They have been best friends for eighteen years.
Life happened and they lost touch...
Seventeen years later, family and fate decided to give it another try.

Gabe and Gabby both accomplished a great deal in their life. He is rich, handsome and
successful. She is independent, smart, wealthy, not to mention gorgeous. He was
named one of the most eligible bachelors, and she just wanted to find a guy
that will love her... not her money.

When Gabe saw Gabby for the first time after seventeen years, he knew exactly what
he wanted. He just had to make her realize it, and Gabby was terrified. Coming on
too strong and with so much passion was frightening for Gabby, but Gabe was persistent
and would not give up this time. How else would he make her see him as
something more than a best friend she grew up with? He didn't want to spend the
rest of his life wondering what would or would not be. After all, seventeen
years would not let him forget...

Would he survive if she didn’t want the same thing?

My Boyfriend's Best Friend: Diary Of A Delightful Disasters by JoanneJamess
73 parts Complete Mature
[ongoing] [18+] Dear Diary, it's me, Lola. I'm still stuck in a relationship with Ivan. Do I love him? Maybe. Am I in love with him? No. And his friends are constantly hanging in our apartment making it harder for me to deal with all the personalities living in my head. Especially HIM - Michael, my boyfriend's best friend! A classic arrogant, selfish, manipulative player, a walking red flag who thinks he can have any girl in the world. Okay, he probably can, and maybe I'm just jealous of his freedom and the ease with which he gets whatever he wants. I wonder if he could have me too... Oh God, brain, stop! I hate him, for heaven's sake! I can't let him get into my head, so I always avoid eye contact with him. If Medusa were a man, he would look like Michael. *** After facing heartbreaks and unfulfilled loves, Lola settles down with what seems like the perfect boyfriend: he's loaded, easy on the eyes, and has a degree to flaunt. He sweeps her into a world of constant parties and upscale living, but for Lola, it's all just meh. She's depressed, experiences constant mood swings, and hides her true self from everyone. In her diary, she doesn't describe the luxury that surrounds her because she despises money. Amidst battling her inner demons and trying to escape a relationship that's playing on repeat, another plot twist kicks in - her boyfriend's best friend. His charm and playful banter aren't making it any easier for Lola to keep her heart on lockdown. Now, she's stuck in a moral struggle: whether to surrender to the first positive feeling she's had in a long time or stick to the script of reason and steer clear of this dangerous attraction. *Based on the true story*

I put on a show only for him in front of hundreds of people. I bring one hand up to my hair flicking them to the other side, trailing that hand down to my sternum and then my boob as I keep swaying my hips from to side, bending my knees as I lower myself a bit to the ground before sharply standing up again and slowly spinning around, circling my hips. I run my hands through the back of my hair before nailing my gaze on his eyes, slowly walking up to him. I watch him as he wets his lips before biting his plumb bottom one, eyes trailing up my body. Once I reach him, I wrap my arms around his neck and run my fingers through his hair as I press my body up against his. His hands shoot out to grab me from my lower waist, pulling me even closer to him as he pushes a leg between mine, staring into my eyes. I turn my head to the side and brush my lips against his ear before licking and biting his earlobe the same way I did at the party before whispering a few words he was dying to hear. "Take me back to your place." ---------- Theo is a 20-year-old university student with a bad temper. Letting go of the past can be a difficult thing to do but a much-needed one to move on.

"Fuck." He whispers into my neck, sending a thrill of excitement through my body. His lips still smothered kisses over my neck and his hands roamed my body, starting at my chest, going down to my stomach. Caressing my soft skin, his thumb trailed circles on my groin before slightly slipping into the waistband of my jeans. My breath catches in my throat as I pull at the hoodie that covered his chiselled body. Understanding, Jacob pulls it off in one swift movement before attaching his lips back on my neck. Sucking and biting it before flicking his tongue over the sore spot. A quiet moan leaves my mouth and I clasp my hand over it, denying any noise to escape. "You drive me fucking crazy, Aria." ---------------------------- Aria Bailey finds it hard to fit in. Her parents are always busy and never have time for her.

"You have no idea how badly I want to make love to you," he responds with a shake of his head. "I love you so much," he continues and my heart melts. "I love you," I whisper back. "Okay, I'm going to make love to you now, Angel. It will hurt a little, so let me know if it hurts too much," he says and leans down to kiss me. "I'll be gentle," he tells me. Keeping his eyes locked on mine he shifts his hips forward slightly and enters inside of me. My mouth widens as he enters, and I feel a slight pinch.

"Marry me." he drawled out sexily. His eyes filled with desire and for the first time in my life, I felt the danger of my chastity being taken tonight. I took a deep breath as I eyed my best friend who had been with me since I was eleven. "We're friends, Gabriel. Don't do this." My voice weakened with every word I say. He chuckled dangerously and it felt like music in my ears, "Friends? Friends don't desire each other, Marianne. Don't think that I didn't know you were blocking the girls who were trying to take my number back then." I gritted my teeth as I felt the embarrassment of what I did back then when we were sixteen. I glared at him and punched his chest, "Then why did you still flirt with them?! You like playing around with my feelings?!" He stopped my hand from punching his chest. He lowered his head and put his nose to my neck to inhale my scent. "I didn't flirt with them, babe. I didn't text them. The texts you saw came from my other number I used to pretend I was texting myself. You don't know how crazy I get from holding back from touching you. The mere smell of yours is driving me crazy. So marry me, Marianne. Give me the right to taste you." His hoarse voice sounded painful but filled with desire, I shut my eyes tightly as nervousness and butterflies were swirling on my stomach, my knees trembling from excitement. He pulled my waist and he smashed my lips with his hungry mouth. His lips devoured my lips and his tongue invaded every inch of my mouth. ~~~~ Marianne and Gabriel had been bestfriends ever since they were teenagers. After becoming an adult, Marianne became a corporate office worker who only wants to farm while Gabriel became the most sought-after billionaire bachelor in the Philippines.
