"I told you to make a move." Frances said while patting Georges' hair as he laid on her lap, crying. It was an ordinary day of school, whenever Angelica showed up more happy than normal and told her friends Alfred asked to be her boyfriend. Everybody was shocked at the news but she was so happy and they already sort of warmed up to the soccer team captain after the couple months since they met, so they all also were happy for her.

But Georges had to put on his fake smile as he had to feel his heart shatter on the inside.

"You still had a chance with the prom, why did you chicken out?!" Frances asked.

"Really? You're going to give me an "I told you so" speech and not an "It's alright, you'll get over it"?" He said while sitting up with a sniff, making Frances roll her eyes.

"What do you expect me to do? You know I am not good with these things, you should go talk with Mary or-"

Georges snorted, "And get as advice sleep with as many people as possible to get over it? Pass"

"Or Theo?" She concluded, a bit of grudge not going unnoticed in her voice by Georges.

He huffed with a sad smile, wiping away the remaining tears as he shook his head, "I don't think I would be able to talk to her... She could tell Philip and..."

"He would pretty probably tell Ange, I know," Frances said pulling her legs over Georges' bed and cross sitting over them. She sighed looking down at her black nails holding her legs, "Ya know... We were so sure you two would get together someday. You were perfect to each other" He huffed, "Who knew another guy would step in, huh?"

"You did"

"I did?" She cocked an eyebrow at him.

"Yeah, you always told me to say something before it was too late. I guess you jinxed it"

"Oh, so it's my fault now?" She laughed grabbing a pillow beside her and hitting it against his face, finally making the boy laugh.

"If that's the case, I always thought you and Lee would get together," He said with a teasing smile as she stared at him with a stone face. "I mean it! The perfect cliché! Enemies to lovers!"

"Take that back!" She said hitting him again with the pillow but he raised his arms in front of his face as both laughed, even if Frances was still mad at him.

"No! It's the truth! Didn't you throw some facts at my face just now?! I'm just paying back!" They yelled at each other as Frances punched his arm and Georges tried to protect himself as he laughed at how mad she was.

"I'm serious, take that shit back! I can't believe my best friend is saying this! I won't accept it from your mouth, Georges!" She yelled climbing on top of him to trap his body and keep on hitting the pillow at his face, even if he could easily stand up and she would fall to the ground if he wanted to, which wasn't the case, he was just enjoying that moment of joy.

He simply laughed louder and she hit him again, this time, Georges waited for her to drag the pillow down and in the perfect timing, he grabbed it and pulled over his head, away from her with a loud "HA!"

But what he didn't plan, was for her to misbalance once he pulled the pillow up and fall over his chest, their faces mere inches away. They both stared at each other's eyes for less than a second but the tension was already there, Frances gulping and Georges open mouthed as he was about to say something before it happened, suddenly nervous about the position they were in and closed it quickly.

They had already been in positions like this before. Frances would always sit on his lap while they played video game, occasionally jumping with a victory or a sudden scare and hurting his crotch, what would cause Georges to groan in pain as she laughed. Or Georges would lay over her body, his face over her chest, while she carelessly used her phone, or get her in surprise by lifting her shirt just enough to blow against her belly and make her explode in laughter. But this was the first time they both felt that weird tension and felt their entire bodies heating up.

"Ahm..." Frances murmured wide-eyed but never concluded her sentence, nor ever knowing what she was even thinking to say next.

They stood froze and in silence for a second more before Georges closed the gap between them, linking their lips. He was kissing his best friend. And for a mere frame of a second, she kissed back, both with closed eyes, but she shot hers open as she pushed her head back, his eyes opening right after and a deep crimson red taking over his entire face as he widened his eyes.

"Oh my God," He murmured before slapping a hand on his forehead, tightly closing his eyes shut in the deepest embarrassment he ever felt before as she quickly climbed off him, sitting down beside his laid body, staring at a certain point at the messy room with wide eyes. "Oh my God, I'm sorry, Fran- I shouldn't have done that. My bad"

They stood in silence before he felt the bed moving, opening one of his eyes in fear, just to see his friend laying down beside him with an embarrassed smile and he opened both his eyes, looking confusedly at her, "It's alright. Let's just pretend this never happened?"

"Deal!" He shouted and sighed in relief as she laughed aloud, just glad he didn't mess up with his best friend.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm just too hot to resist, baby, I get it" She teases and he shoved her to the side.

"F*ck off" He complained, still red in the face as both laughed.
