Reunited: Chapter 6 – Advice and The Phone Call
Once Bradin & Marissa arrived home, Bradin went into his room, and Marissa was bombarded with questions from Lindsay.
"What happened? Who was that girl?"
"I'll tell you later, Linds. Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go help Nikki pick out an outfit for her date with Cameron on Friday. Marissa said, walking towards the stairs and leaving her sister curious.
"Ok, I'm stuck between these two," Nikki said pointing to two outfits sprawled across her bed.
"Hmm, I'd go with the red halter and the denim mini skirt." Marissa said, pointing to the outfit on the left side of the bed."
"Yeah, I kind of liked that one a little more, too. I just needed another opinion. Thanks, Marissa."
"Your welcome, I'll see ya later." Marissa said, and walked downstairs to Bradin & Cameron's room.
She walked into the room, and saw Cameron doing something on the computer, and Bradin was nowhere to be seen.
"Hey"
"Hey, Marissa. What's up?"
"Have you seen Bradin?
"Yeah, he said he was going down to the beach."
"Thanks, see ya later." Marissa said, walking out of the room.
"No prob. See ya." Cameron called after her.
Marissa walked down to the beach looking for Bradin. After a few minutes of searching, she found Bradin sitting down in the sand talking on his cell phone. She started walking over to him. Bradin was talking to one of Marissa's best friend's from Kansas, Alyson. Apparently, Marissa had given Alyson Bradin's cell phone number for emergencies. He heard someone walking, and turned around to see Marissa walking towards him.
"Oh, here she is now." Bradin said, handing Marissa his cell phone.
"Who is it?" Marissa whispered.
"Alyson. She said it's important."
"Hello?"
"Mari…" The connection was lost.
"Hello? Alyson are you there?" Marissa looked at the screen on the phone, and it read 'Call was Lost.' She sighed in frustration and said, "Damn service, the call was lost. Oh, well, I'll just call her tomorrow. What are you doing out here in the dark anyway?" Marissa asked.
"Nothing, really. Just thinking about school tomorrow, and making the surf team."
"Bradin, you're going to make it. Don't even question it. If I could, I would bet you a million dollars that you will make it." Bradin laughed, as did Marissa.
"Thank you."
"For what?"
"For always being there for me, supporting me 24/7." Bradin explained.
"Well, you do that for me, so of course I would do the same for you." Marissa said, smiling; Bradin returned the smile. They emerged into a hug, pulled apart, and just looked out into the ocean. The whole Alyson calling Bradin thing was starting to get to Marissa.
"Wait," she started.
"What?" Bradin asked, confused.
"I told Alyson only to call your phone in an emergency. You said it was important. Oh my god, Bradin, what if something happened?" Marissa explained nervously, her tone rising.
"Babe, don't worry. Everything's fine, I promise." Bradin said, giving her a reassuring hug. "Are you sure? How do you know, Brae?"
"Because as long as you're with me, everything will be perfect."
"Aw, now that deserves a kiss." Marissa said, bringing her & Bradin into a long and passionate kiss. Bradin's cell phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Bradin? Where are you?" His Aunt Ava asked.
"I'm at the beach with Marissa."
"Okay, be home soon. It's a school night."
"Yeah, don't remind me. We'll be there in five. Bye" Bradin said as he flipped his cell phone shut. "Let's go, it would suck to get grounded before school even starts."
"Okay."Marissa started. "We'll finish this later," she whispered in his ear, and winked at him. Bradin just smirked and gave her a quick kiss before they left the beach to go home.
Ok, we know it was really short, but we promise we'll make the other chapters as long as we can! I (Marissa) was reading through this chapter and when Bradin says "Because as long as you're with me, everything will be perfect" is kinda likea line in the Summerland theme 'Cause as long as you're with meeverything will be alright.'lol Please R&R! xoxo
