Happen In Time

TATI

"Well guys, I kinda like someone and..... I think I don't have the chance in his heart." I start, then they start to get serious.

"Well, for some reason, I thought he's just being friendly but then, it turns out that I, have fallen for him."

"Ooohhhhhh.... Spill the beans already!" Bailey says in excitement

"Yeah! I'm dying to find out who is it!" Kaycee agrees.

"I think if not telling you.... But, I can't take it anymore." I pause. "Oh gosh.... It's... Its Gabe-"

"No way!"

"Really!? You're not obvious!" Were the reactions I received from them.

"OMG girl! Since when?" Kaycee ask, red as a tomato.

"Since Ken left...."

"Oh my gosh! That's too long!" Bailey says. "How did you even fight the urge or admitting!"

"I can say, you're a strong girl..."

"I know.. But, I can't just approach him and tell him 'hey Gabe! Just wanna tell you that I start to build this feelings for you for the past years now and HERE I AM, admitting' .... I don't wanna be rude. And I strongly disagree to the fact that I, being the girl will approach a guy and ask him for a date!!" And then we laugh.

"Yes.. You're right..." Kaycee says.

"So, what should we do?"

SEAN

"Maddie, I want this conversation to end nicely as what is planned with pure intention and nothing but peace between you and me with Kaycee."

"Yeah.... Of course."

"So, get straight to the pony because I have plans to attend to this afternoon."

"So Sean, I know I've caused Kaycee  so much pain because she misunderstood us-"

"Maddie, don't blame this to Kaycee. She didn't do wrong."

"Okay. As I was saying, meeting you made her think that you've been doing wrong.   That we've been doing wrong, actually..m and I'm truly sorry about that part. But trust me Sean, it wasn't even my fault that I've fallen for you!"

"Maddie, please... Let's have peace already."

"Peace? What about me Sean? I've given up for us be cause you and Kaycee are together-"

"There's no such thing as 'US' Maddie."

"Sean...... Look. I know I've been acting bad and causing chaos to your relationship but trust me, it wasn't my intention of getting involved in the first place... But what can we do? Sean, those times, u was too desperate on having you back."

"And please Maddie, I just want you to be happy with your new boyfriend now. I don't want to get involve in your relationship, as I don't want you to get involve in mine. So could you please just let me go?"

She smiles at me.

"Sean, thank you.."

"Thank you too, Maddie."

Then, we hug each other.

"Well, I think I gotta go now." I sag and about to leave when-

"Can I at least do something?"

I look at her.

"What do you mean?"

"Can I at least make it up to her?"

"How?"

"I know you have plans for Kaycee's birthday next week... I wanna help you out.

I smile at her sweet offer.

"Thank you.... I'll just give you a call when I start the plan."

"Sounds good."

The whole time, I've been at the mall, buying some foods for our dinner tonight. I wanna Cook something special since we haven't done this for a long time now due to busy schedules and our little fights.

I take a rest at the ice cream parlor, ordering myself a strawberry mallows flavor. While having a cool time, someone takes a seat in front of me.

"Whoa! Never though you'd be here."

"Autumn?"

"Hey Sean!"

I smile and we stand up, hugging each other. After a minute,we let go and go back to our seats.

"Wow! Never imagine I'll see you here."

"I know right? It's a coincidence... But, what are you doing here all alone?"

"Well, as you can see here, I've bought some food to cook for our dinner-"

"So it's true?" She sounds excited.

"True about what?"

"You and Kaycee?"

"Yeah... Aren't you-"

"OMG!! Congrats to the both of you!"

"Thanks... But, as I was saying-"

"You want to make it a dinner date?"

"Yeah...."

"I can give a help."

"Really?"

"Yeah... So let's hurry up here, go home fast and start cooking!

"Yeah!"

"And oh... It's still 13:05, we can still make it all happen until 16-17."

So, we hurry up eating our ice cream (despite experiencing brain freeze) and immediately headed to mg place. Since she had herself her  own car, we both decided to drive our own, and she'll just follow me back.

Oh gosh! I'm excited for our dinner date!

Fr: Kaycee

Hey Sean, I'm heading home. I'm with Bailey and Tati. You don't have to pick me up... I love you

I smile at her message. Sorry Kay. I've already decided not to pick you up.

To: Kaycee

I'm already home a few hours ago. I guess I'll just wait you here. Have a safe ride. Love you too!

As I send that, Autumn came from the dining are, carrying a bottle of champagne.

"I could guess that Kaycee texted you."

"Yeah... She's on her way home now."

"Good. But, to make the plan work," she pauses, looking at me with a grin.

After setting the plan, we make sure that the plan will really work, so we even practice the scenes.

Then soon, we heard screeching of tires, indicating that they had arrive.

"Are you ready Sean?" She ask me. I just heaved a breath.

"I think so."

Then, the door opens.

"Sean, I'm-"

KAYCEE

"Be safe, okay?" I say as I close the car door.

"Yeah. Goodnight girl!" They bid goodbye and I take out my keys, opening the door.

"Sean I'm-" I'm a bit excited buy when I open the door wide, he was having a fun time with a girl on our couch!

They were laughing g but soon stop as I interrupt them. Turns out that the woman he's with is Autumn.

"When-"

"Oh! Hey Kaycee! I've missed you!"
