me and chris sat and stared at each other for a while, not saying a word because we both know where this was going to go. fuck it, i finally decide.

"i like you, you know i like you, i know i like you, our friends know it, anyone who could take one look at us would know it. im not gonna make this like a sappy thing cause you know i hate that shit so there you go. can i go now? im gonna go." i say all at once, getting up to leave afraid of what his reply would be. he had a smug smirk on his face the entire time i was talking, and i hated it because i cracked first. before i could go anywhere, he grabs my wrist and turns me around.

"i hate that sappy shit too. so lets get straight to the point." he says before pulling me in for a kiss. honestly? he took me by surprise. i wasnt expecting him to full on kiss me, i was literally fine with what i said, but you know, this works too. i smile into the kiss and wrap my arms around his neck.

once we pull away, i keep my eyes shut for a moment, processing what just happened. i slowly open them and sigh slowly.
"okay then—" i say through a laugh, still processing.
"you have no idea how long ive wanted to do that for." he admits. my heart speeds up a little.
"its a good thing you did do that cause i think were heading back to la tomorrow." i frown, remembering. his face falls a little.
"what? but you just got here!" he says.
"welllll.. you did kinda take a long time to call me and i thought you werent going to so me and liv already booked the flights back." my frown deepens, as does chris's. and then his eyebrows raise up, thinking of an idea.

"we'll go with you!" he exclaims, getting excited.

"what?" i ask, to make sure im hearing things right.

"me, matt and nick will go with you, back to la." he repeats, more clear.

"are you kidding?" i question the smile on his face.

"no. we were gonna come back in a couple weeks anyways, you showing up was unexpected.. but if we go now we can stay for a bit." he explains.

"but.. mary lou? does she know?" i ask him, because mary lou doesnt deserve the scare she would get if she found her sons had disappeared without warning. he laughs. why is he laughing.

"you're cute when you're worried about me." he says, effortlessly. my cheeks heat up a little bit.

"im not worried about you, im worried that youre going to leave unannounced." i say, smiling and tilting my head.
