More Than Friends // Sequel of Friends with Benefits.

Chapter Twenty-Four: That little Fucker was right!

One Week.

One week since Tate told me everything. One week since he's told me that he loves me. One week since I've truly realized that I was in love with him.

I guess you could say we were something now.

-------

Since I was feeling extra rebellious on a Tuesday morning me and Tate decided to skip school that day. When he came and picked me up from my house instead of driving to school we went to a dinner right outside of town. Tate ordered a big burger and I ordered pancakes. My dad would kill me if he found out about this but how much you wanna he did that exact same thing when he was kid.

"So what do want to do today?" Tate asked me.

"We can go that big tree you brought me to a little while back." I suggested.

"Sounds good to me" he said, agreeing with me. We finished our meals and headed to the big tree where Tate had first kissed me as we sat on the tree branch. After the short drive there we finally were there. I had to fight Tate from not climbing the tree knowing he wasn't completely healed. We ended up laying under the tree's shadow. I laid my head in his chest and played with his curls that had formed that day.

"What would you do if I shaved my head?" he asked.

"I would refuse to be seen with you and be pissed as fuck!" I explained.

"Okay I'm sorry. I promise I won't shave my head, but only if you promise to never cut or dye your hair either." he stated.

"But why? It's bleach blonde I didn't even get any of my mums brunette hair." I complained.

"No. It's beautiful don't ever change it." he said flipping my hair so it was over my face.

"Okay deal." I said blowing the hair out of my face, and laughing.

"Also your eyes and your smile are beautiful" he kept complimenting me.

"Tate I get it you're attracted to me." I laughed. He then took me cheeks in his hands and squished them, then he kissed me.

"God that'll never get old." he said laying his back down onto the grass and looking up at the sky as I giggled at him. Then suddenly something had popped into my head.

"He was right! That little fucker was right!" I sat up in shock.

"Who was right?" Tate asked me. I had no time to explain the whole thing to him.

"Get up. We have to go to Alex's house." I said standing up and grabbing him by the arm.

"I don't know what's going on but I think I'm just going to roll with it." he said as he followed me back to the car.

"Good choice." I said as we drove off. I had known Alex was going to be home because it's a fucking Tuesday and everyone hates Tuesdays. I knocked on the door hard.

"Alex isn't home right now leave a message at tone... beep" I could here his muffled voice say through the door.

"Alexander Irwin open the fucking door." I called out. I heard footsteps coming toward the door and then he opened it.

"Well look who it is. My dear friends Charlotte and Tate. How's it going princess?" he said leaning against the door frame. I narrowed my eyes at him.

"Tate why is she staring at me like that?" he said pointing to me and asking Tate.

"Beats me. One second we are laying under a tree then the next thing you know she's saying how you were right about something and demanded that we come here immediately." Tate explained.

"Well Charlotte would you like to explain why you're staring at me like you're trying to shoot lasers through my skull?" he asked.

"You were right." I said crossing my arms in front of my chest.

"Of course I was...wait what am I right about?" he asked.

"Tate and me you idiot." I rolled my eyes at him. It took him a second to figure out what I was talking about then I could see the look on his face when he realized what I was trying to tell him.

"I was right! I;m happy but also feel like building a fort and never coming out but it'll pass." he said.

"Can someone please explain to me what the hell is going on." Tate finally exclaimed.

"Okay listen up lover boy. The reason I broke up with Charlotte was because I saw the way you looked at her. I'm not blind and I also saw the way she looked at you too. So I realized that you were in love with her and she was in love with you before the two of you even realized it. So I was right." I high fived himself.

"Oh okay. You're smarter than you look Alex." Tate said.

"Thank you?" Alex questioned what I believe was a compliment.

"So would guys like to come in and watch me kick Charlotte's ass in Call of Duty?" alex challenged me.

"Oh it's on." I say walking inside with Tate.

-------

We played games throughout the day, of course I won against Alex in the game. I told my parents I came here after school and that I didn't know when I was going to be home. We played for hours, and watched movies and messed around. The next thing you know it's midnight and I'm tired as fuck. We were watching a movie on the couch we I felt my eyelids become heavy as I put my head on Tate's shoulder.

When I opened my eyes again I was looking up at a sky full a stars and I was movie. I realized that Tate was carrying me into my house. I guess I was asleep the whole ride home. He brought me into the house quietly with the spare key under the mat that he knew was there. He laid me in my bed and kissed my forehead.

"Night Charlie... I love you." he whispered and then walked out.

"Love you too Tate." I whispered to myself and then drifted into a sleep.
