Brad Pov
Audrey and I talked all night. We had the goofiest conversation that night.
Lunch Buddy: Brad , do you want to know something embarrassing about me ?
Me: Lol sure, do tell.
Lunch Buddy: Don't tell anybody but.. I can't swim.
Me: Lmao what ?
Lunch Buddy: I can't swim as in I don't know how to.
Me: Well I knew that, but like what happened? You never took any lessons?
Lunch Buddy: See about that, I tried to take lessons but I was afraid of water and I still am to this day..
Me: Omg , drey, I now know that I will not take you to a water centered area.
Lunch Buddy: Yeah, but Brad ?
Me: Yes drey?
Lunch Buddy: I'm super tired ):
Me: Awe, alright love, I'll pick you up at 7:45 okay ?
Lunch Buddy: Alright Bradley, Goodnight (:
Me: Goodnight Drey(:
Audrey was like one of the perfect friends. She was sweet, funny, and gorgeous. I just couldn't get over the fact that she was becoming one of my closest friends. I put my phone on the charger and rolled over in my bed. I closed my eyes for about 15 minutes when they popped open because my phone screen went off. I rolled over to check my phone and it was Drey.
Lunch Buddy: Brad one more thing.
Me: Yes Drey ?
Lunch Buddy: Will you be my bestfriend?
Me: Of course I will. Now get some rest Drey.
Lunch Buddy: Alright, Goodnight Bradley (:
Me: Goodnight Audrey (:
I locked my phone and rolled over once again. I laid my head on the cool side of my pillow and slowly became lethargic. It took me a while until I went into a deep sleep.
8 hours later, I woke up to the sound of my alarm. I rolled out of bed and walked across the room to my closet. I picked out black jeans with the knees cut out, a green sweater, and 1561 black Doc Martens. I hopped in the shower and washed my hair. My Nirvana playlist was playing as I got out of the shower. I wrapped the towel around my waist and walked into my room so I could get dressed. I dried off and got dressed. I put my favorite necklace back on along with my bracelets and rings. I sprayed my favorite cologne and headed downstairs. I decided to let my hair air dry so it could get the full curl effect. I sat at the table and ate the bowl of oatmeal my mother made me.
"So Bradley, I talked to your Aunt Sarah." My mom said simply. I just looked at her with a mouthful of oatmeal. "She said she is getting you a tutor, and I fully agree that you need one. Why won't you try the tutoring idea?" My mom continued. I let out a huge sigh and just rolled my eyes as I swallowed the remainder of oatmeal in my mouth. "Do you hear me Bradley?" She said as I got up to put my bowl in the sink.
"Bradley Will Simpson, I know you hear me talking to you." My mom said with sterness in her voice. I stopped mid-walk and I looked at her.
" Mom , if I try this tutoring thing out , will you get off of my back?" I huffed out.
"Bradley, I just want the best for you sweetheart." My mom said as she pushed my hair out of my eyes to kiss my forehead. " I have to get going , I love you Bradley , and will you please try to pay attention in class today?" My mom asked with a soft expression on her face.
"Yes I will try , and I love you too mom." I said to her as she walked out. As she walked out, my dad walked in the kitchen. He grabbed a breakfast sandwich and a bottle of water. He had on a pair of blue basketball shorts with a white t-shirt and running shoes. I'm guessing he was on his way to the gym because it was his day off. He always went to the gym on his days off because he thought he was getting old and he wanted to stay in touch with his younger roots.
"Hey Bradley, I heard you and your mother talking, and I think it's absolutely important that they stay out of your school work." He said with a giant burst of laughter. I actually laughed with him, because I knew he wasn't serious.
"No but seriously, you need to get it together Bradley, we want to see you become something great, and without an education, you will be like every other dumbass person who didn't graduate from college." My dad said seriously. I just looked at him. I looked at the clock and saw that it was 7:35. I knew I had to get going in order to pick Audrey up on time.
"Okay dad, I'll try and all that good stuff." I said as I waved my hand in the air while walking to the door.
