Best Friend's Boyfriend
Chapter 16

After watching one of the Avengers movie, we had headed out to the garden.

Ben was pretending to sleep, Jack was eating some crisps and I was feeding Luke grapes by chucking them and he caught them with his mouth.

Jack checked the time and nudged Ben. "Bennnnnn."

"What?"

"You have somewhere to be," Jack reminds.

"Where?" Ben yawns, pecking my cheek. "What time is it?"

"Five p.m. on a Saturday morning."

"Shït." Ben swears, his eyes widening. He scrambles up and kisses me before rushing indoors.

"What's up with him?" I ask Luke, throwing another grape at him which he swiftly catches.

"He's got to go to the airport again. He needs to test the flight in three different places. Mum and Dad insisted," Jack answers, as Luke shuts his mouth. "I actually have to test out flights too, but not for another half hour."

"Okay," I say, shrugging and going back to feed Luke.

-------

It's not till after Jack leaves, that a realisation sets in.

It didn't occur to me that I would be alone with Luke in a huge house for the night.

Luke.

As in, the guy who kissed me.

And I kissed back.

Meaning I cheated.

But-

Oh, forget it.

"Hey, you wanna eat take-out?" Luke suggests.

"Nah. I wanna taste your cooking," I smile.

"Come on, my teacher says I suck at cooking."

"Uh huh. Which is why you have three framed certificates for cooking class."

Luke rolls his eyes. "Those are just minor."

"Cook!" I demand. When he refuses again, I shake my head and pout. "Please?"

"Fine. Don't blame me if it sucks."

"I bet it won't."

"What do you want me to make?"

"I dunno, surprise me, what's your special?"

"I make pretty good pasta," Luke shrugs.

"Pasta it is, then," I conclude, grinning.
