6- Bughead kiss

(Few days later)

Lili's pov:

"I can't do it!" I shout in my trailer. "Lili?" Madchen says with a worried tone. "Come in" I say and sit down. "What's wrong?" She asks. "The kiss with Cole" I sigh. "Why are you worried about it?" she asks. "Um- He's my best friend and it's- I don't know-" I stumble. "Lili, it's more than that and you know it" Madchen says as she smirks at me. "No, it's not that" I lie. "Lil, the kiss will be fine its a quick 8 second kiss, thats it" She says. "I know but its just- nothing" I sigh. "Tell me" Madchen says as she places her hand on my shoulder. "I may, maybe like-" I say and stop before I say his name. "I know" Madchen smiles. "I have a good feeling about this" She says. I nod slowly and stare at the floor. "Have you talked to Mads, Cami or Casey, yet?" She asks. "Only Mads" I sigh. "I miss them" I mumble. "I'll be back in a second" Madchen smiles and leaves my trailer. I sit there silently until I see someone that I needed to see. "Lil, I'm so sorry" Cami says almost in tears. "Your right" I smile and hug her tightly. "Right about what?" She asks. "I like Cole, but I'm not saying anything, Okay" I say. "I know" Cami murmurs. "I missed you" I sigh. "Me too" She smirks as we break the hug. "Where's Casey?" I ask. "Here" He mumbles. "Case!" I shout and jumps into his arms. "I'm sorry, it's just I love you two" Casey says. "And I get that" I smile. "Uh, Lil, scene" Cole sighs as he walks past. "Cole, wait!" I yell and run after him. "What?" He asks as I reach him. "We haven't talked in a few days" I sigh. "Yep" He says and continues walking. "Cole, whats wrong" I ask as I stand there. "Nothing" He says and opens the door to set. I walk a little faster and grab his shoulder. "What Lili" He says with his grizzled snarl like face. "I miss you" I murmur. "Me too" He sighs and pulls me into a hug. "This is not going to change anything, right?" I ask. "No, it won't" He smiles. "We better get to set" He smiles and grabs my hand. 

"Morning Roberto" I smile as we walk to one of the golf carts. "Morning, You two ready?" He asks. We both nod and get into the back of the cart. "Don't forget about us!" Cami yells and jumps in. "Your coming?" I ask. "Of course" Casey says. "Wheres Mads?" I ask. "She said she didn't want to annoy you" Cami says. I chuckle and let them come. Once we got to set, butterflies filled my stomach and I swear I was about to have a panic attack. "Lil, just breath" Cami says as we stand in a corner. "I am so nervous" I sigh. "It's going to be fine" Cami says. "Lili, You ready!?" Roberto asks. "Yeah, I guess" I sigh and walk over to the dresser. "And- Action!" Some guys shouts. Cole taps on the window as scripted and we start the scene. "Hey there, Juliet, Nurse of duty? You haven't gone full yellow wallpaper on me yet, have you?" Cole says. "My parents are crazy" I say. "They're parents, They're all crazy" Cole says. "No, but what if polly is, too? The way she was talking to me, the way she looked at me and now, all I can think is, maybe I'm crazy like they are" I say. "Hey, We're all crazy. We're not out parents, Betty. We're not our families." Cole says and pauses. 'Oh no, here it comes' I think. "Also" Cole says under his breath. "What?" I say and pause. His face inches closer and closer by the second. 'Fuck!' "What?" I say for the final time. He inches closer and I can feel his breath on my lips. And then he kisses me and I have to say it was the best 8 seconds of my life. I just fell in love with him even more. I pull away slightly and I can see Cole breath out in relief which I knew wasn't scripted. "The car!" I say and we continue on with the scene.  

Cole's pov:

When I kissed Lili I felt the sparks between us and I immediately knew I was in love with her. After the kiss, Kj and I went back to my trailer because he insisted he needed to talk to me. "Dude, that was full on chemistry" He says a little shocked. "The kiss was amazing but it can't happen" I sigh. "When are you seeing her again?" Kj asks. "Not sure, I don't want to make this awkward" I say. "You guys are meant to be" Kj says smirking. "Lili is 19 years old there is no way she wants to be with me" I say. "But what happens if she does want to be with you?" Kj smirks. "I just don't know" I sigh. "Look, I'm sure Lili feels the same way as you do, You just need to say something or it least hint to her" Kj says. "I would but I love our friendship way too much to risk it" I say. "You really like her, You are just being polite" Kj says. "Like is an understatement I love Lili" I say not realising what I just said. "You love her?!" Kj says. "Did I say that? No I'm sure I never said that" I say trying to cover it up. "Sure Cole, Keep telling yourself that, I know what you said" Kj says. "Shut up you don't know anything, now goodbye" I say laughing. Kj puts his hands up like he surrenders and then he leaves the trailer while chuckling. I sit back on the couch and think about the kiss with Lili. I have to talk to her. 

