Saving The World While Falling For Your Bestfriend Is Hard

Chaper 21

“Don’t worry I promise to give you your first ring” I said completely serious

　

She turned the radio on and we both began to sing obnoxiously loud. Slowly she began to turn back into her carefree funny self. I guess she didn’t need the dick after all. My phone vibrated twice quickly letting me know that someone had text me.

“Answer that for me” I said tossing my phone to Lala

“Shan says help me” she read aloud from the lock screen

“What” I asked confused by the message.

“Im assuming he‘s coming over here to us ” she said pointing to Alex’s car slowing in front of us

I pulled over to the side of the road and Shan and Whitney exited the car. Shan stomped over to the car while whitney up and flew away. Lala slowly began to unbuckle her seatbelt.

“Where you going?” I asked

“Well Alex shouldn’t ride by herself ” she said

“Yeah ok” I said sadly

“I‘ll be back” she said blowing me a kiss

I caught the kiss and placed it on my lips. She laughed then jogged over to the other car. Moments later Shan entered the car in a huff.

“Drive” he said clearly irritated.

“Want to talk about it” I asked feeling slightly guilty that I hadn’t asked him to join us sooner.

“Man the cliff notes version is that Whitney is mad for no reason” he said being honest

“She has a reason” I said trying to see her point of view.

“Not you too” he said putting his head in his hands

“You disrespected her when you flirted with Eva in front of her.” I told him

“I can do that were not together”

“But you’ve made it obvious that you want to be”

“Of course I do” he said with no hesitation

“Then in her mind your already hers” I told him quoting words my mom had told me

“How”

“Because girls are complicated and that’s how they think” I told him

“How would you know?” He said clearly not believing me

“Ive had this argument with my mom and Lala 50 million times” I told him sighing remembering the first time I had had this argument.

“Can you talk to her for me?” He asked sounding hopeful

“Why would I do that?” I said thinking of all the possible ways it could go wrong.

“Because I cant deal with her being mad” he said

“Better find a way to deal” I said

That’s when Shan pulled out the big guns. He managed to make me feel guilty and sorry for him at the same time.

“If it were you and Lala I would definitely do it” he said knowing I would cave in.

“Fine but if I fix this then you had better not look at another female including your mother.” I said serious

“Deal” he agreed quickly.

“When she comes back I will fix it”

“Do it now” he said impatiently

“Shes not exactly within hearing distance” I said reminding him that she flew off

“Cant fly straight in a downpour” she said hoping I would catch on which I did.

“So you want me to risk her life and exposure for your personal gain”

“Yes” he said unashamed.

He must have been seriously desperate.

“Ok” I said and speed dialed Lala.

“Hello” she said after the third ring

“I need a favor” I said into the phone quickly

“You already know my terms” she said not missing a beat

“But its not for me” I said trying to get out of it

“But your asking for them therefore you know my terms” she said smugly

“Fine” I said lowly

“Excuse me” she said even though I knew damn well she heard me.

“I said ok” I told her louder this time.

“Whats the terms” Shan said speaking up for the first time

“Im glad you asked. Well basically Ryan will be my all purpose slave for a week” she said then snickered evilly.

“Like a sex slave” Shan asked trying to clarify

“I wish” I mumbled.

“Then what kind of slave?”

“Basically I do her nails, go shopping with her, and even gossip about boys with her” I said feeling slightly less manly thinking about it

“So basically you’re her gay bestfriend” he said shrugging

“I feel more like her bitch” I told him honestly

“Damn thank you so much for this favor” he said seeing what I was going through for him.

“I think I just made a deal with the devil” I mumbled

“A sexy devil” Shan said from the passenger seat.

I quickly reached across and slapped him in the head giving him a warning look. He quickly threw his hands up in surrender.

“Whats the favor” Lala asked getting us back on track

“Make it rain” I said

“Ryan we are not in a strip club” she told me but I heard the smile in her voice.

This is why she was my best friend. She had a sense of humor
