"Why the sudden change of heart?" Brian inquired, his attention still focused on the papers before him as he quickly skimmed through them.

I glanced at Sharon, who was glaring at me with obvious annoyance. She had been shooting me those death stares ever since Brian prioritized my unexpected request to speak with him, causing him to cancel his upcoming meeting. It seemed like Sharon took it personally. Did she consider herself Brian's personal babysitter? He was a capable adult who could make his own decisions without someone constantly hovering over him. There was no need for her to make him feel guilty or take it as a personal offense.

Sharon was definitely crossing a line.

But perhaps I was just overthinking things. It wouldn't be the first time.

Ever since Sean told me about the threats he received to break up with me, I had been feeling more than just annoyance.

I let out a sigh, my gaze dropping to the table as I absently brushed my arm. "I should have listened to yo

  • FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND   Exhausting-2

    I wished she were still here. But she wasn't, and it was painful. "And if Val was here, she would tell you to break up with Sean, just like I'm telling you to. You know why?" Brian asked, and I looked at him, uncertain why he believed Val would advocate for the same thing he was pushing for. I shook my head. "Because you were her best friend—the one she cared about the most. She genuinely looked out for you. Remember when your car broke down in the middle of the night and you were terrified?" "I do," I replied, recalling that night vividly. It was the first time I had driven a car that far from home, and I was afraid my dad would never let me drive again. The car was one of his prized possessions, and I hadn't even asked for permission. "She was with you at some event when I called her." "Yeah," Brian agreed. "One of her cousins was getting married. Her mom was pretty mad when she left the ceremony, called a mechanic on the way, picked you up from that terrible place, and stayed

  • FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND   Buried Knife

    [BRIAN] Once again, despite telling myself not to get involved in other people's messes, I found myself right in the middle of one. There was definitely something wrong with me. Why else would I put myself through this? What was I even thinking? But that wasn't even the scariest part. The fact that I didn't regret interfering in Ava's life at all bothered me even more, making me question my sanity. What happened between us a few hours ago was still fresh in my mind. Actually, it was the only thing I could think about. How could I not? I crossed a damn line. It had been a long, long time since I did something so out of character. I was never the impulsive or impatient type. Every decision and action I took was carefully considered and always had a purpose. But this time, I messed up so badly that I had no idea how to fix it. I just didn't want Ava to misunderstand my actions and intentions. Not that I had done anything to clear up any misunderstandings, assuming there were any. So

  • FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND   Buried Knife-2

    Ali wasn't the issue, nor were the teachers at school. Everyone spoke highly of Kian, and his academic performance was still outstanding, with top grades in all his exams. Georgina and Ali sat me down and confronted me about Kian's recent behavior, placing the blame squarely on my shoulders. Even during our marriage, Georgina had a habit of pointing fingers at me for every difficulty she faced in life. I was accused of everything, from getting her pregnant too soon to not doing enough to save our relationship. It didn't matter that we were both equally drunk at that college frat party and she had wanted it just as much as I did. Since I hadn't received any messages from Kian, I decided to call him immediately. He picked up after just two rings. "Are we still on for tonight?" I asked, attempting to sound more energetic than I actually felt. I didn't want him to think that spending time with him was a burden, because it wasn't. But I knew he might have those thoughts, just as I would

  • FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND   Asshole Brother

    [AVA] The news about my brother, Max, came while I was with Sean, going through a list of potential threats that could be trying to tear us apart. The words seemed surreal, jumbling together in my mind, leaving me stunned and breathless. I forgot to blink or even take in a proper breath. Sean swiftly took the phone from my grasp, his voice soothing and calming as he spoke to my frantic mother on the other end. I had no clue how he managed to calm her down, but when he returned after ending the call, he shook my shoulders gently, urging me to gather myself. I grabbed my bag, realizing that I couldn't afford to be overwhelmed at a time like this. I asked Sean if he could drive me to the hospital, my mind racing with thoughts and worries. "Is that even a question, Ava?" Sean replied, already on his feet and holding the café door open as we hurried to his parked car. "But don't worry, your brother will be okay, alright?" I nodded, though my mind was too scattered to fully absorb his

  • FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND   Asshole Brother-2

    "Sean? Aren't you Beau Edwards' son?" Mom's voice broke the silence. Well, double shit. Sean glanced at me and then turned his attention to Mom, a small smile tugging at the corner of his mouth. "Yes, that's right. I'm so sorry about what happened, Mrs. Monroe. What are the doctors saying? Will Max be okay?" His tone had shifted from playful and lighthearted to sincere and concerned. If Mom and Dad were wondering what the hell Sean Edwards was doing with me at such a late hour after work, they didn't say much. But the furrow on Mom's forehead and the looks she gave me before someone rushed out of the operating room definitely screamed "we'll talk about this later." Not that I gave a damn about it right now. Dad quickly approached the man who had emerged from the operating room. "How is my son? How's Max?" he asked, his voice filled with worry. "Is he okay? Please tell me he's okay," Mom sobbed, her emotions running high. I held back, allowing the doctor to address my parents bef

  • FALLING FOR MY DAD'S BEST FRIEND   So Broken, So Beautiful

    [AVA] Lost in my own thoughts, I was caught off guard by a knock on the door. I glanced over, expecting to see the nurse, but it wasn't her. It was Brian. Why was he still here? Startled, I jumped up from the chair and took a step back, feeling an inexplicable surge of energy coursing through me. "Hey!" Why did I have to be so awkward? There was no reason for my heart to feel like it was about to burst just because we were in the same room. Get a grip, Ava. What's wrong with you? Brian winced, brushing off my awkward greeting. Instead, his focus turned to Max. "How is he doing?" It was only then that I noticed the red stains on his shirt. Dad had mentioned that Brian was the one who found Max and brought him to the hospital. Could it be Max's blood on him? "Ava?" "Huh?" I snapped out of my daze, looking up at him before turning to face Max. "He should be awake by tomorrow." Brian nodded silently, lost in thought. "That's good," he finally said, pulling at the collar of his

    I felt a pang of sympathy for him. He had likely been delayed because he had taken Max to the hospital. Damn, this was a difficult situation. "Did you try explaining to him why you couldn't make it?" "I called him multiple times, but he's not answering." I sighed. Yes, this was definitely problematic. "Why don't you go and see him? He won't be able to ignore you in person." "Right now?" he questioned, sounding as if he thought I was being foolish. "It's almost midnight, Ava. He's probably already asleep." "But he read your messages, didn't he?" He abruptly stopped, causing me to continue walking before realizing he wasn't by my side. Curiosity piqued, I turned to see what had happened. His expression twisted into a deep scowl. "How do you know?" I couldn't help but smile. He was so endearing. "Because I've been there. Trust me, I'm well acquainted with the whole 'I'm sorry, I got held up, something important came up at work' scenario. I've seen it all." He resumed walking, b

    [BRIAN] The light in Kian's room is still on, so I'm assuming he's awake, and the fact that I can see the read sign in the voice message that I sent him using this app that he typically uses for texting—the one that he installed on my phone a month ago—means he heard my apology as well. Yet, an ho
