Somehow Chapter 6

"I haven't had this much fun in years!" I yelled over the wind. Drake was driving us to the city in his convertible.
     "Oh, yeah? You think this is fun? Just wait till we get to the city!" and he drove a little faster.
     "Oh!" I gasped, "I love this song!" and I turned up the radio and started singing along to 23 Days by SHeDAISY.
     "You have a good voice, Bea!" Drake told me.
     "Thanks," I laughed.
     "You don't mind me calling you Bea, do you?"
     "Nope," I said.
     "Great," he said, smiling. He stopped at a red light and leaned over. I knew what was coming, so I leaned over as well. Our lips met softly.
     "Whooo!" a male voice said from the car next to us. We broke apart and looked over.
     "Josh!" Drake yelled.
     "Josh Peck?" I gasped.
     "Hey, Drake!" he said. "I haven't seen you since the last episode. How's it going?"
     "Well, Beatrice here," he looked over, and saw me shaking me head violently, and changed gears, "is one of my friends I met."
     "You didn't look like just friends," he said.
     "Maybe, maybe not," I said.
     The light turned green, and we drove away, Drake promising he'd call Josh later.
     "Are we a couple?" I asked.
     "I don't know. I want to, Beatrice. I really love you," and with his right hand he stroked my face. I nuzzled into his hand. "I love you, too, Drake," I said. He smiled. "Then maybe we are," he said. I smiled back. "Yeah," I said.
