Tada!

-.-.-

"Cody?" Squib called from behind the door. "It's me. Can I come in?"

"Uh…hold on," she replied, hastily running to the mirror to check her hair and makeup for the fifth time that night. But, realizing it was only Squib and she had no need to be nervous, she calmly opened the door.

"Hey, I thought you- woah…" Squib stopped dead in his tracks at the sight before him. Gaping, he stood immobile on her doorstep.

"You like it? Remy gave it to me."

Still in semi-shock, Squib said, "Cody, you look…amazing." She blushed a shade that could compete with her hair colour. "So where is Remy, anyway?"

"She's out with my father tonight," she said, as Squib stepped inside. She closed the door behind him. "So it's just you and me."

"Great," he said, not taking his eyes off her.

"I didn't really know what you wanted," Cody said. She had one hand on her hip, the other scratching the back of her head. "So, I just made pasta. Is that okay?"

"Sure, I'm starving. Let's eat."

-.-.-

"So, what movie did you get?" Squib asked, wiping his mouth with a napkin.

"Gone with the Wind."

"Is it any good?"

Cody put her fork down and stared wide-eyed at him. "You've never seen Gone with the Wind?"

"Nope."

A smile crept across her features. "Oh, it's a classic," she said dreamily.

"Well let's go then."

"Sure. Just leave the dishes on the table," she said leading him to the tv. Squib sat on the sofa while Cody popped the tape in.

"It is such a great movie," she said, sitting down next to him. "You'll like it, I promise."

"I trust your judgement," he said, sliding his arm around the back of her neck. She quivered when she felt his hand slide past her shoulder and rest somewhere near her upper arm. Just his touch was enough to drive her insane, and she didn't dare give him any reason to take has arm away.

-.-.-

Some time later, Cody awoke to find the ending credits rolling up the tv screen and Squib's slow methodical breathing next to her. His arm had abandoned her shoulder and was now resting on her upper thigh. She nearly giggled at the whole idea of it all, but stopped herself in case he woke up.

Yawning, she hit the rewind button on the remote, then looked at Squib.

He really does look cute when he's sleeping, she thought. And his hair looks so soft…I wonder…

No. She couldn't touch his hair. That was just…foolish. He'd probably think she'd gone mad if he woke up to find her hand on his head.

Or would he?

Slowly, Cody extended her arm, and let her hand graze the top of Squib's head. It is soft. She amused herself with his hair for several minutes before realizing his lips were slightly parted, his breath coming out in short puffs. His lips looked as soft as his hair.

She could…

Snap out of it, Cody! she thought, mentally kicking herself. You can't just go kissing people while they're sleeping!

Then again…would he even wake up?

Before she realized it, Cody found herself drawing nearer and nearer to his face. With bated breath, she closed her eyes and hoped for the best.

Just then, Squib grunted, jolting her out of her reverie. Hurriedly, she propelled herself off the sofa and began busying herself with the tape, doing her best to hide the blush creeping up her cheeks.

"Wow, what time is it?" Squib asked, yawning.

"Uhh…ten," she said, not bothering to look at him.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Dunno. I just woke up a few minutes ago."

"I should probably be getting back," he said, picking himself up off the sofa. "Thanks for a great night, Cody, even if I did sleep through most of it."

"Sure, anytime," she replied quickly. Feeling she couldn't avoid his eyes forever, she turned to face him.

"Are you okay?" he asked. He put a hand to her cheek, which only made her face burn even more. "You look flushed," he said, "Maybe you're getting sick."

"I'm fine," she said, pulling his hand away from her face. She didn't let go of his arm.

"As long as you're sure…I'll see you tomorrow then?" he said, leaning down and giving her a quick kiss on the cheek.

"Sure. Tomorrow. Right."

"Uh, Cody?"

"Hm?"

"My hand."

Flustered, she let go of his hand and mumbled, "Sorry. I'll walk you to the door." Cody made her way to the door in a rush, and held it open for him. "Bye, Squib."

"Bye, Cody," he called after her, and she shut the door behind him. Annoyed, she leaned against the back of the door and slid all the way down to the floor. She buried her face in her hands and sighed. Why do I have to be like this? She thought. It's only Squib.

Only Squib…

-.-.-
