One More Chance (Part 2)(23)
“Last night,” Quinn says excitedly.
“I’m happy for you,” I say as I give her a hug, “Took you long enough,” I say looking directly at Brody.
“What?” he asks looking innocent.
“You two have been going in circles for months,” I say laughing.
“I know, but it doesn’t matter now,” Quinn says.
“I think you two are perfect for each other.”
I couldn’t think of two better people to be together than these two. They are opposites on a lot of things, but they actually have a lot more in common than they both realized.
“Thanks,” Brody says.
“So, I want details,” I say as I sit on the chair. They both take a seat on the couch.
“Good, because I’ve been dying to tell you,” Quinn squeals.
“She wanted to wake you up last night to tell you,” Brody says laughing.
“Why didn’t you?”
“Because it was late and I figured you would probably be sleeping.”
“You could have woken me up.”
“Nah, it’s okay.”
“Well, I will let you ladies talk, I’ll be back in a little while,” he says before leaning down and kissing Quinn.
“See ya,” I say with a smile, “You’re blushing,” I tell Quinn when Brody’s out of earshot.
“I’m so freaking happy right now it’s pathetic,” she says as her head falls back onto the couch cushion.
“I can see that, so tell me what happened.”
“So last night at the party we started talking after you left. I was a little tipsy, but so was he. He came right out and told me he had a crush on me.”
“Oh yeah, well that’s good,” I say excited for my best friend.
“I had just taken a drink and he caught me so off guard, it came flying out of my mouth, luckily he wasn’t standing in front of me, but it was a good laugh.”
“Only you,” I say shaking my head.
“I know right, I was just thankful I didn’t give him a mouthful of beer in his face, how horrible and embarrassing would that have been?”
I can’t help but laugh, “Okay continue,” I say, wanting to hear more.
“Basically, I told him I liked him too. So we danced, talked, and hung out for a little while longer before deciding to come back here.”
“Did you get a good night kiss?”
“More like a make out session in bed,” she says all excitedly.
“Brody slept here last night?” I ask, confused because I didn’t see him.
“Sure did.”
“You hussie,” I joke.
“We didn’t have sex, though I wasn’t opposed to it.”
“Why not then?”
“He said the first time we have sex, we are not going to have alcohol in our systems.”
“Oh damn, he wants you to remember every second of it,” I say laughing.
“I know right, so tonight no drinking,” she says completely serious.
“Tonight?” I ask laughing.
“Yes, I want sex and I like him and I know him, and yes, just yes,” she says blushing again.
“By all means, you do what you gotta do,” I say laughing hard, “So are you guys together, together then?”
“Yep. He asked me last night when we were in bed if I would be his girlfriend,” she says excitedly.
“I’m really happy for you. I think you guys look cute together,” I say honestly.
“Thanks. So tell me about the guy you were talking to,” she says with piqued interest.
“His name is Jason and he’s nice.”
“And hot,” she points out.
“Yes, definitely hot,” I say laughing.
“You guys spent a long time talking.”
“We did, it was nice. He seems like a really good guy.”
“And?”
“I’m definitely going to hang out with him again,” I say happily.
“Good, who knows maybe he’s your next boyfriend,” she says with excitement.
“No,” I say shaking my head, “Once I tell him I’m pregnant, I’m sure he’ll be running for the hills.”
“Maybe not, you don’t know yet.”
“I do know. I took a test last night,” I say nervously.
“Seriously?” she asks, looking shocked.
“Yeah, Kenzie got one for me last night on the way home.”
“Holy shit, why didn’t you tell me?”
“This is the first I’ve seen you since I took the stupid test,” I say with a look.
“You should have called me; I would have been here for you.”
“It’s fine. Kenzie was here and talked to me.”
“What are you going to do?”
“Hopefully hide it until I get to London.”
