"bella wake up!" i feel someone shaking my shoulder.
"bam be quiet," i complain quietly, snuggling back into johnnys chest.
"no wake up!" he says, poking me. i roll over and roll my eyes.
"what do you want?" i say squinting.
"spend the day with me and ryan today!" he says excitedly.
"what are we doing?" i ask.
"stuff. you in?" he asks.
"yeah. let me wake up properly," i say.
"okay me and ryan are gonna shower and stuff. meet in the lobby in an hour?" he suggests.
"works for me," i smile. they both excitedly leave the room and i go to get up, before johnny pulls me back down.
"knox. i need to get up," i say.
"no," he says, just holding me.
"but i'm going out," i whisper into his chest.
"without me?" he says sadly.
"don't be sad. bam invited me. we won't be doing anything exciting - my head still hurts," i explain.
"you shouldn't be doing loads when you're hurting love," he says.
"pj i'm fine. i'll just take the drugs," i say, pushing his hair back.
"i'll talk to bam so he know when you can take them," he says.
"honey. i can read the packet. it's fine," i smile, pushing myself up.
"i'm gonna go get ready - text me if you need me," i smile, picking up the tablets before i leave. i quickly get ready, putting on some light makeup and a comfy but nice outfit. just some baggy jean, a cropped vest and converse before rushing down to the lobby where ryan and bam are waiting.
"hey!" i say coming over.
"hey bella, ready to go?" bam asks.
"yep!" i say popping the 'p'. we go out and hail a taxi.
"what are we doing?" i ask.
"we're going to mine to fuck with phil and so you can meet my mom," bam says.
"awh yay!! i'm so excited to meet april," i smile.
"i love that you already know his parents," ryan laughs.
"oh shush yall," i laugh, laying my head on bams shoulder.
"you okay?" he asks.
"yeah. head just hurts a little," i smile.
"did you take your medicine?" bam asks, pulling out his phone, "knoxville texted me about what and when you can have them."
"i told him it was fine. but yes i did - they just haven't kicked in yet," i smile.
"sooo... you and knoxville?" ryan asks, poking my side.
"oh shush dunn," i complain.
"no we wanna know details," bam says.
"details? there's nothing to tell," i say.
"there can't be nothing to tell. you two have hooked up right?" ryan asks.
"what? no.." i laugh.
"oh. that's a surprise actually," ryan says.
"why?" i ask, i hadn't talked to any of the boys about my budding relationship with knoxville, maybe he had but i don't think he's really a gossip type of guy.
"johnny isn't the type of guy to just be into a girl and not do anything about it. and you two are really close, like really close," ryan says.
"yeah like you two are practically fucking without actually fucking. and he's always flirting with you. and he's super protective of you," bam says.
"yeah. like as friends?" i say, not knowing what to say.
"yeah that's not friends. we fake flirt as friends but you and knox, it's something else," bam says.
"come on bella. we're your besties. you have to tell us," ryan says.
"i don't know what it is okay. like yeah we flirt a lot, and know a lot about each other, and he looks after me and is super protective of me but he like hasn't said anything and i guess i haven't either," i explain.
"i think he likes you, a lot," ryan says.
"i think i like him, a lot," i respond.
"then tell him bella," bam says.
"nope. what if he actually doesn't like me? then we stop being friends, and it makes things weird on set, so i get fired, and all of you hate me," i spiral.
"bella none of that would happen," bam says.
"yeah. and he does like you. absolutely he does. he doesn't just act like this for anyone," ryan says.
"whatever. anyway. how exactly are we fucking with phil today," i say changing the subject.
"oh well we're gonna fuck with his chair, and dig a big pit so he falls in it while he's mowing the lawn," bam says excitedly.
"sounds great hun," i laugh. we arrive at bams and phil and april are both working. bam says april will be home around 12 and phil will be home around 4. we, and by we i mean bam, ryan and their friend raab himself, start to dig the hole in the garden while i film. bam sees april pull up and drags me inside so we can meet.
"bam wash your hands. you're covered in mud," i say.
"nope come say hi," he says. april comes in and greets bam near the door while bam drags her to the kitchen.
"and mom. this is arabella. but don't call her that you can call her bella or bell or AB or any nickname except bells," bam says.
"hi april. it's so nice to meet you!" i smile, holding my hand out.
"hello love. bams told me so much about you," she smiles, pulling me into a hug. i hug her back gently.
"awh has he?" i smile at him. she lets me go.
"ape, we're doing some stuff in the back yard," bam says going to drag me out.
"i'm sorry," i say, letting bam drag me out. they continue to dig when april comes out. i pick up the camera and film her and bam.
"bam! what are you doing?" she complains.
"digging a hole. so when phil mows the lawn he'll fall in it," bam smiles.
"you're ruining my garden," she says sadly.
"no mom. we saved all the good grass well put it back on top," he says.
"bam you have to promise me you're going to fix this. promise me, that you will fill this hole back in and not by ryan or chris," she says.
"i promise to fill this hole back in and not by ryan or raab himself," bam smiles. they continue to dig for about an hour until the hole is pretty deep, during that time bam asked me to collect some big branches and rake up some leaves. after that we go inside to wait for phil to get home.
