The Confession Part 2

The next morning, Tobin was at the store getting herself more snacks. I was on the couch watching anime when Abby came into the room and plopped down next to me. "So, what were you and Tobs up to last night?" she asked. "Hang on." I said, pausing the show and pulling out my phone. "Lemme text her to see if she's cool with me telling you."

To: Nutmeg Queen: Hey, is it cool with you if I tell Abby about us?

From: Nutmeg Queen: Sure! She can tell the rest of them too. They deserve to know.

"She says I can tell you." I said. "And that you can tell the others. Tobin and I are now a thing." Abby grinned. "Finally!" she said. "What?" I asked. "Remember that one day in Portugal, when we rented that catamaran and went out on the water for a day?" Abby asked. "Yeah." I said. "Well, Pinoe noticed you and Tobs cuddling. I texted you a picture later. It was perfect. You were wearing her hoodie, she had her arm around you, and you were both laughing. Pinoe and I knew you had something, but we didn't lock you in a closet until you told us like we did with Carli and Hope, cuz we wanted you to come to this by yourselves. Oh, and thanks, by the way." "Why?" I asked. "Pinoe now owes me twenty bucks." Abby explained. "We were betting on whether or not you'd become a thing. I'm going to go tell her." "You go do that." I said. Abby laughed, getting up from the couch. My phone buzzed on the couch next to me.

From: Nutmeg Queen: How'd she react?

To: Nutmeg Queen: She took it really well. Turns out she and Pinoe were betting on whether or not we'd become a thing, so Pinoe now owes her $20.

From: Nutmeg Queen: Lol. Why am I not surprised? Well, I'm heading back now. See you soon.

To: Nutmeg Queen: Love ya, Tobs.

From: Nutmeg Queen: Love you too, Jedi.

A few minutes later, the door opened, and a pair of strong arms hugged me from behind. I turned around to see Tobin's warm brown eyes inches from mine. "I'm back!" She said. I laughed. "Yes. I see." I said. Tobin fake-pouted. "Is that all I get?" She asked. "Of course not!" I said, kissing her. "Oy, lovebirds, get a room." Abby said, coming into the room and flicking us both in the head, breaking our kiss. "I don't want any nieces or nephews until after you're married, either." I glared playfully at my sister. "Look, Abby!" I scolded. "Just cuz no one loves you doesn't mean you can go around breaking cute moments between other couples!" This remark earned me another flick to the head. Abby left the room, chuckling.
