I had didn't have school today and thought I would update. Welcome to Chapter 13.

Chapter 13 : "You like what you see,"

"What" I say sitting up on my bed. "You heard what I said" He says, rolling his eyes. "I know I just want to make sure I wasn't hearing things" I say rubbing my eyes. "I said I miss you" he turns to face me. The room goes quiet. "Do you um... do you miss me too?" He says, playing with the ring on his finger with his head facing down. "Bradley, are you ok?" I say using my fingers to pick his face up so it faces me. "Can you just answer my question please" He says with an annoyed tone. I lay back down in bed and close my eyes. "Are you just gonna ignore me?" He says annoyed and begins shaking my arm. "I don't wanna fight with you Bradley my head hurts and I just threw up" I say opening my eyes to see his face is just 2 inches from my face. "Are you sick?" he says stroking my face gently. I gently remove his hand from my face. "Sorry" He says quietly. "It's fine It's just..." I trail off. I don't know what the problem was but something was telling me it was better if we were apart. Maybe it was because I didn't want to get hurt by him again or because he said meeting me was his biggest mistake. "What are you thinking about" he snaps me out of my thoughts. I remain quiet thinking of a lie. "If you're thinking about me yelling at you at the gig for eavesdropping I'm sorry" He says softly. Even though it was dark in my room I could feel those brown eyes of his piercing into mine. "No it's not that" I said quietly. "Then what is it?" He says, grabbing my hand. He begins stroking his thumb over it gently and slowly. "Can I ask you a question?" I say sitting back up. "Sure," he says, grabbing my other hand to stroke with his other hand. "Not that I mind but why do keep touching me" I said. " Um....well... maybe because I miss being close to you and since we aren't as close as we used to be I try to get as close as I can to you as possible" He says, continuing to stroke my hands. "I just feel like I messed up everything between us and I can't keep a decent person in my life. I know that you probably hate me but I just wished I could go back in time to that night and said what I really wanted to say. I don't know I just miss us hanging out that's all" He says then exhaling loudly. I didn't know what to say. I still felt like this was a dream or I was hallucinating from my hangover. "What I'm really trying to say is can we call it a truce and maybe if you want to we can be friends again" He says looking up at me. It was dark but I could see hope in his eyes. He was hoping I wouldn't push him away again. I didn't know what to say, everything was happening so fast. "You don't have to answer right away but I just want you to know that I'll always be here waiting" He says getting up. He lightly kisses my hands and gently puts them down. Then he lays me back down in bed and pulls my duvet over me. "Goodnight" he says then places a kiss on my temple. "Good... um.. Goodnight" I stuttered. What is wrong with me? I never stuttered before. "Oh and Ari" he says, holding on to the door knob. "Yes," I said looking at him in the door frame. "Thanks for sticking up for me" He says, flashing me a smile that I can now see since the door to my room is now open. "Your welcome," I say, flashing him a smile back. He then throws me one more warm smile before closing my door. It's been confirmed I'm definitely hallucinating because what just happened.

The next morning my head hurt like hell. It was even worse than yesterday's headache. I pull my duvet from over my head. I turn to see a glass of water and painkillers on my nightstand. "He must have put them there" I smiled to myself. What is wrong with me? I slowly stepped out of bed and headed towards the kitchen. The kitchen was empty and there were 2 notes on the counter.

The first one was from my cousin. "If you're reading this wondering where I am I'm at practice with the boys. Also I'm not coming home tonight so please don't try to kill each other - Love Boss man". The second one was from Brad himself which shocked me. "I left you some water and painkillers which you probably already saw. I made you breakfast and I put it in the microwave. Also If you're still feeling a little sick or under the weather you can borrow one of my hoodies which use to make you feel better". I took the two notes and put them in my room. I heated up the breakfast that Brad had made me. He made me waffles and cinnamon rolls which are my favorite. There was also a small fruit bowl that was made for me in the fridge. I have to give him props because he really was trying but I didn't really know about being friends again. I'm not trying to be mean but I'm just not over everything that's happened. Just for information I'm not talking about what happened 3 years ago, I was talking about the fact that he called me his biggest mistake and the whole yelling thing. I just needed time to think.

After I finished my breakfast I took a shower and decided to clean up the flat. Even though it wasn't messy like it used to be because I was living here It still needed to be clean. After cleaning I decided I would try and finish my application which I haven't got the chance to finish with all this drama going around. I worked on the application for what may have been hours until someone came in. "Hey" a voice behind me says. "Hi" I say, not removing my eyes from my computer. I continued working until a sweaty figure appeared above me. "What are you working on?" He says placing his warm hands on my shoulder. "I'm working" I say, continuing to type on my computer. I was almost done just need to finish up this last part. "What is it that you're working on?" a voice says below me. I look up to see him sitting in between my legs on the floor. His hair was wet from being sweaty and his loose shirt was stuck to his body thanks to his sweat. "What?" He tilts his head. "You like what you see," He laughs. "Don't flatter yourself" I roll my eyes. "Are you going to answer my question?" He says getting up to sit next to me. "I'm working on my UAL application" I say, picking up where I left off. I continue to work but I couldn't focus because I felt like I was being watched. I looked up to see him staring at me. "You like what you see" I mimic him. We both laughed. "Do you know when Tris is coming back because I need him to read my essay before I submit it" I say after we finished laughing. "I can read it for you," He says shyly. "Can you even read?" I joke which causes him to laugh again. "Yes I can" He says putting a hand out. I hand him my laptop. What was the worst that could happen. I watched him read my essay with a smile on his face. "This is great, you just need to make a few changes and your good," He says, handing me back my laptop. He points out the things I need to change and I change them. When we finished I was scared to click submit. I didn't want to get rejected from my dream school. He then grabs my index finger and hits submit. "Bradley Will Simpson, What did you do?" I yell. "I did what needed to be done and don't worry you'll get in" he says getting up. "Whatever. You need to go take a shower your sweaty" I scrunch up my nose. "You can join" He says, flashing me a cheeky grin. I felt my cheeks heat up. I grabbed a pillow and threw it at him. The pillow hits him right in the chest. "You could have said no," He laughs. "Well no and don't let me have to tell you again to go take a shower" I say sternly. "Don't let me have to tell you to join me again" he jokes. He thinks that this is a joke. I grab another pillow and throw it at him. This time it hits him in the face. "Alright I'll go take a shower" he laughs, picking up the pillows and throwing them back at me.

He then disappears into the hallway leaving me on the sofa by myself. I closed my laptop and put it on the seat next to me and turned on the tv. I scroll through the channels hoping to find something until I give up and decide to watch Netflix instead. I was scrolling through Netflix until there was a knock on the door. I wasn't expecting anyone and I don't think Brad was either. "Please don't be Rosie," I said to myself before I opened the door in shock to see the last person I would ever talk to in front of me. "I need your help" .
