I looked towards where Lucian, my best-friend since childhood, leaned against a locker. My heart beat wildly as he looked towards my way, a smirk growing on his handsome face.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpQavr0BLia
I walked towards the coal-haired boy but stopped in my tracks when some girl threw herself over Lucian. I clenched my fists and tried to bury my jealousy and disgust at the sight. I only became even more pissed off when Lucian wrapped a sly arm around the girl’s waist.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKm9PONP7CH
“Lucian,” I hissed in annoyance, storming over to them. “Come on. Let’s go.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW40QIHRdOv
He only raised an eye-brow at my visible displeasure but gave in and followed me down the hallways of our school.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfexziXxy1n
“What’s up with you?” Lucian asked with a hint of amusement in his voice.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0hMvys36uA
“Nothing,” I snapped back.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBzgesVhhPN
Nothing. Haha. I wish it was nothing!I have a fucking crush on you! That’s what's up!
Lucian suddenly took hold of my wrist and spun me around to face him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmfq3U15v5
“Ethan! What’s wrong?” He asked, this time actually looking worried. “Did I do something wrong?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcyd2mRLna
I softened a little, feeling guilty. It’s not Lucian’s fault I have a stupid, hopless crush on him for a few seven years. “N-nothing. Just a bit cranky today.” I tried to get my wrist out of his tight grip but he wouldn’t budge, instead tightening it even more.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWGXaPyGBe
“Lucian, let go of me,” I said lightly. “Nothing’s wrong. You know I get sour.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCjfobtQL60
“Yeah, but there’s a reason why you’re sour,” he reasoned.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsgFCislGp
“Well, I can be sour whenever the hell I want to,” I said. “Now let go of my hand shit-head.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrIiqcKTmW
Lucian looked unconvinced but didn’t push further and dropped my hand.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7ZqvBk8Fj
“Okay then,” Lucian said hesitantly. I smiled softly.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6iZgxP3FXs
“I’m fine Lucian,” I reassured him. “Now come on! We have to get to class!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LSUlO0ijq
He let himself get dragged by me through the hallways. I suddenly let go of him and said, “Last one to class is straight!” And then I took off like my mom is chasing me with her belt.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfXPopwXg9
“You cheating son of a bitch!” Lucian screamed, running after me. It was no secret to the school that I was gay and that he was bisexual. Sometimes people stared at us in disgust and confusion, like we were some alien species. I just didn’t understand why, because we were human just like them.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3sjULQieD
Lucian and I burst into the classroom, almost breaking the poor door, and we collapsed on our seats breathing heavily.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp58rr3QDL9
“I definitely won that,” I said, panting like a dog.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2O5wP2HxU
“Boy, you wish,” he said. “Cheater.” We both exploded in hysterics and we fell to the floor clutching our stomachs. I didn’t even know what was so funny. All I knew was that everything becomes a hundred times funnier when you’re with your best friend.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYxh1FeoKZl
I looked up from where I was crouching on the floor to see Lucian, a thin coat of sweat covering his cedar brown skin, a gorgeous smile on his god-like face. I could feel a blush rising on my cheeks and I looked down, trying to hide it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhnqa8sipN
A hand took hold of my chin and tilted my face upwards, making me look into Lucian’s azure eyes. I stared closely at him and noticed an adorable, tiny, black mole on the side of his eye.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxB8H5FcDi3
Since when did he have a mole?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrzr2lz31z7
“You have a mole,” I blurted out. “You look cute with it.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumzVA0s10G
He smiled softly. “Do I?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOaPavUdyyk
I nodded, “I noticed it just now.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYA3qaSiAt8
He hummed in thought, staring into me. “I’ve always wondered what colour your eye actually was,” he mumbled. “They’re always so dark so I couldn’t figure it out. Now I know what the colour is.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTHIAFoGJLK
“Well, what colour is it then?” I asked, a small blush rising into my cheek. I looked away from his gaze, feeling slightly embarrassed.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUZVMCwepv
He turned my face back towards him, forcing me to look at him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ1lzMf0cso
“Blue,” he answered. He smiled at me, his eyes darkening a little. “A deep, deep blue.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv7yosu3VTl
The door slammed open, breaking our moment.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPVuDwc59gL
Was that even a moment?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUTUiYXwP0
Our Maths teacher, Mr. I-forgot-his-name stormed in, looking grumpy as ever and slammed his books down on the table.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3lkOog9Kpy
He wrote down something on the board.
