Chapter 7 - Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste

Chapter 7

It felt like an eternity. Just being in this position and  staring into his alluring eyes. His gaze flickered down to  my lips, his own parting slightly.

I puffed out some air. “I think I’m able to stand now  Blake.” I joked and forcefully let out a laugh. It comes  out strained and awkward.

His blue eyes widen slightly, as if just realizing he was  still holding me. Within a second I was standing on the  ground, brushing my palms over my skirt awkwardly.

I looked at Blake catching him already staring at me. He  reaches over and twirls some curly strands of my hair,  tugging it playfully. “I love your hair.” He compliments. I  had left it down and slightly curled it. He smirks when his  eyes drop down to stare at my leggings.

“You look sexy.” His tone had taken on a husky one, one  that has my heart pounding in my chest, it’s rhythm  uncontrollable. His eyes travel back up my body slowly,  the intensity leaving a tingling sensation in my lower  regions.

His blue eyes glaze over as they fall into my own.  “Though I would’ve preferred if you didn’t wear the  leggings.” He grunt biting his lower lip.

My breathing accelerated, coming in short puffs. I should  be used to Blake’s constant playful flirting but I wasn’t.I

I nodded and reach for the handle but a hand on my  thigh stops me. I stilled, the contact of his palm leaves a  tingling feeling where it rest. “Stay.”

Stacy’s eyes blared with fury when her eyes zoned in on  Blake’s hand on my thigh. He notices her line of vision  but doesn’t retract his hand. He looks at her and nods to  the back. “Stacy go sit in the back.”

I squirmed when her heated eyes fall back to me. I  suddenly had the urge to just call it quits and go back  home. “I’m sitting in front Blake.” She hisses. “Get out

Ashley.” She snaps. My hand reach back over to the  handle but a firm squeeze from Blake has me drawing  back.

“Stop acting like a spoilt brat Stacy, just get in the back.”  Blake groaned.

Her eyes narrow. “I’m acting like a spoilt brat?” She  asked in disbelief. After a few minutes of them glaring at  each other she finally sighs in defeat. “Fine.” She spits  then walks to the back and enters, banging the door  shut.

What’s wrong with Blake? The question floats through my  mind as I turn to face him. He only smiles, not revealing  exactly what’s on his mind. Was Blake always this hard to  read?

He retracts his hand away from my thigh. I hated to  admit it but even with these layers of clothes I had on, I  suddenly felt cold.
