Cutting the engine, he unfastened their seatbelts and they got out of the car. “It wasn’t just the nice car” she sobbed, “He was just good at everything, nice hair, nice smile, nice big di-“
“Okay, that’s enough” He picked the key from beneath the porch plant. Once he opened the door, she walked inside.
“Where’s your cousin?” he asked her
“Her boyfriend’s house I guess” she stood by the door.
“Should I stay over?”
“Nope, you have stuffs to do” she waved him off “don’t worry, I’ll be fine”
“Goodnight”
“Good night best friend” she muttered as she slammed the door on his face. She was on her way to the living room when she slipped. The last thing she heard before submerging into darkness was the sound of shoes running towards h
Staying at the hospital was like hell to Brooklyn, she had only been there for like two days, and it already felt like forever. She was just glad that she was going to be discharged today, that was what the doctor said anyway. Tegan came in as early as seven in the morning with chocolates and flowers, apologizing for not visiting her sooner. He stayed with her till twelve pm before he dashed out, promising to be back an hour before her check out. Dr. James hadn’t visited her since last night, and it was almost time for her to go home. She stayed in the room waiting for Tegan, who was downstairs, taking care of the bills. She almost leaped off the bed when Dr.james walked in with Tegan, and they seemed to be in a serious conversation. “Hello Brooklyn,” he greeted her “I can see that you’re ready to leave” “Yes” she smiled. &nbs
They weren’t interested in making out just to prove a point, at least she wasn’t. They both agreed to just do the simple things like, hold hands, hook arms, a kiss on the cheek. It’s not like anyone would expect them to shove their tongue down each other’s throat just because they were dating. “You ready brook?” Tegan asked her, his voice filled with excitement.“Let’s get this over with “she muttered. It took her approximately four hours to decide on what to wear. She ended up with a deep green cocktail dress and Tegan dressed to kill. She was sure he probably spent the same hours she did to pick out what to wear,the connection in the party can really boost his career. They both agreed that there was certainly no need to lie about his career or anything else, apart from the fact that they were dating of course. The few
“Anyways, why aren’t you at your party?” “Because, I don’t really care about parties".he shrugged.“Why did you throw one then?” she asked, and he took a step towards her.“Once in a while you need to throw one, it is kind of a necessity".She rolled her eyes.“Wow, it must be really had” she said “just in case you didn’t notice, I was being sarcastic". He laughed. It was rich and deep, just as she remembered.“You haven’t changed you know” he said, taking another step towards her. He was much closer now, and the fact that she was alone with him made her even more tense. Her stomach were literally in knots.“It is getting really cold out here,” she said, wrapping her arms round herself to make it more believable “I think I’m going to head back inside".
Brian adjusted beside her. She wanted the truth, and she was surely going to get it. “Brooklyn stop acting ignorant, you damn well know the reason I invited you here”“And that is?”“To see you of course” he answered, placing her hands in his. He slowly brought it to his lip, and kissed it. She knew that giving in to this would only push her deep into whatever was going on between them. Her anger for him was still there, but yet she was reluctant to pull away. She felt herself leaning into him.“Brooklyn! Are you out here?” Tegan’s voice pulled her out of whatever spell she had been on, and she quickly pulled away. She shifted away from him and scrambled to get up, but sits back due to the pain in her ankle.“Brook?” Tegan called again, as he walked towards the porch stairs, leading to the beach.&ld
After the second ring, her phone dinged, indicating a new message.Kamryn : why aren’t you picking my calls? Kamryn: is everything alright? Kamryn: I’m on my way. She groaned when she read the last message, exactly what she was trying to avoid. Brian was on his way to her house, he was going to see her bed reddened, and he was going to make a big fuss about. Just great. She threw her phone on the other side of the bed just when Tegan walked in.“Hey, what got you panties in a twist?” he asked as he sat beside her.“Brian is on his way”
She had been laying around in bed all day, and its has been days after the bathroom accident. The leg had relieved her slightly ,she did not really need her cane anymore...not much anyways.It was mid noon and she was really hungry. She hadn't eaten the whole day because she didn't feel like...plus Tegan and Mira weren't around to pester her about her poor eating habit either. She slowly limped down the stairs, heading towards the kitchen.The quickest thing to fix was a cereal, and she really wasn't feeling like a chef at the moment...so she settled for just cereal. When she was done fixing herself a bowl, she limped her way to the living room and settled herself on the couch. She was halfway done with her meal when her phone rang. She checked...it was Tegan. He was probably just calling to check up on her. "Hey Tee, what's up?"
Little over a week later, Aaron found himself walking into a room where Brooklyn was waiting to be checked. He just got back from his home town and he had not even had the time to get in touch with her.“Hello Brooklyn” he greeted cheerfully as he sat down ,her file in his hand. “I thought I told you no more falling?”She smiled “ wasn’t my doing this time doc".He took a little moment to check her out, she was dressed in a short floral dress. She even looked more beautiful with a little touch of makeup. She almost caught him staring.“So,it says here that you sprained your ankle correct?”he asked.She nodded."How come I did not notice it the other day? He asked, his brows furrowed.She shrugged "probably it was because I was sitting"."Okay" he said, eyeing her warningly. She was acting weird, almost like she was mad at him. “So how are we feeling today?”“Fine I th
Brooklyn eyes went wide at this revelation,she had no idea what to say.Based on what she had gotten from their few conversations, Aaron seemed like a nice guy, and he was extremely good looking too. She couldn't deny the fact that she was a little bit attracted to him ,but she knew deep down that she still had strong feelings for Brian no matter how she tried to deny it. Brian was her first everything. Her first love,her first kiss, and the list goes on and on. After Brian, she had been too hooked up on the pain from her past that she never thought of giving anyone a chance again. It was clear to her that Brian was trying to rekindle what they had,but no matter how deeply she still loved him,she knew she would be a big fool to give her heart to him again...not after he messed with her heart the last time. she had been thinking a lot lately, and maybe, just maybe if she got into a relationship with someone else,she might gradually fall in love with the person..and the love she
