It’s been a few hours and Brad has not yet attempted to speak to me, I have been sitting in my room watching TV and eating takeaway Chinese food. I don’t know how I feel right now, I’m angry, but at the same time I’m too tired to care about it. I think they’re all back, but they’ll probably all go out for dinner or something, meaning more Olivia and Brad time. Why is she doing this? What does she have against me, I know she might like Brad, but who wants to go out of their way to destroy someone else’s relationship? I wouldn’t.

As I’m lying in bed I hear a tap at the door. When I get there it’s Connor, he has a sympathetic look on his face. I invite him in and he perches on the edge of the bed.

‘Are you okay?’ He asks me.

‘I don’t know Con, he knows how I feel about that girl, but he continues to go around with her, like he’s doing it on purpose.’

‘He’s just trying to be friendly, you shouldn’t blame him.’

‘I know, I know he would never do anything to purposely hurt me, I know it’s her. But he got angry at me for sitting with someone and having a drink, when we were talking about him, but he expects me to be okay with him going around with a girl who’s obviously in love with him and plans on stealing him away from me. He just doesn’t get it.’

‘He does Bella, he really does. He feels bad about what happened earlier, because he knows hat kid had done nothing wrong. I need to tell you something…’

‘Okay…’ I say now confused by what he’s talking about.

‘I heard Olivia on the phone the earlier. She definitely plans on taking Brad away from you; she’s trying to drive you away from him by making you doubt the relationship. Which is what you’re doing now. You need to make up with him or what she’s doing is working.’

‘Sly bitch.’ I mumble.

‘You two need to makeup, even if it means you apologising for doing nothing wrong. Bella, I don’t want you two to break up.’

‘Me either Con, I’ll go and see him.’ I hear Connor leave my room as I go into the bathroom to change, I pull on my cat onesie, which includes tail and ears and head down to Brads room. I knock on the door and pull the hood up before I hear it begin to open. When he sees me a smile spreads across his face before he begins to laugh at what I’m wearing. I wrap my arms around his waist and press my face against his chest, I feel him exhale as I do, relaxing into the hug.

‘I’m sorry.’ I whisper.

‘Me too.’ He says kissing the top of my head. I lift my head off his chest and look up at him, allowing him to plant a small kiss on my lips.

‘Right, get into your onesie, we’re watching films.’

He disappears into the bathroom and comes out a few minutes later in his famous monkey onesie. It makes him look even younger than he already does, but he looks adorable. I pick up the phone and phone room service, ordering us tonnes of junk food and popcorn to keep us occupied during the many films I have for us to watch. Once it gets delivered the argument of which film we’re going to watch begins.

I want to watch Frozen so I can sing along to the songs and basically I just love Disney films, Brad on the other hand wants to watch The Devil Inside. I am not a fan of scary films and can think of nothing worse than forcing myself to watch that for 2 hours.

‘Please baby, please please please.’ He begs holding the DVD in front of him. Whenever he calls me baby I actually turn to jelly, it makes me want to give in but I really do not want to watch it.

‘Brad, I’m too scared!’

‘I’ll protect you!’ He says flexing his muscles for me, it makes me smile.

‘Fine, but we have to watch Frozen afterwards okay?’

‘Fine!’

‘Promise?’

‘Pinky promise.’ He wraps his little finger around mine and pulls me next to him on the bed as the film begins. I have my head resting on his chest with a pillow in my hand ready to cover my eyes. Brad thinks it’s hilarious to play this game with me. Every time the music begins to get intense he screams making me jump out of my skin. He does it again, except this time I hit him with the pillow, he looks shocked, but picks up another pillow and begins attacking me with it. We’re both jumping on the bed and running around the room hitting eachother. I trip over onto the bed, dropping my guard, giving him enough time to climb on top of me pinning me to the bed and tickling me until I can barely breathe.

‘Say sorry.’ He says whilst attacking me still.

‘I’m sorry Bradley.’ I say between laughs.

‘Say Brad’s the best boyfriend and he’s sexier than anyone in the world.’

‘Brad’s the best boyfriend and he’s sexier than anyone in the world…’ He stops and lets me get up.

‘Except Harry Styles, I say running out of the room down the corridor, he chases me down the corridor and we begin to run around the hotel. It’s not too late so we shouldn’t get too told off for acting like children. As I’m running I bump into a group of people. They’ve finished dinner and have just come back to the hotel, this is awkward. Brad darts around the corner and comes to a halt when he spots them. We look at eachother, dressed in our onesies before everyone begins to laugh. Everyone except Olivia, she’s glaring at me, unaware that I know her plan. I’ve decided not to tell Brad what she’s doing, I don’t want to cause a massive argument when she is going to be here with us for the next few weeks. It’s better if he just doesn’t know, it’s hard though, trying not to jump on her and rip the blonde hair out of her head. She struts past the rest of us back to her room as we all continue to laugh at what Brad and I look like, after a few minutes of standing around in the hall we decide we should probably all go back to our rooms. Brad wraps his hand around mine, pulling me back towards the room, he turns the film off and instead puts on Frozen, just like he promised.

It begins to play and he cuddles up next to me, I know he’s not interested in the film but he’s watching it anyway, and getting to know the characters pretty well. He likes Olaf, it makes me laugh when he tells me because he’s pretending not to care about the film, but to me it sounds like he’s enjoying it. I begin belting out the songs, especially let it go, I look down at him to see a massive grin on his face.

‘What?’

‘You really like this film don’t you?’ He smiles. 

‘I like Disney in general Brad, it’s my childhood.’

‘You’re adorable.’ He plants a kiss on my head before returning to the original position he was sitting in. Once the film has finished we both get under the quilt and lay cuddling together.

‘It’s your birthday in a few days, what do you want me to get you?’ I ask, pushing my fingers through his hair.

‘You don’t have to get me anything babe. I don’t want anything.’ I look at him, one of them ‘don’t lie to me’ looks and he smiles.

‘Anything, honestly I’m not fussy, whatever you get me I’m sure I’ll love it.’ He kisses me lightly on the lips before closing his eyes. His breathing gets shallower meaning he’s fallen asleep. I begin to feel tired, but I’m not ready for sleep yet. I pick up my phone and begin tweeting.

‘@Isabella_Wilson: I’m stuck on what to get Brad for his birthday, any suggestions?’

Tweets begin pouring in, my favourites include:

‘Sex’ and ‘Blowjob’

They’re so dirty, but it makes me laugh. I scroll through a few of the more serious suggestions before shutting my phone off and slowly falling asleep next to him.
