Brooklyn Beckham

Before I knew it, we were being surrounded by our body guards. Though it was never this tight, but I understood well.

Zoe was with us and we had to do our best to not get her on media. Or else hate undoubtly would come to her.

Currently we were being pushed put of the way of the paparazzi.

What did you do in Dublin?

Who is she?

What does this mean?

Brooklyn?

David?

I never bothered to turn around. Though my attention turned to the girl in between my two arms. She was frightened, but my mom's hand held her head down. Is she claustophobic?

"Brooklyn?" her murmur was soft and bearly hearable with the crowd, but with her so close to me I heard her say my name with a little anxiousness lingering in her word.

Before I knew it the body guards pushed us in the car and Zoe was sobbing softly into my mother's arms. "Shhhh" my mother soothed her while rubbing her back gently.

We were all driving in silence as Harper quietly slept on my lap and Zoe placed her head on my mother's shoulder, quietly sleeping herself. My mom asleep as well, her head was placed on top of Zoe's.

"Brooklyn" my father's voice came from the front seat beside the driver. "Are they asleep?" he asked.

"Only the girls" I mumbled softly as I ran my hand through Harper's hair once again.

"Hey, I'm sorry for ruining your birthday plans" my dad apologized. "But you know its important right?" his voice suddenly softened and before I knew a tear fell down from my eye.

I knew why.

I gently pulled my phone out of my pocket.

March 4, 2014.

I totally forgot my birthday was today. At the moment I didn't care if it was my birthday or not all that matter was Zoe was safe.

Someone lightly tapped my shoulder, I turned around holding gently unto Harper's head.

"Happy Birthday Brooklyn" Romeo quietly greeted me as Cruz handed me a medium sized box wrapped in wrapping papers.

I gently ripped the box resting it on my other leg as I try to rip the wrap without waking up my younger sister.

As soon as I opened the box a picture frame caught my eye. I flipped it around. The smile on my face was undeniable.

It was a picture of me and Zoe smiling as Zoe's mom took the photo. We were both smiling from ear to ear as we both were filled with mud.

I looked down at the box oncs again. You got to be kidding me!

It was the necklace me and Zoe have, which I thought I lost. It was a smiple ring placed on a chain. It was simple, but so valuable.

"Thanks guys" I smiled at Romeo, Cruz and my dad.
