Chapter 7

The Pain Is Back

Brooke's POV

Joey took me upstairs and showed me a room with my old furniture in it.

"Joey thanks. For everything."

"No problem. I'm going to head back downstairs for dinner and we will decide something. I'll come tell you so you can get ready ok?"

"Okay."

Joey closes my bedroom door. I then lock it behind him. I get into my bed and lay down listening to my moms favorite song.

Hey there Delilah
What's it like in New York City?
I'm a thousand miles away
But girl, tonight you look so pretty
Yes you do
Times Square can't shine as bright as you
I swear it's true

Hey there Delilah
Don't you worry about the distance
I'm right here if you get lonely
Just give this song a listen
Close your eyes
Listen to my voice, it's my disguise
I'm by your side

Oh. It's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
Oh it's what you do to me
What you do to me

I then heard a knock at the door.

"Brooke?" I heard a voice say.

"Who are you?"

"It's Kate!"

"Kate?"

"Yeah! Do you remember me?"

I sat there blankly. Who is Kate?

"Brooke?"

"Hmm?"

"So?"

"No. I don't remember you. I know no one here besides my family and that man..."

"The guy on the hill?"

"Yeah....."

"You seemed friendly there." She laughs.

"I don't remember what happened but I remember him. I don't know how."

"Hmm. Can I talk with you in your room?"

"Haven't we already talked?"

"Yeah but-"

"I'm sorry. I'm just blank and need to think. Tell Joey I might not be at dinner for me ok?"

"Ok.." She trailed off.

I felt her presence leave.

Once they all left for dinner I talked to Michelle about this whole ordeal. She made me feel calm and not so stressed out. I was totally uncomfortable here. I decided that I was going to get a job and raise money to go back home. I love my family but I just feel totally uncomfortable here I just don't know why. I feel different.

I decided to take a walk. I looked around the beach and saw no one there and the sun started setting. Then I felt someone touch my shoulder. I turned around and saw my

Mother.

"Mom?" I stood there stunned.

"My little Brooklyn. Your so grown up. I've missed you."

"Mom I thought you die-"

"Brooke I was told I could have died in the hospital a day later and your father must of thought I died. I did too. I wanted to see you guys but then I couldn't find you. I was in New York you know."

"Mom.."

"Brooke it's okay. I saw on YouTube, the website where your dad used to post videos, that you were on the cover of a news article in Florida. I was so happy and came here to see you, your brother Joey, your sister Maddie, and your father."

"Mom you are okay. Your alive."

I hug her and we talk on the shore line.

-:-

"My goodness! Where has our time gone?"

"Oh no! Everyone should be back from dinner!"

"Well let's go to the house of yours and see your siblings and your father. I can't wait to see them!"

"Are you sure about that?"

"Yes I'm sure. Now let's go!"

-:-

As we headed towards the door I held my moms hand tightly. I saw Joey open the door.

"M-Mom?" He stutters.

"Joey! My goodness how tall you are!"

"Mom it's you."

He hugs her. I see my dad come to the door.

"Joey who was it? Brooke? D-Delilah.."

"Preston it's you it's really you."

"Your alive."

"Your safe... I missed you."

"I missed you too."
