Chapter Six

Sabrina’s POV

Even after realizing that I liked my best friend, I didn't think I'd ever tell him. He liked someone else. It was his first time liking someone, and I didn't want to ruin this for him. I had thought about telling him at the homecoming dance, but I probably shouldn't. He'd be there with his date, the girl he liked.

I decided not to tell him. Ever.

As much as I wanted to confess my feelings and live happily ever after with him, this was reality. All I wanted was to stay

Maybe I'd spent so much time wishing he'd say my name that I'd finally started hearing it everywhere.But then he looked directly at me.And I knew.This wasn't a dream."I wanted you to find love yourself, but seeing you with another guy hurts."My mouth fell open.Wait.What?He was talking about me.He was actually talking about me."Rowan here planned that it would be best if we made you jealous so you could figure out whether you really liked me. Let's face it, that wasn't a great plan. I was the one who got jealous."I stared at him, trying to process his words.Rowan and Peyton had been trying to make me jealous?All this time?And he was jealous of Co

    Chapter FifteenSabrina's POVHaving Corey as a big brother is probably one of the best things that has ever happened to me.He's basically my best friend, but, you know, a brother-best friend. Is there such a thing? Because most brothers and sisters fight a lot, and I know that because if you had neighbors like mine, you would understand.Seriously, some siblings fight like they're in a boxing match. One minute they're screaming at each other, and the next, they're sharing food like nothing happened.But Corey and I? We're different.We tease each other, make fun of each other, and occasionally threaten to punch each other in the face, but at the end of the day, he's always there for me.And I'm always there for him.I may not have succeeded in getting the person I love, but at least I have the brother I've always wanted.That's good enough for me.Right?I mean, who needs a boyfriend when you have a brother who can act like your boyfriend whenever you need him to? Someone who drives

  • Bestfriends by choice   Chapter Fourteen - The Closest Thing to Losing Her

    Chapter FourteenPeyton's POVThe next morning, I woke up thinking about Sabrina.Again.Honestly, I was beginning to think my brain had forgotten how to function without her occupying at least ninety percent of it.For the past month, I'd made it a habit to check whether Corey was taking her to school and whether she was getting home safely.I trusted Corey. I really did.But Sabrina was Sabrina.I'd been looking out for her for years, and it wasn't something I could suddenly stop doing just because another guy had started spending more time with her.Besides, I wasn't ready to let go of the little things that made me feel like I still had a place in her life.That morning, though, something was different.She was walking alone.I spotted her while driving to school and immediately pulled over beside her.“Want a ride to school?” I offered.She smiled at me.“No.”Just like that.I stared at her, trying not to look disappointed.“Is this because of yesterday?” I asked.“No, I just re

    Chapter ThirteenPeyton's POVI thought the worst part of loving Sabrina was keeping it a secret.I was wrong.The worst part was watching her slowly slip away from me while I stood there pretending I was okay with it.It started with a text.A simple message that shouldn't have meant anything.But somehow, it managed to ruin my entire evening.I was sitting in my room when my phone buzzed. I immediately checked the screen, hoping it was Sabrina.It was Sabrina.For a second, I smiled.Then I read her message.She was going somewhere with Corey to take pictures.And she wouldn't be going home with me.I stared at my phone, reading the message again as if the words might magically change.They didn't.I told her to text me every minute.Okay, maybe that was a little excessive.But I just wanted to know she was safe. I wanted to know she was having fun. I wanted to know she was thinking about me, even if it was only enough to send a quick message.I waited.And waited.And waited some m

  • Bestfriends by choice   Chapter Twelve - A Plan Gone Wrong

    Chapter TwelvePeyton's POV“First, tell her you're going to homecoming with me. Try not to spend too much time with her before next week's dance to make her jealous. And lastly, tell her it didn't work out between us two or three days before the dance.”Rowan explained the plan as if she were telling me what she wanted for lunch.I stared at her, trying to process everything she'd just said.Was this really the best plan she could come up with?I mean, I knew I wasn't exactly an expert when it came to love, but pretending to date my best friend's friend just to make her jealous? That sounded like something straight out of a teenage drama.Then again, my life had practically become one already.“Are you sure this is a fail-proof plan?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.“Of course! This should be easy,” she replied confidently.I wasn't convinced.Not even a little.But Rowan seemed so sure of herself that I decided to trust her. After all, she was the one who had encouraged me to do someth

    Chapter ElevenPeyton’s POVYears ago, I met the person who changed my life. The girl who stole my first kiss. Who am I kidding? We stole each other's first kiss.Years later, I got to know who she really was. People assume that no one's perfect, but I can tell you that she's probably the closest thing to perfection. There's just one thing she needs to be truly perfect.My surname.I know her like the back of my hand. When I saw her for the first time, I saw love. When I first held her hand as I dragged her out of the closet, I felt love. And even after all this time, she's still the one I love.“You love her, don't you?”I heard Rowan say as she watched me stare at Sabrina.“What? What do you mean?” I denied it, pretending I didn't know what she was talking about.“Don't deny it. I can see it with my own eyes. And being the love expert that I am, I can tell she doesn't know. But what's stopping you?” she asked curiously.“I'm the only guy she's ever had in her life. If I tell her, she
