The colour purple (girlxgirl)

Chapter 5

**Violets POV still**

We arrived at the house 20 minutes later and strangely enough, all the lights were on. We retrieved our new boards. I locked my car and pulled out my keys to the house as we approached the door and casually unlocked it. I let Brooke go first and that's when I noticed her slight limp. I was about to say something but I was interrupted when 2 pairs of feet came barreling down the stairs toward us.

Her parents stood in front of us, hands on their hips and pissed expressions on their face.

"So where were you guys?" Brookes mum questioned us

I let Brooke handle her "well, at first we were at Starbucks, then we went to go get new boards and then Violet took me to this really cool skate park and then we went to go get food with some friends we met. and that's about it, please don't be mad at us, we really didn't mean to be late."

Jacob and Cath gave us both a smile and embraced us tightly." Ohh honey, We're so glad that you've already made friends and started to settle down. And Violet Hun, thank you for taking her out to have fun. I really do appreciate you making her feel at home here." she gave me another quick hug before getting engrossed in a conversation about our new friends. I looked around and when i realised that Zen was nowhere to be seen, I went to look for her.

Suprisingly, our room door was locked. It was never locked. So I pulled out my key and unlocked it. On the bed, Zen was straddling Toby with their faces attached.I coughed awkwardly to make them aware of my presence. They both spun their heads around to see me standing in the doorway. 

"Seems like you're getting along with your homework well!" I spat as I turned and began to walk away. Zen  leaped off Tobys lap and grabbed my wrist before I could bolt down the stairs.

"Get off me!!! You Fucking Traitor!!" I screamed as I tried to wrench myself away from her grasp.

"Why do you care? You broke up with him" she then said as we fell to the ground wrestling.

"Because he fucking cheated on me Zen. Not cool"  I retorted. she sat up straight and I did the same.

"I'm sorry, he was only supposed to be here to help me with my Science project and then things escalated." she said sincerily.

i was so pissed. She knew how much I really liked him, but he cheated on me with a bimbo from the cheerleading squad. Oh well, she can have him and I'll have Brooke.

"Right, whatever. Have fun in there, with HIM" i got up and stormed downstairs to Brooke's room.  

My phone was vibrating in my pocket like crazy. I knew it was her so I didn't even bother to look at it. Without knocking, i walked into Brooke's room only to see her propped up on her bed inspecting her now purple ankle. i gasped, hurried over to her and began to inspect the foot myself. It looked terrible, with it's blue and purple veins running down her foot.

"why didn't you tell me it was this bad? You could have broken it." i looked up at her. she was wincing at the slight pressure i was putting on it. she seemed perfectly fine earlier, but i guess she wasn't.

"Because i didn't want to worry you and everyone else. And plus, i didn't want to ruin today." she said looking down at the duvet.

"But you could've really hurt yourself. and how can you ruin my day when you basically made it?" i looked over to see her blushing.

"Don't move, i'm gonna go get the first aid kit" there was a first aid kit located in every bathroom and main living areas. so i managed to maneuver myself through the masses of boxes in my way and get to the bathroom. i found it right where it should be and made my way back to Brooke. she seemed more in pain now as she lay on her back and stared at the ceiling for comfort.

"This might hurt a little," i said before rubbing the alcohol over her grazed ankle. she squirmed and protested, letting tears drip down her face freely. she must have damaged herself really badly for her to be crying. i pulled out ankle brace that was in the kit and as gently as i could, strapped it onto her leg. she collapsed back in agony after i had done. i crawled up beside her and held her hand.

We stayed in silence for a while before she got curious

"not that i don't enjoy your company and all, but why are you here? i thought you were supposed to be hanging out with Aaliyah tonight."

" We sort of had an argument." I paused and then continued "When i walked into our room, she was sitting on my ex byfriends lap, sucking his face off" Brooke lifted my head so I was looking right into her eyes.

"You're welcome to stay here tonight if you'd like" she offered, giving me a hopefully look

" I wouldn't like to... I'd love to!!" we shared a toothy grin, still holding hands and looking straight into eachother's eyes. It wasn't even an awkward silene. it was the type of silence you had with someone who you're comfortable with.

Our phones went off simultaneously and we both decided to take peeks at them. Among all the texts from Zen, i had one text from tyler. i smiled at my phone before looking at Brooke.

"who was the text from?" i asked.

one word "zen"
