Caleb: (gasp) YOU'RE PLANNING ON BREAKING ME UP WITH CORNELIA?!?! (puppy dog face)

Cornelia sat in her dorm doing extra credit for the next day, not even paying attention to what she was doing. As she sat in the desk next to the tv, she began to think. I shouldn't let those thoughts worry me ((refer to last chapter if you don't get it)). I'm gonna tell him right when he comes back. He'll be so happy...and...I'm happy too. Cornelia smiled as she continued to do her work. Just then, the click of the door was heard and Caleb came through the door with a worried look. Cornelia looked up and raised an eyebrow.
"Caleb? Are you ok?"
Caleb walked over to her and sat in the chair in front of hers. "Cornelia...you don't care about... never mind"
Cornelia let her pen go as she looked at him curiously, "Care about what?"
Caleb looked up at her sparkling eyes and sighed, "Would you...still love me even if my parents are total freaks...?" Caleb looked down in embarrasment. Did he just say that? What? That is a STUPID question, Caleb. Stupid stupid stupid. She's probably gonna think you're a little kid now (smacks).
Cornelia giggled at his embarrasment, "What's with the sudden random question? My parents are the same way. I don't care how weird your parents are."
"Well...the reason I'm asking is because..." Caleb sighed as he looked up at her with shades of red on his face, "...my parents are coming here tomorrow to meet you"
"Why me?" Cornelia asked as she put her pen down.
Caleb raised his eyebrow and smiled, "It's because they want to meet the girl that has me traveling across the world for her."
Then it hit her. He wasn't using a cheesy line. He actually did go across the world for her. Cornelia smiled to herself. Flashbacks of when he left came back to her. She remembered how he had hit the employee at McDonald's for calling her a bitch, how he confessed he loved her since day one, how...he left her...How...Alan almost...Cornelia shuddered. But then she remembered how Caleb got so angry at him. He flew back to her just to make sure she was ok. If it wasn't for him, she'd probably be traumatized for life and scared. She knew that he wasn't like the others. All the other boys only liked her and gave her chocolates because she had a beautiful face. And she did, but she knew Caleb cared more about the inside. She found it rare to find someone like him...which brought her to realize that she had to tell him!
Cornelia suddenly beamed, "Caleb!...Oh well...are you done?"
Caleb sneered, "Oh fine, ignore me. I don't care. I can solve my own problems."
"I don't mean it like that! Geez. About your parents...well I don't mind meeting them. I mean, how bad can it be? But...I am kinda nervous actually..." Cornelia said softly.
Caleb raised an eyebrow as he got up to get grapes from the fridge, "Nervous? Why?"
Cornelia opened her mouth to speak, but she couldn't for some reason. She saw Caleb sit down again and put the grapes on the table to share with her. "Well...what if they don't like me...", she finally said.
Caleb held back a laugh, but couldn't hold it back. He started laughing loudly as he took a grape and put it in his mouth. Cornelia glared, "This is not funny! I'm serious! Ugh, you're so self-centered."
Caleb stopped laughing after a few giggles ((not girly )) and glared at her mockingly, trying to upset her on purpose, "Well you're so arrogant, Miss Bossy Pants". Cornelia fumed as she crossed her arms and turned the other way in slight anger. Caleb smiled, "It's so cute when you're angry".
"It's not supposed to be cute!" Cornelia mumbled.
Caleb chuckled, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh. It's just that, how can you possibly ask a question like that? Everything about you is likeable," Caleb got up as he walked to her. "Just promise not to be like you were when you first met me, and you'll be fine," Caleb kissed the top of her head and went over to lay down on his bed.
Cornelia blushed, "Okay, I promise. So, now can I tell you?"
Caleb sat up and nodded, "Go ahead." She sighed as she walked over to his bed and sat in front of him, "You know how when we were in the Christmas Break, you told me that you had a promised girl. That you loved her and you gave her a lucky charm so that she would never forget you...?"
Caleb's eyes widdened as he held her hands suddenly, "Yes I do, but don't let that get in the way of our relationship. You know that I won't do something stupid as to leave the most perfect girl with someone I haven't seen in a long time."
A soft smile traced her lips. He was scared, she realized. The incident with Amy was all because of the promised girl. He didn't want to lose someone important to him because of that again.
"I know...but...have I told you that I have a promised boy too?" Cornelia took out the lucky charm she always kept with her and showed it to him. "Remember when you returned it to me when I lost it? That boy gave this to me so I could never forget him...Doesn't this look familiar to you, Caleb?"
