chapter 3

it was a week in july, the week of caleb's birthday. this time he was overwhelmed with joy, since this time he'd be spending it sydney and luke.

he studied himself in the mirror of his bedroom. he wore a forest green t-shirt, and cargo shorts.

he ran his fingers through his hair - making sure that he was satisfied with its look.

his phone buzzed, he grinned and quickly picked it up - figuring that it was sydney.

💬 syd 💜
guess whose almost at la? ;)

caleb opened messages, and replied back.

idk, maybe my wonderful best friend :)) so excited to see u!

he turned his phone off, and slid it in his pocket.

jules and hayley burst through his bedroom door, with ms katie standing behind them.

"it's time to go!" they both shouted at the same time - they all laughed.

"let's roll," caleb said, following them all out of his room.

"would you like to explain what we're doing?"
ms katie asked - handing caleb the camera.

"yes." he said - holding the camera.

"so, we're going to go pick up sydney and luke from the airport." he narrated - as all four of them left the apartment, and made their way to the parking garage.

"i'm so excited!" jules said - jumping in excitement.

"it's gonna be amading!" hayley shouted - doing a little spin.

"amading." caleb said.

•

they all anxiously waited for the herz' to arrive. hayley and jules were playing some handshake game, and were trying to teach caleb. he was so excited to see them.

"and then you go, one, two, three," jules said - demonstrating with hayley.

"and then, boom!" hayley said - as they did the last part of the handshake.

caleb nodded, "yeah that seems very confusing."

"it's not, i promise." jules said.

"it's super easy," hayley reassured him.

then, caleb saw his two sisters facial expressions change like a snap of a finger. caleb looked back to sydney, luke, and ms paula.

they were sort of far away - trying to look for the leblancs. caleb and his sisters waved, trying to get their attention.

"over here!" jules shouted.

"syd! luke! ms paula!" hayley yelled - trying to get their attention.

finally, they noticed them. caleb locked eyes with syd, and smiled at luke. he got up as fast as he could - sisters and mom following him.

luke ran up quick enough, and hugged caleb.

"miss you dude," he said - as they both pulled away.

"i missed you too!" caleb said, "it's been so long,"

soon enough ms paula and sydney got closer - carrying lots of bags with them.

jules was already over there hugging sydney, and so was hay. caleb ran over, with luke next to him.

sydney's face light up when she saw the boy. she put her arms out, and he pulled her in close and gave her a big hug. her face was buried into his shirt.

they hugged for a long moment, then pulled away. she looked up at him, "missed you, leblanc,"

"missed you more herz," caleb laughed - smirking at her.

the group greeted each other, and began to talk, laugh and tell stories. the vlog camera catching it all. making more memories.

"hey syd?" caleb said, not knowing how this conversation would go, "i like you."

even if she didn't like him back, caleb was happy that he'd admitted it to himself. he would wait for her.

"oh," sydney said - surprised, as her suitcase rolled behind her.

"it's okay if you don't feel the same. i totally understand." caleb replied, "i just think that you're so amazing, and-"

caleb was interrupted by sydney's lips pressed against his. caleb kissed her back, feeling pure bliss. he had never loved any girl as much as he loved sydney herz.

she pulled away, and looked at him, "i like you too, caleb."

AHHHHH

it's finally happening!! <33
