"So, you're in Bristol right now?" Reece asks George through the phone as he balances his phone between his ear and shoulder. He's packing some stuff to catch up with George, Y/N and Y/N's friend (who he learned is actually a guy named Brad).
"Yeah. We're having a meal right now. Do you want to talk to Y/N?" George asks innocently, like a child.
"Does she want to talk to me?" Reece asks him. The whole situation itself is a bit petty and pathetic. Reece is upset that Y/N isn't texting him like she used to and Y/N, herself, isn't sure why she did that to Reece, but she's also upset. What the fuck.
If you listen carefully, it's like George is a child of divorce. It's as if his dad (Reece) called him to ask how he's doing and his dad asking if his mum (Y/N) wants to talk to him. It's quite similar. Only, this isn't a divorce. It's just friendship.
"I don't know." George shrugs. 'The safest answer ever.' He thought.
Reece sighs and says, "Okay well I'm going there too. Wait for me, please? I'll be quick."
Reece couldn't understand George from the other line, because it's muffled but eventually George says that they'll wait for him at the train station where he'll be arriving.

"What's taking him so long?" Y/N asks, already bored and slightly pissed from waiting on Reece.
"I don't know." George shrugs. He actually does know the reason, but in fear of Y/N lashing out on him, he'd prefer to stay quiet.
"There's a train coming. It might be him this time." Brad says to lighten up the mood.
The train comes in and all three of them looked through the sea of people in hopes to find Reece somewhere. "What does he look like again?" Brad asks, still looking.
"He's really tall; about 6FT. He has dark blonde hair and he's really skinny." Y/N describes. Brad nods and looks through the crowd for some guy who's really fucking tall with blonde hair.
"I see him, I see him!!" George cheers like a child on Christmas Day. He points at a guy who's clearly having a hard time passing through the sea of people reuniting with their loved ones. Reece finally gets to where they are and pulls George in for a hug.
"I missed you, mate!" Reece smiles. George hugs back and says that he missed him too. They pull away from the hug and Reece turns to Y/N. "I missed you!" Reece says and hugs her tight.
"Okay, I need to breathe but I've missed you too." Y/N lightly chuckles before pulling away from the hug.
Reece looks at Brad from head to toe. "You must be Y/N's friend. Hi, I'm Reece and any friend of Y/N is a friend of ours." Reece says and shakes Brad's hand.
Brad seemed a little scared of Reece. Maybe because of his towering frame, but maybe there's something else. Or most likely just because he's taller.
They walk toward the exit and Reece and Y/N walk alongside each other whilst Brad and George walk behind them.
"Is it just me? Or does your friend seem a lot nicer to me than Blake?" Brad asks quietly to George. George looks at him and shrugs, "I don't know."
"I suppose I think I'm just being silly. Thanks George." Brad smiles genuinely and offers to help Reece with his things. He's only carrying a duffel bag after all.
George stays behind a bit and let's out a sigh of relief. "I swear 'I don't know' is the safest answer ever. I don't have the heart to tell him that Blake is extremely jealous of him and that his dad is ill." George quietly says to himself.

A/N: AAAAAAYE an update before I go to school. Hence, why it's short.
Love y'all.
