Chapter 27
Once me and Aaron returned back we went our separate ways to get ready to go swimming. The plan was: swim, get hammered, get laid - according to Corry. God knows who he was referring to.
Me and Aaron also decided that we wouldn't tell anyone yet, not even Brooke or Jason. He made it clear that he wanted to see how it went before more people got involved. He also hinted that sneaking around would be a lot more fun as long as we didn't get caught. Maybe staying next door to him was handy after all.
I trudged up the stairs to the room me and Brooke were sleeping in and pushed the door open. She was lying on the double bed on her front and smiling happily at her phone.
"Oh, hay." she said startled, sitting up as if she had been caught snatching money from her mum's purse. "I didn't see you come in."
"What are you so absorbed in to not notice, Happy?" I teased and sat down on the edge of the bed next to her.
"Oh nothing." she stared at her phone again, a smile creeping onto her face.
"Liar. Who's put that smile on your face?" she didn't answer so I snatched her phone from her hands and she didn't see it coming. The screen said ' one new message: Corry x.' I raised my eyebrows and looked at the guilty expression on her face. "Corry, eh?"
She snatched her phone back. "We're just talking."
"And you like him?" the look on her face told me the answer to that question anyway. "Oh. Brooke and Corry sitting in a tree, k-I-S-" I started to sing in a childish voice but she cut me off.
"I will brutally murder you in your sleep."
"Okay, okay." drama queen.."so what's going in with you two?"
"We might have made out a little bit."
"Oh- la- la. How did that happen?"
"He took my doritos off me and went to sit on the other couch.. Of course no-one steals my food and gets away with it. So I ended up chasing him around the living room and jumped on his back.. He fell and i ended up sitting on him.. He turned around so I was straddling his front. Then he made a sarky comment which made me laugh, told me I had a beautiful smile and I ended up on the couch with him kissing me. No big deal."
It was a big deal to her. Her face was glowing and she pronounced each of the words to her story with finite detail like it was a precious story she was only allowed to repeat once.
"Mmm, so now what?" I pressed.
Her eyes sparkled as she looked at me. "I don't know yet. See how it goes - maybe get him drunk tonight." She shrugged jokingly but knowing Brooke she wouldn't be kidding.
"You're terrible."
"I don't care - he's some kisser. I don't need Tyler too but, I'm quite satisfied." she giggled like a school girl for a second. "Aw, Ebbs, I really like him already!"
"I can tell! Maybe I should give him the 'if you hurt her' speech since you don't have an older brother." I offered. That would be a funny conversation!
"Sorry, I think Peyton and Jason bet you to it."
Well that sucks. "Well, it needs to be emphasised so maybe I'll just say it again, make sure he really knows. Plus, I am the best friend so I'm really the only one allowed to break his face."
Brooke looked at me horrified! "Not the face! It's so beautiful and perfect.."
Jesus, someone's a bit sappy..
