“No,” I argued. “Not until you forgive me.”
She screamed, drawing back far enough that I had to grip her wrists.
“Stop screaming,” I ordered, shaking my head.
“Then let go of me!” she countered through gritted teeth near my face.
“Are you going to forgive me?” I asked, not backing down.
“Absolutely not.”
“You’re such a stubborn little thing.” I jerked her forward, closer to my face and she lost her footing.
She wouldn’t stop fighting while I just held on to her, barely breaking a sweat or using any of my strength. She knew her efforts wouldn’t matter. She would never be able to overpower me and get away. I was bigger, and she wasn’t going anywhere unless I wanted her to. I knew that pissed her off more than anything.
“Stop being such a girl,” I simply stated.
Her eyes widened, loudly gasping. “Oh my God! Let go! Let go of me right now!”
“Fine!” I released her, and she stumbled back, glaring right at me. I’d never seen her so mad.
“You’re an asshole!”
“Enough with the attitude. I’m sorry, but there’s no way I’d ever let anything happen to you, and you know that.”
And then she pushed me, like full-on shoved me, and I barely wavered, which only infuriated her to push me again. My eyes widened, surprised and partly amused with her feisty spirit that always did things to me.
I did the only thing I could think of. Acting on pure impulse, I tackled her to the soft grass. Laying my body on top of hers, I held her in place beneath me.
“Do you need a hug? Is that what this is about?” I teased in a high-pitched voice, holding her tighter.
“Oh my God, Ethan! This is cheating!”
I didn’t hesitate, reaching down to grip her inner thigh, and she immediately lost her shit. Laughing and thrashing all around, she whipped her body, trying to break free from my relentless torture.
“See…” I smiled. “All you needed was some of my love.”
We’d been saying we loved each other for as long as I could remember. Again, I thought it was normal. You’re supposed to love your best friend regardless of them being a girl.
“Are you done now?” I tickled her other thigh.
“Stop!” She laughed out, trying to catch her breath.
“Say the magic words, and I will.”
“I hate you!” She laughed harder.
“Now you’re going to have to apologize too.”
“You’re horrible!”
“And you love me for it.”
“Ethan, you’re shameless!”
“Say you’re sorry, and you didn’t mean it!”
“Never!”
