"We're so happy for you Danni," Sam exclaimed, my cheeks hurt from smiling.

"I can't wait to hear it," Tara added, I chuckled as I blushed.

"We have to throw a party to celebrate!" Jake shouted, giving most of us a fright from his sudden outburst.

"That's an amazing idea," Sam added and seemed to make eyes at Colby as if to signal something to him. My eyebrows furrowed as I tried to decipher what they were thinking.

"What's that?" Kat asked pulling me from my train of thought. She pointed to my neck, I placed my hand on it confused as to what it might be but when I didn't feel anything on it my eyes suddenly widened. I quickly looked at Colby as he hid his mouth with his hands trying to hide his chuckle. I smirked as I shook my head.

"Ask Colby, he did it," I shrugged, smirking at Colby as everyone looked at him. He turned red knowing he had been caught. I laughed as I shook my head making my way to a mirror so I could see the hickey he had left me earlier. I figured he had given me one but I didn't think to check. I laughed and shook my head. I went back to the others.

We all sat on the couch. They insisted on planning the party to celebrate for me, much to my discretion. I didn't want a big fuss made, I'd already told them I didn't need to tell the world. Colby was sat to my left, he had his leg pressed to the side of mine the whole time. I chuckled and joked with them as they planned. Our attention was interrupted by Corey and Devyn walked in. We all sat back to talk to them. Colby stayed sitting forward but turned his shoulders to face them. He draped his arm over my leg. I smiled at the small gesture that I love but he doesn't see it as being cute, he's just being natural. Devyn and Corey quickly got involved in planning the party. I sat back enjoying the company. They were planning it for this weekend since Sam and Colby are going away on Monday. Colby sat back a little, his hand accidentally trailing up my thigh. He moved it but smirked as he glanced at me, seeing my blushing cheeks and smile before putting his hand back where it was. He knows exactly what he's doing. I gulped slightly, hoping my cheeks would stop shining red soon. I avoided eye contact with everyone, deciding to look out the glass doors instead. I don't want them to know how much Colby makes me blush with one small motion.

After a while of sitting, planning and laughing we ended up splitting. Everyone seemed to go off in their pairs, I began heading for the door already excited to call my niece and tell her. She's my best friend and not being able to talk to her this long feels insane to me. We used to see each other every day and now I haven't even called her.

"What are we doing?" Colby asked with a grin and he hurried to walk beside me. I mentally froze for a second. He mustn't have anyone to hang out with. Colby looked at me expectantly clearly noticing my hesitation to answer. I winced.

"I figured I would call my niece, I didn't get to speak to her yesterday and it will start getting late there soon," I explained sadly as I slowed down so we never made it to the door.

"Oh," Colby said, he tried sounding casual but he was clearly a little disappointed. "No worries, Erm." He cleared his throat. "I should start packing for Monday anyway," He explained, his smile forced but he wasn't upset. He just wanted to hang out with me. I smiled brightly.

"Well, I assume you have my number now, if you text me I'll have your number too so I can let you know when I'm free. I'd love to spend time with you again," I explained, blushing slightly. Colby's lips spread to a wide smile. He nodded slightly.

"I'd love that too," He explained, his eyes searching mine. I chuckled as I shook my head, he's so easily adorable.

"Good, but no hickeys this time, It may look and feel amazing but we need to behave," I joked with a smirk. Colby chuckled as he nodded. He licked his lips, pulling his bottom lip between his teeth.

"I'll try," His words, his voice, his lust-filled eyes, all of them and I mean all of them were enough to make me consider cancelling all my plans and locking us in a house together for a week. A week of pure and amazing bliss.
