Fighting demons (Waterloo road)

Five

Rachel sat in the kitchen as she sat on the phone to the governors. She was trying to focus on the important phone call that she had to take but she was worried, she was worried over her daughter and most importantly her mental health. Rachel knew that something had been off with Brooke for a few weeks and she was starting to get more and more concerned as the days went on. Rachel sighed as Brooke walked into the room as she placed the phone on the side as she was left on hold and looked to Brooke and smiled "are you okay?" She asked as Brooke looked to her and rolled her eyes "yeah, why would I be?" Brooke asked as Rachel looked to her and sighed. Rachel was worried and knew that there was something bothering her for certain. Rachel was starting to worry that Brooke was off of her medication and that she was going to end up having a relapse but she couldn't tell for certain but knew that she had to find out for sure.

Later the morning, Brooke got to school and sat in the hall with chlo and Donte during the drug day awareness assembly. Brooke looked to see tom and smirked to herself. Brooke was trying to be happy when deep down she knew that she wasn't. She was down and was fighting her depression. She ran her hands through her hair as she sat back in her chair as she tried to drowned out the bodies "Brooke?" She heard chlo say as she looked up at chlo and smiled "sorry what?" She asked as chlo looked to her "are you okay?" She asked as Brooke nodded. Brooke looked as Tom was caught with weed on him and smirked to herself as she saw him look at her and smiled.

Brooke walked out of the hall at the end of assembly and smiled as she saw tom. She walked over to him and smirked "are you okay?" Tom asked as she looked to him and smirked "I'm good, who would of thought that you were a dope head" she teased as he looked to her and smirked "behave" he said as she looked to him and chuckled "I can't, not around you" she said as he grabbed her waist and pulled her into his classroom and smiled as he leant in and kissed her. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close as the kiss got more heated and passionate.

Later that day, Rachel sat in her office as she looked through Brooke's medical file. She wanted to know for once and for all if she was right over Brooke being off of her medication. She frowned as she looked to see that Brooke hadn't renewed her prescription and that she hadn't been to see her councillor in months. She sighed to herself as she ran a hand through her hair. She knew, she was certain for it that Brooke was no longer taking her bipolar medication and she knew she needed to help Brooke and get her back on her medication before she had an episode. But was it too late for that?
