My Neighbor || Brooklyn Beckham

Chapter 28

*Laura🇧🇪*
I wake up at 8am and see no Brooklyn next to me. His family must have already left. Oh wait, he said they were leaving at 6am. I chuckle to myself, and get out of bed. I quickly put on black Nike shorts, and my Chelsea warmup jacket. I make my way down the stairs, and find Brooklyn watching a football match on TV.
"Hey," I say. He turns off the tv and kisses my forehead.
"Good morning, beautiful." he smiles. He takes my hand and leads me into the kitchen.
"You made all of this?" I ask, kinda shocked. I stare at bacon, eggs, pancakes, and chocolate milk.
"I'm always going to make your favorite on our anniversary," he says. He fixes me a plate, slides it to me, and then he proceeds to sit next to me.
"It's awful sweet of you," I say. He just nods and we eat in a very comfortable silence.
"So, I have plans for us the rest of the day," he says. "Do you need to shower?"
"Yeah. Do you?" I ask. He nods. "Then let's take one together." He smirks at me.
"Haven't done that for a few months," he says, cleaning his plate. I hand him mine and he washes it, too. I go upstairs and run water for the shower. I undress and see Brooklyn staring.
"You act like you haven't seen this." I laugh.
"It's just beautiful," he says, coming back to reality. "Each time it gets more beautiful." I roll my eyes.
We take a nice and long 30 minute shower.
"So, what's on the agenda?" I ask, slipping on a Real Madrid jersey.
"First, I thought you might want to go to the zoo," he says. I jump with joy as I put on black jean shorts. I do my hair in a braid, and basically rush Brooklyn out the door. We pay for our tickets, walk in, and Brooklyn drags me to the lions. We go to a few more before realizing it's noon.
"Let's get something for Lys," I say, as we head for the gift shop.
"Okay. What do you want to get her?" he asks, looking at stuffed animals.
"How about, a panda bear?" I suggest. He grabs the biggest one and smiles.
"Brooklyn, that's 30 dollars," I say. He laughs.
"I have more money than anybody here," he says. I roll my eyes jokingly, and we go to pay for it. We load into the car, and he drives me to the beach.
"Let part 2 commence," he says. He grabs a basket, and signals me to follow him. I follow him to a private little spot.
"What's in that?" I ask. He pulls out a bowl of mac and cheese, bag of pretzels, box of strawberries, and a bag of chocolates. I peck his lips, an she smirks to himself.
"I do what a lady pleases," he says. We dig in, and leave at 2 o'clock.
"Where now?" I ask.
"Back to the house for some relaxation," he answers. My phone beeps.
Victoria✌🏻️: Alyssa loves water world here😂 she got David to go on the big drop ride

Victoria✌🏻️: aw 😊 we loving having u in our family!!
Me🙌🏻: I like being in it. tbh: I never thought Brooklyn and I would last after I went to Manchester
Victoria✌🏻️: no offense, but I don't think anyone did // we were all so scared when Brook would hang out with your best friends, he might hit on them
Me🙌🏻: I thought he might too...glad he didn't
Victoria✌🏻️: we all were...we only ever liked you 😘 all of his other girlfriends wanted fancy things
Me🙌🏻: only person I ask for things from is my family
Victoria✌🏻️: we see David // talk to u soon
I slide my phone into my back pocket and look at Brooklyn.
"Was I the only one that thought we were gonna last?" he asks. Oh, he saw my conversation. He looks at me, as we pull up to the house.
"I was going away for Manchester," I say. "I wasn't sure which magazine I'd see you on next." I sigh and he lifts my chin up.
"I know you didn't mean to think that," he says. "It's natural that anyone would. I'm just glad we did pull through." I hug him.
"I love you, Brooklyn," I say.
"Love you, too, Laura." he smiles.

*three months later*

Brooklyn convinced me to let him to go this bar. I just know he is going to get drunk and I shouldn't have let him go...especially to the one he went to. I hear him come back at the house, currently it's 2am. But I hear a girl laughing with him. Yep, I'm probably leaving him. You want to know why? Because he keeps getting seen with this one girl.
"You're really sexy, you know that?" Brooklyn tells the girl.
"Haha, yeah right," she says. "What're you going to do about that girl you're with now?"
"Divorce her, most likely," he says. "I like you a lot better." That's it, I'm leaving. Eden already knows I might be coming back and now he hates Brooklyn. I pack up my bag with all my clothes, and sit down to order myself a plane ticket. Luckily, there's still one available for tonight to London. I book it, and go to the top of the stairs. He practically has the girl naked already, it's sick. I open our room window and throw the bag out. I kiss Alyssa's head.
"Mommy?" she asks.
"Alyssa, I need you to listen very carefully. You might never understand why I'm leaving, but as soon as I go outside, you need to call for your daddy," I say.
"Where are you going?" she asks.
"Just away," I say. "Now can you do what I ask for?"
"Yes, mommy," she says. "I wuv you."
"I love you to Alyssa." I smile at her. I go over to the window, and prepare to jump. Alyssa looks at me. "Just call for your dad." I jump out and hear Alyssa screaming for Brooklyn. I text Eden.
Me🙌🏻: I'm on my way to London. can u pick me up? xxx
Eden👏🏻: you woke me up! but yeah, I can get you. I assume it's the 6 hours?
Me🙌🏻: yeah, and it's 7am for you! u should be up!
Eden👏🏻: now that you're free, you should plan for the Belgium Women's team
Me🙌🏻: the coach contacted me, and said I have a spot if I want it
Eden👏🏻: take it
Me🙌🏻: will do. see ya soon
Jessica and her boys moved to London last month, and she's letting me stay with them. I'm going to be playing for Chelsea again because their coach also offered me a spot. I really just need to forget everything that happened with me and Brooklyn. It was all a mistake, and I should have stayed out of it. I need to find someone with better interest and just move on. Let's just pretend that Laura Beckham never existed, that there never was a Brooklyn and I.

*Brooklyn🇬🇧*
What the heck have I done?! I was just so drunk and I didn't know what I was going. Now she's gone...the only one I ever felt real love with. And I was a jerk. I need to explain what happened, and just see her again. My phone beeps...Laura.
Laura💞: let's just pretend that you and I never existed...I mean as a couple. u r no longer welcome in my world.
And that was it.
