Chapter Six: Garrick

When we get home, we head upstairs.

"Okay, so we have to tell Brittney. What should we say?" I say as we slowly walk up the staircase.

"We can hold hands as we walk in there and say, 'Brittney, we're a couple now.'" He suggests. "Just be really blunt about it, straight to the point."

"Well there's no use in stalling." I agree.

And that's what we did. She was super happy for us and hugged us both.

"That was easy." Robin said, holding my hand as we walk into my room.

I sit in my chair and pull up skype.

"Okay so we'll call Azmo and Jeff and tell them." I plan.

When they answer, we talk normally.

"Wait, are you and Robin in the same room right now? I don't see him in the call but I can hear him." Jeff asks after a while.

Obviously, you silly Canadian.

"Yeah, we're in Garrick's room." Robin answers.

"What have you two been up to?" Azmo asked.

Robin and I exchanged a look that said "now?"

He gave a little nod and I said "Welllll... Robin and I have been getting pretty friendly... And-"

"You're finally together aren't you!" Jeff interrupted.

We both started laughing.

"Yes, Jeff we are." Robin says between giggles.

"It's about time, you guys." Azmo said. "You wouldn't shut up about eachother."

We look at eachother and smile.

Thank God. I don't feel as annoying now.

"So you guys were in the middle of this the whole time?" Robin asks.

"Yeah. You would talk to Azmo about Garrick and he would talk to me about you" Jeff answered him.

"You guys are good at keeping secrets, geez." I say.

We all kept talking until they had to leave.

Robin is lying on my bed and once I hung up the call, he jumped up and put his arms around me from behind my chair.

I rest my head on his arm and put my hands on his arms.

"Wanna cuddle?" Robin suggests with a smirk.

I thought you'd never ask.

I look up at him and nod.

He lies on my bed again, waiting for me to lie with him.

My stomach is going crazy again.

I stand up from the chair and wiggle in his arms.

My snuggly Bing.

I feel him rest his head on mine and take a deep breath. His breath stirs my hair and tickles my neck, giving me goosebumps.

I will never get used to this. I never want these feelings to stop.

"I'm really happy, Bree." He mumbles in my ear, his breath warm on the side of my face.

"Me too, Bing." I whisper back, feeling drowsy.

I feel him hug me tighter and I drift off into a deep sleep.
