"It's beautiful here!" Brad says in excitement and looks around.

"I know right! I used to come here as a child with my family and we had one of the best memories here." Y/N says sadly, wishing things could be like that again. Unfortunately, she's been disowned.

"Y/N, let's go in there!" Brad says, pointing at a church. Y/N just nods and Brad quickly makes his way inside the church. It's been awhile since Brad has been to church. He used to go to church when his mother was still alive and that was when he was 12 years old.

Y/N immediately thought of George, her most religious friend. Her mind drifts back to when George tutored her for the Bible Quiz Bee, because she was the representative of their church. She'd be competing against other people from their local churches. It was hard for her and she didn't know why she was chosen, because George would've been the perfect representative.

Just as she's about to go inside the church to follow Brad, she gets another call from Blake. 'He just called last night. What the fuck does he want now?' Y/N says to herself before answering the phone.

"What?" Y/N says.

"Hello, to you too, Grinch." Blake laughs at the other line.

"Seriously, what do you want? You just called last night."

"Well, grumpy, we were wondering where you and your friend are. We want to catch up and follow both of you and maybe we can set up George and your friend." Blake smirks. "This'll be like a double date thing."

"I'M OKAY BEING SINGLE, Y/N. DON'T BOTHER." George shouts, not pleased with Blake's 'bright idea'.

Y/N laughs and decides to pull a prank on them, because they don't know that Brad, her friend, is a boy. "Okay, let's do that. We're at Corfe Castle. We'll wait for you at some place here. I'll text you. Just get ready, alright?"

"Alright. Bye!"

"Bye!"

Y/N chuckles to herself and follows Brad inside.

"So, who are we waiting for?" Brad asks before sipping his tea.

"My friends, Blake and George." Y/N says, looking around in case they come in and couldn't find them.

"Blake, wait up. You're not the only one excited to see her." a familiar voice says as two familiar people chime in the cafe. Y/N smiles and calls them over.

The three friends greet each other as if they haven't seen each other in ten years, even though it's only been a few days.

"So, um, where's your friend?" Blake asks as he looks at Brad, confused as to why there's a guy sitting at their table. "Oh, you must be Y/N's friend's brother. Hi, I'm Blake." he smiles and shakes Brad's hand.

"I'm George and don't worry, I won't date your sister. Where is she anyway?" George asks after shaking Brad's hand.

"Guys, calm down. He is the friend. I met him at the train station and we went to London together, because he's never been there." Y/N explains.

"That's correct. I'm Brad." Brad smiles shyly, slightly scared of Blake so he avoids eye contact with him. Brad is scared of Blake simply because he's really tall and he might think something is going on between him and Y/N, when in fact there's nothing going on. Brad is worried that Blake might be thinking that, because Blake has a thing with Y/N and he might be jealous that they went to London together without him knowing.

"Oh. Okay." Blake says and sits down next to Y/N. 

"So, why are you switching places?" Blake asks Y/N as he puts an arm at the back of Y/N's seat.

"Mum kicked me out." Y/N tells him. There's no point in lying.

"What the fuck? She kicked you out for getting caught and suspended? Where will you stay after the suspension?" Blake asks again, worried for the girl he likes... or loves.

"I haven't thought of that." Y/N sighs. She doesn't know what to do with her life. She started questioning her life decisions when she found out that Brad, in a way, gave up his education early on to start working for his cruel uncle to help his family, because they're broke. No sugar coating.

"You can stay with us." Blake offers with a smile. "You know that you're always welcome at my house." 

"Thanks, B." Y/N smiles at him and rests her head on his shoulder before continuing the conversation on how she's touring Brad around England, because he hasn't been ANYWHERE (except some shops in Birmingham). Y/N tells him about Brad's situation and Blake immediately understands him even though he was really jealous when they met earlier. However, his view of Brad changed and he's determined to make it up to him and be friends with him.

Not realizing that they're ignoring the others, Y/N and Blake continue their conversation, leaving George and Brad to talk amongst themselves.

"So, how'd you meet Y/N?" George asks, nicely. (a/n: "I Know Him" from the Hamilton soundtrack started playing as soon as I wrote George's line sjhsjkj slay me king george III)

"We met at the train station." Brad simply says.

"How'd you end up there?" George asks again.

"I, um, I ran away." Brad answers.

Beginning to get interested, George quickly asks Brad some questions, which he answers politely. Before they knew it, they're already hitting it off. Brad has a new friend besides Y/N and he's never been so happy.

Y/N looks at George and Brad with a smile on her face as she sees them get along. "So, who's ready to go around before we get some rest?"

"Me!"

"Obviously, me."

"You basically suggested to tour around England and didn't want to throw the opportunity away, so I'm obviously ready."
