Hey guys it's me again.
I would first off like to thank you guys for over two millions reads, that's crazy.
Anyways, I have been noticing your comments about this story, good and bad, so I thought I'd take some of them into consideration.
I personally have a strong dislike for this book but I don't want to depart from it.
I have tried editing it, but I could barely get through two chapters without cringing lol.
This update is for all of you who favored the concept of Amelia ending up with a girl.
I chose Stella since I feel like they have a better connection than Amelia and Emma.
I will most likely not make this chapter into a real story since I don't have a plan for their relationship or the development of it.
So without a further ado.
I hope you guys love this AU chapter.
'I Accidentally Fell In Love With My Best Friend'.
P.s. this story takes place during their senior year.
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Amelia's POV
Today is a special day.
It's the twins birthday!
Easton and Stella are officially turning eighteen today.
I think they've been preparing for this day since middle school.
Sadly I'm not eighteen yet.
I turn eighteen next month so I'm technically the youngest of the three of us and I don't think they'll ever let me live it down.
"I can't believe you're turning eighteen" I say from Stella's bed
She's currently changing in front of me.
Her and I have gotten pretty comfortable with seeing each other's bodies in the past couple of years.
"Same, I still feel like a kid" she says as she quickly pulls on a pair of royal blue lace panties
I laugh lightly as I avert my attention away from her mostly nude body.
Stella has an amazing body.
That's a fact.
But it's extremely distracting since it makes me want to constantly jump her bones.
I feel a blush begin to slowly appear on my face as I start to play with my ripped jeans.
"Stella, you're turning eighteen not eighty" I joke which causes her to laugh
I hear a little shuffling before she huffs out a frustrated breath of air.
"I need your help" she suddenly says
I look up only to see her facing me with a precious pout on her beautiful face.
"With what?" I ask her before I quietly clear my throat
She spins around so that I can see her unclipped corresponding royal blue bra.
Sweet baby Jesus.
"Can you clip my bra for me, I can't reach it" she request
Is she serious?
"I don't know" I reply with an unsure tone
"Please, Amelia" Stella begs which makes me sigh
I'm a complete and utter sucker for her.
She has me wrapped around her finger and she doesn't even know it.
"Fine" I reply quietly as I stand up from my spot on her bed and walk up to her
I begin to nibble on my bottom lip nervously as I move her raven black hair over her shoulder so that I have better access to her bra clasp.
I might be hallucinating but I swear she backs up the slightest bit so that her butt is resting against my private region.
My breath hitches at this acting as my shaky hands make their way up to her bra clasp.
I quickly clasp it on the loosest setting before stepping away from her. As I'm making my way back to her back she quickly stops me.
"Can you make it a little tighter?" She asks nicely
I remain silent as I walk back to my previous position and unclasp her bra only to clasp it back into the middle section.
"Is that okay?" I ask her
"Yes, it's fine" she replies as she walks into her closet making sure to wiggle her hips more than normal
Jesus Christ.
This girl will be the death of me.
There's a knock on the door followed by them trying to open the door but ultimately failing.
Did I mention that Stella always locks her bedroom door whenever her and I are in her room.
I have zero idea why she does it but I choose not to question it.
"Amelia, I need to talk to you" I hear Easton say from behind Stella's door
"I'll be back, Stella" I tell her as I walk over to her door
I unlock the door and quickly slip out of her room before closing the door behind me.
I smile up at Easton as I try to calm my raging hormones from his sister.
"What do you need?" I ask him
He doesn't respond to me as he grabs my wrist and pulls me towards his room. As soon as we're in the privacy of his bedroom her closes the door behind himself.
"I need you to tell me if the present I got her is okay" he says
"Seriously, that's what you brought me in here for?" I say with a laugh which causes him to roll his eyes
"You know what happened last time I got her an awful birthday present" he says to justify his statement which effectively cuts off my laughing
He's not wrong.
That was a traumatizing experience for all of us.
"Show me the present" I demand as I cross my arms
He nods his head before retreating into his closet.
I decide to study his room as I wait for him to show me Stella's birthday present.
Wow, he's changed it again.
The walls are currently bare only sporting a mounted television on the wall across his bed.
His desk is covered in homework papers and textbooks.
His bed is unmade, as always.
"Here it is" he says as he retreats out of his closet holding a giant box in his hands
"What is it?" I ask him since the box doesn't have any labels on it
"You know how she loves red starburst?" He asks me
I nod my head with a raised brow.
What is he getting at?
"This box is filled to the brim with red starbursts" he says
My jaw drops in shock as I stare at him with wide eyes.
"You're kidding" I say
"Nope, wait till she opens this box" her says smugly
I laugh at him as my eyes drift back down to the giant box of starburst.
"Do you know my favorite flavor of starburst?" I ask him
"The pink ones, why?" He asks with a confused facial expression
"You better do the same for my birthday" I tell him warningly
I won't actually do anything to him if he forgets.
I just like to tease him.
"Yes ma'am" he says with a salute
Just as our laughter seizes Stella burst through the door with a bored expression on her face.
Good thing the box doesn't have a label on it or else her surprise would've been ruined.
