons for you to hang out with me." Cody murmured, slyly and embarrassed. Gwen sighed in frustration.
"You're all over the place." Gwen said, pointed out. Cody shrugged his shoulders, looking at the snowy ground, bashfully.
"You're like...my dream girl." Cody admits, dreamily. Gwen was getting uncomfortably disturbed.
"Yeah, I should find a new route." Gwen said to herself, seeming that she keeps meeting the weirdest people.
"Either that or you need to start hanging out with me." Cody added, sadly. Gwen stares at him confusingly. There was a few seconds of silent.
"...You want me to hang out with you?" Gwen asked, with a uninterested look. Cody slowly nodded in response.
"...Um, yeah...if that's cool." Cody mutters quietly, more nervous. Gwen sighed in defeat.
"If I say yes, will you sign for your damn package?" Gwen asked, irritated. Cody snatched the clipboard and package, quickly signed his name on the dotted line and tosses the package behind him straight to the trashcan without even looking.
"So, yeah. Eight o' clock?" Cody asked, grinning like an idiot.
So Yeah...
Somewhere The Top Of Some Stairs, Night:
Gwen waits at the top of some stairs in the park with a bored and impatient expression. The Toronto skyline gleams in the night. She shoves her gloved-hands inside her pockets as it gets colder. Cody walks up the stairs behind Gwen, staring behind her confusingly.
"Why are you just standing there?" Cody asked, curiosity. Gwen turns to him and furrowed her eyebrows, questioningly.
"Dude, I'm totally waiting on you." Gwen answers, making it obvious.
"Oh, sorry. I just assumed you were too cool to be here on time." Cody assumed, pretending her remarks doesn't intimidate him. Gwen cocks an eyebrow at him.
"Oh, you assumed wrong. You do realized being fashionably late is so five minutes ago?" Gwen mentions, with a delicately smile. They both walk the snowy streets of Toronto. Cody thinks of way to start a conversation.
"It's getting nice out here. I didn't really need this parka." Cody said, breaking the silence. Gwen stares oddly at an Atari 2600 Robot Tank Patch on his Parka.
"Yeah, um, what's up with the patch?" Gwen asked, getting disturbed by it. Cody looks down at his Parka for a second, then turns back to Gwen.
"The Atari 2600? Well, obviously one of us is a kick ass fighter." Cody said with a triumph grin. Gwen gave him an unimpressed look.
"And one of us is a total nerd. Where are we going again?" Gwen asked, changing the subject. Cody ponders for a second.
"Um...Somewhere awesome." Cody answered with a smirk. They both kept on walking in the snowy ground.
Somewhere Awesome...
Inside the Arcade, Same Night:
Cody plays Alien Alien Revolution by himself while Gwen watches, bored as hell. Cody turns to her while playing the game.
"You sure you don't want to play?" Cody asked, gesturing her to come and play with him. Gwen crossed her arms and shakes her head in response.
"I'm not into simulated violence." Gwen muttered, obviously not interested. Cody tries to flip, then he lands awkwardly, trying to impressed Gwen. She rolled her eyes with a sigh of boredom. The game is over, Cody points at his score from the screen.
"I have top score on this game." Cody said, with a smile. Gwen applause for him, not enthusiastic about it.
"Wow." Gwen muttered, sarcastically. She wanders away, leaving Cody. He notice her walking away and starts following her. The top scores from the screen begin to scroll. C.O.D (Cody's score) takes up 2nd through 10th, but there are new initials in the #1 slot: C.H.R. Gwen storms out of the Arcade and turns to Cody.
"So this your idea of hanging out?" Gwen asked, irritated. Cody got a little paled, knowing that she's not having a good time.
"What? Not even. We can do anything. You know, we could flip through some clothes in Goodwill. Or flick through some records in Sonic Boom. Or pick up some slices at Pizza Pizza. Toronto's got it all. It's not just walk through the snow." Cody quickly said, getting nervous.
She Rather Walk Than Go To Those Places...
Around the Park, Same Night:
Cody and Gwen walk through the snow in an empty park. Feeling the breezing wind crawling to their skins.
"So, what brought you back to Toronto?" Cody asked, breaking the silence. Gwen shrugged her shoulders and sighed.
"I was in New York. Just needed to escape, I guess. Amazon had a job here. And Chris had always said Toronto was one of the greatest cities and your home, so..." Gwen said, giving him a short explanation. Cody cocked an eyebrow, wondering if she's single or not.
