Today is school again and I'm actually not as nervous as I thought I would be. Cody said he would come pick me up this morning.

I dressed in a skinny ripped jean and threw on a grey knitted sweater that hangs just where my leg joins my body. I also decided on my converse and I curled the ends of my hair and also had a bit of make up on.

I jogged down the stairs and saw Alex on the bar stool in the kitchen.

"Hey Alex." I say with a smile and he returns it.

"Good morning." he says and pull me into a hug which I return.

"I just wanted to thank you Peter." I say and pull back.

"For?" he frowns.

"Letting me go yesterday and I know you told Cody to follow me. He told me." I say and he smirks.

"Pleasure." he says and grabs his keys.

"You coming?" he asks as he stands up.

Just when I was about to answer I hear a horn and look out the window. I see Cody getting out his car and I smile and turn back to Alex.

"Nope. I'm fine thank you. See later." I say and hug him again. I grab my phone and both my school bag and sports bag and run out.

I stop when I stand in front of Cody and drop my things and hug him tight and he does the same.

"Morning Miss spy." I hear him say and I hug him closer if that is possible.

"Morning Cody." I say back and pull away but he looks at me with a weird look.

"Your lip gloss is smudged." he says and glance at my lips. I frown. I'm not wearing lip gloss.

He takes me by surprise when he grabs each side of my face gently with both hands and place his lips on mine. I'm shocked when this happens and take a moment to respond but when I do he pulls back because of someone yelling.

"What!?!" he shouts back sounding irritated and I see it's Alex who is standing at his car.

"Don't do that!" he shouts.

"Do what?" he asks and I giggle. He has a smirk on his lips.

"That!" he hollers back.

"What? This?!" Cody yells back and then kiss me again and I hear the gate open and I pull back and pick up my bags. I jog to the passenger seat of Cody's car, I throw my bags in the back and hop in. Cody is laughing while getting into his seat in a fast and rushed way, he starts the car and drive.

I giggle and look back in the mirror to see Alex driving behind us.

"Go!" I giggle loudly and he picks up speed and both of us laugh all the way till we arrive at school.

When we got out Alex was stuck in the traffic at the entrance of the school gates. I grab my school bag and meet Cody at the front of his car and he smiles and gives me a peck on my lips. I smile, grab his hand and tug him into the school building.
