Why did this happen to me? Oh right cause I was stupid enough to take that drink.

Chapter 13

It's been 3 days since I sat out in the rain and I'm still sick, still running a fever on and off and STILL unable to be near my Elena. I groaned and threw my pillow across the room at the door. At that exact moment Tyler HAD to open it which almost got him hit.

"Seriously?!?!" He asked annoyed.

"I really wasn't aiming at you. I swear!" I told him shaking my head. He rolled his eyes and leaned against the door frame.

"What's you temperature?"

"I'm not a child Tyler."

He glared at me, causing me to sigh sadly.

Why can't we just fix this? I begged Tyler through my thoughts. "It's 101 again."

"That's it!" He snapped and left the room. "Get dressed." He ordered as he came back in clean jeans and t-shirt, with his keys in hand. 

I hoped out of bed confused as I headed to my door frame. "Why?" He stopped at the top of the stairs.

"Your parents are at work and they said if you are still running a slight fever then I'm supposed to take you to the doctors."

"I'm not going." I stated stubbornly.

He gave me a look that said 'you wanna bet?' I crossed my arms as a reply. Then suddenly he was picking me up and carrying me into my room.

"Tyler!" I screamed. "Put me down!!!!" And he did. He dropped me onto my bed and turned towards my walk in closet.

"Don't even dare." He growled as he grabbed once of my dresses and chucked it at me.

"How did you know I was going to run?"

"Uh because your Brooklynn." He told me in his 'duh' tone.

I crossed my arms and legs. "Well regardless I'm still not going so I'm not getting dressed. How's Elena?"

"Don't change the subject!" He snapped. "And if you won't get dressed yourself then I'll just have to do it for you." He said as he came to stand in front of me. I looked up at him shocked. "Brooky it isn't like I haven't seen you naked before."

I lashed out. My hand struck his cheek with full force causing his head to snap to the right side. I was breathing heavily as his head slowly turned the right way and he looked at me. A red hand print was visible on the side of his face.

"You really want to do this now?" I just kept my mouth shut. "Well why don't you just say every little thing you've been keeping back from me." Again I didn't say anything, just stared into his angry eyes. "Fine I'll start."

Tyler took a deep breath and pulled my desk chair over so that he could sit in front of me. "You have gotten on my last nerve. I've tried time and time again to be nice to you, but you just don't care. And you know what? I'm only here because of Elena. She IS my daughter after all and I didn't even know until a month ago. I didn't know that you were pregnant with my kids and I DON'T KNOW why you ran! I would have freaking helped your ass with the pregnancy!!! But no you had to be all bitchy and take my kids away from me! I mean COME ON! I never even got to know Micheal, I barley know Elena and I don't know you. I thought I did, but I guess you aren't that girl I once knew. Besides I wouldn't even be here if it wasn't for Elena being alive. I wouldn't be in your damn life and if you had come to me saying that you had my child, but they were dead....well I don't know what I would do then. And I've been thinking, maybe it is your fault that Micheal is dead. Maybe if you had let me be around he would be alive and in my life right now. So maybe it IS your fault."

Tears bubbled up in my eyes. "You don't mean that..." I whispered.

He stared at me hard in the face. "I do. I honestly wonder if it was YOUR fault my son is dead. It probably was."

I shook my head. "No, I-I did everything I could to make sure they w-were healthy...I-you...YOU'RE AN ASSHOLE!!!!!!" I screamed and tried to slap him again with my right hand, but he caught it so I took him by surprised and slapped him with my other hand. His fingers release the pressure from my wrist and I ran from the room. All I wanted was to be far away from him. Just as I rounded the corner into the living room I bumped into someone and fell to the floor.

"Oh I'm so sorry Brooks." Alec said as he helped me up.

"Brooky!" Tyler screamed as he ran down the stairs. "Please I'm sorry I didn't mean it I was just so mad and I..."

"Save it asshole!" I snapped and walked around Alec into the living room. Tears ran down my face even more when I saw Elena with Cassy. My daughter squealed happily once she saw me and tried to crawl over to me, but I shook my head.

What if it was my fault that Micheal was dead? I asked myself as I left the room and walked into my dad's office, locking the door safely behind me. What if I killed him without knowing it?

 I didn't know when I fell asleep on my dad's couch, but I do remember my dream.

"Why do you believe what he said?" A young boy asked.

"Believe who? Who are you?" I asked him and he walked over to hug me around my waist.

"Do you not recognize me mommy?" He asked with his chin on my stomach as he looked up at me. His arms still wrapped around me.

"Mommy..." I mumbled to myself. "Micheal?!?!" He smiled and I pulled his arms away from me only to drop to my knees and hug him. "Oh my baby!" I cried and he pulled away to look at me.

Micheal's finger's lifted to my cheek and wiped away a tear. "Please don't cry mommy, it makes me sad when I see you, sissy or daddy cry."

"Daddy cried?"

Micheal nodded. "He was crying when he woke up and you were gone, he cried the day you left home, he cried the night before you got sick and he's crying now."

"How do you know all this baby?"

"That doesn't matter mommy." He hugged me again. "Please don't be mad with daddy. He doesn't mean what he said about me dieing because of you. I didn't die because of you mommy, you did everything right. It was just....my time to go."

I hugged him tighter to me. "I love you baby."

"I love you to mommy, always. Oh and sissy. I love sissy and daddy. I love ALL our family." I laughed shakily.

"I miss you so much baby. I wish you were here." I said as tears slipped down my face.

"Mommy don't cry. I am there. I'm right here." He said and put his hand over my heart. I squeezed my eyes shut. "You have to let me go mommy. Live your life." I hugged him again as I woke up crying.

"I love you Micheal....I really love you baby boy, th...thank you." I sniffed and wiped my tears away. After a few deep breaths I left the room. No one was in the living room and so I made my way up stairs hoping to find Tyler up there, but I heard shouting coming from the kitchen.

.....What could be going on?

A/N: Okay I've been thinking...next chapter I will do something and then I will be writing a flash back of when Brooklynn first left. Just thought I'd say it now.
