Only Tears I'll Cry are for You
Bradin sat at home and didn't know how to make things right anymore. Watching TV didn't solve anything anymore, and it sure as hell doesn't help. Groaning, Bradin leaned his head back against the couch and tried to focus on the show but it wasn't working.
"Problem Brae" he heard Nikki laugh standing behind him. Shaking his head he moved the hair out of his eyes.
"I'm fine Nik just leave me alone" he told her trying to shrug her off. She came over and noticing something was really wrong came and sat beside him. "Come on tell me Brae" she leaned her head on his shoulder.
"Nik, you know that girl that I told you about at the skating rink, the pretty figure skater" Nikki nodded adjusting herself so that she was comfortable and looking at Bradin.
"Well I like her, a lot, and she hates my guts and she told me she doesn't want anything to do with me…Nikki I don't know what to do anymore I want her to know how I feel for real, I want her to know that I'm not lying when I tell her I love her, I mean all the kisses meant something, everything I said I meant it…how do I get her to listen!"
He put his head into his hands and felt like he wanted to disappear right there and then. He wanted to tell her that she was amazing person and that she was worth his time and that he wasn't going to hurt her like she thinks that there is a point in trying this.
"Bradin, tell her the truth, don't play these stupid games with her and make her think so damn much! TELL HER THE TRUTH!" she told him yelling at him and laughing a little bit.
"You're right" he told her and getting up he headed into his room to change. "Thanks Nikki!" he yelled down, Nikki laughed.
"Uh…no problem?" shrugging it off she got up and went to the kitchen to help Ava finish dinner and get everyone ready to eat.
Bradin got into his room and changed into his polo, white undershirt, and khaki shorts and headed out to the beach, around town, Hayden's house, anything. He had to find her.
Walking down he saw someone sitting on the beach, walking up to her he noticed it was Clarissa. Joining her, he sat down to see what's wrong and why she was so upset.
"Hey" she looked at him then looked back down at the water. "Bradin" he smiled,
"Hmm?" he waited to see why she was so upset, he wasn't looking for her he went to find Hayden but it'd have to wait.
"Clarissa, tell me please" he waited putting his hand onto hers. "Bradin for me to say this, it's not an easy thing…but you have to realize how much Hayden cares about you" he nodded. "It's not even fair for me to hide it anymore I just thought I'd have to tell you…please go talk to her…please" he nodded and leaning in to kiss her she pushed away.
"Go" he nodded and got up and left.
After walking for a while he was ready to give up. It was getting to be about midnight and Ava would be worried. Turning around he decided to head home through the promenade.
The wind was blowing pretty hard and as he wrapped the jacket he had on around himself he saw a person sitting on the fence by one of the cafés.
"Hayden!" he yelled running to her. She seemed frozen and he was glad he had found her finally. "What do you want, didn't we already take care of this" she hissed at him.
"Hayden just hear me out…you don't have to talk…" she interrupted him.
"No you listen to me! Bradin Westerly you are the biggest pretty boy…you think you're all that and that the world revolves around you! You see nothing in this world besides yourself and you're completely oblivious to how others feel...what anyone else knows or how anyone else's life is BESIDE yourself! You know nothing about my life Westerly, you don't know that my brother died in a car accident a few years ago, you don't know that I'm not from California originally and you don't even know my eye color or hell do you even know what car I drive"? She calmed down a bit and looked at him.
"Don't think you know everything when you don't…and don't pity yourself too much Bradin it'll get you nowhere" he sighed noticing she was right. He did sort of get too involved with himself and didn't realize that her life maybe wasn't all that easy.
"You're right Hayden" he got up and turning around left her. She felt a little bad because he didn't even try to defend himself instead just turned around and left.
"Wait…you wanted to tell me something…please, I want to hear your side" she smiled brushing her hair out of her eyes. Bradin noticed how if the moonlight hit them at just the right angle they looked like stars on her tanned face.
Sighing he decided on what to tell her about how he felt. After he started he realized it all poured out, everything, he told her everything.
"Hayden, ever had that feeling when if one day you don't see someone you feel like you miss them already, you don't want to lose them and they're not even yours…you kiss them and you feel like you're flying, you look at the sky and see their eyes…you hug them and feel like they joined with you like you melted together…that's how I feel about you…and I don't know why" he noticed she was about to cry.
"Hayden…why are you crying" he walked up to her and smiled wiping the tears from her eyes. "Someone on your mind" he asked looking at her, cocking his head a little sideways.
"Yeah" she nodded and barely mumbled the words. "Whoever it is this guy doesn't deserve your tears!" he moved her hair from her face.
After a few minutes of silence he turned around and was about to leave when she grabbed his wrist and stopped him.
"Bradin…the only tears I'll ever cry are going to be for you" he smiled and leaned down and kissed her, his heart jumping.
With one kiss, everything came back. All the memories, all the passion, the love and everything they felt for each other poured out.
"I'll never make you cry Hay, I promise" he kissed her again and wrapped her up in his arms.
"I love you Bradin" she told him not sure how he'd react with this.
"I love you too Hayden and I always have…" she looked down and played with the string on his jacket.
"What's wrong now…I thought everything was ok" she nodded, "I'm sorry…oh my god I'm sorry I never thought about what it would mean" she broke down tears pouring out of her eyes.
"Whoa, whoa, whoa, sorry for what?" he cupped her face in his hands making her look back up at him. He kissed her cheek. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong, everything I said…the picture…I didn't put the picture in but I know who did" he shook his head and laughed.
"I don't even care anymore, the only reason I loved that job is because every day I got to see your beautiful face!" he kissed her nose.
She laughed wiping away the tears. "There, that's better; now let's get you home before your parents yell and I'm already dead with Ava" he laughed rolling his eyes.
"You better go I'll find somewhere else to go besides home" he took her hand. "You're welcome to come over, no ones even awake I bet…and I'll have you out before they wake up just come please I want you to fall asleep in my arms" she was a little hesitant but followed him to his house.
After falling asleep Bradin smiled, for once everything in his life was good…everything was going like he wanted it to.
"I love you" he whispered. The only response he got was a slight moan and a squeeze on his hand as he held her.
