How To Act Around Your Crush Novels & Stories

“Brittney, I was wondering if you’d join me for a drink. There’s a place nearby.” The words felt surreal, as though I’d stepped into Someone else’s life. I couldn’t believe my boss, my high school crush, was asking me out. For a while, I just stood there, staring at him, my pulse racing in confusion. But as tempting as the idea was, I couldn’t accept. “I appreciate the offer,” I muttered, trying to steady my voice. “But I really can’t.” His brows furrowed slightly, but his face remained composed. “Can’t, or won’t?”

I swallowed my breath, as the air seemed to vanish for a second, with my eyes staring at his, “Yes, I did but—” “But nothing,” he cut me off, pulling my chin up a bit more,“The best way to get that dude to fall for your charms is by showing it but in a way that seems like you don't care whether he sees it or not.” “And how exactly am I even meant to do that, huh?” A sight hiccup escaped my mouth, “I mean the dude is actually the definition of stone-cold, I don't think he cares about anything other than basketball, books and well keeping his pride for family.”

It's just a ball right? I've never attended a prom before and my first time would be with my best friend's crush. "You don't get to come to me, i'd come to you" I declared with glowing eyes at him. "Okay" he replied with a grin as he looked shy. "And you're signing a contract" "What!" He exclaimed, his mood brightens the more. He seems thrilled beckoning on me to specify what kind of a contract it would be. "It would contain your behavior around me. You see Cole, I want only you to myself for the ball and no one else is coming in between, you know what I mean"

Lindsay interrupted him, “Oh, please! Do not even try to deny it. You have never been good at hiding certain things, especially from me.” “How long have you known about us?” “I know you had an instant crush on her the first time you met her at the river by Little Bob’s house.” “How could you possibly know that? I didn’t even know it then.” “I know because you do certain things when you crush on someone. The first thing you do is get all tongue-tied, which you normally never do. The second thing is that you blush when you are teased about Izzy. The only time you blush is when you have a crush on someone and are teased about them or by them. Do I need to go on?”

He is attractive, and I could develop a crush on him if I don't keep my guard up. "Lots of k-kissing," I nod at him. "Got it." Kissing Maddox and entering a fake relationship with him—what could possibly go wrong?

One more touch of the kiss deepened my breathing and I tried to fight the kiss but I remembered I was strong so I avoided. "Try harder, hmm?" He touched my chin. "Your lips says otherwise tho," I eyed him sharply and closed my eyes tightly. "I won't crush you anymore, okay?" I exclaimed. "What can we do about it then? I still have a crush on you, what can we do? We have to make it mutual don't you think?" He parted my hair and blew it in the Liad. "No! Not everything needs mutual!" I said. "How's that? I like mutual." He sulked and pouted and I almost stuck to his look.

"What do you mean?" "Yeah. I mean… I've been watching him, you know? The way he acts around me isn't as friendly as it should be…unlike the way he acts around certain people. I don't want to jump to conclusions, but something is going on…Maybe I made a mistake thinking he liked me." I swallowed. "What certain people? Who do you have in mind?" "I'm not sure yet," she replied carefully. "But I'm going to find out. Now that I'm not blinded by my crush, I've got plenty of time on my hands."

I blurted. She glanced at me, obviously surprised. "You're crushing on someone?" “Something like that…" I'd never have the confidence to admit it to Ava, but she made me comfortable enough to say that. Thankfully, she didn't ask who it was, instead she answered my question. “I've had a lot of crushes, I even dated some of them. I'm lucky, to be honest. Some people never get a chance with theirs.” I hummed in agreement. Some people… like me. "Is it hard to get over a crush? How long does it take before they get out of your thoughts and you start living a normal life?" Stephanie stared straight ahead. "I don't know, maybe at least a month." I gaped. She looked at me and burst into laughter. "W

After a few seconds, I noticed that the screen of her phone was still brightly lit, so I walked forward to turn it off. Just as I did, a few words caught my eye. How to seduce your crush?

"That’s the thing. I don’t know! Everything’s happening so fast. We’ve kissed a few times. She even kissed me before I left her place today, but I haven’t officially asked her to be my girlfriend. Should I? Is it necessary now? And how should I even act around her? What if I mess this up?” Jeff laughed, shaking his head. “Relax, man. You’re acting like you just signed a contract with a bomb squad. It’s not that complicated. First off, you need to stop assuming. Define what’s happening between you two, ask her on a proper date, let her know how you feel. You can’t just float around hoping things define themselves.” Fred nodded, trying to take in the advice.
