***Brad's POV***
Paul and I were sitting on the couch playing Halo Reach. We had almost finished the level when I heard someone coming down the stairs. It must have been someone for Paul because they stoped in the door way and waited for the level to finish. I killed the final alien then the game ended.
"What do I need to do?" I have heard that voice before!
I turned around and saw my ex-girlfriend, Amber. I never thought that I would see her again. She kinda disappeared after we broke up.
"Brad?" She asked me. I was frozen where I sat. She broke out of her frozen state and ran over to me. She jumped on me and hugged me. I hugged her back.
We just sat there hugging for a minute. Then she pulled away and tried to stand up but I pulled her back down onto my lap. She stayed. This time she lay ed her head on my chest and smiled up at me.
I looked over at Paul and saw that he was looking at us weird. I looked back at Amber and saw that she was staring at me. In her eyes I saw hope and happiness. She was hoping I would take her back to her family. I might.
"You guys know each other?" Paul asked, breaking the silence. I looked at Amber again and she was looking down at our hands which we still had joined.
"Ya she's my ex-girlfriend." I say.
"Oh." Was all Paul said.
Amber looked uncomfortable. She was sitting on my lap when she looked up at me and said,"Follow me." She stood up and pulled me off the couch. I followed her out of the room, up the stairs and to a small door. She opened it and went in. It was the size of a broom closet.
Inside the room there was a small bed stuck in the corner, a tall lamp next to the bed, a small dresser taking up the rest of the room.
Amber pulled me over to the bed and sat down. I sat next to her and looked around the small room some more. I was guessing that this was her room.
"What are you doing here Brad?" she asked me.
"What am I doing here? What are you doing here?"
"I work for Paul." She stated then looked at me waiting for me to answer her question.
I sighed then said,"I met Paul not to soon after we broke up."
"And you never came over here before this?" She asked looking up at me.
"No, we usually went out but he asked me over so that we could hang and deal with his maid problems." I confessed. Amber looked down at her hands, She looked back up. After a moment she asked,"Maid problems?"
