The Beckham Game (Brooklyn Beckham FanFic)

Stares

I woke up at 11 and realized that I had to be at starbucks in an hour. Shit. I was always running late. I grabbed a cropped white top and put on high waisted denim shorts with my mint green converse. I brushed my hair and my teeth and ran out of the house, dropping my phone.

"Here" Brooklyn handed me the phone. He opened the door.
"So uh.. where are you going?" he asked.

"Out" I answered, harshly, as I ran down the driveway. Maybe I shouldn't have been so rude. But he broke my fucking heart!

I basically ran the whole way to starbucks before arriving and seeing James out the front. James was around 6ft. He had brown hair with green eyes. He had a muscular build and every time he hugged me, I felt safe.

"James!" I yelled.

"Mands!" he yelled back. No one else apart from James, calls me Mands. It's weird but I love it. I was suddenly in a warm embrace.

"How have you been?" he asked. I grabbed his hand and looked him in the eyes.

"This story is gonna take a while" I told him.
He nodded, looking kinda confused.

"Should we order first then?" he asked.
I smiled and nodded.

I grabbed a table and looked around to make sure Brooklyn wasn't here yet. Wait, why do I even care? I don't. Not at all.
James walked out with my hot chocolate and donut.

"So now, about this story" He questioned.

"Well it all started when we arrived here for Mum's work...." I started.

All the way until the end. James listened. From Brooklyn telling me I had amnesia, to me being pregnant, to me being in jail, and up to now. God, I loved him. Wait, like as a friend...

"...And now he's dating this girl Yaz. She's nice, but I don't know what to think" I ended.
He sat there. Staring at me. He grabbed my hand and put his hand on top.

"You've been through a lot, huh?" he asked.
"Yeah..." I looked down. He grabbed my hands and pulled me up from my seat. We stood there for a good 10 seconds before he looked down at me.

"I'm sorry I wasn't there to help you..." he told me.

I smiled, slightly.

And within that moment. He bent down and kissed me. Like not a peck, a full on, tongue kiss! What? He's a friend? Right? No. James is my friend. This can't be. Wait, fuck! I don't know! We released and I looked at him.

"Sorry" he apologized. His face got sad all of a sudden. I wanted to tell him that it was okay, but I looked over and there was Brooklyn. Staring at me. I let go of James' hands and looked away.

"That's Brooklyn" I whispered to James.
He looked over and grabbed my hand again.

"Can we show him what he's missing out on?" he asked.
I didn't know what to think. James is a friend. But god he's hot. He's kind and loyal. But I don't know what to think right now.

"Uh.. fuck it. Go ahead" I answered. James smirked a little and pulled a strand of hair out of my face before he kissed me again. But this time, I liked it. I really liked it. I kissed back, placing my hand on his cheek. We kissed until we realized that people probably got annoyed that we were just standing there, making out. I looked at him and looked over to where Brooklyn was. He was kissing Yaz. I looked at my shoes and groaned.

"What's the matter?" James asked.
"Nothing. You know, I really liked that. Is that weird?" I asked him.
"Not at all, because I'll let you in on a little secret.... I liked it too" he answered.

I smiled and kissed his cheek, before we said goodbye and I began to leave Starbucks. I had been walking for about 5 minutes before I felt someone rush up behind me.

"Mandy? Wait up!"

It was Brooklyn. God, just leave!

"What?" I yelled harshly.
He caught up and walked beside me.

"I ran all that way!" he told me.
"Wow... want a medal?" I asked.

He frowned.

"I just wanted to ask you who that guy was earlier?"

"Who? James?" I answered.

"Yeah well I just saw you two at starbucks because Yaz and I were there too" he replied.

"What do you wanna know?" I asked him, bluntly.

"Just if you two are a thing?" he answered.

"God. Seriously, just go be with Yaz" I replied.

"Why?" He asked.

"Because you're going out, stupid! Don't bother me about my love life and I won't bother you about yours! Okay?" I told him.

He nodded.
"Okay, well cya?" I told him.

"Can we sort things out? We can be friends?" he asked.

I looked away.
"Why?" I asked.

"Because we live in the same house. We have to make it a bit less awkward..." he told me.

I nodded a little.

"So are we cool?" he asked.

"Nope but for the sake of your family, yes we are" I answered.

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"We fight constantly. Don't you think they get annoyed?" I answered.

He shrugged and nodded a little.

"Why don't we go for a swim? You know, take off the edge. Just enjoy each others company. As friends?" he asked me.

I shrugged.

"Why not" I answered.

He smiled.

As we got to the house, I opened the door and Victoria was waiting for us.

"Good! Mandy! Brooklyn said he was going to go swimming, so I bought you this gorgeous black bikini!" she smiled.

I smiled back.

"Thank you so much" I replied. I looked at it. It was stunning. It was simple but so gorgeous. It was fringed on the top and simple on the bottoms. I grabbed it and hugged her before I ran upstairs to change.

I put it on and surprise surprise. I look fat.

----BROOKLYN'S POV----

I got changed really quickly and headed down to the pool. Mandy must of still been changing. I gave the pool a quick clean and took off my top. Just then... Mandy walked out. Holy shit. Her body was fucking amazing. She had her hair down and had black sunglasses on, along with her black bikini. She looked like a goddess. She had her stomach pierced. God she looked amazing. I caught myself staring and looked away.

"You ready?" she asked.

I nodded, mouth still open.

She smirked and jumped in.

She burst out of the water. I may or may not have stared again.

"You comin' in or what?" she yelled.

I laughed and jumped in. I burst out of the water.

"Fuck it's cold" I yelled.

She giggled.

We were really close all of a sudden. Only a couple of inches away from each other.

I leaned in and so did she. Until we both pulled away instantly.

"Shit" we said in unison.

"I'm gonna go tan" she told me.

Great. I ruined it all. But damn. As she got out of the water she looked like a model and don't get me started on her body.
