The Kissing Booth Why Now?

108. NEW NEIGHBORS

Everyone looked at him as he gulped and looked around "nope so not going there.  She finally stopped pranking me no way in hell am I going to have her prank me because..."  Patrice slams her hand over his mouth.  "Babe you just almost spilled the beans."  I started laughing my butt off as Lois spoke up "good one cuz."  I smirk "you are so lucky that Patrice stopped you."  "No kidding."  Everyone started laughing and Noah shook his head "I am glad she stopped you, bro.  I do not want my girl to be busy pranking you all break instead of spending time with me."  I snuggled closer to Noah "you know I could always prank you."  "You already are."  "Whatever do you mean?"  "This damn dress."  I threw my head back laughing "well maybe you will think twice about threatening me about sleeping alone while you are here."  

He groaned as everyone was laughing and my dad so had to go there "I don't mind and I am pretty sure Mathew is right there with me."  Mathew speaks up "yep, I am ok with our girl sleeping alone in her OWN bed."  Noah glared at them "you two are not funny.  My fiancee belongs with me in our bed."  I chuckled "you are the one that opened up that can of worms."  My dad chuckles as he opens the door and we all climb out and head into the diner.  We soon hear Martha "what is so funny you all?"  Lee snorts "Noah is not happy about Shell's dress and the fact she woke us all up this morning with a damn air horn.  Causing him to threaten her with sleeping all alone because she wouldn't tell us who did it till I busted her."  I giggle "plus I took off running and locked myself in my room because they were all after me."  She just shook her head "well if they are smart none of them will go up against you."

I hear a snort "no kidding I have seen her handy work."  I look and there is Officer Dawson.  I smile and walk up to him giving him a hug "Hi there Officer Dawson."  "Elle I thought we talked about you calling me Charlie."  I grin "yep, but you agreed while you are in uniform..."  "Oh, yeah you will still call me Officer Dawson out of respect."  I nod my head "yep."  He chuckles and looks at me shakes his head "I take it this is part of your punishment on Flynn for threatening to make you sleep alone."  I nod my head "well, sweetie I agree with him.  You don't need to be sleeping with him.  You should be alone in your own bed till the day you say I do and even then..."  Lee snorts "that is what our dad's said well except the part about after they get married."  My dad chuckles "I have to agree with you on that one Chuck."  Mathew nods his head "yep, maybe we three can make that happen."  I look at the three of them as my mom, June and Lilly smack them upside the head.  The three of them yelp "hey what was that for."  As if they rehearsed it the three of them said together "leave them alone or you else."

Everyone was dying just as Becs walked in with Coach and her mom and we ended up relaying the story to them.  Coach looked at the three men and shook his head "I could have told you three to zip it.  No way am I setting myself up for my wife to smack me one.  Plus Chuck I would have thought you would really keep your mouth shut with your mom right there."  He looks at Martha and she is smiling and smacking a wooden spoon in her hand.  Officer Dawson's eyes bug out "sorry guys you two are on your own."  That made us all lose it and I nearly hit the floor.  When I finally was able to control myself I noticed that the table we were going to be sitting at was huge and had four extra seats.  I looked at the rents "what's with the four extra seats?"  It was at that time the Coveys walked in and my mom pointed.   I grinned "hey LJ, Margot, Kitty, and Dr. Covey welcome to my third home away from home."  LJ did a double-take "how many homes away from home do you have?"  I look at Lee "well there is Lee's which is my first home away from home, then the arcade, here, and the Lee's."  I smile as everyone laughs.  Noah shakes his head "you do realize babe two of those places are restaurants."  I grin "yep, and don't forget the food at the arcade?"

LJ shakes her head "You are not embarrassed that your fiancee knows how much you love food?"  Noah chuckles "nope my girl here loves her food and I will not come between her or her food if I want to live."  Everyone lost it and I looked at Martha "I want the Lumber Jack Special, eggs over medium, the toast, and french toast.  To drink may I have OJ and chocolate milk."  She grinned and nodded then went around the table taking everyone's order.  After they were done Margot looked at me "Uhm, Elle you realize the lumberjack special has two eggs, four strips of bacon, two slices of ham, two sausage patties, two slices of french toast, and then two slices of toast?"  "Yep, don't you remember how much I ate at the Lee's?"  She shook her head "no, I wasn't paying attention I was too busy."  I looked at her since she blushed and cuddled into Noah.  She saw me and gasped "Oh, no I wasn't checking anyone out at our table.  Believe me, I would not go after a guy that is taken especially one that is married or engaged."  "Then why?"
