Cheating with my boyfriend's best friend

Chapter 95

I’m In Love

“Never have I ever been in love.”

As soon as the pink-haired woman spoke, the crowd’s booing drowned her out.

“Leslie, are you just venting now?” Someone sighed.

“I told you, you can’t flirt with Aaron Morris like that. He prefers chicks who play hard to get, unlike you.”

Jack said loudly as he downed a shot of tequila.

“Don’t mind me then.” Leslie leaned forward in her low-cut tank top, catching the eyes of most of the

men in the room.

“You little tease… Why don’t you try winning me over instead?” Jack gazed at her boobs resting on the

table.

“F**k off. I’m more woman than you can handle.” Leslie said, winking at Aaron

“Fine. I admit defeat.” Aaron put down his last finger and rolled his shoulders.

Everyone was shocked.

“What?! Aaron, I said ‘never have I ever been in love.’ Are you saying you have a special someone?”

Leslie’s eyes were wide with wonder.

“Seriously? You?” Jack was so taken aback that he spat his tequila all over the blonde lawyer next to

him. “No way. You’re saying there’s a woman that you can’t win over?”

“I’d like to point out that love and sexual infatuation are two different things.” Seb wiped his face in

disgust. “Leslie was asking if there was a woman you wanted to spend your life

with.”

“I know.” Aaron raised his eyebrows and glanced at me for a brief second, then he finished his wine in

one swig. “And I’d want nothing more than to spend my life with her.”

When our eyes met, my heart fluttered. Was he talking about me? It seemed impossible, but at that

moment, I was almost certain I knew how he felt about me. Where could those feelings have come

from? Did he just love having me in his bed? Most of our time together was spent making love…

If the way to a woman’s heart was through her vagina, could the same be said about a man and his

d**k? Does he want to spend the rest of his life with me just because he likes having sex with me?

I laughed to myself at my naivety.

If it was that easy for a man to fall in love, there would be fewer lonely women in the world. If sex was

the only qualifier, that would be too simple.

Still, my heart pounded despite my reasoning.

Silently, I put one of my fingers down. I was in love with someone. I abandoned my morals and threw

caution to the wind when it came to him. I was a scientist, but for him, I was a musician. Every moment

we spent together rang through. my mind like love songs.

I’d assumed no one would notice since I was off to the side, but Aaron did. His eyes lit up, and I looked

away,

embarrassed. I didn’t expect him to notice…

1 scrambled to grab my glass on the table, which I had barely touched, and took a large gulp. The

c**ktail burned down my throat all the way to my stomach, and its intoxicating aroma still lingered in my

nostrils. I didn’t have to drink much before I began to feel tipsy, but even then, it wasn’t the wine that

made me drunk. It was him.

When I looked up at Aaron again, I noticed that his eyes were shining as if they were full of stars. Then

he gave me a pure, joyful smile, like a child seeing the sea for the first time. I was so enamored by his

beauty that I couldn’t help but giggle.

Then, the music changed from loud rock to a lighter tune:

“Did you ever have someone kiss you in a crowded room

And every single one of your friends was makin’ fun of you…

But 15 seconds later, they were clappin’ too?”* (song from Taylor Swift’s new Album)

I felt compelled to pull Aaron in for a kiss right then and there, as the song suggested. In front of

everyone. In front of my ‘fiancee’. In front of the world.

I didn’t care about their reactions or what they’d think of me. In the end, they’d cheer and celebrate my

love for him, just like the song said…

But in the next second, my dream was shattered.
