As I saw Rae's car pull up, I noticed Alli in the passenger's seat. I ran up opened the back door and climbed in.

"Cody seriously left you here alone" Alli said upset.

"He didn't want to, but I finally got him to go" I explained in Cody's defense.

"Why didn't you want a ride with him?" She asked "what happened?"

"Nothing happened, I just didn't want him to be late to the interview" I answered innocently. Alli just sighed. "What!" I demanded.

"Nothing, it doesn't matter" she rolled her eyes. I crossed my arms and pouted. What the hell did I do to get her pissed. Then something else occurred to me.

"Why'd you two ditch us anyway?" I growled "if anyone has a right to be mad it's me!"

"I'm not mad at you"Alli sighed.

"Well it sure seems like it" I mumbled softly.

"Well I'm not mad at you, I'm more mad at myself than anything" she replied softly.

"Why are you mad at yourself?" I asked curiously.

"She's trying to work her match maker magic" Rae giggled.

"What?"I asked, sure I didn't hear her right.

"Cody likes you, and she was trying to help him" Rae teased.

"Cody said I could only help him if I didn't tell her he liked her!" Alli grumbled and glared at Rae.

"But yooooouuuuu didn't tell her, I did" Rae smirked. I sat there shocked with my mouth hanging open while they argued. My eyes were probably the size of golf balls. Cody likes me I thought in disbelief!

"Cody likes me" I mumbled shocked.

"You can't tell him I told you" she pleaded "he'll kill me!"

"I won't tell" I said still in disbelief "I guess you forgot about the interview"

"There was no interview" she murmured.

"But his manager called him to tell him he was late" I stated confused.

"That was me" Alli smiled sheepishly "I was calling to remind him of the dinner reservations. We covered up the dinner reservations by calling it an interview."

"But why didn't he just tell me when I insisted he go" I said feeling guilty. He tried to convince me to let him drive me home, and I just refused. I was the one that screwed up Alli's plan. I sighed in defeat.

"He probably thought you didn't like him, with you all insisting he leave." Alli explained. I just face palmed myself. "The only question I have is, do you like him?" I thought about this. Do I like Cody? There was only one answer that flashed in my head, YES.

"I, um, well, I, uh, ......yeah" I whispered.

"I knew it!" She chanted "come on!" She jumped out of the car seeing as how we were now in her driveway, opened my door, and dragged me into her house. She pulled up the stairs and down the hall until we were standing outside Cody's bedroom door. She knocked on the door and fled to her room quickly.

"Alli!" I yelled in a whisper as I realized what she had done. I was going to make a fool of myself. Soon I heard footsteps walking to the door and watched the door swing open. Cody was in the door was wearing only his jeans, no t-shirt. I have to admit I liked it.

"Alli, I don't wanna-"he stopped abruptly as he saw me there. I felt the blush rise in my cheeks. "Oh, uh, hey Krista" he stammered embarrassed.

"Hey" I said nervously. What was I supposed to say. I had no idea so I just blushed more.

"I wasn't feeling well" he stammered "that's why I'm not at the interview and-"

"Alli told me everything!" I blurted cutting him off. Crap, why did I just say that I freaked in my head. I blushed even more, if my face can get any redder than it already is.

"Look, I, uh" he stuttered "Alli wasn't supposed to tell you that, I, I know you don't like me that way and-." That's when I did the only thing I could think of, I grabbed his shoulders and pulled him into a kiss. It was amazing. Before I knew it his arms were snaking around my waist and I had my arms around his neck.

"Awww, that's so cute" Alli cooed "you know I think that dinner reservation is still valid." I pulled away from Cody embarrassed and blushing.

"Uh, great" Cody beamed "I'll go grab a shirt." With that he ducked back into his room. When he came out he had on a plain white shirt and dark blue zip up hoodie. He grabbed my hand and we ducked around Alli. I followed as he led me out of the house and to a limo waiting outside.

"How did you know to call your driver?" I asked confused, how was he supposed to know I would show up at his bedroom door.

" I didn't" he chuckled "my guess is Alli" I laughed and with that we climbed into the limo and rode away.
