[Agatha POV]
"Agatha!" she calls my name dramatically. She was obviously crying. In this case, I know the reason already because she won't contact me in the dawn if they are okay."Do you need me? Do you want me to go there?" I preceded her."Yes, please!" she whispered.Only one word from her. I acted faster than Flash just to go to her, knowing that it was too dangerous already to travel this late.When I arrived, I instantly went straight to her room. I have a duplicate key, so it is easy for me to get inLexie abruptly hugged me when she saw me. I knew it. They broke up again."I caught him, Agatha. He's kissing another girl." she sobbed."It's better than a man. It's okay for a woman to kiss him, isn't it?" I joked, which gave her a signal to strike me."You still have the appetite to joke around while my heart is aching. It's so painful. I did everything. Is it because he can't get what he wants? Which is my body? Is that all they really want from me?!""You knew already, then why still asking?.""How does it feel to give yourself to a man you're not married?"I suddenly fell silent at her curiosity. Lexie knows I'm a player, having friends with benefits but no strings attached. She has no idea I'm having sex with a girl, not a man.I was an NBSB, meaning I had no boyfriend since birth."Just a piece of advice. Don't do it, Lexie, especially if there is no love. Yes, it might be fun and satisfying in terms of lust and inner desire, but if you are looking for love, do it to the person you really feel love for.I'm different, Lexie.I don't make love.I don't love but fuck hard.""What?!" she asked, confused."I mean, I just want a hard fuck from the guy to please me."As always, she fell asleep on my chest, crying. I slowly removed myself from her. I watched her as she slept soundly. Just one call from her, and I'm coming right away. Even when we were kids, I was always there to defend her from our bullying classmates.I think this is what they call true love—loving even if you get nothing in return. You love her even if she doesn't know. Even if you are not in a relationship, it feels like you are.Am I so stupid?" Agatha!" she growled and even stretched out her hand to look for me. I took off my pants and lay beside her. She settled down on my chest again."Hug!" she demanded, and then I hugged her tightly. We look like we have a relationship, but we are not. This is how we really have been ever since we became best friends.Sometimes, when we are so close, I feel strange in my body. Am I craving with my best friend? What would she think when she found out?Lexie might freak the hell out of her. I can't afford to lose her, so she shouldn't sense my true gender. What matters is that I am with her, and I am free to love her even if she doesn’t reciprocate.As long as She needs me, I will stay. And if the day comes when Lexie is no longer comfortable, I am willing to vanish from her sight. Anything that can make her happy, I'm going to support her. What will be good for her then, be it? I will not be a hindrance.Lexie barely moved in her lying position. Her face lifted and became close to my cheek. My lips were only about an inch away from hers. I swallowed. I'm tempted to taste her pappy lips, but it can't be a reason for me to lose her.She moved again, causing me to feel the touch of her boobs on my chest. We're both not wearing bras, so you really can feel it.I took a deep breath and calmed my aching feelings.Shit! It's hard to hold back, especially when you love the person next to you and who hugs you this much. Sex was the only missing part of it.It's almost morning, but I'm still awake."Best! Are you still up? I love you .. So much. I don't know what I would do without you." she uttered while half asleep.I got up to cook breakfast.[Lexie POV]When I woke up, Agatha was no longer beside me. I felt sad. I raised, stretching my arm.I yawned and then stood up. I went to the bathroom to wash and brush my teeth.I saw my eyes swell from crying last night. Whenever I get hurt because of the wrong man, Agatha is always there to help me out. I don’t know how I would be without her.I walked out of the room, went downstairs, and saw her busy preparing breakfast. The aroma of my favorite corn beef and fried eggs did not escape my senses.[Agatha POV]I glimpse at her on the stairs, just wearing only spaghetti and undies. I turned my gaze away from her before even feeling it uncanny.Imagine how hard it is to control yourself when the woman with you is like this. Even though her long hair is messy, she still looks gorgeous.What’s worse is to see how sexy she is in a simple spaghetti blouse and panty. You're right, and she only wears panties every time she sleeps. I often do, too, but I can't take it anymore lately. I prefer wearing cycling shorts to avoid any allurement hunger.Lexie approached me and then kissed me on the lips. I felt odd because she usually does it only on my cheeks. Perhaps it's just my hallucination.[Lexie POV]I was shocked and unknowingly kissed her on the lips, but she didn't react or anything, so I don't think she noticed."Good morning!" I greeted her, smiling sparingly... acted cool.[Agatha POV] It was noon when I left Lexie. She doesn't have a shoot today, so she wants me to stay, but I pretend to go somewhere with my new month's favorite. Every month I change my date or fuck buddies, mainly because I'm not into a relationship like others typically have. I was driving home when my phone rang. I answered it using my air pad. "Hey! Agatha. Are you free tonight?." a sweet voice from a Chix. I don't know her, but she knows me, so she's probably one of my fuck buddies. "Yeah, I am. What's up? By the way, who is this?" I asked because I never saved a number on my phone. Only my mom, best friend, and bosses from my company were registered. They are not essential if their names don't appear. "You are so mean! Did you forget about me right away? I'm Cloe, the one you meet from the National Library." She reminded me. "Oh yeah! Cloe. I remember now. I'm so sorry I didn't mean to make you feel that way. Hmm, what time do you want me to pick you up?" I offer a ride to
