MY BEST FRIEND , MY PROTECTOR

HURT AND BROKEN

TEN MONTHS LATER

FLASHBACK BEFORE BGS TOUR STARTED

BRANTLEY'S POV

I WAS A VERY HAPPY MAN BECAUSE I HAD MY ANGEL CLARISSA FINALLY . THESE PAST FEW MONTHS WE HAVE BEEN TOGETHER HAVE BEEN LIKE A DREAM COME TRUE .

AFTER SHE SAID THAT SHE WOULD LET ME BE HER MAN I MADE IT MY MISSION TO SHOW HER HOW MUCH I REALLY MEANT IT WHEN I SAID I LOVED HER AND CLARISSA WAS MY EVERYTHING . THAT LIL VIXEN HAD ME IN KNOTS SINCE I SAW HER IN HER WEDDING DRESS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH KOLBY .

I KNEW I HAD TO LEAVE SOON FOR MY TOUR BUT I DIDN'T WANT HER TO STAY BEHIND EITHER . SO I MADE ARRANGEMENTS WITH JUDGE JONES TO WHERE SHE COULD GO WITH ME ON TOUR . SHE ONLY HAD TO CALL THE JUDGE ONCE A WEEK TO CHECK IN .

I WAS HAPPY MY LIFE WAS FINALLY GETTING BETTER , AND ALL BECAUSE OF MY ANGEL CLARISSA .

NOTE TO SELF :
THANK SARAH FOR SENDING CLARISSA TO JEFFERSON WHEN SHE RAN FROM MORGAN AND HER WEDDING FROM HELL .

I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT LATELY IVE BEEN THINKING A LOT ABOUT TAKING THE NEXT STEPS AND MAKING CLARISSA MY WIFE .

I MEAN SHE'S ALREADY STOLEN MY HEART AND SOUL . SO WHY NOT ? PLUS WE BOTH WANT A FAMILY OF OUR OWN.

SO I HAD SARAH GO WITH ME WHILE I HAD KOLBY AND MAMA KEEP MY ANGEL BUSY WHILE SARAH AND I WENT AND PICKED A RING FOR MY ANGEL CLARISSA .

I WAS GONNA MAKE HER THE HAPPIEST WOMAN IN ALL THE WORLD . SHE HAD BECOME MY WHOLE WORLD IN SUCH A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME ..... I JUST HOPE SHE SAYS YES AND I DON'T SPOOK HER MORE BY MY PROPOSAL .

CLARISSA'S POV

I WAS HAPPY THESE PAST FEW MONTHS BEING WITH BRANTLEY AND BEING HIS GIRLFRIEND . THAT MAN WAS PURE ALPHA MALE AND HE KNEW IT .

I'M NOT GONNA LIE AND SAY EVEN BEFORE I MET HIM AND KOLBY I THOUGHT HE WAS HOT AS HELL AND SEXIER THAN MORGAN EVER WAS .

SARAH ALWAYS TALKED ABOUT HER FRIENDS BUBBA AND KO . LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT IT WAS THE FAMOUS GILBERT BROTHERS .

NOTE TO SELF : REMIND ME TO THANK SARAH FOR SENDING ME TO JEFFERSON . WITHOUT HER DOING THAT I'D HAVE NEVER MET BRANTLEY AND KOLBY . MOST OF ALL BRANTLEY .

TODAY WAS AN OFF DAY FOR THE TOUR SO BRANTLEY TOLD ME I CAN HANG OUT WITH KOLBY A WHILE SINCE HE WOULD BE BUSY WITH SOUND CHECKS AND MEDIA AND MEET AND GREET STUFF.

I WAS GETTING READY TO TEXT KOLBY WHEN MY NEW BEST FRIEND WALKED IN ALL SMILES MAKING ME SMILE IN RETURN ......

HEY BEAUTIFUL BEST FRIEND AND PARTNER IN CRIME . KOLBY SAYS HUGGING ME AND KISSING THE TOP OF MY HEAD LIKE HE HAS SINCE I STARTED BEING A COUPLE WITH HIS BIG BROTHER .

HEY PARTNER AND BEST FRIEND AND BESTEST LITTLE BROTHER . WHATS GOT YOU ALL SMILES AND SO HAPPY ?

I DONT KNOW CAN'T I JUST BE IN A GOOD MOOD FOR ONCE ? BUT I'M JUST HAPPY BECAUSE I GET TO SPEND TIME WITH YOU AND URK THE HELL OUTTA B ...
KOLBY SAYS SMILING BIGGER KISSING MY CHEEK . MAKING ME BLUSH.

WHY KOLBY GILBERT IF YOU KEEP THAT UP PEOPLE WILL START TALKING SAYING I'M WITH THE WRONG GILBERT ..... I SAY SMILING

SO LET THEM TALK . I DONT MIND AT ALL BECAUSE BETWEEN YOU , BG , AND ME WE KNOW THE TRUTH AND WHO HOLDS YOUR HEART . IT'S MY BIG BROTHER , AND HE LOVES YOU JUST AS MUCH YOU KNOW ANGEL .....

I KNOW THAT KOLBY . JUST LATELY I DON'T KNOW THINGS HAVE BEEN DIFFERENT LIKE BRANTLEY IS HIDING SOMETHING IMPORTANT .....

I DONT KNOW IF I COULD HANDLE ANOTHER HEARTBREAK KOLBY . I'M NOT AS STRONG AS EVERYONE THINKS I AM ANYMORE ...... I SAY LOOKING DOWN AND AWAY BITING MY LIP AND CHEEK TO KEEP THE TEARS AT BAY AND FROM FALLING .
