A Dark Love Story

Chapter 15

Brooke's POV

We sat in that waiting room for what felt like forever. I was so tired from waking up so early that i started to fall asleep. But before i could my phone buzzed. I picked up my phone. It was 7:00am. Alisha had texted me

Alisha: Brooke where are you, Yvanna and Travis

I wanted to ignore the message because i was so tired, but i knew she'd just spam me.

Me: We're at the hospital

Alisha: ..why

Me: Because Jacklyn is hurt

Alisha: JACKLYN IS ALIVE!!!

Me: Yes. He had texted me earlier this morning and i went down to the bridge and saved him. Hopefully he's alright.

Alisha: I know he will be. I'm gonna get ready and we're all gonna head down there ok

Me: Ok see you in a bit   

I put my phone in my pocket and sat back in the chair. I closed my eyes and fell asleep.

I was woken up to Yvanna shaking me. "Brooke wake up". I opened my eyes and Yvanna was standing there with one of the nurses. I quickly sat up "oh sorry..what's up" i asked. The nurse smiled "you can go see him now". I quickly stood up and the nurse walked me, Yvanna and Travis to Jacklyn's room. 

When we got to the room, the nurse smiled at us and walked away. I put my hand on the door knob and stopped. Yvanna came up behind me "what's wrong Brooke" she asked. I stood there in silence until finally i shook my head and said "nothing...let's go". 

I slowly opened the door and walked in. Jacklyn saw us and smiled "hey Brooke. Hey Yvanna". He looked slightly behind us and saw Travis "oh..hey dumbass". Travis busted out laughing "yeah I'm the dumbass because I'm the one who decided to sit on the edge of the bridge and fall off" he said. Jacklyn glared at him "i didn't intend on falling off..it was an accident". Travis laughed again "well just remember that every time you call me a dumdass im gonna bring this whole situation up. Then we'll see who the dumbass is". Jacklyn gave him a devilish look "boy you are so lucky i can't slap you right now". He laughed. I sat on the chair next to his bed "are you..feeling any better" i asked. He smiled at me and put his hand on my cheek "yeah..a little bit". I smiled back and put my hand over his. He looked closer at me "Brooke..you need to get some sleep you look very tired". I shrugged "eh..i am tired but..i can stay up for days". Jacklyn shook his head "no Brooke you need your sleep. I won't allow you to stay up like this it's not healthy". He was acting different. He usually didn't care about anyone else's health. "Why do you care so much about my health". A shocked look appeared on his face "..Brooke..why wouldn't i care about your health. I care about you and i want you to get your sleep". He sat up slowly, put his hands on my cheeks and looked into my eyes "I..want you to promise me that you won't stay up like this anymore. I know it's technically my fault you were up so early but..now that you don't have to worry about me, you can get your sleep". i nodded "ok..i promise". He smiled "good"  he said laying back down. Just then, Alisha, Carisma, Alex and Ive walked in. We all sat down and talked for a while. 

 After talking for a bit i realized how hungry i was. "I'm gonna go get something to eat" i said. Everyone nodded. I stood up and walked to the door. When i tried to open the door i realized it was locked. I thought it was kinda weird but i just shrugged it off and unlocked it.

I walked into the hallway and noticed that it was really dark and the hallway was silent. I walked through the dark hallway and down the stairs. What i saw made my heart drop. There were tables pushed over, papers were everywhere and there were bullet holes in the windows. I started backing away and was about to run upstairs. But before i could someone grabbed me and put their hand over my mouth. "Hey pretty lady" i heard a deep voice say. I figured it was a man. He slowly moved his hand up my arm. I bit him as hard as i could causing him to let go of me. I made a dash for the stairs but he grabbed me again "tryna go back to your love. Well guess what pretty lady..Jacklyn can't save you now". And with that he hit me in the head causing everything to go black.

Jacklyn's POV

It had been an hour after Brooke left and she still hadn't come back. "Hey Alex can you go see what's taking Brooke so long" i asked. He nodded and headed out into the hallway.

A couple minutes later Alex came busting through the door. But what scared me the most was that Brooke wasn't with him. I sat up quickly "what's wrong where's Brooke". He took a deep breath "I couldn't find her. But something happened down there. Tables are pushed over and there's bullet holes in the windows". I nearly jumped out of the bed "WHAT" I screamed. Just then i got a text from a private number

??: Hey Jacklyn it's been a while hasn't it. You're probably wondering where your little girlfriend is. Well..lets just say she's taking a little "vacation". Now don't worry i haven't done anything to her..well..at least not yet. Just think of this as...revenge. You do remember what you did to me...don't you. Well, I won't bother you about it if you don't. I'll let you figure it out on your own. Have a nice day

My heart dropped. I knew exactly who this was. "What's wrong" Alisha asked. I looked up and slowly stood myself up "we need to go...now" i said walking to the door. Alex grabbed my arm "dude no you are in no condition to go anywhere". I pulled my arm back "Brooke is in danger. I don't care what condition I'm in. She risked her life to save me. Now I'm doing the same for her. I swear he's gonna regret ever laying a hand on her".
