My Brother's Best Friend

Chapter 4

SOPH’S POV

I went to go look for Sky and found her with Cam. I stopped when I heard Cam say “What? Why would I like her? She’s just Soph, my best friend’s little sister.” In my head I already knew that Cam would never like me like I liked him, but the way he said it made me sound like I wasn’t good enough for him to like me. I felt tears welling up in my eyes and I quickly turned around to get away from all the tension I’m feeling in this house. As I was walking out of the house into the backyard I ran into Cam. I quickly put my head down in an attempt to shield my puffy red eyes from the person who caused them. “Where are you going, Princess?” I ignored him and walked around him to get to the backyard. Once I was outside I noticed that nobody was out here and there was a great view of the ocean. I sat down and soon heard distant footsteps approaching me.

CAM’S POV

Why did Soph just ignore me? Did I do something wrong? I walked after her and saw her on the patio sitting in one of the beach chairs. I sat down next to her. She abruptly stood up and I was startled by the sudden movement. I looked up at her and asked “What’s wrong?” She had her walls up, I could tell. Why? She then said “I wanna go back to the house.” She didn’t look at me when she was talking. I got up and stood in front of her and all of a sudden her shoes seemed to become more interesting than me. I asked “What’s up with you, Soph?” she just shook her head and went in search of Sky, probably. I grunted in frustration.

SKY’S POV

Where has Soph been? Me and Cam were talking and he said that he was jealous and I thought that was something that Soph wanted to know I then told him that Brent wasn’t into us girls and after that Cam felt really bad for being a jerk to Soph earlier. He said he was gonna go apologize to her but it’s already been an hour since he said that. I was about to go look for Soph when I turned around and came face to chest with Harry. I looked up and said “Sorry, Smith.” He just stared at me then started to lean in. Before I could process what was happening I felt Harry’s lips on mine. It was a harmless peck on the lips but I felt my whole body tingling from his touch. Was this normal? Was I supposed to feel like this? The kiss had my toes curling and the butterflies to erupt in my stomach. When he pulled away he looked at me with a dreamy gaze and said “I know you may not have felt that, but wow.” He walked away with a sad smile leaving me in a confused daze.