[Lexie POV]What time already, but Agatha still doesn't have a reply. I don't want to call for no reason. She might be astounded, but I'm her best friend who's just worried, so there's no malice.I took another deep breath before pressing her name on my phone."H-hello. Agatha! Hmm, are you still at the party?"Shit! She did not speak and just hung up. Was she angry? Did I disturb her? Is her fuck buddy with her now?I was puzzled, got up from my bed, and walked like a fool. The guy caught in the act didn't know what to do. That's the feeling.It can't be like this! I need to have Kayden's replacement. I go crazy when I'm single. Ahhh!! Its sucks.A few moments later, I heard the main door slam. Suddenly my chest throbbed. Agatha came over! She's here! Yes! I won!"Lexie! What happened?"Agatha asked worriedly. My legs stepped extempore, approaching her. I cuddle, missing her like crazy even though we were together yesterday.Realization suddenly slapped me for acting impulsively. I l
[Lexie POV] I was suddenly excited when something entered my mind. Right! There is a way for me to be with her more. "Hmm. Can you stay home while I'm in the process of moving on?" I gasped as she was busy sipping her pasta. Is she going to disagree? Isn't moving on the process a good reason? When a person's heart hurts like this, isn't it often her close friend who sympathizes? I was nervous when Agatha didn't respond right away, but I was expecting inside. "Are you sure?" was her only retaliation. Do I look unsure of what I'm saying? Why is that her assumption? "Of course, I'm sure. Don't you want to?" I want to evaporate from my seat, realizing I should not dare to invite her to my place to stay. Maybe that's what she's thinking too. It's not possible! "It's fine if you are preoccupied." "No! I'm okay with it. When do you want me to come over?" overjoy flowed as Agatha consented and did not give malice. "Alright!" Unexpectedly I spit out with ecstasy. [Agatha POV] I can
[Narrator]Agatha went out that night not to meet her fuck buddy but to avoid temptation.If she stays at Lexie's house for a long time, she might rape her in no time and lose their friendship, even the girl.[Agatha POV]I inhaled as I gulped my drink. I wonder how I got into this situation? And how can I get away?Isn't she able to move on by herself and still need me by her side ?? Couldn't she reconsider what I might feel? But how? she doesn't know it either.Fuck !!"Bartender! Another one, please!" I groaned after I ran out of the drink.I lit a cigarette and smoked. Dozen of loads release out in my chest with each puff.Many women are fascinated by me, but why am I still obsessed with Lexie? She's straight and fuzzy than the ditch that she'll notice me.I have nothing against her boyfriends.[Lexie POV]I can't count how many rounds I've been in bed. Isn't she planning to go home yet? What time is it!Annoying! It looks like Agatha just brought her belongings, but she has no in
"Someone? But who?" I asked, checking if she was referring to a woman or a man. Perhaps she might remember she's kissing me."It doesn't matter, anyway. Can you come with me?" Now is the canceled shoot of Lexie, so even if I don't want to, I have no choice but to scrap my plans and go with her.After we had breakfast, we headed to the venue. As usual, Lexie's line will be the last one to take, so we have to wait for her turn.I left Lexie in the dressing room while having her make-up when I got bored. A man approached and spoke to me."Are you an artist here too? It seems like I just saw you now."Do I look an artist in his eyes? Is that a compliment?"No, I'm not. I just accompany my best friend. She's the actress." He smiled and then stared at me in a meaningful way. I ignored it and started to disappear, but He managed to grab my hand. "I'm Maison, and you are?" Now I started to perceive what he was up to, and I grinned in annoyance for touching my hand. "I'm not interested!" I s
[LEXIE LEWIS] When I left the room, Agatha was not there. For sure, she's mad at me, but it's annoying to see someone who almost raped you. What's even more painful is that you trust and love him. I sighed and then went to the kitchen. I opened the refrigerator and fetched cold water to drink. I won't bring Agatha on the set again. Maybe she and Maison's paths will cross again. I know that guy. He won't stop until he gets what he wants. I returned to the room to pick up my phone and call Agatha, but I was surprised when a woman answered it. That means she's not with her boyfriend. What time can she come home so I can cook dinner? If she comes home in the morning again, I won't cook anymore. It will only get spoiled and thrown into the trash. Since I could do nothing, I thought of tampering with my best friend's laptop. Our picture immediately popped up in front of me. I smiled there. I also noticed the draft of the novels Agatha writes. She is damn indeed talented. Plus point!
