"Time to wake up baby girl. I got a big day planned for us."
Hannah was woken by a small kiss on her nose. She opened her eyes to see Cody hovering over her.
"Hey Code." She smiled groggily. She stood and found herself feeling sore. She let out a few tears as last night's memories washed over her.
"What's wrong hun?" Cody frowned.
"I'm s-so sore."
He didn't have to ask what she meant, he just held her in a tight embrace.
"Aww, it's okay."
"I was hoping it was a dream."
It broke his heart to hear her whimper like that.
"Well, I have some news for you."
She looked up at him curiously.
"Mike is in the hospital."
"'Cause of what you did?"
"Nah, I just roughed him up a bit. Someone attacked him in his room late last night."
"Oh my god. Who?"
"No one saw. There's no evidence and Mike doesn't remember a thing. But think about it. Who else would be that upset about what Mike did to you?"
"Drew." She concluded aloud.
"Exactly."
"Can I talk to you for a second, like heart to heart?"
"Anytime."
"Ok. I… I just feel like if Drew and I had been together last night it wouldn't have happened."
"What do you mean?"
"I feel like Drew would've stopped Mike somehow. I just… miss him. It's only been a day and I need his touch. I need to feel his arms around me. I need his warmth." She said, tears pouring down her face.
"Oh honey." Cody opened his arms and she fell into them. He sat down on the bed and pulled her into his lap. He stroked her hair.
"I don't get how he could do this to me. He said he loved me."
"I understand baby, it's alright."
"No! You don't understand! You have no idea how I feel about him!" She yelled and pushed him away.
"Yes I do." He replied, not getting mad at her.
"No! No one understands! I know people get heart broken all the time but it's different with Drew and I!" She screamed although her voice got softer with each word.
"I've loved him since the day I met him. There's just so much chemistry between us. I've never felt that way about any other guy and I doubt I'll ever feel that again."
"You will. I know it. If Drew wasn't your soul mate then you will find the right guy and he'll make you feel that way. Only better."
"Cody, not taking him back is the hardest thing I've ever had to do." She croaked, burying her head in his chest again.
"I know, honey, I know."
She had no clue how bad it hurt him to see her like this. He felt a stabbing pain in the pit of his stomach, he looked down. Nothing had hurt him, it was this feeling inside of him, gnawing at him. Getting worse and worse.
"I miss him so much Cody."
There it went again. Then he realized… it was jealousy. He didn't understand it at all. The last time he'd had feelings for a woman was over ten years ago before he'd come to terms with his sexuality.
"You're just upset that she's upset because she's your friend." He told himself.
"Well, I have an awesome day planned for us to cheer you up."
"Code, I don't really feel like going out today."
"Sitting in here all day is only going to make it worse."
"Ugh. I hate it when you're right."
"I know. Now go get dressed."
"Could you grab some more of my clothes from Drew's room?"
"No problem." He grabbed one of his empty suitcases and set off down the hallway.
He knocked on the door.
"Come in." Drew called out weakly.
Cody swung open the door and barged in.
"I'm just here to get more stuff."
Drew didn't answer. As he started packing everything of hers that was in the dresser Drew spoke up.
"Is she okay?"
"No."
"Did Mike hurt her?"
"Sore."
"Has she talked about me?"
"Constantly."
"Does she miss me?"
"Yes."
"Will she ever forgive me?"
"Not looking like it."
"Can you tell her I'm sorry?"
"No."
"Why?"
At this point Cody was getting frustrated.
"Look, Drew, you hurt her. Bad. She's a mess without you and I plan on fixing her! I am not going to let you give her some sappy apology to make her even more upset and make it harder for her to get over you!"
"Ok." Drew answered simply and just sat back down on the bed. Cody quickly finished gathering Hannah's things and walked back to his room.
"I got all of your stuff."
"Thanks Cody." She said with a hug.
"No prob, hun."
"So where are we going?" She asked as she got dressed.
"You'll find out when we get there." He grinned.
She sighed, slipped on her favorite pair of flip flops and followed him out to his car.
He held open the door for her, then jogged around to the driver's side.
"First of all, we need some tunes." Cody said, before turning on the radio. "Now, breakfast is the most important meal of the day, so we are going to stop and get a nice healthy breakfast."
