Chapter 1

Ashton, May 2012

I get out of the shower, and I can hear someone yelling outside. I look out my bedroom window to see Lisa yelling at Donnie. She’s dressed in her cheerleader uniform as I watch her use her hands to talk to him. Lisa is the lead cheerleader and Donnie is the football team's captain.

It’s your typical high school drama, the pretty girl with a jock who drives a nice car. Donnie grew up without a father but somehow got the car from somebody when he got a full ride to North Carolina. It’s a brand new 2012 Chevy Camaro. The color of the car is the color of the college he’s going to, baby blue.

Personally, don’t like Donnie, he’s an arrogant prick who thinks he’s better than everybody else. Now Lisa on the other hand, we’ve been best friends since we were babies. When my parents moved next door, that’s when they meet the Brewers’. Both our mothers were pregnant at the same time. I was born two months before Lisa, so they became really good friends. They would take us to Disney World almost every year for our birthdays.

We would do everything together, like have picnics in the backyard. Or they would take us to Blockbuster and rent VHS tapes and have a movie night.

When I was 7 or 8, my father built me a tree house in the backyard. Lisa and I would playhouse up there. Sometimes we would camp out in it and watch for shooting stars. I made a wish that she would be mine someday.

It wasn’t until I was 13 or 14 that I realized I like girls, especially Lisa. She started growing out and filling everything she wore. But she had other plans with her cheerleading friends and always did sporting events for the school.

On the other hand, I wasn’t built for sports. I loved to build things, like robots. I almost made it to the show robot wars, but I wasn’t old enough at the time of filming.

“Why are you such an asshole Donnie?” I hear out my bedroom window. I stick my finger in the blinds and pull down a little looking in between the slats. It’s Lisa yelling at Donnie again.

“Why are you being such a bitch?” he said back.

“I’m a bitch because you make me be one. You don’t think about anybody else but yourself,” Lisa said throwing her hands around.

“I don’t need this shit from you,” he said getting in his car. “You know what? Forget about going out after graduation. I’m going out with the boys and going to hit the strip club that doesn’t check IDs” he said throwing his car in reverse. I watch as she stands there with her arms crossed. He puts the car in drive and spins his tires making them smoke. Lisa flips him off as he drives away.

“You’re such a child,” she said as she looks up to my window. I pull my finger out fast. A minute later, I hear the doorbell ring. I finish getting dressed and walk down to open the door.

It was Lisa. “Hey, what’s up?” I ask opening the door all the way.

“Did you hear everything?” she asks. I nod my head. “I’m sorry.”

“Don’t be,” I tell her.

“Did I hear someone got a full scholarship to MIT?”

“Who told you? My parents?” She nods.

“When were you going to tell me?” she asks.

“I was going to tell you after graduation. I’m sorry. I wanted it to be a surprise,” I said.

“I think it would be cool to go with you to Boston. I think it would be fun,” she said walking into my house.

“What about Donnie?”

“Fuck him! I’m sick of his macho arrogance, think he’s better bullshit. I’m breaking up with him before graduation anyways when schools over. He thinks I’m coming to North Carolina to be his side piece. I don’t think so,” she said.

Hearing her say she was breaking up with him made me smile. I wanted to pull her in, look in her eyes and tell her that I’ve been in love with her since we were kids. I reach into the refrigerator and pull out two bottles of water. I hand her a bottle.

“Thank you,” she said.

Instead of saying you’re welcome. My brain made my mouth say. “I love you.” My eyes got wide as she stops with the water in her mouth. She swallows as she puts the cap back on. She looks at me.

“Did you say, I love you?”

I froze right there in the kitchen staring at her. I better just tell her the truth, because lying to her, she’ll just see right through me. “I did and I have since eighth grade.”

She puts the water down and cups my face. “Oh my god, I never knew you had those feeling for me, because, I’ve always had them for you. Dating Donnie was a mistake from day one. I was scared to say something.” She pulls my face closer to hers as she kisses me softly on the lips. “I wish you’d said something sooner.” She looks around the house. “Are your parents' home?”

I shake my head. “They went out to do some shopping and won’t be back until later tonight.”

She grabs both my hands and gets closer again. She plants another kiss on my lips. My eyes were open watching her as she kisses me again. She lets go.

“You’re still with Donnie,” I said.

“I don’t care about Donnie. I don’t care anymore that we were king and queen. It wasn’t meant to be like this. I don’t see any future with him. But with you, I can see everything. I can’t believe I’m about to say this. I love you and always have since we were kids,” she said kissing me again. This time I close my eyes and wrap my arms around her waist. “Take me to your room,” she said looking into my eyes.

I take her hand and lead her up the stairs to my room. I close the door as she comes back for another kiss. My hands caress her back as my other hand slides down to her butt. Her breathing starts to get heavy through her nose. She reaches back and unclasps her bra, then takes my hand and places it under her shirt making me touch her breasts.

Now my breathing started to get heavy as I can feel her nipples getting hard in my hand. She pulls my shirt over my head as I pull her top over hers showing me her beautiful breasts. We hug as our skin touches each other. Her breasts are warm, and I can feel her heart beating.

“Make love to me,” she whispers in my ear. She turns around and unzips her skirt and pulls it down, then takes a seat on the edge of the bed. I bend down and pull her panties off while looking up at her. She’s biting her lower lip watching me. I come back up touching the inside of her thighs and working my way to her stomach. Then in between her breasts up to the nape of her neck. She stops breathing as I lightly kiss below the ear, then moves to the other side.

“Where did you learn how to do that?” she said.

“I’ve done some reading,” I said smiling. She pushes me up as she sits up on the bed and grabs my shorts. She pulls them down pulling my underwear at the same time. My dick sprung out almost hitting her in the face. She giggles as she takes hold of it and kisses the head.

She lays back and fingers me to come to her. I watch her wiggle her way to the top of the bed with her legs open. I crawl in between her legs as she licks her fingers and grabs my dick putting me inside of her. She was so wet and warm. I watch her facial expressions change as I go all the way in. I stop as she grabs my face and plants another kiss on my lips. Then I feel her tongue touching my lips. I open my mouth to find her tongue touching mine. We explore each other’s mouths as I begin to move inside of her.

Her breathing was heavy coming out of her nose. She moves her legs up a little to watch me make love to her.

“Faster,” she said.

I pick up my pace as I watch her roll her eyes loving this new feeling.

I knew I was getting close when she looked me in the eyes. “It’s ok. I’m on the pill,” she said.

I didn’t want to stop. She felt so good. I wanted more, I wanted to keep going. I wanted to keep making love to my best friend. I moan trying not to come. Lisa looks at me and squeezes her vagina on my dick. That’s when I lost it and came inside of her.

She kept me close while still inside. She hugged me and kissed my forehead while I regained my strength.

“When I woke up this morning. I didn’t think this would have happened,” I said kissing her breasts.

“I’ve had dreams about this, you and me for a long time, until you said you loved me,” she said still hugging me.

The rest of the day, I was on cloud nine knowing I just made love to my best friend.
