Friend of a friend || Reece Bibby - on hold

18.

(Honestly can't remember if they graduated or not in the story but if they didn't well hi they've graduated)

Tour was finally over.

The boys last show was last night and the smashed it. All of them.

Nothing much happened during the rest of tour, but me and brad didn't end up getting together. But it was for the best, he's focused on the music and of course I want him to be.

You know, lately I've been thinking a lot and many things have crossed my mind concerning where I am and what I'm doing. So, I've decided to start attending law school in hopes of doing something more meaningful with my time now that I'm not with the boys on tour all year. I start in a week and to be quite honest, I'm excited.

As of this second I'm watching Reece and Lexi fight over what kind of candy if better, such an entertaining sight. To be fair, the best candy is milk duds.

"You know you two could just get both kinds right?" I questioned the arguing siblings.

"Yeah, but then-"

"Let's just go get both," I interrupted Reece. He chuckled and shot his sister a look that I couldn't decipher.

We grabbed out coats and I made sure my phone was in my pocket. Why is it so cold in winter?
Reece went outside first and nearly caused me and Lexi to die f laugher when he slipped on a piece of grass that had frozen over from the cold.

"You know you're right about candy though," I shot lexi a wink and we laughed whilst Reece was still on the cold ground, pouting.

"Come on then you clumsy boy," I grabbed Reece's hand and helped him up. I adjusted his coat and we began walking the short distance to the convenience store.

"So how's it feel now tours finished?" I questioned.

"Can I tell you a secret?"

"You do anyway," I laughed.

He licked his lips and smiled. "We're doing our own UK tour soon. It will only be a week or two though."

(CONGRATS TO ANYONE WHIS GOING, CAUSE IM SO JEALOUS.)

"Really? That's great. The fans have been expecting this for a while now. They're gonna be so happy."

"We hope so," he looked down at the frost covered ground for a moment. "You can't come with us can you?"

I sighed, "I can't. I start school soon and it's important. But I fully support you guys."

He nodded and ran his fingers through his hair. It was lightly snowing, nothing too serious. Although.. Reece will probably fall over again.

"So.." he started but stopped for a second. "Talked to brad lately?"

"Uh, not lately. He's really busy."

Reece looked as if he wanted to say something but was stopped when we felt the warmth when we stepped into the convenience store.

He was quiet whilst we were browsing. Although we bought much more than we needed. The owner thanked us and we walked back outside to it being even colder. I mean, carrying a bag each didn't make it any better either.

I looked up at reece and saw his pale face flushed pink from the cold, it was actually rather adorable. His scarf tightly wrapped around his neck, and his green eyes seemed to be brighter.

"Are you cold?" He asked.

"A little, but we'll be home soon so let's walk faster."

Without any warning he managed to grab my hand and intertwine it with his. Automatically I knew my face had flushed a bright pink colour and I would blame it on the weather.

We didn't really say much after that, we walked back in silence and I could see out of the corner of my eye, that cheeky little shit was smirking. At least his hand was warm.

OKAYYY, so it's been a hot minute since I've updated. Being in my second last year of high school requires me to actually focus on my work and I have been doing that... but also binge reading bts fan fictions.
Anyway, I feel like I really wanna get them together soon so we can see some cute things, so spoiler for the next chapter but they're definitely getting together!
