Never Letting Go - Cody Simpson Fanfic

Chapter 20

"You ready?" Justin came into my dressing room. "Pretty sure." I gave myself one last look over in the mirror. "You look beautiful as always." He cheesed sarcastically. "You been taking lessons from Cody?" I walked past him. "He learnt from the best." "Oh boy." I rolled my eyes. "You know you believe me." "Who's the single one?" I teased. "Oh yeah, Cody told me to tell you he's breaking up with you. So I guess we're both single." "You're funny." I laughed.

"Sister's counting on you so you gotta put on a show." "I plan to." "Alli brought her a shirt with you on it and she's been strutting around back stage like she owns the place." Justin laughed. I laughed too at the idea. "She learnt from the best." I grinned. "Go get 'em!" Justin passed me my mic and pushed me towards the stage opening.

I walked on and introduced myself. "How's everyone doing tonight?" I asked. "Goood!" They said in unison. "You guys ready for Cody?" I laughed at the screams I got in response. "He's more than ready for you, London! Let's do this!" My backing track started and I got ready to put on a show.

"Lauren!" Lilly came running down the hall. "Hey!" I caught her as she jumped into my arms. "I watched you and Alli buyed me this shirt." "She brought you that shirt and how was it?" "It was really really good." "Thank you." "Shall we go watch Cody now?" "Yes." She nodded. "Let me go get dressed and then we'll go see Jake and Alli." I lead her to my dressing room.

We watched Cody's performance and then met him in his dressing room. "I liked the bit when you did the funny dancing." Lilly told Cody which made us both laugh a little. "You did?" "Yeah." "Good." "And I like your songs too." "Thank you." "I still think I should be your girlfriend, not her." Lilly pointed to me. "We'd be better, wouldn't we?" Cody agreed. "Excuse me?!" I raised an eye brow. "You heard us." Cody stuck his tongue out.

"We're on the bus tonight." "How long's the journey?" I asked. "Four to five hours." "What?!" "You'll be alseep." "Can we do a ustream?" "I like those." Lilly said. "I know you do." I smiled at her and then turned back to Cody. "Maybe." He smiled. "I gotta shower now." "Here?" "Uh.." He looked around. "Shall I just have one when we get back?" "Yeah." I nodded.

"Let's go then." Cody took my hand and picked Lilly up. "She has legs, Cody." I groaned. "Are you jealous?" He pouted at me. "No." "Yeah yeah." I rolled my eyes at his smug face. Lilly giggled at our squabbling. We all met up and went back to the hotel. "I'm gonna pack Lilly and then I'll come help you." I told Cody. "Don't you need to do your own?" "I did it before we left." "Okay, Mommy." He smiled and kissed my lips.

"Lil, put your pyjamas on for me." I got out some pyjamas. "But it's not bed time." "I know but you can wear them on the bus." "Fine." She lifted her shirt off her body and threw it at me. I laughed at her and packed her clothes. Once I was done with her I turned on the TV and left her watching it. "What are you wearing on the bus?" Cody came out of the bathroom with just his towel as usual.

"That." I pointed to a white tank and sweats which were on the bed. "What shall I wear?" "Something comfy. Come on, you don't need help with that." I laughed and started to change. "I hate packing." He changed as well. "But getting dressed isn't packing. I told you I'd help you." I put his case on the bed and got out his clothes.

"Lauren?" Jake came into the room. "Yes?" "Can you help me as well?" "What is it with you guys? Does Mommy have to help you with everything?" "Yes." They said at the same time. "Ask Alli." "Bu-" "I'm helping this baby." I tapped Cody's chest. "Fine." He groaned and left the room. I turned back around and started folding.

"Are you gonna help?" "Yeah." Cody stood behind me and helped me fold the clothes. "You don't have to stand right there." I pushed him with my butt. Cody dropped the shirt which he was holding and caught my waist. "I think I do." He said with his lips to my ear. "Stop playing games, we have to leave here in a half hour." "We can be quick." He held my butt against his lap.