Caleb's face turned confused as he took out his wallet and took out the picture of the little girl with green eyes. He looked at it for some time and back at Cornelia, "But...my promised girl has green eyes. It's impossible."
Cornelia would not give up. She stood up and took out her suitcase to look for something. After a few minutes, she took out a small photo album and brought it back to Caleb. "Open it and look at the little girl in the picture", Cornelia said as she passed him the album. Caleb was still confused, but he opened the book. In the first page it read, Childhood Memories. When he flipped the page his eyes widdened completely. He took the picture that was in his wallet and took out a picture of the album and put them side by side. The same little girl with green eyes and light blonde hair was in both pictures.
"I-...It's you...You're-...", Caleb immediatley dropped everything and hugged her tightly. Cornelia smiled wide and hugged him back. She had never felt so happy as she did in this moment.
"I knew it! There had to be some connection with you and my promised girl..." Caleb burried his face in her shoulder and cried. Yes. He cried. Cornelia was a little shocked when she heard the soft sobbing and the slight tremble of his body. Why was he crying?
"Caleb? Why...Why are you crying?" Cornelia asked a little hesitatingly.
Caleb's response was a louder sob as he held her tighter to him. "Cornelia...I know that I'm not the type of guy who expresses most of what they think but...I just need you to understand something...". Caleb pushed her away gently to look at her face, his a little red and his eyes watery, "You are the only one who has ever seen this side of me. Cornelia..this proves that you were the only one meant for me."
Cornelia's eyes started to water as well. Seeing Caleb like this was a little contagious. He had such a seriousness in his eyes that she knew he wasn't kidding. "Cornelia, I don't care how and I don't care why. I don't care if anyone doesn't like it, I don't care if I won't ever have friends again , but I want you..no..need you to be by my side forever. No, I can't ask you to marry me even though I wish I could".
Cornelia smiled at that, "Caleb yo-"
"No please...I need to speak my mind", Caleb interrupted as Cornelia nodded.
"You know there were times when I thought...I didn't deserve you. That you always deserved better than me. I mean, I'm not really social with other people and I can be sorta...obnoxious (sp?). But I don't care anymore. I must've done something right to deserve you. And I don't care if anyone has anything to say, because I know now that I don't have to wait for my promised girl...she's sitting right here with me", Caleb held onto her like his life depended on it. Cornelia hugged him back and smiled. She knew she had a place where she belonged now.
The next day at the arcade...
"SQUEEEEEEEE!!!!!! YOU TWO ARE SO PERFECT FOR EACH OTHER!" Hay Lin squealed at Elyon and Alex. It just so happened that Elyon had tripped and Alex caught her, as Alex kissed her forehead and Hay Lin just so happened to pass by.
"HAY LIN! Don't yell!" Elyon flushed as she turned the other way. "Aw come on Eli, we all know you love it", Alex smirked as he straightened her up and kissed her cheek.
"You guys are so perfect! I mean seriously! You're the best couple there is!...Wait...", Hay Lin looked at all the gang who had really weird faces plastered on them.
"Hay Lin...we told you that you have to leave the cinnabuns for later..not in the MORNING!" Taranee sighed.
"But hey! Two are missing here!" Hay Lin huffed. And five seconds later her face turned into a huge grin. "Oh no...what? Who's missing?" Irma looked around. Hay Lin's grin turned wider, "Who knows where the double C's are?"
"Oh they went to get us fries...Hay Lin why do you have that face?" Eric asked as he went over to hold her close (Usually helped so she wouldn't get out of control lol). "Haven't you guys noticed something different today about them?", Hay Lin asked with the same grin on her face.
Everyone thought about it but then just stared at her with confused faces. Hay Lin sighed, "You people are blind, I swear. Like..usually yes we all know that Caleb can be very..testy when it comes to Corny. Like when guys try to do anything, he gets all ninja on the guy. But today..didn't you notice that the entire time, he didn't take his eyes off of her, he held her hand the entire time, and plus! any guy that even looked at her he would growl and hold her closer".
Alex's mouth opened wide, "How do you notice these things?! What are you a stalker?"
Cricket. Cricket.
"...Noooooo..."
"STALKEEEEEER!" Martin acused as he hid behind Irma.
"I don't think that is considered stalking, MARTIN! I just listen...a lot.." Hay Lin coughed and looked around innocently.
