Closing the recipe app I had open browsing vegan recipes for dinner, I finished making lunch for Karlie and I. Setting some cutlery and plates down on my dining table I danced around in circles to Selena's voice blasting over my huge speakers. Grinding around the kitchen to myself I yelled the seductive lyrics "WHEN YOUR READY COME AND GET IT NAH NAH NAH NAH NAH NAH". A knock on the door sent a flush running through my spine as I turned the music down, running like a little kid to the door. Opening the door my mouth drooped involuntarily, her legs went forever, covered in black skin tight Lycra, her top half only covered by a tight crop top with a loose gym jacket covering her arms and back. Her abs rippled with every breathe, her whole body gleaming with sweat. Looking up to her face her green eyes were alive with excitement, somehow even greener with the slight rose shade of her cheeks, her hair in a messy bun above her head with little hairs falling out perfectly. She is perfect. "Okay well if your done checking me out babe is it okay if I come in? Karlie teased, her playful smirk breaking me out of my trance. What even just happened Taylor dude get your shit together stop being weird, "wha.. What.. No Karlie I wasn't .. I was... Your just... Come inside" I stammered as Karlies smirk grew even larger than it had before, her green eyes alight with amusement. "It's okay babe, I know I'm hot, you don't have to deny it" Karlie teased once more, yes you are kloss... OH MY GOD WHY DID I THINK THAT WHAT THE FUCK TAYLOR my brain screamed at me. "Hah your funny" I replied dryly, unable to come up with a response because she was right. Leading Karlie up the stairs to my bedroom in silence, I turned to her, her eyes still playful in a way that stirred something unknown in me. "Well..uh.. Here's the bathroom feel free to use anything you want, come down when your ready I've got lunch ready" I said to her, trying to avoid her devious smile. Something about her right now made my mouth dry and my heart feel unusual, what was happening. "Okay babe" Karlie said, her smile switching from a devious smirk to her 100% sunshine full grin, making me smile even larger. Walking down the stairs I heard the water turn on, turning my music up louder once more I felt...alive. I felt light, something felt different when Karlie was around. The song switched as I yelled in happiness over the loud music and began yelling along to the music. "STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM NOW WE HERE. STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM NOW THE WHOLE TEAM FUCKIN HERE" I yelled, swinging my hips around and moving my hands above my head to the music. Moving my butt around to the music I didn't hear the water stop running as I danced around the kitchen getting lunch out of the fridge. "STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM NO... KARRRRRLIEEEEEEEEE" I yelled running over to her and launching myself at her. My arms wrapped around her toned body, dressed in tiny shorts and a singlet top which showed off her biceps, her skin still warm from the shower. Letting go of her I continued to dance around the kitchen, looking over as the song finished seconds later Karlie stood staring at me with that same smirk once more, the smirk that made me feel something shift inside. "What? You can't handle my sexy moves kloss?" Deciding to play back this time, "no, your perfect" she said with a giggle. My cheeks burned red as I moved to get the last lunch items out of the fridge.
"Oh man Taylor that was great" Karlie said, leaning back in here chair and pushing her plate to the side. "So what did you want to do tonight?" I said, smiling at the girl across from me, "anything you want babe, I'm just happy to be here with you" Karlie said, her smile lighting up the entire room.

Stirring the vegetarian curry I had simmering on the stove I danced around the kitchen while Karlie had stepped out in the backyard to call her mum to let her know where she would be staying. The song switched to one of my favourites, "backseat freestyle" by Kendrick Lamar. Forgetting I wasn't alone I threw myself into the song, loudly rapping the lyrics while I crumped around the kitchen, grinding the air seductively as the song blared through the kitchen. I jumped slightly as a heard a voice begin to yell from behind me "I PRAY MY DICK GET BIG AS THE EFFIEL TOWER, SO I CAN FUCK THE WORLD FOR 72 HOURS". Karlie danced over to me, my mouth gaping as she rapped the lyrics with me, my cheeks blushing madly as her arms snaked around my waist from behind, mirroring the way I had danced mere moments ago. Her body pressed close to mine as our hips moved together, hair being flipped everywhere I turned to face her as the song ended. Her arms still around my waist we giggled as our breathing panted from dancing, our hair touching each other's faces I looked into her eyes. Her smile faded slightly as she looked deeper into my eyes, my pulse pounding in my ears. "oh crap the curry!!" I burst out, seperating myself from Karlie as I ran to the stove and stirred the curry, which was thankfully still in perfect condition. What the hell was that? What was that moment? I thought to myself, confused at what had just happened and why I was so elated.
"OHhhh I forgot babe, I brought us some wine for dinner" Karlie said with a smile behind me, getting two glasses out of the cupboard and placing them on the table. My heart still pounded uncomfortably in my chest, my brain muddled in confusion. That has never happened with any of my other best friends.... And I don't want it to....it wouldn't be right I thought, trying to decipher my source of confusion. But why does it feel natural with Karlie, why does it feel good? Why does my heart rate rise when she touches me?....my mind whirled.
Oh my god..do I have feelings for Karlie? Fuck.
