Courtney's POV

We kissed. It was so quick and intense I couldn't tell if it was me or him who kissed first. Either way I kissed him back, hard. His arms were wrapped around my waist, his soft hands crawling up my back, underneath my sweater but I didn't stop him. My arms were wrapped around his neck and I ran a hand through his hair. He kissed my neck a few times and I breathed in softly, not knowing how to react. I liked it and didn't want it to stop but he went back to my lips in seconds, probably scared I would judge him. It. Was. Incredible. Until I realised it wasn't a scripted kiss. And we were still
rolling...and there was other people in the room probably staring at us. Oh well...

Shayne's POV

I could tell people were looking at us, but Courtney didn't seem to care and to be honest neither did I. I pulled away and she rested her forehead on mine. I heard her swallow and breath heavily. I saw her smiling, and I was too. Then I heard a pop and a fizz. We both snapped our heads over to see that Tommy had opened a soda. He was sipping his La Croix and grinning at us cheesily. Everyone was looking at us with hope in their eyes and Spencer's jaw had dropped. I looked back at Courtney and she'd stopped smiling. I dropped her hand and ran. I was crying, silently. Courtney ran too, the other way. But I could still hear her sobbing, trying to catch her breath in between. I didn't know where to go, so I ran to the restroom.

I opened the door so hard it smashed into the wall and left a dent. I turned the taps on and splashed my face. I stood there for a good five minutes just breathing hard like a psycho, getting ready to go back out and then breaking down again. She kissed me. Or I kissed her, I didn't know. But it meant something. I could only imagine what she felt like right now. Where was she anyways?

Courtney's POV

I was crying hysterically. I couldn't hear Shayne, but I knew he was broken. Why would Ian or Sarah or Tommy, or whoever wrote this script do this? I ran as fast as I could. My eyes were blurred with tears, and I don't even know how I got to where I was, I wasn't even looking, I just ran. I sat down on the massive beanbag in the corner of the squad room. I only went there because me and Shayne would chill there all the time. It was our spot. I love our spot. I love him.

Tommy's POV

"Soooo, what was that?" I asked to the crew.

"Shayne and Courtney are in love," Ian replied, face palming.

"Well duh, was it a scripted kiss?" I asked. I need all the tea sis.

"No, they kissed completely of the own accord." Anthony smiled. I grinned back at him. Sarah, Ian, Matt, Spencer and Ryan burst out laughing.

"Why did they run then?" Sarah questioned, catching her breath.

"My guess is that one of them confessed love, the other didn't know how to handle it. I would say Shayne confessed because of his tweet this morning, and he was upset when Court arrived earlier," Ian explained. This was met with a mumble from the group.

"I feel so bad for Shayne, I mean it's clear she loves him but she just can't come to terms with it. I don't blame him for that tweet," I said, nodding my head slowly and sympathetically.

"What could we do?" Anthony though out loud.

"I know!" Matt jumped up, "We could lock them both in the Smoffice for a few hours, put some cameras somewhere and hey presto maybe they'll make up!"

"Matt, that's actually creepy that you'd rig the office but, hats off to ya cos that's not a bad idea," I laughed. We pulled our chairs into a circle and descended into hushed chatter, in case either of them walked in.

Courtney's POV

It'd been 2 hours since the kiss. I hadn't moved from our special spot. Olivia came in to check on me after she'd finished filming The Show W/ No Name with Keith and Noah.

"I heard what happened between you two, how you feeling?" Olivia asked, tilting her head.

"I-" I burst into tears and leapt up to hug her," I can't Olivia! I wanna tell him so bad but what if we break up, or get fired? We've haven't talked about the dating rule since Defy, what if it's still in place. We'd be putting so much at stake!"

"Sssh, it'll be okay, you guys will figure it out, ssssh" she said stroking my hair as I soaked the shoulder of her shirt.

"Thanks for being here, you're the only person who knows, I think," I whispered to her, barely speaking through my sobs.

"It's why we're best friends, we have each other's back. Well I have to go, Noah and I are filming PIIMM in twenty minutes," she said softly, pulling away from the hug. I smiled and winked at her.

"I know Noah must be excited," I grinned.

"Shut up, today isn't about us, everyone's talking about you two," she laughed, spinning as she started to walk away.

"Don't remind me," I fake-laughed, welling up again," See you later, Liv, love you!"

"Bye, love you too Court!" she turned and ran down the hall.

I sat back down on the beanbag, knowing I wouldn't see Shayne until tomorrow morning. I had one of his sweatshirts wrapped around my waist, relieved that Olivia didn't notice, since I forgot it was even there. I unwrapped it and squeezed it tight. I lifted my arms up and pulled my hair through as I put it on. It was miles too big, but I didn't care. I wanted to feel as close to Shayne as possible.

(A/N)

Hey! So, this was an ok Chapter. And before I get comments, I know. Anthony is in this fan fic but this is set like a few months after Defy's shutdown so he wouldn't be here. Just roll with it, Anthony's great! Anyways, I hope you like this Chapter. S-s-s-s-spicyyyy. Oh well, comment if you liked it and don't forget to vote if you're liking my first story so far!
