Oh my god. I have never been in more of a state of confusinosity. What shall I do?

7 minutes later

When I got there, Dave was already at a booth with two coffees. Mine was a cappuccino.

Damn.

He said, "Hello there, gorgeous. Miss me?"

"I just saw you about two days ago."

He pretended to be hurt.

"Alright, Miss Georgia, fine. So anyway, I have come to tell you not to get too weird about Saturday. I know how you can get and…Well, it's not fair on Emma or the Handbag Horse or whatever you call him if we-"

"Dave."

"-If we keep on like this in secret. I know I said that luuurve is a many trousered thing but you can't just keep seeing Masimo like this and-"

"Oooh, I forgot to tell you-I'm visiting him in Pizza-a-gogo Land this Wednesday! Fabby, isn't it?"

He looked a bit sad then. Then he said "Yeah, fabby…"

I began my hamster coffee method very discreetly. I definitely didn't want him to notice that I was sipping coffee like a hamster in a skirt. No he definitely wasn't noticing, my plan was worki-

"Georgia, why in the name of Hitler's pants are you sipping your coffee like a hamster?"

"Well…You see, when I sip it like a hamster, I avoid the Santa Claus moustache effect that you get from all the foam on a cappuccino."

Dave looked at me like I was mad. Then he just snogged me! Right there in the coffee shop! In front of everyone. What if Ellen was there? Although she does have Dec, but she probably still would be mad at me for snogging Dave and…"

As my brain chattered away to itself, Dave pulled away from me. He said, "Come on, sex kitty, I'm meeting the lads and some of your mates at the clock tower in a few minutes. Come with me?"

I was still a bit shocked, but I said, "OK."

2 minutes later

As we were walking towards the clock tower, Dave had his arm around me. It was nice, in a mates-type sort of way. We were just sort of chatting about everything when I said, "So what do you think about me going to Italy? I bet Masimo has gotten me some great Pizza-a-gogo prezzie. What do you think?"

He glanced at me. Then he said, "I hope you have fun, I guess, kitty cat, but I'll miss you."

"It's only for a week!"

"That's enough for anyone. You'll be scarred by all the sports bras and pink high heels. And the women are just as bad."

"Dave, don't even start…"

We arrived at the clock tower just then, and I saw that Emma was there. Dave quickly took his arm off me. I don't think she noticed, though. We all started heading for the town square. Jas was rambling on about how she and Hunky had been on a nature walk (honestly, the wildlife around here must be scarred for life by now) so I turned my attention to Rosie, who was taking a bit of a break from being practically eaten by Sven. She said, "So I hear you are going to visit the Italian Stallion next week."

I said, "Yes, and it is going to be marvy."

"Are you bringing your boy entrancers?"

"Of course."

"Are you sure that's a good idea, Miss Oh My the Boy Entrancers Have Stuck Together and Now I'm Stumbling About With My Eyes Closed?"

I biffed her on the arm, which made it go paralyzed, and she almost knocked Rollo out. I think he may have lasting damage.

1 minute later

Most of the gang went into a shop for a minute, leaving Tom and I alone outside. I said, "Don't you ever get bored of going on nature rambles? The badgers probably flee in terror from the sound of a twig snapping from the trauma of you two."

He laughed. "Yeah, I guess sometimes I do…"

Then he looked at me really strangely. He took a step toward me.

He said quietly, "The thing is, Gee…I've been looking for a way to end it with Jas for a while. I can…sort of see what Robbie saw in you."

What? What? I didn't have time to think any more because Tom leaned in and KISSED me.

He sort of leaned forward so I was against the building. I was just thinking, what

next?, but then I heard a sort of shocked "Oh!" from the shop doorway, and when I turned, my stomach dropped. Dave narrowed his eyes, opened his mouth, shut it again, and went back into the shop.

I pushed Tom away from me.

"Georgia, I-"

I ran, because I didn't know what else to do. There WAS nothing else I could do.

I can't believe Dave saw me. What if he tells Jas? How will I tell him it was a mistake?

Life can not get any pooier.

Now what?

To my reviewers- thanks for the support! I couldn't bother with suspense because I just had to update. Oh well. Hope you liked the new chappie!