Page 158 -Ex 19A - Questions 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12. . . . . . . 40
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIv7NNRlLnK
The teacher turned towards us, “Do this and don’t bother me! Also, Lucian, Ethan! Get up from the floor!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxKVg53J0mL
We rolled our eyes and got up, sitting in our seats and opening our books. It was only two minutes and both of us were already waving our white flags. We decided to eat our food without the teacher noticing us.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZH0PqOyBM
“Hey,” I whispered to Lucian, whose mouth is currently filled with Nutella pancakes. “What’s the teacher’s name again?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFmtONHLwu4
“Mr. Tandy.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZGjdxZXm3x
“Mr. Sandy?” I whispered, mimicking his lips with a raised eyebrow.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJWs5whMEU7
Lucian slapped his forehead and repeated, “Mr. Tandy.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5pDpGQALXu
“Mr. Dandy?” I tried again.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqkRpWy7PL
He groaned in annoyance and gritted out, “T-A-N-D-Y.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlS4lNih0pX
My mouth formed an O-shape and nodded at him. I coughed loudly to get the teacher’s attention. Lucian looked at me, confused at what I was upto.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSuAKAD1VE
“Um, sir, can my friend and I go to the sickroom? We’re not feeling well. I feel like I’m about to throw up.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHwwZoa02Dz
A look of understanding settled in Lucian’s eyes. “Yeah, I think we drank that expired milk in the morning.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjJR4ITm6dA
The teacher narrowed his eyes on the both of us. I put my acting skills to use and pretended to look uncomfortable, timidly rubbing my abdomen to get the effect right.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHf2djHMffu
“Fine,” the teacher grumbled. “Get out of here.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMdxbHIwVo
I sneakily grinned at Lucian and winked at him. I took his hand and both of us slowly limped out of the class. I turned to face the teacher and said, “Thank you Mr. D-A-N-D-Y.” Lucian muffled a laugh-shriek and hauled me out of the room.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk8vGJrAOeH
As soon as we were out we ran through the hallways until we were outside the school. We hid behind a wall so the gate-guard couldn't see us and we slipped past him and scaled the walls of the school easily. After all, practice makes perfect.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiLfHozKKS6
We got into my car which was parked near the wall we just jumped off, in case of emergencies. Lucian got into the driver’s seat and I got into the passenger seat. We stared at each other in silence. We lasted for about seven seconds before we both burst into laughter.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbA5gECOf1s
“Why the fuck would you call him Mr. D-A-N-D-Y?” he screeched at me. I wanted to say something but I kept on gasping and bursting into laughter. “You fucking dumbass!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXdqu6VrMiV
“B-but you said-” I spluttered, trying to get out a proper sentence. “Y-you said t-that was-” I let out a scream as I remembered the teacher’s face. “-you said that was h-his name!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7L1jORzQii
“Oh Holy mother of all things gay!” my idiot exclaimed. “I was spelling it out for you! AND I SAID MR. T-A-N-D-Y!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnkjit1Nvw
“How the heck was I supposed to know that!” I yelled back.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6WdHpqF1d
“I don’t if you’ve heard about it but there’s this thing called a brain–”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu01SMgmsgO
“Yeah, I know what that is, but mine doesn’t work!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgG8oa2Z0CY
“I doubt you had one in the first place!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp8DwAswloF
We ended up laughing for thirty minutes. My eyes were puffy and filled with tears by the time we stopped our fit.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXW6rNZ34nz
“Oh gosh,” I murmured, sinking into the seat, thankful that my lungs are working again. My mind was messed up with all that bullshit from before and I accidentally uttered, “I fucking love you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvxdidG054x
My eyes widened at what I said. I slowly turned in fear to see Lucian, his face similarly filled with shock. I waited for his reaction, dread slowly filling me. I let out a small exhale of relief when he smiled slowly. “I love you too bro.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeN9Obu9B3J
Bro. Did I just get bro-zoned? My heart broke into tiny pieces knowing that my love for him and his love for me are two very different things. I shakily smiled and leaned my head against the window as he drove through the streets endlessly, with no direction in mind.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbFRwRkYaMj
Yes, I loved him like a best-friend, but I knew what I felt for him. He was more than just a best-friend for me. No, it wasn’t some silly crush, I realised. I’m in love with him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBUjBrsWbQN
I didn’t know why. I didn’t know how. I just knew. I knew I loved him from his coal hair to the tip of his toes. I knew I loved his laugh. I knew I loved his adorable smile. I knew I loved his stupid jokes. I knew I loved his obsession with Nutella and his blabbering and that amazed look on his face when he sees fish or something he likes.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8L1TVynS0y
I. . . . I knew then, that my heart belonged to him. He held it in his hand but he didn’t even know it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Fyq4K2B1m
