Cheat With My Boyfriend Best Friend

Technically Married

It was a new day, and I went to the laboratory with dark circles under my eyes.

Cinder’s bed was soft, but I spent the whole night tossing and turning, thinking about what she had told me. When I arrived at the lab with coffee in hand and yawning, I saw David already changed into his lab coat and working.

I froze. I didn’t know how to face David after the embarrassing events of last night. I had told him that Aaron and I weren’t a couple. But him knowing that Vincent proposed and seeing me and Aaron walking off together was the most awkward moment of my life.

I was expecting a torturous meeting with David today, but I was just overthinking it. David barely noticed me at all.

He wore a white lab coat with disposable medical gloves and held various reagents in his hands for his experiments. His medium-length hair was tied at the back of his head, and his grey eyes were focused on the test tubes. His seriousness was charming. I’ll give him that. But he wasn’t as funny or as easygoing as he had been last night.

I spent too much time looking at him and then realized what I was doing. Focus, Olive.

“Pass me tube number two.” I yawned and held out my hand.

Nick put a test tube in my hand, and I was about to pour it into a beaker when I saw the bright red color of the tube.

It should’ve been colorless. When I turned it around, the bright red test tube was clearly labeled “No. 35.”

“Nick, this is the wrong…” I turned my head to reprimand my partner, but I made eye contact with him and stopped.

Nick was pale, his eyes were red and swollen, and he looked even more miserable than I did after a night without sleep. He’d definitely been crying all night.

“What’s wrong, Olive?” Nick said quietly. I wiggled the test tube in my hand at him and waited for his answer.
