"Wait you have that lunch with your mum"
"Oh shit I do what time is it?"

"Crap I better get ready "
"I'll come too"
"Eh...and what are you going to wear ?" I giggled

"Hey dee!"
"Yea?"
"Can...can you get me some clothes while your out I'll pay you.."
"Don't worry Si I'll get you some"
"Thanks " I walked out and went to the restaurant I walked up to the man behind the booth
"Eh I'm looking for a Mrs.underwod"
"Right this way ma'am " I followed him and sat down across from my mum
"Hello sweetie"
"Hi mum"
"Where's your friend?"
"Si? Oh eh...he has to work ...yea work"
"Oh I see how was the party?"
"Yea it was great I dressed up and me and Si won first place then we sat back and danced and did shots" remembering the shots made me blush thinking of what Si did I was so lost in my thoughts
"Sweetie?"
"Huh oh sorry mum I was thinking "
"Something must have happened at that party to make you go red dear"
"What oh no nothing happened it was fun"
"You sure nothing happened ?"
"Yes mum"
"Alright alright well how is Simon ?"

"Your happy when your with him arnt you"
"Well of course I am he's my bestested best friend "
"Hmm...dear do you ever think of him more than a friend ?"
"...what...I mean ...no no ..we're best friends ...that's it ...I mean I've never thought of it"
"But has he ever thought of it?"
"I don't know why don't you ask him!"
"Dear ...*sigh* nevermind I was told you can figure it out on your own"
"Figure what out? Mum? Mum!" She stood up and walked out leaving the money on the table
What was she talking about? I sighed then remembered I had to get Si clothes I went to the clothes store and walked to the men's section I picked out a few t shirts that I thought would suit him and a couple pairs of jeans I got a pair of sneakers and went up and paid
"Is this for someone special miss?"
"Eh...yes yes it is"
"Boyfriend?"
"No no no "
"Ohhh husband"
"What no no! Can you just pack them up please" I walked out with the bag of clothes and thought about what he said
"Husband"
I'm 27 and I never even had a boyfriend I'm still a Virgin for Christ sakes but then an image came to my head
Me and Si marrying ....Eachother ...
Don't be ridiculous he dosnt like you in that way
But the tape...
That was a long time ago he just missed you that was it
But..
No buts what's your deal anyway?
I think I'm in love with him ...
Your his best friend it'd be too weird after all these years you could ruin your friendship then you'd be all alone again
......
He'd leave and never talk again he wouldn't even miss you
I guess...
I decided not to talk to myself anymore like a maniac so I walked home I walked in only to be greeted by a happy Si
"Hey ya pickle!"
"Pickle? What are you so happy about?" I giggled but he ran up to me and picked me up in a hug and spun me around I could only laugh
"What are you doing?" I laughed
"Hugging you I thought it was obvious " he said while putting me down
"Here I got you some clothes "
"Aw thanks how much do I owe you?"
"It's fine Si where did pickle come from?" I giggled
"I dunno but who cares I'm too happy to care!" He waved his arms in the air as he spoke making me laugh more
"I love your laugh you should laugh more" he smiled
"I love your smile you should smile more" I blushed and looked at the ground
"I Havnt stopped smiling once I'm around you"
I blushed more and went into the kitchen only to have si follow me and cover my eyes
"Guess who?"
"Tom cruise!" I teased
"Noooooo better than him"
"Hmmm Tyler Joseph !"
"Even better"
"Josh dun"
"Oh come on" he laughed
"Hmm oh there is one more person on that list"
"Yeahhhhh"
"Simon pegg!" He took his hands away and I turned around
"And where would he be on that list??" He stood on his toes towering over me
"Last" I sniggered
"Oi! Cheeky" he picked me up and put me on the counter
"Take it back"
"Never"
"I'll kiss you again"
"As if that's even a punishment anymore"
"So you admit you like it"
"Never said that" he smirked at me while I grinned innocently I didn't realise we were leaning in to Eachother our faces a centimetre away from eachothers when
"Click"
I smiled and pushed him away then jumped down
"Toasts down" I smiled and turned around to the toast I put it in a plate and sat down I quickly ate it and washed up I sat back down beside Si
"You should try on those clothes make sure they fit"
"Ok" he walked in the bathroom and after a while he came back out changed
"All ok ?"
"The red one didn't fit "
"I'll bring it back tomorrow"
"You don't have to do that *laughs* they'll think we're married "
I forced myself to laugh
"Are you ok? You seem a little ...on edge"
"No I'm fine"
"You sure?"
"Yeap!" I sprung up from my seat
"So what do you want to do today pickle ?" He smiled
"I don't mind "
"Don't day that you'll regret it afterwards" he grinned
"I'm serious I really don't mind "
"Ok then what about the beach?"
"Si...you know how I feel about the sea..."
"Who said anything about going in the sea we just go to the beach"
"... It's pointless arguing with you fine let's go" I laughed
"Great! I'll call Nick see if he wants to come"
"I'll call Maia"
//\time skip\//
Me,Maia,Nick,Sam and Si all decided to go to the beach we brought a boom box and a picnic we found a quiet spot and I put down the blanket I sat down and played the boom box it played cold water one of my fav songs I hummed along while the others wen into the sea I smiled at them when Sam ran back to me
"What's wrong?"
"What do you mean?"
"Why arnt you comin in?"
"Oh eh...I don't like the sea.."
"Oh ok " she ran back and I continued to watch them while singing along to the song I lay back and closed my eyes the sound of them laughing makes me smile ....
Glad to see they're having fun without you ..
Shut up ...
