Love Captured on a Rooftop

~ Bradley Simpson ~

As Bradley led me by the hand, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement tingling in my veins. Today marked our one-year anniversary, and he had promised me a surprise that I was eagerly anticipating. Bradley had a way of making me feel special, and his endearing nicknames for me melted my heart every time. I couldn't wait to see what he had planned for us.

We arrived at our destination, a familiar rooftop where we had first met. It held a significant place in our hearts, as it was where The Vamps, Bradley's band, had celebrated the success of their sold-out first tour. I had been there as their concert photographer, capturing their incredible journey.

Standing on that rooftop again, memories flooded my mind. I turned to Bradley, a smile playing on my lips. "So, what's the surprise, Bradley?" I asked, my voice filled with anticipation.

He grinned mischievously, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Close your eyes, Addy, and trust me."

I followed his instructions, closing my eyes tightly. I could hear him moving around, the sound of his footsteps and the soft rustling of objects. My heart pounded with curiosity and wonder as I imagined what awaited me.

"All right, you can open your eyes now," Bradley said softly.

As I opened my eyes, my breath caught in my throat. The rooftop had been transformed into a romantic haven. It was adorned with a sea of roses and flickering tealight candles, casting a warm and intimate glow. A blanket was spread out on the floor, adorned with plush pillows and soft blankets. The air was filled with the aroma of our favorite foods, and a bottle of chilled champagne stood elegantly on a nearby table.

I stood there, completely speechless, as Bradley looked at me, a mixture of excitement and adoration in his eyes. "Happy anniversary, Addy," he whispered, his voice filled with love.

Tears welled up in my eyes as I stepped forward and enveloped him in a tight embrace. "Oh, Bradley, this is... beyond anything I could have imagined. It's perfect," I whispered, my voice quivering with emotion.

He held me close, his arms wrapped around me protectively. "You deserve nothing but the best, my love. I wanted to create a magical moment for us."

We settled down on the cozy blanket, indulging in the delicious food Bradley had prepared for us. Each bite was savored, the flavors dancing on our tongues, as we laughed and shared stories of our journey together.

As we finished our meal, Bradley reached into his bag and pulled out his beloved Canon camera. "I want to capture these beautiful moments with you, Addy," he said, his voice filled with affection.

I blushed, feeling a wave of love wash over me. Bradley began taking photos of me, his lens capturing my smiles, my laughter, and the love shining in my eyes. Each click of the camera felt like a tender declaration of our love, freezing those precious moments in time.

And then, just as I thought the surprise couldn't get any better, a familiar melody filled the air. I turned around, my eyes widening in astonishment. Conor on bass, James with his guitar, and Tristan seated behind the drums. They had joined Bradley on the rooftop, ready to serenade us.

They started playing an acoustic version of their song "Lovestruck," their voices harmonizing perfectly. The music wrapped around us, adding an enchanting soundtrack to our anniversary celebration. My heart swelled with joy as Bradley sang, pouring his soul into every word.

When the song ended, Conor, James, and Tristan approached us with warm smiles, enveloping me in a group hug. "Happy anniversary, Addy!" they chorused, their voices filled with genuine affection. The boys made their way down the staircase and left Bradley and I in each other's company.

Overwhelmed with love and gratitude, I cuddled up to Bradley on the rooftop, surrounded by pillows and blankets. We looked up at the starry night sky, feeling the gentle breeze caress our faces.

"This has been the most incredible day, Bradley," I murmured, resting my head on his chest.

He kissed the top of my head and whispered, "Every day with you is a gift, Addy. I'm grateful for your love and for this beautiful year we've shared."

As we lay there, hand in hand, gazing at the twinkling stars, I knew that Bradley was my forever, and our love would continue to grow and shine, just like the stars above us.
