Bestfriends Shouldn’t Know How You Taste Chapter 92
Ashley‘s pov
ke looked confused, she smiles and her eyes dance with happiness. “It‘s me, Christal. We went to
school together before I moved when we were in sixth grade. I just moved back actually,” sheughs.
ke brows furrowed and his blue eyes scan her form. She dressed pleasant unlike me who still had
sweats and ke‘s huge shirt on.
Then his eyes stopped on her features and his eyes widened in realization. My stomach does
ufortable somersaults and my heart clenches. “Christal White?” He questions with a smile on his
face.

1 swallowed the bitter tang of jealousy. Christal had been in our ss until she moved away in thest
term in sixth grade. She was what you‘d call the perfect girl, polite, beautiful and knew how to get what
she wants. Far from how I am.
And it didn‘te to anyone‘s surprise when ke started to have a crush on her. He‘d blush when
she was around and would stutter when she spoke to him.
He‘d try his best to make her like him back. He would pick his mother‘s flowers, beg his parents for
chocte to give to her. He thought she was his princess. Until she moved and I had to put the pieces
back together. She left him shattered when she moved without saying goodbye. And I was there for him
both Ryan and I. So you can imagine how jealous and angry I felt when he literally said her full name,
smiled at her the way he used to in sixth grade.
He remembered her but not me. I blinked back the familiar sting of iing tears.
She nods, her eyes portraying how happy she felt that ke remembered her. “Yes that‘s me, how‘s
Ryan? Thest time I saw him he had braces on.” Sheughed.
“Did you manage to get his parents to name him Austin instead?” She giggled and then her warm
brown eyes fell on me and she smiled. Her perfect white teeth on disy.
“And is this Ashley? Your messy hair gave it away.” She giggles. 5
I furrowed my brow, reaching up and raked my fingers through my loose curly untamed hair. Was this
meant as an insult?
“Well.”
I cut in, my tone blunt and emotionless. “ke has amnesia so he won‘t be able to answer all your
questions. I‘m surprised he remembers you since you left him without saying goodbye.” 1 Was I acting
like a bitch? Yes. Did I care? Not one bit. Her brown eyes widen and she snaps them to ke who
looks ufortable. “Oh I’m so sorry, how did this happen?”
ke darts his eyes away from her and scratches the back of his head “Rot shot at the back of my
head trying to save attend “lle animits dropping his hands and wraps hin fingers around the coolmetal
of the cant
Her brown eyes sadilen “oh I‘m so sorry this happened to you. I‘m happy you‘re recovering” She asked,
scanning her eyes over his tall muscr form He nods and turns to me and smiles.” Yes I am, Ashley
has been taking good care of me Don‘t know how I would‘ve done it without her.”
Of course my heart melts at his charming smile but vexation still runs in my veins for he remembered
her and not me,
So I send him a barely there smile, one without emotion. His forehead creased in a frown but he
doesn‘t question my now sudden cold mood.
Ice Christal and I watch with satisfaction when her brown eyes drop down to stare at ke‘s hand
more specifically the ring wrapped around his finger: Her eyes widen in shock. “You‘re married!” She
gasps.
Now my lips split into a smile, one so cocky that I was ashamed I was acting this way. I was about to
answer but ke answered before I could He reaches over to grasp my hand that showed off my
wedding ring and lifts it to show it to Christal who looked even more surprised. “Yes I am, apparently I
put a ring on her. You know, iming her before anyone else could.” He joked but there‘s seriousness
hidden in the depths of his voice. 1
I smiled in satisfaction and nearly awed at the way he almost sounded possessive, More and more he‘s
beginning to act like the same ke,
Christal smiles but there‘s no fakeness, nothing portraying that she did not like the news. She was
always perfect, I guess she stayed that way. “I‘m happy for you both, you guys were literally joined by
the hip. I actually shouldn‘t be surprised at all.” She finally says with a twinkle of mirth in her eyes,
“So how long have you been here? Are you staying for long?” It was ke who asked the question. I
nearly grit my teeth. Were they still going to have a conversation while I had food nearly squashing
me?
She lifts her hand to tuck some hair behind her ear and looked at ke shyly, “About a few hours ago.
Actually I‘m now living on my own and I seem to forget a lot of things around here including stuffing my
fridge.” Sheughs and ke joins her. “Join the club, unfortunately I also forgot a lot of things.” He
points at his head and chuckles, squeezing my hand subconsciously.
I honestly had forgotten he was still holding my hand, I was too busy ring a hole in Christal‘s head.
Christalughs. “You remembered me, so I should consider myself special.” She joked. My eyes sting
and I pull my hands out of ke‘s warmrger one. Jealousy coursed through
my veins
She didn‘t know he doesn‘t remember me but I felt like she was pushing my buttons on purpose. But
that was probably me being insecure. I cleared my throat. “Well it was nice talking to you Christal but
we should probably get going. I need to cook dinner and I‘m starving.” If you listened well you could
detect the sour tone in my voice.
If she sensed it or not she didn‘t show. Instead she turns to me and sends me a soft smile. “It was nice
chatting with you two. Hope we could someday catch up since I’m now back in town. You two could
probably show me around again? I kind of forgot the ce.” She giggles.
“Sure we‘ll definitely catch up. See you around.” From my tone you could tell I wanted out of there and
ke definitely got the hint. He smiled at Christal, said bye and rolled the cart away.
“Is that jealousy I sense?” His voice is full of amusement, his breath hitting the back of my neck
I shivered. “Jealousy? Ha now that‘s funny. Why would I be jealous? I‘m not jealous.” I lied through my
teeth.
I hear hisughter and my insides turn to goo.“Yeah sure.
