Luke’s POV

“Brook. Please come back. You can’t just leave like that. Is there something that you aren’t telling me? Please Brook. I need to know,” I yell before she can exit the school doors.

“Luke, everything is okay. Please don’t worry about anything.” She responds without turning around.

“Hey, if there is something that will help get my memory back, they you need to tell me. Otherwise I will not get better” how the hell is she doing this. I’m just trying my best to get my memory back and Brooklyn here is not helping at all. As soon as I say that, she stops in her tracks, turns around and walks towards me.

“Look, I know that you are going through a rough patch in life and that you can’t overcome things on your own, but Luke, I am not the one to tell you”

“Then who? Huh Brooklyn? Who is going to make my memory better? I need support and you sure as hell are not doing anything to help. You said you were going to be there for me. Why are you keeping things from me?

“Lucas! You don’t understand. It is not as simple as you think. And I have been here for you. If you don’t remember, I was at the accident too. So do not hold that against me. I am trying as hard as I can to help but things are not simple Lucas. One day, you will hopefully understand that. And by the way-fuck!  The buses are leaving” She finished as she started to sprint towards the entrance, but it was too late. The buses had left. And she had too.

“Brook, wait! Please, I’m sorry okay? I don’t know what came over me. I just want to know if I’m going to get better! You can’t blame me.” That last part came out more as a pleading whisper, unlike the first part that was a desperate yell.

“I know, I’m sorry too. But if you really want to know, you should ask your parents. Its hard to tell you certain things.” She says looking away. Lastly, she exits the building and I’m left alone.

I grab my face, and I feel humidity on my hands. Guessing the moisture came from tears, I wheel myself to the bathroom.

**Brook’s POV**

I had never had with Luke. Well not after the accident anyway. I thought that by keeping our relationship a secret to him, I would be able to move on. Guess not.

And to cherry my cake, I don’t have a ride home and my parents work late. Before I can process what I’m doing, I am dialing Damian’s number.

“Brook?” surprise evident in his voice. What do I say now? “Is everything alright?”

“Uh, hey Damian, I was wondering if you could pick me up?”

“S-sure, where are you?” is he nervous?

“School, the buses left without me”

“Niall! Lets go back to school.” I could hear him pull away form the phone as he shouted.

“What? Why do we have to go back?” then the line went silent for a moment. “Sure babe, be right there” My heart fluttered at his nice words.

“It’s the accent, Brook, girl. It’s the accent” I thought and my conscience rolled her eyes.

“What did you say?” Apparently I said that out loud.

“Nothing haha, see you Damian, thanks for coming” that was a lame save.  

“By all means my lady, a gentleman will do what he has to do for a princess like you” “whoa Romeo calm down your horses” I hear Niall’s laugh in the back and I feel myself blushing because I want to. Okay, don’t judge me. “I’m sorry haha, I get carried away sometimes, just wait there. Like don’t move okay Brook? See you in a bit”

“Don’t worry Charming, I have nowhere to go” With that we said our goodbyes and hung up. I sat outside in the swings for the elementary students while waiting on Damian and Niall. So I decided that I might as well start to do homework. Just kidding. I’m going to read. No Brook, do your homework and then you can read. I did that. Math exercises.

About 45 minutes later, I spot the familiar black SUV, pack my things and run towards the Irish mafia car.
