The disclaimer to this is a bit more difficult now. As you might know, I was in London at the Soccer Six to see the guys play football and got my pics and some autographs. So now I can’t say “Never met them, never talked to them.” And yes, I’m still squeeing like a squeeing thing two days later. But since I do not really KNOW Bradley, I do not know what’s going on in his mind. I do not know what was going on after they all left the pitch. I do not know if he was there with someone. I do not know if he got any calls or texts later. (But wouldn’t I wish to know?) So yeah, they played, they lost the semi final and they all were sweethearts for patiently signing stuff and smiling for pics.

Everything else in this only ever happened in my head. Which is a scary place as you know.





Soccer Six

Bradley was really pissed. They’d lost their semi-final in the Soccer Six because of some stupid individual mistakes, some unfairness from the other team and an absolutely blind referee. Of course he congratulated the others on their win but it took him a moment to calm down and find his professional self before he could go and face the fans again. He knew that they hadn’t really come to see them play, no matter what they said.

So he put his photo face on, smiled into cameras, signed pictures and programs and just did his job.

Later, when they all had showered, got dressed and stood together to discuss the day (mostly the crazy fans), Bradley felt a pang of loneliness. Everybody was with friends or family. But the person he wanted to be with most now wasn’t there.

Just then, his mobile rang. He smiled and his bad mood vanished immediately when the display said COLS and a familiar voice asked “How did it go?” when he picked up the call.

Well, after a shite day a call from COLS would be just what Bradley needs.

A call from COLS would really cheer anyone up!

Well exactly so!

Who else could it possibly be???

Awww, so sweet of COLS to call. No doubt it would have made Bradley very happy ;P

On another note, I am totally jealous of you seeing the Merlin team play and am now tempted to look at all the videos and pics of Soccer Six 2012 I can find *must resist urge, need to do work*

Yep, he totally does.

Considering I live in Australia, I highly doubt I will get a chance, but I'll live. Hehe, tell that to my boss and my supervisor at uni. I'll be glad to see the end of my thesis I have been writing for far tooooo long *sigh*

Really? Colin in Aus? How did I miss that?...*googles*...ah, he was in a different state in the busiest month of my year. Maybe he will bring Bradley with him next time and I'll hear about it before it happens. I did eventually meet Tom Felton afterall :P

So interesting because the first pics I saw of Bradley he looked not so happy. Then later I saw more posted and he looked happier. But I don't know, something seemed off to me.

So now I think I understand it more, at least a little, lol.

Thanks for posting. That was a great read! And lucky you for getting to go!

Awwww! I like to think that's what happened. :) Among many options.

WOW That must have been awesome, on another note a call from COLS would make anyone's shitey day better. Well done. Very cute ♥ :) *hugs*

Aww, I love how Colin knew to call at just the right time. This was adorable!

(Also, I am so envious of you right now, EEE!)
