Accidentally Crushin’ is the story of high school best friends Micah & Derek and what happens when one friend “catches feelings”. This is part 1 of 5. Let us know in the comments if you want more episodes.

The text: I love you g (Read by Derek) 

Micah: 

All I could think was ‘this nigga tweaking’. I wiped the smile off my face as I crossed the street to get on the bus back home. 

It was my best friend’s birthday next week, so I thought I should start off the celebration with giving him his favorite drink, a milkshake. 

We’ve been homies for a while, about a year to be exact. I don’t know exactly how, but we eventually became best friends a few months ago. I mean we tell each other everything. To him, I’m one of the guys, to me he’s like a brother. 

I mean don’t get me wrong. Derrick is fine. I mean 6’8, dark skinned, funny, allat. But that’s just my bro. 

Micah texted him back not long after reading his message. She typed it out as “I love you too g.” But by the time I sent It as “Love you too”. She didn’t want him to read that and feel anything more than what she meant. 

After stopping at her house, Micah headed to a plaza close by to finish Derek’s birthday shopping. She hadn’t gotten him anything and was a little pressed about it. 

Make sure you
