All Chapters of More Than Best Friends: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

“You haven’t been replying to my texts since last night? Is everything okay with you?” Craig asked as he fed Elena her chops, his brown eyeballs roaming around her face. “Ohh. I totally forgot. I’ve been busy, and a lot is on my mind. I’m sorry.” She replied to him as she smiled, leaning to place a peck on his cheeks. “Is Gaby okay with you? She has been acting out of the blue since yesterday, she didn’t come home, and she didn’t say anything about it.” He added as she leaned away, his eyes containing concern as he stared into space. Elena’s brows earned a raise at his words, “she didn’t come home?” “Nope. When I called, she said she was passing the night at James' place. Didn’t say anything than that.” He replied. “I called her, and she said she’s with James. So she’s not lying about that for first.” Elena added. Craig sighed before turning to face her, a small smile on his lips. “Just be with her and always talk

“What?” Elena and Silver said together.“I knew that if I acted like something was wrong with me. You guys would take your eyes off the boys and finally focus on me. Not to mention, I know Craig has something to do with this. He loves me more than himself.” She added, leaning back as she smiled with her teeth.Silver and Elena stared at her, their expression unreadable.“Are you for real or saying this to escape?” Silver was the first to talk.“Let’s go shopping then,” Elena said to Silver, sitting straight as she faced the front.“Alright.” Gaby replied from the backseat.“Did you see the post they wrote about you, Elena? I know Craig asked them to take it down, but did you see it? It was wild.” She said from the backseat as Silver started the car again.“Do you have it? I’ll like to see it.” Elena retorted before Gaby passed her the phone.**************Craig picked up Elena the next day at her place, dropping her off and pecking her before going to the basketball field. Elena arri

“That's a tough one, Bianca.” One of the guys said as the whole class burst into laughter.Elena’s lips curled up, staring at Bianca with a victorious smirk on her lips.“Would you like to return to your seat?” She asked, raising her brows after.Bianca scoffed out, her lips contorted into a dangerous and angry smirk.“Fine. I’ll do one of the things you said and have them bring it to you. But brace yourself. It might not be funny like you think it is.”“I don’t think it’ll be funny either way. So just try to be better in that aspect.” Elena replied.“What’s going on here?” The teacher's voice rang out before Bianca could talk.“Bye,” Elena said, adding a little mockery wave for Bianca as she walked to her seat.Everyone scrambled to their seats as the teacher walked to the front of the class. Silver rushed inside the class halfway into it, catching Elena’s lance and mouthing some words to her.“We need to talk.”**************Elena has not been settled ever since Silver mouthed the

“Happy Birthday, Gaby,” they all chorused, walking towards her simultaneously.The hall was larger than Gaby had expected. She looked at their faces one after the other, each radiating with smiles.“Wow. This is too big. Who put everyone up for this? Craig?” She called out, looking into his eyes.He reached her first, engulfing her in a hug and pressing his lips on her forehead.“I love you step sister.” He muttered to her.Gaby’s heart warmed as she heard it. They were not siblings, and he took her in as his own. When her mom told her about remarrying, the first thing that came to her mind was the family they’ll be getting married to. If they’ll accept her, and if the son her mother claimed he had would be nice to her.The first day she got to the house, he was not around, but when he got back, he arrived with many things. She remembered him standing in front of her door, his expression stiff as it could be, and with a bag in his hand.“I don’t know much about girl's things but I got

The whole school seemed different to Elena the next day. It was as if everyone was minding their business and ensuring nothing happened. Just like how she took an Uber yesterday, she was already calling one when Silver arrived at the front of her door and asked to ride with her. They didn't say anything to each other throughout the ride, and as she packed her car, Elena muttered thanks to her before dashing out of the car.She had several messages from Craig, but she was not in any mood to reply to anyone. Gaby hadn't texted, she didn't say anything, and it kind of hurt her, making her think she didn't really care about her. Like she thought, everything was just fake right from the start.“Elena, have you heard what’s going on?” She suddenly heard Silver say beside her, eyeing her as she halted in her steps.“What’s going on?” she questioned, continuing her walk immediately.“Check the gossip forum. Seems Craig was serious when he said he would involve their parents. And if you didn’t
