➬ NARRATIVE
BRIELLE WAS laying belly down at the end of her bed, gluing polaroids of her and anthony into her scrapbook. she had several of them, but the one she currently working on was to be gifted to him for their six month anniversary. it was to showcase the memories they happened to make during their time dating.
anthony laid in the middle of the girls queen sized bed, his head rested on a stack of her silk cased pillows. he was on his phone as per usual. brielle ruled it off as simply a bad habit, being that she was often found on her phone as well. it just annoyed her that he would even be on it when they were hanging out together.
bri was in the middle of doodling hearts around the polaroids when she heard anthony's phone shut off, and automatically she felt relieved.
"baby come heree" he whined, his hands rested behind his head. brielle turned her head to him, her pen still in hand, "whyy" she mocked.
"i wanna cuddle" he pouted. brielle smiled at him before getting up to put her supplies away. she clapped two times to turn her lights off before turning on her led lights with the digital controller that was mounted into the wall by her door.
that little screen alone controlled so much, including her flat screen tv, her speakers, the heating, the ac, and all the lights in her room.
"turn on red" anthony smirked from the bed. brielle found herself slightly blushing as she selected red, dimming it down a bit.
she pushed the drapes surrounding her bed out the way before climbing in to lay beside the blue eyed boy. automatically he wrapped his lanky arms around her, pulling the brownskin in tightly.
he played with her braids as the two made simple conversation. it was getting late and brielle was starting to feel drowsy. anthony not so much. he was a night owl and didn't have a set sleep schedule like bri did.
"can i ask you a question" anthony said in a low soft voice as he caressed her cheek with his thumb. brielle hummed out a yes while she played with his sweatpants drawstring.
"i know this probably isn't the best time to talk business but do you think there's a way your dad could promote the sway house more on tiktok or something" his eyes remained looking down at her face.
anthonys request wasn't unusual to brielle. he would always ask her for free promotions, brand deal help, or sometimes even money. but she never saw it as much, being that the request occurred in good distance of each other, and wasn't an everyday situation. plus she enjoyed helping him.
"yeah of course" bri simply responded, her attention still on his pants. whenever she was tired she would always just focus on one random object until she fell asleep, it was a weird habit.
anthony smiled before leaving a soft kiss on her forehead, causing a gentle smile to form on brielle's lips. "i love you" she said in a tired voice, as she felt her eye lids become heavy. "i love you more" ant replied sincerely.
brielle let out a small yawn before cuddling into anthony more. she always found it simpler to sleep when he was over, it got lonely a lot of the time.
anthony waited until bri was fully asleep before he removed himself from her bed. he placed a kiss on her cheek, grabbed his phone, and made his way out of her room.
he was supposed to spend the night but he needed to get home because of an emergency. or at least that was what he would tell her.
