Song Of The Chapter: "Skyscraper" Demi Lovato

*Brianna's POV*

I could tell by the look on her face she was happy, but she had other emotions behind that. I could see anger, probably at our parents for keeping this from us. I could see sadness not only from her expression but from the tears forming in her eyes.

She hesitantly hugged me. At first gentle but then she tighten her grip. I couldn't help but do the same. I was wearing a tank top and I could feel a tear drop on my shoulder as she rested her head there. She released the hug but hand grip on my arms. "H-How did you find me?"she asked her voice shaking.

"Well it wasn't that hard. I found a group of paparazzi and asked them where Austin Mahone lived."i said with a slight laugh. "Um. Let's Go in the room. I wanna talk in private if that's ok." Nicole said. I nodded and she took me to her room and we sat on the bed. "So um, h-how's uh mom doing? Is she ok?" she said her voice still shaky and cracking. "Uhh yeah. She's doing fine. She's a nurse at a hospital in Northridge. She's been married twice but those assholes didn't work out so she's just waiting I guess."I said giving her a small rundown.

"Why didn't they work out?"she asked. This wasn't a subject I liked talking about. I had nightmares for years, I feel like I can tell her. I mean she is my twin after all. "Well, the guys she were seeing were good in the beginning. They would buy her things. Pay bills. But me things. Real gentleman stuff. But as soon as they would move in together the guys would do a complete 180. Her ex husband did us the worst."i said starting to feel tears build up. "What do you mean us? Were they hurting you?"she asked.

I looked up at her and I felt a tear fall down my face as soon as I saw one fall from hers. i took a deep breath. "Yeah. Her ex husband would beat her almost everyday. I would try to stop it but it was no use cause as soon as he was done with her, he would come do the same to me."i tried so hard to hold back the tears but it only worked momentarily. "It's ok, Brie."she said as she leaned and brought me into her embrace. "That's not all either. He came home drunk a few times and would try to rape me. One night he actually did."i cried as the tears were just flowing now.

She held me tighter. "It's ok. He can't hurt you anymore."she said. I could hear the sadness in her voice. I let go and looked down. "I would nightmares every damn night for at least 2 years. I had never felt so alone in my life. And even though it wasn't moms fault, I hated her for letting it happen. I ran away and left for 7 months. I stayed with my Bestfriend in Sacramento."I was balling my eyes out. I hated talking about what happened to me in my past because of all the horrible shit that I've been through. And I've felt alone through it all. The first good moment in my life was when I found out that I had a sister.

I never let a guy into my life after I saw all the things that happened to my mom. I never wanted to be treated like that. "I completely shut down when I moved back home. I wouldn't talk to mom. I wouldn't talk to my friends. I just went to school and came home and locked myself in my room. I would rarely eat, I never really slept. I was in such a depressing mood all the time."i cried and cried and Nikki was there to comfort me. My next sentence made her wrap me in such a tight embrace that I could barely breathe. "I was so depressed, that would cut myself all the time, and I contemplated death numerous times."i cried as she held so tight.

When she held me, I felt something that I've never felt before....safe. I felt safe in her arms. I felt comfort and warmth. It felt like home. "You'll never have to worry about any of that anymore. I'll make sure that you're never alone."she said and she rubbed my back.

After a while, Nikki calmed me down and we talked about her life. I've gotta say, she's been pretty fortunate. "You know what Brie?"she looked at me smiling. "I'm glad you found me. I really am."she hugged me. I rested my head in the crook of her neck "I'm glad I found you too."i said. We both let go and sighed at each other. "Well I think we should go back out there. We've been for a good 3 hours."she said standing up. I got up and followed her out the door back to the rest of them "gang" I should say.

I'm truly happy that I found my sister. Maybe now I can live a normal life. Something I've never had.
