Chapter 4: Is It Working?

I made my way home and was greeted by everyone.

"So, is it working?" mom asked.

"Yep."

"Woohoo." Everyone said.

"Soon Jora will sail." Joey said.

"Who?"

"You and Aurora, Jora." I just shook my head.

It's been two weeks, Jordan picks me up, then our usual at school, and after classes he says his always busy with Kathy.

I went to get breakfast, then Jordan picked me up.

We arrived at school but I stopped him before he got out of the car.

"Are things gonna change between us?" I asked.

"Why?"

"Because I only see you when you pick me up and at school. You don't hang with me like we used too. Are you mad at me?" I said as a few tears escaped.

"Course not. You know how much I love you and what you mean to me." He said as he rested his forehead with mine.

"Those beautiful eyes of yours shouldn't be crying." He wiped my tears.

"How about a kiss." He said as he gave me a kiss that was a bit closer to my cheek and lips. Uh what just happened.

"Piggy ride?" He asked.

"Yup." I smiled shaking whatever it is that I felt in the car.

We made our way to the lockers.

"Hey babe." Kathy gave him a kiss on his cheek."

Ugh.

"Hey yourself." He returned the kiss.

"I'm just gonna go over to Jack." I said before leaving.

"Dude, I can't believe it's working." Matt said.

"Wanna know what I did in the car?" He told them and they were a bit surprised.

"What did she say?" Jamie asked.

"She was a bit surprised, but didn't questioned me why I did that."

"Eeiik, Can't believe dad idea is working." Brisa said.

"Yup, hopefully she doesn't kill me when I tell her everything."

"It's Aurora, she has her dad's temper." Trisha said.

"Trisha, i want to talk to you about Biology." Kathy said as she dragged her out of our sight.

"When are you planning on confessing your love?" Joey asked.

"When she explodes."

After classes, Jordan and I went to grab some cupcakes and coffee at my dad's Bakery.

And our thing when we eat cupcakes is we cut them in half then his other half would complete my cupcake and same for his.

I always ordered red velvet and he always ordered, vanilla.

"Ready?" He asked.

"Yup."

We both grabbed our cupcakes and smashed it into each others mouths.

We just laughed, we sometimes act like five years old, but we've done this since we were toddlers. It's our thing.

"It's been a while since we've done this." I said.

"Yup, gotta love Cupcakes." He said as he grabbed frosting and rubbed it all over me.

"Jordan!"

"Oops, gotta blast." He said before making a run, I followed suit.

I caught up with him and jumped on his back. "Ha, caught you." I said as I hugged him.

"Time to get cleaned, and then maybe a movie?" He said.

"Sounds perfect."

Meanwhile in Trisha and Joey's place.

"Mom says to stop pacing, you will make a hole." Joey said to her.

"I can't, I've been carrying this for so long and I'm tired of hiding who I really am." She said as tears started to fall.

"Okay, what's wrong?"

"Let's go down and I will tell you all." She said before leaving the room with her.

Once down they gather aunt Malia and uncle Derek.

"I'm tired of hiding who I really am."

"What do you mean?" Aunt Malia asked.

"I like someone, and she's amazing."

"She?" Uncle Derek asked.

"I'm a lesbian, and I'm happy." Trisha said.

"Why did you kept this a secret? You know we would support you one hundred percent." Uncle Derek said to her.

"I was afraid."

"Well, we love you and your sister no matter what." Aunt Malia said to them.

"You twit, I'm your twin, never keep these stuff okay." Joey said to her as Trisha hugged her followed by their parents.

Another week went by, we call it quit this whole fake dating Jack. He finally confessed to Melanie and she was happy to be with him.

Now back to square one, alone with no boyfriend.

"Hey, Walker." I looked up to see Jordan holding ice cream and cookies.

"How about some ice cream and a movie with my favorite girl."

"Thought that was your girlfriend?"

"Oh no, no one will ever take your place, you're my number one girl." He said pinching my cheeks.

Then again, who needs a boyfriend when you have the best guy in the world as a friend.

"You're my number one guy too." I hugged him.

"Oh ice cream and cookies." Taylor came running towards us and sat in the middle of us.

We just looked at her.

"What, I love ice cream and cookies." She said innocently, we just chuckled.

We enjoyed watching the movie.

Is it bad that I want him to break up with Kathy?
