Ivy giggled as she pulled Ted into the hotel room. It was February and their two year anniversary. They had just gone out to dinner, but Ivy currently had other things on her mind. She pushed Ted down onto the bed and moved so that she was straddling his legs.
"Wait isn't this usually the other way around?" Ted asked.
"Shut up," Ivy said, before kissing him. He wrapped his arms around her waist as her tongue slipped into his mouth. She began tugging at the hem of his shirt.
"Geez someone's horny," Ted whispered into Ivy's ear.
"I can't help that my fiancée gets me all hot and bothered," She said, smirking. She then kissed him again, even more passionately. They were interrupted by banging on the door.
"Ignore it," Ted said, before kissing Ivy. The banging continued.
"Ted, Ivy?" They heard Cody call from outside. "I hate to bother you, but I really need to talk to you." Ivy sighed and got off Ted's lap. She started to walk over to the door.
"Come on hun," Ted said quietly. "It can't be that important."
"You be patient Mister," Ivy said, before heading over to the door. She opened the door to see Cody, with his head down. "Cody?" He looked up at her and she could see his eyes were extremely red from crying. "Oh my gosh, Cody what's wrong?" He nodded inside the room and Ivy stepped aside. She shut the door.
"Hey man, are you okay?" Ted asked as Cody leaned against the wall. Cody shook his head.
"What happened?" Ivy asked. Cody took a shaky breath.
"I told April I loved her," Cody said. "And she broke up with me." Ivy's jaw nearly dropped.
"That just doesn't sound like April," Ivy said.
"Well maybe you don't know her as well as you thought," Cody hissed.
"Cody I know April cares about you," Ivy said.
"Clearly not!" Cody screamed at Ivy. Ivy backed away from Cody and Ted stood up so he was closer to her. "Clearly she never gave a damn about me because she just broke my heart!"
"It's just not like her," Ivy said, trying to rationalize the situation.
"Stop trying to defend that stupid bitch!" Cody shouted. Ivy had enough at that moment. Her hand swung at Cody and made contact with his cheek. Cody stumbled backwards into the wall, before sliding down to the floor. Ivy stepped back, shock etched onto her face.
"Oh my gosh," She said quietly. Then Ivy quickly bolted from the room. Ted sat down on the bed as he stared at Cody. Cody's hand was holding onto his face where Ivy had struck him.
"I'm sorry," Cody said quietly.
"It's not me you should be apologizing to," Ted said. Cody looked up at him and sighed before resting his head against the wall.
Ivy nearly ran all the way to April's room. She banged on the door.
"April!" She called. "April open the door!" The door opened and April let Ivy in.
"You know, don't you?" All the anger disappeared from Ivy as she looked at her best friend. April's eyes were red and puffy from crying. She was standing in a way that she almost looked even smaller than she actually was. Ivy ran over and hugged April. April's body began to shake from her crying. Ivy gently moved so they were sitting down.
"What happened?" Ivy asked.
"We were just sitting in his room watching a movie," April said, wiping the tears from her eyes. "We were watching some romantic comedy and Cody suddenly pauses the movie and looks at me. I thought he was bored with the movie and wanted to do something else. But he's just looking at me for the longest time with this adorably goofy smile on his face." She stopped to catch her breath since she was still crying. "And then he said it. He just came right out and told me he loved me. And I freaked out."
"Why?" Ivy asked.
"Because the last time I got serious with a guy," April began. "He broke my heart. And I was scared that that would happen with me and Cody. So I thought it would just be easier if I ended it before I got hurt again."
"But you hurt him," Ivy said.
"I know," April said. "I didn't think he would take it as badly as he did."
"But April," Ivy said. "Layla broke up with him because she said they had no chemistry. And then you go and break up with him because you don't love him."
"But I do!" April shouted.
"Well he doesn't know that, does he?" Ivy asked. April's head fell as she began to silently cry again. "I don't mean to seem like I'm taking his side." She stood up. "Honestly, I just slapped Cody for calling you a bitch." April didn't move and Ivy sighed. "He loves you April. You should know that means he's not going to hurt you." Then she walked out of them room.
Ted and Cody were still seated in the same positions that Ivy had left them in when she returned to the room. Cody stood up when she walked into the room.
"Ivy I'm sorry," Cody said, his voice hoarse.
"Look there's something you need to know,"
April was lying on her bed, tears slowly falling down her face. She was thinking about everything Ivy had said to her. Ivy was right, but April had screwed up. Cody would never want to talk to her again. She heard a quiet knock at the door. April sighed as she slowly made her way to the door. When she opened the door, she was surprised to see Cody standing there.
"Hey," He said quietly. "Can we talk?" April nodded and let him walk in. She shut the door and walked over to her bed. She noticed the red mark on his face. Cody noticed her staring. "Ivy smacked me, pretty hard. My fault for shooting my mouth off."
"Cody," April began but Cody cut her off.
"Ivy told me," Cody said. "She told me about how you were hurt in your last relationship and how you were scared about history repeating itself. Honestly, I was scared that if I told you I loved you, you would run away." April looked down at her feet. "But that doesn't mean I didn't mean it. I love you April and you can run away or say you don't feel the same, but it's not going to change how I feel." April looked up into Cody's eyes. And for the first time, in a long time, she felt it.
"Cody," April said quietly. She took a deep breath. "I, I love you." She felt her body shaking in fear as her eyes teared up. Cody stepped towards her.
"Yeah?" He asked. April nodded.
"Yeah," She said. Cody wrapped his arms around April and hugged her. April buried her head into his shirt and hugged him back. Cody gently kissed her forehead before leaning his head on hers.
Ivy sighed as she put her phone on the nightstand.
"Well apparently everything's okay," Ivy said, sitting down next to Ted.
"I still can't believe you slapped Cody," Ted said. "Or how hard you smacked him."
"Well he insulted my best friend," Ivy said. Ted smirked as Ivy gave him a cheeky grin. He scooted closer to her.
"You know we were interrupted earlier," He pointed out, while drawing circles on Ivy's arm. "And technically, it's still our anniversary."
"Well I don't really like leaving things unfinished," Ivy said, before giving her fiancée a look. Ted took that as an okay and pulled Ivy in for a kiss. Ivy pulled away. "But I'm kind of tired." She tried to move away, but Ted grabbed hold of her and pinned his body over hers.
"Oh no," He said. "I hate leaving things unfinished." Then he pressed his lips to hers. His hand moved down, quickly removing Ivy's jeans. Ivy let out a moan as his hand ran over her underwear.
"Don't tease me like that," Ivy managed to squeak out. Ted smirked deviously as he kissed his fiancée again.
