Brad's PoV

For the past week I'd been staying with my cousin Connor. He had just moved out of his parents into a place a few hours away from tris. Contact with Tristan was sparse with him doing tonnes of promo and me trying to find a job.

"Brad? Have you seen these?" I looked over to Connor with a smirk on his lips. I got up, dragging my heels and walked over to him. I looked at his phone and saw endless videos named:

Tradley proof

The Tradley conspiracy

Brad & Tristan | real love

The never ending love of Tradley

"I don't want to see these videos."

He sighed "Why not Brad?" He said clicking on a video at random.

"No Con-" he put his hand on my arm and pulled me down next to him.

"We are going to watch it. What's the big deal? Don't you want to see what your fans theories on your relationship are?"

"Tristan's fans." I corrected. "And no, I don't want to see their theories."

He shrugged and clicked play. Some sad music started playing and my eyes involuntarily rolled.

We were all adamant about the fact Tristan and Ryan were happy. They were always smiling. But then Brad came along and made Tris happier. Although they deny they are together there is lots of relevant proof that indicates they are not entirely telling the truth and that in reality they are together.

1st proof:

This is by far the most important proof out there. The kiss.

I reached over and slapped the phone out of Connors hand.

"Oi! What are you doing?" He gasped.

"I don't want to watch those videos."

"Oh come on. It's interesting seeing what their views are."

"No it's not interesting in the slightest. We're not even sure if we're ever going to come out and now everyone's practically coming out for us."

He sighed. "It's not that bad Brad. Don't beat yourself up about it."

I stood up. "I- I just wanna go out and hold hands with him and go out to normal places and do normal things with the person I love. and I can't without articles being written about us and people creating conspiracy theories is it's just not fair, it's not fair." My voice cracked at the end and my vision blurred. "you know this is the reason we broke up first. we had this argument even though he was with Ryan so we didn't really break up. You know I had enough of the fame. I didn't want articles being written about the clothes I was wearing or the pub I visited and all the cafes I sat in with my mum. It's not fair being the subject of everybody in social medias conversations. it wasn't something I wanted and still nothing I want. I don't want to be victimised if I suddenly say I am dating Tristan just because some people have a foggy idea in their heads that Ryan was nice to him and that Ryan didn't beat him up. And that Ryan was his idealistic boyfriend. It wasn't like that at all. I don't want Tristan's fans to think that I was the reason that they broke up and I was this horrible person who stole Tristan it was Tristans idea to break up with him it was mutual. He was even too scared to do it himself. James had to do it. Its stupid. no one should be victimised by someone they're dating it's not right and the fans have no idea what they're talking about. maybe they should check things out, because I'm being targeted here. I don't want to see conspiracy theories about it, I don't care I need some air." I turned and walked out despite Connors protests to stay because 'it was cold'.

As soon as I had walked far enough away I got my phone out and dialled Tristans number.

Voicemail.

I rang again.

Voicemail.

And again.

Voicemail.

Again.

Voicemail.

And again.

Voicemail.

And again.

Voicemail.

I tried countless more times and. Nothing.

And then I gave up. My hands clenched around my phone in anger as it died. I threw it away from me and mentally kicked myself when I heard a splash in the direction of where I threw it. I kicked the tree next to me repeatedly until I broke down in pain, anger and sadness on the floor.
