I didn’t answer her in that pivotal moment, the flushness that circulated my face making me feel warm and bothered. The way her slender fingers alongside with the fact she leaned in close broke my resolve. I couldn’t deny I wanted her in that instance, my self control crumbling almost completely. The warmness of her breath that bestowed itself on my skin, the aura of her smell awakening every sense. I felt alive in that moment, but the guilt replaced the sentiment of that notion. It didn’t seem there couldn’t be any resolve; a remedy to unleash these new found desires.

I absorbed how her hazel eyes dictated no matter how conceited her statements had been, the truth I found behind them. I didn’t have to determine whether or not it was a lie. It was evident to see, pulchritude exuded her whole demeanour. 

"Bette why are fighting me… Us… It’s inevitable". The softness of her voice made me want to lean in and kiss her, I swallowed hard I knew I couldn’t do that to my best friend. This was only lust right.
"What are you guys doing… Quit making out already and come and join the party". Alice yelled from the doorway.

I adjusted my eyes to my best friend, all the while thinking shit we haven’t even done anything yet and still I’m going straight to hell. 
"Al… We weren’t…". Was all I could muster before I was interrupted with a burst of laughter.

"Bette I know you wasn’t jeez, I was just busting your balls. Gosh you need to lose up or better yet find ya self some pussy". 

I winced feeling uncomfortable with Alice’s last statement it had been a while since any woman had occupied my bed. But that didn’t justify the fact I only wanted her girl in between my sheets. I shook off those thoughts immediately making my escape, leaving Tina and Alice in the bathroom. After the door had closed me behind I felt I could finally breathe. I won’t do this… I can’t; I adamantly scolded myself. But still no matter how hard I tried to mask my feelings they would always seep right back upto the surface.

I made my excuses and left the gang making my way home. The atmosphere had become almost toxic and I knew if I stayed any longer I would come to regret it.
