"It was weird, Ty." Deuce said as he put the tray of pizza in front of them. "I mean, I didn't care if Dina was jealous or not."

"Have you ever thought that maybe...you actually like Cece." Ty took a piece of pizza and put it on his plate.

"That's impossible." Deuce gave out a nervous laugh. "Cece and I have been best friends for years, she could never like me."

Ty smiled. "I didn't say she liked you. I said you liked her."

"Doesn't matter. She just thinks of this as making Dina jealous."

"So, tell her it's turned into something more than that." Ty took a bite of his pizza.

"It's not that simple. First, we have to find out if she likes me back."

"She kissed you, didn't she?"

"Yeah, but that's only because Dina was there." Deuce took another piece of pizza and put it on his plate.

"Did she know Dina was there?"

"Well…No, her back was turned. I didn't even know Dina was there."

"Well, there you go."

Cece staggered her way to the door to find Rocky on the other side of it.

"Hey." Rocky stepped inside and Cece made her way back to the couch. "Why are you walking like that?"

"I painted my toenails." Cece put her feet up on the coffee table.

Rocky sat beside her. "So, what was all that with Deuce today at lunch?"

"What do you mean?"

"I mean…you kissed him."

"So?" Cece shrugged. "We're supposed to be fake dating, remember?"

"Yeah, except none of it looked fake." Rocky crossed her arms and smiled at her best friend.

"I guess we're really good actors."

"You still like Duece!" Rocky shouted. "I knew it! Ever since he started dating Dina, you've been totally jealous but kept trying to play it off!"

"Okay, okay! But Deuce does NOT know and he doesn't need to know! He wants Dina back." Cece played with her hands.

"Tell him!" Rocky pleaded.

"Why?"

"Because…Because I heard him and Ty talking at the pizzeria today and Deuce totally has a crush on you."

"He does?" Cece perked up. "Are you sure?"

"Yes! Now-."

The doorbell rang, interrupting Rocky's sentence and making Cece have to get up and answer it.

"Dina?" Cece said as she opened the door, expecting a slap in the face.

Rocky came to the door and opened it wider. "Hey. What are you doing here?"

"I…I wanted to tell you, Cece, that you and Deuce really do make a cute couple." Dina said, looking at her feet.

"Thanks, Dina." A voice said from behind her.

"Deuce!" Cece beamed and ran to him, throwing her arms around his neck. "What are you doing here?"

"Ty and I thought we'd hang out." He smiled down at her, and felt Ty nudge his arm a little, so he leaned down and kissed her.

"I'll see you guys later." Dina smiled and put a hand on Cece's shoulder before walking away.

Deuce, Cece, Rocky, and Ty were sitting on the couch, watching The Hills Have Eyes.

Cece jumped and dug her head into Deuce's shoulder. "This is so creepy."

Deuce had his arm wrapped around her and he laughed. "It's just a movie, Cecelia." He whispered in her ear, teasing her.

Cece looked up at him. "Deuce? What are we?"

"What do you mean?"

"Are we…together…or…?"

"Do you want to be?" He whispered, leaning in. "Because I do…a lot."

"I do, too." She closed her eyes.

"A lot?"

"A lot." She kissed him, cupping his face with her left hand and holding him closer.

"Hey!" Ty threw popcorn at them. "We're trying to watch a movie here!" he joked, making all of them laugh.

Cece sighed with content and rested both of her legs over Deuce's knees. She relaxed into his body and leaned her head against his shoulder, closing her eyes and smiling.