"Is Chris your boyfriend?" Cody asked, smiling mischievously. Gwen stops at her track and turns to him with a little contemplating look.
"He's...a friend." Gwen muttered, not sure how to respond. Cody scoffed and nodded.
"Was he your boyfriend." Cody asked, playing it cool. Gwen was seriously getting uncomfortable to answer his questions.
"Do you mind if I don't into that right now?" Gwen asked, annoyed while continuing walking. Cody chuckles and starts following her.
"That must be hard for you. It's so not interesting to me-" Cody muttered but then he accidentally SLIPS! on a patch of ice. Gwen looks down at him and holds the urge to giggle. Every little clumsy thing he does was starting to become beyond charming to her.
"Heh, you okay? Anyway, I just felt it was time to erase the memory card and start over." Gwen added, telling him about her ex. Cody quickly stands up and brushes himself off with his hands.
"I think I'm obsessed with you." Cody added, dreamily. Gwen furrowed here eyebrows, confused.
"I didn't mean to get you obsessed...and you don't even know me." Gwen said, staring oddly at him. Cody shrugged his shoulders and smiles at her.
"You just used the term 'memory card'. That's sufficient grounds." Cody explained, randomly. Gwen stares at him confusingly, then shakes it off and answers.
"You still don't know anything about me." Gwen told him, walking to the swings. They both climb onto the swings.
"Well, you don't know anything about me either. So nah, heh." Cody teased, snickering. Gwen turns to him and cracks a small smile.
"I know you sleep with a guy." Gwen said, messing with him. Cody widen his eyes and got a little paled for what she said.
"Um..." Cody muttered, staring at her for a few seconds, wondering how she figured that out. Gwen notices the look on his face and smirks at him.
"I was guessing from having seen your apartment, but you totally do!" Gwen teased, laughing. Cody shakes his head, denying her point of view.
"No, um...it's...we're just poor. We can't afford two beds, or a bigger place. We're not gay. No, actually my roommate is very gay... He's gayer than Superman Returns." Cody explains with a panic look. Gwen giggles at his response and pats him on the leg.
"Dude, relax. I believe you. You're too desperate to be gay." Gwen said with a smirk. Cody sighed in relief and looks away from her, thinking a way to change the subject. Gwen JUMPS! off the swing, does three back flips and lands on the snow with Ninja grace. Cody clears his throat, turns back and reply to the empty swing next to him.
"So, I...Um...?" Cody started but then realizes that she's gone from her swing.
"Over here?" Gwen called after him. Cody follows her voice, spots her near the bouncy-horse 20 feet away. Cody gave a WTF look. Then he prepares to join her.
"I'm not desperate." Cody said, jumping off the swing.
He lands and SLIPS! on the ice, hitting the ground hard. Gwen smiles, amused by his clumsiness. Cody stands up and dust himself off, again.
"I'm mostly just stupid." Cody added, embarrassed. Gwen shrugged her shoulders and pursed her lips.
"Well, you're definitely stupid if you want to go out with me." Gwen pointed out, dusting the snow off his back. Cody nodded in agreement, feeling her hands against his back. He turns back to her.
"Yeaah..." Cody smitten, gazing at her eyes.
Later, Gwen and Cody are walking away from the swings. The snowfall gets heavier and colder, which made them winced.
"This is getting ridiculous. Isn't it, like, April?" Gwen asked, looking at the snowfall. Cody nodded in response, shacking as he tries to keep up the same pace.
"Yeah. I can barley see you. This whole thing is an unmitigated disaster." Cody said, shivering. Gwen scoffed at his remark.
"I think 'act of God' is a pretty decent excuse for a lousy date." Gwen muttered. Cody stop at his tracks and grins even bigger (Like that cat from Alice in Wonderland).
"So this is a 'date', eh?" Cody teased, touched by her words. Gwen stops and turns to him with a questioning look.
"Did I say date?" Gwen asked. Cody nodded in response, still grinning. Gwen shrugged her shoulders.
"Slip of the tongue." Gwen said, making an excuse.
"...Tongue." Cody weirdly repeated which made things awkward.
"Anyway, the night is not over yet. I think there's a thingy over here, somewhere." Gwen said, eying her surroundings. Cody furrowed his eyebrows, confused.
"A thingy?" Cody asked, wondering what she meant. Gwen turns back to him.
"A door." Gwen answered. A door with a star on it appears out of the whiteness. Gwen gestures him to come with her.
"Come on." Gwen said, extending her hand up to him. Cody looks down at her hand for a second, then slowly takes it. They fall through the open door.
Gwen Come Closer...
