《Best friends To Lovers ✔️》Chapter 22

*Edited*
The next day was Sunday so I decided to text the girls and see if they wanted to hang out. Brennan was going to ask Zeke too but decided that we should all do something together as a group. We texted into our group chat to see what everyone wanted to do.
We ended up on deciding to just hang out at Zeke's house. His parents were away for a month so he said he didn't mind the company.
"We should stop by Walmart and buy some snacks." I said to Brennan while we were eating breakfast. "That's a good idea baby. Hey you wanna go to your house now so you can get ready?" Oh shoot. I forgot I was still in his shirt from last night.
Walking over to my house, I noticed my parents cars were gone. Just the usual. Brennan's were gone too so I presume they're still working on merging the companies.
I ran upstairs and had one of the shortest showers ever. I didn't want to dress you fancy so I just got into something casual and comfy.
I didn't bother with any makeup because everyone there has already seen me with no makeup. And not to brag or anything, but I think I look better without makeup.
Brennan was downstairs in the kitchen when I was done getting ready. "Ready to go?" I asked him, grabbing two cereal bars out of the pantry for us since we only really had a small breakfast. "Yeah. Let's go."
I gave him the cereal bar in the car. "Thank you baby." He said and gave me a kiss on the forehead too.
Fifteen minutes later, we pulled in to Walmart. It was later than I thought it was. It was already two o'clock. We definitely woke up too late.
Waking in to Walmart, we went straight for the snacks. We got some potato chips, sweets and drinks. Brennan wanted to buy alcohol but we're only 18 plus we have school in the morning.

We went to the checkout. The cashier was around our age. She was shamelessly flirting with Brennan. So I put an arm around his waist and kissed his jaw to make her understand that he's taken.
I hate desperate girls.
We were the last ones to show up to Zeke's house. Him and Emma were cozied up on the couch while the girls sat on the floor.
Zeke's house is so cool. In his basement, he converted into a game room/ a cinema room. So that's where we went.
We laid all the snacks that all of us brought out on to the floor. You could feed a whole country with all the food we got.
The boys went and played pool while me and the girls sat at the couch talking.
Emma has already told us all about her date but we wanted to know more.
"You dirty dog. You were here first. Have you even went home?" Brielle asked her. "Oh shut up. Yes I was the first one here and no I haven't been home since Saturday. Eekkkkk." Wow. This had all of us squealing. The boys looked over at us with a questioning stare. We just shrugged our shoulders and they went back to their game.
"Seriously. What the hell did you tell your parents?" I asked her. "I did feel bad about lying so I just told them the truth. They didn't really care. They really like Zeke and think he's good for me. Apparently my dad is best friends with his dad. Like how did I not know that?" "That's good though. Your parents and his parents will trust ye together so you can stay here as much as you want ahh." I said to her.
"Yeah. It's been great the past few days. But I need to go home tonight. Could one of ye give me a ride?" Before the girls answered, I got in there first telling her me and Brennan would bring her home. I wanted some more goss.

Until around five, the boys were finishing up plying pool when we finished a movie we put on.
"Hey girls. What do you want to eat? Is pizza good?" Zeke asked us. "I don't mind." "Yeah." "I live pizza." "Sure." They were the four responses he got from all four of us.
Thirty minutes later, the door bell rang. Zeke ran upstairs after we all gave him money for the pizza. Brennan took a seat beside me and intertwined our fingers.
"Damn. Who knew you girls could eat like that." Brennan said to us after we finished three full pizzas to the four of us, while the boys only shared one pizza. We all just shrugged, not embarrassed by what he said.
We watched one more movie before the first person left. Brielle and Stephanie apparently had work to do so we let them go. Something seemed off though.
A few minutes after they left, I told Brennan I was getting tired and that I wanted to go.
"Hey Em. You ready to go?" I asked her when I was ready to leave. "Yeah. I just need to get some stuff from Zeke's room." Zeke looked surprised that she was leaving. "I'll come up with you." Zeke said to her. Probably wondering why she wasn't staying.
"I didn't know we were bringing her home." Brennan said to me when they went upstairs. "You don't mind do you? She asked for a ride and I said we wouldn't mind. Plus I thought we could get some juicy gossip from her." I said to him, wiggling my eyebrows. "You're so nosey." "But you love me." I said cheekily to him. "That I do." And then he kissed me.
"Break it up lovebirds." Emma said coming down the stairs. "Shut up. Thanks for having us Zeke. See you tomorrow." I said giving him a hug. Brennan went up to him and said bye and gave him a bro hug.
Emma glared at us, as if she was telling us to leave with her eyes. "Em, we'll be in the car." I said, grabbing Brennan's hand and pulling him to the car.
"Why'd you do that?" He's so clueless. "It was obvious she wanted to kiss him but didn't want us there." I said to him, like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
A few minutes later, Emma came out to the car, all flushed.
"What's got you all red?" I teased her. "Shut up. And don't think I don't know why you said you'd give me a ride home. We kissed on Friday. Kay? And then when I stayed in his house, he said I could sleep in his bed while he slept in the guest room but I said no so we slept in the same bed." She said to us blushing. "Ha. I knew it. That's good though. Already coming so far in your relationship." She's honestly the easiest person to tease.
"Whatever. Oh look. There's my house. Thanks for the ride Brennan. See ye tomorrow." I never realised how close they live to each other.
After we dropped her off, we went home.
Tonight though, Brennan went to his house while I went to my own.
We weren't fighting or anything, but according to his dad, we're 'spending too much time together.'
What bullshit.
So that night. I barely slept. I couldn't sleep without Brennan. And I know he can't sleep without him.
I guess we're just going to have to ignore his father from now on.
Here's to a sleepless night.
Typical.
I have school in the morning.
I'll be running on coffee then.
