Being Brad's Sister

31. Plan

Emma's pov

I stare at where Brad was standing two seconds ago unable to speak or move. All the colour drains from my face. They say that pavements are safe, well obviously not. Mum barges past me running straight over to my brother's body which is lying on the floor not moving. It suddenly hits me what has just happened.

The fight. Telling Brad to get out of my life. Brad walking away. The car. Brad being thrown over the car and into the road.

I glance over to the car which has smashed into a lamppost, the front of the car is smashed in and steam is leaving the bonnet of the car. I slowly look over to where my mum is crouched. My brother is lying on the cold hard floor. I scream as my legs give away. Tears stream down my face.

"Brad! No Brady please." I plea through my tears. "Brad I'm sorry," I cry as I pick myself up and run over to my brother. "Brad!" I scream as I grown closer. Everything seems to be going in slow motion, there is a high pitch ringing in my ears. The neighbours come running out of their houses to see what the commotion is and to help. When I reach my mum and brother, but Mum pushes me away.

"If it wasn't for you than Brad would still be okay. Look what you've done you ungrateful little cow. Get away from him and don't touch him before you make things even more worse."

"Mum I..."

"This is all your fault just because you are selfish and don't want to see your brother happy. He doesn't deserve a sister like you! I don't deserve a daughter like you and if your father was with me now he would agree. You have been moody ever since we told you about Brad touring. You’re always grumpy because Brad is successful and you aren't. You need to work for everything and not let it come to you on a plate by using Brad. He worked for suits you. Now everything could be at risk because of you. Not only have you hurt my son but you have hurt and possibly jeopardised the band. Did they even cross your mind in all of this or do you not care about them either?" Mum's words shock me. I knew she always favoured Brad because of The Vamps and everything but to say that to me is unfair. I know this was my fault but I don't always think about myself. Do I? That is a completely unfair comment!

"I don't always think about myself. I love my brother and you know I do." I defend myself.

"He isn't your brother." What?

"He is and you know it. We are related whether you like it or not I am sorry I am such a disappointment to you but that's life now stop worrying about me and worry about Brady!" 

“You can go and pack your bags. Get out of my house and leave us alone. I will tell Brad what you’ve done and I am sure he won’t care seems you have just told him to get out of your life! Well now you can get out of his, mine and your father’s.” I turn on my heels and walk away knowing I won’t get through to my mum when she is like this. Her precious baby is hut and that is all that she is worried about right now. I have an idea. I know that mum will try to poison Brad against me just like she had when we were younger so I need to let him know somehow that what she says isn’t true and I am sorry. I run upstairs and ring James while I grab a suitcase and start to pack some things. 

“Hello?”

“Mrs McVey, its Emma can I please speak to James?”

“Have you been crying? Are you okay?”

“Yes but I need to speak to James. It’s urgent.”

“Okay I’ll just get him for you.” She says before yelling James’ name. A few minutes later his voice rings through the speaker.

“Emma are you okay? Have you been crying? What’s wrong?”

“James I’ve messed up. Mum has kicked me out and Brad is hurt. Can I stay at yours for a night or two until I find somewhere to stay? You’re the first person I thought of and I really messed up. James I don’t know what to do.” I sob down the phone. Tears streaming down my cheeks staining my face even more.