I wanted to tell him, I really did, but I was a coward. I didn’t want to lose what we had. I treasured what we were. So I silently gave him permission to break my heart as he pleases, even if he didn’t know it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZRZpu52PX
I turned to see Lucian’s face, now a calm and content look, as he drove through the familiar streets we always drove through when we ditched classes together. Even if I wasn’t in love with him romantically, I still would gladly walk through hell for that man. He would and will always be my best-friend. Nothing and no one would ever change that.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRT0ukhs8b
“Hey, Ethan?” Lucian called, glancing at me before looking back at the road.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhlA7vZ82bl
“Y-yeah?” I mumbled, breaking out of my thoughts.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXT8JIXFB06
“What are you thinking in that pretty little head of yours?” he asked, his lips tilting upwards in a small smile.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavIaAQlC1r
“Don’t even ask,” I replied, grinning at him. “You’d lose your remaining two brain cells trying to comprehend my wise, philosophical thoughts in that peanut-sized brain of yours.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaMNC2G8bs6
“At Least I have a brain,” he muttered.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJISFPQuNxW
“Pardon?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDV5ZbLM4b
“You heard nothing,” And then he smoothly changed the subject saying, “Also, Kasha’s having a party tonight. You comin’?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxfsB7j4xr
“You ask that as if you’re giving me a choice. If I refuse, you’d still drag me to that god-forsaken party anyway.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4ffjgNzzB
Lucian cackled and said, “You know me so well darling.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuctjMbRr7e
I made a face at the darling even though I was blushing a little.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLucsMVSYC
“Zisgasting!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0V7WfP4btL
“But you’re blushing,” he pointed out.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgLGfg74jf
“No, you’re just hallucinating like usual.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrJw8erXedo
We laughed and bickered all the way home. But my heart was heavy as the back of my mind kept reminding me that Lucian is never going to love me back the way I do.
* * *
I sighed, standing next to Lucian, dressed in black pants and a dark-red button down shirt.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLXRWISCYaZ
“This place is colossal,” I said, entering the mansion and looking around the dancing people and loud music.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu3kyUJLNsv
“I know right? Come on, let’s go get a drink.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvdmjaC5lSo
“You know my tolerance is shit Luce.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJc7JB554L
“Yeah, pretty much non-existent when you think about it.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq8cDRRSoxX
I rolled my eyes at him. He entwined my hand with him and dragged me to the bar. He never let go of my hand as he ordered mildly-strong cocktails. He sat down on the stool and pulled me into his lap, wrapping his arm around my waist.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbXkrH363AF
“What the-” I stuttered. “What are you doing?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXigFqkaXmv
“Sitting,” he replied. “Why are you so embarrassed? We do this all the time.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77wLwJUvBI
He was right, we did but it’s kind of different now. My stomach felt as if butterflies were stuck in them or something and my cheeks felt like they were burning. It felt weird. But it was a weird nice. But I felt scared too. When our drinks came I didn’t hesitate to down it in one go. Not a good idea as I almost choked. I let out a raspy sound as I placed my cup back on the table, the bartender re-filling it immediately.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyPgBACHMJK
“Drink it slowly,” Lucian said, his breath fanning my ear. I shivered at the feeling. I took my drink and drank it slowly this time. Some of the tension I didn’t even notice I had, eased from my shoulders.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxzCcqEMS03
“There we go,” Lucian crooned at me. “Loosen up Ethan, it’s a party.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb27ANLnEQu
“Okay,” I nodded, feeling breathless. And the both of us drank. Three cups turning into five. Five turns into I-can’t-even-remember and then we were on the dance floor. My arms around Lucian’s neck and his hands on my hips. We swayed to the music. One thing about Kasha was that she’s lesbian and homophobic people were out of her list so her parties were always nice and safe.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXWuIkDmbPy
I tilted my neck to look up at Lucian, feeling drunk. Everything was so woozy and wobbly and nothing made sense. “You fucking jerk,” I told him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFgEqBfzirt
He chuckled, looking only slightly tipsy. “What did I do now?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtVwq4Cgrmx
I glared up at him, his hands tightening on my hips as my legs started to feel shaky. “What did you do?” I asked incredulously. “You made me fall in love with you! And not how bros do! I fucking love you! I fucking love you so much, it’s so hard not to kiss you! And you don’t love me back! You don’t even know how I feel!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYynlmVaEr
I was down-right sobbing now. I couldn’t give a single fuck. He doesn’t love me back and that was all that mattered. I cried softly, letting my hands fall from his shoulders.
