Chapter 6:

"With you I can let my hair down,

I can say anything crazy,

And I know you'll catch me right before I hit the ground…"

Brad pulls the car up the driveway. You see lights on in the house and hear music. You step out of the car, smiling in awe at Cody's house. 'I can't believe I'm here!' you think and look at Brad, "Thanks for taking me, Brad!"

He nods, "it was no problem. I'm glad you could come. I know Cody is too."

You smile and start walking to the house. You are a few feet from the stairs when Cody opens the door, "_!" He runs over and hugs you, spinning you around. He puts you down and laughs, puts his hand behind his head, and blushes. "Haha. Sorry, I'm really happy you came."

Your eyes are wide with surprise, "Wow, looks like it. Your house is amazing, by the way. I'm just so happy to be here! You look great!"

Cody blushes and replies, "You look amazing, _. Thanks for coming."

Now you are blushing, "Can we go inside?"

Cody glances at the door, his dad had already gone inside. "Yeah." He walks to it and pens it, saying. "After you."

You smile and walk into the house, looking around in mazement. "Wow, Cody, this is so cool!" His house was pretty dang big. You saw Alli walk across the hall and shout, "Alli!"

She turns and looks at you with a puzzled look on her face. "Um…hey?"

Cody puts his arm around your shoulders and says, "Alli, this is _. You know, the girl from the plane."

Alli giggles and replies, "Oh, that one! I know all about you! You've got a pretty one, Cody."

Cody smiles and takes you to the kitchen to meet his mom. While you are walking, you pass the living room where Alli and Tom were playing tennis on their Wii. You laugh, "It looks like Alli and Tom are having a good time."

"Yeah, looks like it," Cody nods. When you got to the kitchen, you see Cody's mom, Angie. "Mom, this is _."

"Hi, _," Angie smiles at you.

"Hi, Mrs. Simpson!" You grin because you are talking to Cody's mom. How much better can life get?

"You can call me Angie."

"Alright, thanks."

Cody looks at his mom, "Mom, _ and I are gonna go hang out. See ya."

Cody takes your arm and pulls you out of the room and outside. You look at him and say, "I love your mom."

Cody laughs, "I love her too. Wanna go for a walk?"

"I thought we are supposed to be partying?" you giggle.

"Well, yeah, but it doesn't matter if we aren't here for a few minutes…" He smiled that adorable smile and you just can't resist it.

"Alright, but if we get in trouble I'm blaming you."

Cody takes your hand in his and casually starts walking. You look down at your hand intertwined with his and feel your face heat up. You just can't believe Cody Simpson is holding your hand! He seems like the nicest guy in the world!
