Your best friend (remember him?)

Any other day you and Scarlett would have hung around and made loud bets about who would win but since she was exhausted you decided to cut her a break.

It was time for class and you were immediately greeted by an unimpressed best friend.

“Oh if it isn't the girl who is too busy to pay attention to her best friend, you've changed since coming to uni.” Andrew deliberately pouts.

“Oh wow, I've changed since when were you a little bitch? Uhh hang on that came out a little meaner than I meant it to, sorry. But before you go getting any more pouty I have some news, its not sorted yet but I was chatting with Chelsea and she's considering going on that date with you. I still have to sell you a bit more but she's considering you so I think that's something.”

His face lights up, “Really? Ooo that's awesome, you better be talking me up a whole heap on Friday then.”

“Yes, Yes any other cheerleaders you have your eyes on? I'm hanging out with them this Friday night so I can try to scope them out.”

“A cheerleader party this Friday, why don't I have an invite?”

“Sorry its not a party more like a girls night.”

“Haha a girls night... They clearly don't know how much trouble they're in. Also I don't know any others. Can I come with you one of their training sessions?”

You sigh “I guess, I'll set you up on a date with the head cheerleader and then I'll help you scope out a back up if that doesn't work. But you are gonna owe me for this.”

“Whats a favour between best friends,” He reaches over and gives you a big hug.

You grin and bear it, but make a point not to hug back. You both stroll into public health and sit through a typically boring lecture. You make it through but you unfortunately picked yourself up more assessment which was well and truly going to be placed on the back burner.

“So what are you doing with the rest of your day? Want to get an early dinner catch up on how uni is going?”

“Yeah early dinner sounds good, I cant be too late though.”

“Easy.”

Both of you head over the the Cafe, you reckon the staff are starting to know you pretty well since you eat there almost all the time. You both sit down and grab a table, ordering something light.

“So first things first, what's got you so busy lately?”

“Well uni assignments, tennis and I've been seeing this new girl lately, I really like her.” You find yourself beaming as you mention Scarlett.

“The redheaded one you said was a bitch back in week one?” He looks at you with a raised eyebrow.

“Haha yeah, she's still got an attitude but I dunno I just really like her. How about you? I'm guessing no since you are still pestering me about cheerleaders?”

“That's so cute and yeah nah got nothing , I don't know how you do it I just don't have the confidence to approach girls. I'm just not all that interesting or good at sports and stuff.”

“Oh come on we aren't throwing a pity party here, you are plenty good at stuff just show them those magic tricks you are good at.”

He rolls his eyes while looking dead at you. “Seriously, oh look at how nerdy I am watch this card trick.”

You get grumpy and grab his face with both hands “We have been over this 100 times, the tricks means nothing, what you are actually doing is showing a girl how talented you are with your hands and fingers. While you are doing it grab one of those snake lollies and tie it in a knot with your tongue, I guarantee if shes not moist after all of that sexual foreshadowing shes a lesbian, and if she is send her my way.”

“Oh fine, maybe I'll try it on this date you get me, also no I wont send any your way you are dating someone right now. I mean that's where you are going after this isn't it.”

You avoid his eye, knowing that it wont matter if you try to lie Andrew will see right through you. “Umm, well, not exactly.”

“Oh my god bitch. Why? You like this girl? Why are you fucking some other slut?”

You are literally speechless but fortunately you look up and see the waitress awkwardly standing there holding two plates. You look at her a nod and she places the plates down and turns and exits the scene quickly, obviously trying to retreat back to a safe distance.

“I'm going to give you until I finish this burger to come up with a good excuse, and don't you even think of trying to run off.”

You both eat in silence. You feel his eyes burning a hole through you and you find it very difficult to think. You've had this conversation with yourself but its different trying to talk to someone else about it. You both finish and he just looks at you, expectantly.

“Look this one I'm seeing tonight she's a bitch that needs to be punished, I cant tell you the full story but trust me you'd agree with me if you knew.” You start out strong but then realise that you shouldn't really tell him that this bitch was blackmailing his current crush for sex.

“Firstly if someone really has done the wrong thing you aren't the police and you should be telling the relevant people not trying to hand out 8 inches of street justice and secondly THIS ONE, how many women are you seeing at the moment.” His voice gets a little too loud and you are positive the waitress is floating around cleaning arbitrarily just so she can hear what's going on.

“Not so loud you idiot, look maybe I do have a bit of a problem when it comes to multiple people but I only like Scarlett the others I just like to fuck. Scarlett's great and everything but I just need to dominate girls, like make them completely subservient, again Scarlett is great but she's never gonna submit like I want need her to, which is great in a relationship but its not gonna satisfy my need to dominate a bitch's mind and body.” The waitress gives away her eavesdropping when her eyes practically bug out of her head as you finish.

“Dominate a bitch's mind and body,” Andrew starts mockingly. “Everyone knows you are a bit of a 'flirt with everyone kinda girl' and we love you for it, but if you are in a relationship with this girl shes definitely not gonna be so understanding if you are fucking around behind her back, even if it is because you need to. You will get caught and it sounds like you really like this girl.”

“Yeah I do, I just don't know what to do cause its like a feeling that comes over me I just need to do it, so I'm not sure I can even stop, you know what I mean?”

“Honestly I have no idea what you mean, you and I are real different when it comes to this, but what I can tell you is you have three options. Don't tell her, keep fucking around and you will definitely get caught and then it's definitely over. Or talk to her about it and maybe something weird happens and shes into that shit or something? Or third, stop being a hoe and settle down.”

You look at him feeling a little dejected with his harsh but probably accurate assessment of the situation. There really only is one option. “You are right, I need to sit down with her and talk about this. I just need to convince her to be my queen and join me in my depraved need to dominate other sluts. Think of how amazing my harem would be if she openly joined me.”

You smile, your imagination now running away. You hear Andrew vaguely saying something about how it will never work in the background but your mind is well and truly focused on the idea of you and Scarlett spit roasting Adelaide.

“Issy, Isabel, earth to Isabella Davis.” You fantasy is interrupted by your very inconsiderate best friend clicking his fingers near your face.

“Hey I was enjoying that.”

“I'm sure you were, you can't actually be serious about telling her can you?”

“Honestly I feel like that my only option. I don't think I could stop even if I wanted to. I just need to fuck bitches.” You say with a smile knowing that you sound like a real frat boy right about now.

He sighs “I guess a good best friend would support you, despite the fact you sound like you have a real issue with sex addiction. Just as long as this doesn't effect you finding me a date.”

“I promise I wont fuck any girl you are dating. However if you stop dating them or you tell me you aren't interested then they are fair game.”

“If that's the best I'll get from you I guess I'll take it. Now it's getting late, you go back to your room and have a good long look at yourself and decide if a life of sexual proclivity is really the right thing to do.”

You get up and smile. “okay, and while you are in your dorm thinking of big words to try to confuse me I'll be fucking the life out of a big titty goth slut. See you later Andrew I'll do my best to get you that date.”

“Okay, that I approve of, see you later Issy.”

You both head off. While he was a bit preachy Andrew was right about one thing. You wanted to have your cake and eat it,
