Accidentally In Love (An IM5 fanfiction)

That Should be Me - Chapter 11

Cole's POV

It was 7 am when I heard the door open and close in Annabelle and I's bedroom. I sat up and saw Annabelle tiptoeing into the room, trying not to wake me or the others next door up.
"Annabelle?" I whispered. She sheepishly waved and smiled nervously.
"Heeeeyyyy Coley, how ya doin?" She said, just as quietly.
"Oh thank God!" I whispered yelled, jumped out of bed and pulled her into my chest, hugging her. She paused then hugged back.
"Where were you? Theresa would have had a panic attack if Cody wasn't here." I said, holding her still by grabbing her shoulders.
"Whoa, who's Cody?" She asked looking at me.
"Never mind that. We all were so worried. Seriously though, where the hell were you?" I said, running a hand through my brown hair, gel-less and still slightly damp from the shower I took last night.
"Well, funny story. I was getting the stuff you guys asked for, and this kid Alex, who works at Target, checked out my items, and during this, the doors locked and the lights went off. So Alex turned the power back on, and we played video games and kinda maybe got drunk and yeah then we fell asleep. I could have stayed up longer but he made me go to bed so yeah. I swear to God I did not make up any of this." She explained, then sighed of relief.
I looked in her eyes and I could tell she wasn't lying.
"Okay, just make sure you tell Theresa this." I said, rubbing the stubble on my chin.
"Okay well, I'm going to bed. Goodnight." She said.
"More like Good Morning." I joked. She giggled.
"Then... good morning Cole." She rolled over and fell asleep quickly.

I walked out of our room quietly, so I wouldn't wake Annabelle up. I trudged down stairs, to see Dana just now sitting down, like he'd been up for 3 minutes longer than I have.
"Sup Cole." He said, rubbing his eyes and running a hand through his curly hair.
"Hey Dana."
"Were you talking to someone in there?"
"Yeah, Annabelle's back."
"WHAT?!" He said, getting up to tell the others and to see her. I grabbed his arm before he could get anywhere.
"Stop, she's had a long night and she's sleeping so she doesn't need all the chaos right now."
"Do you know where she was?"
"Target."

3 hours later (still Cole's POV)

"ANNABELLE!"
I jumped out of my chair and ran upstairs and saw Theresa yelling at Annabelle.
"Whoa whoa whoa Theresa. Chill. All of that wasn't her fault." I said, stepping between them.
Annabelle and I told her the story of what happened at Target and when she came home.
"Jesus Christ Annabelle, don't you know how worried we were? Why didn't you answer your phone?" Theresa said, pulling on the ends of her hair; she does that when she's scared, nervous, or frustrated.
"No cell service." Annabelle said smiling. Theresa smiled too, their inside joke is Annabelle's cell service.

Annabelle's phone rang.
"Hello? Oh hey! Uhhhh... How bout 11:00? Yeah. YES. Ugh your so frustrating. *giggles* Okay I'll see you then, bye. Bye. BYE." She turned to us.
"Okay well I gotta go, I'll see you guys later." She said, turning and trying to run out the door, but Theresa grabbed her arm.
"You're not going anywhere until we know what's going on." She said, pointing at the both of us.
"Well, remember Alex I mentioned? We're going to hang out now, bye!"
Theresa let her go.
"Why would you let her go we don't even know the kid. Besides, they JUST met, and sounds to me that they're a little too close and -"
"Sounds to me like someone's a little jealous."
I stopped my rant and looked up at her, pretending to be confused. She just winked and strutted down the hall like she just caught someone liking someone. She basically just did.

I walked over to the window and saw Annabelle hugging this Alex kid then getting in the car with him, laughing. I couldn't help but think:

That should have been me.
