bestfriends

His tongue slips in and I get caught off guard.

Woah buddy!

I push back slightly and he lets go and looks into my eyes.

"what?" he asks confused. No trace of anger but instead- confusion.

"Sorry." I pant out. "I just. We're friends." I say looking down.

He lets go lightly and looks slightly aggravated. "I don't. I don't fucking want to be friends!" He blurts.

"what?"

"Fuck. Violet." He runs a hand through his hair.

"What?!" I ask confused as to how his mood changed so fast.

"Nothing." He waves off.

"Do you not want to be friends?" Tears threaten to spill.

"Violet. I want- I'm not good with expressing emotions." He holds my cheek with one hand gently.

"Please just say it Grey." Tears threaten to spill.

"I want to be more than friends!" He blurts.

"Ok." I collect myself. "We can be best friends!" I propose.

"I fucking swear Violet." He grumbles. "Yes! Sure! Best-fucking-friends." He replies.

"Ok." I smile up at him. "But- girl and guy best friends don't kiss..." I say shyly.

"then we won't." He grunt. "yet." he mutters.

"Want to see my flower collection?" I ask excitedly.

I show Grey an array of flowers while he just holds me. He said this is what girl and guy best friends do and it's normal, so I went along with it.

He doesn't try anything, he just hold me in his big muscular arms.

"And this one, I found by a lake Grey! There is a water fall I so have to show you! It's really beautiful." I lean back into his chest.

He plays with my hair and I feel so at peace.

"It's peaceful here." I say outloud. Grey makes and noise saying he agrees.

"Why do you curse so much." I turn around to face him."

"I don't know." He shrugs watching my lips.

"Eyes up here- oh." I stop for a moment to think. "What do I call you?" I think out loud.

"daddy."

"Eww! No!" I slap Grey's chest.

I pull out my phone and google synonyms for best friend.

"Calling you best friend is too basic. Ya know." I say nonchalantly.

No reply.

"Bosom buddy? Um- I don't know about that one. chum? That sounds... like the- CHUM BUCKET!" I laughter at an annoyed Grey.

"Have you ever watched spongebob?" I ask.

"no."

"buddy! We are going to have a MARATHON!" I say overly excited.

I grab him by his shirt and bring him really close. "side kick."

"what?" He looks at me as I let him go.

"Sidekick! That's your name." I smile.

"Violet I am not-"

"yes you are." I say sitting in his lap. I add more weight but he doesn't seem fazed in the slightest.

"Did you feel that?" I ask in a teasing voice.

"What?" He asks in a bored voice.

I press harder. He groans this time.

"Gotcha!" I say as I press my boney butt down.

"I felt something."

"Yup that was my boney butt." I smile proudly down at him.

"It wasn't from you." He grins.

I tilt my head in confusion.

What?
