Karlie's P.O.V

All it took was me opening my mouth and Taylor and I had a bet on our hands. It's been a running joke within our friend circle for months that we are #endGoals because we are Kaylor but although everyone knows that we are joking it seems that some friends still think that there is a possibility that it's for real.

I was over at Taylors for a baking day, we've been doing them frequently since she finished the 1989 tour and broke up with Adam and then the rebound with Tom that saw her gallivant around the world but all of that came crashing down when Taylor realised that the only reason Tom was with her was for her fame, I mean I can't blame him. Ever since I've been friends with Taylor all of my social medias have increased and I get followed by paparazzi a lot more. But now that we both have a bit of downtime we've been spending it baking and discussing options going forward for both of us, I'd really like to continue with my degree in computer science and coding and Taylor is talking of taking some online college courses which sound fantastic too.

This particular day we were halfway through making chocolate cupcakes when Taylor suddenly says, "how many of our friends do you think believe that we kissed at the Haim concert?" I pause mid mix and look at her. "Like as in we actually made out like the tabloids said?" she nods and I put down my spoon and turn to look at her fully. "Do you really think that they believe it? I mean do they not think of us as only best friends?" I question looking at her and Taylor puts the greased muffin pan down and looks at me. "I don't know Kar, that's why I'm asking you." Taylor states making me smile,
"I don't know I guess a few of them why? What are you thinking?" I watch as Taylor grins then walks to her notepad and grabs it and a pen. "I'm making a list of all the people we think would believe it I've got the most amazing prank in mind." I roll my eyes because Taylor's pranks are never actually funny and usually something goes wrong.

"Okay, so who is going on the list?" I question walking over to the counter and sitting down, Taylor joins me too. "Well Haim seem to think there is something because they always bring it up so I guess, Este, Danielle, Alanna to start it off who else do you think?" I think thoughtfully for a minute and then I said, "well Gigi is always asking me if I like you and when I say I do she smiles and looks at Zayn and the two of them smile so I guess Zayn and Gigi can go on the list, how about Austin?" Taylor looks at me, "Austin, as in my brother Austin?" I nod and Taylor grins and writes down the three names I suggested. "Maybe we should have a party and try to shock them all, are you interested?" I find myself nodding and Taylor grins. I think about the conversation that we just had and I'm not really sure where this is going to go but I'm interested to find out.

Taylor's P.O.V

The night of February 13th is cooler than normal but I've asked Karlie to come over a few hours earlier than everyone else so that we can discuss tonight. I've been thinking about this prank that I'd like to pull on everyone and I've come to the conclusion that if we kiss at the party it will weed out those who thought it was possible and those who didn't will be shocked. Austin is in town so I had to send him out for groceries to keep him busy so he doesn't find out about my grand plan.

"Tay, I'm here where are you?" Karlie calls out as I'm putting on my heels. I hear footsteps on the stairs and Karlie appears at my door and then comes in, not even worrying about the fact that I could be getting dressed. "So what's our master plan?"
"We're going to party hard and then we will kiss..." I say quickly but I don't miss Karlie's misstep which causes her to almost face plant down onto the bed next to me. "W-what do you mean?" she stammers as I quickly explain our plan and she slowly accepts it and we agree to make it spur of the moment we quickly set up and Austin returns greeting Karlie with a hug and I smile knowing that he will probably be one to accept and cheer at our kiss. Karlie thinks that only Austin, Gigi and Este will be excited at our kiss while I think that our whole list will celebrate. We've pre-arranged that because tomorrow is Valentines Day that the winner gets to tweet from the losers phone.

The night goes off without a hitch but by 10.30pm Karlie and I still haven't kissed and it's getting closer and closer to when the first few people will start to leave. I look around the room and catch Karlie's eye and we smile at each other, it's a silent acknowledgement that we are about to kiss and either stun the crowd of people at the party or make them clap. At 11.13pm Karlie appears next to me making me smile at her, she cues for the music to cut and as I turn to ask where the music is Karlie grabs me and dips me, she follows me down with her lips and as my eyes close the last thing I recall is pale pink lips meeting my own. I groan into the kiss as Austin and Gigi let out a whoop and Este walks over and grabs Karlie bringing her into a large hug and she says, "it's about bloody time!" But before she can say more Karlie grins and throws her hands up and says, "GOTCHA! It's a prank." I know that my face must be bright red from what many think as embarrassment and to be honest I am embarrassed, embarrassed that I enjoyed the kiss as much as I did.

Almost all at once the crowd from the party breaks out into laughter as Karlie waves to everyone and says, "party's over folks time to head home." Everyone begins to gather their things as Karlie slithers up to me with a large smile on her face, "looks like I won the bet. Hand it over." I smirk at her and promise that as soon as everyone leaves that she can tweet what she likes. When the Haim sisters all leave I hand Karlie my phone and with that she tweets out possibly the most controversial tweet of 2017. "Be my galantine?" As she hands me my phone back I know that she's just opened the largest can of worms but at the end of the day, a bet is a bet and no one will ever know the truth behind it, unless they guess.
