In that case, we will head straight to office from here.”

 

“I don’t inderstand! Why do you want to drag me with you to Heathers?”

 

“I don’t want to drag you anywhere. I just refuse to leave for office without you. We always go to office together, and we will always go there together. Whether or not Heather will join us, it’s completely up to you.”

“What’s with him? Aren’t I supposed to be the childish and stubborn one?” Kiara murmured to herself.

 

“Did you say anything?”

 

“Er.. No. But Brian, think about it. It’s your...”

 

“Kiara, if you are about to give me another lecture on privacy and romance, then save it. There are several ways to express love and it doesn’t always require a secluded settings. And besides, if I want private moments with Heather, then I can always take her on dates.”

 

“But Brian, think about Heather! She is...”

 

“my girlfriend and therefore will have to be understanding and accepting of my best friend. Any girlfriend of mine will need to get used to your presence around me all the time, Kiara. And I’m sure Heather will understand that. She’s witnessed us all this time after all. Now, if you are done wasting both of our time and energy sweating over this issue, then I suggest you to start gating ready. If we are to pick up Heather as you suggested, then we need to leave in 10 minutes. That is considering the fact that you do want us to go there.”

 

“Okay, okay we will go together to Heathers. Just let me tell you, you are being ridiculously stubborn here.”

 

Brian shrugged grinning “I learned from the best.”

 

Kiara stucked her tongue out childishly at Brian and then started to go to her room to get ready.

 

“Kiara?”

 

“What?” Kiara asked stopping on her way.

 

Brian stride towards her and pulled her in a tight hug. “Just because I’m in a relationship now, nothing about our friendship will ever change. Always remember that.” He whispered in her ears.

Brian stood nervously holding the flower bouquet that he bought on the way as he waited for Heather to answer her door. He had yet to get used to the fact that the Angelic Heather Brown was now actually his girlfriend. In his mind, he couldn’t quite shake the fear that Heather will refuse to acknowledge him as her boyfriend when she will see him and then last night’s event will all turn out to be a crazy dream that he had in his sleep due to his obsession with her.

 

“Brian! What are you doing here!” Heather’s cheery voice pulled him out of his wary thoughts and he looked up to her beautiful eyes that were shining with happiness. She seemed genuinely happy and pleasantly surprised to see him there. Brian’s heart started beating widly seeing her beautiful smile.

 

“I..uh...” , for a moment he struggled to find some words to say. He still had a trouble figuring how to act when he was around Heather. This was all too new to him and the fact that he is extremely shy by nature was not helping his case either. Then his eyes fall on the bouquet he was holding and then remembering about it, he almost shoved it into Heathers hands. “Th..This is for you,” he told her while inwardly he cursed himself for acting so stupidly.

 

The smile Heather gifted her in response however, made him forget all about it. He was truly mesmerized by it. “That’s so sweet of you! This bouquet is really gorgeous! Is that why you came here? To surprise me with this?” She asked him shyly.

 

“No..I mean.. yes and also to pick you up for office, that is ..if you don’t mind ofcourse!”Brian now wanted to kick himself for being so nervous in front of his girlfriend. He wanted to get a grip on himself.

 

“Oh no no no no! I don’t mind! I would love to go with you! Just let me grab my things!” She said excitedly and then ran into the house and came back within a few minutes. As soon as she finished locking her door, she turned to him and said excitedly “Let’s go.”

 

Brian’s heart melt as he looked at her excited face and he couldn’t help the smile that was now probably reaching his ear.

 

As the two of them reached the car that Brian parked in front of Heather’s house, Kiara got out of it so that she could greet Heather.

 

“Hello Heather, how are you today?” Kiara asked with what she hoped a warm smile as she isn’t really good with expressing herself.

 

Heather , who was clearly surprised by Kiara’s sudden appearance but quickly recovered from it, replied with a warm smile of her own, “I’m fine Kiara. And really happy. And it’s all because of you.” She admitted shyly. “Which reminds me I never get to thank you for what I did last night. I must admit, it was a bit unconventional and for a moment I even panicked when you got down on your knee, but it’s all thanks to your crazy act that today I and Brian are together.”

 

Kiara opened her mouth to respond but Brian beat her to it. “I know ,right? And guess what, this morning she was all being stubborn on not coming with me thinking she will be on our way! She was all set on give us some privacy and I literally had to drag her with me telling her over and over again that you won’t mind!”

