6 - The Plan

Connor's P.O.V

We bought our frozen yoghurts, then we took a seat at one of the tables. I got the normal flavor with some marshmallows while Beth got the cake batter flavor and rainbow sprinkles.

B: "You know, I really do have to call you a geek for getting the normal flavor. I mean, look at all these flavors! Why did you get this one in particular?"

I knew she'd say that.

C: "Yeah I know I am. But when I first tried frozen yoghurt I tried this flavor and it just stuck. I never liked flavored yoghurt."

B: "Ooh okay. That makes sense now."

She flashed me a smile that was to die for, before drifting her attention back to her yoghurt.

I couldn't take this anymore. I want her. She needs to be mine... I hope she feels the same. Ugh. But then again she's leaving in two days! How was I supposed to get all these preparations ready?!

B: "Earth to Connor!"

Bethany waved her palm in front of me, bringing me back into the real harsh world.

C: "Oh! Umm, sorry... I was just in deep thought."

I probably looked super stupid then.

B: "Its okay. I do that at times too."

C: "Oh really?"

B: "Yep. I totally understand."

C: "Great. At least now I won't feel like a total idiot."

She laughed.

B: "You never were, Con."

She winked at me.

Damn.

C: "Thanks Beth."

B: "Anytime! Well I just thought of something... its important and I need to tell you."

Great. Now she's probably gonna tell me that she thinks I'm a stupid freak.

C: "What? That I'm a freak?"

B: "What, no! Its good news, Con!"

Oh.

C: "Oohh okay! What is it?"

B: "Well remember just now, when I was texting someone?"

C: "The important one you had to take?"

B: "Yep, that one."

C: "Yeah, so? What about it?"

B: "Well it was my manager, and I can't go to Vietnam because of the riots there."

That... wasn't good news though?

C: "Oh. That's unfortunate... I'm so sorry..."

B: "Yeah... but on the bright side, it means I can come back here! My manager is giving me the time of travel I'm supposed to be at Vietnam to come back here."

No way. That's too good to be true.

C: "That's.. that's great!!"

B: "Yeah. I figured I wanted to come back to spend time with you."

Aww.

C: "Great choice. You should always place your trust in me when it comes to fun."

B: "I will trust you then. Do me proud!"

She gave me one of her famous winks.

Just in time. A miracle has come. Thank you, oh kind Lord.
