Always Near, Never Far - Luke and Jai Brooks

Part 7 - A birthday and The Ring

All the boys in the Janoskians shared housed Beau,Daniel, Ronnie and James still lived there with their four girlfriends. The only reason Jai wasn't living there was because he wanted there to be enough room for the Nicole and Ruby.

And when the accident happened, He didn't want to turn Luke's room into the nursery. He hadn't been in this house or Luke's room since the accident.

"Ok guys so it's Ruby's birthday in a couple of days and she'll be four, So your all helping me plan it for her and set it up. Ruby has clearly stated that she wants her Fourth birthday here " Jai said, all of them sitting around the black couch they had in the lounge room.

" Ok Jai you know we'll help you. What is theme were going to do" Alyssa said, everyone else agrees they would help out here with the party.

" Well it's Princess themed" Jai said smirking knowing the boys would have to dress up in prince outfits.

"Really Jai princess themed last time I checked we were guys. Do we have too" Beau whined crossing his arms.

"Yes we have to and idiot the guys dress up as princes dumb one " Jai said slightly snapping at Beau.

"Of course Jai's daughter would want a Princess themed birthday, Jeez Jai she could've picked a different theme" James laughed.

" Alright let get to work, Nicky, Kiana, Lucy and Mariam have taken her birthday shopping to get her outfit for the party" Jai said standing.

About two hours into cleaning the house, everyone realised that Jai was not downstairs, though they kept cleaning Beau had in his head that his gone to Luke's room and decided that it was best to leave him and grieve on his own.

Jai was standing in front of the one door Luke's door. He opened the door and went in and quickly closed it behind him. Everything looked the same like nothing had being touched which Jai liked it that way.

Jai walked towards the bed and sat down on it. He remembered going off at the boys and his mother three days after Luke's death, because they thought it would be a good idea if the packed up some of Luke's things that they didn't need and keep some things that meant something to them. Jai didn't want to pack his brothers thing away and send them away to someone. So he fought the boys and his mother on having them not touch Luke's room at all.

" I miss You Lukey so damn much. I don't know if Ruby can see you, I'm glad she can see you because it's something you would do, like your her imaginary friend. Im happy that your doing that making sure she's okay. Lukey I need you here, I'm sorry I haven't let the boys in here to pack your thing away and send them to a charity or shop, I can't bare to pack up your things Lukey. But that's what you would've wanted and I was foolish to not let the boys do that " Jai said letting a couple of tears run down his face.

" You know Danny is Back Lukey, his been stalking Kiana. She scared Lukey, but don't worry I'm going to protect her just like you would've wanted me to do, just like you always protected me. I promise you she won't get hurt" Jai smiled . He looked around the room and notice on Luke's desk was a duffle back , Jai looked confused because he hadn't realise it was there until now.

He walked over to the duffle bag and searched through it, in there was only a couple of tops and pants, until his hand hit a small box he pulled it and wondered why Luke would have a small black velvet box in the bag. He decided to open the box, And froze when he saw what was in it, inside the small black velvet box was an engagement ring.

' He was going to propose to Kiana' he thought to himself. Jai punched the mirror and his hand started to bleed.

" NOOOO. WHY DIDNT YOU FUCKING TELL ME LUKEY. I SHOULD'VE FREAKING STOPPED YOU " he shouted and fell to the ground breaking down crying.