 

“Oh of course I don’t mind! I know that you two are best friend and are really close to each other and hardly can stay apart. And you two shouldn’t stay apart. You two share a wonderful friendship and I enjoy witnessing it. I am really happy that you came here with Brian.” Heather said with a genuine smile.

 

“See? I told you that she would understand!” Brian told her with the huge grin that was plastered on his face as he stared at Heather with sheer admiration.

 

Kiara knew that Heather’s smile and speech towards her were genuine. But she also knew that the emotion that initially crossed in Heathers eyes upon seeing her was that of disappointment. It appeared for a really brief moment, way too brief for Brian to notice as he was too wrapped in his own admiration of Heather, and frankly Heather covered it pretty quickly with her dazzling smile. However as brief as it was, it still couldn’t flee past Kiara’s eyes and the moment she saw it, she knew that it was completely justified.

 

“I knew it.” She whispered in her mind. “This was a bad idea.”

 

Chapter 8

 

Brian whistled happily as he wondered around his kitchen. The past one month has been a month of pure bliss. His life possibly couldn’t be any more perfect. He was dating the most amazing woman in the earth, his best friend was the bestest best friend that ever existed and on top of that, his girlfriend, and his best friend, the two most important women in his life, was getting along perfectly with each other. Kiara of course being Kiara, still often tried time to time to distance herself in order to give him and Heather some “privacy”, however he would have none of that. And neither would Heather, he noticed with pleasure. In this short period, Heather and Kiara have become really close to each other, and that meant a lot to Brian. Brian knew that it was neither natural nor easy for Kiara to become so close with someone in such a short period of time. Kiara by nature is sort of an antisocial person and usually doesn’t let anyone in easily. Brian knew for a fact that it was for the sake of his happiness that Kiara had made an active effort to become good friends with Heather so that Heather never feels uncomfortable. His heart swelled with pride as he thought of his best friend. And Heather, who is friendly by nature, being the sweet person she is, took an immediate liking to Kiara. Why wouldn’t she? She could see the purity and uniqueness of this otherwise crazy and childish girl right away! And now, this two has become so close that today Heather has actually refused a date with him because she wanted to hang out with Kiara! She said that she wanted to have some girltime with her. Brian shook his head in amusement. Yeah, just imagine that! Kiara having a “girltime” and talking about “girly” things! Heather should’ve known better than expecting anything “girly” from Kiara out of all the people. “Girltime she says!” Brian chuckled to himself as his mind played different scenes on Kiara being girly while his hands were working on the cake he was making for her. It was a habit that he formed in a very young age. Whenever he had too much free time and Kiara wasn’t there to spend it with he would always spend it by baking something for her. He loved baking, and loved even more watching Kiara eat the food that he baked for her.

 

 

When Brian was thinking about the past month in his kitchen, Kiara was doing the same thing in her car as she drove through the busy street. The past one month had indeed been satisfying.  Although, there were times when a nagging feeling kept intruding on the back of her mind on which she could not quite put her fingers. Something had been bugging her but she did not know what it was so she chose to ignore that feeling and focus on the positive turn of events that took place in their life with Heather’s entry on it. At first, she had been a bit worried that Heather might not like her constant presence around Brian and herself and might want a little privacy for themselves. However, it turned out that her worries had been unnecessary as Heather not only welcomed her presence with a warm heart but actually insists on it and for that she was really grateful. Heather was undoubtedly an amazing girl and Kiara felt really happy for Brian for getting her as his girlfriend. However, that doesn’t mean that she still doesn’t feel guilty about intruding on their couple moments all the time. That’s why she tried to distance herself from them from time to time to give them a moment but only, Brian would not let her! Kiara shook her head in amazement. For a guy who is known for his intelligence, Brian sure could be ridiculously dense when it comes to his love life. It’s a relief that he’s got such an amazing girl as Heather as his girlfriend or otherwise he had been long dumped by the way he acts. Kiara frowned as a sudden thought occurred to her. Maybe, she should be worried about Heather and Brian’s relationship? Maybe, their relationship is as not perfect as it seems? Afterall, when Heather called her to ask her if she could meet her that day she did sound rather nervous and maybe a little bit disturbed? Could it be that Heather finally have had enough of her presence around them and wanted her to back off? Could this be the reason that she
