My bestfriend from childhood [Completed]

Chapter Thirteen

"We're late" I called from the bottom of the stairs "We need to get moving asap"

Calling him didn't help at all, he still took his own sweet time to get ready. We both got ready at the same time, I managed to slip into a white puff sleeve mock neck sweater with a mini black floral dress with tie shoulders on top of it, put a little of make up on, tied my hair into a low pony tail with a few strands framing my face, gold strings earrings, then slipped my white sneakers on with long socks. I managed to do all of that in less than an our when Kyle couldn't even manage to simply take a shower and get dressed to go.

After another 15 minutes, Kyle walked downstairs in a pair of jeans, black t-shirt, black bomber jacket, and sneakers. It was something he could have done in 10 minutes instead of taking an hours and a half to do so.

"You took all that time for that?" I asked "Kyle, I could get ready for my own wedding in half of the time you just took"

"Why the fuck are you in such a goddamn rush?" He asked annoyed "It's just a hangout"

"Because it's important to me" I said unbothered "You might not be taking this seriously, but I am"

"I am, I was getting ready and trying to look good to impress everyone, wasn't I?" He said.

"Yeah, well you take more time get ready than a girl"

He let out a small chuckle "Yeah, well there's a reason girls run after me" he said arrogantly "Because I take the time to look good for others"

"No" I turned to him "You are not going to pull that off today. You are not going the be a flirt around the girls today. I will literally kill you if you even thought for a second to flirt with Chloe. She and whoever is coming today are off limits. I don't need this type of drama outside of school"

He put both his hands up in surrender "Okay, okay. I promise" he said.

"Whatever" I told him "Can we leave now or do you need another 50 minutes to decide if you should flip your hair to the other side?"

"You're dramatic" he said before leading the way to the car.

"Can I asked you something?" Kyle asked when we got into the car.

I nodded as I put my seat belt on.

"What do you see in him?" He asked.

I turned to him, taking a couple of think before I replied to his question "There's a lot of reasons I guess, I can't really pinpoint of specific reason. He's a really sweet guy and really caring too. He funny, corny type of funny, and he makes really giggly when I am around him"

"That sounds like how anyone can make you feel" he said.

"I am happy with him "Why can't you accept that without making comments and judgement like this?"

"I don't like how he makes you happier than I do" he said honestly, as if he wasn't even talking to me anymore "I've literally never seen you act like this around anyone before"

"Obviously because I never dated anymore who I could act like this with. He is the first boy I have ever dated and felt like this about" I told him honestly "But you do make me happy, Kyle, it's just that it is a different way. He doesn't make me happier, he make happy differently"

When we reached the bowling Ally, I grabbed his hands to stop him from leaving the car "No fighting. No being mean. No smart comments, and no flirting" I told him.

"Okay. Promise" he said with an eye roll.

With that final warning, I followed Kyle into the busy bowling ally. It was as crowded as usual during a weekend night. There was a few people from school and some other familiar faces from all over town. The music was loud, but it wasn't loud enough to cover the sound of the bowling balls hitting the wooden track.

After getting out shoes, I instantly spotted Luke and everyone else sitting around and talking at track 4. It was the usual people, plus Isaac's girlfriend and her mean friend. Luke was the only one standing, more like pacing, while everyone else was laughing and joking around in their seats.

With a smile, Luke welcomed me with a hug and a peck on the lips.

"Hey, Beautiful" he said before placing another kiss on my cheek.

"Hey" I smiled before letting go and turned to Kyle "Guys, this is my best friend Kyle. Kyle this is everyone"

I pointed at each one of them as I introduced them to Kyle by name. He just gave them a small smile and a slight nod.

"Are you any good at this?" Chloe as Kyle as she pointed to the track.

He shrugged.

"He's being humbled, he literally won every game since we were 7" I said proudly "He could go pro is he wanted to"

Chloe grabbed his hand and tugged on it to track 3 "This one is on our team then. You get Luke, Issac, and Ally" she said.

Kyle gave me once last look before following Chloe.

Luke leaning down to my ear "I'm glad you came today"

I wrapped my arm around his side and smiled as I leaned into him "Me too. Please try to be nice to him. I really want this to work"

"Promise" he said.

I sat on the chair as Ally's friend took her turn. I couldn't help to watch Kyle, he was talking to Chloe and sometimes replying to comments thrown by Ally.

"Boo, you suck" I called to Rio after he hit the gutter for the second time. He was distracted by Chloe and Kyle being friendly.

"Oh shut it" he said as he took a seat at Chloe.

When Kyle got up to pick up the ball I did the same thing "Boo, you suck too" I called to Kyle.

He turned to me confused before giving me the middle finger with a small smile.

"He seems nice" Luke joked.

He game went on as we all joked and played around. Chloe was the one who mostly boned with Kyle and made the most conversation with, I appreciated the effort she was putting into making him feel welcomed and distracted while Luke would steal small kisses every now and then.

Kyle genuinely looked like he was having fun with Chloe as the bowled. They were joked and laughed a lot. It wasn't anything flirty or sexual. It was a simple funny and friendly exchange.

"Does this mean he likes us now?" Isaac asked as he dropped down next to me.

I shook my head "He just likes Chloe" I chuckled "Everyone likes Chloe. She's like a fairy with all her smiles and that happy energy around her. You should try that too, give off a more positive and nice vibe rather than scary foot ball player one"

He looked at me offended "I do not give that vibe off"

"You do" Luke said "Everyone else here will agree on that statement so save yourself the embarrassment"

I let out a small giggle before excusing myself to get my drink "I need a drink" I told them "Anyone else?"

They both shook their head before I made my way to the snack bar. I settled on an a lemon ice tea, and stood there watching the lovely old lady behind the counter making it. With a smiled, I thanked her before taking my drink.

I felt my heart drop into my stomach at the sight of everyone standing around Kyle on the floor. I placed my drink back on the counter and rushed to where he was as I pushed pass everyone. He was on the floor holding on to his ankle as he cussed.

"I don't know what happened" Chloe said "It was his turn and he suddenly just slipped on hurt his ankle. He might've broke his ankle"

"I'll bring the car around" Issac said before running off.

"Oh god" I said panicking "Are you okay? Are you hurting?"

He moved his arm away from when I tired to touch it "Fuck no. It hurt as hell" he said.

"We need to get you to the car" Luke said as he and Rio leaned down and help him up with both of his arms around their shoulders "Grab his stuff. We'll meet you in the hospital"
