Venti Friends Novels & Stories

Before I could answer—before I could tell her that I hadn't fled out of regret, but out of absolute, terrifying panic because I had realized I wanted to keep her in my bed forever—my phone buzzed violently on the table. It was a group chat notification. From Bea, our mutual friend from our college days at UP Diliman. Bea: Hey power duo! Just got word from the upper management that the joint venture is official! Mandatory celebratory dinner tonight at Wildflour Uptown. 8:30 PM. No excuses, we are already at the table ordering drinks! 🥂 Atasha’s phone buzzed a second later. She looked down at the screen, then up at me, the anger in her eyes morphing into a look of sheer dread.

“No one checked in, not once. You left me in that house with him. And now, because I’m helping your precious Sareena, I’m part of the friend team again? Like I wasn’t invisible this whole time?” Then I looked down and saw Vincent staring up at me, jaw tight, eyes dark. Without a word, he started climbing. “Vincent, don’t…” “Too late,” he grunted, hauling himself up, scraping his hands raw on the bark. A minute later he was beside me, scratched up but grinning, staring out at the lake. “You’re right,” he said. “We were all friends. Gabby, Maximus, Demetrius, Sareena, Lessia, you, and me. Especially you and me. But when Sareena left, you pulled away from us, Soapie.”

"Said I would. What's with the reserved seat?" Leaning her hands on the bar, she winked. "You're VIP, handsome." Damn, but the swell of her breasts peeking over the top of her shirt took considerable effort not to stare at. "Meet George, Frank, and Henry." She indicated the three stools to my left. "These are Grampy's good friends, and my other VIPs. You'll always have a stool here open for ya." Huh. I smiled at the elder gentlemen and shook their hands. In fact, she had quite the eclectic mix of clientele. Young, old, blue-collar, suits, rocker, biker, conservative. Wonder how many fights broke out on average.

She wondered why she never told Tilly about the way she felt for her brother. It was weird, because she and Tilly told each other everything. They kept nothing from each other. Tilly parents had even invested in her food truck business when she started it to show their support, but she'd kept her crush on Kaleb a secret. Maybe she was just scared of the way Tilly would react. What if Tilly didn't like the idea of her dating her brother? Would it leave a mark on their relationship?

"My mates, my partners, my friends. I couldn't ask for anything more." The music began again, and the pack returned to the dance floor. My mates and I danced together, our masks hiding our faces but not our love. We were the Venom Fang Pack, and we were unstoppable.

adding a cheeky wish for Katrina to find her own rich husband soon. Knowing full well that Katrina would never marry Marcus in this lifetime, Serena's comment was a deliberate jab. Katrina was so furious she nearly ground her teeth to dust. “Serena, you spiteful person, you've made my life miserable and I won't let you get away with it." Damien and Serena shared many mutual friends, like Maureen and Marcus. To play along with Serena, Damien used the declaration and pictures she sent him and posted them on his social media. The moment Damien posted on social media, his phone wouldn't stop buzzing. All his friends were sending messages of congratulations.

I start to say interrupting him mid sentence. “Don’t fucking interrupt me! You’re making me lose my fucking patience! Jamie we have to go to Russia, and we have to be there for this event! Ryan Scuderi is not going to be an issue to get rid of! Your brother will be fine with some of my men!” He tries to reason with me.\

" Wait, your dad and Lilian aren't ready yet!" " It's fine, I'll take the bus!" I yelled over my shoulder, practically running away from my mom, yet, unfortunately I could not run away from the huge problem in my life currently, who was a very tall and hot as hell boy named Kaleb, who so happened to be my best friend's brother and was also off limits. __ Katrina is waving me over across the driveway, she's standing on the last step of the entrance to the school building. I rush over, a bit unsure and flustered as I remembered the looks she sent me yesterday.

(Euan’s P.O.V) 2 years later: Today is Juniper’s 18th birthday, and she’ll finally know that we’re mates! It seems like forever ago when I asked her to be my girlfriend and I had to come clean to Killian that Juniper was my mate.
