As I close the phone after talking to Jose I feel incredibly self conscious.
Its like suddenly Christian is some stranger rather then my bestfriend.
I hear a ping on my phone and pick it up to check who sent me a message.
"Happy friendship's day,May there be sex in your life and life in your sex it says"
I chuckle softly and I know its from Christian,is he Cecelia Ahern now?
I decide to wish Kate friendships day and also ask her how she has been since I haven't talked with her in ages.
"Hey,whats up?Happy friendships day are you pregnant yet or what?" I text her.
I get an instant reply which says
"nope how about you Steele? Settled down yet? sleeping with Christian?"
Geez,she is forward "something did happen" I text back with a wink just to tease her.
"Ohmygod!You didn't!"
"Calm down Kate!"
Kate:I can't this is too bizarre! you two are like siblings.
Ana:we did not!
Kate:Oh then?
Ana:well I am hardly going to tell you now Miss.
Kate:Just tell me!
Ana:Okay so Christian and I shared a kiss.
Kate:How was it?
Ana:It was mindblowing! the best kiss I ever had.
Kate:Did you feel like having sex afterwards?
Ana:eeer
Kate:Oh my god you did! Anastasia Rose Steele,finally falling for a man!
Ana:Babe got to go Christian is calling! ttyl.
Kate:Sure love,see you soon xx
Christian drives me back home and the drive is pretty silent,It is awkward to talk after sharing a kiss with a boy who used to sleep on the sleeping bag on your floor,the boy who used to sneak into your room since the age of twelve,a guy who has seen me in my underwear,The little Christian I used to chase around,the Christian who sat besides me at lunch for many years,was there for me when my mom remarried.
He was so supportive through out the whole thing even though I know it must have been hard for him.
"So should I pick you up tomorrow at seven in the evening for a movie?"
Christian says but I have to tell him no,I can not watch a movie with him after sharing a kiss.
"No I don't think tomorrow will be possible for me"I say softly.
"Why not?"he questions with his one eye brow raised.
"I have a date"
Christian looks startled and speechless.
Then some how he regains control of his emotions and his face breaks into a smile but that smile doesn't reach his eyes.
"You sly lady!Why didn't you tell me about the date earlier"he says while smirking.
"It must have slipped my mind,Brian is a great guy,Works in the same company as me so we get to see a lot of eachother"
"Okay tell me all about him!"he exclaims.
"We met a few weeks earlier in a night club,he took my number and asked me out,I said no at first but then he came over to my place,I have been wined and dined like never before,he is really romantic.I won't give you the details of our weekend together" why am I lying suddenly? Yes I talk a lot to Brian but we have never even been out together! Am I trying to make Christian jealous? whats wrong with me?
"He is thirty six,not exactly tall as you,he has sandy colored hair and wonderful twinkling green eyes."
I glance up and look at Christian's face set in a hard line.
