(RORY'S POV)

It was almost two hours later when Dad and I finally got a moment alone.

Rosalie was in the ambulance, being checked one last time before they'd let her go home. Tia was talking to a police officer, her lawyer voice fully activated, as she spoke to him.

I sat on the back bumper of an ambulance, a scratchy blanket around my shoulders, staring at nothing.

Dad sat down beside me.

For a long moment, neither of us spoke.

Then, "Rory."

His voice was quiet. Too quiet.

I didn't look at him

  • When Best Friends Kiss   A Friend’s Betrayal.

    (RORY’S POV)I wasn’t sure of what to do or to say anymore. Especially after seeing the pictures Todd had shown me. Private messages between Amanda and Leslie.It confirmed Leslie was not lying and that made my bones feel so weak that I sank onto one of the swings.Todd was silent for a few seconds and then he came forward and crouched before me.“I’m so sorry, Candy. I really wanted to keep this until after your birthday. I know how much Amanda means to you.” He said softly, his eyes clouded with guilt.“It’s not your fault. I insisted.” I said, avoiding his gaze and focusing on my fingers as they interlocked with one another.Todd took my hand in his quickly and I was forced to look back up into his eyes.“Are you okay?” He asked me. Softly, with concern.I nodded and shrugged. And then I sighed.“I don’t know what to think.” My voice came out like a shaky croak, and I realized that I was finding it a little less easy to breathe. “I shouldn’t feel too betrayed, I mean what was I thi

  • When Best Friends Kiss   The Spy.

    (RORY’S POV)“Wh-what’s wrong with Amanda?” The words rushed out of my mouth despite the rate at which my heart was racing.It suddenly felt like my birthday had been celebrated a long time ago. Like all the fun that had happened during the party was a distant memory and we were now present in a grey clouded environment.“Did the Williams find out that she helped us? Oh my God, is she in trouble?”Todd’s hand reached for mine immediately.“Hey, hey.” He called softly, his free hand cupped my face and held me firmly so that I looked directly into his eyes. “Calm down, okay? Amanda is fine and out of trouble. Also, the Williams don’t know that she helped you with evidence against him.” Then he added with a shrug. “At least, not that I know of.”I released a sigh of relief but my worry did not go completely. How could it when Todd still had that look on his face? The one that said something was terribly wrong.I got off the swing, his hand still in mine and made sure that I was standing

  • When Best Friends Kiss   It’s About Amanda.

    (RORY’S POV)My birthday turned out to be way cooler than I expected. I didn’t even think of the Williams for once when it started.After we cut the cake together, we had an open buffet that had all kinds of foods, a huge thanks to Nana. There was also a wonderful dessert table, which had different flavors of Candy fluff, assorted cookies, a variety of ice cream and so many types of doughnuts.Then there was a huge bouncing castle set up at the back of the house. It was almost like a kiddies party and though we didn’t have many kids around, the teenagers and adults present made sure they had a lot of fun as well.Everyone was playing and laughing. I got on the bouncing castle. Just once. And it was all because Todd and Rosalie forced me onto it. They made me the first person to get on the bouncing castle, opening the gates for more people to get onto the bouncing castle.By the end of the day, everyone was very exhausted. Even Dad. And trust me, that says a lot. I did see him on the b

  • When Best Friends Kiss   The Birthday Girl.

    (RORY'S POV)The garden looked like something from a dream.Strings of warm green lights crisscrossed above our heads, twinkling softly against the late morning sky like tiny stars that had decided to come down and join the party. Lanterns in shades of soft pink and gold hung from the branches of the old oak trees, casting a gentle glow over everything beneath them despite the natural light streaming into the garden.“Oh my goodness.” I was too stunned to move, tears pricked my eyes and I didn't even notice that my hand was trembling until Nana squeezed it tighter and said:“It's okay, Mija. Don't get too emotional, okay? Let's go forward.”I turned to her, her smile was wide and she had tears filled in her eyes. I didn't realize that the tears from my eyes had slid down my cheeks until she reached forward and touched them gently.“Don't ruin your makeup, please. Rosalie is going to get mad.” She whispered and tilted her head behind me.I cast a glance behind me and sure enough, right

    (RORY'S POV)“Oh my goodness! So gorgeous!” Rosalie gushed over me with her phone extended, under the bright ring light.“Rosa, isn't that enough?” I groaned tiredly.“Yes, Rosa.” Aunt Ryan pushed forward, flashing me an apologetic smile on behalf of my sister who had taken over a thousand pictures of me and was still not willing to stop.I would have been ready to stay back for more pictures but I was feeling very anxious. I wanted to hurry down and see Todd aside, to talk to him and find out whatever Leslie had told him.But Rosa was making that far from possible.She pouted. “But I need a couple more videos. She looks so beautiful.” She whined, tilting her phone in front of me. Aunt Ryan held her shoulders and gently steered her away.“We all agree that Rory looks stunning but she needs a breather.” Aunt Ryan said and I released a deep sigh of breath and stood up from the chair, casting a grateful look at my aunty.“Thanks, Aunt Ryan.” I said and then I walked over to my sister and
