Changes

Chapter 5 - What's happening to me

So I had a phone call from Brad this morning. He said he wanted me to met his band members. What he was in a band and he never told me? How did he ever get my number and not text me he has it?

Well I didn't pay much attention but I probably should as people tell me I have to be more happy. Am i miserable all the time?

I threw my black high waisted jeans on and a baggy grey jumper on. Slipped my feet into my favourite white converse and covered my face in my normal makeup.

I thought I should make a bit of an effort as I was meeting new people. But why was I doing it for Brad? He probably hates me as I've been so blunt to him.

I was walking down Brad's drive when I had these shivers go through me. I tried and snapped out of them but I don't know what was going through me. I never had this before.

I knocked on his door when my hand went cold. I felt like I was going to faint because I was nervous. Was it meeting new people? But I meet new people all the time?

Brad opened the door and had the biggest smile ever. I smiled back as he said "Come in"

Wow.
Hang on.
Me smiling.
You having some kind of laugh.
I actually smiled for the first time in about 8 years.

Brad made a comment as I walked in "Ooo nice to see new?, it's not like you to smile"

I smirked.

Wait.
Smirked.
Haven't done that either.
What's going on with me.

I was taking my coat off when I hit my hand against Brad's hand.

He gasped "Wow, you're freezing, are you okay?"

Before I could reply he held my hand in his hands and warmed them up.

I hate people touching me. Why was I letting Brad have my hand. I thought I didn't even like him.

All of a sudden I heard a voice saying "are you coming down or what?"

Then I realised Brad and I were hugging. Why? What? How?

I realised my arms and pulled away.

Brad then said 'Megan this is Tristan, Tristan, Megan"

We both said hello then went down to the basement to meet the others.

When we got down there Brad introduced me to Connor the Bassist, James the guitarist and backing vocals, Tristan the drummer and then Tristan's girlfriend Eva. James' girlfriend Danielle and then Connor's girlfriend Katie. I talked to everyone and they told me what they did.

Then Danielle asked "Hey, Megan has Brad invited you about a party tomorrow night?"

I just looked at Brad awkwardly.

Then Eva said "Megan, you should come with us and the boys. If you come over mine we can all get ready then meet the boys?"

I just smiled and nodded.

I thought this would be nice, they all seem lovely and I've always wanted to go to parties but I was never invited. So I was excited for the first time in forever.

But they all have girlfriends and then there's just Brad and me. What am I going to do?
