Hope you enjoy.
It was 20 minutes after her realisation that Clarissa heard the snapping of fingers in front of her.
"Oh. Uh, I guess I just daydreamed." Clarissa said, shaking her head.
"That's cool. I do it all of the time. Jason always says that I'm daydreaming about a girl, but it's usually just something stupid like chocolate or whether or not I even want to be in the same room as Emma when she is talking about Galaxy Wars with Jason and dad. What were you dreaming about?" Tyler asked.
"I-I don't really know." Clarissa replied. Tyler smiled and then he got up and put the mugs in the sink, getting a soda from the fridge.
"Want a soda?" Tyler asked.
"Have any diet?" Clarissa asked as she got up and walked over to him. Tyler turned around just as she reached him and he handed her the bottle, closing the fridge and going over to the bench and opening his soda.
"Hey Tyler, did you really mean what you said earlier about me being one of the hottest girls at school?" Clarissa asked. Tyler looked down and Clarissa saw his face and ears turn bright red.
"Hey look. It's a show about how to cook the perfect churro." Tyler said when he looked at the TV, but as he turned around, he and Clarissa smacked heads and they both stumbled back.
"Oh my god. Are you alright?" Tyler asked when he had gotten over the shock.
"Yeah. It doesn't hurt. I don't think our heads actually hit that hard." Clarissa replied. Tyler nodded and then he took a sip of his soda. He soon glanced at Clarissa to see she was doing the same. Before they knew what was really going on, their lips were pressed together and their arms were around the other, the two pulling each other closer.
"I, um, guess you're over Roy." Tyler said as they pulled away.
"Yeah. I guess." Clarissa said. She then leant up slightly and pressed her lips to his again, amazed by how soft his lips were and by the sparks and fireworks that went off in her head. Little did she know Tyler felt the exact same as her.
2 hours later, Freddie, Emma, Sam, Ashton, Jason and Gibby's son Quincy walked into the house.
"Tyler! Dinner." Sam called upstairs as Freddie put the pizza he had bought on the way home on the table and everyone sat down. Tyler then came downstairs closely followed by Clarissa.
"Clarissa? What are you doing here? I thought you were going home after your date with Roy." Ashton said as Clarissa and Tyler sat down with everyone else, Sam having pulled extra chairs up for Jason and Quincy to sit on. Sam and Freddie were sitting on the side furthest from the kitchen and Tyler and Clarissa were across from them. The twins were on the ends and Quincy was seated next to Emma, Jason next to Ashton.
"Roy is a big fat jerk. I walked in on him and Lisa making out and they continued after they saw me. I said to Roy that we're over, he said he didn't care so I came over." Clarissa replied, grabbing a piece of pizza.
"Aren't you a little bit upset?" Ashton asked.
"I was at first, but then I realised that there are better looking guys at the school and I was fine." Clarissa said and Tyler rolled his eyes, a small smile on his face.
"Oh yeah. Mum, there was this thing about churro's while you were away and I recorded it for you. Well, most of it. You miss the first 12 minutes though." Tyler said.
"Don't worry. It's still churro's. Just eat your dinner before I do." Sam said and Tyler quickly began to eat. Freddie then got up to get the drinks and as he was coming back, he saw something weird. Tyler and Clarissa were playing footsies. Smiling, he put the drinks down in front of them and then leant down to whisper into Tyler's ear.
"If you don't want people to see what you're doing with your foot, stop it." Freddie whispered and then he patted his son on the shoulder as he went bright red.
"What did you just say to him? He's as bright as a tomato." Emma said.
"Nothing you need to know." Tyler snapped and Freddie grinned, handing everyone else their drinks before sitting back in his seat and eating his pizza.
"Quincy, Clarissa, are you two staying here tonight?" Sam asked after dinner as they were all packing up.
"Well, my dad is doing something to do with the cat. I didn't ask details. He said it was cool if I crashed here as long as it's okay with you." Quincy replied.
"No worries. Who knows what that strange Gibby does with that cat." Sam said and Freddie chuckled.
"What about you Clarissa?" Freddie asked and she could see the massive grin on his face.
"Uh, why not? My mum wanted to come and watch Tyler's hockey game. Or dad does and mum is just tagging along because she knows that'll you'll be there." Clarissa said.
"Hockey is after basketball at 1. And since we're a player down it'll be tight." Tyler said.
