Cody And Me
Cody and Me

Chapter 1

I thought about him as this kind soul who was never mean to me. At times, I would just picture nothing but his face. I would probably have some really stupid dreamy expression on my face. I could just remember his brown hair and eyes. His perfect freckles. His pale skin. I remember dreamily thinking Cody… I was in love. I was more than in love, I was obsessed.

I was sitting on the multicolored bench of pastel shades, next to my friend. My strawberry blonde hair blew in the wind. My icy blue eyes captured the image of my friend. She had stripes of dirty blonde hair mixed in with her perfect blonde pulled back in a tight ponytail. She too had glittering, Icy blue eyes.

“I have a crush,” I declared.
“Oh my God! Who is it!?” Eve squealed. Her voice was so high pitched it nearly gave me a headache.
“Cody!” I confidently answered. I had been excited about spilling the beans.
“You should go for it!” Eve not so suggested.
“Yeah, I'm going to!” I agreed. A wide grin spread across my face as I spoke eagerly.

After school I messaged Cody on Kids Messenger. I asked him if he wanted to play in the bush across the road from my house. He didn't reply. I tried again and again every day. I began to get frustrated, I was spamming him, my blue bubble not getting the Gray response. I felt upset that he wasn't responding. I just wanted to express my feelings to him.

Chapter 2

“Can I play inside?” Cody asked at My front door. His voice is kind, he suggests things genuinely.
“Let me ask my parents” I quickly ducked away from the door to ask Dad. I was smiling one of my genuine smiles, not the forced ones that look like I'm about to murder someone. When I returned I said, “yes you can.” I also talked kindly, but my voice was a more memey kind of one.

He stepped inside. “Let's go out the back” Cody said. “I wanna have a lightsaber battle with your brother.” I just wanted to hang out with him. Me and AG used to have so much fun with him. Now he only hangs out with my brother.

Cody and Jayden were outside on the grass while I watched them use toy lightsabers to pretend to fight. I watched Cody's blue one zoom around, sometimes hitting up against Jayden's blue lightsaber. All you needed was for the lightsabers to glow, one a bad guy, the other a good guy and a dark mood for this to be real.

When Jayden lost a battle, I took the opportunity to talk with Cody.

“Cody… Can we talk in private?” I nodded towards the Car port that was right next to us. It, like usual, held the trailer. We never used the trailer though.
“Of course we can talk” Cody led me to the car port. I felt content in his company.

When we arrived there, I looked up into his sparkling brown eyes. “I- I love you…” I whispered. Warmth flooded my face and I bet I was beet red.
Cody looks startled by what I had said. “I was not expecting that” He said honestly with a chuckle. His voice was slow, but still kind and respectful.
“Can we date?” I asked hopefully.
“Yes,” Cody answered.

I wave my hands and jump up and down on the spot excitedly. “Yay!” I squeal excitedly. Jayden was probably very confused because I wasn't trying to hide my celebration. I usually celebrated like that, I didn't care too much what people thought of me.

Chapter 3

I messaged him, saying that I wanted to play across the road from my house. He said that he'll be there as soon as he can. I got my shoes on to get ready. I'm so excited, I haven't told my parents yet because I think like a Gacha Character.

He arrived at my front door after about a minute. “Ready to go?” Cody asked me. I had fallen in love with his voice. He was just so dreamy.
“Yeah,” I said, opening the screen door. I was more casual, I didn't show the timidness that people say you should experience on your first date. Well, this is the closest to what could be a date since I don't want my parents to find out...