“You- You. . . l-love me?” I heard him ask in a shaky voice.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3gM2yFo6e
I choked on a laugh. . . or was it a sob? I leaned my head on his shoulder, letting my tears fall on his shirt. I felt tired. Very, very tired. And sleepy. And fucking heart-broken.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT8UzinRBPd
“Yeah,” I whispered. “I love you so much.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkycXXgO92
My heart ripped when Lucian didn’t answer. He only swung his arm under my legs and placed his other arm behind my back, carrying me in his arms. I felt him say something to someone and we were out into the night, the cold wind touching my teary face. My eyes started drooping and I silently cried myself to sleep in his arms.
* * *
I woke up the next day, feeling like someone slammed my head on a desk and repeatedly kept on whopping my head with a metal spatula, drowning me and then throwing me into a bed. I looked around to see I was in Lucian’s bed.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUsd6xNNkp
“Holy Goddess of lesbians,” I groaned. I was still in my outfit from yesterday but my socks and shoes were removed. The first three buttons of my shirt were unbuttoned but other than that, nothing else.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgf2v9gmTX7
The smell of pancakes wafted through the air and into my nose. I looked around and saw the beautiful, lovely, fascinating, pain-killers. I quickly swallowed them with some water and got out of the bed, holding the wall for balance. I walked into the bathroom and showered quickly.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLB3LilyA7m
I felt like I wasn’t remembering something. I remembered drinking, a lot, and then Lucian dragging me to the dance floor and. . . then. . . ugh! I can’t remember!
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJIOMzMB1tF
Damn, that alcohol really got to me.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ11ZEFc0OaB
I changed into some comfy clothes and I walked downstairs, still feeling as if something wasn’t right.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrBcfS39vf7
I saw Lucian plating the pancakes and pouring gallons of Nutella on them.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlcHrbWuAFa
“Hey Luce!” I greeted him, with a smile.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnO70KDxVLL
He returned my smile, a bit tight-lipped. “Hey, good morning.” An unsure, questioning look was in his eyes.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyKu1aZUJc
“What’s wrong?” I asked in confusion. I walked towards the fridge to get some orange juice.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlctx7h5hRy
“You really don’t remember?” he asked, sounding frustrated and disappointed. But why was he like this? I poured juice into the glass and lifted it up.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Rfsje0Ap6
“Remember wha–”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvGvjYaheE
A flurry of memories hit me in the head and I slammed my glass on the table, some of the juice spilling onto the marble top. My whole body started trembling and I leaned onto the countertop for support. My breathing started to elevate a little, I could feel my eyes darting back and forth.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHDcEDUPgat
“L-Lucian, I- I-” I sputtered, not knowing what to say. Should I lie?
