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.

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. Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.

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.
