《Story of Us》CHAPTER 15

"Sometimes I wonder why Dom doesn't confront you or something. You've been spending a lot of time here with me," I murmured as I sat beside Miguel on the couch. He put down his guitar on the center table.
"It's because he already did," Miguel snorted.
"Oh my god! He did?!"
"Yeah, he talked to me asking if we are dating...just the common questions a big brother would ask," he replied nonchalantly.
"Why didn't you tell me?"
"Why would I?"
"Because I'm involved? Because I deserve to know?" I asked in a high-pitched tone with my arms flailing as I speak. "Hello?!"
"Just kidding," Miguel burst into laughter. "I think he knows we're not dating so he doesn't feel the need to confront me. He doesn't think like Mara. Okay? Why are you so gullible?"
"We were having a serious conversation!" I groaned and slapped him in the arm.
Miguel shushed me and pointed my bedroom's door. I remembered Becca was in there, taking a nap.
"Anyway, do you know that Elisa liked me back in high school? Brian said that maybe I'm unlucky when it comes to relationships because I friend zoned someone back then," Miguel asked, changing the subject.
"Uh, don't tell me you didn't know?"
"I didn't."
"How can you be so naïve?" I asked.
A lot of our classmates knew that Elisa liked Miguel in freshman year. I didn't realize that Miguel had no idea about it and that the boys never told Miguel.
"I don't know. She wasn't the flirty type," Miguel explained, and I nodded. "I think Brian had mentioned it once but I guess I never paid attention."
"Because you like someone else?"
"Uh huh. I think it was the time when I had a huge crush on Khloe."

"I think you've friend zoned other girls too without you knowing," I whispered, and he raised an eyebrow at me.
"Really? Maybe, I should've paid more attention to other girls," he laughed.
"You should've, then maybe you wouldn't have been rejected," I joked.
"I think I'll just focus on my studies first...and music...and basketball," I said, feeling hopeful that it was what's best for me.
"Oh yeah? I think I've heard those lines already," Bianca replied.
"But I'm serious. I don't think I can handle another rejection anytime soon."
"Why are you so pessimistic? The right one will come at the right time. Who knows? The next girl that you would fall in love with might be the one for you."
Love and relationships had been a usual topic between Bianca and me. We had been discussing whether we are ready to enter into a new one or not. Recently we talked about the possibility of us dating each other but our perspective about the matter remained the same. We still couldn't see ourselves dating each other. It was like we love hanging out together but hate the idea of dating each other.
"We don't need to rush. We are young," I muttered.
"I know. Who told us to rush in to relationships?" Bianca asked.
"Who told you to date Stephen?"
"I don't regret that because I learned something from it. But it's not something that I want to experience again."
I smiled at her. I got hurt too but I didn't regret the time and effort I spent on Charlotte. At least I knew to myself that it wasn't my fault why things didn't work out between us.
"Promise me that you'll choose wisely next time."

"Promise me that you'll do the same." Bianca looked challengingly at me. She sat cross-legged and grabbed a throw pillow to place on her lap.
"I promise, and I'll never date a girl who hates my best friend."
"That's kind of hard, don't you think? What if you don't find a girl who will like me? Just find a girl who will love you and accept you for who you are. Oh, and a girl who doesn't want you for the material things you give her."
"I agree with your last statement, but why are you so pessimistic?" I asked, repeating her earlier words. "You told me before that I'll find another Khloe."
"We won't rush," she said, ignoring my questions, and I nodded. "I love you, Migs."
I raised my eyebrows.
She laughed. "That sounded better in my head."
"Love you too, Bianx. You know I'll always be here for you, no matter what."
Loving someone doesn't always mean you have to date them. Sometimes it means having them as a constant person in your life, like a best friend.
I was glad to have her as my best friend. I knew there's someone, aside from Kane and Lily, who loves me and won't hurt me. She would listen to me and I could be completely honest without fearing she would judge me.
I was glad to have Bianca in my life.
"Ugh. Now I can't stand all this cheesiness," she complained and grabbed the pillow on her lap and threw it at me.
I quickly caught it with my left hand and placed it behind me.
"Uh, just to clarify what I've said. I'll be here for you no matter what except for another marathon of 50 First Dates. I can't do that. At least not until after five years."
"What? But you're here to watch it again!" Bianca giggled.
"But I already memorized the opening line and it's not even my favorite film!"
Bianca laughed.
"How about we just eat some spicy noodles?"
She beamed at me. "Sounds good too."
Playlist and and a longer author's note is up next. :)

He was dressed in black jeans and a blood red button shirt. His arms were large and tan, a hand clasped the arm of the sofa and the other awaited the drink on my tray. Stopping before him, I took a deep breath as I picked up his drink. The scent of him was intoxicating. So intoxicating, in fact, that when I got closer to hand him the coffee, my breath caught in my throat.
