Novel & Cerita Smiling Friends Charlie

"You have to keep what I told you a secret. Not even Rebecca can know." Charlie groaned and rolled his eyes. "God, you're like a teenage girl." He lifted his empty glass anyway. "Fine. To your imprint, I guess." I clinked my glass against his, smiling despite myself. "I'll try to be more fair to him or whatever," Charlie muttered. "But only because we're friends." It wasn't a total victory. But it was something.

One of them says as we enter and they all turn to us, walking close to greet her with a hug, "Who are these girlies?" "These are my closest friends here. Nukea Dally and Violet Edison," Charlie says. When they hear my name they all look conflicted, so I just take off my sunglasses and try to give them a smile. "Hi," I blurt out. Their bad vibes as they look at me are preposterous. "Oh... your hair looks less ginger in this light," the girl mumbles and gives me a fake smile, "Anyway, this whole hotel looks fabulous, Char. Rahul did good, as usual. I can't wait to start our spa day."

When Ray said he had my friends waiting I thought he meant Harvey and Sandra, I didn’t expect Jake, Phoebe, Chloe, Elliot, and even my damn stepsister, Paris here. “Surprise!” They all shouted and I faked a smile then looked back at Ray who was smiling proudly. “So?” “Thank you.” Was all I could say, he kissed my lips before leading us to the second row seats. “For a minute I thought he lied to us.” Sandra said, loud enough, she was in the same row with Harvey which was a little new as she normally despised him.

We paid for the VIP pass!] [But look at those hickeys! Even if they didn’t go all the way, she definitely got some action.] “You’re awake. Eat some breakfast first... my girlfriend.” Douglas stood shirtless as he leaned against the doorframe. He was holding a cup of warm milk. What was the world coming to?

“I actually didn’t…” “Didn’t what? Break our friend’s heart?” “Didn’t make her miserable?” “You should have seen her swollen eyes!” The three talked over each other. “Wait, yes. I know. I did.” I tried to butt in. “Then you know you hurt her, right?” Charlie pointed at their said friend who was clearly unaffected and who was currently munching on fries. The other two shot her disgusted looks. “Could you just listen to me?” I said impatiently.

Pascal walked into the office and the smile on his face was still not all though it was now more calculated he was so deep in thought that he had forgotten to acknowledge his best friend and the CEO of the company who was just looking at him.

" I have good news for you Charlie I found you the perfect assistant and she is waiting outside for you," Charlie's face darkened.

I tell her its fine and Charlie raises an eyebrow at me but gives me a small smile and tells me she will wear the blue top to the party with some jeans. “So you are still going then?” and she nods “I did promise thirty minutes” After she finishes shopping we head back to the jeep. Once again Harrison was with his cronies in the car park, this time parked next to my vehicle. Was he stalking her or what?. “Hey Charlie” his voice was an annoying drawl Charlie gives him a big smile “Hi Harrison” “What do you want Harrison?” my voice was more spiteful than what I intended and Charlie raises an eyebrow at me in question.

Charlie and I got paired in our Home Ec. class and he was so happy because at least then, we'd have an excuse to hang out with each other in school. A day came where Charlie asked me to sit with him at lunch and as I was about to sit with him, my friends came along and started making fun of Charlie, asking me why I wanted to sit with him. And as they spewed so much venom at him, I couldn't do anything. I just watched them speak to my best friend, someone who was like my brother, so poorly. Charlie looked

Katherine’s POV “You’re smiling so hard that it’s honestly embarrassing to watch, Katherine. If this man does not ask you to be his girlfriend tonight after everything the two of you have been doing together for the past three years, then I personally volunteer to run him over with my car.” I burst into laughter at Brittany’s dramatic voice echoing loudly through my bedroom while I stood in front of my mirror with two dresses spread across my bed behind me, my cheeks already aching from how uncontrollably I had been smiling ever since Damon texted me earlier this afternoon.