ColeS- Can we maybe talk?

LiliR- Can we talk later I'm with Cami

ColeS- Alright 

LiliR- Cole..

ColeS- Mm

LiliR- Nothing, talk to you later. Xx

ColeS- Oh okay. Just text me when you are available. 

LiliR- Okay ❤️

Lili's pov:

"Lili, you enjoyed it we could tell" Cami says as we enter my trailer. "No I didn't, I mean it was nice but thats all it is, Okay" I say. "Cole like sighed in relief when he kissed you, Lil" Cami says. "Yeah, but he was probably just nervous because of the scene and all" I say as I sit down on the couch. "Lil, he likes you, you like him, boom its that easy" Cami says. "It's not that easy Cam, and no I don't like him that much" I say. "You legit said before that you liked him" Cami says. "I was-uh- lying" I say. "Oh Lili, you'll never admit it" Cami says. I feel my phone buzz so I grab it out and of course it was Cole. Cole asked if we could talk and as much as I want to... I can't. I replied saying 'I was with Cami so later' and left it there. "Who was that?" Cami says, smirking. "No one" I chuckle. "Lover boy, is texting you, isn't he" Cami smirks. "What, no!" I yell. "Lil, I will drag Cole over here right now just  to prove it" Cami says. "Don't you dare!" I shout. Cami smirks at me and then stands up. "I best be leaving" She grins. "Yes, now get out" I chuckle. "Talk later" Cami smiles and leaves. "Hey, Cami" I hear someone say. 'Fuck!' "Can I come in?" Cole asks. "I guess" I sigh. "Can we talk?" He asks. I nod and make room on the couch. "I like you Lili but we-" Cole says but I cut him off. "I know, we can't" I sigh. "So you kind of like me?" Cole asks. "Of course I do" I chuckle. "It's just too unprofessional" I sigh. "I agree" Cole smiles. "Wanna watch a movie, before we have to film again?" I ask. "Yeah sure" He smiles and grabs the remote. I connect my phone to the tv and we end up watching some stupid movie on Netflix. 

"Can the main cast come to the meeting room now!" We hear over the speaker. "Thats strange" I say. "Come on" Cole chuckles as he stands up. We walk to the meeting room and sit down. "What's going on?" Mads whispers to me as she sits down. "Who knows" I say. "I have some very exciting news to share with you all" Roberto says. "Were going to Comic con!" He says with an excited tone. "Really!" We all shout. "Yes, we got invited just a few hours ago!" He says. "When is it?" Kj asks. "In 2 weeks" Roberto says. As much as I was excited to go I had to travel on a plane and I hate flying; I hate my stupid anxiety. "How exciting!" Cami yells. "Alright you are all released but I need Cole and Lili for a scene" Roberto says. Cole and I get up and head to the school set. "You excited?" Cole asks as we walk inside the school. "Yeah, I guess" I murmur. "Lil, whats wrong?" Cole asks. "Nothing" I smile weakly. "Lili" Cole says as he grabs my shoulders. "I just don't like flying" I sigh. "I'll be there with you" Cole smiles and takes me into a hug. "Thank you" I smile. "Now come on, let's go shoot this scene so we can go home" Cole chuckles and pulls me towards the filming spot. 

Cole's pov:

I feel bad for Lili because of all the flying and stuff. Once we finished filming Lili and I went back to the trailers. "Do you need a ride home?" I ask Lili. "Um, I think I'm going to stay here tonight" Lili smiles softly. "I don't want you here alone, Lil" I say. "Really, it's fine" She says. "If you stay, I'm staying" I say. "Cole, really you don't have to" Lili says. "Nope, I'm staying" I say. "I'll feel bad" Lili sighs. "While let me take you home then" I chuckle. Lili looks at me with a look I can only understand. I pull her into a hug while tears stream down her beautiful face. "What's wrong, lil" I sigh. "Why do you care so much" She sobs. "Because I love you, so much" I say. She pulls back and looks me straight in the eyes. "You-u love-e me-e" She stutters. "Of course I love you, Lili" I say. "In more ways than one" I mutter under my breath. "Huh?" She says as she wipes the tears off her face. "Nothing" I say. "Cole, tell me" She says as she does her reassuring smile. "I love you- In more ways than one" I sigh. "What do you mean?" She asks. "My feelings can't go away that quick" I mumble. "You really love me?" She asks. "I love you more than you will ever know" I say and start walking away. "Cole..." Lili says. I turn around and look at her. "I love you too"
