My Bestfriend's Brother Shouldn't Know How I Taste

Mira's pov

I am so embarrassed Bailey and Kristina saw the last few texts Ryan sent me. I am not only embarrassed but surprised by his words too.

And somehow...I will admit I felt a bit funny reading those texts. Funny in a good way. Funny in a very unsettling tingly way.

However I could not have the girls notice, so I schooled my features and rolled my eyes. "He's so annoying," I lied and quickly texted him that the tests were not for me but for one of the girls in my class. "Why would he even send this? Gross."

When I looked up from the phone I saw Bailey give me a 'Oh please you liked it' look while Kristina raised one of her brows, lifting a hand to wipe her tears and smiled for the first time we got here.

I cracked a grin myself, happy that I got to make her smile.

However when Ryan texts me back I frowned.

Annoying Ryan: Well then I'm not her baby daddy so she should get him to buy it for her.

I let out a frustrated breath and smacked my thumbs across the screen, irritated with him.

Mira: God Ryan I'm just trying to help her out.

Annoying Ryan: Only you can make me go in that store and get three pregnancy tests Mira. But if I do this I want something in return.

I bit my lip, sweeping a shy nervous glance at the girls to see that they were watching me like a hawk. I cleared my throat.

"He's trying to bargain with me." I admitted, leaning my bum on the table and pretending to be nonchalant even though my heart was pounding furiously in my chest and my hands became clammy. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Ryan. He's the only one who can turn me into this mess.

"Bargain?" Bailey had a small teasing lift of her lips as she stared at me with amusement clear in her eyes.

I nod, dropping my eyes on the phone so I could not look at them and witness their teasing. I hated feeling out of control and Ryan had a good way of making me feel out of control.

I let out a gust of frustration.

Mirabella: What do you want?

I held my breath as I awaited his response, despite trying to play it cool I was aware that the girls knew how nervous I am right now. I pouted. The last thing I want is for them to tease me about Ryan.

As I see the little dots pop that showed he was typing my heart literally stopped working and my throat closed up. Oh my god I am about to die or faint.

My fingers shook, the little hairs behind my neck standing up as I awaited his reply. When I got it, I visibly took in a sharp breath.

Annoying Ryan: You know what I want Mira. A date and of course your taste on my tongue. So what shall it be? Yes or No?

"Oh my God," I whispered aloud. My heart did a flip then another again, this time harder and faster and now it's pounding harshly.

I feel queasy and I pulled in a shaky breath. See what he does to me?

"What is it? What's wrong?" Bailey questioned, her brows drawn into a worried line.

I let out a nervous shy laugh. "Nothing is wrong actually." I swallowed. "Don't worry, he'll buy it."

They were about to ask me further questions but the class started filling up and I took my seat, and then typed out my reply with shaky hands.

Mirabella: Yes.

Annoying Ryan: Good choice. I'll pick you up tonight and Mira....

My heart quickened as I waited for more of what he had to say. I'm a nervous wreck and I hate it but I also love this new feeling he set in me.

Annoying Ryan: the next time I'm buying pregnancy tests will be for you and me got it?

I let out a surprised sound at the back of my throat that was almost like a squeal or screech, I am not sure how to label it.

Earning weird stares from the other students around, I folded my arms on the desk and throw my head in the crook in embarrassment.

Damn you Ryan, you're going to turn me into someone I won't be able to recognize anymore.
