In Love with My Bestfriends Boyfriend

14 - Kiss me

Delilah's P.O.V

All through English I couldn't stop thinking about this 'deal' that Austin proposed. I mean what if this just turns into another one of his immature pranks! And what do I even get out of this deal anyways? The satisfaction of saying that 'I've kissed Austin' or to be noticed by the 'popular' people of the school.

To be honest, having a boyfriend or even a fake boyfriend, I don't know if I'm even ready for.

When I got home, the house was almost silent except for some quiet murmurs in the back room.

"Hello?"

All that I could make out from the murmurs was 'I have to go'.

"Hello.. Delilah."

My sad mother emerges with red rings around her eyes. Seeing her like this made my heart ache. She's been trying to get a divorce with Jace but he's being a total douche-bag and doesn't want to sign the papers and since he's locked away there's a limit to how much they can see eachother and what they can discuss because if things get too rowdy she'll be asked to leave.

After a few minutes of discussing what her lawyer had to say and how my day was I went up too my room.

Once upstairs I chucked my bag around the corner not giving a crap that there's a laptop in there, pull out my phone and flop on my bed.

Scrolling through my Instagram feed I find nothing but garbage. Just a crap ton of big accounts giving shoutout and Jacob Satorious hate accounts.

After about 20mins of searching I was just about to throw my phone at the wall in defeat when I find a cute couple photo. Then another and another. Jennifer and Noah. Copious amounts of kissy and lovie-dovie photos posted on Jennifer's private account.

The string of loving photos brought tears to my eyes. Noah was happy and looked like he didn't give two shits about my feelings. Well I guess Jennifer and him were made for eachother.

I know that photos like this should even phase me but it does. I know it's a bad choice what I'm thinking but it's the only way to get back or make Noah think that I'm over him. My mind is set.

Quickly switching apps on my phone to contacts and searching for Austins name.

" Yeah Austin. It's a deal... "

"I knew you'd come around. I'll see you at 10:00 to discuss a few things."

And that was the end of the phone call. There was no turning back now. Looking at the time I see I have 3 hours to get ready,

After what felt like an eternity in the shower just scrubbing my annoying ass hair I hop out and head for my room and began to rummage my wardrobe for something to wear that wasn't sweatpants.

What I ended up with was a grey shirt with a green vest over and some black jeans paired with my favourite black bag. I curled my hair slightly and put my 'face' on.

I waited anxiously for when Austin would come. I didn't know what types of things he needs to discuss. Finally the doorbell rang and I flings it open.

"Hey girlfriend..." Austin said with his jerk smile...

THE NEXT DAY

"I don't know if I can do this." I exclaim.

Austin and I were sitting in his car waiting in the school parking lot. I was freaking out over whether us pretending to be dating was such a good idea anyway.

"Ok calm down Dee, you'll be fine. We only have to act couply when Jillian and whoever your guy is around. Now I'm gonna hope out and open your door like a gentleman."

We hoped out but "casually" waited by the car chatting. I put the word 'casually' in quotes because really I'm a Nervous wreck wondering if I can even pull this off.

Out of the corner of my eye, I see two familiar faces walking passed. Noah and Jennifer. And they are looking this way

"Kiss me"

"What!?"

"Just.."

I pressed my face up against Austin's. I feel as he loosened up after the initial shock and moved in. After a couple seconds I pulled away and looked around. No sign of Noah or Jen.

"Wow for someone who five minutes ago wasn't even sure if she could do it, that was one hell of a kiss. B. You can do better."

"Excuse me. Did you just grade me on my kissing? I'm sorry I haven't kissed as many people as you!"

"Dude relax and I'll show you how it's done because Jillian is coming so pucker up princess.."

Austins face moved close to mine and our lips touched.

"Hey we made it to seven seconds that time. That was better. We'll work on that...."

I didn't really know how to respond to that so i didn't. I throw my bag over my shoulder and turned to see a very pissed looking Jillian in the distance. I just put my head down and walked in the opposite direction...
