Bronnor (One Shots)

The List of Broken Items by The Vamps

So this one shot is inspired by that time when Brad broke the ceiling and almost kills everyone. There's a video attached to the top/side so you can watch it and see what this is gonna be like.

They were just playing, it was just a game between The Vamps and The Tide. It was a game they invented, but they never imagined that a simple game could hurt anyone.

They were all playing inside, they kicked the ball, they did tricks with it until it followed its way to Brad, who reacted immediately and kicked the ball causing it to hit the ceiling and in that moment, the ceiling cracked on one side and made a weird noise, causing Brad to move away from where he was. A piece of the celing fell instantly, the others moved away, but it was too late for Connor to react and it hit him in the head so hard that he fell to the ground unconscious. Brad, along with the others, ran to help Connor. Brad wanted to lift Connor up, but was not allowed to do it as his friend's head was hit. Brad was in shock, he didn't know what to do or how could he help.

Joe took Connor to the hospital accompanied by the one who caused the accident. While they were waiting for news, Joe was nagging Brad.

"I understand that you have so much energy, Brad, but see what that has caused."

"But I..."

"I know it was your idea, now see what it's caused. I don't mind you guys having fun and you know that, but understand that you can't be playing inside all the time. You're always breaking something, you've broken tables, doors, fans, you've already broken a tv. People have complained that you're always breaking something. You can't go around breaking things for free, Brad."

"I'm sorry. I apologise for that, but this is something you should tell everyone, not just me."

"Keep in mind I'm gonna talk to them and it's not just me I'm going to talk to you, your parents are going to talk to you."

"What?"

"I've called your parents, they're going to talk to you, too."

"Does Kelly know Connor is hurt?"

"Of course she does, did you think I wasn't going to call his family? Connor's hurt."

"I'm sorry."

"Tell Connor that once we can see him."

After a long wait, Connor regained consciousness and Joe went in to talk to him. That talk took about ten minutes, Joe told him that his family is aware of the situation, as well as letting him know what he talked about to Brad.

"Brad's here?"

"Yeah."

"Can you tell him to come over?"

"Sure.

Joe went out to find Brad, but he was already gone. He took the chance to run away when Joe entered into the room to check on Connor. Joe had another problem: a missing boy, so he tried calling him, but he never picked up the calls, so he called Dean and asked him to go to the hospital to watch over Connor whilst he looked for Brad. Unfortunately, Joe couldn't find him. Brad was gone and he didn't know where to look for him. Joe called Brad's family to let them know what happened. Anne-Marie called Brad to talk to him, she helped him to face the consequences of his actions which made Brad get out from where he was hiding to perform the scheduled show.

Connor was getting better. The head injury was not severe, but he wouldn't be able to perform with his bandmates.

After the show, Brad went to where Connor was resting to talk to him. He was resting on a couch, head down on a pillow as he watched the telly.

"Hey, B." Connor said as he tried to get up from the couch he was lying on.

"Don't get up, I'll come over." Brad sat on the floor, his legs pressed against his chest, his chin on his knees, and his arms wrapped around both legs.

None of them said a single word, but Connor waited for his friend to be ready to speak up. Deep inside, Connor knew his friend wanted to talk about the incident.

"I'm sorry, Con." Brad spoke up between sobs.

"Are you crying? What is it mate?"

"You. It's my fault you're hurt, I shouldn't have..."

"It was everybody's idea to play with the ball. It wasn't your fault."

"Yes it was. I saw when the ceiling broke."

"Brad, don't apologise to me. You don't have to. It wasn't your fault." Connor said as he placed his hand on Brad's back, which made his friend shift his position and look him straight in the eye.

"Because of me you got hurt."

"Mate, don't cry."

"I promise I won't make you guys do what you don't want to do, I'll save my energy for the shows and not put your lives at risk."

"You don't have to, Brad. That's who you are and I don't want you to stop being who you are because of an accident. I would never ask you to stop being you."

"But because of who I am, you got hurt."

"Don't apologise to me, don't blame yourself. The crazy things we have all done are thanks to you. Bear in mind that you brighten people's lives, you make people happy even if it's just for a moment. Don't change that. If anything, I should apologise to you because you want to stop being who you are because of me. Forget what Joe said to you. What he said to you, he said it to everyone. He even scolded Dean for letting us play. Don't blame yourself. Now, can we talk about something else?"

"About what?

"That you broke the ceiling. We can now add that to the list of things we've broken and show it to Joe to annoy him. You know what? I'm not surprised. We always break something. I knew we were going to break something, but I never thought you'd break the ceiling."

"I'll add it to the list, believe me."

"Write it down then." Connor pulled a small notebook out of his back pocket and handed it to Brad who wrote: I broke the ceiling.

Every time they break something, whoever broke it, is the one who has to write it down. Brad has broken his own record. Actullay, someone has to break Brad's new record. Who's it gonna be? Who knows? It doesn't matter. They'll go around breaking things and Joe will take care of it like he's done every time they break anything.
