It All Started With A Ride

Tabitha tilted her head and stared at me, causing everything in my stomach to twist and turn.

"Tabitha Camilla Thompson- why are you staring at me like that?" I asked with a small blush rushing across my cheeks.

"You're so pretty," she said in a whisper.

My heart began to pound, "and you're so drunk" I replied- because there was no way Tabitha would ever say that if she was sober, right?

"Drunks words are sober thoughts" she smirked.

"And drunk Tabitha needs to give me her keys so I can take her home with me".

"Aw" she smirked, "you wanna take me home with you?"

"Only because you don't want to go home".

"Maxine Parker likes having me around".

"Sure I do" I replied sarcastically- and I wasn't lying. I did like having her around, but I didn't want to admit that- because well-

I didn't exactly know what would come next.

"See" she tilted her head, "you love me".

What happens when the girl your best friend hates offers you a ride? Even worse, what happens when you fall in love?
