One More Chance: Book 1

Ch. 5 - Senior Week I

(Devyn)
Emery and I have been up all night baking 200 cupcakes.

"Oh my god. Tell me about you and Xander."

"We made out. Nothing more. We talked everything out before the make out though. But everything is perfect. Ethan can try and ruin it all he wants."

She sat on the island and I laid my head in her lap. She moved my hair behind me so it wasn't in my eyes.

"Why so many cupcakes?"

"Hey, we are doing our part. Plus I called the guys over to help out."

"Wait."

"Yes, including your boo."

I smiled and I heard knocking. "That's them."

I stayed put, "Come in. Lock the door behind you."

Emery and I were hugging each other because we already baked three dozen cupcakes and dozens more to go.

"Okay, just give Emery all of my hugs."

I giggled and kissed Xander's soft lips. My hands snuck under his shirt and he smirked, pushing my glasses up for me.

"We brought takeout as well." "Oh you're amazing." I kissed his lips again, taking the food from him in the process.

"Em? Chinese food."

She giggled and we started to eat some of it.

"How many do you need to bake?" "200 cupcakes. We have 36 as of now."

It was the following morning and Devyn and Emery were just getting to school with all the cupcakes.

"Need help with those?"

"Please?"

Devyn handed me a few trays of cupcakes and she and Emery had one.

"I didn't say all of them."

"Hey, you offered."

Hero and Jax carried some cupcakes, their supplies in and we walked over to their booth that was placed outside with everyone else.

"Damn, you guys have quite the set up." "I know."

We helped them set up and they let us join their group for the fundraiser.

"Okay. Guys, listen up. Set everything up and in 30 minutes, I need you all in the gym sitting in the bleachers."

(Devyn)
Emery and I were decorating the catering dishes with cupcakes and set up the napkins and other supplies out.

The guys were helping us build our booth making it bright and pop with color.

"Alright. Anything else?"

"Yes. A kiss."

Xander was blushing and I giggled while kissing his lips.

"How come you two flirt around with each other, yet, you're not together?"

Emery and I were walking together, our arms linked, while the guys walked behind us.

"I don't know. Scared to be in a relationship right now. Plus it's fun."

"I agree with that. But you said you were ready to jump in his bones."

"Kind of already did."

"Mhm."

She shook her head and we headed to the gym.

"Alright, everyone gather in the gym. Take a seat."
