Never Letting Go - Cody Simpson Fanfic

Chapter 42

"Madison, we're on." I said quietly. "Mhm, let's go." She walked past me. I caught up with her before Cody could speak to me. "What was that about?" "How much did you hear?" She asked. "You said something about it being a massive mistake and that you shouldn't have done it."

"Oh right." "I figured you meant sleeping with him but now I'm not so convinced." I sighed. "I'm going to let him speak to you first." "But if he doesn't, by tomorrow, you'll tell me?" I looked over at her. She nodded while staring at the ground. "I just want you to know that I love you a lot." She looked at me with a smile forced on her face. "And I'm sorry for not telling you the truth." She added.

I opened my mouth to speak but she cut me off. "Let's go have fun and forget about this." "Okay." I followed her to where we were supposed to be. The rest of the photoshoot seemed to drag. I just wanted to go home so I could talk to Cody about what I'd heard. We finished around five and went home.

We went back to Cody's house because we're having a barbecue there tonight. I went into Cody's bathroom to have a shower. When I came out Cody and Trey were sat on the floor trying to assemble what I'm guessing is a stand that you put a Moses basket on.

"You guys struggling?" I asked. "Don't look so amused." Trey narrowed his eyes at me. I laughed and got some clothes out of Cody's closet. I have a few outfits here. I went back into the bathroom and got changed before drying my hair and then coming back out to find the boys still sat on the floor but with Brad as well.

"Are you serious?!" I laughed at them. "It's so confusing! It didn't even come with instructions." Brad defended. "Where's the box?" I asked and they all pointed to it. I went over and picked it up. "No instructions, huh?" "Nope." "Did you check the back of the box?" I showed them.

"That's not funny." Cody groaned. I laughed and passed him the box before kneeling down next to him. "Look, this clearly goes in here and then you put that on there." I showed them. The three of them watched me put the stand together by myself. "And then you stand it up and it's done." I smiled at my work before getting up.

"Where's my niece?" I dusted off my hands. "Downstairs." Trey said as they all got up as well. I smiled and ran off downstairs. Alli was sat with Ariana on her lap so I sat next to her. "She's the cutest thing ever." Alli said without looking away from her. "I know." I smiled and squeezed Ariana's hand lightly.

"Are the boys done yet?" "I did it for them. They were sat there for at least half an hour trying to do it with no instructions and then I showed them the instructions and did it for them. It took like two minutes to put together." I said which made Mom, Angie and Cara laugh. "Bless them." Mom shook her head with another chuckle.

"In our defence, we didn't see the instructions." Cody said as they came outside. "And you had to get your girlfriend to do it for you?" Alli teased. "Shut up." He laughed. Cody lifted me up and sat on my chair before placing me on his lap. I got up and sat on a different chair.

"Someone's in a bad mood." Trey noticed. "I don't even know what I did." Cody shrugged. I rolled my eyes and went inside. "Are you okay, sweetie?" Angie came in after me. "Yeah." I smiled and nodded. "Are you sure?" "Mhm. Do you need any help with any food?" "You could make a potato salad? The potatoes are already cooked." "Okay." I opened the cupboard for what I'd need.

After a few minutes Cody came inside too. I watched him as he pulled his body onto the counter and then I went back to doing what I was doing. "What did I do?" He asked. I ignored him. "No answer?" Once again, I ignored him.

"Look, I clearly haven't done anything wrong or else you would be shouting at me right now so why take it out on me?" "Because all I do is shout at you." I scoffed. "I didn't mean that, I just mean-" "What were you and Madison talking about? What have you been lying about?" I dropped what I was doing and turned to face him.
