Roommates

Chapter Sixteen

Bree's POV

It was around 7 when Nate dropped me off at Bradley's apartment. Thoughts circulated through my head, how Bradley would react and how it will affect the boys and The Vamps' relationship. I know that I'm doing the right thing. I belong with Levi, not Brad.
I knock on his door and a very disheveled and shocked Bradley answers the door.

"Bree...hey...what are you doing here?" Brad asks, trying to hide the panic in his voice. He steps out of his apartment and closes the door slightly behind him.

"I needed to see you, we need to talk."

"I don't think now is the right time, can we talk later?" Now I'm curious.

"Why can't we talk now? What are you doing in there?" I hear something fall and smash onto the floor. "Bradley, who's in there?"

I push him aside and push open the door. My jaw literally dropped to the ground when I saw who it was. Juliet.
I look back at Bradley who's avoiding looking at me.

"You're cheating on me?! And with Juliet?!" Tears are streaming down my face.  "How could you do this to me! She was my friend!" I sink down onto the floor while Juliet picks up her shoes  and her purse and walks quickly into the bathroom.

"I'm so sorry-" Bradley begins to say but I cut him off.

"How long has it been going on?" I've stopped crying and I look up at him, my eyes bloodshot. He stays silent and I shout the question at him again.

"About a month." Bradley says quietly.

Anger boils through my veins and I get up and slap him across the face so hard that my hand starts stinging. I storm out of the apartment and start jogging towards the car. Nate notices my mood and asks me what's wrong.

"Bradley cheated on me with Juliet." And with that I burst out crying again. Nate pulls me over and holds me while I cry into his flannel. I can't believe that  he could do that to me, and to think I thought that he actually cared for me. I can't believe I felt guilty for kissing Levi.
I think the fact that this was happening for a month angered me the most. It wasn't just a one night stand, they knew what they where doing, that they where betraying me but they did it anyway. I was so wrong about him.

That night all I wanted to do is be with Levi. When I got home I told him about what happened and he was so comforting. He brought me to his room and we lay down, my head resting on his chest and our legs intertwined. He stroked my head with his free hand while humming a song that I've never heard before. After I had calmed down I ask him what the song he was humming called.

"You'll find out soon enough" I don't question him further but I wonder about what he means.

After a while I start to drift off but just before I black out I hear Levi whisper
"Sweet dreams beautiful" and he plants a kiss on my temple.

Levi's POV

Seeing Bree so upset over what happened with Bradley really breaks my heart, I hate seeing her like this. To find out that your boyfriend was cheating on you with someone would destroy someone but to find out that it was your friend is devastating. That's why I can't let her find out that the boys and I knew about it, I can't risk losing her when I'm just after getting her.
I told the boys earlier not to mention what we saw while we where in Chipotle. They weren't very happy about lying to her but they know that it has to be done. Nate especially wasn't happy about it, he sees her as another little sister like Madison and hates lying to her. 
But he knows that he has to protect her from this.

I wake up in the morning to Bree snuggled up against me, her arms wrapped around my waist and her head just resting under my chin. I wish that we could just stay like this forever but unfortunately for me I have to go to rehearsal again.

Trying not to wake her up I gently move out of her grasp and roll off the bed to make sure not to make a lot of noise. I grab some new clothes and my Vans and go into the bathroom for a quick shower. I pop my head back into my room to make sure Bree's okay but she's still in deep sleep.

In the kitchen the boys are sitting around the table eating Lucky Charms in deep conversation. I pour myself a bowl and join them. They all stop talking and all heads turn towards me.

"Levi we need to talk about something." Austin says in a serious tone which makes me worry.
"What's going on between you and Bree? Like are you guys a thing now?" Well I wasn't expecting that.
"Amm...Well..." To be honest I don't know how to answer. We haven't talked about it and I don't think that we will for a while until she gets over what happened.
"Levi you need to get your crap together, we're going on tour on Saturday for nearly two months. You can't leave things the way they are now between the two of you. You guys won't see each other for ages and a lot can happen in two months. Don't you think that it would be better for the both of you if you guys actually talked about what you both want?" Nate does have a point. Bree could easily meet someone while I'm gone and forget about me. She's cute, smart, adorable and always sees the best in people, she's a catch and everyone can see that.
"You're right, I'll talk to her tonight."
After this the mood becomes lighter and after we're finished and leave a not for Bree reminding her where we're going the lads and I head off to practice.
