You and Brett had been together for months and despite the fact that he could be volatile sometimes and quite demanding, you worked well together there were times when you fought but it was never anything too big but your first fight was literally around the corner and it all stemmed from a Lacrosse game.
You were sitting on the bleacher before the game with a textbook in your lap and a highlighter in the other, you were highlighting all the proper information for the upcoming test because you knew the Brett wasn’t going to do it for himself. You heard someone coming up the steps and assumed that it was going to be Brett but when you looked up you saw that it was Liam. “Hey, Liam.” You smiled and he smiled sitting next to you.
“What are you doing?” He asked.
“Oh me and Brett have a test in a few weeks just preparing him for his late night cramming the night before.” You answered.
“What test?” He asked.
“Oh Chem.” You answered as you continued highlighting everything that he needed.
“I wish Hayden would do that for me.” He mumbled.
“Unfortunately for the both of you, your aways out chasing the shadows out of this town.” You answered and he nodded in agreement.
“Well, I got to go see ya.” He waved and you nodded giving him a wave before going back t the book.
It was after the game the problem arose because Brett hadn’t spoken to you since he left the pitch, you thought it was because he lost and so you left him to his brooding but when you walked into the house you found that it was something very different. “You’re really not going to say something?” He asked and you looked at him.
“What?” You asked.
“About what you said to Liam?” He asked.
“What are you talking about?” You asked.
“Doesn’t matter, if you want to push yourself around do what you want.” He glared and your eyes widened.
“Push myself around?” You asked.
“I know that you like him, even when he went to Devenford,” Brett explained and you shook your head.
“Nothing happened.” You glared.
“That’s exactly what he said, did you guys figure this out before he walked away?” Brett asked.
“What?” You asked the tears now falling down your face. “So you’re accusing me of cheating?” You asked and he looked at you. “Okay… Well, I guess I should leave then.” Brett reached out for you realising his mistake as soon as the prospect of you leaving hit him but you were far too quick, you climbed into your car and drove away before he could get a word in.
Brett didn’t see you for the next few days and that worried him, the only thing that he had was the textbook that you had left for him that day. It was in the back of his car with a little note.
I know you’ll leave it till the last minute
I love you, baby.
Brett hated what he had said to you, he was only angry because of the Lacrosse game and needed somewhere to put it but that should never have been you. "You know that you are going to have to fix this,“ Lori said from the door of his bedroom.
"What?” He asked.
“I can’t take you moping around anymore… Go fix it,” Lori ordered.
Brett found himself in front of your house much sooner than expected, he knew that your parents were out of town so the only person that was home was you, he knocked on the door and waited for you to answer. “What?” You asked as you opened the door.
“(Y/N) I’m sorry.” He said.
“For what?” You asked.
“For accusing you of cheating, for calling you a liar and for lowering your standards.” He said the last part with a small smirk on his face and you opened the door a little wider and he saw that you were wearing one of his shirts, that he had left there.
“Come in.” You stepped to the side and he walked through you closed the door but when you turned around he was really close.
“I missed you.” He said softly lifting his hands to rest on your waist moving one up to your face.
“I was scared that you weren’t.” You whispered and he shook his.
“I will always miss you.” He said pressing you against the door lowering his head to yours. “Always.” He said before connecting your lips.
