"It was just some guy ages ago while you were away..." I lied. How was I meant to explain to Eric that his devilishly handsome brother stole my first kiss...like oh hey Eric aka my crush did I tell you that one day when your brother wanted to get a girl off his back he just kissed me.
''Just some guy?'' He questioned, amused. I nodded my head, that was the only thing that I could come up with.
I mean he will completely flip it if I told him, I mean he will freak out even more now that Enzo and I are kind of friends?
''Do you still talk to this guy?" His curiosity was killing him. I tried not to laugh but I had to be serious.
''I do..." And right after those words escaped my lips he tensed a little and cleared his throat. I had to find something to change the subject.
''So what were you thinking of?'' my lips managed to say but I instantly regretted those words.
"uh...I meant...why are you doing that when you can get Ashley to uhm like....sleep with you?'' Really lex, you're going to talk to him about his sex life.
Aren't you the intelligent one?
He was shocked from my sudden outburst. He cleared his throat and awkwardly ran his fingers through his hair.
''Because...she was busy...''
''I actually didn't want to know that Eric I hate the b*tch.'' I laughed.
2 weeks later.
"aaah Enzo! No no no, you are not meant to burn the bloody onions!' I swatted him away from the pan because he was too busy typing away on his phone.
Its been 2 weeks since the awkward encounter with Eric. Ever since then, I've been busy with school and hanging out with my friends and as you can see hanging out with Enzo.
I thought about being a mature person so I let Eric know about Enzo and I being friends. He didn't understand at first but I told him about the time I stayed in New York but I only told him how he had my back and how he was friendly with me.
At first Eric didn't warm up to the idea but in the end he was alright with it.
Eric was still with Ashley. It affected me alot though but Enzo was around to keep me from being the jealous individual I am.
I was at peace, I barely had any nightmares after that night.
Enzo was good to be with.
We still had our annoying moments, but we pushed passed them. For a couple of days Enzo had to go to the city and back to deal with business and at nights he would always be busy. So the only time we could 'hang out' was after I got back from school.
"Enzo if you're not going to help just go sit down and get out of my way." I waved him away as I took over the pasta sauce.
He sighed and sat on the dinning table and kept typing away on his phone.
"And for goodness sakes who are you texting?!" I half shouted as my eyes were focused on reviving the pasta sauce.
"It's business, Sebastian emailed me a couple of tasks he had finished so I could approve." He said keeping his eyes glued to his phone.
I groaned and put the sauce on medium heat and turned back to Enzo.
I thought for a second.
How did we even end up like this?
A couple of weeks ago we were ready to rip each other's throats out.
What's changed in these past couple of weeks?
