R U Mine? - The Vamps Fanfiction

Chapter 7 - The mini trip

"So...did you like it?" Brad asked me.

"Of course! It was amazing!" I replied, smiling up at him.

Brad came and sat down next to me, Tris sat on my other side and Connor and James put down their guitars and relaxed on the other sofa. We all sat there in silence for a while. All I could hear was Brad breathing, next to me. His chest slowly rising and falling beside me. Brad turned his head to look and me and I turned mine in the other direction, and looked out the window.

"It actually looks quite sunny now." I said.

"We could go to the park if everyone wants to? It's in the opposite direction to the corner shop, but it should only take about 10 minutes maximum." Brad told us.

"That sounds great!" James exclaimed.

"Everyone grab what they want. I'll go and see if we have anything that we can bring."

Brad got up and went on a search. I slowly pulled myself off the sofa and walked to the front door. I pulled out my phone from my pocket to see if I had any messages. Sure enough, I had a message from my friend.

Sophie: "Hey Emily :) How is it going? I hope you are having a good time. I'm not doing much at the moment, but I know you are probably busy. Speak later xxxxxxxx"

I sent a quick reply explaining what I had done so far today and put it in my pocket, as I didn't want to bring my bag. I wouldn't need it anyway.

James, Tris and Connor put on their shoes around me and we all walked outside and waited for Brad. He arrived shortly with two picnic rugs and a football. I looked down at my feet and saw that I wasn't wearing very practical shoes. I guess I could always take them off if the grass isn't wet. I loved the feeling of grass in between my toes.

We followed Brad down the street towards the park. It was actually quite hot now and the sun was shining. Maybe summer would last a bit longer? Tris and Brad were walking at the front and Con and James behind them. I sauntered behind everyone scuffling my feet along the ground.

We arrived at the park shortly, and it was beautiful. The green grass stretched, for what seemed like miles, and there were gorgeous trees and flowers along the edge and dotted around the park. We went through the gate and Brad chose a spot where we could sit. He lay out the picnic rugs on the grass, and started to kick the football around with Tris. I slipped off my brown shoes and lay down on one of the picnic rugs. I put my arms behind my head and closed my eyes...

"Boo"

I opened my eyes abruptly, and all I could see were two big brown eyes and a mass of curly hair. I let out a tiny yelp as he scared me. I pushed at his chest and, as he didn't expect it, he fell and rolled over onto the other half of the rug next to me.

"You're so annoying!" I moaned and rolled over onto my side to face him.

"You love me really."

"Just keeping telling yourself that." I laughed.

"Hey don't be mean" He poked me under the ribs and pulled a sad face.

"Oww. I was only joking, silly."

"What are you guys doing over there?" I heard a distant voice.

"Nothing inappropriate Tristan.." Brad answered, rolling his eyes.

I felt my cheeks burning.

Something brushed past my leg and I broke Brad's gaze and looked down at my leg. Suddenly Tris jumped in between us and I rolled over as I was being squished.

"Want to play football?" I asked Brad, ignoring Tristan being stupid.

I watched out of the corner of my eye as Brad ran straight past me like a bullet, kicking the ball. I sprinted after him. I tried to steal the ball from him but he dodged me. We ran around the park for a while. Brad kept on kicking the ball but wouldn't let me have it. As he turned to go left, I sprinted diagonally and stuck out my foot to try and take control of the ball.

Brad didn't see this coming, so he ran full speed and tripped over my foot. Our legs intertwined and we both fell down. I scrunched up my face, ready to hit the hard ground but a small squeak escaped my mouth as I fell down onto Brad. I opened my eyes to see his eyes glinting in the sun. We were lying on top of each other, our bodies pressed together and our lips inches from touching...
