FATES WILL

CHAPTER 37: spill!!

Lexi's POV;

"Actually, I was on my way to see your brother, before I changed my mind and called you."

I looked towards Drea, only to see her mouth agape, totally confused and looking like she just ate shit. I couldn't help the laugh that escaped my mouth.

She looked funny alright!!

"I ll ignore you laughing at me just now, but explain, what the hell is going on here???"

Drea could rupture my eardrums at the volume she shouted! I could understand though. She must be anxious to know what happened.

So, I recalled everything from begining to end for her.

"So your the 'z', he keeps trying to find."   Ya, I told her about that too. 

"I'm guessing I am, although he really shouldn't try to find me. Plus, are you not mad I hid something so important from you?"

"Why would I be mad. I do feel a bit sad, but I know that somethings are hidden for the best. And, don't worry, my brother won't get a thing out of me. My lips are sealed."

She copied that gesture we usually see in movies to demonstrate her lips are really sealed. Bringing her index and thumb together from one end of the lips to the other. It succeeded in making me smile. A smile filled with relief. I was really worried she might feel betrayed or such.

"Now, tell me what you meant by you were on your way to my brother before changing your mind, hmm??"

I was kinda hoping she'd forget I ever said that.

"You know how your brother was chasing me?"

"Uh huh, it was pretty OBVIOUS that he was."

"Well, I always had a certain attraction to him from the very begining. But, when we had to fight each other, and having to hurt him even the tiniest bit....it drove me crazy. I realized then that...my attraction to him..might not be just a simple attraction anymore. Uh, I don't think I'm even making sense now, am I?"

"Don't worry, we're both weird. I can keep up with you easily, so continue. Go on, continue!" Bestie, I can see your eyes shining here!!

"Anyway, I think I really like him. No, I'm sure I really really like him. I've never felt this way towards a guy before. It just feels so weird."

I focused my eyes on Drea again, as I hoped she would give me some advice or something. But she asked me something I was trying to avoid answering to, instead.

"So, were you going to my brother because you wanted to tell him that? Hmmm???" She wiggled her brows at me playfully, leading me to blush furiously. I know I look like a ripe tomato right now.

"Hahahaaha, why are you blushing so hard just because I guessed that much. You haven't even confessed! You're too innocent. Oh my gosh, my stomach hurts."

I looked gloomily at my best friend who was pretty much rolling on the floor clutching her belly and laughing as if she inhaled a ton of nitrous oxide (laughing gas).

After a whole two minutes, I couldn't hold it in anymore. How can someone laugh for so long non stop and be fine. There was nothing that funny to laugh about to begin with.

"Ahem, while I was waiting for you to come over, I designed a gown for the mafia ball. For myself that is." That got her to jump back up.

"Wait, are you telling me you'll be joining us at the ball??" She looked at me incredulously.

"Yaa, I'll be joining this time. That is, unless I change my mind in the three remaining months before it arrives!"

"No way am I allowing you to change your mind. Let me take a look at the dress...oh no..you changed the subject. We'll come back to this, but first things first. Are you planning to confess to my bro, or maybe tell him you're going to accept his feelings??"