[LEXIE LEWIS] Even though I was hurt because of Agatha's sudden leave, I had to move on with life and do my job. It became my weapon to be effective in my acting skills. I cried as quickly as the director wanted because I thought of Agatha. I still don't know why she left. It is not a big deal to ask to be alone for a while. After the taping, I saw Maison again. My stomach turns every time I see his poker face. Even before he could see me, I immediately walked away, but it was too late. "Oh, look who is here. Where is your best friend? Is that your friend or your girlfriend?" I frowned at what he said. What does he mean? "I doubt you because you're the only woman who refused me. Maybe you want a woman too ..." This is a meaningful statement. What does he know? "Do you know you'll lose your career when they find out you're a lesbian? Tsk, you don't even have a career .." His tongue clicked, creating a sound. "Not all women are crazy about you, Maison. You are not the type of pe
[AGATHA NGUYEN] Because of my fight with Lexie, I couldn't develop an exemplary scenario in the novel I was composing. As I always do, I go to the bar to have some fun. Even though I look like a woman, have long hair, dress sexy, and have make-up, there are still women with a solid gay radar. Later on, I bumped into Freya. She offered me a drink, and I just let her until we came out of the bar to talk better. As time went on, I enjoyed chitchatting with her. Freya was different from the women I had met. She has a sense of humor, not just pure sexual admiration. I liked her, so I initiated the move this time. She has been in the top ten on my friends with benefits list. My lips landed on her, and at first, she refused. She said she doesn't give her sweet kiss to someone who isn't in a relationship. "I like you, Agatha, but we are different." A grinned flash on my face. Freya is licking her lips as she trailed her hands on my hips. "Let me bring you into a place where I can make
"Yuri! In all people, why Agatha? You let her bring me home?" Lexie could not afford it and seemed to lose her patience. "And who do you think I would call? Besides, you are safe with her. Even if people catch you together, it won't be a problem. As you know, they would probably be elated to see you guys hang out." Lexie, even more, became vexed. "Oh! God, Yuri. The hell!" Grumbling, Lexie lifted her head out of trouble, touching her temple, not knowing if it ached due to a hangover or if Agatha was the reason. "I know, but I had no choice. My mom was rushed to the hospital last night." "What? How was she now? Gosh. I'm so sorry to hear that, Yuri. I didn't know, but please, next time, it could be anyone but not Agatha." "She's recovering. How about you? Are you alright? Don't you remember anything at all? Damn girl. You had the guts to confess your feelings to her with all ears and eyes wide open." "What? What are you talking about?!" Lexie got confused, meeting Yuri's eyes. "
I was about to sleep when Clover came. She faces me, crying for the first time. I noticed that she had been drinking but not that drunk. "I love you so much, Agatha. I'm sorry, okay. I won't do anything to make you upset again. But please don't leave me. I can't.." I just hugged her. When she calmed down, she moved to face me again, throwing a forced smile at me. "I watched Lexie's mall tour. You did go to show your support. That's good for your upcoming movie together.." Clover said, followed by smiling again. "Hmmm. When are you going to shoot again? Can I come?!" She asked in a seemingly sad voice. I just nodded in agreement. "You can come anytime...just say so," I explained then she snuggled me into a hug. I frowned as there seemed to be something strange about her. "Have you had dinner yet? Do you want to eat?!" I asked as Clover sat on the couch. I just looked at her while standing in front of her. She shook her head for a few moments. "I haven't eaten since yesterday.." He
After a tiring day, my back directly collapsed on my soft bed when I got home. I let out a deep sigh as my hands were spread, and I just stared at the ceiling. I reflect on the scenes of Lexie singing on stage. She is still excellent, nothing has changed, and she is even more attractive. A thought came back from the dead. I was about to try to pursue her to take back all my hurtful words, but I didn't have the chance to do so. Lexie changed her number and her place. I have lost contact with her. That's when I thought that's maybe for the best because I didn't deserve her. It's all from the past now. What I heard from Yuri suddenly came to my mind. Does Lexie need to use me as an excuse for that, Orio? Does she have to lie for something else? I shake my head at that idea. She made me believe in something that I felt was true. For a moment, I deemed sorry for her, thinking I'd become so cruel to her and didn't at least stand for her feelings about me. Perhaps this is all pla
A sudden doorbell cut my thoughts. Perhaps Clover now realizes what she is doing behind my back. Good for her because I don't give a shit. I may love her, but that's not enough reason not to put an end to everything if she messes up. She knows me better than anyone. I don't tolerate stupid things. As I opened the door, my eyes narrowed. "And who are you?!" Suddenly I speak up. "Can I come in?!" I hissed at his apparent rudeness from there. "Didn't you hear me first? I said, who are you.." Emphasizing my last statement and throwing him a killer look, he just grinned, making me revolt. "Oh, my bad.. I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Facundo Monte Mayor, manager of Lexie Lewis." My mouth hangs open. So this is the asshole they were talking about. Without my permission yet, he welcomes himself to come in. I gaped in disbelief. Doubtless, he's indeed a pain-in-the-ass kind of person. "Today is Lexie Mall tour.. and I have a favor to ask, but of course, if you would not mind.
