When Brooklyn returned home later that day she glanced awkwardly into Brandon's room as she walked past. "Hey!" He called and Brooklyn stopped."Yes?""Sorry for getting annoyed at you," Brandon sighed. "It's just that they really annoy the hell out of me.""I know the feeling," Brooklyn muttered."Stay away from him," Brandon pleaded.Brooklyn sighed and nodded. "I'm going to try."*"Step one, complete," Sasha said as Brooklyn climbed into her car Monday morning."You've got a long day ahead of you, girl," Brooklyn chuckled and buckled her seatbelt."We've got this," Sasha shrugged and started her car, driving away from Brooklyn's house."I hope so," Brooklyn said."Do you like him?" Sasha wondered randomly."No.""That was a very quick answer," Sasha commented."He...""Spill," Sasha demanded."I don't know," Brooklyn sighed. "He makes me feel... weird. I don't get close to guys, Sash. It's a personal thing and it just doesn't happen.""But you've gotten very close to him," Sasha o
Sorry it's been a while ! I've been on holiday !*"Evenin'," Brooklyn said brightly as she walked up to Ben who was standing behind the counter at the diner."Ah, you're early!" Ben smiled. "I'm liking you more and more.""I'm glad to hear that," Brooklyn laughed."Head in the back and get changed and then you can get to work," Ben said and Brooklyn nodded."Sir yes sir," she grinned and made her way into the back of the diner and into a private room to change. When she made her way back out she spotted Sasha and Alice at a booth and Alice pointed her finger accusingly at Brooklyn."You owe me a milkshake!" Alice called and Brooklyn laughed as she walked over to them."Of course," Brooklyn chuckled. "Flavour?""Chocolate," Alice said. "What else would I get?"Brooklyn held her hands up in defence and turned to Sasha. "What can I get you?""The same as my lovely ginger haired friend," Sasha said and Brooklyn nodded, taking her notepad out of her apron and writing down the order. "Oh,
An hour later Harry and Brooklyn definitely weren't talking. They weren't studying either.Harry grabbed Brooklyn and pulled her close to him, crashing his lips to hers.Brooklyn moaned softly and snaked her arms round Harry's neck. Harry tangled his fingers in Brooklyn's curls and gently lowered her onto the bed.Brooklyn knew she should stop, but she didn't.She knew that she was meant to be ignoring Harry, but she couldn't.She knew that she didn't get close to guys, but Harry was different.Her body was on fire. Every nerve was alive. Sparks were flying between her and Harry and they made her want more.She had never felt this way before, until Harry. He did things to Brooklyn that she could not explain."Harry," she whispered."Shut up," he grumbled and kissed Brooklyn again, sliding his tongue into her mouth.Brooklyn paused for a moment, but when Harry bit her lip she turned her attention back to him and was lost in his touch.It wasn't long before they were interrupted. Brookl
Brooklyn walked out of her house the next morning in a daze. Her mind was still on last night.She had told him.Brooklyn sighed and rubbed her eyes. After forcing Harry to leave she had a sleepless night. She wished that he would have stayed and that she hadn't have made him go. She had received a call from her father, which she ignored and she was trying her hardest to forget about her mothers words."Hey."Brooklyn jumped when she heard Harry's voice and she frowned when she realised she hadn't even seen him parked outside her house."I think I'm just going to walk," Brooklyn mumbled, but Harry shook his head."Get in.""I really-""Your head is all over the place. Knowing you you'll get run over or something. Get in, babe."Brooklyn stared at Harry for a few moments before sighing and nodding. She slowly walked towards Harry's car and he reached over and opened the door for her. It was silent as she climbed in."You alright?" Harry asked after a few moments."Fine," Brooklyn said
"So, what is everyone wearing?" Violet asked as the girls sat down for lunch."Um..." Alice looked down at herself. "A vest top and shorts-""For the party," Violet laughed. "Jasper told me that Austin is going all out, you've got to dress up.""Well there goes my plan of wearing a onesie," Alice grumbled and Brooklyn laughed at her."I love fancy," Brooklyn grinned. "I'm sure I can rummage something up.""Let me guess, you're one of those girls that can rock sweatpants and look gorgeous, but also look gorgeous and amazing when you doll yourself up?" Sasha saidBrooklyn frowned. "I... No," she said and shook her head."Well, you're rocking those sweatpants rather well," Violet pointed out and it took Brooklyn a few moments for her to remember she was wearing grey sweatpants."I was out of it this morning, I must've down thrown on whatever I could find," she sighed."Stressing over Harry?" Sasha smirked."Over what I told him," Brooklyn said under her breath. "Besides, I'm sure yous al
The rest of the day had gone pretty smoothly for Brooklyn. She met up with the girls in her next class, and completely ignored Harry, which was difficult since most of the students spent half the class looking between Brooklyn and Harry, hoping that some drama would happen.She had tried to find Brandon, but he had disappeared- or gone into hiding according to Alice.At the end of the day she walked out into the carpark with Violet and Jasper took them both to work.Brooklyn was grateful that Harry didn't come to the diner that evening. She nearly had a heart attack when Ace and Kal walked in, but they remained a pair."I'm home!" Brooklyn called as she walked through her front door later that night."Hi, honey!" Her aunt called. "Can you come into my office?"Brooklyn got to work untying her apron as she made her way to her aunts office and smiled when she saw her. "What's up?""I just wanted to let you know that dinner is in the fridge and... I need to know what happened to Brandon'
Brooklyn walked into the girls toilets and met Sasha, Alice and Violet."What time do you call this, girl?" Sasha asked, checking her imaginary watch. "I'm assuming you and Harry didn't just talk."Brooklyn sent a look to Sasha but didn't say anything. She walked over to the mirror and scrunched her face up. "It's going to bruise," she pouted. "That's going to look great for the party.""Violet can do wonders with makeup," Sasha said. "We'll sort it tomorrow.""Her ring scratched me," Brooklyn said and gingerly touched the red area on her face."I can't believe she slapped you," Violet murmured and passed Brooklyn a tissue."Thanks," Brooklyn said and wet the tissue and wiped the dried blood from her face."Your back is red," Violet said and Sasha jumped off the side where she was sitting and stood behind Brooklyn."You're bleeding," Sasha said. "Stacy is such a bitch! I can't believe she did this!""Is it bleeding badly?" Brooklyn asked."You picked a bad day to wear white," Alice ca
Super long chapter... People who have read Shy, you know what's going to happen ;)*Brooklyn's Saturday was pretty unproductive. Her main dilemma was figuring out what she should wear to the party."Pink, red, black, blue... I don't know what to choose!" She cried, making her uncle who was walking past stop and poke his head into Brooklyn's room."Is everything alright?" He asked worriedly."I'm fine," Brooklyn smiled. "I just don't know what to wear.""And that's my cue to leave," he chuckled. "I'll go grab Lisa.""Thanks," Brooklyn laughed and crossed her arms over her chest, frowning at the dresses hanging up on her wardrobe."I hear you have a clothing problem," Lisa said, walking into Brooklyn's room."Help," Brooklyn whined. "I want to look classy, not slutty, but not like an old woman with no fashion sense."Lisa blinked. "Right." Lisa studied the dresses for a few moments before pointing. "That one."Brooklyn frowned and picked up the dress before smiling at her aunt. "You're
