My Best Friend's Dad
What happens when you accidentally send a text to your best friend's dad that was not meant to be for his eyes?
Elona, who is eighteen, is on the cusp of a new chapter- her final year of high school. A dream she has her sights on becoming a model. But beneath her confident exterior lies a secret crush on someone unexpected- Mr. Crane, her best friend's father.
Three years ago, after the tragic loss of his wife, Mr. Crane, a painfully handsome man, stands as a hardworking billionaire, a symbol of both success and unspoken pain. His world intersects with Elona's through her best friend, their shared street, and his friendship with her dad.
One fateful day, a slip of a thumb changes everything. Elona accidentally sends Mr. Crane a series of revealing photos intended for her best friend. As he sits at the boardroom table, he receives the unexpected images. His gaze lingers on the screen, he has a choice to make.
Will he confront the accidental message, risking a fragile friendship and potentially igniting emotions neither anticipated?
Or will he grapple with his own desires in silence, seeking a way to navigate this uncharted territory without disrupting the lives around him?
This age-gap, forbidden, slow burn, suspenseful romance is filled with angst and tension.

Chapter: SwimmingElona's POVThe summer sun blazed overhead as I took a leisurely dip in the pool. The cool water caressed my skin, offering respite from the heat. I couldn't help but feel a sense of freedom and euphoria as I swam, my body moving effortlessly through the crystal-clear water.Crislynn was sprawled out on a sun lounger nearby, a book in hand but her attention far from its pages. Her auburn hair, pinned up into a messy bun and her sunglasses hid the knowing glint in her eyes. Tristan was out of my sight, lost in the grandeur of the luxurious house. I didn't like that Maggie was still here, but who am I to say anything when nothing is happening between Tristan and I?As I pushed myself through the water, my senses were heightened, attuned to the world around me. I couldn't help but feel a pang of disappointment because of Tristan and Maggie. That is when I heard the approaching footsteps from the house, each one echoing in the stillness of the afternoon. It was Tristan. My heart quickened

Chapter: DesiresTristan's POVI returned to my bedroom, my mind a whirlwind of thoughts. Elona's presence in the kitchen had ignited a storm of emotions, a relentless yearning I was determined to quell. She was very young, my daughter's best friend, and my closest confidante's child. Entertaining such desires was a dangerous game I couldn't afford to play.Maggie, the woman who had accompanied me home, had been patient enough. She was lying on the bed, her legs crossed sensually as she gazed at me with sultry eyes."What took you so long, Tristan?" she purred, her fingers tracing circles on the bedspread. "I have been waiting for you."I tried to push Elona's image from my mind as I approached Maggie, her alluring presence a stark contrast to the turmoil in my head. I leaned in to kiss her, but my heart wasn't in it. My thoughts were consumed by the young woman who I had just left in the kitchen.Maggie, direct and assertive, pulled away, her brows furrowing. "What is wrong? You have been acting so d

Chapter: CakeElona's POVI couldn't sleep for the rest of the evening. I am not sure how many rounds Mr. Crane went with whomever she was. I should not care because we wouldn't ever be together and it would be wrong. Mr. Crane can date whomever he wants and I do not have any say in that because I am his daughter's best friend and he is my dad's friend. I can only have feelings for him at a distance.Crislynn was fast asleep. I got out of bed and I walked out the bedroom, closing the door behind me. I was barefoot as I looked down the hallway. It was quiet. I tiptoed as I went to the kitchen. I looked inside the fridge, dressed in shorts and a tank top. What the hell do I eat? There was a bunch of veg and... I sighed as I went through everything. There was no fruit and then I closed the door of the fridge."Here," I jumped in fright. I turned around with my hand on my chest as my heart was beating wildly in my chest."Mr. Crane," I whispered. He was holding a banana out to me. I looked at him, he w

Chapter: Under The StarsElona's POVThe night air was cool and crisp as Crislynn and I sat on the steps of her house, staring up at the canvas of stars that stretched endlessly above us. The world around us was quiet, save for the occasional rustle of leaves and the distant chirping of crickets. It was the perfect backdrop for the kind of conversation only best friends could have.Crislynn turned to me, her eyes reflecting the distant stars. "You know, sometimes I feel like we are just tiny specks in the grand scheme of things, like those stars up there."I nodded, captivated by the depth of the night sky. "It's humbling, isn't it? We have all these dreams and plans, but in the grand cosmos, we are just a tiny part of it."Crislynn chuckled softly. "Yeah, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't chase our dreams with all our might. I mean, look at you, aspiring model extraordinaire!"I grinned, my heart warmed by her support. "And you, future world-changing journalist. We are going to make our mark on this world."

Chapter: New FriendElona's POVI was tossing and turning the entire evening because of the essay that Mr Crane wrote. Was he admitting his feelings for me? I tapped my pen on my creative writing book. I rewrote the essay in my own handwriting last night and I handed it in this morning. The students were chatting softly amongst themselves in class as Miss Johnson was going through papers as she sat behind her desk."I heard that our dad's are going to the bar tonight," Crislynn said softly. I looked over at her. She had a smirk on her face. "Do you want to sleep over tonight at my place?" she asked."I don't know if I should, I mean...I don't know if your dad would be okay with that," I replied.She scoffed, "My dad won't mind. You have slept over by me since we were little. What has changed now?" she smiled as if I was crazy.I shrugged. "We are older now, perhaps he wants you both to have your space.""Elona, you are sleeping over and I'm not taking no for an answer," she demanded.There was no way tha