"Weren't you doing football at one point?" Clarissa asked.
"Yeah, but then Roy joined and I already hated his guts. He tried to punch me in the face just because I told him to back off of Ashton. She kept saying no, but he followed her around like a lost puppy. So when he tried to punch me I ducked and then smacked him over the head with the butter sock." Tyler said.
"Good thinking." Freddie said and Sam smiled.
"See? They do come in handy baby." Sam said to him and he just gave her a look. She smiled innocently and then kissed him.
"Okay. I'm going to go and shoot hoops. Jason, come on." Tyler said as he picked up his basketball. Jason sighed as he got off of the couch and went outside with his little brother.
After a while of playing basketball, Jason went inside and Clarissa came outside.
"You want to play?" Tyler asked her.
"I don't even know how." Clarissa laughed.
"That's cool. I'll show you. Come here." Tyler said. Clarissa then walked over to him and Tyler stood behind her, telling her where to put her hands on the ball and putting his hands over hers on the ball, the two throwing it up and it went straight into the ring.
"Awesome. I got a goal or whatever it's called." Clarissa cheered as Tyler went to go grab the ball. Tyler smiled and then bounced the ball at her.
"You and Ash cheering on the game?" Tyler asked.
"Of course. Lisa is going to be 'accidently' punched in the face as we cheer." Clarissa said.
"You have been hanging around Emma way too much." Tyler laughed as Clarissa threw the ball back at him. He then suddenly laughed again and Clarissa raised an eyebrow.
"What's so funny?" She asked.
"Ashton and Emma are watching us." Tyler said. He then looked up to his sisters' bedroom window and smiled, waved and then blew a kiss at them. He then threw the ball backwards and it went into the hoop and he grinned up at the window.
"Show off." Emma called out once she had opened the window.
"And what's wrong with that?" Tyler asked with his wide grin and then he turned and went and got his ball.
"Come on. Let's go inside." Tyler said to Clarissa.
"Well, it is cold. Man, I can't believe that there's only 4 weeks before Christmas." Clarissa said as they walked inside.
"I know. How fast as this semester gone? Six more months and Jason is leaving for college." Tyler said.
"Hey. He'll still be visiting all of the time. And anyway, he might not even be leaving Seattle." Clarissa said.
"Yeah I know. But hey, he's still a nerd either way so, you know." Tyler said and the two laughed, Tyler and Clarissa both going upstairs but Clarissa to the twins room and Tyler to his.
"Hey Tyler, I need to ask you something." Jason said as he walked into his little brothers room a minute later, closing the door behind him and going and sitting on the bed next to Tyler.
"What's up?" Tyler asked.
"You haven't told anyone that I'm going to college here yet have you?" Jason whispered.
"Nope. Don't worry. It's going to be the biggest surprise for them and mum will probably cry." Tyler laughed.
"Yeah. Also, what's going on between you and Clarissa? And don't say nothing. I saw the look you shared at dinner after dad whispered whatever it was into your ear and you were bright red." Jason said.
"Swear on your life that you won't tell a soul?" Tyler asked.
"Cross my heart and hope to stab a pin in my eye." Jason said.
"Okay. So, Clarissa came here all upset about 3 minutes after you guys left and so I made her a hot chocolate. After she had calmed down and was over Roy, she kept staring at me and then she sort of went into another planet. After she came back to earth, I got her a soda and after we smashed heads by accident, we, um, kissed." Tyler said.
"Awe. Little Tyler is growing up." Jason said.
"Shut up." Tyler laughed, throwing his pillow at him.
"So…. How was it?" Jason asked after a few seconds.
"Well, do you know how whenever mum and dad said that whenever they kiss they feel sparks and fireworks going off everywhere and we just said they were crazy? Well, I think I understand what they mean now." Tyler said and Jason beamed.
"I told you it felt nice. Even Kayla was saying it was weird you didn't know." Jason said.
"Why were you and Kayla talking about me?" Tyler asked.
"I tell her everything. Well, almost everything." Jason said and Tyler smiled.
"I feel special. I'm the only one that knows." Tyler said. Jason rolled his eyes and then grabbed the pillow, whacking Tyler across the head with it.
"What was that for?" Tyler asked.
"For not asking her out sooner you idiot." Jason laughed and then he left the room after ditching Tyler's pillow at him.
This was going to be the longest six months of Tyler's life.
