Christmas Eve, 2007, and I was picking up my friend Ashlyn from her place on the way to a Christmas Eve party at my best friend Tim's house. We'd been part of the same group of friends for years, but in the last few months, we'd been flirting a lot.

Finn slid in, shaking rainwater from his dark hair like a wet dog. "Thought you’d be gone b...

Chapters 1 -3 of Best of Friends 1 - Settling In “All Jack said was I look pretty. It was just a little comment, Noah.” Rachel inspected herself in her oversized vanity as she spoke, adjusting her black pushup with delicate fingers. “Jack creeps me out,” Noah said as he scrolled through the endless reels on his phone. He sprawled across Rachel’s bed, feeling the warmth from the sun streaming through the bay windows. “I th...

For this next part, I wasn't present for much of what happened, so I’ll let Cheryl tell it: Having sex with Clarissa awoke something new in me. I’d accepted that I was into girls on my vacation with Amanda, but Clarissa helped me be at peace with it. I woke up the next morning in her arms, and everything we’d done the night before came back to me. Not just the pleasure, but the comfort, the reassurance, and the trust. I w...

“So I love her, and I don’t know what to do about it.” My eyes blurred as I sat frozen, watching the woman I’d loved for six years tell me she had fallen in love with someone else. “Okay, sure,” I whispered. That was all I could manage. She tilted her head. “Is there anything else you want to say?” I took a shaky breath and ended the conversation with, “Look, I can’t force you to love me back. I’d rather you be with someo...

I remember every detail of that night, the way our laughter faded into something heavier, the heat of Liam’s body beneath mine as we tumbled on the couch. Play fighting had always been our thing, but this time, the line between fun and something more blurred. I pinned him, straddling his hips, both of us breathless and flushed. He tried to break free, but I held him firm, my thighs locked around his waist. His wrists were...
