Maybe My Best Friend Is Still In There

We're here in our house, built by our parents. They'd suggest that we should honeymoon out of the country or on a cruise ship but I immediately declined their offer. They'll just waste their money. As if we would do 'that thing' right? Felix is ​​my best friend. He's like a brother to me and we, doing 'that thing' is incestuousness!

"This day is tiring. I feel like I can sleep all day!" I ranted while massaging my arms. I just finished bathing in the bathtub filled with milk and roses. I swear, these are all planned by my parents. I glanced at our heart-shaped bed with roses scattered on it, with a white mosquito net still hanging. I laugh mockingly in my mind. I also looked around and saw the scented candles. Wow! The effort!

I glanced at Felix and immediately doubted what I saw in his eyes. Is ... is that desire? Why is he looking at me like I'm stripping in front of him? I mentally laugh at my delusional assumptions. That's impossible! He's like a brother to me! though he's just months old from me. He knew how much I love his best friend, who's Nathan. Nathan and Felix are childhood best friends. While I and Felix became friends when we're in high school. Then suddenly our paths crossed and became the unbeatable three. They're always here for me as much as I'm always here for them. He saw how much I and Nathan tried to fight for our love for each other. I just didn't get why he didn't tell me that he has plans on becoming a priest. He also did not tell it to Felix. I was just surprised. When I returned from the accident, he was studying theology.

He walked towards me emphasizing his broad shoulders. His simple movements make his muscular body appear. His stance is not that different from Nathan's stance. The only difference is that Nathan achieved such a body by carrying fruits and vegetables in the market while he was in the gym.

My eyes widened and my jaw dropped when he leaned over for a kiss. He sucks my lips forcefully to the point that I can taste blood in it. He pushed his tongue inwards dominating my whole mouth. That's when I was hit by reality. I pushed him hard with my trembling hands. He was not pushed that much but it was enough for him to stop. Wh-why? I just can't get it ... he's like a brother to me!

"F-Felix you're my best friend"

"Angelie, please!" He pinned me onto the wall while kissing my neck hungrily.

I pushed him and slapped him while tears welled up in my eyes. My body is only for one person ... only for that one person! Why is he doing this to me?! He knew that I only married him because our company is at its peak of losing! He knew how much I love Nathan! His frigging best friend! He knew everything and yet ...

"I-I can't. You're like a brother to me! Why are you doing this?"

He ruffled his hair and punched the wall. He gasped and looked at me with a merciless expression.

"Is it because of him again, Angelie?! Fuck! We're married! I have needs! This is your obligation!" He pinned me again while nipping my breast hungrily, ruining my nightgown. I pushed him and slapped him, harder this time. He's not the Felix that I know.. My best friend will never do this to me!

"F-Felix please" I cringed as I said that. S-sorry Nathan. Baby, I'm so sorry someone else touched my body.... someone else's lips touched my lips. I promised him before that my body and heart will only belong to him. Only for him!

~ Flashback ~

He nibbled my upper part of the lips softly then lick the remaining juices on it. He's always been this gentle. Always treating me like a fragile glass.

"This-" he kissed my lips once again "and this, -" he smells my neck sending me an electrifying sensation all-over my body. "Promise me that you won't let any guy touch nor kiss your body. It will always be me. I apologize but your 'goods shipper' is damn territorial" he chuckled and kissed me once again

~ End of Flashback ~

"Fuck!" He stormed outside, slamming the door. It hurts to lose a partner and to lose a best friend at the same time.

He knew how much I'm hurt right now. He knew how much pain I've felt earlier. Why did he do that? Or maybe he's just confused, maybe my best friend is still in there, maybe he's pressured by our parents since both families are expecting an heir or an heiress, maybe Nathan's best friend is still in there. I should not judge him! He's still my best friend. We've been together for years and one mistake won't ruin our friendship.

I went to the bathroom to fix myself. There is a slight trace of blood on my lips, my neck and chest are also red. I wiped the tears from my eyes. Maybe he's just pressured that's why he did it.

I called one of my trusted friends. Adair ...

"A-Adair can you sleep here? Even just for tonight?"

"Are you planning to make me a third wheel there, huh?! Tonight is your honeymoon, just to remind you! Don't envy me, Sunday!"

If this is a normal day, I would be mad when she called me Sunday. Sunday because it's next to Satterle! (Saturday!). You really won't expect that she's a well-known model if you will base on her use of words.

"Sunday .... do you have a problem? I'm on my way." Maybe she noticed my few seconds of silence or maybe she thought that something is wrong because I didn't scold her when she called me Sunday. She's indeed a true friend. She knows whenever I'm hurt.

"Thank you, Adair." I ended the call.

I met Adair in the states. She's the first person I saw when I gain my consciousness after the incident. She's also the one who received the bouquet when I tossed it, earlier. I laughed hard when I saw her cursed when the audience asks to highen the garter that is worn on her thigh and what makes it even funnier is that the one who receives the garter is the one whom she bullied when we're in high school. Imagining her embarrassment there makes me laugh. She even told me that she didn't take a bath cause she just finished her out of the country work. I think she'll be sponsored by an international brand.

I walk towards the kitchen to drink a glass of water but stopped halfway when I saw Felix downstairs ... kissing a woman aggressively. The woman was almost undressed and one of her breasts was out. I cringed when I heard her moan.

I knew that there are no feelings attached in this marriage but he should at least, respect me or this house built by our parents. Felix opened his eyes and looked at me but instead of stopping what he's doing, he continued while staring at my face. Hoping to see any reaction in it.

Honestly, I'm used to this attitude of his. He's been doing this since high school! Making out with girls while staring at me. I don't know why.

I went down when I heard the doorbell ring. I met them on the stairs. I looked at the woman and gasped when I saw her smiling at me teasingly as she moaned louder. I look at her from her feet to her eyes and noticed that she's a very rich slut, wearing a signature outfit.

I turned my gaze at the door. My eyes widened when I saw Adair. She's silently crying while staring at Felix and his girl with her palms covering her mouth to stop herself from creating any noise. And then it all sinks into me. I forgot that Adair likes Felix! How cruel of me to send her here without thinking that all of them are expecting that this night will be our honeymoon! Dumb aishh!
