By Your Side

Chapter 4: I Like You

*Jennifer's POV*

Here we go. I'm gunna tell Lana how I feel. I got this. Right now I'm standing outside of Lana's apartment that every cast member has. I then hear footsteps and I turn around and see Josh standing there.

"Oh hey Josh what are you doing here?" I ask rubbing the back of my neck.

"I live right there." He says pointing to the door next to Lana's.

"Oh yea! Haha." I laugh nervously.

"Yea okay, what are you doing here?" He asks.

"Oh I was just coming to talk to uh Lana." I said.

"Hmm about what might I ask?" He says.

"Oh uh just stuff." I said and Josh laughed crossing his arms.

"Oh okay then. I'll let you get back to it." He said and walked into his apartment.

I sigh and knock on Lana's door lightly. I hoped that she wouldn't answer but she did.

"Oh, hi Jen." Lana said giving me a warm smile that always makes my knees go week.

"Hey Lana." I said.

We just stood there awkwardly for about a minute.

"So do you wanna I don't know go get some coffee? I mean if your not busy at the moment." I said trying to hold my blush.

"Oh yea sure just let me grab my purse!" She said and walked in the house.

I turn around and see Ginny, Josh, Jared, Taylor, and Bex all standing there.

"Yes?" I ask.

"You like Lana!" Taylor squeals.

"No!" I snap crossing my arms.

"The blush on your cheeks says otherwise." Bex said and I blushed even more.

"Okay yes I do like her! But don't say a word." I growl.

"Yea yea okay go get'em tiger." Jared said and I rolled me eyes.

Then Lana walked out and raised her eyebrow.

"Hey guys?" She said.

"Oh hey Lana!" Ginny said grinning like an idiot.

"What's got you all so cheery?" Lana asks.

"Uhhhh DISPERSE!" Bex yells and everyone runs into their apartments except me and Lana.

"Uh that was weird." Lana said as we walked down the hall.

"Yea their total weirdos!" I said chuckling.

"I HEARD THAT!" I hear Jared yell from outside his door.

Lana giggles as we go down the elevator. Once we get out we walked to Starbucks and ordered our coffee.

"So what did you want to talk to me about?" Lana asked taking a sip of her drink.

"Um I wanted to tell you that...... I uh kinda like ......uh you?" I said questionably.

Lana spit some of her coffee out and looked at me wide eyed.

"You what?" She asked.

"I kinda like you? I mean kinda like more then uh friends." I stutter.

"Oh I never knew you felt this way." Lana said smiling at me.

"Yea I kinda have for a while now." I mutter.

"Well that's great!" Lana said and I looked at her.

"How so?" I ask.

"I like you too." She says and my mouth drops.

"Really?" I breath out.

"Really." She says and grabs my hand.