Inside Gwen's Apartment, Kitchen, Night:
Cody shivers at the kitchen table of Gwen's cozy, girl friendly apartment. he watches as she slips out of her coat.
"What kind of tea do you want?" Gwen asked, walking to her wall cabinet. Cody watches her walk by him, confused.
"There's more than one kind?" Cody asked, curiosity. Gwen opens the cabinet door, revealing a whole load of teas.
"We have blueberry, raspberry, smurfberry, ginseng, sleepytime, green tea, green tea with lemon, green tea with lemon and honey, liver disaster, ginger with honey, ginger without honey, vanilla almond, white truffle, coconut, lime cat, chamomile, porky's revenge, blood flavor, decaf, vanilla walnut, constant comment, killer's kiss, maximum overdrive and...earl grey." Gwen answered, rapidly. Cody stares at her, oddly and more confused.
"...Did you make some of those up?" Cody asked, not buying it. Gwen picks one of the tea and observes it with a smirk.
"I think I'll have sleepytime." Gwen suggested. Cody shrugged his shoulders and nodded in agreement.
"Sounds good to me." Cody muttered, freezing.
Seconds later, Gwen puts their tea on the table. She notice that Cody is shivering in the wind like the last leaf on a dying tree.
"Let me get you a blanket." Gwen said, exiting the kitchen. to her bedroom. Cody watches her leave.
"That would actually be awesome." Cody said, trying to make himself warm with his hands. She wanders off to her bedroom
After a moment alone, he was shivering more by the coldness. Cody paces around the apartment, waiting for his blanket. Then he ventures upstairs into Gwen's hallway. He wanders towards a half open door. Pushing it open, he finds Gwen in her bedroom in her bra and skirt, which made his eyes widen. After he gasped, Gwen turns over her shoulder and gave him a frustrated look.
"Dude, I'm changing." Gwen told him, but not harshly. Cody quickly cover his eyes, looking at nothing but darkness.
"Ahh! Sorry, I'm just cold." Cody said, very embarrassed.
"Here, does this help?" Hearing Gwen's voice. Cody suddenly felt warmly comfortable.
"Yeah, that's very warm. What is that?" Cody asked, wondering what's warming him up. Cody opens his eyes and revealed Gwen hugging him with a smile. Cody was surprised, he never expected her to hug him.
"Ohh...kayy." Cody murmured, looking into her eyes.
Gwen leans closer to him and begins a passionate kiss session. Cody returns the kiss and got lost into the awesome smothering. He imagines himself soundtracking the kiss with slinky bassline. They kiss for a few short second, then Gwen breaks off the kiss with a smile. Cody was daze, feeling like he's in heaven. He shakes it off and turns to her bed.
"Were you just gonna bring the blanket from your bed?" Cody asked, breathlessly. Gwen turns where he's looking and shrugged her shoulders.
"...I guess." Gwen muttered. Cody gives her a seducing smile, holding her waist with his hands.
"Maybe we should both get under it, since we're so cold." Cody suggested, playing it cool. Gwen returns the seductive smile.
"What about our tea?" Gwen asked, softly. Cody ponders for second before answering.
"What... about it?" Cody said, with a smirk.
Later, The slinky bassline continues as Gwen takes her skirt off, revealing black underwear to complement the black bra. They tumble onto the bed and make out some more. Cody takes off his shirt and kisses Gwen, deeply with such passion. Gwen was on top of Cody, under the covers of the blanket, none-stop make out. Then she breaks off the kiss and looks down at him.
"I changed my mind." Gwen said, which made Cody confused.
"Changed it to what? From what." Cody said, breathlessly, still dazed from the kiss. Gwen sighed and gives him a smirk.
"I don't wanna have sex with you, Pilgrim. Not right now." Gwen said, rolling off of him. "Damn it!" Cody thought, but he respectfully nodded in understanding.
"Okay." Cody muttered, accepting her word. Gwen turns to him and notice that he's not happy for not getting laid tonight, which amused her.
"It's not like I'm gonna send you home in the snowstorm or anything. You can sleep on my bed. And I reserve the right to change my mind about the sex later." Gwen said, trying to make him feel better. Cody nodded and put his arm around her, comforting.
"Well, this is nice. Just this. It's been, like a really long time, so I think I needed this, whatever it is, so thank you." Cody said softly and awkwardly. Gwen curls up next to Cody and kiss him on the cheek.
"You're welcome." Gwen whisper. They exchange a smile and close their eyes, sleeping peacefully together.
Fixed
