Novel & Cerita Best Friends Without Benefits

“A small house somewhere far from all this. No family business. No Dante watching my every move. Just us. Normal life. Maybe kids someday. A dog. Stupid shit like that.” I leaned my head on his shoulder, smiling. “I want that too. No more golden cage. No more being traded for alliances. Just you and me. Waking up together every morning. No secrets. No pretending.” The words felt impossible. The Vance family would never let me go. Killian was Dante’s right hand. Running away would mean being hunted for life. But talking about it here, in the dark garden at 2 AM, made it feel real for a moment. Possible.

Then she took a large step back, like I was something contagious she didn't want near her. "You heard me, Cassandra. So I'll stop pretending. Please don't follow me around anymore. I don't want to be your friend. Someone like Wendy, with her background and her world, that's the kind of person I want in my life. "Look at yourself. You've got nothing, and you solve everything with your fists. You're not even someone I want to be seen with. Honestly? Being your friend has always been embarrassing." I stood there frozen after she finished.

he pronounced solemnly. “Aw come on, buddy. You’re not kids anymore, you know. Things can change. So why don’t you let go of the past and start afresh with her?” “Whoa! Are you through? Is this my personal life we are talking about?” he snapped at his best friend. “Are you telling me to back out, pal? After the way you had raped my personal life before I accepted that I was in love? No way!” Jake replied chuckling delightfully, appearing pleased by the prospect that his friend was in a dilemma.

"So you're not going to answer me? After everything you said about her: 'Oh she's just a friend', 'We've known each other since preschool', 'There's nothing between me and her' and 'She's not my type', that was a pile of bullshit because you're dating her now!" "Well, unlike you, she understands me and listens to my every word. I don't have to worry because I know where I stand with her." He stood up and walked slowly towards me. "Don't you dare fucking get closer to me," I warned. My heart had already gone out the window, and I was beginning to hate him. "Zen, I did say that we can be friends. It's much better that way for you and I." "Yeah. The last time you said that, you pinned me agains

I wanted to scream in frustration with everything, but instead, I gave him my answer. “I understand that. We can be friends with benefits.” I told him, while doing my best not to show the mixture of emotions I was feeling. “You do know what that means right?” He asked, one brow rising as he looked at me. “I know what the term friends with benefits is.” I said, rolling my eyes in amusement. “Just making sure. Don’t want you to get it in your head that we are going to be mated or anything. It is merely a mutual agreement of convenience.” He chuckled, as he turned to look over the side of the building again.

"I-i don't have many friends, my parents are never around, Hal is everything i have and Sal just wants to steals that from me and-" "You don’t have friends?!" Nathan scoffed before anyone could object. "Are you fucking kidding me Jordan?! What about the soccer team? What about us? You have plenty of people but you're just too focused on Hal. And steal him from you? Seriously? Have you ever stopped to ponder upon the fact that maybe it might be the other way around? Hal and Sal have been friends for ages, and they are probably going to stay that way whether you like it or not. So get over yourself and let Hal have other people besides you in his life."

“Anyway, I wanted to let you know that now we’ve er, you know fucked, that I won’t be seeing anyone else. There won’t be random hook ups for seeing other women. You are it for me, Harper if we continue this whatever it is we are doing.” She smiles, her eyes light up, her skin is radiant. “That’s good to know, Levy because right now you are it for me too and I definitely will not be fucking other guys. What this is I have no idea but let’s call it friends with benefits for now. Sound okay to you?”

Tucked under the covers, Bailey and Mirabella unpaused the scary movie and leaned back into the pillows. Bailey hunched up the covers until they covered her chin and she could literally feel Mirabella tremble. The two clearly got frightened easily but still, enjoy a good scary movie on sleepover nights. "Kristina should've been here." Mirabella sighed. Kristina was their other best friend who couldn't make it tonight. Bailey nodded agreeing with her. If Kristina was here she'd most likely scream the house down.

"I don't want to complicate things. We're neighbors, and I value our friendship." "So, friends with benefits?" he suggested, raising an eyebrow. I laughed softly. "I didn't know people still use that term, " "My apologies your highness, I am afraid I couldn't think of something better." He said laughing too. " Yeah, I guess so. No strings attached, just enjoying each other's company." "Sounds good to me," he said, leaning in to kiss me gently. "But let's make sure we communicate. If anything changes, we need to be honest with each other."

"Yes, friends with benefits. Don't exclude the benefits. I don't go around touching my friends. Let me just say this loud and clear Erica. I really want to fuck you." *****
