Fighting demons (Waterloo road)

Twelve

Brooke was struggling. She was really finding everything so hard. She looked to her wrist and sighed as she looked to the self harm that she had done to herself. Brooke knew that she and Rachel had been fighting a lot and Brooke felt so alone and that she had no one right now. Brooke stood up and walked out of the bathroom as she saw Rachel who was in the kitchen "we need to talk" Rachel said as Brooke looked to her and narrowed her eyes "about" Brooke asked as Rachel placed pills on the side "please tell me that your still taking these, do you not tell me that your not. Do you remember what happened last time" Rachel asked as Brooke looked to her and rolled her eyes "I'm aware mother, it's my old prescription. Can you just back off and leave me alone. I have bipolar I am not a glass vase that is going to break. I Can't do this" Brooke said as she stormed off as Rachel sighed to herself knowing something was off with Brooke

Brooke walked to school and smiled to herself as she saw Leigh with max and Daisey, she saw just how happy that they looked and it made her feel sad as she knew how miserable life was with Rachel. Tom walked over to Brooke and frowned. He grabbed her arms and looked to her "hey, are you okay" he asked as she shock her head "it's all a mess Tom, my mum is making me miserable and I don't know what to do" she said as Tom frowned "I know. I can see your not happy but you need to talk to your mum, Leigh or even your councillor as if you don't your going to end up in the hospital again. I'm here for you no matter what" Tom said as Brooke looked to him and smiled

Leigh sat in her classroom and smiled as Tom walked in "I need to talk to you, it's over Brooke" he said as Leigh looked to him and frowned at the mention of her sister "what is it" "she's miserable with your mum and I'm worried she will end up in the hospital. She needs your help" Tom said as Leigh looked to him and nodded "thanks tom" she said as she stood up and walked off looking for Brooke. Leigh got to the common room and sighed as she saw her sister. She looked to her and sighed "I spoke to Tom, he told me that your miserable. I don't trust mum, your coming to stay with me for a bit" "he had no right to tell you" Brooke said as she stormed off

Brooke stood in toms classroom as she trashed it. She was angry and feeling betrayed for him going behind her back. She looked as he walked in and over to her "Brooke, stop" "you betrayed me. You told my sister" she yelled as he looked to her and nodded "I know, I'm sorry" "why. What would you do that" she asked as he looked to her and sighed "because I'm in love with you"
