I Just Want To Be Friends Mga Nobela at Kwento

"What do you want from us?" "I want my best friend back," I say, my eyes getting watery. "It feels like I can't breathe when we're not talking everyday and seeing each other all the time. I don't want to feel that way anymore." I move forward and rub up and down her thighs. "I want to call you my girlfriend, and I want you to call me your boyfriend. I want to call and text you every day. I want to take you home to family dinners and get you a permanent pass for seats in the team box. I want to celebrate birthdays and holidays with you. I want to support you in your endeavors and be here for you when you need to lean on me."

I say, I’m about to leave when she calls out for me again and I halt my step. She open her lips to speak, but then she seem nervous because she start to play with her fingers. “ I know this will sound very awkward, but can we be friends from now on please?” she ask, and all the hair on my body stands firm. “ Huh?” I make a sound, as though I didn’t get that. “ I want us to be friends, I’m tired of getting mad at you or even jealous of you and I’ve finally accepted that you and Noah are meant to be.” She says.

I wiped those sweats and he just have me a sweet smile. "So, what do you think of me? As your friend?" He quizzed again. " Hmm. I don't know. I just know that I do not want to be friends with you. And also, my heart beats fast when I am with you. I want to steal lot of kisses from you, hug you as long as I could because your hugs and cuddles makes me feel safe, and I wil always seek for your chilling company." I truthfully stated. Well, that is true. I do not want him to be one of my friends. I have this thing in me that saying, Icki should not be my friend.

I asked, sitting on the bed. "Well, let me explain why I want to be your friend, okay?" I nodded in agreement. "As you know, we only live one floor apart and we're going to see each other everyday till the contract ends so I thought maybe we would become friends since we live near each other. Is that okay?"

“Are you high?” “No,” I smile faintly. “I just want to make things right, think of it like I'm turning a new leaf .” He watches me for a moment longer. “And how do you plan on doing that?” he asks again, but softer this time. I hesitate,then I say it. The dumbest thing I've ever opened my mouth to say. “Can we be friends?” His brows shoot up. “You don’t even know my name.” “Then tell me.” Another pause.

I said firmly. “I know,” he said quickly, his face falling ever so slightly. “I’m not asking for a relationship. I just wanted to be honest about how I feel. And... I was hoping we could at least be friends.” Friends? Was he insane? “Friends?” I repeated, arching an eyebrow. “And what exactly does that entail?” “Nothing more than conversation,” he said earnestly. “I won’t pester you. I just... I want to be someone you can talk to, whether you’re happy or sad. Like a real friend.”

Was that it? "I just…" He paused, taking a breath. "I just want to be in your life again, even if only as a friend." My eyes widened slightly. "You want to be friends?" I asked casually, fighting to hide the disappointment in my voice, I had expected a different question. "I know it’s not ideal, but it’s the only thing I can ask for right now," he said softly. "I need you in my life, Rubby. Even if it’s just as a friend."

He said, bluntly, then turned his stare away from her face. "So, Logan huh?" Becky too knew it wasn't working out. "Fuck!" She lowered her head and whispered under her breath as she got no reply from him. But he heard her. "Fuck?" He asked with bright eyes—they were definitely blue. "Oh, nothing. It's just," she said, then bursted out like the parrot that she was. "I'm like here on my own even though it's my birthday, because my stupid friend couldn't make it—she had a date at Paris with her new boo—and I was just hoping I could have at least some fun--"

"I think so… I’d, uh… I’d like to be friends again. No drama, no attachments. Just… us." "Just us," he echoed, smiling. "I like the sound of that."

I would try to be friends with Hunter again. Maybe when people see that he has friends, they’ll start seeing him as a normal teenager… But most importantly, I’ll get my old friend back. And if he objects, I’ll just annoy him till he agrees to be my friend! Now that sounds like a plan…
