Fixing Her ✅

Chris' Pov

I leaned against the wall waiting for Angelo to pop up again. He appeared with Alex by his side

"Come on Chris we'll come back in a few" I nodded and followed Angelo through the door

When we got back the hotel I was tired and disappointed in myself

"Wanna talk about it now?" I nodded and Angelo sat next to me

"I want her, I want Brie but she's making it so goddamn hard to get her"

"Why don't you just talk to her?" I shook my head

"Brie hates me. When I borrowed your conference room Andrea and I was talking about Brie and she told me that Brie's been hurt before and I want to know why and just hold her, just like when I did in the cemetery"

"Why were you at the cemetery?" He handed me a bottle of water from the night stand

"I saw her car outside the gates and I was curious, her mom is dead. She cried, I held her and she didn't hit me. She just let me hold her and it felt so good to have her in my arms. I wanna love her Angelo I really do" Angelo had a big smile on his face

"I never thought I would hear you say those words. I know Brie is stubborn and there is definitely something holding her back, talk to her, talk to Alex, try Andrea again, they might be able to help"

We waited a few hours before heading back to Alex's apartment. I knocked on the door and it was opened by Alex, he let us in and Angelo went straight upstairs

"I want to talk to you. You want anything to drink?" I shook my head

"You and I the same" I sat on a stool next to the counter and Alex copied my actions

"Brie told me something tonight and one of those things make me want to punch you but I'm not going to do that for my sister's sake. She likes you and your part of the reason she's hurting and I can't fix that and neither can you without the assistance of a therapist"

"What hurt her?" he sighed

"It's not what, it's who and I want to tell you but I can't betray my sister. You need to get it out of her on your own terms but I want to help, so I'm gonna drive David away because their relationship is toxic and you need to go back to the US with Angelo and let me do my part. When she goes back to the US I need you to do everything in your power to make her walls go down and it's gonna be hard but if you're willing so am I"

"I'm willing for sure and I promise I'll never say anything nasty to her again, well not in that way" he rolled his eyes

"Trust me you're fine as hell and as a bisexual man I wouldn't mind getting a piece of your ass but your my sister's which makes it gross so don't push it" I shifted awkwardly

"Um thanks man and tell Brie i'm sorry" I nodded

Alex's Pov

Angelo came downstairs holding Andrea's bag and she soon after came downstairs, before she left I gave her a hug

"Can I talk to you?" I pulled Andrea away from the boys

I told Andrea everything Brie told me, from the cemetery with Chris to the voice in her head and what I told Chris

"I can't believe she didn't tell me" Andrea's face showed concern

"Well I'm gonna get her a therapist and see what he can do, help Chris Andrea for the sake of Brie and what's her phone pass code"

"3925, why?"

"I need it to seem like David's not paying attention to Brie" I looked around the room for Brie's phone, it was on the couch I unlocked it and blocked David's number

"Smart, I need to go. Take care of her" I hugged one last time before she left with the boys

Brie's Pov

I woke up once again with a headache but this time it was much more intense and it was accompanied by period cramps, oh great my period's coming. I laid back down and shouted for Alex

"What's wrong" he came within a few second

"My head is hurting and this is the third time I've woken up with a headache but this time it's worse" he sat on my bed and felt my forehead and neck

"You're burning up again" he stared at me

"I know you hate it when I go all doctor on you but I have to. Let's go show you where I work" I groaned. Alex practically dragged me to the hospital with him and he performed my check up, I was surprised that he was allowed to do that

"So everything came back normal, except for certain pike in some of your hormones which is normal in women ovulating, there's nothing wrong I guess we'll have to wait it out"

"finally"

"Brie you have another appointment... with a therapist and tonight Francis is coming over" I smiled

Just to satisfy Alex I went to the therapist and that was the most awkward and weirdest experiences I've had, but I did break down, every single wall I built up was torn down and the voice wasn't present which was different and it felt good. It felt like I was talking to my best friend, he knew what to say, something I didn't like to hear but it was the truth.

I can't trust anyone because of him, he ruined my view on people this is why I hate myself for telling people no matter how close they are to me. I know why i'm like this, how I became like this but dealing with it fucking sucks and I just wish it could be all over

I got home extremely stressed and ready to pull my hair out, the voice was back and part of me wanted to run back to Dr. Michael's office but once again the voice was too overbearing.

I had a long shower and just cried the whole time, I cried for every scar on my body, every bad word said towards me, the way he took everything from me and I cried for Chris, how I couldn't love him and how that voice torments me

I stayed in the bathroom long enough for my eyes to turn from bloodshot back to white. I threw on some clothes, went downstairs and I heard a laugh at the bottom of the stairs. I looked at the couch and my eyes began to water, he caught sight of me and smiled

"Briella" He walked over to me, I ran over to him and threw my arms around him. I held onto him and didn't let go because I sure as hell didn't want to
