"You... what?" Cole's mouth was kinda hanging open as she laid it all on the line "You're not.... what? ..... And.... and I.. what?"

No way, there was no way this was happening. This had to be dream..... right? And she wasn't joking, even without the words being spoken, the look on her face was sincere. Slowly it all came together for him, and he shook his head a little as he came to the realization.

"But, we were drunk, and your ex... and the... Oh my god. I've been a huge idiot this whole time, haven't I? And the last couple weeks, all that weirdness between us... you were frustrated at [i]me[/i] right? Alex do you want to -!"

She completely cut him off by kissing him, softly latching her lips on to his. It wasn't a drunken make-out, or something she rushed into to prove a point. It was passionate, it was real.

Cole felt an immense wave of relief fall over him as he leaned in to the kiss, he wrapped his arms around her in a tender embrace. He was overwhelmingly happy in that moment to finally realize that the girl he'd liked since the moment they met, this amazing, wonderful woman that he had up on a pedestal of being unattainable for reasons outside of his control, his best friend, Alex Hawke, felt the same way about him.
