Chapter 1: Leaving for London and You?
Brooke viciously packed her bags throwing anything and everything that was hers in her bag. Brooke looked up as Peyton walked in with Lucas giggling. "What, now Brooke?" Peyton scoffed as she walked up to Brooke. "What we have one little argument and you decide to leave?" she asked as she threw the already half filled bag of clothes to the floor. "Why don't you fucking say something?" She screamed. Brooke lifted her head. "Get the fuck out of my way." She sneered as she zipped up the last bag. Peyton smiled as she shoved Brooke against the wall. Brooke shoved Peyton back making her fall into Lucas's arms. She grabbed her bags and walked out past them. "Don't even think about asking me for help." Peyton yelled. Brooke kept going as she walked to her car and got in.
Brooke walked into the airport. Walking up to the teller she placed her bags on the floor. "Can I help you?" the teller asked as she finished typing on the computer. "Yeah, I would like a flight to London." Brooke said as she pulled out her wallet and gave her a credit card. "Okay, we have a few open slots left. Can I see your passport?" she teller asked as she slid the credit card through the machine. Brooke handed her the passport and as the teller handed her the credit card. "Okay your flight leaves in one hour. It is gate twenty-three." The teller said. Brooke smiled as she grabbed the paperwork and walked toward gate twenty-three. Brooke looked at her watch and noticed that she had a little time to kill. Sitting down she leaned her head back and took a deep breath. She was drawn from her silence by her phone ringing. Looking down she noticed that it was Haley.
She reluctantly answered the phone. "Hello?" she asked faking a cherry happy voice. "Brooke what happened? Peyton said something about you leaving for the airport?" Haley asked her voice sounding concerned. Brooke sighed. "Yeah, we had a fight and she said that Lucas says that she was better than me. He also said that it was probably a mistake that he went out with me and that she is a better person than me." Brooke said sounding sad. Haley scoffed. "Brooke you are so much better than what Peyton could be as a person. Brooke; just tell me where you're going?" she asked. "I can't I just need to be away and I don't want to tell anyone right now." She said as she looked up and saw that passengers were boarding the flight. "I gotta go Haley. I'll call you later." Brooke said as she hung up the phone.
After six hours on a plane Brooke was ready to sleep. Brooke left London's airport and walked to go get a cab. Brooke drove around in a cab till she got to an apartment complex. After paying the cabbie she walked into the apartment. Brooke walked up to the manager's office. "Can I help you love?" the manger asked. Brooke smiled. "Hi, I was wondering if you had any rooms to rent?" she asked as she shifted the weight of the bags. The manger smiled. "Running away from something?" he asked as he pulled out his ledger. He looked up and smiled. "I do have something for you. It will be about a thousand a month. That okay?" he asked. Brooke pulled out her wallet. "You take plastic?" she asked as she handed him a credit card. He took it and walked into his office. Brooke looked at her phone to see that it was almost six at night. The manger came back. "Here you go love." He said handing her the keys. "Is there anything to eat around here?" Brooke asked as she put the key in her purse. "No, you have to take the subway to get any kind of real food love." He said. Brooke thanked him and took the elevator to her apartment.
After Brooke dropped off her stuff she waited inside. Grabbing her phone she left Haley a message. "Hey Haley, I just wanted to tell you that I'm fine and I will let you know where I am in a few days. Okay tell Jamie I love him. Bye." She hung up the phone and sighed. Brooke walked back down the stairs and asked the manger where the subway station was. Brooke walked to the station which was only a few blocks from her apartment. Brooke ended up going to a McDonalds to eat. Brooke finished eating and decided that it was time to go home and get some sleep. Brooke was walking when her phone rang. She looked down and noticed that it was Haley. "Hey tutor mom. How are you?" she asked. Haley laughed. "I'm good, Brooke where the hell are you? We're really worried." Haley said. Brooke pinched her eyes shut. "I can't Haley not yet. I'll call you tomorrow." Brooke said as she turned into the subway. Haley sighed. "Alright but I want to know tomorrow. I'll call you okay?" Haley said. "Okay, bye." Brooke hung up the phone and sat down on the bench to wait for the train.
