About the Boy || Cody Bellinger

Thirty Three

Madeline's POV- August 2017

I closed the door and watched as Cody placed my duffle bag on the floor before turning to me.

"Make yourself comfortable"

He chuckled as I placed my hand on his arm to steady myself. Once my heels were off, I let out a happy sigh as I wiggled my toes against the carpeted floor.

"I could have carried you"

"This dress it too short to be carried in" I stated.

"Remind me again why you couldn't take them off"

I looked at him.

"Would you walk around barefoot?" I questioned.

He smiled as he shook his head.

"Why not wear comfortable shoes then?"

Because they're pretty and matched my outfit.

"Dinner was nice though"

Alex had planned out a nice evening with close friends. Cody's teammates were invited, and they all showed up. Some left early because they had plans with their significant others and others had plans with friends.

"Alex isn't mad you left, right?"

I shook my head.

"The night was over, and she wouldn't let me clean up. If it makes you feel any better, she gave me a wink and two thumbs up as we made our way out" I informed him.

"That does make me feel better"

He sat on the bed across from me and smiled.

"I was promised a face mask"

I stood up and reached for my duffle bag.

"Do you want a peel off mask?" I asked.

"I'll let you decide"

I set my bag on the bed next to him and took a good look at his face.

"You haven't shaved, so no peel off masks" I noted.

"Does it matter?"

I nodded.

"It will pull the hair" I answered.

He shook his head.

"No peel off masks"

"A nice clay mask should do the trick" I said.

I pulled out my anti stress clay mask.

"What color is it?"

"Blue" I replied as I squeezed a bit out of the tube and lightly touched his face.

"That's cold"

"Sorry about that" I told him.

I applied the mask on this cheeks and forehead.

"And we will use a grey clay on your chin and beard area"

He opened his eyes to look at me.

"Joc made me try that once"

I applied it on his chin and neck area.

"What about my nose?"

"That's where my charcoal peel off mask comes in" I said.

"Is it going to hurt?"

"It's like a nose strip" I told him.

"That's not to bad"
