It’s been a couple weeks since I broke up with Amber. My stress levels have been way down, apart from the fact that since Amber and I aren’t together now, all the other girls in the school won’t leave me alone.

Something funny that happened? Riley somehow managed to break her right arm. No one knows how that happened. All of us laughed at the beginning which made her ignore us for a good 2 days before she accepted our apology. The teachers allow her to use her laptop to write notes and stuff and other people to write important things.

Right now I was heading over to get help for my science test and have her check my history paper. I walked down the steps and turned the key in the lock. I found her sulking on the couch. She was fiddling with her cast, looking depressed and bored.

“Hey Lee”

“Hey” she said without looking up

“Stop touching it, you might mess it up” I sat down next her and dropped my bag on the floor.

She snorted. “My arm is broken, how much more damage can I do?”

“Good point. Do you think you’ll still be able to help me study?”

“Yeah, sure. You’d just have to turn the pages for me and stuff like that”

“Okay”

5 hours later......

“I’m done”’ I said putting my stuff away.

“Alright”

I did things for her while I was here. I was being her servant for the night, it’s the least I could do.

She started falling asleep on my shoulder.

“You should go to sleep”

“I know. But I need to change and I can’t”

“So how did you get dressed this morning?”

“Dani helped me and she’s staying over at a friends house for the weekend. Nobody else will be home”

I thought it over in my head. “I’ll help you. It’s not like we have any other option”

“Fine”

She used her left hand to pull out some shorts and a tank top out of a drawer.

“So, how are we going to do this?”

“Well first let’s get this sling off”

I eased her arm out the sling so that I could move her arm around.

Thankfully she was wearing a really loose shirt.

I started with her right arm and slowly pulled her arm out of her sleeve. I wasn’t really looking directly at her after her shirt came off.

“Now my jeans, guy”

“Don’t rush me”

“Well excuse me for being sleepy. It’s the stupid pain medication”

I unbuttoned her jeans and pulled them down so that she could step out of them. I made the mistake of looking at her.

Here is a girl standing right in front of me in her bra and panties. At this moment, the fact that she’s my bestfriend isn’t really registering.

“Uh...um....I..”

She laughed a little.

“Is this making you uncomfortable, Jake?”
