My Best Friend Stole My Royal Boyfriend

Chapter 13

I can‘t help but watch Adam walk away. Today he is

dressed in blue jeans and a white t–shirt. He doesn‘t even try

to look good but still does. He‘s the type of man that could

wear anything and still look irresistible. I notice that Lizzie is

nowhere around, and I wonder if he waited for her to leave

to speak to me. He didn‘t try to come to me while she was

sitting next to him and running her fingers through his hair,

so he might have waited for her to leave first. I shake my

head; I had to stop doing this to myself. I needed to stop

thinking about the two of them.

“What the hell happened between the two of you

yesterday?” Bryan demands. Obviously, he heard every

single thing that Adam just said to me.

Of course, I‘m not about to tell him everything that I did

last night. But I‘m not doing it because I‘m scared of his

reaction; I‘m not going to answer him because it‘s none of

his business.

“Shouldn‘t you be next to Aria?” I ask him. “She‘s

looking around for you right now,” I tell him.

She had just entered the cafeteria and was indeed

looking around for him. What would she think if she saw him

standing right next to me?

He follows my gaze and mumbles something under his

breath before he makes his way towards her.

care what he thinks?”

I shake my head, “I want nothing to do with him. I have

no idea why he‘s still trying to be relevant in my life.”

He indeed was an ass. Shouldn‘t he be concerned about

why his current girlfriend is over there in the corner having a

heated argument with Adam‘s brother, her ex–boyfriend? He

was still looking my way even though she was doing that

right in front of his eyes. I wish he used to pay me this much

attention when we were together. But no, he chose to ‘care‘

about me after publicly humiliating me and dumping me in

the worst way possible. Now he expects me to forget

everything and be what, friends with him? Ha. He had

another thing coming.

Aria wasn‘t any different either; she also chose to act as

she cared about our friendship only after betraying my trust.

Both of their actions are ridiculous; they‘ve been

cheating behind everyone‘s back, and now that they are out

in the open, they choose to be hung up on the people they

mistreated. At this point, I think both of them are just

looking for more attention.

“I can‘t believe that you‘ve been invited to one of

Adam‘s movie nights. He rarely ever invites anyone, only the

people closest to him. Why do you think he did that? Do you

think he wants more from you? I mean, you did kiss his chest

and all...”

“Shhh,” I whisper. We were still in the cafeteria, and

Snnn, whisper, we were stil in the careteria, ang

people here loved to listen in on conversations. I didn‘t want

that story being told all over school.

She puts a finger over her mouth, “I‘m sorry.””

“It‘s okay.” I tell her as I grab the tray from the table.

“I’m not sure if I‘ll be able to go: you probably have already

heard about my parents and how strict they are when it

comes to those things. They aren‘t very fond of Adam and his

family either, just like all of the elders around us. You know

that they have this crazy idea that they would be the doom

of us all. But as we can see, Adam and his family are totally

normal; everyone else is the delusional ones.”

Including me, yesterday I‘ve proven that even I am a bit

crazier than Adam or his family would ever be.

She nods, “I too believe that they take things a bit too

far. If I try to say anything in their favor, my parents look at

me as though I‘m insane. There is no changing our parents

minds about their kind. I blame the prophecies; they should

not even exist. I haven‘t seen a single one of those things

come true as yet.”

I push the chair backward and walk over to the bin,

Abigail following me closely behind.

“My parents are the same.”

But something in me wants to meet Adam desperately,

Maybe I want him to think better of me; I didn‘t exactly leave a good impression on him. I can‘t explain it, but I need him

come true as yet.”

I push the chair backward and walk over to the bin,

Abigail following me closely behind.

But something in me wants to meet Adam desperately.

Maybe I want him to think better of me; I didn‘t exactly leave

a good impression on him. I can‘t explain it, but I need him

to see that I was not crazy, at least not totally. I want him to

like me.

I pause and take a moment to think about those

forbidden thoughts. I want Adam to like me? I didn‘t even

realize that my body wanted something like that.

“Ah, are you okay?” Abigail asks me.

It‘s only then that I realize I‘m standing with the tray in

hand right over the bin. I‘ve been like that for more than a This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

minute, just lost in my thoughts. I can‘t imagine how that

must have looked to her.

I quickly dump the leftovers into the bin and force a

smile on my face, “I just have a lot on my mind.”

“I‘m sure it‘s about Adam,” she winks at me. “I think that

you should go tonight. I just don‘t know how you‘re going to

convince your parents.”

I have no idea why Adam invited me to movie night

tonight at his home, but I know I can‘t tell this my parents. I

needed to make up a believable lie that would give me the free pass that I needed
