The worst thing for Elena Ryder was falling endlessly for Harry Grey. The one guy that had everyone's attention since high school and the same guy who had been friends with the famous Shawn Smith. Elena, Shawn, and Harry had all been friends since elementary but it all goes south the moment feelings arouse. Shawn was in love with Elena but she was in love with Harry. 
As time goes on, Elena realizes Harry would never look at her the same way Shawn does so she decides to take a chance on Shawn who would never give up on having her. Harry left Seattle for England that year returning four years later, re-opening that lost feeling Elena hid in her closet.

Loving my boyfriend's best friend

When I saw Shawn at the club where we all normally hang out, I was so surprised. I looked around but there was no sight of Elena and Harry. Did he come here alone because if it's what I think it is, then things just got better! I want to tell him everything. How I feel about him. All the years, I've only loved Shawn, not the way Elena does. Elena just used Shawn as a distraction. She's not what's best for him, I am. 


I just want Shawn to look at me, kiss me, touch me, and make me feel alive. Just look at me for once Shawn. 


"Hey." I sat down next to him, trying to get his attention. He diverted his eyes from his drink, looking at me. 


"I told you to stay away from me, Elena. Why do you keep following me around?" Shawn looked away, pouring a drink into his glass. 


"Actually, it's Anna," I say, feeling a little disappointed. 


"Oh." He said, not like he really cared but I was just hurt that he couldn't even recognize me but all that he could think about is that piece of shit. Elena was always in my way. She thinks she could have everything to herself but guess what, I'm going to take what's mine. 


"What happened between you guys?" I asked him. 


"You know what hurts the most..." Shawn paused, taking a sip from his drink. I poured into a glass too and drank. 


"The person you love so much doesn't love you the same way you do. And it's just still hard to give such a person up. I love Elena but I don't think she feels the same way. It's just so hard for me to think." Shawn bowed his head on the table, ruffling his hair. 


"Well, there can be other people out there who feel the same way you feel." 


"Shawn, I know it's wrong saying this but I've never stopped loving you. Ever since we were little, I started having these feelings. When my family had I moved into the neighborhood you were was when I started feeling this way. I never knew introducing Elena to you would make you depart from me. You're mine. Shawn, Shawn...." I called him but he didn't reply. I later realize that he had fallen asleep a long time ago. Fuck, I was just rambling all the entire time. 


I took him to my house. He was quite heavy. As I laid him on the bed tiredly, I fell on him. My eyes speedily went to his lips. I couldn't help but stare. The temptation was biting me badly. 


"Don't do it." I murmured, trying to control myself. 


"Oh, c'mon. It's not like the whole house will crumble if you just kiss him." My mind spoke to me. 


"But, Elena." Even if I hate Elena so much for stealing Shawn from me, she's still my friend. 


"Elena doesn't care about him. You said it yourself that she's in love with another person. So just have your way this night. Just kiss him. I know you're dying for it." It spoke again. 


I let myself to be taken away as I kissed those tasty lips. 


"One last kiss and that's all," I say, kissing him once more. 


Shawn's body reacted to the kiss. He kissed me back. Oh my butt! SHAWN IS KISSING ME! 


Suddenly my phone ranged. I was so annoyed that someone was trying to ruin the moment. I checked the caller. It was Elena. There was no way I was picking that call. I ignored it but she kept on calling. I ended up picking the call by mistake. I couldn't lie to her that I never knew where Shawn was. He was right on my bed and there were a lot of things going through my head to do with him. Just the thought of it made me wet. I had to lie to her. I had no choice. 


"I gotta go." I hung up the call. I took a deep breath and got back to business. 


"Now, where were we," I say, stripping off my dress.
