Loving My Boyfriend's Best Friend Chapter 36
I got out of the shower after my punishment. He made it clear to me which boundaries i had crossed. My mind is consumed by the incident as i put on some simple dress. I held unto the clothe and stared into the mirror with my eyes shut. What i felt....was beyond explanation. My body arouse to the thought of Harry touching me again but i need to get my self together. Our parents will be here any time soon. I shouldn't be seen as this horny girl who is desperate for sex.
I felt his breathe against my neck. He was kissing me. He's making it worse. How can i control myself if he's just so good at touching me at my sensitive spots.
"Elena you're still naked. Put on some dress before i change my mind." He felt subjected to my body.
"What would you do if i don't?" I tested him playfully.
"Many things. And it wouldn't be funny but our parents will be here soon so save me from this temptation." He eyes didn't leave my body.
"It's not like i was having the intention." I say shyly, putting on my dress quickly.
"Hmm...I see. Then i won't touch you again."
"But i..."
"But you what, El? Since you don't want me to touch you, i think i will have to change my plans after breakfast." He walked ahead of me, heading to the sitting room.
"But Harry, I never said you can't touch me!" It was too late to take back my words seeing that my parents and his were both seated at the dining table.
I lowered my head in embarrassment while Harry smiled all the way.
"I'm so sorry. I didn't know..." I try explaining myself.
"It's alright Elena." Harry's mom cuts in.
"It's understandable. You guys will be couples now."
"Darling, how's the stitch?" My mom asked, giving me a hug.
"It's okay, mom. I'm fine." I assured her.
"Oh please can we eat now. I didn't get the chance to eat some good meal prepared for me at my house just for this occasion." Harry's aunt, Theresa speaks in a rude manner.
"Yes, we will eat." I replied her. Theresa and i have some issues in the past so i get why she doesn't like me till now.
My dad prayed on the meal before we ate.
"Amen." We all say.
"Wait, before we eat, i need to know who cooked this dish. I mean i eat healthy food." Theresa interrupted.
"I made it." Sharon spoke.
"Oh, that's much better. I don't want to eat food made by gossips."
"Tessa, can we just have a peaceful meal." Harry's mom, Magreth interrupts.
"I was just saying." Tessa said in a low key tone.
"Mom, it's alright. I have totally adapted to this behavior she gives. Considering, she isn't married yet. I do understand." Harry smiles towards his aunt.
Tessa glares at Harry but he returned a smirk.
"That's right. You're even getting married before her. I always tell her you know. She will soon have grey hair and that beauty she hold strongly will just fade away." Magreth teases her.
"Can we just eat peacefully? I might not have the appetite if this goes on." Tessa interjected.
"Yes, we shall." Harry says, making all of us laugh.
I went outside to get some air while my parents and Harry's deliberate on when the wedding should be fixed. I noticed Tessa was also out alone. I thought i should keep her company. I just want to settle things with her. I will soon be getting married and i don't want another obstacle in the way of my marriage.
"Hey.." I walk closer to her, trying to get what she was looking at but there was nothing. She was lost in thoughts.
"Theresa." I call.
"I don't like being called that. You know that." She rolled her eyes at me.
"Sorry." I say. It's going to be hard to get into a conversation with her. She hates me so much after what i did.
"Why feel sorry? You did nothing wrong. You called me by my name. It's just that there are some things 'sorry' is meant for not this. We both know don't we?" She smiled weakly, taking a sip from the red wine in her hands.
"Tessa but it wasn't my fault. I didn't know he was there."
"Of course you didn't but you took my diary without my permission. How dare you?!"
"Tessa, it's been seven years!"
"But can never be forgotten!"
Tessa had been in love with only one guy and that day at their house she knew he was going to propose to her. She was so excited about it. I was checking my cell phone in her room when i got hold of her diary. To my surprise, Tessa was in love with another man before him.
"I can't believe this, Tessa you never told me you and Austin were dating." I said excitedly when i came outside. Austin was a top celebrity. I forgot to use past tense and that made everyone confused.
"Gosh, i wish i knew but what about John. Does he..." I took my eyes off the diary and noticed that John was about putting the ring in her finger. I could feel her anger circling round my body. It was like i was going to be thrown in the pit of hell.
"You ruined my life. You ruined my relationship with him because he believed you! I hate you so much, Elena."
"I'm sorry, Tessa. I really am. I wish we could go back to the way things were." I felt so sorry for her. She was broken.
"John left me. It can never be the same." She covered her face, ashamed of her tears.
"Some problems can be fixed you know."
I did what i should have done a long time ago. Tell John the truth and yes, he believed! He did. Luckily, he too was never in a relationship. They both looked like a teenager as they gave seductive glances towards each other. I left them to be together while Sharon and I went to shop for everything necessary for the wedding, including my dress. Oh, I'm so excited.
