I open my mouth to say something — to defend myself so he doesn't think something is going on between River and me — but suddenly, I hear Cortney's voice.

"Chancé?"

My body goes still.

I am in hot soup.

I turn my gaze at her as she walks and stands beside Ricky.

"What are you doing here?"

I swallow hard. I don't know what to say. I've been caught. This is over. Everything is.

"She's with me." Ricky's voice is steady as he chimes in to save the day. "I called her here to practice our lines," he

  • Craving My Best Friend’s Brother   I Owe You One 

    I open my mouth to say something — to defend myself so he doesn't think something is going on between River and me — but suddenly, I hear Cortney's voice."Chancé?"My body goes still.I am in hot soup.I turn my gaze at her as she walks and stands beside Ricky."What are you doing here?"I swallow hard. I don't know what to say. I've been caught. This is over. Everything is."She's with me." Ricky's voice is steady as he chimes in to save the day. "I called her here to practice our lines," he says, but his eyes never left mine.I nod quickly. "Yes. He… texted me to come. And I also thought of surprising you.""Right..." Cortney's eyes go from mine to Ricky's.Ricky grabs my hand quickly. "We'll be in my room."He drags me back up, and I see the look on Cortney's face. The same look I hate to see. That smirk.As we walk through the hall, with his hand still holding mine, he whispers to me, "Start talking."Ricky finally lets go of my hand, opens the door to a room, and makes me enter

    "You did a good job with the water and towel formula, young woman. His fever is down. Mr. Dawson will be alright. Just a little more sleep, and he'll be awake."The doctor reaches into his bag and pulls out a notepad and pen. He scribbles something inside, then tears the page and hands it to me."You can have the maid go to the pharmacy to get this prescription. Have him use it, and he'll be back on his feet in no time.""Thank you, doctor," I say.He nods."I'll see you out."My mind still rings back to the name he called earlier. When he said it — the way he said it — it felt like that girl meant more than just one of the girls he once had a fling with.But I push it aside. He was burning so I just went into action.I found a small towel in his wardrobe, went to his bathroom for cold water, and patted his body with it — like giving him a little bath. The air conditioner stayed on the whole time, and he was also out of his blanket.I had to get the maid involved to call the doctor to

    My mind through the entire class is on River Dawson's betrayal. I don't even know what the teacher is talking about. My eyes are on the board, but my mind is going over his words again and again.I mean, how could I ever trust him again? This isn't the first time he's said something and didn't come through. Although yesterday was fun. He was nice. Vulnerable. That's the longest we've ever talked — and it wasn't about sex.But who was I kidding? I fell for his stupid charm again."Chancé." I feel a shake and turn to Cortney. "What are you thinking about?""Uh?""The class is over. It's time for drama class. We have interaction, remember?" I gasp. "You forgot?""I forgot." I nod slowly. "How could I have forgotten?" I mean, I know how, but... how? I sigh. "Let's go.""Are you not excited? You're Gwen. You should be excited. So many people wanted that role." She lowers her voice. "And you know who is still angry about it."I groan. I don't want to even think about Sasha. Speaking of whic

  • Craving My Best Friend’s Brother   Damn you, River Dawson. Damn you.

    ***~~~CHANCÉ~~~***The rain has finally stopped falling. I turn to my back and take a deep breath. It was a good sleep. I wonder if he also had a good one. After a few moments of my mind roaming and finally settling, I get out of bed.The time reads 7:30 a.m. I quickly clean myself up and get ready for school. Then I leave my room. I move to Mave's and raise my hand to knock — but I hesitate. I don't want to disturb him. But he said he has training by 8 and needed to go home to get his uniform. So I finally do it.I knock. No answer.I knock again. When I don't hear anyone's voice, I open the door and step into a neatly empty room. The bed is laid, the curtain is rolled down. He's left already? He didn't even send a text or leave a note. I close the door and go to get his already washed clothes — the ones I washed last night when he changed into Sam's. Then I pick up my old backpack. I sling it over my shoulder and run out of the house.Cortney's car is pulling up to the front of m

    ***~~~RIVER~~~***I turn to the other side of the room, the sheets twisting around my legs. The bed is awkwardly comfortable—even though it's not as large and bouncy as mine is. I sigh, rolling onto my back. My hands press flat against my sides, fingers curling into the mattress as I stare at the ceiling in surrender. The time is 3 a.m., and I still can't get some sleep.I wonder what she is doing.After she ran away before we could kiss, something tight coiled in my chest. Bad. I felt bad. Bad that I keep dragging her in even though I can clearly see she's trying to run.I had stopped in front of her door after I left the living room. No light reflecting from the bottom of her door. She must have slept. So I pushed off and went to her sister's room instead.I didn't lie to Chan when I said she was the first person I had ever cooked for. I mean, I keep breaking the rules for her. Having sex unprotected. Curdling. Cooking. Walking her to her front door. It makes me look like a simp.

  • Craving My Best Friend’s Brother   Temptation

    I can hear the beating of my heart. The rain is pouring heavily, unexpected. Mom sent me a message that she won't be home tonight. That leaves me alone in this house with River.I swallow hard."Are you okay?""Uh?""You've been standing there, staring at me. Is something on my face?""No. Your face is perfect—" I stop. Freeze. Did I just say that? "I mean, perfectly fine. Your face is perfectly fine. There's nothing on your face."I look away. My fingers twist together in front of me.The tension between us is unbearable. The last time I pushed him away was because Mom was downstairs. Or because I just came back from a date with Ricky. I don’t know. I just know I had a little control.Oh gosh.Now there's no excuse."Are you sure you're fine?""Of course," I say, tucking a strand of hair behind my ear. Then behind the other. Then back again. "Well, the rain is still pouring and we don't know when it will stop. It would be rude to let you stay here.""No. I'm fine.""I insist."His br
