My boyfriend's best friend

The ultimatum

"Isn't Lacey's boyfriend outside?" "How do you know my name?" "You do have an instagram dumbshit and that's also where I found out you have a boyfriend maybe next time don't post a picture with the caption"With my boyfriend"so here's the deal"she turned to Shiro and said

"Either you go out with me or I'll show this to Lacey's boyfriend" "Ew hell no I'd rather die and that's more of an ultimatum than a deal" "are you sure about that?I'll give you to the end of work to decide on my "ultimatum"oh and choose wisely"and with that she went back to the tables to take their order with a smile on her face

"What the hell is wrong with y'all we are supposed to be working and now thanks to you Lex is gonna kill my brother why do you even want him why did you kiss him how could you do this to Lex why did you do this to Lex!??!"I looked at her she looked a lot like her brother but instead of green eyes she had blue eyes.I knew that I couldn't keep my feelings hidden anymore so I said it

"Because I'm in love with him" Ava's eyes widened"W-what did you say?"Shiro asked I turned around and said"I love you Shiro"He looked from side to side then pointed to his chest and said"Me?You love me?are you sure?" "Yes yes and yes" he smiled and said"Well in the case I love you too Lacey I've been wanting to say it but I've been to scared and worried that you wouldn't say it back like you did with Lex" "What the hell it's only been like a month and two weeks and y'all already love each other?" "I smiled and said"No I loved him from the start"I saw both Shiro and Ava's eyes widen

"Well y'all are both crazy but just as long as you break up with Lex before it's to late I guess I'm okay with it" She turned around and walked away me and Shiro both looked at each other and smiled he picked me up and said"I love you Lacey Palacios" I love you too Shiro Hoshi"

"Now that we got that out of the way what are you gonna tell Alison?" "You could just break up with him you know" "what no I can't"He put his hands on my shoulder and asked "Why?" "Because I don't want to break his heart"

"You mean the way your broke mine" "I what?" "Lacey you have to choose one of us" "I-I can't" "Why not?" "Because I still really like Lex"I saw his eyes widen"W-what?" "I still really like Lex"he took his hands off my shoulders and said"Well then I think I know what I'm gonna tell Alison" "What are you gonna tell her?" "Nothing just get back to work we have a job to do"

I walked back to the counter"Hey L-Are you okay?"I looked up at Ava and smiled"Yeah I'm fine thanks for asking" "Ok we both know that I know you better than that so tell me" "I-I told Shiro that I still like Lex" "Oh no you are in trouble let's talk about this after work for now the guy at table two told me to tell you to tell pretty boy he wants eggs" Um okay"I walked back to Shiro and said"Hey pretty boy the guy at table two wants eggs" "Did he call me that?"

"Yup now get back to work after all we do have a job to do"and for the rest of the day we worked the car ride home was kind of awkward only Ava and Lex we're talking but me and Shiro we're just trying to not make eye contact but at one point I couldn't stand it so I looked at him and he looked at me

"W-What did you tell her?" "I told her yes because I really didn't have a choice sense someone doesn't want to break up with him" "I told you already and I won't tell you again" "instead of doing all this a certain someone could just break up with him and we would be fine" "I told you no"Shiro slammed on the brakes he closed his eyes and said

"Lex you drive"without asking any questions Lex got out and went to the driver's seat while Shiro sat in the back with his arms and legs crossed I heard him and Ava talking"What was that all about?" "Nothing" "Did Alison ask you out?" "Yes" "And did you say yes?" "Yeah I kinda had to" "Oh" "So are you and him having any problems?"I heard Shiro ask her"Nah it's been pretty good but I can't convince him to break up with her" "Yeah me too" "Who the hell are him and her?"I thought

"If your mad and you know it clap your hands"I heard Lex say we all clapped our hands and laughed after wards"So is anyone gonna say why they're mad?"Lex said though his laughter the whole car got quiet after that"Ok then I guess some things are better kept secret"

we got home and Shiro quickly ran inside I felt my phone vibrate so I took it out and turned it on and saw and text from Shiro"Wait outside" "Why?" "Please just do it" "Ok fine for how long?" "Until I say so" "Yes sir"After about thirty minutes my phone vibrated again"Ok you can come now"I went into the house and opened the door to our room I turned on the lights to see Shiro with a cake in his hands
