บททั้งหมดของ My Best Friend’s Brother Is My Sneaky Link : บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Camille Before my last professor for the day was at the door, my books were already packed in my bag and I was on my feet, ready to go. When I made it out of class without someone calling me back, I heaved a sigh of relief. I had successfully escaped an awkward situation. Carla, my only other friend in this class wasn’t in school that day so I didn’t want to give anyone else the chance to talk to me after what had happened a few days earlier. From school, I went to the book store where I worked and greeted Miss Winston who was the owner and my boss. I had been working there since my first year in college and it was the best decision I had ever made. I only had to work for five hours everyday after school, and all I had to do was sit by the counter to receive payment from the very few people who ever patronized the old store. Miss Winston was nice, the pay was worth it, and the quiet solitude of the store gave me enough time to do my schoolwork and read whatever books I want

Camille: Several thoughts went through my head as I ran into my room and locked the door. I didn’t know what to do. If I called the cops and someone found out it was me, I’d never live it down. I always hated people who were so prissy to do that and I couldn’t imagine myself being such a party pooper even if the party was at my house and without permission. Sighing, I dialed Lucia’s number and stormed around nervously in my room as I waited for her to answer. I switched the lights on and jumped when I noticed movement on my bed. “Hey, do you mind?” The guy in my bed said breathlessly as he shielded his eyes from the light. There was a girl under him, doing god knows what under my covers. My eyelids twitched and I felt something crawl over my body- disgust. “Get the hell out of my room!” I yelled with a voice that didn’t sound like mine. “Girl, relax…” the girl said with a bored expression. “You don’t know me, so don’t call me ‘girl’ like we’re supposed to be fr

Camille: “You have such a nice apartment,” the girl said when she was done eating her sandwich. “Thank you,” Daniel said with a cheeky grin. “It’s not his apartment,” I said, unable to stop myself. “Cam,” Lucia reprimanded. “That wasn’t necessary.” “I’m sorry. Who are you again?” The girl asked, looking at me like I was the unwelcome guest instead of her. “Camille,” I said firmly. “Lucia and I share this apartment.” “Okay, I don’t care,” she said after studying me for a moment. “I didn’t know you had a sister, Dan. Sorry for keeping you up all night, Lucia,” she said with a proud chuckle. Good thing I had put on noise canceling headphones. I couldn’t imagine having to put up with whatever shenanigans Daniel and this girl had gone on during the night. “It’s no big deal,” Lucia said with a nervous laugh. “I just got back this morning anyway.” I glared at my roommate, but she didn’t look at me. When did she become so…not uptight. “Oh. Then who was knocking

Camille: I fought the urge to pinch myself. I had walked right into that one. I blinked twice and shut my mouth closed, realizing it had been hanging open. “Oh please,” I said and rolled my eyes, hoping he believed my indifference. “Don’t flatter yourself.” Daniel tossed his spoon into the air and caught it. He leaned further into the counter and watched me with that glint in his eyes, letting me know he wasn’t falling for my bored expression at all. “Okay, if you say so,” he said and I heaved a sigh of relief, grateful he had decided to drop it. On the other hand, I was a little surprised and almost curious to know why he had allowed an opportunity to taunt me slip. “However, if I’m not seducing you and this is how you act around every single guy, then I think you must have sent so many wrong signals,” he said and I rolled my eyes for real, chastising myself for letting myself believe he would drop it that easily. “I don’t know what you’re talking about,” I said, cro

Camille: I woke up roughly two hours later, feeling good as new even though I hadn’t really taken any medication for the fever. I yawned and sat up, realizing all I had needed was a trouble-free nap. Fortunately, I had woken up just in time to prepare for my job at the bookstore. I wouldn’t have to come up with an excuse this time. Miss Winston was incredibly nice, but there had to be a limit to her laxity. The house still felt empty when I left. Lucia was probably still tired after her night shift, while Daniel was definitely just brooding in his room like the big troubled baby he was. I knocked on his door and yelled ‘I’m leaving’, so that he would lock the door after I was gone. “You’re quite early,” Miss Winston said when she saw me. “I had a rough night and was a bit sick in the morning, so I didn’t go to school today,” I explained. “You shouldn’t have come at all,” she said with an alarmed expression. “Your health should always come first. I’ve told you that cou
