My brother's best friend | Completed |

Seventeen ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"I knew it!" Brynn cheered, jumping up and down next to Chloe in the hallways of their school. A smile had formed on Chloe's face as she saw her best friend jumping with joy, but yet, she asked her to be quiet. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Brynn," Chloe said, poking Brynn in her side, "shut up, would you" The blonde laughed. "Oh no," Brynn said, shaking her head, "I was right, so let me enjoy the fact that I can predict the future and know you better than you know yourself." Brynn said, a smirk forming on her lips, "I knew you liked Ricky." She proudly said, holding her head high, "and you didn't want to admit it." She said, ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"But guess who's right?" She asked, raising her eyebrows up and down. Chloe bit her bottom lip and couldn't help but smile as she thought about what happened between her and Ricky the other day. They kissed, and oh my gosh it wasn't just a kiss. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀It was a kiss every girl would dream of to have. Especially with someone like him; someone who's sensitive, who cares, who's looking out for her. It was magical, and she can still feel the chills going down her spine as she closes her eyes. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"And why can't you just be happy for yourself, Chloe?" Brynn asked, "I haven't seen you this happy in days, so I would scream it from the rooftops if I were you," she chuckled. "Because it's not that easy," Chloe sighed, "Nick is going to freak..." Chloe said, "but I really- really like him." Chloe said. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"And the worst part of all, is that Nick is with us the whole entire time." Chloe groaned, "like, he still hasn't found an apartment yet, so that means that he's with us the whole day. So Ricky and I need to be careful with what we do or not, and what we say to each other so that my brother won't be suspicious." Chloe sighed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Well..." Brynn said, "I can Zack if he and Nick can do something sometimes, so that you two can be alone," Brynn said, "but don't no things I wouldn't do" She joked. "Bry!" Chloe shrieked, pushing Brynn on her shoulder while laughing. "I'm just joking!" She squealed, "but anyways, I need to go to my locker, I'll see you in class." Brynn winked, before turning around and walking away. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Chloe rolled her eyes and grabbed her purse, starting to walk through the hallways. She passed the janitor closet and suddenly someone grabbed her arm and pulled her inside. "What the-" Chloe screamed, but someone covered her mouth, "sssh-" the guy said, "it's just me" He laughed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Chloe needed some time to adjust that it was just Ricky standing in front of her, and he let go of her mouth, Chloe slapping him on his shoulder. "I almost got a heart- attack," she whisper- shouted. "What's wrong?" She asked. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Wrong?" Ricky asked, "nothing, completely nothing." He smirked, wrapping his arms around Chloe's waist, "I just wanted to see my girlfriend," he whispered, kissing her on the lips, "without bodyguard big brother around" He murmured kissing her again. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Chloe smiled through their kiss and pulled him off of him a little bit, "so you thought- let's grab her and pull her into the closet like one another creep?" Chloe giggled. "That's exactly what I thought" Ricky smirked. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Making out with some hot guy in the janitor closet is obviously one of the things on my bucket list" Chloe smiled, wrapping her arms around his neck as he pushed her against the wall gently, "I'm happy to help you cross that thing off then," Ricky said. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"Your brother would kill me if he knew about us," he said, "but it's worth the risk.". Chloe smiled and bit her lip, "you're the cutest, honestly" Chloe said. "I love you, Chloe Lukasiak," Ricky whispered, "and I promise that it will work out soon," he said, ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"I'll keep fighting for you. No matter what." ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
