One Chance [Bradley Simpson Fanfic]

Chapter 6✦Study Buddy

✦ Bradley's p.o.v

"Kadey the test is tomorrow and we haven't done any revision?" I ask gently nudging her, realising we hadn't spoken since Tuesday night when we fought.

"Yes I realised... I have dance tonight though." She mumbles not taking her eyes off her paper.

"What time?"

"Um 4 till 8:30."

"When were you planning on revising!" I ask generally concerned.

"Uh- I hadn't thought of that. Maybe when I got home if I could be bothered." She says tightening her long pony tail.

"I could come round to help?" I ask.

"No Bradley. I can do it myself." she half snaps at me.

"I know you study by yourself, but I am more of a 'study buddy' kinda studier, I study better with people. For me?" I ask as the bell goes signalling the end of the day.

"Ugh fine. Get my address off someone and be there at 8:50 or something." She groans packing up her things.

I can't reply seeing as she dashes out the door.

"Go upstairs, I'll make us each a hot chocolate. Second door on the right." She says whilst opening the door and busily walking to the kitchen.

I take quiet steps up the stairs in case her parents are sleeping.

"My parents aren't home tonight, you can make noise." she laughs. I hadn't heard that laugh for a long time, it's the cutest laugh and brings a smile to my face.

I walk into her room taking a seat on her bed near what looks like her text books.

She walks into the room carrying two mugs and hands one to me.

"I was doing some work before, you can copy it if you want?" I ask handing her some sheets of paper.

"Shit Brad it's one in the morning!" Kadey says sleepily from her side of the bed. We had both gotten cold and decided to slip under her quilt.

"Well we lost track of time aye, I'm feeling confident about the test, you?" I mumble all of a sudden overcome with tiredness.

"Yeah definitely." she says dumping all her books and things onto the ground next to her bed.

"Okay well I'll get going-" I begin.

"Brad, forget it. Put your things on the floor and just go to bed. Honestly you can't drive or walk you're too tired. I'll drop you at yours in the morning okay?" She whispers snuggling into her quilt.

"You sure? Is that okay?" I ask gently putting my things on the floor.

"Yes, now go to bed before I change my mind." She smiles shutting her eyes.

"Goodnight Kadey." I whisper shuffling a little closer to her.

"Goodnight Bradley." she whispers back also shuffling a little closer where our arms are only a centimetre apart.

I slowly wrap my arms around her where she stiffens at my touch, before slowly relaxing and snuggling into me.

"I really like you Kadey." I softly whisper barely able to hear it myself

"I really like you too Bradley." She softly whispers back.
