Tell Me We Weren't Just Friends Novels & Stories

I shrugged. “As just my friend? I thought we established it back in the restaurant. I don’t want to be just your friend.” he questioned, raising an eyebrow. I rolled my eyes, smiling just a little. “I know. Though I still don’t know what that really means. It was a bit of a hard thing to wrap my head around. We’ve been friends for so long, and you were always so adamant that it was all we were.” I sighed.

Surprisingly, I felt panicked, like this was the final goodbye; the final moment we would ever be close. "Just friends." He laughed as his face darkened. "You know as well as I do that we will never just be friends. We weren't made to be just friends. Neither of us can quit each other. We're wired to be together and it's just a matter of time before you can see that." I shook my head. "I thought that's how it was supposed to be, but things have changed." I bit my bottom lip and added, "You should probably leave. You have got a long drive a head of you."

I do not understand what you mean. - What are we? What is our relationship? -We are good friends. - Just friends? - Why the sudden question? "I just ... I don't want to get excited and fall in love without you feeling the same as me." "We get along, Amy, we have become very fond of each other and have become great friends."

It's like my whole world just crashed in front of me. Susi said that we are just...just friends...only friends...after all the time that we spent together she didn't feel anything for me?...nothing...so...I am just a mere friend to her..nothing more... "Hey! Are you listening?"Vik said shaking my arm. I just looked at him. "I told you that you don't have to bother about my sis anymore and that you can go after the rumored girl that you liked if there really is one. Anyways, thanks for trying your best because of me." he said and patted my arm.

He is the perfect friend anyone could have. “A while, I guess,” I replied. “Really? I actually thought we were friends. You just left without a word.” I had to stay hidden. I couldn’t let my emotions get the best of me. Even though every once in a while I think about how he must have felt with the whole situation. We weren’t just surface friends, we spent free time playing card games and getting to know each other. “It’s a bit complicated. I am sure you know little about it or whatever it is that you were told.”

Just like- “I forgot to mention that Emily and I have been friends for years. Our MOms are friends too so that didn’t give us much of a choice when it came to being around each other. She knows almost everything about me but it shouldn’t worry you. We’re not friends anymore,” I said, taking a deep breath. I hoped my small speech was going to get me off the hook. “That’s what worries me,” she said, “the fact that you’re not friends.” “What’s that supposed to mean?” I asked, genuinely curious.

"You know what? I'm done. I'm done trying to be your friend, Clara. You're toxic and you're bringing us all down. Maybe it is time for us to just cut ties and move on." I laughed bitterly. "Cut ties? You guys were never really my friends to begin with. You were just a bunch of people I hung out with because I didn't have anyone else when I first got here. And fun fact? I have been done for as long as I can possibly remember. I don't need any of you."

Almost like a different person from the one who’d just said I wasn’t like everyone else. I felt something sting behind my eyes and looked away before he could notice. Of course, we’d barely just met. What was I even thinking? “Right,” I said lightly. “I forgot this was friends with benefits.” I paused. “Except we’re not even friends. We can barely have a conversation without wanting to tear each other apart.” “Wait, we aren’t even friends. We hardly have a proper conversation without wanting to rip out each other’s throats.” I said in a louder voice than intended, ignoring the tingles of my naked body under the duvet.

She chuckled at my question, staring back at me like I had lost my mind or something. “I don't remember ever telling you that Kara and I were friends, my dear. I don't know if it slipped out of my mouth, but Kara and I were never friends. Rivals, yes, colleagues, yes, partners, yes, at some point, but friends? Never,” she answered, and I was utterly confused by her response.

We had so much to talk, we had so much to do, we had so much to fix and heal in the limited time we had but every time we were only left tongue-tied and downcast. A tear trickled down my eyes and before I could wipe it, my friends were there infront of me. Their faces didn't show any joy nor any excitement. They were dull and saddened. " Hii." I greeted somehow, moving forward for a hug. Even they were going to be a distant memory soon. " No." Muskaan stopped me. " How can you do this? You can't leave us, you can't leave Asher." She shrieked. I was startled. I never told her about us. We never told anybody. Nobody knew about us.