Irma rolled her eyes and smiled, "Same ol' Hay Lin. But you know she has a point, Caleb was being more of the 'Back off, bitch' type of guy today. Not that he's not all the time". Taranee nodded her head, "I think something happened yesterday"
Will smiled wide, "When they come back, we'll approach the subject slooowly". Hay Lin nodded her head like a little girl. And right on cue, Cornelia and Caleb came to them bringing them a whole bunch of french fries.
"These things are burning my fingers, get them now before my fingers become french fries too" Caleb said in a desperate voice as everyone got their fries from Caleb. Caleb offered to carry all the fries instead of Cornelia carrying some.
"So..." Eric grinned at everyone.
"SO WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN YOU AND CORNY YESTERDAY?!" Hay Lin giggled. Everyone groaned and sent glares to her. Hay Lin just rubbed the back of her head and laughed nervously.
Cornelia and Caleb blushed as they looked down in embarrasment. "Oooooh something did happen! Spill!" Irma smirked.
"Well to put it in short..." Cornelia smiled up at Caleb, who came behind her to hug her.
"Let's just say we finally found who our promised people were", Caleb blushed a little deeper as he kissed his angel's head.
All the girls gasped and squealed as they all jumped on them and hugged them, "I KNEW IT I KNEW IT!" Hay Lin giggled. The guys just stared at them, "Why are girls always like this?" Eric asked. "I have no idea..it's kinda scary actually..." Nigel added.
"SHUT UP!" All the girls yelled at the guys, who's faces turned pale as they slowly walked to the side.
"AHEM!" A security guard came up to the gang with a serious look. Everyone sweat dropped as they slowly started to back away from the arcade. Once they were out they ran to the exit. "Nice going Hay Lin!" Caleb groaned as they finally stopped outside the mall.
"Well it's not my fault you guys are so cute! So school is tomorrow, are you gonna go on a date? OOH DOUBLE DATE WITH ME AND ERIC!" Hay Lin jumped up and down as she glomped Cornelia who only laughed.
Caleb's eyes widened as he took Cornelia out of Hay Lin's grasp, "I don't think so". Hay Lin fumed, "Party pooper". As the gang started to argue about how Hay Lin wouldn't shut up, Caleb stood in amusment. School was going to end in a few weeks, believe it or not. Who knows if next year would be different. If it was going to be different, he was never going to forget this. While Caleb was in his thoughts, Alex walked up next to him and sighed in comfort as he crossed his arms.
"What's going on Caleb?" Alex smiled at him. Caleb smiled back and put his hands in his pockets, "Nothin' really...I'm happy for you and Elyon. She seems perfect for a doofus like you", Caleb laughed as Alex laughed and then frowned once he got it. "Yeah well, I'm happier for you. You haven't been this happy since well...Amy. And I personally like Cornelia's hair shampoo. Amy's was horrible I swear", Alex said in disgust.
"So what, you're smelling everyone's hair now?" Caleb laughed to himself. "No. But heh, where is that witch with a b?" Alex asked. "I don't know. haven't heard from her in a while", Caleb shrugged, clearly distracted. "Well what I'm saying is that she was a good choice dude", Alex said. Caleb smiled as he glanced over to Cornelia, who was in total confusion and then laughed, "Yeah..she's perfect for me"
At night in the dorms...
Caleb paced the room in his sleeping pants and a black shirt as Cornelia stared at him in confusion. "If you keep this up, you're going to make a hole in the floor", Cornelia grinned as she rested her head on her pillow. "I'm just nervous about my parents. They're such...there's just no words for what they are", Caleb groaned as he collapsed on his bed. "Nah don't worry about it. It'll be fine. I'm still gonna love ya, silly", Cornelia smiled as she got under the covers.
"You better", Caleb chuckled as he got under the covers as well and looked at her looking at him. "Oh and by the way, Mr. Nolen said that mabye it was time that I thought about moving into another dorm with someone el-"
"No"
"He's gonna get really m-"
"Nope. Not letting you out of this room. Good night", Caleb turned off the lights and turned to his side.
"Hey! Well sometimes I get tired of you leaving all your dirty clothes on the floor. And you always leave the toilet lid up. Oh and let's not forget that you leave the fridge door open at times and it gets really cold and-"
"But that's why you love me. You know you want to stay here, so stop complaining, shut up, and go to sleep my angel" Caleb held back a laugh. "I hate you, Caleb!" Cornelia huffed and closed her eyes tightly in anger.
"Yeah. I love you too sweetie"
