My Bestfriend's Brother Shouldn't Know How I Taste

50

Bailey's pov

Long night indeed.

As the giggles surged around us, Mirabella and Ryan seem to be too lost in their staring contest to realize the time was up.

" Why don't you two just bone and get it over with!" Stefan yelled beside me, chuckling when he managed to break their stares.

Mira quickly pulled her hand out, her face flushed as she looked at the floor. She bumped into Gracie on her way back here and didn't bother apologizing.

" Oh God this was embarrassing." She whispered, shame written on her face and printed on her words.

Katrina snorted. " I don't know, it seemed like you both were enjoying from here."

Mira flushed red, stuttering before she muttered shut up.

Katrina laughed while I try to comfort Mira. " Everyone is drunk, they'd probably not remember a thing after tonight."

Mira twisted her face. " They took pictures. That dirty bitch Kirsty is going to embarrass me with them."

I smiled sadly, unsure of what to say knowing she was right. Kirsty would certainly use this as revenge for Mira causing her to go bald.

Mira sighed and leaned over to grip the bottle. " Let's just get this over with girls."

The bottle spins and lands on another girl. She chose truth which she earned a chorus of boo's. The game continued on and I've been counting down the minutes until it ends.

But then of course, the universe conspires against me at the exact moment I thought things couldn't get any worse. Well it did. It really did.

The moment the bottle stopped on Stefan, I just knew nothing good would have came out of this. Especially when the girl had that glimmer in her eyes as she looked at us.

Why the hell did Stefan choose to stand beside me?

Why in the bloody fuck did I decide to agree to every little thing Mira pushed me into. God, I do this to myself and I can't help but feel pity for my own self.

" I dare you to kiss Bailey. "

While Stefan looked extremely happy about this dare, I was not. In fact I was on the verge of barfing.

Mira mouthed sorry to me and Katrina looked at me with pity, knowing I wouldn't be able to tell Stefan no because I was a good friend and didn't want him to shave his head.

"Please Bailey, I won't look good bald." He chuckled nervously when he saw my flight expression.

I bit my tongue to stop the urge to vomit and motioned for him to lean forward. When he does I whispered in his ear to kiss me on my cheek but make it believable.

He nods and tilts his head in a way to kiss my cheek. His lips are still too close for comfort but it's okay, he's my friend.

A chorus of cheers and ooh's rang around and I squeezed my eyes shut, praying that the time tick by quicker.

" Come on, give her some tongue. We want to see tongue!" The girl yelled and the rest agreed.

My heart drops.

Fuck.

Fuck!

My heart raced. Should I pretend to faint? Or should I just let the barf go and vomit right now? I mean it would give me a good excuse to run away.....

But just as my mind raced with possible ways of escape, the sound of police sirens loud and screeching, saved me.

Everyone yelled and panicked. In seconds they are running around the house for ways of escaping the cops.

Someone gripped my hand and I saw that it was Katrina. She held Mira's hand too. " Come on guys, we better get out of here now."

We nod and all three of us rushed to the back door. We run across the lawn and jumped over a fence before charging down the street.

When we were a good distance away from the party we stopped to take a breather. My hand is on my knee and I'm trying to hurl in as much air as I can get.

Jesus, my legs are killing me.

" What a fucked up night." Mira whispered, shivering.

Both Katrina and I glared at her. " And who is to be blamed for it!?" We yelled.

She winced. " Gosh, I know. I am sorry. I swear I'll never do any bet with Ryan again."

I rolled my eyes. Mira was bluffing. There was no way she'd miss an opportunity to one up her brother, Ryan or anyone. Mira loves betting and she loves winning even more.

" Boy am I glad that bottle never landed on me." Katrina sighed, straightening up and looking back.

I cringed and wiped my cheek where Stefan kissed. " Don't remind me."

Mira raised a brow. " I didn't think you'd go on with it."

" Well I couldn't make the poor guy lose his hair. You know Stefan adores his hair." © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

It's true, out of all the boys in the school, Stefan takes care of his hair the most.

Mira nodded. " True. How was it? The kiss?"

" We didn't really kiss Mira, it was kind of an illusion."

" Oh. Well then, that's good. It would be awkward you know." She replied.

" How will it be?" I asked.

Her shoulder lift into a shrug. " He's my brother's best friend and you're mine. If you two hooked up that would make us all hang out more." She poked her tongue out in a fake vomiting motion. " I already hate to see my brother's face every single day, imagine not getting a break from pennywise."

Katrina raised a brow. " Did you just call your brother pennywise? Like the scary clown in that horror movie."

Mira nod. " Yes. His face reminds me of that hideous clown."

Katrina shook her head and giggled. " Mira."

"Hmm?" Mira hummed, looking around the area. It was night and we really needed to be weary of our location.

"You and your brother are twins. You look alike. So technically you just said you look like pennywise too."

Mira gasped at Katrina's words and snapped. " You take that back Kat!"

Katrina giggled and I joined in. " You said it!" Kat defended.

Kat took off running when Mira chased her. I had no choice but to follow after. Three teenagers running down an empty street, laughing like maniacs. What a sight.

Stefan ended up meeting us and gave us a lift home. He apologized for kissing me, even though technically he hadn't touched my lips.

The car was awkward with just us two after we dropped off the girls.

When he finally dropped me off home, all I could do was thank God inwardly. I practically leaped out of the car, said a hasty goodbye and run to my house like my ass was on fire.

Mom and dad were not mad at me for being a bit late past the schedule time he gave me.

When I got in my bedroom, exhaustion weighed me down heavily and I found no strength to peel off my clothes, I thumped on the bed and groaned.

I was just about to drift off into La La land when my phone buzzed. I took it out and squinted at the screen. It was a text from Mira.

Mira: I am definitely going to win the bet against Kat. Juliet is currently sleeping over in Kaleb's room.
