NovelEnglishChpater 282 This is exactly what I needed. They weren't just my friends they were family, and I was lucky to have them. I wrapped my arms around his neck and placed a soft kiss on his lips.
"I love you".
"I love you too". His arms tightened around my waist as he kissedback.
"Okay, okay, you have company".
A laugh fell from my lips as my arms slipped from around his neck and I turned to face her. "Hi".
"Clet's get a drink". She winked.
That only meant one thing. The drink she was referring to wasn't a soft one. I supposed one wouldn't hurt.
I was surprised to see Lacey. She had distanced herself a little, but it was good to see her. She seemed happy enough, but I wasn't sure if she was putting it on. "It's good to see you Lace". I smiled.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I've been distant and I'm sorry. Jack and I had a fight but we're good now. Please know that I'm here and so is Alanna if you need to talk".
"I'm okay I promise".
Alanna passed us both a glass.
"It's wine I promise. I kept the shots for another night". She grinned as she held her glass up. "To best friends, to finally finishing school and now we graduate".
I rolled my eyes but joined in on her toast. "To never losing contact". I added.
"To always being there for each other". Lacey smiled.
"Cheers bitches".
"So, I hear you walked in on Jack in the shower". Lacey spoke.
A laugh fell from Alanna's lips. "She wouldn't tellif he had a big d**k or not".
"Alanna". I made a face.
Lacey rolled her eyes. "You're disturbed but yes he does". She smirked. "Lucky girl". Alanna winked.
"I thought it was Jake". I took a sip of my wine. "But yeah, I saw everything".
Lacey shrugged. "It happens it's not a big deal. We've all seen a dick before".
"I love it". Alanna laughed. "And Carter-...".
"No". I held my hand up. "Don't even think about it Alanna". I didn't need to have that vision of my cousin in my head.
She grinned. "Got it. Have you heard from Lana?".
I wanted to call her. I wanted to know if she knew Tommy was here. Of course, I wanted to check in with her as well. It had been days and I hadn't received as much as a text. Then again, I hadn't reached out to her either. "I'm going to call her tomorrow".
"Are things still rocky between you?". Lacey asked.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI shrugged. I wasn't as angry with her anymore, but I hadn't yet forgiven her for what she said. Her words still hurt. Best friends fight and have disagreements it happens, but I couldn't just let what she said go. "She's a bitch".
"Alanna". Lacey frowned.
"What?". She shrugged. "She is".
"There's no need for ncalling". I went to fill up my glass.
I had never thought of Lana being jealous ofuntil Alanna said it before. I was nothing to be jealous of. Have you seen my life? A sigh felh from my lips. It's hard staying mad ather with everything she's going through". I placed the wine bottle on the table. "You're going to give her a free pass aren't you". I caught her eye roll and frowned. I wasn't giving her anything. Her mom was sick and the last thing she needed wason her case. "You're too soft". Lacey added.
"Her moms sick". I spoke.
"She wasn't when she said those horrible things about you. I get that you guys have been friends for years e but don't let that cloud your vision. If you do nothing, she'll think it's okay to do it again". Alanna and her words of wisdom. "I didn't say I was going to do nothing but I'm not going to be a bitch about it". That wasn't me. I wasn't a nasty person. Yes, she was horrible tobut what would I gain by doing the sback? "You're too nice". Lacey smiled.
"Maybe". I shrugged. "But I'll deal with it my way". I glanced at Alanna. I loved her like a sister but one of m days her these sister е these days her mouth was going to get her into trouble. She was a straight shooter, says it like it is but it wasn't always helpful. "I'm just looking out for you". She topped up her glass. "You're my sister and I love you".
I smiled. "I love you too".
"Let's go see what the boys are up to". She grinned.