"I'm serious Bradley, you need to be focused!" He called after me. I slammed the door in response. I'm so tired of everyone telling me that I'm not going to be able to do anything with my life at the rate I'm going and honestly, it's either music or skating. I don't know which one it will be. I made sure my skateboard was latched to my bookbag when I walked down the driveway. I made my way to Audrey's house when I saw my dad in his car roll past me, he honked the horn , waved, then sped away. I chuckled and kept walking. I was playing Green Day in my earbuds until I came to Audrey's house. She lived in a brickhouse on a hill with a gate around it. It looked like her mom had a garden in the front beneath the porch. She also had a wooden and chains swing chair at the end of the porch and then little wooden seats. It complimented the house very well.
Me: I'm outside (:
Lunch Buddy: Okay , I'm coming.
A minute after she sent the text message she came out. She had on black ripped skinny jeans, a blue and white t-shirt, and black boots. Her hair was wavey, but it still flowed evenly. As she got closer she had a little bit of makeup on but it was natural colors. She looked gorgeous.
"Hand me your phone please. And don't unlock it, just tell me the passcode." She said as she held out her hand. I was in complete shock , because for one, I never thought she could be this demanding. I handed her my phone and she just looked at me. "What is your passcode?" She asked.
"5 6 3 2" I said slowly so she could type it in. I peeked over her shoulder to see what she was doing. She was changing her contact name. She changed it to 'Bestfriend'. She smiled as she finished and I thought it was purely adorable.
"Hand me your phone Drey." I said as I stuck out my hand. She put it in my hand and I waited for her to tell me her passcode.
"1 4 3 2" she said at the same pace I did. I went to her contacts and changed my name. I changed it to ' Bestfriend '. I handed her phone back and smiled.
"Shall we get going?" I asked.
"Yes we shall." She said as a giant grin crept on her face. We started walking towards the school. James, Connor, and Tristan tagged along as well. We were all singing along to Justin Bieber. I don't even know why , Audrey just asked if we had it, and James was the only one with all of his albums on his phone. I just laughed because we all looked like a bunch of idiots.
I'd wait on you forever and a day
Hand and foot
Your world is my world
Yeah
Ain't no way you're ever gon' get
Any less than you should
I actually started to like that song. We finally got to the school. We had 10 minutes before the bell rang so we just sat in the parking lot, listening to Fall Out Boy , to play off the Justin Bieber we were just listening to.
Audrey Pov
We got to the school with 10 minutes to spare, ao we just sat in the parking lot listening to Fall Out Boy.
"So Audrey we wanted to ask you something." James told me.
"Yeah , what is it Jah-Mez." I said followed with a couple chuckles from everybody else.
"We wanted to know if you wanted to officially become one of our bestfriends." He said with a laugh. I looked around at them and they all shook their heads in agreement.
"Sure." I said as I felt my face light up with a smile.
"Okay, so first, you need a skateboard. I have a old one in my basement I'll give it to you this weekend." Connor said as he pulled me into a hug and then released me.
"Alright , but I don't know how to ride a skateboard." I said.
"We will teach you. What are you doing this weekend?" Brad asked me.
"Well all I am doing is going to the movies with you and then nothing." I said as I laughed.
"Let's go to the beginners skatepark. It's only a 15 minute walk from the neighborhood." Tristan chimed in.
"Alright. What should I wear?" I asked.
"Just wear some comfortable clothes and shoes with enough grip." James said.
"Okay , I think I can do that." I said huffing out. Just then the bell rang. We all walked inside. We looked like a unit. We all had black pants, with some type of shirt or jacket, and black shoes.
James was wearing a blue shirt, with black skinny jeans, and black chuck taylors. Connor was wearing a blue and black Fall Out Boy with black jeans with the ankles rolled up, and he had black vans. Tristan wore a grey beanie with a green hoodie, black jeans, and black vans as well.
Everyone just stared. Everyone acted like they had something to say but didn't want to say it. We all looked at eachother as we went to my locker.
"What were they staring at ?" Brad asked.
"Hell if I know. Let's just go to class." I told them , they all nodded and walked away. I grabbed Brad's arm before he could walk away.
"Bradley, can you pay attention in class today? Seriously , I know you are tired of these speeches so I'm going to tell you this, if you don't get your shit together, I will tutor you my damn self." I said as I looked him in his big brown eyes.
"I'll try, Drey." He said softly. I could tell he was seriously going to try
"Alright Brad, I'll see you at lunch." I sighed and said as I pulled him into a hug.
"Okay Drey. Have a good day." He said as he pulled away and started walking.
"Alright have a good day." I yelled after him. I started walking towards to staircase to my first class of the day.
