Everything Happens For a Reason (Bradley Simpson)

Breaking Moment

The two weeks have flown by. It was the day I was flying to Houston. I had occasionally talked to Brad but he was really busy with the tour and all. I was really excited to see him. I missed him so much. My dad and I were driving to the airport. I was happy to be back with my friends, but I'm going to miss my dad. These past two weeks my dad and I have been bonding a lot! Surprisingly he was so happy that I was pregnant. I've also come to be very fond of the idea. I couldn't do anything about it, I was not giving my baby up for adoption, much less an abortion. This was my responsively now, whether Brad stuck around or not. I really hoped he would though. I could just picture it now. Our little family. It made me smile.
I was interrupted out of my fantasy as my dad spoke up
"We are here" he says smiling.
I smile and lean over and give him a hug.
"Thank you for these past weeks.. Ive missed you and this was definitely good for me!" I smile pulling out of the hug.
He nods "no problem kiddo... You take care of yourself... And your little peanut." He smiles.
I laugh and nod. "I will dad.. I'll call you when I land." I say stepping out of the car grabbing my suitcase.
I wave him off and walk inside with my ticket and passport. I was on the way to
meet my favorite people. But I was really nervous to tell him.
I was waiting for my flight to be called and decided to grab a cup of coffee.
As I was walking away I noticed Brad on a magazine from the corner of my eye. I walked over and picked it up. I looked at the cover and widened my eyes at the cover. It was a picture of Brad and Lauren looking very friendly. She was on stage with him and there noses where just about touching.
I bit my lip as I read the headline
"Brad Simpson interested in Fifth Harmony's Lauren Jauregui."
I shake my head. It was just a rumor.. There was nothing going on... The picture must have been taken at the right moment. Brad and I have been talking these two weeks.. Nothing's going on I assured myself. I put down the magazine and my flight got called and I rushed to the terminal.
The plane ride was about 3 hours. My legs were asleep by the time we arrived. Caitlin had agreed to pick me up, as Brad wasn't for sure the actual day I was coming back, I wanted to surprise him.
I walked out of baggage claim and smiled wide when I saw Caitlin. I ran over to her and hugged her tight.
"Oh my god!! I missed you!!" I squeal and let go
She laughs "I missed you too!!! How are you?" She asks
I nod "I'm good... I'm good.. I just miss Brad a lot!" I say fiddling with the strap of my bag. She rolls her eyes
"We'll come on! Let's go see him" she laughs leading me to the rental car.
Texas was a very different place from New York and Birmingham.. It was so like family oriented... I loved it!
We soon arrive to what I'm assuming was today's venue. I smile as I see the boys tour bus.
I put my bag inside there and exchange hellos with the boys, mace and Jess and some long needed hugs.
I look around
"Where's Brad??" I ask impatiently
"He went inside earlier to get some
Food" Connor says pointing to the venue.
I nod "Thanks!!"
I say rushing out the bus leading to the back doors of the venue. I walk inside and slip the pass around my neck so people don't assume I'm a fan.
I look around and can't seem to find Brad anywhere. Where the hell could he have been.
I sigh before giving up and I hear his laugh. It was coming from the arena. I walk over into the entrance and walk in. I find Brad and to my surprise Lauren sitting beside him in one of the rows of seats, they were laughing and talking... Or my definition. Flirting.
I start to get angry inside. But slowly calm myself down not wanting to stress myself out. I walk in more my heels clanking against the floor. I walk closer and clear my throat.
Brad looks up and smiles "hey Syd!!" He says standing up walking over to me.
Lauren smirks to herself and walks behind him.
"I better go.." She smiles at me and walks off. I could not stand her.
I look down and Brad comes over and wraps his arms around me. I don't hug back and stay with my arms crossed.
He pulls back with a confused face.
"What's wrong babe??" He asks.
I roll my eyes
"Is there something going on with you and Lauren?" I ask cutting straight to the point.
He widens his eyes and scoffs
"Really?" He asks
I nod "yeah really!" I reply sarcastically.
"No there's not Sydney! We are just friends!" He says grabbing my hand.
I laugh with no humor.
"Well that's not the image I'm receiving from magazines and what I just saw..." I say pushing his hand away.
"Sydney your over reading this.. There's nothing going on?? The only person I'm into is you!" He says narrowing his eyes at me.
I sigh. "Look I just wanted to come home and have a cute little reunion but she was here and ruined it." I say rolling my eyes. I tried to calm down so I could tell him.
"Are you seriously jealous?" He asks?
"Brad" I start.
"No! Tell me, what are you so worried about?" He asks.
I shake my head.
"Bra-"
"Tell me Sydney.. What is going on?" He asks yelling at me. I couldn't take it anymore. I needed to tell him so maybe he would get off my case.
I shake my head tears starting to form
"BRAD..." I yell
He looks at me with fully alert
"I'm pregnant..." I whisper. Scared to death how he would react.
