《Best friends To Lovers ✔️》Chapter 23

*Edited*
The next morning I woke up a bit late. I was lucky I showered last night. At least I don't have to waste the little time I have on a shower.
Before I go downstairs for breakfast, I got dressed. I decided that today I wanted to dress up a bit. Staff the week off right. I got into this cute green dress. I put my white sneakers and a cream cardigan on with the dress.
Cute yet simple.
It seems like nearly every morning I go downstairs, my parents are nowhere to be seen. I understand they're working, but what about me?
I'm lucky I have Brennan because if I didn't, I'd be so lonely.
I made myself some pancakes for breakfast. Brennan texted me saying his mom made breakfast and to go over but I didn't see it until I started making my own food. So I texted him back saying it was fine and that I made my own and I'd see him soon.
Twenty minutes later, I had my breakfast eaten, cleaned up the mess I made and was sitting at the island waiting for Brennan to collect me.
When I heard the honk of a car horn, I grabbed my things, locked the front door and went outside.
Getting in the car, I greeted Brennan with a kiss on the lips. "Hi baby." He said to me, nuzzling his face in my neck. "I missed you." It came out muffled.
Pulling up to school, I saw Emma and Zeke cozying up to each other. Stephanie and Brielle were whispering into each other's ears. There is definitely something going on that they're not telling us.
The day went by slowly. Nothing exciting happened. Thankfully I didn't have much homework to do. So when I was finished the bit I was given, I decided to call Brielle and see what was going on with her. Afterwards I was gonna call Stephanie.

"Hey! What's going on with you."
"Nothing much. I just finished up my homework. Is everything ok? You never call me just one to one."
"Yeah everything's fine. I just wanted to see how you were. I just noticed that you and Steph have gotten closer lately."
"Yeah well I mean you have a boyfriend now and so does Emma. It's just us too left so we have been hanging out together more."
"Is that all? Nothing else going on? You know you can tell me anything."
"Yes Liv. I know that. And no there's nothing more going on between us. If there was, you'd be the first to know."
"Ok. I believe you. Hey I gotta go. Dinners ready"
"K. I'll see you tomorrow. Bye."
And with that, she hung. She was definitely lying. I could hear it in her voice. Now to call Stephanie.
"Hey Steph!"
"Hey Oli!! What's up?"
"Nothing much. Just wanted to talk to you."
"It's just weird you rang just me."
"I was just going to say that I noticed how close you and Brielle were getting to each other. Is anything going on?"
"What do you mean Oli? You think we're together?"
"Well I mean you do spend loads of time together. And ye are always whispering and giggling."
"Yeah we're hanging out more. But that's because you and Emma have boyfriends now. We have each other. Look Oli, I'm sorry but I have to go. My moms calling for me. See you tomorrow."
I didn't even get to answer her back before she hung up. Weird. They are so together. I'll catch them out soon.
I texted Brennan to see if it was ok if I could go over and he said yes. Our parents still weren't home and he had to cook dinner for Amanda so I didn't mind going over and helping.

Later that night, we were lying in Brennan's bed. "Somethings going on between Stephanie and Brielle. I can feel it." I said to him after a moment of silence. "And how do you know that?" "Well I rang the both of them and asked them and they were definitely lying to me. They said they're spending more time together because me and Emma have boyfriends now." "Maybe it's true." He defended them. "Nope. Definitely not true. And I'll catch her them out. It's Brielle's birthday party on Friday so I might catch them out then." Brennan sighed. "Baby. Please don't meddle. If you see something don't go around telling everyone ok? Tell me but no one else. They obviously don't want this getting around." Damn. "You're right. You're always right."
With that conversation done, I kissed his lips and snuggled into his chest, falling asleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next few days dragged on. Very slowly.
It's Friday now and it's Brielle's 18th birthday. She's having a party tonight at her house. It's going to be great.
Me and Brennan bought her a charm bracelet with an 18 charm on it. I also made a picture frame with a shit ton of pics of all of us. I hope she likes it.
After school, we all went over to Brielle's house to get ready. And by all, I mean the boys too. She let them use a spare bedroom to get ready.
I kept my outfit sexy. All for Brennan.
I paired my outfits with a pair of black stilettos.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The party was in full swing at 9. Every senior of our school was here.
Me and Brennan were out on the dance floor dancing. Well more like grinding on each other.
I turned my back to him, his hands went around my waist to pull me closer to him, while I put my arm around his neck.
He leaned down to my neck, and started leaving kisses everywhere. No doubt leaving hickies behind too.
I pulled him away from the dance floor to get a drink.
When we made it to the kitchen, it was empty. He pushed me up against a wall and started kissing me again. He then wrapped his arms around my legs.
"Jump." He whispered in my ear.
I was straddling his waist now. He walked me over to the counter and put me down. I started kissing and sucking all over his neck. Leaving my own mark on him.
I jumped when I heard someone clear their throat.
Standing at the doorway, was Emma and Zeke.
I got down off the counter and straightened out my skirt.
"I'm gonna go use the bathroom." I said, wanting to get away from this awkward situation. "Be careful." Brennan said to me, not affected by getting caught. Unlike me.
Walking up the bathroom, I saw multiple people making out. But two people looked very familiar.
They turned around and I couldn't help the gasp that escaped my lips.
They looked as shocked as I was.
I couldn't believe it.

This one is for my daughter. She talked me into it (again) and it is her favorite genre of books. So, Bet, this one is for you. The true-bloods, the masters, they came first. That was hammered into Heath's head since he could walk with both words and fists by Karen. As a guardian and half-blood bastard of his vampire father, he would never know peace. His duty as a dhampir, his duty was clear, his fate sealed. Heath was to serve Gerald, an aging Vampire Lord, one who was of pure blood, born to the race, until Heath outlived his prime and then he would pass on the knowledge that was passed to him onto a new bastard to carry protecting the bloodline. But was it necessarily his fate? Could a sterile half breed such as himself, someone who did not exist in the human world, live anywhere in the world on the light? After a particularly nasty encounter with his Mentor, Heath is on the run. Set on not becoming the new guardian and knowing that decision has now marked him for death. The hunt is on and somewhere behind him is Joshua, the heir of his Master, and the thing that plagues his nightmare, his Mentor Karen.
