Breaking Point

AN: This one shot is written from Brody's point of view.

I had lost everything that I had worked so hard to keep. When that bitch Marty Saybrook finally told Natalie the truth about Liam I lost her. I lost everything. Natalie packed up Liam's things and moved out of our home. She told me that she needed to give Liam his real family and then she moved into John's.

Once again I was left with nothing. I had gone through this before when I had lost Gigi and Shane to Rex. All I had ever wanted was to find a place where I belonged. I had never been part of a family unit. My parent's had died when I was young and my sister had betrayed me time and time again.

There was nothing left for me. The only thing that had ever given me peace was my relationship with Jessica, but I ruined that when I had slept with Natalie. She would never forgive me and I didn't blame her. I was completely exhausted and I knew that I couldn't go on this way.

I got dressed in one of my navy seal uniforms and I pulled out my gun, my hands shaking. The last time that I wore this uniform was the night that I shot Rex. I pointed the gun at the temple of my head.

I was about to pull the trigger when I saw Jessica walk into my apartment.

"Brody, don't kill yourself," Jessica pleaded.

"Jess, what are you doing here?" I asked as I lowered the gun.

"I heard about Natalie and Liam and I was worried about you."

"I thought that you hated me," I stated.

"I've never hated you Brody. I was hurt by your relationship with Natalie, but only because I loved you so much. I still love you and I'm sorry that you're hurting."

"I don't know who I am anymore. I'm so tired of losing everything. I'm just so tired," I stated.

"You haven't lost everything, I'm here and I'm not going anywhere," Jessica said as she took the gun out of my hand. "I'm your family and you're mine," she said as she kissed me on the forehead.

I let her hold me in her arms and we spent the whole night talking and I knew that I had finally found my peace again.
