(RORY’S POV)

My fist knocked on the door, the sound was firm and decisive against the quiet of the evening in the large compound. I stepped back, wringing my hands clasped together as I waited.

My fear of driving was gone and now replaced by the dread of this confrontation. This was the closest house, but it was also the last one I wanted to visit.

Chad Anderson’s.

Every instinct in my body had screamed at me to go to Todd’s first, it was the natural thing to do, but I knew his parents. They

  • When Best Friends Kiss   Her Father!!

    (RORY’S POV)I was buried deep in a lot of thoughts by the time we got to Amanda’s house. I mean I was buried so deep that I didn’t even notice we had arrived.It was only when Tia’s hand graced my shoulders gently that I snapped out of my thoughts.“We’re at the address, Rory. Is this the house?” She pointed out softly like she was trying to be careful with me.Even Dad from the front seat was looking at me like I was as fragile as an egg.“Yes, we are here.” I said with a deep breath. My voice sounded hoarse and cracked. As tired and devastated as I felt.“Okay love. Whenever you’re ready to step out, just let me know, okay?” Tia added, rubbing my back gently while I nodded my head in response.I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying my best to steady myself and to calm my racing thoughts but the memories and events of this morning came crashing down on me with no space for me to even think.The way I had raced downstairs and found out about the O’Connor’s attack and Todd’s

  • When Best Friends Kiss   The Wrong Morning.

    (RORY'S POV)The moment I woke up, I knew something was wrong. I could feel it and it just wasn't the strange text Todd had sent to me last night.It was the fact that the house sounded noisy and rowdy downstairs. I threw on a dress robe and hurried down the stairs with my heart racing in my chest. My whole body could feel it, that something was wrong.And when I got downstairs and saw Aunt Ryan, Tia and Dad huddled up together, I knew that something was definitely wrong.They froze when they saw me and their eyes told me they were covering up something important.“What's wrong?” I asked before I even got to the foot of the stairs. “This is about Todd, isn't it? I know it's about him.”I hadn't waited for them to confirm but my gut told me I was right.The three adults exchanged a look and then Dad stepped forward just as I started to take steps closer to them.“How did you sleep, Mija? We're sorry to wake you.” Dad sounded formal and blunt, increasing the way my heart was racing.“I

  • When Best Friends Kiss   The Kidnapping??

    (RORY'S POV)The garden had grown quiet. Most of the guests had left, and the fairy lights seemed dimmer now, like they were tired too. I could hear Nana laughing somewhere inside the house with Aunt Ryan and Sophia, their voices muffled through the walls.Todd and I stood near the back gate, the place where we wanted to say goodbye. His hand was still wrapped around mine, his thumb tracing slow circles on my skin."You should get some rest," he said softly. "It's been a long day."I laughed without humor. "That's an understatement."He pulled me closer, his arms circling my waist. I let myself lean into him, my cheek pressed against his chest. His heartbeat was steady beneath my ear, a calming rhythm I had come to depend on."I'm sorry again," he murmured into my hair. "I wish I could take it all back. Give you a do-over."I shook my head against him. "No. I needed to know. Better now than later, right?"He didn't answer right away. Instead, he tilted my chin up so he could look at m

  • 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
