I stared down at my outfit, and may I say l look good. I wore a pair of black jeans matched with a supreme pink top and just to be sentimental I found one of Cody's off white jackets he left in my house. I also finished up the whole outfit with a pair of converse and my hair in a bun.

I went downstairs to find my parents still chatting away. I looked over at the kitchen clock and it was ten minutes till two. Still got time.

I chatter down on my nails, pacing back and forth in the dining area. Did Cody mean this as a date? Or a friendly hangout? Oh my god what if he means this as a date! Do I like him? God this is so confusing. Boys should be more specific when they take girls out. Although I doubt this is a date, he could have any girl in the school so why would he choose me. After all I'm just his best friend.

Okay deep breath Bails, stop overthinking and enjoy.

"Bailey darling," my mom called from the living room. I looked up to find her and my father smiling at snickering about how distressed I was about Cody taking me out. "If you're so worried then why don't you pick Max from Nikki's house?"

"Yeah sure." I mumble heading out the front door. How can my parents easily notice when I'm distressed, I swear they're fortune tellers or something.

Nikki's house was just next door so I really didn't need to walk far away to pick Max up. Plus it's an advantage having her house next to mine, I can get Max out just in time for my date.

No I mean friendly hangout.

The Foreshaws have lived here ever since we moved in. They were a nice family but I never really got to know them. Wanting to get this over with, I knock gently enough on the door.

No response.

I knock again.

No response.

I was about to knock a third time when I heard a lady's voice shout 'I'm coming'.

The door swung open and I was about to greet Mrs Foreshaw when I looked up and saw it wasn't Mrs Foreshaw. She had brown-ish black hair and wandering grey eyes. Grey eyes. Realisation hit me like a wind.

"Miss Davis." I said looking her straight in the eye. "What are you doing here?"

"Bailey," She smiled offering her hand to me and totally ignoring my question. "Nice to see you again. You're all grown up."

"Where's Mrs Foreshaw?" I asked glancing at her side trying to peer Into the house.

"You're looking at her."

"Mom?" A voice came behind me. "What are you doing here?"

Shit.

It's Cody.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

After Cody and I dropped Max at my house, I made my way to his car and fastened my seatbelt so fast it could be a world record. I could tell Cody was mad. His mother got engaged to a man Cody didn't know and she's possibly having an affair.

Cody slid into the drivers seat next to me and he slammed the door which told me he's not mad. He's pissed. He pulled out of my drive way and onto the main road taking us to our destination.

Half of the ride we didn't speak. I guess he needs time to process it all. If it were me I'd be completely mad if I had diabetes and my mom went around having an affair with a married man. I feel so bad for him and I don't even know what to do to help him.

I looked out the window for most of the drive. It was starting to get foggy and dark. If it rains we're screwed.

For no apparent reason I take Cody's free hand and intertwine it with mine. I look and him and he looks angry. His brows creasing and him biting down on his lip so hard I thought he'd bleed. I squeezed his hand a little. He looked down to where our hands were joined and he sighed.

"I'm Sorry." He said taking quick glance at me.

I shook my head. "No, you have the right to be mad."

"Yeah but not at you. You didn't do anything."

"I picked up Max?" I shrug. "Which led to you seeing your mom in the Foreshaws house."

All of a sudden he let out a low chuckle and squeezed my hand reassuringly. "Hey if my mom does get married to this Foreshaw dude then we'll live next to each other." He smiled flashing me a pair of pearly white teeth.

"Huh. I guess you're right." I said dumbfounded.

♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

"Okay you can take your blind fold off." Cody called. I could make out his voice was in front me somewhere.

I took no hesitation to rip the blind fold off. And can I just say I couldn't believe my eyes.

He took us to our child hood lake.

I stared around me, remembering the last time I had been here was my 14th birthday. It was beautiful. The water was a beautiful blue but looked purple because of the heavy clouds. There were beautiful green leaves floating about in the water as if they were strategically placed. And just at the bank of the lake was Cody.

He leaned against a canoe smirking. There was a blanket in the canoe and two mugs of what looked like chocolate milk and a tiny glass jar in between the mugs that had a four leaf clover hanging out the jar. There was also a bag that sat in the middle of the canoe which I'm guessing contained something else but for now I can't wait to get in the make shift boat.

I ran down the bank and embraced Cody in a hug. I snaked my arms round his neck while he hugged me back placing his arms round my waist.

"Thank you so much Cody." I smile embracing him tighter.

"I'm glad you like it."

I pulled away from his shaking my head. "I don't like it."

"Oh." He says dropping his hands from my waist.

"No Cody." I laugh. "I don't like it, I love it."

"Phew you got me worried for a second there."

"You're very gullible, you know that?"

"That doesn't count Bailey." He smirks kissing my cheek.

"Well what are we waiting for?" I say pointing to the canoe that rocked peacefully against the water.

"Last one there is a rotten egg." Cody calls speeding towards the water.

I don't think I've ever laughed so hard in my life.
