Wetting The Bed Of My Best Friend's Brother のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 41 - チャプター 50

Emma’s POVIt had been more than three weeks since the night Maddie walked in on us, and the silence since then had been unbearable. I had not spoken to either of them, though I tried, God knows I tried, especially with Maddie. She made it clear she wanted nothing to do with me, as if our friendship had truly ended. And for what? I could almost accept her shutting me out, pretending I did not exist, but Zane? That was something else entirely.We had promised each other that if Maddie could not handle the truth, we would step back. But he never even had the respect to tell me face-to-face that it was over. His silence spoke louder than any words. To me, it meant everything we shared was fake. He never cared, not once, and the only fool in this story was me, for believing a single word he ever said.The last three weeks had been hell. I had never felt this empty, this lost. To cope, I became someone I hardly recognised. Almost every night I was out, drinking too much, calling in sick to

Emma’s POVI paced the length of my apartment, waiting for Maddie to arrive. Zane was still heavy on my mind, but right now, mending things with her mattered more. I had been a wreck for days, but hearing her voice earlier had given me a little hope.“Emma?” Maddie’s voice carried from the doorway.“In here,” I called back, standing in the living room.Seconds later, she rushed in, throwing her arms around me.“Emma, I am so sorry,” she cried. “I should never have said those things or walked away from you. I have been such a terrible best friend.”Tears stung my own eyes as I clung to her. “No, Maddie. I am the one who should apologise. You had every right to be angry. I never should have hidden the truth or gone behind your back with Zane. I hurt you, and I hate myself for that.”She pulled back slightly, taking my hand in hers. Her face was red and blotchy, but her eyes were full of honesty.“You cannot control who you fall for,” she said softly. “I see that now. I just never realis

After a year later after they have getting togetherEmma’s POV“Emma, can you please hurry? We have been here forever,” Maddie sighed as I circled the clothing shop for the third time.“I know, I am sorry. I need the right dress for Zane’s and my one-year anniversary. I already have the intimate things sorted, but I still need the rest,” I laughed.“Please do not bring that up again. I do not want to hear about the lingerie you are buying for my brother,” she said, pulling a face.She was right, though. I had already dragged her into a lingerie shop earlier and bought far too much for our weekend away. I still could not believe it had been a whole year since Zane and I finally admitted that we loved each other. The past year had been incredible, but far from easy. It took us both a few months to adjust to being in a real relationship. We almost ended it once, but we realised that being apart was not an option. That struggle made us stronger. Looking back, I think we were both afraid o

Emma’s POVI sat by the shore, soaking in the calm waves and the endless horizon. Zane was inside preparing lunch, even though I had offered to help. He refused, as always. I still could not believe he had rented a whole beach house just for us to celebrate our first anniversary. Everything about it felt perfect.“Lunch is ready, Emma,” Zane called from the porch.I lingered a little, not wanting to leave my spot, but eventually stood and walked back up. On the table, he had laid out food and wine, and before I could sit down, he pulled me into his arms and kissed me gently. We took our seats, and I could not stop admiring the view from the deck. Honestly, every part of this house had something breathtaking about it.“I booked you an appointment tomorrow to get your hair and nails done. You keep talking about it but never manage to find the time,” he said.“What? Why? Tomorrow is our anniversary. I would rather spend it with you,” I said, pouting a little.“Do not worry, love. We will

Zane’s povTonight had been incredible. Emma and I were lying on a blanket by the water, her head resting on my chest. I smiled down at her. She was the most beautiful woman I had ever seen. It still felt impossible that she was mine.“Are you ready for dessert, baby?” I asked.“Yes, please,” she giggled.I leaned down and kissed her. “Wait here and enjoy the view. Do not move, okay?” I said.Emma nodded, though she looked a little puzzled by how insistent I was being. I did not explain. Instead I stood up and went inside. I gave myself a moment to breathe, then picked up the chocolate cake I had bought, Emma’s favourite. That was not the only thing I took. I had another gift for her, something more personal. I paused, breathed again, and walked back outside.Emma was standing by the water, staring out at the sea, lost in her own small world. Perfect.I moved quietly back to her, set the cake down on the table and came up behind her. I closed my eyes for a moment, telling myself I cou
