Sleeping with my Bestfriend

Chapter 30 - Part of Moving on

           

As planned, Anabelle, Jason, Kyle and I all, toured Seattle. At first it was awkward having to meet them early in the morning. They wore their casual clothes compared to their formal office wear. This surprised me most seeing them this way.

Anabelle looked elegant adorned in navy and white flowery summer dress with brown wedge heels to match her big brown bag. Her hair curled and her make up seamless. Jason wore navy jeans with a light blue shirt rolled on his sleeves. His hair was jelled back in waves and his eyes were framed with dark sunglasses. They looked like a perfect couple that could be cropped out of magazine.

I felt useless standing next to them in my ashy grey jeans and white crop top to match my black and white Vans. Kyle at least looked sexy in his leather jacket and dark jeans to match.

Looking at both brothers, their resemblance was uncanny.There was still an awkwardness between them when they greeted each other, but they both had content smiles on their faces. A lapse of silence stretched before Anabelle initiated the conversations. Since she was leading us, we followed her to the tour bus and there we met with our city guide.

The bus took us to all the tourist sites of Seattle. It took us an hour or two before we stopped at our next destination, Annabelle had planned.

It was a fair. The buzzing of activity lifted the awkwardness in our moods and I smiled for once since meeting them.

"Let's eat first," Anabelle said.

I nodded. "I'm craving a greasy hot dog and fries."

Kyle smiled, "You had a greasy breakfast, you still want more unhealthy food?"

I gave him a glare and acted offended as I smacked him on his arm. "It's almost that time of the month for me, don't judge me!"

He held his hand up in surrender before draping them around me. "I'm sorry, have all the greasy food you want. I'll buy. I'm after all now considered a millionaire since yesterday."

I perked up at this news. "You accepted, Jason's money?"

Kyle nodded. "Thinking about it, I was a dumbass for wanting to reject it in the first place. I can easily pay tuition with that money. I can afford to go the same college you're going to and still have enough left to buy my own place."

I gasped. "You're going to same college as me?"

He smiled, before pinching the bridge of my nose. "I'll follow you wherever go."

I hugged him back, so excited at this revelation. A weight lifting off my shoulders, the worry about what was going to happen to his future. Afterward, I dragged him to a hot dog stall. Jason and Anabelle following our trail smiling at my enthuasiam.

"Okay hot stuff, since you now have a million dollars in your bank. I want two hotdogs with fries." I mewled at him.

An outsider hearing sentence would probably think I was money crazed. Maybe I was, but knowing that Kyle will be going to the same college I was going to, knowing he will be with me, made me so giddy with excitement.

Later, after all our stomachs had been curbed of hunger. We went on to a few rides, but since I had too many hotdogs than I could handle, I refused the rides and contended with staying behind to watch them. Anabelle felt sorry for me and made Jason stay with me, while Kyle and she rode a merry-go-round.

It was awkward between me and Jason. I still felt uneasy about him, still felt a distrust.

Jason sensed this and turned to face me to say, "I'm sure you have questions, Keya. Feel free to ask."
