Between Friends Novel Novels & Stories

“Please tell me you didn’t.” “I can’t do that.” Fuck. I knew I should have run this past her. “Because as it also turns out, I know him too. Brice was a friend of mine growing up. We grew apart after high school. I didn’t know about you or about Annie. I haven’t spoken to him since graduation. Well, until Monday.” When her eyes could grow no more, her expression fell. “You knew Brice?” The way she said his name was like she was afraid it was going to bite her. Having now seen how he had become, I wasn’t surprised. If I never had to say his name again after this conversation, it would be too soon.

Sasha continued, desperate for something to say in order to fill up the silence, "I don’t think I've ever met anyone like her… she's the only one I can call a friend." "Ouch" Kaleb said, clutching his chest playfully, "You are saying you don't consider me a friend? Such a hurtful thing to say, doll face. You wound me!" Sasha punched him playfully, "Stop calling me, doll face. And you know what I meant. Besides, it's the truth. We have never been friends… Why do you suddenly care about that now?" He turned to face her fully, and Sasha held her breath. "Change is a part of life, is it not?" he asked, then continued without waiting for her to reply, "In fact, some people say it's constant. We w

"I love you, mom." I could hear dad yelling in the background. "I love you, too, dad. Talk to you later." Clicking my phone off, I wandered back to my room upstairs to read a couple of chapters in my latest novel. It didn't seem very long after I got swept up in The Hobbit before my phone was ringing once again. It seems I'm just getting increasingly popular these days. "Hello?" I called out as I put my phone on speaker. A hushed voice whispers over the phone, "Ciprian?"

“We are just friends.” Jessica gave me a look. “Friends don’t look at each other the way he looks at you. Or the way you say his name.” “I do not say his name weird.” “You say it like a sigh. Luciano. Like he’s both your problem and your solution.” I laughed, embarrassed, then set the glass down and curled my knees under me. “He’s been my best friend since we were kids. He knows all the versions of me—the awkward one with braces, the broke college student, the girl who used to cry over fashion week rejection emails and I’m pretty sure he doesn’t see me that way either.”

I'd wanted to know what a normal life felt like, so I'd kept that part of myself buried. When I met Samantha, struggling to get by but pushing through school anyway, I made her my best friend. When she couldn't afford the hot meals in the cafeteria, I'd pile extra food onto my tray every day and pretend I couldn't finish it, sliding it over to her. When she couldn't pay for school materials, I'd made up a story about winning a scratch-off and covered it for her. When guys from outside school started giving her trouble, I'd scared them off myself.

Since she's so into boy’s love novels, she can't really tell it to other people because she knew that they won't understand her sentiment but now that she finally found the right person she won't let go of this opportunity. "It's my pleasure to be your friend, well your case is the same as mine. My friends were all guys and I can't tell them about my interest in this kind of novel. Although I'm not ashamed of this, they won't understand even if I tell them about it so I'm used to reading alone. But since we got to know each other maybe we can hang out from time to time." Max suggested. After that, they talked for almost an hour before deciding to leave.

I’m not the type that keeps promises, I’m likely to break a promise a second after making it. That was what happened with Julia, I met her in college and we became best friends. You will be shocked to find out that I asked her to be my best friend. Things ended up as usual, she severed our friendship because of Casper, a guy who had a crush on me in college. Funny enough, I rarely have friends, the ones I thought were friends will always end up betraying me. If I can’t have real friends in a normal world, how can I make friends in an…abnormal world?

Sally was wondering what the surprise could be this time around; there is nothing that would surprise her more than seeing Kayla at her place this early noon because never in this world would she have believed that she would come visit her at her workplace. Kayla brought out a novel and handed it to Sally. The book was about friendship, and that is the book Kayla has been reading today, both of them coming into a healthy friendship. Sally placed her hand on her head. "I can't believe you brought this." Sally said when she couldn't hold in laughter anymore. Kayla knew it was going to be hilarious, but she just wanted to read the book and take some lessons through the book because that's what'

But one day, when a new girl came into town, I finally found a friend. Since then, we have been best friends through thick and thin. Even after she found out that she was pregnant with Billy Jones’s baby.

Jamie’s smile grows wider and wider, “Really? That’s hell of a coincidence, because it would be him for me too! What a surprise!” I put up a bright smile for him, “See? Once you start to talk about yourself, you’ll find the people around you have a lot of things in common with you. And that’s how we make friends.” Brightly, Jamie chuckles, “You’re right.” So, if he thinks I am right on this, “Can I be your friend, Jamie?” Without a second of hesitating, Jamie nods, “Of course.” Oh splendid. We have an announcement. Ladies and gentlemen, now I present to you——Jamie Lee Peyton, the first friend Henry Nosrevi has made after Henrietta.
