Okay, this is my first oneshot,... it was slightly based on a dream tbh.. but i really enjoyed it so i had to write it as a oneshot. I hope you enjoy it :) xx
I looked over at my friend Yasmin, who was sitting there popping her eyes out at me. Uggh that girl! Yasmin is my best friend, she has long Taylor Swift style light brown curly hair, almond shaped brown eyes and very light brown skin. She was stunning, being 5ft 7 with a slender frame she was definitely the girl that could have every guy in the school if she wanted; However she didn’t want, she had her guy and his name was Zack.
Yasmin was grinning at me from across the room, she was cuddled up on the reclining armchair with Zack, he had his arm wrapped around her waist and rested his head against hers. They were so cute together!
On the 3 seat sofa, was Rian, Jack, me and Alex. Jack was pestering Rian by trying to snuggle under his arm, but if you have seen Rian’s arm you will know that thing isn’t going to move unless it wants to, no matter how much push and shove at it. Rian lightly slapped the side of Jack’s head and kept leaning away from him and towards the wall. Alex had the other end seat and I was sharing his recliner as the middle didn’t have one.
Me and Yasmin sat together in English, and we were in a few lessons together such as math, chemistry and P.E. English was the one lesson we had with none of the guys in so we often spent more time having a girl talk then we did concentrating on the sanity of Hamlet or whatever. Im surprised we even passed the class let alone get grade B’s! It was during one of these girl talks that Yasmin had managed to find out one of my secrets, I, Taylor Mason was crushing on one of our best friends. Alexander William Gaskarth to be exact.
The same Alex that currently had his arm swung around my shoulders as we all watched some film together. Pulling out my phone I hid it under the blanket that me and Jack were sharing and texted her telling her to watch the film instead of freaking me out. I turned to stare at her as she pulled out her phone and grinned as she read the message, she tapped her chin in ‘I know everything’ kinda way and snuggled closer to Zack and started watching the film.
My cheeks were feeling more than a little too warm, and I could hear my heart in my head, god I really need to stop feeling like this, I told myself. I know it’s not right to crush on your friend, and believe me; I tried to stop feeling this. Take the first time I saw him on stage, I was just thinking Holy Shit he looks good, but I told myself that it was fine to say that a friend looks nice/handsome, it’s the truth and you have to tell the truth right? It doesn’t have to mean anything,right? But then it happened again. And again. And again. Then, just like right now I always felt too hot when he was around me, when he slung his arm around me, instead of cuddling into it like I normally did, I would just freeze from the shock and the tingly sensations going through my shoulders and down my back.
I stood up, grabbing some of the plates off the coffee table infront of me and walked into the kitchen. Gripping onto the side of the table I took a few deep breaths in and out to calm myself down. Stop being stupid Taylor! It’s Alex, he is one of your best friends and you have been friends for 5 years, don’t mess it up by being stupid. After years of friendships is it even fair to question whether we could ever be anything more? The answer is no; He doesn’t feel the same way, he never will so just breathe and go back in there, pretend like everything is okay.
I piled the dishes in the sink and began putting the clean dishes in the cupboards. Sounds strange, but cleaning is one thing I always do when im in need of a distraction, it requires focus. You have to think about the task and physically do something so it keeps my body and mind focused. On something other than running my hands through Alex’s light brown hair, brushing it out his face to see his gorgeous eyes staring back at m-TAYLOR! Stop it right now!
