Mine

Meant to be

BRAD

After Bella left I felt better and decided to go out.

I changed into black skinny jeans and a plain white tee, I chose my red leather jacket to accompany it.

It took me a while to get ready as I hadn't been out in forever. I couldn't find my jeans at first, they were hidden under a pile of clothes in my room.

I felt great as I ruffled my hair again, looking in the mirror. Although no matter how hard I tried I couldn't get it to look like it did when Bella styled it.

I picked up my phone excited and flicked down to James' number.

I hovered over the call button then I realised..

James doesn't want to speak to me.

I thought of Tris but knew he'd be out with his girlfriend somewhere and Connor always went to see his mum on fridays.

I know!

Bella.

I clicked dial and it started ringing, I was nervous, if she didn't pick up id of got dressed for nothing.

"Hello?" I heard her say.

"Hi it's me Brad."

"Hey!" she said brightly, I could hear muffled voices from her end but tried to ignore it.

"I'm up and I was wondering if you'd meet me?" I said nervously.

"Err...one sec." she was muttering to someone, I hoped it wasn't Liv but I had a feeling.

"I'm actually out with some friends right now." oh my heart dropped slightly, I really needed a friend. "But you can come meet us."

I felt slightly embarrassed, I begged her to meet me and she's there with Liv probably laughing away.

"Where are you?" I stuttered.

"We are actually near you." she laughed.

"Oh..."

"So do you want to meet us at that little cafe on the corner?" she asked, a girl started giggling in the background, I don't think it was Liv.

"Erm yeah sure." I said carefully. "Meet in 10?"

"Surey dorey!" she called. "I'll see you then." And with that she hung up.

I was scared, my palms were sweaty, going to meet a bunch of girls, Liv in the mix.

I left the house and walked towards the cafe, I could see Bella sat in the window chatting, the person she was talking to had her back to me so I couldn't see her face.

As soon as she saw me her face lit up and she beckoned me inside.

I went in and that's when I saw her.

The girl Bella was sat with.

Yes, she was with multiple friends but one stood out.

She was stunning, her blonde locks bouncing down her back as she laughed.

She looked at me and my heart fluttered.

She smiled and Bella turned round grinned and shouted for me to sit with them.

She introduced each of her friends.

I think the boy was called Damien and the girl sat with him was his girlfriend Cara. I didn't focus on them, only the bombshell sitting before me.

Tilly.

That was her name, it rung in my ears, it suited her well.

I took the only available seat, in between Bella and Tilly.

I was so focused on staring at Tilly I didn't hear Bella's question.

She tapped me on the shoulder gently, snapping me out of my trance.

"Brad?"

"Umm yes." I said dreamily.

"I said, how you feeling?"

I felt great just great, this girl next to me was my ticket out of lonelyville, she was my sun.

Liv who.....?
