Cora-
The next morning, I sat up in bed and looked over to see Chris still sound asleep. I went over to her bed and jumped on it. She groaned.
"Cora stop, my head hurts", she said.
"That's what you get for getting drunk", I said.
She sat up and brushed her hair out of her face. She squinted.
"Why is it so bright in here?", she asked.
"Maybe because its morning. We have to go to the gym and do your physical therapy on your arm", I said.
She covered her face with her pillow. I grabbed her feet and pulled her.
"No", she whined, but it was muffled by the pillow.
"Come on Chris", I said.
"Fine", she said, removing the pillow from her face.
She got up and got dressed. She dragged her feet to the front door and we went to the hotel gym. I noticed that she shook her hand.
"Whats wrong?", I asked.
"My arm is tingling", she said.
"Has it done that before?", I asked.
"Yeah, doctor said its normal", she said.
I nodded. Getting to the gym, I saw Colby working out.
"I change my mind, let's go", I said.
Chris grabbed my arm.
"Nope, let's go. I need to work out my arm", she mimicked.
I groaned. I got on the treadmill while she stretched a band. I could tell there were moments where she was in pain.
"Hey", I turned to see a sweaty Colby beside me.
"Hey", I replied.
"How is she doing?", he asked, looking at Chris.
"She didn't want to get up this morning", I said.
"She looks like she's in pain", he said.
"She is. Her arm sometimes doesn't feel like working", I said.
"Sucks", he replied.
I nodded. He leaned on the bars and smiled.
"So friend, how about we do something later?", he asked.
"You don't give up do you", I said, still running on the treadmill.
He shook his head no.
"Fine, how about pizza?", I asked.
"I like pizza. Just us or double?", he asked.
"This is not a date", I said quick.
He smirked.
"Yeah yeah", he said.
"Double", I said.
He nodded.
"I can't wait for our not date", he smirked.
"You can leave now", I said.
"You just want to watch me walk away so you could check me out", he said smirking.
"Oh brother", I rolled my eyes.
I stopped and got off the treadmill. He stood in front of me. I looked up at him.
"Excuse me", I said.
I tried to pass him, but he closed me in.
"A kiss to pass", he said.
I crossed my arms over my chest. He tapped his cheek.
"Come on sweetheart, just one tiny quick kiss", he bit his lip waiting.
"On your cheek", I said.
He nodded. He leaned down and I stood on my tippy toes. My lips brushed his warm cheek and then he turned quickly, our lips met. I didn't pull away. My back hitting the wall. He pulled away a little.
"Please tell me you felt that", he whispered.
I pushed him away and walked past him.
Colby-
She went into the bathroom. Her sister watched me.
"Hey", she sent me a nod.
"Did you see that?", I asked.
"Yup", she said.
"I just messed things up didn't I?", I asked.
"Yup", she replied.
She stood.
"My friend and I will be in the hotel lobby around five. If you two decide to meet us", I said.
"Okay", she nodded.
"You don't talk much do you?", I asked.
"Nope", she replied.
I went and sat in front of her.
"Care to share any wisdom on how to win your sister over?", I asked.
"Sarcasm and kiss her ass", she said.
"I'm not the ass kissing kinda guy", I said.
"Then you're out of luck", she said.
I glanced towards the bathroom. I looked back at her sister.
"How much ass kissing is required here?", I asked.
"More than you're probably use to kid", she said.
"So how's the arm?", I asked.
"What?", she asked.
I pointed at it.
"If you haven't noticed, when you drink you tend to talk more", I said.
"What else did I say?", she asked.
"You talked about some guy", I said.
"Oh", she looked away.
I wanted to ask if she was okay, but the look on her face only said that if I did ask she'd lie.
"Do you like wrestling?", I asked.
"We used to watch it, but we stopped", she said.
"I have a match soon. I invited Kat, maybe you two can come to it", I said.
"Sure, I'll talk to Kat", she said.
I nodded.
"If you're just looking for a good time, my sister is the wrong person for that", she said.
"I like her", I said.
"You don't know her", she said.
"That's the same thing Kat said", I smirked.
She stood.
"I'm gonna check on my sister", she said.
"Listen, okay, I know you don't know me and at dinner I made the first bad impression and I probably looked like a complete ass in front of your family, but there's something about your sister", I said.
She sighed.
"I can't promise anything", she said.
I nodded. She went towards the bathroom and walked in.
Cora-
I heard the bathroom door open.
"Colby, if that's you I will scream", I said from inside the stall.
"He's waiting outside", Chris said.
I walked out of the stall.
"You should talk to him", Chris said.
"No thanks", I said.
"Cora, you like him, don't be me. Don't close yourself off from something so amazing", she said.
"He's an ass", I said.
"But a cute ass", she smiled.
I chuckled.
"He wants to hang out as friends", I said.
"It won't hurt to try it out", she said.
"You're coming with me", I said.
"I'm not gonna be third wheel", she said.
"You're not, his friend from dinner is coming too", I said, getting ready to walk out.
"What?", she asked.
I nodded. Colby was sitting on a bench, he saw me and stood. I went over to him.
"If it helps, that was the best kiss I've ever had", he said.
"What time?", I asked.
He looked at me confused.
"To hang out. Unless you don't want to anymore", I said.
"Five", he said quickly.
He smiled. I nodded and walked out of the gym.
Colby-
I looked at her sister.
"See you at five", she said.
