(Sequel to My Brother's Best Friend)
DISCLAIMER: YOU MUST READ THE FIRST BOOK FIRST
Three years ago Bethany Carrington got pregnant at the age of 16 by Blake Matthews, her brother's best friend. Towards the middle of her pregnancy she miscarried. Sh...
"Are you sure you're ok with watching Emma while I go shopping for this bridal shower" I ask Aaron as he plays with Emma
"I got this" He states
"If you say so" I shrug
I go to my room and pick out a pastel crop top with hawaiian print, high waisted white shorts, a denim jacket, and some black wedges.

I brush my hair and french braid it so it's out of my face. I come back out from my room and grab my purse and keys. I kiss Emma on her cheek and leave her with Aaron. I drive to Josh and Ashley's house while silently hoping Blake and Olivia isn't there. I sigh as I turn the radio up. I drown my thoughts out by singing along with the radio.
When I park in front of Josh's house I cut the engine off and groan when I see Blake's car in the driveway. I take a deep breath to calm my nerves before walking up to the door. I open it and walk into the house.
"Josh?" I call as I walk through the door
"Up here!" He calls from the steps
I walk upstairs and walk past the guest room. I faintly hear two voices talking about something in a hushed tone. I ignore it and walk straight ahead to Josh and Ashley's room. I knock softly before walking in.
"Hey!" Ashley smiles
"Hey" I say "Uh... you ready?"
"Yeah I just have to get my shoes" She smiles before walking towards her closet
"I'll meet you downstairs" I say
I quietly close their door, careful not to indicate someone's here. I turn around and bump into a muscular chest. I breath hitches as I look up to see Blake. Our eyes lock and quickly look away before I get hypnotized. I quickly walk around him muttering a sorry. I walk down to the kitchen and find Olivia walking out from the kitchen with a bowl of strawberries. She sends me a smile as Blake walks down a few moments later.
"Hey" She smiles towards me
"Hey" I say
"Are we still on for tomorrow?" She asks
"Yeah" I nod
"Great! Bethany invited me to go shopping" She says to Blake
"Oh really?" He asks looking from her to me and then back to her
"Yeah!" Olivia chirps "Well I'm going to go get a shower and get ready before we go out for lunch"
Olivia pecks Blake on his lips before walking upstairs. I avoid Blake's stare and walk towards the kitchen. I feel his eyes follow me and then I suddenly hear footsteps follow me. I try to ignore the fact that he's following me to the kitchen and look for a bottle of water. I open the cap and he stands in front of me. I suddenly get self conscious since he's now watching me drink from the bottle.
