Mr Player vs The bad boy.

CHAPTER 28

-KASEY'S POV-

We were once again back on the road. You probably wondering what happened after James arrived right? Well, Brad offered him a seat at our table and I swear that was one of the most awkward moments of my life. But then the awkwardness got replaced by curiosity when Brad got a call and he excused himself from the table to go take the call privately.

I can't say I wasn't bothered by it, as a matter of fact I was really disturbed by it. I tried convincing myself that he probably did that because of James being there,  but then again that was just a lie to feed my insecurities.

I've been slightly off since the call and Brad could clearly see that. We made a few more stops in our one hour drive which made the trip longer. All I wanted was to get home and bury myself into a pool of tears. (overreacting, I know).

The sun was setting when we got to our small town. Mario was in the back seat sleeping. He looked so adorable and he was really a complete sweetheart.

"How about one last stop?" Is he kidding me? We've been stopping at useless places the whole day. We even spent an hour at a bird farm (okay that was cool, but really unnecessary)

"I'm just tir-"

"Perfect,  I knew you'd agree." He cut me off with a grin spread wide on his face. I really can't believe him right now.

"I'm really-"

"I have a surprise for you. " he removed his gaze from the road looking at me.

I hesitated looking back and forth from him and the busy road.

"Please? " he pulled cute puppy dog eyes at me. How could I possibly say no to that?

"Okay" I sighed. "But please keep your eyes on the road."

The smug look on his face didn't go unnoticed when he turned his focus back on the road.

"Oh, one more thing." He fiddled in his dashboard before pulling out a black cloth and tossing it at me. "Put that on."

"I have to be blind folded?" I asked holding the thick material between my fingers.

"Make sure its nice and tight." He made emphasis on 'tight'.

I rolled my eyes before blind folding myself. He wasn't totally off the hook though,  but since I'm a sucker for surprises I guess I'll let it slide for now.

"Are we there yet?"

"No"

"How about now?"

"Yes"

"Really?"

"No"

Dammit I fell for that one. The excitement was bubbling up inside of me and a silly grin was on my face. The grin got wider when I heard the car pull over.

"Mario, wake up." I heard Brad shift besides me. "Mario?"

"No." Mario whined.

"C'mon dude wake up."

"Jeeez man, I'm bloody tired. Can't a guy get some res- whoa this place is-" I heard a slap before Mario yelled out in pain.

"Its Kasey's surprise.  Now could you just shut up and get out of the car?."

"Jeez man you could have told me that when you decided to fuc-" Mario's interesting choice of language got cut off by the slam of the door.

I haven't realised that Brad got out of the car until he opened my side of the car and the cold breeze hit my face. Brad held my hand and pulled me out of the car. I could still hear mumbled complains from Mario which caused me to let out a small chuckle.
