I really have no clue which song to put for this one so I'm sorry it's not related to the chapter. I couldn't fit it in anyway. Anyway, it's Feeling Good by Muse. Great song. And I thought it went alright with the chapter a bit. Yeah...

"You don't have to cover it up."
"Yes I do Zoe. He'll see and then... Oh just... I do!"
"Stop arguing with each other! You've been on it for 10 minutes!" Ty came in with popcorn. Typical.
"Two things to say to that Ty."
"Skye."
"Tyler. Anyway. One, don't come in with popcorn expecting a movie of this and I wasn't arguing. Just explaining why I'm right."
"Uh-hu. Leave it Skye! You're going out as friends, why would he care?"
"Because he has the other one." I spoke softly to myself. You know the 'I just had an idea and I'm going to run off expecting everyone to trust me while I don't tell them' kind of way.
"See! He wo-hat did you say?"
"When he caught me from toppling into the pool after someone," dramatic head turn to Ty, "tried to pull me in, I saw it. I'm no expert on this line thing but when he touched me I could see it on him. And he was looking at me like he saw it too. No, you're right. I won't cover it. He knows it's there."
I saw Ty and Zoe look to the side of my face and assumed it grew more. Slightly. I then ignored the stares from Callum and Kyle as I passed their rooms and ran into mine, quickly changing into a nicer top and skinny jeans. And luckily, by the time I was actually ready Damon was walking up the path. I grabbed my phone and ran outside before Zoe had a chance to 'awkwardise' the situation. He's still a robot...
"Hey Damon. Let's go!"
"Just us?"
"Yeah, unless you want to die of annoyance by the end of the day. You have to be trained to be round Ty and Ry. And Zoe's going home soon. Why?"
"I don't know, you know. Yeah."
"Look if this was a date don't you think we'd be going in the evening to somewhere nicer than pizza hut. And I've been alone with Ty and Ry and sometimes one of my brothers. It's fine."
"You never the line though."
"Apparently we have 3 weeks. And fate will help us. I know you have the other one so there is no need to hide it in your pocket." He slipped his hand out. "And just because you have it doesn't mean I'm going to treat you differently to my other friends. You're still a friend until the line probably reaches the top my shoulder. Then I might have a crush on you until it finishes at my hand. You have 3 weeks to make that happen."
"And what if I don't want this to happen." I saw another swirl appear round his finger, making three in total. I felt another one grow from mine, This would be annoying.
"Why don't you? Just let it happen."
"No, I can't. I swore I would never again fall in love with someone. Ever."
"What happ-" He shook his head and I took the signal to stop. "Ok. Do you want Pizza Hut, Burger King or McDonalds?"
He led me into Pizza Hut and we spent the next few hours just talking. We walked the long route home instead of seeing a movie and spent about an hour just hanging in the park before walking home. "What's the time?"
Damon glanced at his phone, texted something quickly and looked back to me. "5 ish."
"K. Wanna come back to mine?"
