Brook was sitting in Ian's room reading, as usual. Ian was bouncing his leg nervously.

Brook looked over and met Ian's eyes. "What's wrong?" She asked. Ian shook his head and looked at the ground. "No...what's wrong?" She set down her book and waited for his answer.

She didn't know what was coming up, so she didn't feel bad about pushing him until he answered.

Ian whispered something really quiet. "Ian, you know I can't hear you."

Ian took a deep breath. "I released."

Brook's brain didn't even process what her legs were doing, she came over and hugged him tight. Ian jumped a little from the speed but hugged her back and let tears fall.

"Hey." Brook moved her head so they made eye contact again. "I'll always be here, ok? I won't ever leave you and if I do, send Tim after me." She joked, making Ian smile a little.

"I don't want you to feel like you have no one. I don't care if I'm working, call me and I will have Ethan cover for me." The flare in her eyes reassured Ian that she was 1,000% right.

Ian nodded. "Ok." Was all he said before she hugged him again. He just leaned into the hug, feeling safe inside her arms.

Knowing she was always there for him no matter what.

I'll leave now lol