"McDonalds?" She questioned.
"Duh."
They both laughed as he pulled into the McDonald's drive thru.
They ordered their food and drove off.
"Oh! It's a Ke$ha song! Crank it up!" Hannah yelled. Cody turned up the volume and belted out the lyrics into an imaginary microphone. Hannah giggled and joined in for the chorus. Soon, she was clutching her stomach from laughing so hard.
"Tick tock on the clock, DJ blow my speakers up! Tonight imma fight 'til we see the sunlight!" Cody screeched, off tune, only making her laugh more.
The song ended just as Cody pulled into the parking lot of a large amusement park.
"This is where we're going?" Hannah asked.
"Yeah, if you don't want to, I'm sure I can find somewhere else to take you."
"No, I like it." She grinned. "I need to let go and feel like a kid again for today."
"Then let's go!" He pulled her out of the car and they ran into the park side by side.
"Roller coaster time!" She shouted, dragging him in line for the largest roller coaster in the entire park. After they paid for their tickets, they sat in the front seat of the car and waited anxiously for it to start.
When it finally did, it was a lot faster than she'd expected. She screamed and buried her head in Cody's chest as they went down the first drop. She stayed there until it was over, and as they stepped off she tripped.
"Little dizzy there are we?" He chuckled. She nodded.
They spent the rest of the day riding everything, playing games, and eating soft pretzels.
"Aww it's adorable!" Hannah beamed as Cody handed her the huge teddy bear he'd just won for her. "Thanks! Now I have a teddy bear and my Cody bear!"
Cody chuckled and kissed her forehead. Suddenly he glimpsed someone about twenty feet away.
"Shit, Drew's over there." He whispered.
"What?" She exclaimed, looking around. "Where?"
"By the fountain."
"Fuck, Cody we gotta go!"
"No, he is not going to ruin our fun. He's watching us now. Do you want to make him go away? I know how."
She nodded immediately.
"Open your mouth."
She raised an eyebrow, but did as he asked.
He shoved a large piece of cotton candy into her open mouth. After it melted she laughed.
"What was that for?"
"So your breath didn't stink when I did this."
Before she could ask what he meant, he grabbed her and kissed her deeply. It took him a minute to realize that she wasn't kissing back.
He pulled away an inch.
"You wanna make this believable right?"
She nodded again.
"Then kiss me back."
She pressed their lips together with so much force and passion that he staggered back a few feet before lifting her up into his arms.
A few minutes later, he broke apart.
"Good job, look at his face."
She turned around and smirked when she saw the mixture of shock and pain on Drew's face.
"Doesn't it feel good to make him feel like you did?"
She nodded with a grin.
"Now only one more thing to do, follow my lead." He began walking towards Drew while holding her hand.
"Wait, why are we going over to talk to him?" She panicked.
"It'll be fine." He reassured her. "Hey Drew, what's up?" Cody smiled brightly.
Drew didn't reply at first.
"This is how you plan on fixing her? Playing with her emotions? You're gay Cody!" He hissed.
Cody just shrugged.
"If that's what you want to call it. But I think I'm doin' a pretty damn good job, look at her."
Hannah made sure to grin when Drew glanced over at her.
"Plus, I don't think you should be talking about playing with her emotions, asshole. You're the reason she's with me in the first place. You and that whore Erika." Cody snapped, then before Drew could respond he turned to Hannah. "Let's go babe." He used the term of endearment just to irritate Drew, which worked. He took Hannah's hand and led her away.
"That was awesome." Hannah giggled when they were far away from Drew.
"You're really good at acting. Now let's go. I still have more planned." Cody grinned and walked her back to the car.
She waited patiently as he drove to the batting cages.
"Code, I suck at sports."
"It's hitting a ball, how bad could you be?" He asked as they walked inside.
"Wow, you suck." He chuckled as he watched her miss ball after ball.
"Told you." She muttered.
"Whoa, look who just walked in."
"Shit." She whispered as she glimpsed Drew.
"Ya think he's following us?"
"Definitely."
"Then we'll give him a show." He whispered as Drew came closer.
