My Bestfriend Loves Me (Completed)

Chapter 11

Aaron. Aaron. Aaron. I need to find that guy. Only if I knew what his real name was, things would have been easier. It's all my fault, I was the one who asked him to not tell his real name. You are dumb Adaline! I don't even know if he was from our school or just a plus one at the party but I so wished we would have exchanged our real names instead of the fake ones.

My head was filled with Aaron's thoughts and I didn't even realize when I suddenly bumped onto someone. "Ouch. What the fuck Addie!" Adam groaned in anger. I looked up to see my best friend completely pissed at me, I gave him a small smile to acknowledge his presence and continued walking ahead. "Did you just ignore me?" He asked and held my wrist in an attempt to stop me. My mind was so clouded with the thoughts of Aaron that it couldn't register a single thing Adam said. "Where are you lost girl?" he asked in an irked tone.

I flashed a soft smile to him and said, "Nothing...What's up?" He narrowed his eyebrows, studying my face and I knew he would understand something is wrong so I immediately started a conversation to distract him. "So how was the masquerade party? I didn't see you anywhere."

He smiled cutely, as if remembering the night in his head and said, "It was nice. How could you see me? We were all wearing masks remember?"

Should I tell Adam about the mysterious guy? Maybe not.

Adam continued studying my face for a little while longer and was about to open his mouth to ask something when I again popped a question. "How many girls did you flirt with that night Adam?" He rolled his eyes at me and said, "Yeah yeah, that's the only thing you expect from me."

"Isn't that your thing? Fooling around with girls? I'm sure you didn't miss your chance to do the same at the party."

He laughed and shook his head at my comment. "Why do I feel like you are hiding something from me Addie?"

I immediately replied with a 'No' because I didn't want to tell Adam anything about that night yet. I know I suck at lying so I did the first thing that came into my mind - lie about getting late for class and run towards my locker to escape from Adam's scrutinizing looks.

Before I could make my way to my locker, Racheal spotted me and immediately started firing me with her questions. "Adaline Williams. I'm your Bestfriend. I know the face you make when you are hiding something from me. So just open that pretty mouth of yours. What are you hiding?" Her face was red by now, I mentally decided to confess everything to her because there was no escape from the wrath of Racheal.

"Okay fine. I'll tell you but promise me that you won't tell Adam about this," I pleaded.

"Promise." She said and gave me her little finger for a pinky swear.

The rest of the time went into explaining everything that happened at the party, how I met a mysterious guy named Aaron, how we danced and exchanged some secrets. I also admitted to her that maybe I like him a bit. This made her mouth turn into an O shape. "How can you fall in love with someone you just met Adaline?"

"Geez, I don't love him, Rae. I just like him."

"But how?"

"I don't know Rae. He seemed so familiar. It felt as if we were meant to meet yesterday."

"Shut up with this destiny shit okay. You know I hate that kind of talk."

"But I'm serious Rae. The little time that we spent together was just so amazing that I can't even describe it to you."

"Okay. Stop! I don't believe in this destiny or soul mate shit. Anyways how are you going to find him?"

"I don't know. I haven't thought about it. I could keep a contest. What say?"
