Alex gave Cole a big kiss, still incredibly excited over the win.  When she pulled back, she said gratefully, "Gosh it feels so good to kiss you whenever I want!"

She grabbed his hand tightly, possessively as she led him out of the gymnasium.  They walked and talked on their way back to campus, never separating from each other and sharing the occasional kiss here and there.  After the big misunderstanding was cleared, it was a relief for Alex that things went so smoothly.  She even forgot that Cole still needed to break up with Chelsea.

Alex ended up leading them back to the restaurant they had his interview at.  "Figured this would be a nice place.  This is where we started our friendship.  I figured we could start our relationship here.  Thoughts?"
