Time Is Not On Our Side - Bradley Simpson

Chapter 6: I'm just disappointed...

Today is the day, I have a date with Ethan in a restaurant in an hour, I'm terribly stressed and unfortunately for me, Brad is not there to reassure me, he's still in the studio today. So I'm alone in front of my dressing wondering if I should listen to Brad and put on the red dress that we bought the other day.

I was in full reflection when I heard noise in the entrance. Strange, Brad is in the studio and he doesn't have my keys anyway. But then if it's not Brad ... Can it be a burglar? I started to stress when I heard that this person was breaking things, on top of that I was still in my pajamas. So I moved discreetly before advancing little by little in my corridor. On my way I found an umbrella that I had left that the other day. I took it with me so that it would help me defend myself just in case. Yes I know, it sucks but it's the only thing I found. So I slowly crossed the corridor before finding myself in the living room, it was dark and I could barely see what was going on but I could hear very well and there was clearly someone with me in this living room . I walked quietly hiding behind the couch to see better and that's where I recognized him.

I was going a little further before I found myself right behind him. Fortunately for me he hadn't seen me. So I lifted my umbrella before hitting him behind the head

"- Ouch !!! He screamed as I turned on the light.

- Don't move or I call the police! I screamed as I jumped on him

- What ?! But don't do that! He replied, his face pressed against the floor while he was buried under my weight

- How did you get in? I asked him while sitting on his back

- Your door was open. He answered me.

- What were you looking for? I asked him

- I just wanted to turn on the light but you moved all your furniture and I lost all my bearings. Can you move from my back now? He asked me

- I don't really know if you deserve it, you could have been a burglar.

- Yes but I'm just your best friend so you can move now. He pushed me away as he could

- You could have told me you were coming. I told him while I finally get up from him

- I wanted to surprise you, I knew you would be stressed so I got up earlier this morning so I could finish the job on time. He admitted to me by rubbing his head on the spot where I had hit him

- You freaked me out you know! I thought I was going to die. I said then that he peered into the room

- Fortunately, I was not a serial killer. He told me

- Why ?

- Because it's not with a simple umbrella that you would have stopped him. He pointed to my umbrella, laughing

- Oh really? However, judging from the bump that is appearing on your skull, my weapon is quite effective. I replied by sticking out my tongue

- Besides, you're fucking crazy. You know there was no need to hit me. He grumbled

- It was to take revenge of you for making fun of me when I fell the other day.

- Good argument. He told me looking at his watch. I don't want to stress you Lily but you have a date with sexy boy in 20 minutes

- What ?! But I will never have time to prepare! I ran to my room to get dressed

- Aren't you wearing your red dress? Brad said to me when he joined me in the bedroom
