R U Mine? - The Vamps Fanfiction

Chapter 13 - Unlucky for some

I woke up and rubbed my eyes. I lifted my head off of the pillow and looked at the clock on Brad's bedside table. 12:17pm.

I felt Brad's arms squeeze my waist, and he pulled me closer towards him.

"Morning Em." He whispered in his croaky voice.

I closed my eyes and listened to the sound of him breathing beside me.

"Shit." Suddenly, he jolted up and sprang out of bed.

"Woah what's up?" I sat up, confused.

"Tris is here." Brad started at me, with a worried expression.

"Biggy B. You upstairs?" I heard Tris call.

"Yeah ill come down Tris." Brad said in a panicked voice.

He opened the bedroom door and I heard his feet patter across the landing and go down the stairs.

I sat up in the bed and pulled the covers up around me, not sure what to do.

I suddenly heard footsteps coming up the stairs and I froze. I watched Tris walk past, obviously to use the toilet.

*Thank God he didn't see me* I thought.

A few minutes later I heard the toilet flush. Holding my breath in, so as to stay as still and quiet as I could, I waited for Tristan to pass.

"BRADLEY WILLIAM SIMPSON. YOU LITTLE SHIT." Tristan shouted.

He had seen me.

Fuck.

"Its not what it looks like." Responded Brad.

I sat in the bed with my hands around my knees. Brad and Tris' talking became distant as I became engulfed in my own thoughts.

I thought about Tris being here and seeing that I had spent the night at Brad's, and in his bed with him, but I think that I was just embarrassed about it. Why was Brad trying to convince Tris that we weren't together?

I rocked back and forth, putting my head on my knees.

"Hello...Emily?" I broke out of my daze.

"Oh umm sorry yes?"

"Never mind." Tristan sighed.

I looked up at Brad for support but he just stared at the ground. It was like he had been told off by a teacher for doing something wrong.

I got up out of Brad's bed, picked up my clothes from the floor and went to get changed in the bathroom.

I locked the door, walked over to the sink and splashed water over my face to wake myself up properly. I got changed, and when I walked back into Brad's room, they weren't there anymore.

I slowly walked down the stairs and peeked around the sitting room door to see Brad and Tris sitting down talking.

I tried to hear what they were saying but Brad caught my eye and I shuffled in and sat down opposite them.

"So then." I sighed.

"Look, I'm sorry for shouting at you Brad." Tris started, "But..."

I saw Brad glare at Tris and I was worried.

"But what Tristan?" I enquired, and he turned to look at me, with a sad expression on his face.

"...But Brad already has a girlfriend."
