Falling in love with my brothers best friend

Heart Racing

I was in my room changing when I heard my door slam shut. Emily had a key to my apartment,

so she always let herself in. “In here” I yelled to let her know I was in my room. I was preparing myself for all the questions I was about to get. I didn’t keep anything from Emily she knew everything about me, I also knew everything about her. She was more like a sister than a friend. “OMG, who did you meet last night, I need all the detail.” I knew she was going to ask this. It’s not like I wanted to hide it from her but I was scared that my brother was going to find out and I know he would not be ok with it. Luckily I know Emily will keep my secret. “Well I didn’t really meet anyone, technically.” I reply. “What do you mean? You told me on the phone that you did.” I know I’m going to just have to tell her. “Scott, came home with me. Nothing happened so don’t even go there. He made sure I got home safe and I asked him to stay because a guy grabbed me at the bar and I was freaked out. He slept on the couch I swear, but this morning we had a moment and he told me he’s had feelings for me for awhile now.” I just waited for her response. “OMG, that’s awesome you have liked him forever.” She all but yelled. I could tell she was excited. “I know, we are going to plan to hang out soon.” I was actually kind of giddy just thinking about it. Emily makes me tell her about what happened with the guy at the club last night. After about an hour of us talking she leaves to go to work. I finish getting ready for my day, even though I have nothing planned.

My phone rings while I’m at the store. “Hello” I answer. “Hey, it’s Scott. How is your day going?”

I start doing a little dance when I hear his voice. “Hey, my day is good so far just at the store, what about you?” “Its good” he replies “Did you want to get together later?” I wasn’t expecting him to want to hang out this soon. “Of course, just let me get these groceries home and you can come over.” I let him know. Once we hang up I go check out so I can get home. Once home I unload my groceries and about the time I’m done there is a knock on my door. My heart starts beating faster as I walk over. Hand on the knob I pause then open it.
