Bradley

I was looking out of the window when I suddenly heard Ellie's giggle.

" And did you two enjoy your free time ?" James asked her and chuckled whereupon Ellie blushed.

" Where's Connor ? And where is Rose ? " I asked Ellie, but my question was just responded by Connor who came to our table.

" Rose and Nathan won't join us today. They prefer to have dinner at some other place. Bradley, what have you actually done that Nathan has such a horrible mood? " Connor said.

" Uhm nothing ?! What should I have done ? " I responded annoyed and looked around the dining room.

I felt that someone was watching me. But I don't know who. I was checking the whole room when I caught Rose's eye. She was with Nathan in the lobby and Nathan was talking to her but she kept looking at me.

I smiled at her and waved then at her which made her smile even more.

I wanted to stand up and go to her and tell her that she should have dinner here.

But somehow Nathan must have noticed that Rose and me were starring at each other , when he suddenly leaned in and kissed Rose.

Immediately I looked away and decided not to look at Rose again.
" Brad! You okay ? Won't you eat anything for dinner ? " Ellie asked me and I shook my head.

" What a pity that Rose isn't here 'cause she would have eaten the whole buffet ! Maybe you would have eaten then "

" But Rose is not here and she can do whatever she wants. She's not my life. " I said angrily.

A waiter walked to our table and asked for our drinks.

" For me the strongest whiskey you have , please " I told him annoyed and everyone at my table looked at me.

" Duh ! It's my life ! And if I want to get drunk that's my problem, okay ?! I have my reasons to drink alcohol. . . " I explained them annoyed and the waiter walked away to bring our drinks.

" You can get drunk but I'm sharing a room with you and I'm not in the mood of being the whole night awake, because you are crying and throwing up! This time it's enough ! " James said angrily and I got so angry that I banged my fist on the table and got up from my chair.

" You don't understand me and you never will ! Nobody ever will ! I fucked up and I'm a miserable person. " I shouted and left then the dining room. The whole room was watching me now, but I didn't give a fuck.

I crossed the lobby and went out of the hotel to light a cigarette.

I closed my eyes and inhaled the smoke. I fucked up so much with my life. I promised my mum that I would never smoke and what was I doing now ? I was smoking.

I promised my dad that I would be a strong man who wouldn't drink alcohol whenever he has a problem and I promised him that I wouldn't be that kind of man who fucks every woman who crosses his way. Well, I was this shit now.

I took a drag and hoped that I would relax, but nah. I heard Rose's giggling and my hands started to get sweaty.

" Why do we have to wait for a taxi ? Taxis are so expensive! Let's do something for our health! Let us walk to that Japanese restaurant ! " Rose said highly motivated to do some sport. Wow. That's new to me.

" You don't want to walk for half an hour to the restaurant. If we do, you will moan and say ' Ahh Nathan stoooop! My feet! My legs! My shoes ! My poor shoes !' " Nathan said and then they chuckled.