Brooke sat and waited for the train. It was close to eleven and after the plane ride, fighting with Peyton she just wanted to lay down and sleep. She could hear laughing and cheering on one end and she could see a group of guys coming from the other. Brooke decided to close her eyes for a second. "Well, well Brooke Davis is that you?" a voice shook Brooke to make her look up and see Felix Taggaro.
"Felix?" she asked. Felix smiled as he turned back to look at the group of guys. "Relax boys, I know this girl really well." He said as he winked at Brooke. She scoffed as she went to get up Felix wrapped his arms around her. "Hey now wait okay. I haven't seen you in since junior year." Felix said as he sat next to her. Brooke shrugged away but Felix threw his arm around her pulling her close to him. "So you know I miss you Brooke and by miss I mean I…" "I know what you mean asshole." Brooke sneered cutting Felix off. Felix fixed his jaw growing angry. "Look what are you doing here?" He asked as he got up and walked over to his group of boys. "I don't have to tell you shit." Brooke sneered. "Then you're not going to like what happens to you." Felix said as he came toward her and knocking her to the ground. "Felix, stop!" Brooke screamed. Felix laughed as he grabbed her hip and tried to shove his hands up her shirt. Felix stopped when the loud laughing and singing was across the tracks.
"What the fuck are you doing Taggaro?" the man asked. Felix sat up and looked across. "This is none of your concern Dunham." Felix said as he caressed Brooke's cheek. "It looks like you sorry assholes like forcing your way on loves." The man said making Felix stop again. Brooke sniffed as she let the tears fall from her eyes. "Look I'm just having a nice outing with my girlfriend. So piss off like your suck ass firm Dunham." Felix said as he pulled Brooke up. The men across from them laughed. "And another thing Dunham, When the Major was doing your job he wasn't so chatty. Probably, cause he wasn't so nervous either." Felix said making the rest of his guys laugh.
The man across the way responded. "You reckon? Mate, I think you should get on the next train and fuck off before something bad happens." Felix smiled. "We'd be interested to see exactly what that is." He said pulling Brooke closer hurting her wrist. "You're not exactly top-flight mob these days, are you? More like a two-bob mob." Felix added as he held Brooke close. Brooke could feel bruises form on her hip and he ribs. The man across from them laughed and turned to the guys behind him. "See, now, that's just plain rude. But if you fancy it, who are we to let you down?"
Before long all the men were rallied up and were getting ready to fight. Felix threw Brooke to the ground as the men from the other side attacked Felix's guys. Brooke backed away and tried to hide from the violence. After thirty minutes Felix came over to Brooke. "There you are." "No." Brooke screamed as Felix grabbed her. "Don't make this difficult." He said tightening his grip. Brooke turned around and slapped him hard making Felix stop and back hand her to the ground. Felix wasn't done when he sent a powerful kick to her ribs. Brooke gasped in pain. Felix was about to pull her up when someone pulled him first sending him to the station's floor.
Brooke stayed still till she felt someone's arms around her helping her up. "You okay love?" he asked. Brooke looked up and saw the man that was jeering Felix was helping her up. Brooke sniffed as she tried to talk. "Yeah, I think thanks." She said. "What's your name love?" he asked. "Brooke Davis." She said her voice still shaky. "I'm Pete Dunham. You alright?" he asked touching her cheek slightly. Pete looked behind him to see that his guys were chasing down Felix's. "Can you stand?" he asked helping her up. Brooke stood but grabbed her side. Pete caught her before she fell to ground again. "I guess you're not." He said pulling her hair out of her face. "Let me look." He said. Brooke looked up. "It's okay." He said not wanting her to be scared. Brooke let him lift her shirt. The side was bruised. "It's not broken, just bruised love." He said helping her walk. "Where do you live?" he asked as he helped her sit on the bench. Brooke could see that his right eye was starting to bruise and his lip was bleeding. "A few train stops away." She said. Pete chuckled. "I don't think you should stay alone with your ribs you can come stay with me." He said. Brooke's eyes were becoming heavy. All of a sudden everything went black.