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHqcpl5V2t
Yes, I should.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfoV2JJ7uc
“I was drunk!” I yelled, interrupting whatever he was going to say, “I- I- didn’t mean what I said! I was- I was not in a clear mind! It was just- It was the alcohol. I- I’m not- I’m not in love with you?” I mumbled the last part, sounding unconvinced myself.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgEJClBlWjJ
I had to get out of here real quick until I could formulate a convincing lie and a proper plan. I wordlessly speed-walked to the door and just as my hand was on the door knob I was spinned around by my shoulders and pinned to the wooden surface. I didn’t look up, avoiding Lucian’s eyes.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1jQgQNaFJ
“You were drunk,” he said, gripping my jaw hard and making me look at him. “But you weren’t that drunk. You knew damn well what you were saying and it wasn’t your tongue or the alcohol doing shit. Don’t lie to me, Ethan.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvkfT1MopG
“I’m not lying,” I choked out.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcm3HV6FdB8
“But your fingers always twitch when you’re lying,” he pointed out smugly. I glanced down to see my fingers were indeed shaking, violently. “Don’t you dare lie to me Ethan, I’ve been your best-friend for ten years. I know you.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXr8wPf4Ol
I clenched my fists and let out a shaky breath, deciding to give up. I might as well do it here and now so that I could end this shit-show of me hopelessly loving him and him not even knowing it.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gd8UoxGP6
“Fine,” I breathed. “Fine. I do love you. Have been for seven whole years. I meant what I said.” I looked up at him, staring into those pretty eyes. “I meant each and every single word. I fucking love you Lucian.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCc5flxvwR
Those eyes looked startled and. . . . happy? I don’t even know anymore.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ62xPf0bCs0
“Look, I understand if you’re weirded out or something,” I began, “but please Lucian, don’t leave me. I only have you, I don’t want to lose you. I love you, romantically, yes, but I also love you because you’re my best-friend and I–”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMwWmyruIf
I was cut off by Lucian kissing me on the lips. I let out a surprised yelp and tried to push him away but he only grabbed my hands and pinned them beside my head.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6XLKxhRID
What is happening? Did I get so wasted yesterday that I died and now I’m in heaven? Oh Lord, heaven feels so nice—
I FUCKING CAN’T BELIVE HE’S KISSING ME! HE’S KISSING ME! MY BEST-FRIEND IS KISSING ME–
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1TH6eS2ANH
My internal crisis was interrupted by Lucian licking my bottom lip, asking for entrance. I gave in to him and opened my mouth, feeling his tongue entwine with mine. I responded back to the kiss with equal passion, ripping my wrists off his hold and gripping the soft hair at the back of his head. One of my hands went to his shoulders and pushed him closer to me, my back pressed against the door.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ545RNbndIm
We broke the kiss to get enough air and breathed hard, our exhales coming out in harsh pants.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREBujF1xlM
I leaned my head against the door, clenching my eyes shut, “Fuck, shit, give me a minute. I can’t think straight.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKHI4u2Gf79
Lucian let out a small laugh, “Yeah, no shit sherlock. You’re gay as a fucking pancake. You’re bendy and you taste nice.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMITk3yS2q2
We both burst into hysterical laughter, collapsing to the floor, still holding each other. We laugh a lot.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkQzkROaIhK
“Does this mean you like me back?” I asked with hope.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjiVrVkfcKe
“Boy, I don’t like you,” he replied. My heart stopped beating. “I fucking love you!” Holy fuck, I died for a second there.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3D39DkH4JW
A bright grin was etched on his face and I grinned with him, unable to stop myself.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBomP7Vsorj
He loves me back.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCey7xqtJOF
I grabbed his neck and kissed him again, this time slow and sweet. I felt like I was still drunk when he kissed me back. This man’s gonna kill me.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v6LfiDVJg
“I love you best boy friend,” I said.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQiCOp5lnHd
“What?” he asked in amusement.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjCoOerc2tA
“Boyfriend and best-friend and bam! Best boy friend!”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDzfNw0r4F0
He laughed and looked at me with so much love in his eyes and he replied, “I love you too, best boy friend.”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22REOwPhoJ
I felt so fucking HAPPY! It’s like I was gonna burst out of joy and I love it. I really, really love it. Just as much as I love Lucian.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡocLTIcnAun
“Um, Ethan?” Lucian asked.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YVgpwfUzX
“Yeah?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvL35bF4RJ
“Like, uh, no homo though, right?”
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEJAqRHaFZ
I stared at him, gawking, but he started laughing like a choking pterodactyl and I joined him a few moments later. Even if we love each other romantically, one thing will stay the same. Lucian is my annoying best-friend and I fucking love him.
121Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAHOqYdavXL
Hm, guess that’s two things.
