Would you?- Tradley One Shots

Birthday cake 🎂

A little something that popped into my head when I heard this song. Enjoy!

Brad's POV

'Are you okay?' I asked quietly as I laid my arm around Tristan's shoulders

'N-not really, but I'm better now that you're with me' he replied between sobs

'I meant now, not overall... your hand was bleeding' I said quietly as I ran my finger down his bandaged hand

'Yeah, it doesn't hurt' he mumbled as he snuggled his head into my chest

'Okay' I whispered as I pulled him in even closer

He then broke down. He was shaking violently in my arms as he sobbed. I held him as tightly as I could, trying to be soothing. I didn't last long though. I tried to be quiet, as tears streamed down my face. I was heart broken too.

'Why did this happen?' He cried

'I don't know, sweetie... I truly don't know' I said sadly

'I wish that saying that everything happens for a reason made you feel better, but I know this only angers you... it angers me as well' I said heavily

'I just can't believe this... the worst part is forgetting that she's gone... like I'd pick up my phone and want to call her and then everything comes crashing down' he sobbed even harder than I thought was possible

'I can only imagine, love' I said softly as I tried to wipe my tears without him noticing

'What do you need? You want to get drunk, cry, eat junk food, watch something, go out? Tell me and I'm there' I said as I started wiping his tears away

'I just need you' he said shakily

'Well, I'm not going anywhere' I said with a small smile

He smiled faintly at me

'Let's get you into something more comfortable and let's just cuddle. Sounds good?' I asked as I helped him up

He nodded softly

I pulled him behind me, up to his bedroom. I sat him on the bed and undressed him. I took off his suit and folded it nicely. I then took out a pair of his favorite sweatpants and his favorite sweater.

When he was anxious or overwhelmed, he liked to drown in his clothes. He felt like that made him disappear.

'Thank you' he whispered gratefully

'No worries' I said a tad tiredly

'You should change as well... take anything you want' he said as he took me in and realized that I was also in a suit

'I'm alright' I said softly as I caressed his cheek

'Don't be stupid. You're uncomfortable. We both know you hate being in uptight clothes' he said heavily

I gave him a stern look, but he matched it.

'Just change' he sighed

'Okay, okay. I'm changing' I said softly as I began taking my suit off

What surprised me was that Tris got up and began helping me.

'What are you doing?' I asked surprised

'Your hands are shaking' he replied as he put his hand over mine to calm me down

'Let me help you' he added as he began untying my tie and unbuttoning my shirt

'I'm the one that should be helping you' I said shakily

'We take care of each other' he said after a moment
