Falling For You - A Brikey Story

Only You - Mikey POV

Don't get me wrong, I love Bryce. But I'm not ready for any sort of pain. Not now, not ever. My phone rang of the coffee table and I leaned over to answer it. "Hello".

"Hey Mikey! I need you to run down to class and help with a group project". The voice on the other side said. "Yeah, sure. On my way, should I bring my laptop and notes?.....Okay". I then hung up. Looking over my shoulder I dead on make eye contact with Bryce. "Who was that"? He asks me.

"A classmate of mine, I need to run down and finish a group project". As he lets me go.  "I'll be back right after I'm done, I promise". I say.

"Okay, I'll take a nap while you're gone", he yawns and walks up to my room.

I grab my backpack and headed out the door. What I didn't know...my laptop was still in the room. Took me like 20 minutes to get to class. When I entered the room I was tackled by a short blond girl, "Mikey"! She shouted. Realizing it was Loren, "Hey"! I hugged her back. It's been awhile since I've seen her, since she's always busy with doing her modeling thing. Then standing in the corner was Thomas. "You made it". He said with a smile. "Yeah". I say back. After our little catching up, we got straight to work. After a solid hour, we decided it was time for a break. Loren bolted towards the vending machines. Thomas and I took our sweet time following after her.

"Hey Mikey, do you want to go get dinner with me"? I turn my head to look at Thomas. "What"..I stared at him.

"Do you want to go get dinner with me"? He repeats.

I'm very confused, he wants to go on a date? "Sorry, I can't. Promised my boyfriend I would go home right after this". I say awkwardly.

His face went from embarrassed to pissed. "C'mon, I'm sure he wouldn't mind. Just go out with me". He demanded.

Taking a few steps back, "I have a boyfriend". I basically shouted.

I could tell that he was pissed. By the way his eyes stared at me and a frown on his face. Without having a chance to run, he grabbed my arm hard and pulled me into his chest. I tired to get out of his grip, but he was stronger than me. The next thing I knew...his nasty fucking lips were on mine. I'm still trying to push him off (might have looked like I wanted it, but I assure you. I DIDN'T.), until I see from the corner of my eye a figure...That's when I pushed Thomas as hard as I could and he finally fell to the ground.

Bryce looked at me while holding my laptop. "Mikey, I'll see you at home". He said emotionless. He pushed the laptop into my hands and turned quickly to leave. I stared at his silhouette as he left. I'm a terrible person. No. I'm not the terrible person here. Turning around I tackled Thomas back to the ground and punched him over and over again, till Loren tugged at my shirt endlessly crying. I rushed to gather my things and apologized to Loren, then ran out the door.

Please, please! I hope he didn't get the wrong idea. Please, I don't wanna lose him again. I ran and ran and ran. Bryce, I love you.
