Note: This story was one for my own enjoyment. It was written in a style I haven't posted yet, but have dabbled with a little by focusing on the romantic side of things a little more.
None of the events in this story actually occurred, but the characters are based off of me and my best friend. This was an experiment to see what it might be like if things were a little different between her and I.
Please let me know what you think. Hope you enjoy!

Middle Eastern Minx:
My best friend's name is Elizabeth. Ever since Middle School we've been the best of friends. We would ride the same bus in the morning and talk all the time. We became very close and shared many memories over the years through middle, high, and then into our first year of college.
Now I know what you're thinking, who was unrequitedly in love with whom? Wasn't like that. Neither of us was into the other. We dated several other people but never each other. Both of us got our hearts broken several times. We really relied on each other to be there through it all.
Well one night I was hanging out in my dorm room. I had two roommates, but both of them were out. Elizabeth was supposed to call me after her classes ended so I was just sitting around waiting for that call.
Suddenly there was a loud pounding on the door. "Dafuq?" I asked myself as I got up. Shirtless, I went to the door and answered it to find Elizabeth who stormed into my room cursing about her current boyfriend who I assumed at this current point was now an ex.
"That fucking dick!" she screamed.
"Hello to you too," I said, knowing she just needed to vent.
"I can't believe him!"
"I can't believe it's not butter."
"How dare he do this after all I gave him!"
"Yeah that unicorn was pretty bomb."
Elizabeth stopped and looked at me. She took a deep breath and then said, "Sorry. Hi."
I moved in and gave her a hug. "It's okay. I'm not sure what happened but I know that we've been through it before."
This was usually when the waterworks started. She held to me tighter and let it all out, right on time. I just decided to keep talking a bit.
"We each have been cheated on and abandoned countless times. People have taken us for granted, used us. But you know what, every time we hurt we always have the other to run to. My arms are always open for you to run into."
Elizabeth sobbed as she said, "I walked in on him with another girl."
"Not the first time that's happened to us," I said.
"This time was worse. That bastard asked me to join! He fucking planned for me to walk in and wanted me to join in and have a threesome with him and that whore!"
"Wow. That's a new one. At least the other guy didn't expect you to walk in on him. Course, he also probably didn't expect his mom to walk in on that freak show either."
That got a laugh out of Elizabeth as she recalled the event. One of her exes had been cheating on her with this really kinky chick who was into bondage and dominating the other guy. Elizabeth had come over to surprise him and his mother answered and decided to lead her to his room, neither thinking anything would be out of the ordinary. However, when they walked in her ex was on his knees on the bed, hands handcuffed behind his back, a ball gag in his mouth, completely naked. Behind him was the girl he was cheating with in a tight leather suit and a whip in her hand. I wish I had been there myself only so I could have seen the look of fear on his face when his mom and Elizabeth walked in on him. Elizabeth had told me that it was priceless and made the shock of it a little easier to deal with.
"That's gotta be the worst way to be caught," I said, chuckling at the idea of it.
"No kidding," Elizabeth said. She had stopped crying and was just holding close to me. I couldn't see her face, but I knew she was smiling based on the way the corner of her lips felt on my bare chest. She was about a good 8 inches shorter than me, so the top of her head came just under my chin.
"Never leave me," she said. It wasn't a demand. It was a scared request.
"I wouldn't ever dream of it."
"You smell like dirty boy."
"Get out of my dorm room."
Again another laugh. She gave me a squeeze and pulled away. This time I could see that smile. "Movie night?" she asked in her nervous way. Around everyone else she was tough and strong. Her confidence wasn't matched. However, whenever she was around just me, she melted into this vulnerable scared little girl. I found it touching. She was like a little sister to me, even though technically she was older by a month.
I looked into her eyes and smiled. "Movie night."
So we curled up on the couch, a blanket over us, and put on a sappy rom com. I admit, I'm quite the sucker for those. I popped us some popcorn. As I waited for it to finish I got a text from one of my roommates saying he wouldn't be back tonight because he was going to a party and would stay there the night. When I sat down next to my best friend I got another text, this time from my other roommate saying that he had a hot date and would be spending the night at her place tonight. This meant the entire dorm room would be just me that night.
Elizabeth and I just sat there on the couch, my arm holding her close to my now fully clothed body. Her silky black hair felt soft against my cheek as we cuddled, fingers interlaced. The movie played but I don't think either of us payed much attention to it. We were mostly focused on each other and feeling each other's embrace.
When the movie ended we just sat there in silence. I started stroking her soft hair, something that helped calm her though I never knew why. For whatever reason it was straight today. Her hair was naturally curly and had the sexiest curl to it. She almost never straightened it unless she was trying to be seductive. For whatever reason she thought she was more seductive when her hair was straight.
"Do you think I'm beautiful?" she asked me after a while.
"Of course I do." How else was I supposed to respond? I don't mean that in the sense that I'm her friend and I'm supposed to say that to her. I mean of course she was beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. I may not have had any romantic interest in her, but that didn't mean that I was unaware of the astounding beauty that was my best friend.
Course, that's not how she saw it. "You have to say that. You're my best friend."
"I'm your best friend, yes. However, you're wrong. As your best friend I am supposed to be honest with you, even if it hurts. Everyone lies and deceives us, but we don't do that to each other. I truly believe that you are one of the most stunning girls I have ever seen."
That earned me a squeeze of endearment. "What about sexy? Do you think I'm sexy?"
"In all honesty, I find you extremely sexy."
Elizabeth pulled away from me enough to be able to look at me. She was giving me an intrigued look. "Really?"
"Yeah," I said. "You've been the focus of many masturbation sessions if that convinces you."
She playfully slapped my shoulder. "Pervert."
"Only thing I'm great at being," I joked.
"That's not true. You're a great musician. You're the best friend anyone can ever ask for. Plus, you're pretty easy on the eyes."
"Well from your point of view I sound pretty amazing. Too bad not many other girls have thought that. Hell, sometimes I wonder if even Nicole thinks of me as highly as you do."
"Nicole is an idiot if she doesn't see how great you are. She's your girlfriend after all."
"Yes, and after three months of dating, two of those having sex, she still has yet to suck my cock. Hasn't even put her lips on it."
