My Bestfriend's Brother novel Chapter 6

Anything interesting you want to tell me?"Anna asked one day as I was making her hair.

"Nope"

"But you've been spending a lot of time outside and without me."she whined

"Because I have been practicing with the team which you should also be doing if you stop spending the whole day with Jason."

"I can't help it when he's so cute and I don't spend the whole day only few hours."she said

"Yea sure"

"How's practice then?"

"Okay,I'm playing defense."

"That's good.my team leader suggested I run in the relay,but I'm not so sure about it."

"You'll do just fine, trust me."

"Thanks."

The competition was starting next week so by the weekend the representatives from the other schools would be arriving since they'd be sleeping over at ours.

"Daniel said westwood high is among the schools coming." Anna informed me.

"That's the school close to us right?"I asked

"Yes."

I wasn't sure what the history was and not that I care, it was their feud not mine.

"He also said to meet him at the spot." She added.

Anna, Daniel and I had a particular place we went to which was created by their parents for them so it was safe to say they receive special treatment around here. I was just lucky to be friends with them.

Recently, Daniel and I have been spending lots of time together since I told him he knew nothing about me so he was making up for it.

"Why didn't you say so sooner?"I asked as I quickly stood up thankfully I was done with her hair.

"So you would leave my hair half way?No thanks."

"Traitor." I murmured but I'm sure she heard because she smiled at me.

"Bye see you later." I said as I left

"I was just leaving,I thought you were not coming." Daniel said immediately he saw me.

"Sorry, she just told me now."

"Oh.What were you doing before?"

"Making her hair."

"Make sense,she doesn't want you to leave it half way."

"Trust me I would've,she's lucky she's smart." I told him and he agreed.

He led me to where the chair was and we started talking about different things excluding Tessa,Gideon or our kiss.I still did not mention that I saw him kiss Tessa twice.

"So anything new I should know about?"

"Well...no except you are interested in my social life." I said.

"I am interested in all areas of your life, you know it." My chest can't contain how happy I was when he said so.

"Aguyinmyclassaskedmeout." I rushed out

"Can you maybe go a little faster?"He asked and I could tell he was being sarcastic.

"A guy in my class asked me out." I repeated as I turned to see the expression on his face.But I couldn't tell if he was sad or angry as all the smiles on his face had disappeared.

"What?why......not why, when?"

"Yesterday"

"What did you tell him?Who is he?" I was definitely not answering the latter

"Yes." l lied wanting to get a reaction

"Why would you say yes?"

"Because I can and Anna has a boyfriend and I need one too".

"Doesn't mean you accept any boy who asks you." He argued.

"But he's not just any boy." I was pushing his buttons and I knew it.

"So who is he?" His voice was low this time.

"The boy."

"Okay." He said and started walking away.I have passed the limit

"Where are you going?" I asked standing up too

"My hostel." He answered

''You can't be serious."

"Really." He wasn't stopping.

"I was just joking Dee,I told him no." Why would I say yes when I'm still waiting for you.I wanted to add but held back.

He paused but did not turn back.I was only pulling your legs which turned out to be a bad thing.I continued and this time,he turned to face me.

"Don't joke with things like that."

"Why?"

"Because..."

"That's not even a reason." I wanted to shout but said it as calmly as I could manage to.

The next second,his lips found mine for the second time this term and this time,I didn't bother fighting for dominance because it was certain he was going to win.

Our lips moved in perfect sync, that is until his phone rang and we had to separate with both of us breathing heavily.In my mind I was surely not blessing the person right now.

"It's my mom." He said answering my unasked question so maybe I was blessing her she could be my mother in-law in the future who knows.

"Oh okay."

"I hope that's reason enough?" He was referring to the kiss and it definitely was.

"I have to pick it and we can spend the whole day,so I'll see you tomorrow." He said and kissed the top of my head.

I stayed a little longer at the spot as I wanted to arrange my thoughts like where does this leave us now?What about Tessa? But when I couldn't find a reasonable answer,I left.

"Details now." Anna attacked me as soon as I opened the door.

"What are you talking about?" I asked.

"The fact that you are smiling more than usual and swollen lips is something else you want to tell me."

"Since you know so much I'm sure you'd figure out the rest on your own."