Orio suddenly came to the set. He was probably looking for Lexie, but Yuri saw him first. "You are looking for Lexie?" He turned to where the voice came from. He just nodded in response. "I don't think this is the right time for you to talk..." Yuri said. "Did her manager ban her? I know Yuri. That Facundo brought nothing good between Lexie and me because our tandem before didn't go well.""Hey.. Don't be like that. He's just avoiding more issues to come." "I don't see any problem if all I wanna is to apologize to Lexie. That's all I've got, Yuri, so if you could please help me.""You know, Lexie. She will talk when she's ready, Orio, but for now, it's better to cool down the issues first. Then come what may, you can talk to her again." "It's fine, Yuri..." Suddenly Lexie showed up with a flat face. "What you have to say, Orio?" She asked in a calm tone. Yuri left, giving them the privacy they needed. Hesitantly Orio tried to open his mouth, gulping, collecting all his courage to
After a run-off at the mouth, Clover finally forgave me. Still, I hadn't mentioned to her about a producer who offered me to be part of the main cast of the movie that he would produce. I know Clover will support me, but Lexie is the one I'll be paired off with within the said movie. I should ask for her opinion as my girlfriend after what happened. Maybe now she wants me to stay away from Lexie. That's understandable, but if I were asked and got to decide, I would not think twice about going for it. An opportunity like this is once in a lifetime, like in a fairytale I used to read in my childhood days. But to my surprise, she agreed. "I can turn it down, Clover. Besides, I'm a writer, not an actress.." "What the hell are you talking about? Of course not! Why would I deprive you of this turning point in your career? Yeah, at first, I was hurt when you lied or didn't tell me about Lexie, but that's it. All are well now. As you said, that's already in the past, and you have nothi
The following day, Lexie, in her room, wearing her lingerie with her tied-up messy hair, was still preoccupied with what happened the other day."What got into your head, Lexie, and you let that happen? People started taking photos and videos of you. Everything can be discussed in private. You are fully aware of that.." Her manager reprimanded her the very moment it entered her bedroom, raising an eyebrow with a frowning forehead when they met, talking about her viral video. "Don't know how to knock first? So early in the morning for this nagging.." She uttered with irritation visible on her face. Her intense exchange of words with Orio, confessing her feelings about Agatha, is spreading and getting attention on social media so fast. Lexie, for the first time, didn't seem to regret what she did and was proud of herself. She still couldn't believe it after she let go of her long-standing feelings for Agatha, along with the censored eyes around them."But anyway... What else could w
"Isn't that Agatha Nguyen? The famous novel writer who acted like a hero?!" Orio exclaimed.Orio is her long-time suitor and co-actor that she had worked on before in one of her movies. "How did you know her by face?!" Figuring out, she asked. "I saw her one time on some vlog, I guess. She had a meet and greet with her loyal readers. Some of them recorded it. That's how I knew her." Orio explained, peeking at Agatha not far away. "Do you wanna join them?!" Instantly, Lexie opposes his suggestion. "Why not? I heard you guys will soon have a project together. Isn't it?" "It's not confirmed yet though my manager talks about it earlier on the phone. But she said she will call me if there's any update." "So you are too looking forward to working with her, though." Orio seems to be apprehensive. "I'm not the one to decide that. It's always my manager. You sound not okay with it.. What's the matter?" "First time, if ever. You are going to be partnered with a girl, Lexie. Aren't you a
Agatha is at present in bed next to her girlfriend, who is lying on her chest and hugging her. "Gossip has wings. I perceived what happened on the set the other day. I'm so proud of you, pochi.. You save my idol from an impending audacious act." "Uncertainty. The bastard already acquired what he wanted. But I will guarantee it won't fall out again. I'm gonna expose him and ravage his career in my power." "That's a relief, then. My beloved girlfriend is protecting my idol, Lexie. That's awesome!" The girl exclaimed. Meanwhile, Agatha couldn't get out of her mind what had occurred. How many times has Lexie experienced that? To imagine it, she is squirming out in annoyance. Her blood seems to be boiling, and she wants to kick someone's ass at that very moment. And Lexie, on the other side of the world, was having a deep thought while sitting on the veranda, handling her glass of wine sipping on it as she stared into the void. Return to her memories of her various bad experiences th
