Chris Sturniolo Imagines

play the game or the game plays you

you caught feelings for chris, but he didn't feel the same way

status: you and chris are/were friends with benefits (no sex though)

-

you're a senior in high school and your best friends happened to be a pair of triplets. they treat you like you're their sister, well at least matt and nick do. you and chris have a different bond, a more friendly bond. mainly everything couples do except sex. chris showed his flirtatious actions to you in the middle of junior year; around the same time you guys became friends.

now it's going to the end of your guys' senior year, and the triplets still don't know, because it's just like an exclusive fling. recently, chris has been different, and your feelings for him developed into real ones. you think he's on the same track, so you think you should tell him.

-

it was the end of the school day and you were walking to your car. about to open the car door, you felt two hands placed on the side of your waist. it made you jump and turn around to see chris.

"jesus chris you scared me!" you said, hitting his chest.

he didn't even budge. he was just there laughing at your reaction.

"nick and matt are going to go shopping, so i told them i would ride home with you," he said, slowly wrapping his arms at the bottom of your waist.

"that should be fine. i was just going to get food then go home," you said putting your arms around his neck.

"let's go now. i don't even know if they left the parking lot yet," he stated, taking his arms off you and taking arms hands off him.

he walked around to the passenger seat and you go in your car as well. you started it and drove out of the parking lot.

-

you drove you and chris to mcdonald's to get a light meal. chris was nice enough to pay for you guys at the drive thru. you got your card out about to hand it to the worker then he places his hand on your thigh catching you off-guard while he reaches over to the worker and gives him his card. the worker took his card and swiped it then gave it back.

"you didn't have to do that," you said looking at him. his hand was still on your thigh.

"oh but i did," he smirked, getting nose-to-nose with you. his lips lightly rubbed against your's, signaling for a peck, but before you went in, he pulled away; teasing you.

you rolled your eyes and the worker opened the window and gave you the bag of food, "here you guys go."

"thank you. have a good day!" you said.

"you too."

-

you were driving home but then realized chris hasn't even been home yet.

"do you want me to drop you off?" you asked.

"it's good, we can go back to your place if you want," he said, snacking on his fries.

-

you parked in the driveway and you and chris walked inside. your parents were still at work so it was just you two.

"house to ourselves?" chris teased.

you looked back at him with a smirk, "i guess so."

he threw your's and his trash away and both of you guys went to your room.

you think this is the best time to tell him how you feel. you're pretty sure he feels the same way.

chris flopped on your bed like superman and you just crawled into the empty side of the bed. he scoots over to you and cuddles up against you.

"what you trynna do?" chris smirked, putting his face near your neck planting a few kisses on it.

you smiled at his pleasure, running your fingers through his hair.

"i actually wanted to talk to you about something," you stated.

chris pulled back from your neck and looked at you, "what's up?"

you were nervous to tell him, but you continued; just to get it out and out of the way.

"recently i have been getting these feelings about you. and i know we're already more than friends, the way we mess around when other's aren't there, but i would like to be more than that," you explained. "there's been some things you've did that seems to be you feel the same way. it makes me feel special and loved, but you didn't confess anything so i wanted to be the first one to say it. chris i think i'm starting to like you."

when all of that came out, chris just forze. he couldn't believe the words that just came out of your mouth.

"wow, y/n," he started. "you thought that i liked you?"

now you froze. like yes you did think he liked you? what the hell is he saying.

"with what you've been doing these past couple weeks i though-" he cut you off.

"sorry, let me stop you right there," he put his index finger over your lips. "i just wanted someone to mess around with, and you were an easy target. when matt and nick got close with you i saw how you were. not only you're hot, but you're also so oblivious."

you looked at him with betrayal. and he just looked at you with an evil smirk.

"that's all i was to you? someone you can mess around with? i was a game?"

"well y/n if you put it that way, then yeah. yeah you were a game," he responded, with no sympathy.

tears started to form and roll down your face.

"i thought we had something," your voice cracked.

"oh no don't cry," chris said, wiping your tear. "we did have something. but that something wasn't something you wanted."

sadness and betrayal were the only emotions you felt right now. you can't believe your "friend" lead you on like this.

"i want you to get out and go home." you muttered.

"what was that?" chris asked, looking down at you.

"i said i want you to get out and go home!" you yelled.

"how will i get home?" chris asked.

"ask your fucking brother. right now, get out of my face. i never want to see you ever again after graduation," you stated.

"well, it was nice knowing you. some advice y/n, play the game or the game plays you."

just like that, he left.