"C'mere babe, this is how you do it." He said loudly, wanting Drew to hear him. He stood behind Hannah and wrapped his arms around her so his hands were on top of hers. He gripped the bat tightly and made her swing with it. He quickly glanced over to Drew, who looked a little upset. But not nearly enough. He held Hannah closer and began grinding on her.
"Cody!" She exclaimed, shocked.
"He's watching." He whispered back. "Why are you so uncomfortable with this? Do you like it? I thought you were acting a little too well." He smirked.
"Shut up." She muttered.
"I love being this sexy." He laughed. She elbowed him in the gut.
"Ow."
Drew's teeth were now clenched so tight it was painful.
"Our work here is done, let's go."
She followed him to the car. A few minutes later, they arrived at a secluded river bank.
"What are we doing here?" She raised an eyebrow.
He just smiled and pointed all the way to the other side of the river, a small clearing was barely visible.
"Well, how are we getting over there?"
He moved his extended finger towards the water and she noticed that there was a trail of tiny rocks, no more than a foot long each, leading all the way across.
"Uh, no way am I walking on them. I am far too uncoordinated."
"True." He chuckled. "But I won't let you fall." With that, he hopped onto the first platform. When she didn't follow, he extended his hand to her. "I promise."
She bit her lip and her brow furrowed before she hesitantly took his hand. He grinned and helped her onto the first rock as he stepped to the second.
"You can convince me to do anything, can't you?" She smiled.
"What can I say? It's a gift."
She followed closely behind him, clutching tightly onto his hips as he stepped from rock to rock. He was a bit nervous himself but he didn't show it, he knew her biggest fear was drowning and he wasn't going to make things worse for her. About twenty minutes later, they were almost the whole way across. Suddenly her shoe slid on the moist rock and she was sent toppling into the water. All it took was hearing her shriek and he was in action. Cody dove into the waves and swam under. He immediately noticed her flailing limbs about ten feet away. That certainly wasn't helping her stay afloat longer. He quickly went back to the surface, took a gulp of fresh air, then went back under. As he swam over to her, he felt a sting on his shoulder. He winced but kept swimming and wrapped her squirming body in his arms. She relaxed almost instantaneously and he carried her to shore. They were close enough now for him to carry her straight to the clearing they'd been heading for. He laid her down on the ground as she sputtered for air.
"It's alright baby." He cooed, stroking her hair.
After making sure she was okay, he took off his soaking wet shirt. She gasped when she saw the blood dripping down his right arm.
"Are you alright?" She asked, still coughing.
"Fine, but I'm not worried about me, I'm worried about you. Are you ok?"
"I'm fine. Now what happened to you?"
"I have no clue." He grimaced as the wound stung. She frowned at his pain and ripped a piece of cloth off of her shirt.
"Why'd you do that? I love that shirt on you, you look adorable."
She didn't answer, just wrapped the fabric around his wounded arm, letting it soak up his blood.
His bottom lip jutted out.
"Thanks, but I'm still upset you ripped your shirt."
"Oh shush up and let me play nurse." She grinned, brushing his forehead with her lips.
"Fine by me." He folded his arms behind his head and smiled.
A few minutes later she laid down beside him after she was satisfied with her make do bandage. He pulled her closer to him.
"We are too wet to be cuddling right now." She chuckled, contradicting herself by nuzzling her head into the crook of his neck.
"I know but at least we're both wet."
"Good point." She smirked, and paused for a moment, looking around. "Codes, is it just me or do you feel like we're being watched?" She whispered.
"Yeah… maybe we are. I wouldn't put it past Drew. So keep up with the act, k?" He replied so quietly Hannah had to strain her ears to hear him.
She nodded and immediately became more flirty. She crawled on top of him and just laid there, occasionally kissing his neck. She was able to feel his heart pound through his toned chest.
"Hey Code, what time is it?"
"Time for you to buy a watch."
"Time for you to get a new joke." She giggled, elbowing him in the gut.
"I'm happy." She said randomly.
"Uh, me too but why?"
"I'm with you."
He broke into a huge grin.
"Then I'm happy too."
"Cody, thanks."
"For what?"
"Today. Being there for me, taking me out, getting my mind off of him. Everything."
"It was my pleasure hun."
He kissed her cheek before she rolled over and relaxed in his lap, watching the stars.
