The Contest (cte fanfic)

Chapter 15.

Gueysss I really dislike the update for the Wattpad app. It's a serious problem. Like I'm used to doing this all a certain way and it's like BAM! Change! Ugh idk. Plus I'm really scared if I accidentally hit the back button at the top and everything I wrote is gone. OML.

"So when are you guys leaving?" I ask.

"Trying to get rid of us that fast?" Brandon asks.

"No! I mean. I'm just asking so I know when to start preparing to cry for a week. Ya know. The usual."

"Ahh I got it. Uh we are kind of leaving tomorrow night." He says.

"Oh. Well let's do something! Like we could eat or play Sorry. Or we could eat and play Sorry!" I say

I run into the kitchen and grab the pizza and then go to the cupboard and get the game. Benn and Acacia seem to have taken a liking to each other. Everyone except me and Brandon went out to some party and said they are going to be back around midnight. Kinda funny how everyone left me alone on my birthday. Thank god for Brandon. I go back into my room and set the game and pizza on the floor next to me.

"You are seriously the best ya know. Oh almost forgot. I got you a present." He says.

"Oh god. No you really shouldn't have got me one. Seriously. There was no need to." I quickly say.

"Mhmm. Here. Open it." He says.

He takes a small box out of his jacket and hands it to me. I start opening it and he starts smiling. I lift the piece of cloth and look at Brandon.

"Why?" I ask trying not to laugh.

"I saw it and it reminded me of you." He says smiling.

"Yeah? So a ring with a dick on it reminds you of me?" I say laughing.

"Oh of course! Look under the cloth it's on." He says.

I lift up the ring and then the cloth it was on. A silver necklace with a gold heart hanging from it. It is so beautiful god I swear I could cry.

"Thank you so much Brandon. It's beautiful. I seriously can't believe you did this." I say hugging him.

"Here. Let me put it on you." He says.

We both get up and I move the pizza onto the bed. Can't risk stepping on that! I turn around and he puts the necklace around my neck. Once he hooks it I go over to the mirror to look at it. I walk back over to him and he hugs me.

"It looks great on you." He says.

He moves his face and looks at me.
This is a good birthday. This might actually be the birthday that makes me start liking my birthday. I focus back into what was happening in the real world and I look at Brandon. He leans in closer to me and our lips connect.
In this moment I cannot explain how I feel right now. He pulls away and looks at me again.

"This won't work will it?" He says.

"Honestly. I don't think so. I mean your supposed to be my best friend. Not my boyfriend. Your supposed to be like a brother to me." I say.

"Exactly what I was thinking. But I'm totally still going to bug the shit out of you." He says.

"Good. I'm going to go get a beer. Want one?" I ask.

"Sure. I'll set up the game."

I walk back into the room and he is still setting up the board. I set his beer down and we start playing.

"You were thinking about Brent when it happened right?" He asks.

"Yeah."

That's all I remember from last night.

"Kaaaaaat do you want pancakes?" Someone says.

I look up and see Acacia standing right next to my bed.

"Sure. Just a little quieter please. Hangover is bad." I whisper.

She leaves the room and I grab my phone. I move my arm and it touches something beside me. I look over at whatever my arm hit. I roll over and fall out of my bed.

"HOLY FUCK WHO ARE YOU" I yell.

The person turns over and their face is buried in the pillow. I can't see them! I get up and go into the kitchen. I see Benn, Andy, and David sitting on the couch while Acacia is making pancakes.

"Who is in my bed?!" I ask.

"Dude we don't need to know about yours and Brandon's sex last night. Keep it PG." David says.

"What? That's Brandon? Okay good, and we didn't have sex. I don't think. Ew no. We broke up. God." I say.

"What?" Andy says.

"Yeah. We did. But we are good. She's still like my annoying ass little sister." Brandon says behind me.

"Dated your sister." Acacia says taking a bite of a pancake.

"At least I'm not dating Benn! No offense Benn." I say.

"You banged your so called brother." Acacia says laughing.

"Even if I did it would be better then dating my best friends friend." I say " I- I'm sorry. I have to go."

I go into my room and find the nearest pair of jeans, a shirt, and a jacket. Once I put all of those on I get my vans and my phone. I walk out of my room and through the kitchen. Everyone is staring at me. Great. That just exactly what I want! Maybe going back to Cali wouldn't be a bad idea right now. I leave the apartment and start to walk to the nearest park. This wont be as bad right? I mean. Acacia doesn't get mad that easily. She's cool. That's why I'm here.

Heyy. So um very very short chapter. But I bring news! This story will be put on hold for two reasons;

1 is that I'm not getting many reads and stuffs like that so idk why I kept making more chapters.

2 is that I'm making a new story and it will most likely be about
A band..idk what band yet. Heh. OMG what if it was like about Of Mice And Men or Pierce The Veil. Oooooo. Heh idk. Sorry.

Soooo I'll probably post all the chapters I haven't yet. I had this weird process where I made like three chapters then posted the first and like I've posted #8 (?) I think last and I've already written 15. Soo sorry. Anywayss. That's happening.

Oh and I love you if you read all of this. Thank you and goodnight.
