Chapter 12:
"I don't ever wanna feel,
Like I did that day,
Take me to the place I love…"
"Hey, _. This is Kylie."
You are sitting on the couch in Cody's living room. It was a Sunday, and you were hanging out. The doorbell rings, so Cody gets up to answer the door. Now you were staring at a very pretty girl that you knew was Cody's friend. "Kylie? Like Kylie Jenner?" you ask.
She smiles at you, "Yeah, that's me!" She turns to Cody. "Well, I didn't know you had a friend over."
Cody sits down next to you. "Here's the thing. She isn't a friend, she's my girlfriend."
Kylie raises her eyebrows and looks at you, "Oh?"
You shyly nod. Something about this girl doesn't seem right.
Kylie flips her hair. "Well, I guess I'll leave then."
Cody stands up, "No, don't do that. Stay here and tell me why you're here. I'm not tryng to be rude, but you haven't showed up in a year."
Kylie frowns, "That's because you weren't here."
Cody shrugs and says, "Still, stay. _ doesn't even know you really so at least stay so she can. Come on, you're one of my best friends."
Kylie plops herself into the nearest chair and sighs, "Fine."
Cody sits back down and you lean closer to him. Your voice echoes through the room. "So why are you here?"
Kylie's eyes glare into you and you shrink down a bit. "Well, I was going to see Cody, but now you're here. He didn't even tell me."
Cody's eyes widen. "Kylie!"
She snaps back, "Well, it's true!"
Cody squeezes your hand and says, "The reason I didn't tell you is because we started going out last Wednesday!"
Kylie crosses her arms, "Okay. Well I have things to do. So bye."
Cody looks confused. "Alright. Bye I guess."
Kylie walks out the door and you turn to Cody. "What was that all about?"
Cody scratches his head, "I don't know. She's usually not like this to any of my friends."
You look at the floor. "It's me. You know, maybe I shouldn't be with you." You start to stand up.
Cody pulls you onto his lap and holds you to his chest, "_, don't ever say that! I need you in my life so don't you dare leave me."
You smile and put your arms around his neck, leaning your head against his shoulder. "I won't, Cody."
"Promise me," he says while brushing your hair out of your eyes.
You nod and say, "I promise."
