Her Best Friend

don't you know him?

'O.M.G.... am I seeing clearly' I said stepping of the car as I came in contact with Claire and her cousin.

'uhmmmm......... good day' Claire told me giving a warm hug as usual

'can someone tell me what is going on here, is he really your cousin' I asked Claire glancing once again at Zayn a one directioner.

'yeap...he really is, he's actually from mum's side' she made it clear to me as I went ahead to greet him giving him one of those my warm smiles'

'its a pleasure having you here'

'thank you .... I guess you are one of my fans' he asked me giving me a confused look

'sure... anything the matter'

' not really...u wasn't expecting this reaction from you, I thought you would be shouting and taking some random pictures of me having seen me.

'seriously, maybe Claire didn't tell you anything about me. I'm not in the culture of doing that, I'm kinda really different from others' I told him before realising that Tanny was already taking shots of me making him and Claire to let out a giggle.

'and what's the giggle about if I may ask' Zayn asked sounding kinda strict with a mixture of a bit of rudeness.

'sorry.... that was really nothing' they said in unison. we all helped as I showed him round the compound pointing out some places that couldn't be know at first sight. after a few tour round the house Tanny knew exactly what I was about to do and to avoid this he named the amount on the price tag to him...'whoa it was much higher than what I thought'.

'is that not a bit too low for this building, I'm sure a lot of money was put in before it could be put up' he told us as he paid us what he had in mind.... seriously was $64000 too small for the house, that never crossed my mind.

'this building is quite solid and really pretty, the token I gave was little for this' he said nodding and smiling for the first time since he came there.

'if you need any safety warranty or licence you could inform us and we will get it set for you'

'nah that wont be necessary, I trust my cousin and with that I doubt I shouldn't trust her friends'

'thank you for helping me out' I turned and spoke to Tanny and Claire who were busy chip chatting...

'we're always here for you, anytime and anywhere' they said again in unison. this two were really getting me nervous with their smile and secret plans.

'we should be on our way now' Tanny told Claire and her cousin holding close to him and making me smile sheepishly.

'olryt, thank you very much I really appreciate' Zayn said while Claire nodded with that her babyish face.

'get into the car swity' Tanny told me sweetly as he opened the passengers seat for me

'thank you' I told him although I wanted driving him home

'its just some minutes past 7, ill just take you out for dinner then I promise to drive you home immediately' he said as if though asking for permission or my opinion. he drove past our usual eatery and I kept wandering where he was headed to but I refused to ask him because I knew he wasn't even going to answer me, just then he came to a halt in front of Manville's Hotel en' suite..... whoa...this is a real big restaurant

'why did you decide to stop here'

'I want to give you a treat tonight' he told me making my mind scan really far

'don't be scared nothing is gonna happen to you, I will ensure that you are safe in here' he told me noticing my facial expression

'uhmm... I wasn't scared' I lied biting my lips

'you're such a wonderful best friend' I told him as I pulled him into a hug placing a peck on his cheeks that refused to be fluffy. 

'you may now take the lead my lady' he told me with a smile on his face.

'I'm sorry if I took you by surprise' Tanny told me as he led me to a table already set for two

'no need for the apology, I think I am ok with that, but why the sudden surprises'

'nothing really, just wanted making you feel relaxed at least from school work and some family stress'

'uh... that's really nice of you' I told him as I opened my dish and his.

'awnnn, thanks for the hospitality' he joked giving one of those his smiles. I had almost gone half way into my food before realizing that Tanny hasn't even tasted his, but was just staring at the food with a blank expression.

'is there any thing bothering you dear' I asked him making him come out of his thought, but he didn't did not reply as he stood up

'talk to me Tanny, are we leaving already' I asked him really confused of his sudden behaviour. he stooped low, getting on his knees he brought out a glittering box fro his pocket and opened it, how did he manage to put it there and I didn't see it.

'will you give e that opportunity to put this ring on you finger as a sign of love. would you please accept to marry me? Tanny asked me taking me quickly by y steps. I never thought of this, I knew I was having serious feelings for him but I thought he was only asking me to be his girlfriend not fiancée.

'uhm... I'm sorry.. I knew it right from the start that it wasn't the right idea, there are other important persons on your mind, sorry for bringing it up' he said closing the glittering box and getting up. I didn't say anything I was shock in my own way, then why was he pretty sure I was gonna tell him a no. he just kept pacing up and down causing some sort of attention, I stood up immediately and walked up to him

'I didn't say a no to your request, did I?'

' knew that was exactly what you wanted to say, I didn't just want to here that now' he said making me feel bad for putting him in that condition. but he was getting me wrong, my silence didn't mean a no

'no Tanny, is that what you want to here, that really a great idea' I told him as I walked back to where I was sitting as tears began falling down my cheeks. I didn't know what came over me, but I wasn't happy that he was thinking that way when I was dying to fall on his chest everyday and night. he walked up to me

'I'm really sorry Tracia, I didn't mean to ruin the day like this, I know I started all this....but'

'no Tanny why are you misunderstanding my expressions'

'there is nothing more for me to understand than to acknowledge the fact I....'

' I love you Tanny' I told him shutting him from whatever he was about to blab

'you must be kidding me right' he asked me giving me an expression.' why didn't you tell me this long before now' he told me placing a soft kiss on my hair

'because everything has a perfect time' I told him returning his kiss as I blushed.

'thank you for giving me the chance' he told me pulling me to him. 'permit me to do this' he told me as I found his lips on mine. he cupped my face with his soft has and kissed me the way I have never been kissed before, I didn't attempt pulling y self away as he took full  controls of my lips, then I found my self in the hotel room
