Friends Rachel Joey Novels & Stories

We had become friends at work but I noticed that’s the only time we talk. “Why do you have to be such a drama queen?” Rachel asks as she moves to stand next to Cole. That sinking feeling is back again. So much for avoiding them. “Awh little spitfire at it again” Avery says and something about that sounds so familiar and I hear a growling noise again. And did he just say ‘again’? My head starts to ache a bit.

"Under Clause 3.2, the agreement is terminated. The space allocations are restored. She is free to expand her professional horizons." "You are a coward, Khalia Salvador," Bea whispered fiercely, her eyes widening with a mix of profound anger and deep, agonizing heartbreak as she kneeled on the hardwood floor right in front of me, forcing me to meet her gaze. "You think you're being strong? You think you're building a fortress to protect your friendship and your career? You're not. You're just a terrified little girl who would rather live in a beautiful, sterile tomb than admit you have a heart. Lileth raised you to believe that if you aren't perfect, you’ll be abandoned. So you built this ca

The situation was as critical as it could get. In all of Eldermoor, I was the only one who could perform this surgery. Sweat trickled down my forehead and splattered onto my mask. Just as I was about to insert the needle, the heavy lead door of the operating room was violently pushed open. Blinding light and noise flooded in. My girlfriend, Katie Wilder, barged in with a man dressed in an expensive suit. I recognized him instantly. He was Luke Rivera, Katie's childhood friend, who had just returned from abroad.

“She came with a man. The man paid for your drinks.” Rachel… with a man? My chest tightened. Liam? Her supposed fiancé, the one on her phone’s screensaver? The noise from the bar’s television suddenly cut through the tension. The anchor’s cheerful voice rang out: “The Valemonts celebrate yet another big win today, following the massive success of their new digital investment app…”* And then his face appeared on the screen. Christopher Valemont. My jaw locked so tight my teeth ached. Chris used to be my closest friend. But we had a fall out. To me, he was the kind of friend who would snatch what belonged to you without flinching, without apology. We hadn’t spoken since my mother died.

Are you seriously going to drop the project just for your romance? "I want Jordan. I'll do anything as long as Jordan is happy!" "Are you really going to choose love over power? Rachel, you'll regret this one day!" I instinctively turned around when I heard someone talking about Rachel. Sure enough, I saw a gaggle of people surrounding Rachel. There was a look of contempt on her face as she retorted, "Regret it? Ha! You guys are just jealous!" Rachel, who was suffering from amnesia, rested one hand on her forehead. This was one of her ticks.

“And seeing as how much you want me to be out with people, I’ll be out for the day,” “Kieran,” Khala Willa says, stopping me. “I’m sorry. We didn’t know about your friends,” I nod. I don’t think she has anything to apologize for. From what I heard of their little discussion, she was the only one not speaking down on me. “It’s fine. I’ll be out of your hair,” Pulling my phone from the pocket of my skirt, I dial Luca’s number and bring the phone up to my ear. “Yeah?” he says by way of greeting.

“Heck! You got me!” Just then, Jordan appeared from a passageway that led to the lecturers' block, and he was equally surprised to see Isioma standing right there, laughing so close to a drop-dead handsome fella. “Whoa! Look who we have here.” Isioma jested, as Jordan approached them. “If it isn't Mr. River Jordan himself, my former crush.” Jordan stopped before them, feeling awkward. Isioma noticed. “Well, Jordan, this is Mike, the guy I told you about that was helping me with my unfortunate issue,” she said to clear the air. “And Mike, meet Jordan, my best friend for now.”

‘Seriously, what is his problem? I wasn’t able to see Jake before the game began but I looked out for his number and made sure to give my best energy I could for our first cheer routine. I had caught him waving to me briefly as they ran back onto the field near the end of our cheer routine, and I couldn’t help the huge grin on my face. “Oh, my god. Rylee, are you dating someone from the other team? Who is he?” “Yeah, what’s his name? Is he cute?” I was instantly bombarded by the Coleman twins, Kendra and Kinsley, the number one gossip queens of our team.

He threatened me in front of my Fish. Rachel died laughing. She got the death stare, too. "Bitch, I'll remember this," I growled at her. "You're just mad because there's someone around now who can contain you, and I'm eating that shit up like it's a damn buffet. Dax just became my new best friend." "Hussy, you don't have any friends. Your mama pays us all to hang out with you and has since high school."

She recgonize this guy too well since she had seen him everyday. She walks closer to get a better look, but she is left beyond surprised by what she saw. "Rachel, what's wrong?" Jack ask as he notice his friend is staring at something with her eyes widen. Tears starts to fill Rachel's eyes as she feels a sharp blade just stabbed her heart. She couldn't believe what she is seeing. More than that, she couldn't believe the guy she is staring at is really him. The guy she tried not to believe that it's him.
