My Crush's Bestfriend

》Chapter Twelve《

A/N I'm backkkk!!!! My exams are over! (Since the 7th actually) I'm sorry it took me so long I had writer's block :/ Thank you for being so patient with me. I decided to change the plot so I've been going through the story and planning exactly where it's going to go from here which is also the cause of my writer's block. If there are any plot holes please point them out thank you.

Three things real quick:

1) Made some new covers thought I'd let you guys choose.

2) I entered MCB in the wattys2018 so it would mean a lot if you guys could vote comment and share!

3) Make sure to check out my new poetry book 'Faded'

What's coming
(Fragile is a collaborated book)

Anywayssssss after the lonnggggggg wait, here's chapter 12 ! Enjoy! ~Celine

He guided me towards the bed and sat beside me. We sat in silence as I waited for him to talk, but he didn't. His eyes were distant almost like he was having an internal debate with himself.

After a couple of minutes, my eyelids became heavy and before I could even process what was happening I was pulled into a deep slumber. I felt my head drop onto Alex's shoulder as sleep takes over my tired body.
(A/N Hehe sorry guyssss I made changes as I mentioned so it's too soon for this so yeaaa)

~~~

I woke up to the smell of pancakes. Is there anything better to wake up to? Well I mean except for Alex.

I followed the sweet scent to the kitchen to find a shirtless Alex flipping pancakes.

He did not seem to notice my presence as I stood in the doorway admiring his muscular back trying not to drool from the sight.

Or so I thought.

"If you're done drooling over me, I made you a plate on the counter." He teased as my face heated up in embarrassment.

"I- I wasn't drooling" I muttered as I not so subtly wiped my mouth before walking over to the table.

I immediately began shoveling the delicious pancake into my mouth, not caring that I looked like a caveman.

Alex chuckled at my lack of mannerism. I sent him a glare which effectively shut him up but I saw the slight smirk on his lips as he began eating.

"So did you sleep well?" I asked in an attempt to make conversation.

No response.

I sighed as I continued eating.

"These pancakes are really good" I tried again.

I expected him to be annoyed and ignore me but to my surprise he replied.

"Thanks I guess. So about last night, I-" he was cut off by the ringing of the doorbell.

He sighed, muttering a 'one minute' before leaving to answer the door.

I heard distant voices conversing in the other room before Alex walked back into the kitchen an evident scowl on his face.

I was about to question his sudden mood change when Jordan walked into the kitchen behind him.

"Hey baby." He smiled at me as he sat on the stool next to mine.

"Hey what are you doing here?" I questioned confused by his sudden appearance.

I had a lot of questions for him about where he disappeared to last night but decided to wait until we were alone to ask.

"Yea Jordan. Why are you here?" Alex repeated, annoyance clear in his voice.

"Aren't you happy to see me?" Jordan asked me, ignoring Alex completely.

"Of course I am!" I answered, afraid that I might have unintentionally hurt his feelings.

He smiled at me in return and I notice Alex's jaw clench.

"Jordan I think you should go home. Your parents are probably worried about you disappearing all night don't you think?" Alex asked, tilting his head to the side.

I was about to question what he meant by Jordan not being home since last night when Jordan interpreted, "Yea you're right. Let us go Lex, I'll give you a ride."

"She can't. We have to work on our project." Alex responded.

I sent a questioning glance to Alex. I don't remember us discussing that.

Jordan looked from me to Alex before huffing in annoyance. He muttered an 'I'll call you later' before leaving.

My head was spinning from all that just happened in less than five minutes. I was extremely confused.

"What was that all about?" I asked Alex.

"Nothing." He responded coldly before walking out of the kitchen.

Another mood swing. Nice.
