Falling for my brothers bestfriend •BW

Chapter 5

"Hey" I say as I give ellie a hug
"Tell me what's wrong! Don't try Deny it either"
"Right well you know how I've been feeling strong for Brooklyn the past few months ? Well it's getting worse and I don't know what to do . I thought it was just a stupid little crush, I thought I could just brush it off . I'm trying to switch off but I can't . I know he doesn't feel the same way about me as I do about him and that's the worse part . I can't be close to him because it breaks me even more knowing we can't be more than just friends and I don't know , just hormones , my anxiety, it's all messing me up . I've felt like this for too long towards him, his amazing eyes , perfect smile, his unreal laugh and accent , beautiful hair , him , I'm falling for my brothers bestfriend . But I can't !! I can't do this to myself . He doesn't feel the same way about me and I don't know how long I can cope with it before I totally break down . I've been trying to stay strong for so long.
I let it all out as I begin to cry on my bestfriends shoulder

"Shhhh , listen I understand you , but you need to talk to him " she replies sim pathetically

"I can't tell him el ! I'll loose him for good we will loose our years of friendship over this and I can't do that because then , it will wreck everything we have . This feelings so strong and its messing me up I can't keep doing this to myself , it's been 6 month el , 6 fucking month , I thought it would just get easier as the days pass but I was wrong , I was so wrong"

I begin to sob . She's the only one I have to talk to about this and I'm so greatful for her but I can't keep this to myself for much longer before things just get worse.

"Try stay out of contact with him , at all for a few days , just to get your head straight. Trust me . Then , speak to him after that "

"Avoid him
Don't text, ring or face time him
Don't go to Blair's
Make sure he doesn't go to yours with harv
Sort your head out give yourself time to think and then speak to him face to face .
trust me time heals everything eventually . Things will get better i promise you . And for now you have me and always will ."

" Ilove you ellie , i don't know what I would do without you . Thankyou "

"No bother just please do what I've said . You can speak to me all the time your like my sister ! I know it's gonna be hard but things will work out . Ilove you my bestie " she smiles cheesy which makes me return one .

I go home and Harvey's already there
"I've been out with Ellie " I say grabbing a water from the fridge as I sit down next to him
"I know Blair told me " he looks at me sim pathetically "I know there's something up with you , everyone can tell ,me Blair , the boys , you don't need to tell me . Just remember , even know I do come across as the moody annoying over protective big brother and I know how it could maybe be annoying sometimes but , it's because I love u Mel " he looks at me ruffling my hair up and smiling
"I know , ilove you too harv even know you get on my nerves most the time" I smile cheekily as we have a Quick brother sister moment

I set up my playlist of my favourite Harvey songs on my blue tooth speaker and hop into the boiling hot, relaxing shower .
I might be Harvey's sister , but I acctually do like some of his music and so I do listen to it around the house sometimes . I'm just a proud sister I guess .

"Ameliaaaa!" Harvey shouts through the house
"Whatttt!" I shout back
"Please turn the music off you know I cringe listening to myself blasting though the house "
"Hey don't take it personal , I'm your biggest fan " I shout back laughing at the fist part
"Oh my god " he laughs as he gives up the effort to try get me to stop.
