My best friend

Chapter 30

"What?" I ask astonishingly. I get nervous, what can he possibly ask me?

"Do you want to be my girlfriend?" he smiles.

I look at him but don't give him an answer. "Lisa?" he asks again.

I walk out of the shower, back to my bed. There are so many emotions going through my body right now. He wants to be with me! But, what if it gets uncomfortable when we break up?

"Lisa?!" he says again and follows me to the room. "What's wrong?"

I shake my head and take a seat on the edge of the bed. I'm sure, I'm ready for a relationship, especially with him. My best friend.

"Hey" he says and caresses my upper arm.

"Why didn't you ask this sooner? Of course!" I smile and jump right on top of him.

"Of course I want to be your girlfriend!" I say again and give him a kiss. I place my hand on his heart and it is beating way too fast.

"You scared me" he says quietly, and looks down at the ground.

"I'm sorry" I say and run my fingers through his wet hair. "We are going out" I say and run to my suitcase.

"So, this dress or the other?" I say, and hold two dresses, a red and white one.

He shakes his head and heads to my direction. "You look good in everything" he kisses my crown.

I smile at him and lay the white one back in my suitcase. "This one it is" I say playfully, keep the red one in my hand and walk to the bathroom.

I look at myself in the mirror. I can't understand this, Shawn and I are in a relationship. My best friend. I see a sparkle in my eyes, I've never felt so good. He makes me feel things I've never felt before, and I only realize that now. I put on the red dress and it fits me perfectly. It's a tight cocktail dress, with a V-neck. I wouldn't normally wear something like that, but something inside me has the urge to get dressed better now.

I sigh deep and grab my makeup bag, apply my makeup and curl my hair. I smooth over my dress one more time, before I walk back to the bedroom where Shawn is waiting for me. His back is turned on me because he's looking at the view from our hotel room. I decide to put on my white heels first. Then I walk back to Shawn and clear my throat.

He turns around and his mouth falls open. "Holy fuck" he says quietly, and I see lust arise in his eyes.

I giggle and he walks towards me. He places his right hand on my left upper arm and caresses it. "You look beautiful" he whispers, and leans in to give me a kiss on my cheek.

I'm used to him saying things like that to me, but now that we're together, it feels different. Much different than before. Shawn himself has a red t-shirt on with light blue skinny jeans and white Nike shoes. Above his shirt he wears a light denim jacket, he looks amazing.

I look at him and wrap my arms around his waist. I place my head on his chest and he puts his arms around my waist again. I listen attentively to his heartbeat, it makes me feel calm.

"We really have to go, otherwise I'll do things with you and we'll be even later" he whispers and smirks.

I look at him and start blushing. "You can always do that later" I playfully say and let him go.

I take my purse from the little desk and put some money in it. "Leave your purse at home" he says.

I look at him questioningly. "What? No?"

"You don't need money, I'll pay" he says, and kisses my crown.

I roll my eyes and hold my purse firmly against me. "No. I'm not going to argue with you. I also pay and take my purse with me" and I walk towards the door. "Are you coming?" I ask.
