FATES WILL

CHAPTER 29: afraid of falling for him

Lexis POV;

After parting with Alessandro, I met up with Drea. She sent me a location to meet, where she was waiting, leaning on her red ford mustang. Clearly she prefers pink, so I never got why her car was red. Why am I even bothering with unimportant stuff.

I shook my head a little and ran to Drea. "Did you wait long?" I asked her as I reached her side. "Nope, not really. I pretty much just got here. Now forget that and tell me what's going on with you and my brother!"

"Uh..!" Did Drea also know. She probably did, didn't she?!"

"How did you offend my brother? Most importantly how are you? Did he do something to you? Please tell me you're alright!"

I was a bit lost as Drea continued to blabber. Ok! Did she misunderstand something here?

"I'm fine...and I don't think I've offended your brother in any way."

I was a bit guilty seeing Dreas worried expression. Don't tell me she'd been overthinking and worrying for nothing all this time!

"Wait! Then why did my brother meet up with you? Oh..damn! Was my first guess actually the truth? He likes you doesn't he? " Drea shrieked loudly making me cover my ears.

"Wow girl. You sure can change your mood easily!" I looked at the now totally chearful Drea with hearts spilling out of her eyes.

"Duh..this is after all such a big thing!" And there she goes shrieking again. I haven't even said anything! Don't come to weird conclusions on your own woman!

I was practically screaming at my bestie in my mind, since she wasn't giving me a chance to speak at all!

"Oh this is just soooo great!! Sarò una damigella d'onore! Ci sarà così tanto da fare durante il matrimonio, e oh dio! Il fratello le ha già dato l'anello? Ok ... calmami. Potrei pensare un po 'lontano qui! (I'll be a bridesmaid! There will be so much to do during the wedding, and oh god! Did brother give her the ring yet? Ok..calm down me. I may be thinking a bit far here!)"

I stared at Drea who at some point of time had started blabbering in Italian. I couldn't get a word she was saying!
I was a bit curious really. This isn't the first time something like this happened. Whenever Drea is too excited, she goes on blabbering in her mother tongue. I guess I 'll just wait till she's done.

"Ok sorry about that." I looked at Drea who was smiling sheepishly at me. I raised a brow at the now calm friend of mine. "Really now? It seems your finally ready to listen to something I say!"

"Hehe..you can't blame me. Now give me all the details. Don't leave out any thing young lady!"

I felt bad seeing her expectant expression. She really hopes for this, doesn't she?

I took in a deep breath before spilling the beans. "Your brother confessed to me. He.." "Yay!!! I knew it! He does like you!" Drea cut me off before I could finish speaking.

God! Guilt is going to eat me alive at this rate. "I regected him!" I shouted loudly, drawing a bit of attention from passing pedestrians. I didn't bother with that as I saw Dreas happy expression wilting.

"D!" I spoke slowly to my best friend. "Is it because you don't like him, or because if the rivalry?"

I looked into Dreas eyes and answered honestly. "The rivalry."

"Oh. Don't worry I understand. Did he decide to give up?"

"No..and that's what's worrying me! I don't think we should get together..but he just..if this continues..I'm afraid.."

"You'll fall for him." Drea completed my unfinished sentence. I didn't want to admit it, but that was the truth.

"I feel like having some ice-cream, join me?" I asked Drea while changing the subject, thankfully she followed along.

I was really surprised to see the 2 k+ reads. Thank you guys so much, and although I want to give an extra chapter, for certain reasons, I cannot give any extra chapters for the time being.
Anyway..hope you liked the chapter!
