The Best Man novel Chapter 66

"You're already strategizing the murder, that's never a good sign", I said, and I think that's when she actually thought about it, slowly withdrawing her incoming protest

"Yeah, I guess you're right", she laughed. "But I really need to start watching that show more now to be honest"

"Are you serious?"

"It's not like I'm not not kidding"

I heaved a sigh while facepalming and she laughed, nudging with her elbow

"Okay I'm kidding", she popped another chip into her mouth. "Want to watch a movie instead?"

"I have a better idea"

"What?"

I took a weed packet out of my pocket and showed it to her, grinning ear to ear and a smile appeared on her face

"What? No", she exclaimed, and I wiggled his eyebrows at her.

"Let's get lit baby"

"No we can't smoke that", she sat up on the couch, looking uncertain all of a sudden

"Why not?"

"There are like smoke detectors in here and stuff. Where did you even get this?"

"Kevin gave it to me at the game"

"Should have known", she shook her head. "You know what, I have a better idea"

She pulled me up on my feet to the kitchen, taking out the baking essentials out of the cabinets

"I like the way you think", I pulled my weight up to sit on the counter. "-even though it's going to fuck up even more now that we're going to ingest it"

"Are you scared?", she challenged and I smirked

"Absolutely not", I flexed my muscles. "I fear nothing"

"Alright tough guy, let's bake some brownies"

Olivia's POV

After baking the brownies, we both ate two at the begining, but then they ended up being so good, we took some more, almost leaving none and that's how our night actually started...from there on it was just crazy and hectic

"I look ridiculous", he complained, taking his phone out to look at his reflection on the screen

"You do know we're literally standing in front of a mirror, right?"

"Mirrors are deceiving. I trust my phone to be brutally honest with me", he said, and I laughed at how accurate that sounded. "You know how you can look at yourself in the mirror and think damn, don't I look good today? And take out your phone to take bomb selfies and all the pictures come out like, you really shouldn't have been that confident, and you end up deleting all of them because they turned out ugly as fuck?"

I laughed so hard I was holding onto the basin for balance." That's really sad, but relatable"

When I looked back up, I noticed he was holding the camera up at me, with a smile on his face

"Are you recording this?", I asked, already shielding my face from him, and he kept peeling them off every time

"I want to remember this", he followed my face with the camera as I tried hiding from him, unable to help myself from smiling

"Why?"

"This is when I realized that you actually had me wrapped around your little finger for me to agree to put this on my face", he turned the camera to him, running his hand through his hair

"Nathan if you're watching this, I'm telling you right now that you're a goner man. This girl right here, will be the death of you one day, but it's all worth it because you're so in love with her"

"Also Liv if you're watching this, this is a daily reminder that this is the one you're not letting get away because he's the best you've ever had", I chipped in, standing close to him so that we both in the video and I saw his face soften a little as he looked at me
