My Best Friend's a Wingman

Please Subscribe to read further chapters

Description

There are 3 important things you should know about Skylar.
 One, she likes Sehun ever since freshman year.
 Two, Kai is her best friend since forever.
 Three, it’s not ideal to ask Kai to be your wingman, but because Skylar is desperate, she asks him anyway.

 

 

 

 

 

Foreword

p r e v i e w / s n i p p e t

“You wanted brutal honesty. I'm giving you brutal honesty. Guys are simple-minded. They see cleavage and they're wagging their tails left and right.”

“Prick,” I mutter. “Don't make me regret asking for your judgment. What else?”

Kai scans me up and down, eyes like a hawk hunting for its prey. “Your lips.” Um. Okay? What's wrong with my lips? I send him a confused look and he appears simultaneously taken aback and insulted that I have no clue. “Why are they chapped all the time? It's like a guys repellent.”

I move my hand to smack him but he blocks my hit. “God I really hate you right now,” I groan.

“Trust me, having sisters I notice all the important details.”

Though annoyed, I can't believe I'm considering all of his so-called advice right now. “So what should I do?”

He claps his hands together as if he's a coach guiding his player to the right track. “S.B.H.T.”

“Come again?”

“Lip Scrub, lip Balm, Hydrate—as in drink your water—then, lip Tint.”

“You seem proud to know this grooming technique.”

“Minus the tint, why do you think girls can't resist these lips?” He winks, causing me to roll my eyes even harder.

“Gross. Please spare me the gory details.”

 

 

 

 

 

A Modern Century Play: GIVE ME A CHANCE

location: asianfanfic foreword box

description: A long time ago, in a foreword box, comes a skeptical reader and a persistent author whose one pitiful, sad wish in life is for new readers to give her story a chance.

 

you, a skeptical reader: (randomly stumbles upon this story, scoffs at the cliche title and description) why should i bother reading this story?

me, the persistent author: HELLO. I'M GLAD YOU ASKED. DO YOU WANT TO WITNESS GREAT BANTER AND GREAT CHEMISTRY BETWEEN TWO GREAT MAIN CHARACTERS?

me: does the thought of swimmer!kai make your heart skip a beat???

me: are you tired of unlikeable but somehow too perfect original character???

you:

me: DO YOU LIKE BEST FRIENDS TO LOVERS STORIES?

you: . . . well, yes? but all of them is the same. girl's secretly in love with guy best friend. girl confesses to her guy best frie--

me: no!!! this is different, i swear you!!! skylar isn't in love with kai yet. I REPEAT. SKYLAR ISN'T IN LOVE WITH KAI. in fact, she wants him to help her with bae sehun. that's pretty different, eh? (wiggles brows at cha)

you: wait, so then how does skylar catch feelings for kai??

me: if you want to know... you should read to find out (points two index fingers as playful finger guns)

you: ugh, why is this 'Subscribers Only'?? that means i have to subscribe to read. no thanks.

me: how about this? try reading four chapters in and if you're not hooked yet, you're free to UNSUBSCRIBE and think that i at writing!!

you: fair enough... but what if i do like it?

me:

you:

me:

you:

me: see, i didn't expect that... well, (slides you a twenty dollar bill across the table) subscribe?? upvote?? leave your thoughts through the comments?? (looks at you with pleading eyes)

you: and...why did you write this fake script and dialogue of us two just to convince me to read my best friend's a wingman?

me: (sweats nervously) i have too much time on my hands

Chapter 32: Thank you for creating a story that i can come back to relive this experience with Skailar. It help me to go through tough times in my life. Though i am happy to see the happy ending you have envision and it feels like a fairytale.

Hope you are happy with where you are now!

Chapter 32: I'm a very picky person when it comes to fanfictions on asianfanfics because of how vast this whole website is. (I think the fact that the featured section goes on for 22 or so pages says enough to prove my point.)

Descriptions need to be intriguing, characters have to be somewhat familiar and the writing needs to have the sort of charm that just can't be described by a reader or anyone for that matter. This book had all of this and more (plus the enthusiasm that I love, love seeing in authors).

It's almost 2 o'clock in the morning but I sit here writing this comment because this story has been one of the most descriptive stories I've ever come across that has actually managed to hold my interest for the sometimes intimidating length of 28 chapters.

(It also happens to be the first slow burn book that I've actually adored to what looks like no end. I usually opt for more quicker paced stories or stories where the attraction is almost oozing out from the very beginning because I'm just impatient when it comes to literature and the genre of romance.)

I get what it's like to no longer be as passionate about a project as you used to be, so even though I am upset I won't be able to read more Skailar, I completely understand why this story ended or rather I guess, didn't end the way it did.

In the end, I just wanted to say that I absolutely loved this story and the dynamics and the characters. This story has so much depth to it and I don't even know what to say so I'll just end it here.

Thank you so much for leaving this up here, and all the best for your future writing or whatever you end up doing!

Chapter 32: Well, I can't lie and say I don't feel disappointed that this story won't be finish. But I fully understand your reason and I really hope that you will find that spark again in writing stories. Thank you for this wonderful story. You are a good writer and you should be proud of your talent and gift. And I'm sure I'm going to miss Kai's terrible puns XD I hope in whatever you do, you will feel and bless everyday!
