Friends Like This

"I'm not sure it's a good idea to fall for your best friend."No one told me that junior year is when everything would get complicated. At the heart of the complexities? My best friend, Aaron freaking Cooper-more specifically, my relationship with him. Whether I should have a relationship with him that's more than friendship. Whether I already do.Everyone else in our lives seems to think there's something between Aaron and me--that we're denying it and lying to ourselves--even my boyfriend and his girlfriend.No matter what we tell them or our friends, it doesn't change what they see.But as the lines start to blur between friendship and more, I find myself thinking that everyone else might be right.Then again, maybe it doesn't matter. Because I'm not sure it's a good idea to fall for your best friend. But I'm not sure it's a choice, either. Which leaves me wondering if Aaron and I have ever been just friends, or if we've always been something more. And if we are, is it finally time to risk everything and do something about it?I have no idea.And that's the problem.
