Till Death (A Bruno Mars Fanfiction)

Chapter 92

"You can stop saying how shitty he was, Joe." she answered flopping on the couch.

"Yeah. Alright." he said sitting down next to her. "So, the funny thing is...I've never seen you so drunk that you aren't able to do anything..." he said smiling at her.

"Yeah. I know." she said not reacting in any particular way. "Can I just go to sleep?"

"Yeah. Just go to sleep." he responded reaching for a blanket that was on the floor covering her up.

"I like the way you smell." she said half asleep moving her body into his arms finding more space within his chest than she ever had when with Bruno. I don't know if I'll remember this in the morning, but it's not so bad. She thought to herself drifting to sleep.

In what felt like a few minutes she was waken up by the sound of crackling and the smell of bacon in her kitchen. She tried to ignore the smell dreaming about eating at a restaurant and talking about going shopping. Her dream quickly turned when she heard a voice in the background singing. Opening her eyes she sat up turning her body seeing Joseph standing at the stove without a shirt on turning the bacon. "What the hell are you doing?" she asked causing him to drop a piece of bacon.

"Making breakfast." he said turning around to look at her starting to laugh at her hair.

She knew exactly what he was laughing at jumping up from the couch. "Don't laugh at my hair." She ran into the bathroom looking in the mirror quickly throwing her hair into a bun after going to the bathroom and washing her hands.

"Hey beautiful." Joseph said hearing her walk out into the small living room.

"Good morning." she said wrapping her arms around his waist kissing his cheek.

"Oh, and the AMAs came out while you were asleep. You were nominated for four."

'I what?" she asked letting go of him. "Why didn't you wake me up?"

"What's a couple of hours? You're fine." he answered shrugging his shoulders.

"Yeah. I guess." she said reaching for her phone to see all the messages she had gotten seeing Bruno's name pop up at the very top

Congratulations, Mims. You deserve the world.

"Did he get nominated for anything?" she asked.

"Don't know. Don't care." he answered handing her a plate with two tortillas with bacon and eggs inside.

"Ugh. You're no help." she said biting into her breakfast. "But right now I don't care. This tastes so good."

While Naomi was asleep on the couch with Joseph wrapped around her Bruno laid on his couch with Geronimo wrapped on top of him. He was waken up by his phone buzzing. "Ughhh." he moaned reaching for the phone. "Hello?"

"Yo, wake up. I know you broke up with Nay, but wake up. You just were nominated for three AMAs." Brandon said to him.

"Oh. Wow. Yeah. Oh." Bruno said stretching to wake up seeing that Grey's Anatomyhad been playing on his TV all night. Damn. He thought "What about Naomi?"

"Of course you would ask. She's nominated for four." Brandon said. "I assume Kayla has called her."

"Yeah. I'm sure she has." Bruno said sighing. "I mean. Yeah. Okay. Well I guess I have to get up now."

"Okay, Brunz. Don't wallow too much." Brandon told him.

"Yeah. I'll try." he said wandering toward his backyard to let the dog out. As he closed the door he heard something fall on the ground and a soft voice reacting.

"Damnit." he heard Maggie's voice in the background.

"Could you not?" Bruno said a bit frustrated by her presence.

"Hey, you're the one thinking about it. I wouldn't be here if you weren't thinking about it." Maggie said.

"So all I have to do is stop thinking about her and you and then it will all just go away?" he asked watching the dog run right through Maggie.

"Ouch." she smiled. "This isn't going to be easy, Bruno." she said ti him sitting down next to him.

"It's been 4 days. I mean. This should be easy." he said to her. "I'm Bruno Mars. I should be over this. I have Bedy."

"You do." Maggie said touching his arm. Instead of feeling nothing, he felt the warmth of an actual body sitting next to him. "Let it gooooo." she sang to him.

"Ugh." he groaned standing up to walk away from her.

"Was that a fight?" Maggie asked. "I'm dead. I should be walking away from you. Not the other way around."

"Whatever." Bruno said sarcastically.

"You're acting like your sisters." she said still sitting in the chair.

"Yeah. I know." he said ignoring her presence as he went to take a shower. When he got out of the shower he looked at his phone seeing a response from Naomi.

You deserve more, Brunz.

As he was reading he saw another message pop up from her.

I'm sorry, Bruno.
