So, I Love My Best Friend

“What are you talking about?” I asked standing up.
“Oh please, don’t pull that. Every time you talk to him or about him your face lights up like a firefly,”
I blushed. “I’ve liked him since forever,”
“Aw,” she said sitting in front of me. “Tell me more,”
“What is there to tell?” I asked sitting down.
“Why haven’t you made your move?” she asked.
“We grow up together. I can’t just tell him. Our friend will be ruined,”
“No it won’t drama queen,”
“Yes it will. He doesn’t like me like that. I’ll always be Clarissa, Chauncey’s best friend,”
“I can help change that. I can make him crazy for you,”
“How?”
“Trust me,” she winked. “I know how guys think. I am bisexual after all,”
“What does being bisexual have to do with knowing how guys think?”
“Nothing. So you trust me?”
“Okay?”
“Alright, let’s get started,”
******
“Clarissa,” Chauncey sang coming up stairs.
Shit, I thought as I put down the blush.
I looked in the mirror.
Tiffany had me in a short black skirt and a dark green tank top.
This was way out of my comfort zone, but I went with it.
“Hey,” I said fixing my hair.
“Ready for…school…” he said once he saw me.
I looked at his reflection in the mirror and tried to hide my smirk.
“What?” I asked.
Chauncey looked shocked and blown away. “You’re wearing that to school?” he asked.
“Yes,” I said walking passed him.
“Are you sure?” he asked.
“Yup,” I said picking up my school bag and swinging it over my shoulder. “Let’s rock and roll,”
“Okay,” Chauncey said placing his hand on my back.
He opened the car door for me and I slid in. He hurried around to the driver’s seat and speed off to school.
“So, who are you looking hot for?” he asked smiling a little.
You. “Um, no one, just thought it would be nice to get some vitamin D before it gets cold,”
“I think it’s for David,”
“In his dreams,”
Chauncey laughed. “So, who is it?”
“No one,” I said as he parked the car.
“Is it for me?” he asked winking.
I smiled and got out of the car.
Chauncey followed behind me and quickly caught up.
We walked into the school everyone seemed to stare at me.
I just kept my head up and continued walking.
I feel braver with Chauncey.
We got to our lockers and opened them.
“Looking good, Clarissa,” a group of seniors said walking pass us.
I smiled at them as they walked by.
“So, you’re doing this for attention,”
“Chauncey, I’m not doing anything for anything,” I said closing me locker.
“Hey baby,” Rose said.
Chauncey smiled and I wanted to puke. I rolled my eyes and spotted Tiffany.
I walked over to her and smiled.
“You look hot!” she said laughing.
“Thanks,”
“Is my evil plan working?”
“You tell me,” I said pointing to Rose and Chauncey lip locking.
“Minor set back,” she shrugged.
“He also thinks I’m doing this to get someone’s attention,”
“Men,” she sighed. “What was his reaction when he saw you?”
“He was shocked,”
“Was he checking you out?”
“I think,”
“You are so….ugh!”
“So what?”
“Pure!”
“I’m not pure! I’m the first person to start the penis game and to tell dick jokes,”
“Damn Clarissa, you’re so bad ass,” Tiffany said tonelessly.
I rolled my eyes. “It’s true,”
“Can you flirt?”
“Um…”
“We’re going to have to work on that,” Tiffany sighed. “We have some work to do with you, babe,”