"Mom wants us downstairs" she says to her brother as she swiftly grabs my hand and intertwines our fingers together
She's been doing this a lot lately.
I don't really have a problem with it since it feels nice.
Whenever I have skin to skin contact with Stella I get these intense tingles throughout my skin along with an insane amount of butterflies in my tummy.
I looked it up online and it said that these things are normal when you have a crush on someone.
She doesn't wait for him to respond as she leads me out of his room and down the stairs towards their kitchen.
"Hey, are you okay?" I ask her as we enter the kitchen where her mom is unboxing the cake
She seems tense.
She wasn't like this when I was helping her earlier.
"I'm fine" she replies curtly as she turns to face me
She's lying.
It's very obvious when she's lying.
"Stella, I know when you're lying" I tell her matter of factly
She smirks as she gently brings her hand up to rest against my cheek.
"I'm okay, just anxious" she replies truthfully
I nod my head at her statement as we hear Easton's elephant feet stomping down the stairs.
"Is the zoo coming to town or is that just Easton?" Ms. Hayes questions as she places the cake on the counter
"Haha very funny" Easton remarks sarcastically as he steps into the kitchen which makes all of us laugh
Everyday is an adventure at the Hayes house.
-
"You didn't!" Stella practically yells as she unboxes Easton's present
She looks like a kid on Christmas.
Or like the kid who saw his mommy kissing Santa Claus.
"Happy birthday, Stella" he says with a bright smile
"I don't think I've ever been this happy to have a brother before" Stella says with a bright smile
Ms. Hayes and I laugh out loud as Easton rolls his eyes at his overdramatic sister.
"Whatever, where's my present?" He questions seriously
"Is my presence not enough?" Stella jokes as he gives her an emotionless facial expression
"Fine, check the backyard" she says with an eye roll
He gives her a look of confusion as he makes his way towards the backyard.
All of us follow after him only to die of laughter when we see his present.
Stella drew penises all over his truck with washable paint.
It is quite the site to see.
"Wha-?" He questions with a confused tone of voice
"I remember you saying you needed to get your truck washed," Stella says as she walks up to her frozen brother and hands him a card
"If you get three punches then they'll give you a free car wash" she says with an innocent smile
"Easton, that's not your real present" I practically force myself to say
"We could've let him believe it for a little longer" Stella says with a shrug
She slowly walks back over to me before grabbing my hand and relaxing.
"Please tell me it's a real present" Easton says with a stressed tone of voice
"See for yourself" I say and hand him a tiny slip of paper. He takes the slip of paper with a confused facial expression.
"What is this?" He questions
"Emma's number" I say with a smirk
Easton has had a crush on Emma Dílance since freshman year.
Since her and I went to the same camp in grade school I decided that I'd fill her in on Easton's feelings for her.
Luckily she feels the same way.
"You're kidding" he says
"Nope, she likes you" I say with a smile
"Yes, best birthday ever" he says as he makes his way towards the stairs
I guess he's going to go call her.
I'm tugged out of my superhero mood by Stella tugging me towards the front door.
She seems almost nervous.
"We'll be back soon, mom" she yells out to Ms. Hayes
She carefully leads me out of her house and towards the the woods.
There is a small set of woods near their house.
Stella and I used to come here all the time when we were younger.
"Stella, why are we here?" I ask her as she stops at our favorite spot
It's the only spot that has this random red flower.
It only grows during the spring and summer.
Sometimes even the fall which makes zero sense to me.
Maybe the flower is bipolar.
She stops and turns around to face me.
When her grey eyes land on my brown ones I can practically see the storm going on inside of them.
"Stella, what is wrong?" I ask her with genuine worry in my tone of voice
She takes a deep breath before opening her opening her mouth to speak.
"I like you, Amelia, I've actually liked you for awhile now," she says with an emotionless laugh
"I wasn't trying to fall for you, but it was so hard not to," she continues with a small smile
"It's okay if you don't like me back, I'll completely understand" she finishes
"Really, that's what had you worried for the past hour?" I question her as I take a step closer to her
She nods her head as a small blush makes it way onto her cheeks.
"You're cute" I say with a smile and place a peck on her cheek
I don't want to pressure her.
"That's not a proper kiss Miss Montgomery" Stella says as she sneakily wraps her arms around my waist
"Really, I think you'll need to refresh my memory" I go along with her role play as I wrap my arms around her neck
"Gladly" she replies as she moves one of her hands up to rest against my cheek
We slowly lean into each other until our lips are pressed against each other.
I feel a jolt of electricity dance up my spine and my arms tighten around her neck.
My lips begin to feel like I poured a pack of pixie dust on them.
Or an activated pack of popping candy.
My whole body feels like I've just had a full twelve hours of sleep.
Over all, I feel amazing.
We pull away from each other with ragged breaths and dazed eyes.
"You're mine" She whispers slightly possessively which makes me smile
"I've always been yours" I say which makes her mirror my smile
I have no doubt that our future will be just as eventful as our past.
And I'm ready for whatever the universe decides to throw at us.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
So yeah.
That's basically the alternative universe version I had in mind.
It's simple but gets the point across.
I don't really have any future ideas of things I want to do to this book lol.
I hope you enjoyed this chapter though.
