We can up with a really great plan to break the news to my mom without it looking suspicious.

So right now I was getting ready to go visit her.I called her everyday but today would be the first time I would see her after a little over two months.

It would be to tell her the biggest lie of my life. Bigger than when I broke her favourite vase and Luke took the fall. I rarely lied to her so my heart felt heavy

Luciano wanted to stay with me until I left but he had to go to a meeting with a shareholders. He could tell I was anxious and honestly if he were here he would be making stupid joke and I would forget all about the lie.

Just as I was about to gather my stuff my phone pings.

Even miles away he still made me laugh.

Me: no I did not know that

Me: I’m stressed right now. I’m having separate anxiety :(

Luke: That just means we’re basically emotional livestock s

  • Marry my best friend   Chapter 23: The planning

    Natalie’s POVthe door clicked shut behind me with a soft thud that somehow sounded louder than it should have. the silence in my apartment was a relief. A barrier between me and the chaos that occurred today. I peeled my clothes off and made my way towards the bathroom. I twisted the knob to the left. the pipes groaned in protest before the scalding water blasted from the faucet, steam billowing almost instantly against the glass.I stepped into the shower, and the burning water hit my shoulders like a punishment and comfort at the same time. the sting reminded me that I was still here, still breathing.the heat loosened my muscles, but not my thoughts. My forehead found the cool tile wall, and I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding.I continued to stay in there for another 15 minutes before stepping out.I decided to put aside the mole who leaked my design for now. I think I can only handle one problem at a time, and right now I need to focus on Luke.for now.I put on som

  • Marry my best friend   Chapter 22: The decision

    Natalie’s POV I sat across Luke in the dimly lit restaurant across my boutique. I figured it would be the perfect spot because today was a busy day for me. He looked rattled. I had already decided that I was going to help him but he didn’t need to know that just yet. “I have come to a conclusion. I don’t- I mean i-“ I stuttered just for effects. He looked like a kid that got told Santa isn’t real and suddenly it wasn’t funny anymore. I hated to see him sad. “I’m just kidding. I’m gonna help you” I said. “What?” He asked shocked “You sound shocked!” I said. “I am” he says with conviction. “Why is that?” I ask because I’m really curious. “I had really crazy thoughts yesterday. I came to the conclusion that I would not really blame you if you said no. As the day went by I really started to realise that this might just really be crazy.” “So we’re not going to do this anymore?” I ask Just to mess with him. “No no no that’s not what I meant I stil-. You’re messing

  • Marry my best friend   Chapter 21: The queen of procrastination

    Natalie’ POV -later that evening- “Wait are you serious?” Jessie asked me flabbergasted. “As serious as I can be.” I say as I throw the shot in my mouth and quickly reach for the lemon. “He literally said he needed to MARRY me. Emphasise on the MARRY. The board members in his company are diabolical” She laughed so loud she snorted in between. “Girl it is not funny” I said to her. “I know I’m sorry. It’s just that I didn’t expect you to say that to me.” I relayed pretty much everything Luciano told me to Jessica. He never said not to tell anyone. Plus I trusted her with my life. She would never sell me out like that. And God forbid a girl needs some advice from her best friend before making a life altering decision. “Look I say go for it. It won’t cause any harm for you to. You’ll be helping out a friend- a vey hot friend- in need. This is my fangirl talking by the way BUT as your friend I say think about it. Think about how it would benefit you and what are the d

  • Marry my best friend   Chapter 20: The proposal

    Luciano’s POV - an hour later- I froze For a second I couldn’t think. Panic got the best of me “Hello. Is anyone there?” The sound of her voice makes jolted me back to my senses. I cleared my throat.” This is gonna sound out of pocket and maybe a little crazy. Actually full blown mind boggling crazy but I need you to hear me out okay?” “Oookay. Lay it out to me I guess” she said full of hesitation but I couldn’t really blame her. This was about to get crazy. “Marry me “ That was not how I wanted to say this but it seemed like my mouth had a mind of its self own. She was so shocked that she chocked on her drink and started coughing profusely. “Shit Nat are you okay?” I reached out to pat her back. “I’m sorry what?” she said baffled. “ okay I didn’t mean to say this like that but my mouth seems to have its own mind” I exhale. “You remember yesterday? That call with the board member I mentioned?” “Yeah. The one who basically said you’re a rogue bachelor and

  • Marry my best friend   Chapter 19- The fair bonus scene

    I wasn’t in the mood for crowds, noise, or overpriced snacks. But then Natalie had said “Let’s go to the fair”—with that soft grin of hers and that spark in her eyes like she was already hearing the music and smelling the candy apples—and suddenly, the chaos of my day didn’t seem that important anymore. Now here we were, walking side by side through the fairgrounds, with strings of lights hanging above us like lazy stars, the night air thick with sugar and laughter. And she looked… unreal. Hair caught in the breeze, cheeks glowing under the carnival lights, her laugh cutting through the noise like something I hadn’t realized I needed until I heard it again. There were a million moving pieces in this place—rides spinning, games blaring, children screaming—and yet, somehow, she was the only thing in focus. “Why are you staring at me like that?” she asked, nudging me with her shoulder as we passed a funnel cake stand. I blinked. Caught. “Just thinking,” I said, clearing my t
