Why You Re My Bestie Book Novels & Stories

“Cheer up, Molly. That jerk isn’t worth your tears.” The thought of losing Grandma forever broke my heart. I sobbed, “Evie, Grandma’s gone. I’m alone now.” Evie patted my back, consoling me. “You still have me, don’t you? I’ll always be with you.” I nodded. Evie and I were childhood friends, besties for life, and closer than sisters. Suddenly, her phone rang. It was her husband.

"I just feel my mouth is bitter guess I'm gonna be sick." Was I being too obvious something happened? I didn't know how to act. This was the first time I had to lie. I was always the 'good girl' like they had labeled me for years. A good girl doesn't sleep with her best friend whose girlfriend was her friend. If I was being obvious, Jason didn't show it and smiled, nodding. " So why are you here at this hour and wearing this sexy clothe?" His eyes twinkled, as his eyes drop to my clothe. I flushed, not because his words invoked the fire Asher had earlier but did the opposite.

Ashley pouts, her lips downturned but her eyes giving her away—disappointment and longing written all over her face. "Is the D really that good?" Chelsea asks, smirking over her coffee. "Better," Ashley says without hesitation, her tone so flat it's clear she's not exaggerating. I nearly choke on my donut. Fantastic. Now my appetite's gone. Nothing kills a sugar rush faster than hearing your best friend rate your brother's dick like it belongs on Yelp. Tuning them out before Ashley can scar me further, I slide my phone out of my pocket and open the group chat. My thumb hovers for a second, hesitation twisting in my gut like it always does when I feel like I'm bothering them while they're han

"Nat, Luke hasn't eaten for two days. He's lost so much weight. You can't just let him waste away like this." She took my hand, her voice dripping with sincerity. "You guys were everyone's couple goals. Don't let a little fight ruin that." I pulled my hand free and met her gaze, taking in the fake sweetness in her eyes. It was almost funny. I said evenly, "If you really care so much about him, why not go date him yourself?" Her smile faltered for half a second before snapping back into place. She explained, "I'm doing this for you. I'm your best friend. I can't just stand by and watch you screw this up."

Thinking back, I was such an idiot to have given so much for a worthless man. Lily probably thought I was upset when she saw me zoning out. She continued, "Hannah, I know I've betrayed you, but I really couldn't help myself. Vincent and I truly like each other." She sobbed and whimpered, making it seem like I was the one bullying her. Honestly, I'd stopped caring about things like first kisses long ago. This time around, I was done with both my best friend and first love. I said, "You two are a great match. I wish you both the best."

I pulled her out and pushed her out of the room, "I'll be out in the next ten minutes, don't rush me." Leslie groaned loudly, "it's not like you're going to get laid." I chuckled lightly but honestly my heart felt clenched, I really couldn't fantom the fact that I was really betraying my best friend and the worst thing was I couldn't stop. It felt like everytime I promised myself I wouldn't do anything stupid, his stupid charm kept working on me and pulling me back. "I'm so stupid," I muttered under my breath, "no...I'm a disgrace."

"You should know what's good for you. Because of you, Owen's lost his chance to be selected as an outstanding lecturer, and the university fired him, too." Only then did I learn that the university, aware of my capabilities, naturally believed me. They also investigated my claim that Owen had falsified data, which led to his termination. No wonder these two had gone live to ruin my reputation. "Mommy, you helped bad people hurt Daddy! You're a bad person, too!" Leah yelled, pointing at Bertha, her face full of fury. "Who do you think gave birth to you?" Bertha snapped. She gave Leah a hard shove, sending her crashing onto the floor.

I clenched my fists and fired back, "Didn't you say you were still on a business trip? Why are you here at a bar with Samuel?" Before Roxanne could speak, Samuel piped up, "Austin, you can't blame Roxy. She only lied to you because she was afraid you'd get jealous." "Shut the hell up!" It was the first time I'd ever shouted that loudly. "Roxanne, you keep saying he's your best friend, but he's a guy! And you just let him feel you up like this? If someone didn't know better, they'd think you two were a couple, fooling around in a bar right in front of everyone! Did you ever think about how I'd feel?"

I got incredibly excited just thinking about how Mira was going to bring my fake ID to register her marriage at the courthouse tomorrow. The truth was, I had saved her conversations with Daniel, Kevin, and Felix from the very first time I snooped through her laptop. I had also used an alternate account to befriend the three of them. Feeling like a genius, I added Daniel, Kevin, Felix, and Theodore into the same group chat. "Who are you? You didn't say anything even though you're the one who added me. What are you trying to accomplish by adding me into this group chat with these strangers?"

Julia's smile stiffened, but she quickly pressed on awkwardly, "T-There's no need to be so set on it, right? What if you regret it later?" I balled my fist but said nothing. The biggest regret of my life was becoming her friend. Julia was an orphan, so Tyler and I had always been very tolerant of her. Even though Tyler had warned me subtly that Julia was manipulative and calculating, I always made excuses for her. I told him that, given her rough upbringing, it was understandable she might come across as a bit extreme. In the end, my kindness became the very thing that hurt both Tyler and me. In my previous life, Julia had claimed to feel sorry for the orphan but resented her own inability t
