Just some Brolin drabble I wrote a while ago because I sometimes I see pictures of Colin and wonder how there would be any way Bradley's not in love with him.
Bradley and Colin met when they were both still slightly awkward. Colin more so than Bradley. Bradley thought Colin was a bit weird at first, but he soon learned to understand Colin’s jokes and his accent and his bizarre sense of humour. They were just a couple of weirdos when they were together. The bond between them grew and they spent months at a time together, filming long days, but never getting sick of each other.
Bradley thought it was pretty lucky to have such an amazing group of people to work with, but the only one he never really got annoyed with was Colin. How could anyone get annoyed with that boy?
There was a day when Bradley realized something though. He didn’t know why it hit him that day, and he didn’t know how long it had been there. He guessed it had been hidden as their friendship grew over the years, but one day during their non-filming months they had gotten together at a cafe. It was after they had ordered and after Bradley had fixed his tea, he looked up and saw Colin looking out the window. He was scruffy and looked nothing like that awkward boy he had first met, really. But it was still him, the only person he could truly be himself with. And it hit him, how could he ever not be in love with Colin? The idea of not being in love with Colin suddenly seemed ridiculous. He figured, of course, that it had always been there, under everything. But today, it had seemed to finally claw it’s way to the surface and reveal itself. Bradley laughed slightly to himself and Colin turned to look at him with his shiny dark hair and ridiculous grin. And they continued to have their lunch, but to Bradley everything felt a bit lighter and brighter.
