R U Mine? - The Vamps Fanfiction

Chapter 6 - Wildheart

After everyone had finished their lunch, I collected all the rubbish up and put it in the bin in the kitchen. As I walked back In they were discussing plans for this afternoon.

"Seeing as we have that concert coming up maybe we should just practice one song then?" James said.

"Yeah, alright! Which one though?" Tris asked everyone.

Brad looked up at me with his luscious brown eyes as I entered the room. "What about wildheart?"

Everyone agreed seeing as Brad was the leader of the band and they disappeared off to get some instruments. I watched them all go downstairs into Brad's cellar which his parents had converted into a music room a couple of years ago. Unfortunately it wasn't big enough to fit all of them in there at once with all the instruments so Brad decided that they should get the things they needed and bring them upstairs to play in the sitting room. It used to have lots of old toys and various old items that weren't needed anymore. I remember when I first walked down to the room with Brad. He wanted to find an old game that he wanted to show me. We spent a good 20 minutes trying to find it but in the end we couldn't.

I decided to follow them because I thought I could help carry some of the instruments for them.

Connor looked behind him and saw me coming so he held the door open for me and I walked down the stairs. The only thing that Brad's parents had really done to it was put a wooden floor down and empty the room. Also, as the room was a cellar and it had no windows installed, they lit the room really well using strong halogen ceiling lights.

"Could you carry this please Emily?" James asked me as he handed me an acoustic guitar.

"I don't have much choice do I?" I laughed.

I started to walk back up the stairs with the guitar, but as I turned to go through the door, a familiar voice shouted,

"Oh hey Em. Wait up! Could you get my guitar from my room please?"

I lent back and nodded at Brad who was beaming up at me. I walked through the door and into the sitting room. I placed the guitar that I assumed that James was going to play, against the sofa and went up to Brad's room.

I entered his room and went over to his bedside table to get his guitar. As I was about to take it, his phone on his bedside table lit up and vibrated. My heart skipped a beat. What if he had a girlfriend? What if she had texted him because she wanted to meet up?

Why was I so worried? I didn't care...

I looked at the screen. Twitter: 1 New Interaction. I let out a sigh of relief. It was like my breathing had stopped. *Oh well there was no harm in looking* I thought to myself. I unlocked his phone with ease. His password was the still the same. I knew that he rarely changed it.

@thevampstristan; "Just practicing some old tunes with the gang and @emilykp."

"What are you doing up here?" I heard a voice say from the doorway.

I turned around suddenly and shielded the bedside table from Brad's view so that he couldn't see that I had been on his phone.

"I was just coming! Honestly!" I smiled at him.

I felt around behind me, locked his phone quickly and then grabbed his guitar and followed him down the stairs.

"Where did you guys get to?" Tris winked at me as we walked into the sitting room together.

Brad rolled his eyes at Tris and turned around to get his guitar from me. I was staring at Tris and not really concentrating so I walked into Brad.

"I'm so sorry!" I said, and quickly handed him his guitar.

"Don't worry" Brad reassured me.

"Just call me if you guys want me. Ill be in the kitchen."

"No Em, come and listen." Brad pleaded to me doing his adorable puppy face.

How could anyone resist that?

I sat on the sofa and watched as they got ready to play. Tris adjusted his drum kit and took off his denim jacket. He threw it at me and he got me right in the face. I yelped and pushed it onto the seat next to me. Connor was ready and he just looked at his feet and sniffed a couple of times. Brad had told me that he was always quiet. James adjusted the guitar strap to fit him, as he was taller than Brad, and strummed a few chords to get into the song. Brad was standing about 2 metres in front of me and he rolled up the sleeves of his jumper and cleared his throat.

"Everyone ready?" He looked around at the others. James smiled, Connor put his thumbs up and Tris threw his drum sticks into the air and pointed them at Brad as he caught them. He was such a show off.

"1, 2, 3, 4..." Brad mumbled in a husky voice.

James, Connor and Tris all started to play various rhythms and chords which harmonised perfectly and sounded amazing. I listened in awe.

"I was walking away,
But she's so beautiful it made me stay"

Brad's gorgeous voice made me feel all warm inside and I smiled. He was so perfect.

They sang the chorus and I felt myself bobbing along as they jumped and sang. The second verse was next. I had listened to this song, what felt like, hundreds of times and I knew what was coming up. Brad stared at me whilst singing and I went bright red. I felt my cheeks burning as his eyes pierced into mine and I couldn't take my eyes off of him.

"Stay here my dear,
feels like I've been standing right here for years
My mind's made up
Tell me you feel this, you know I won't give up
I won't give up"

As he finished the verse he smirked at me and winked. I felt my cheeks burn even brighter and I looked down into my lap and played with my hands.
