"I now have a sudden dislike for Swedish furniture." Ella groans, fake collapsing on the floor next to a half made dining table. I let out a laugh, setting down the box I'm carrying on the kitchen bench.
"Yeah actually, could you please remind us why we're here helping you." Tristan walks into the room and everyone shouts in agreement. That's everyone as in, James, Connor, Ella, Isabella, Alyssa and Brad.
"Brad! Why are you agreeing with them all? This is your house too!" I throw my arms up in the air and he lets out an exasperated sigh. Brad gets up off the ground and puts his hammer down next to our nearly made bed frame. We have the whole gang over to help us build all our new furniture and to help unpack things in our newly purchased house! We're all gathered in the kitchen/dining/living room, each with a piece of furniture to build or a box to unpack.
"Because this is so tiringggggg." He walks to the couch, throwing himself onto it. I roll my eyes at him and then look to everyone else.
"And guys you're helping us because you're our friends and you're awesome and you're so... handy." I trail off, trying to make the situation slightly better. I'm not having much fun either, but I'm going to make sure these guys stay to help as long as possible. They all stare at me, blinking, "C'mon guys! We're nearly done! This is the second last box to unpack," I gesture to the box in front of me, "And these are the last bits of furniture to build." They continue to stare at me, not looking too amused. "I'll shout us pizza once this is all done?" I offer and they all spring up, getting back to work.
I should've known it was that easy to get them to help out.
<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>
I open up the bin, chucking out all the empty pizza boxes with a big sigh. I'm exhausted, extremely exhausted. Everyone just left and Brad and I are trying to clean up as much as possible so we can go to bed.
Brad is standing at the sink, humming as he cleans all the dishes. I can't tell what he's humming but I chuckle, watching him shake his butt and shimmy, not knowing I'm watching him. I come up behind him, slapping his butt and he drops the fork he's cleaning into the soapy water, turning around with his mouth wide open.
"Excuse me, that was extremely inappropriate." He looks down at me with a cheeky grin and I roll my eyes.
"You're so cute though." I grab his cheeks in my hands, squishing them together as I laugh at his unamused face.
"Stop calling me cute, I'm manly." He moves my hands away from my face pouting and I burst into laughter. He pulls me in for a hug and we stand there in the middle of the kitchen for a few moments. This is just pure bliss. I get to live with Brad. I get to spend every day with him. I get to live my life with him. I just can't imagine things getting any better.
"Have you got any plans for tomorrow at all?" He asks me, snapping me out of my thoughts.
"No not really, maybe just fix up some more stuff around the house?" I look up at him, still keeping my arms wrapped around him.
"Well that sounds very boring. So I have a proposition," He tells me, breaking up our embrace and sitting up on the countertop. He swings his legs back and forth like a child and grins at me.
"What is this proposition?"
"Okay so, there is a pet shop about a 20 minute drive from here." He begins and my mouth instantly drops open, "and I was thinking we could maybe take a trip there and get a new addition to the family..." He trails off and I let out a squeal, jumping up and down.
"NO WAY! NO WAY! Oh my gosh I can't believe this is happening. I've always wanted a little doggo but I've never been able to have one and its made me so sad but now we can get one! Oh my gosh! It can be friends with Jesse and they can have doggie play dates! We can go on walks. We can cuddle it on the couch. We can play fetch and buy squeaky toys!" Brad sits on the counter directly in front of me, watching me jump up and down in amusement. "This is so exciting Brad. Thank you so much." I say once I calm down. I feel my eyes beginning to water and my lip quivers.
He laughs, hopping off the counter and stepping towards me, grabbing my face. He wipes away the small tears rollin down my cheeks and leans forward, planting a soft kiss on my lips. He pulls away but I grab his shirt, bringing him closer to me as I continue our kiss. My hands trail their way up to his hair and I slightly pull it, deepening the kiss.
Brad pulls away from the kiss, his lips brushing up against mine, "I think we should try out our new bed." He whispers and I gasp, slapping his arm.
"Bradley Will Simpson!" I laugh and he smiles, winking at me. Oh Jesus Christ that got me. I roll my eyes and grab his hand, dragging him in the direction of our bedroom.
