Law of Attraction

T W E L V E

Will's POV

Today was Bex's first day at her new job, and I was so excited for her. The three years she has spent studying so hard had finally paid off, and in just twelve months she will be exactly where she always planned. A solicitor.

I finished up editing a video, before pushing my chair back and putting my feet up on my desk. Since Bex finished university, I really had neglected my channel. Spending every spare moment I could with Bex and lads, drinking and relaxing. But now that she was working Monday to Friday, I finally had no excuse but to get back to my daily grind.

Bex had only been gone since last night, and I had already filmed three videos, and edited two that I had recorded previously. My upload schedule was already back on track.

My phone begins to vibrate next to me.

Will: Howay man?

George: I am on my way to yours mate, need to film for the second channel

Will: Yeah that sounds like a plan, we can film for mine at the same time

George: No Alex this time? I though he was the star of S2W?

Will: Cheeky shit, you are on there almost as much as he is!

George: Fine, fine. See you in five

I quickly pull some jeans on, tidy up the mess on my desk and head into the kitchen to grab a bottle of water. George walks in, grabs a bottle of water from my fridge without saying a word, and walks off towards my bedroom.

'Hello to you too mate,' I shout, following him down the hallway.

We get both videos filmed, and I begin to transfer the footage onto my computer ready for editing. Once it is transferring, I return to my previous position with my feet on my desk.

'How do you think she is doing Georgie?' I ask, putting my hands behind my head.

'Bex? She will be smashing it, you don't need to worry,' he replied as he lays backwards on my bed.

'I know, but it doesn't stop me doing it,' I laugh, glancing at my watch to check the time. 'She finishes in an hour, so I had best go and get ready. I promised I would pick her up and take her to dinner.'

George says his goodbyes and head out of the door as I jump in the shower. I just stand there for a few minutes, feeling the water crash over me, relaxing me. I don't have a stressful life in the slightest really, but hunching over my desk for hours a day really does stiffen my shoulders and neck.

We snuggle up on Bex's sofa watching Netflix, her head rested on my chest. The past month or so had been amazing, but I still didn't know where we stood. We were basically a couple, but we hadn't discussed it.

'Bex?'

'Yes Lenney?'

'Can we make this official?'

'Make what official?' She genuinely looks confused.

'Me and you. Us. This.'

She lifted her head and kissed me gently on the lips. 'I thought you would never ask,' she kissed me again, smiling against my lips.

'Bex?'

'What now Lenney?'

'Move in with me.'

'What?'

'Move in with me.'

'What, at your place?'

'My place, your place, a new place. I don't care, just move in with me.'

'Okay.'

If only everything in life was that easy. Today was the greatest day of my life, and I can't pinpoint any other time where I have ever felt this happy. I pull her closer to my chest and kiss the top of her head, just enjoying the moment.
