It's been a week since Brad told me he liked me. Nothing really happened besides me giving him my number and sometimes after school we walk home together since he lives near me.

Today is Saturday and I'm planning on sticking to my normal weekend routine, pizza and Netflix! I just got comfy when my phone goes off.

1 message from Brad:
Hey, want to do something with me today?x

1 message to Brad:
Well I was just going to watch Netflix all day so sure!:)

2 messages from Brad:
Alright I'll pick you up in 30 minutes;)

Oh! don't dress too fancy x

Really? I don't think Brad knows anything about girls because he's only giving me a half hour to get ready.

I'm wearing high waisted shorts and an Arctic Monkeys crop top. I decided to straighten my hair also.

Once I finished doing my makeup I heard a knock on my door.

I open the door to see Brad wearing the same shirt as me only I cropped mine.

"TWINZIES" I yell as I walk out the door closing it behind me.

We get into Brads car and he ends up taking us to a place downtown with little shops that always sell cute cheap things.

We're not really talking so I decided to start a conversation.

"You know what really surprised me this year"

"What"?

"The fact your actually showing up to all your classes on time and your getting good grades too"

"Well I remember what you told me that one day in art when you absolutely hated me so now I guess I just transformed myself into not being a total jerk"? Brad said grabbing my hand.

"Wow your not going to pull your hand away"? He asked.

"No" I simply said.

I don't know why but I liked the feeling it gave me when Brad held my hand. I think it might be the feeling of love that I never get because my parents are never home.

We went in a couple of stores and then we decided that we wanted to leave. We were driving for about 10 minutes when I realized he wasn't dropping me off at my house.

"Um Brad where are we going"

"You'll see" he said smiling.

Once we got to where he was brining me I couldn't believe my eyes. He brought me to this clear waterfall with a little pond at the bottom and it looks like no one really knows about the place because it looks like it could be in a movie.

"This is beautiful" I said admiring every little detail about the place.

"It's almost as beautiful as you" Brad said lightly kissing my cheek.

I swear this boy was so charming, no wonder he used to get away with everything.

After I was done admiring everything I looked to Brad who was only in his boxers, and then I knew that waterfall wasn't the only thing I was admiring.

I never knew how much muscle he had. I looked back up at his face to see him smirking.

"Like what you see"

"No it's disgusting" I said smiling

"Whatever" he said jumping into the pond.

"Jump in"

"Brad I don't really feel comfortable with you seeing me in only my bra in underwear"

Then he got out of water and put his face close to mine. I had no idea what he was going to do until he picked me up and threw me into the water.

"Brad"! I laughed and yelled at the same time.

"oops" he said getting back in.

"I hate you sometimes" I said feeling my wet clothes.

"I know you love me" Brad whispered from behind me and made shivers run down my spine.

"Would you stop" I said turning around.

"Stop what"?

"Doing that thing that makes me all, argh, I'm not supposed to like you"!

"Why"? Brad said getting close and looking into my eyes.

"Because I've only been talking to you for like 2 weeks and I barley know you"

"okay, well let me tell you about myself, I live with my mom and dad, they're barley home because of work but I'm okay with that, I have a dog named Jesse, My favourite colour is red and I love music, like a lot."

"now tell me about yourself" Brad said.

"Okay, well um my parents are barley around too, I don't know why, I have no pets so I'm really bored all the time, my favourite colour is mint green and I like to draw, kinda.

"Well that was some good bonding time, now can I please go home? I'm getting cold" I said getting out of the water.

"If you want to" Brad said sighing.

"I had fun today Brad, I really appreciated it" I said getting into his car.

"No problem, your really fun to hang out with".

The rest of the car ride it was pretty silent.

"Thanks again Brad, text me when you get home" I said.

"No problem, and alright"

Once I got into my house I ran right into my room and jumped on my bed.

Telling Brad I didn't like him was the only excuse I had not to actually like him, so now what?

I checked the time and it was already 7:00 pm! Brad dropped me off a while ago and he still hasn't texted me? I wonder if he's alright.

1 message to Brad:
Hey did you make it home alright?

2 messages from Brad:
Oh yeah sorry I was just taking Jesse out for a walk.

Are you doing anything tonight?

1 message to Brad:
No, why?

1 message from Brad:
Good now open your door I'm getting cold ;)

I ran downstairs and opened the door for Brad.

"What are you doing here"?

"You said earlier that you were just going to watch Netflix all day right"? Brad said taking his shoes off.

"Yeah"

"Well that's what we're doing"

For the rest of the night Brad and I watched Netflix and I have to say it was quite comforting having him there with me.

"Okay Brad I'm tired you need to go" I said getting up and stretching

"Alright, alright I'm going" he said hugging me.

He was just about to walk out the door when I stopped him.

"Brad"

"Yes"? he said with hope in his eyes.

"You smell really good" I said laughing.

"Bye Emma" is all he said as he walked to his car.

"See ya" I said closing the door.

I went to bed and realized that Brad is probably as close to me as Caitlyn and Hannah are.

I did not see that coming.

Just thought I'd let you guys know that the picture of Brad is what he was wearing that day!😊
