Chapter Twenty Five-Part Two
Meanwhile on the beach
Having walked out after Brooke's warning Frankee decided to take a stroll down the beach to cool off, it was about 3pm in the afternoon and she was meant to be heading to the school to pick up Alexis then on to pick up Lily and Seb from the pre school and then Olivia from the babysitter. But she decided that even though she'd promised Joey and she knew Joey would be angry at her she didn't really care having seen the exchange between Brooke and Mel she was more than willing to leave the kids to their own devices mainly because it would anger Brooke to no extent and inturn Brooke would be to worried about the kids to let anyone else pick them up so all her time would be taken up and she wouldn't be able to spend anytime with Mel.
As she continued walking she heard her phone going off in her pocket as she pulled it out she noticed that the number was of the school that Alexis attended, the school she attended finished at 2:45pm everyday and wouldn't let any of the kids go without a approved adult with them. As she continued to walk she began getting annoyed by the constant ringing coming from her phone she looked down at it in frustration and roughly turned it off before sitting down in the sand and looking out at the sea ignoring the world and everything in it as her thoughts instantly went to Mel and ways she could win her 'back' from Brooke.
After everything she had done for her Mel still didnt want her and she wasn't going to give up on her yet, she was sure that her and Mel were meant to be together after all the things they had shared she knew it 100% and the only person that seemed to be in her way was Brooke, although she loved Brooke as her friend she was now nothing more than an obsticle that was stopping her getting what she wanted, she HAD to find a way to stop them getting back together and she had to think of something quick, the look that Brooke and Mel had shared earlier was a look that she knew was a sign of their connection and she knew it was a matter of time before Brooke opened up to Mel again...She had to find a way...
After everything that had happened ran through her mind it hit her like a tonne of bricks there was one thing that would make Brooke leave Mel and that was Family and she had the perfect person to use to get what she wanted...JOEY
Back at the House
Joey and Charlie were sat on the seatee waiting to see who was about to come through the door, Joey took a deep breath in hoping that it wasn't Frankee she knew that if it was Frankee that the same thing that happened last night would happen again and she wasn't in the mood to keep going back and forth with Frankee all night only for it to end in her forgiving her the very next morning, as she was lost in her thoughts the door finally opened...
As she stared at the door Joey was shocked to see Taylor emerge from behind the door, as she walked through the living room Joey was slightly confused when she didn't see Alexis and also when Taylor didn't look at her it looked as though Taylor was trying delibrately to hide her face from Joey, instantly feeling something was wrong Joey followed Taylor into the kitchen,
"Tay is everything ok?" She asked entering the kitchen
"Yeah I'm fine" Taylor responded still not looking at Joey instead opening the fridge and pretending to look inside
"Really because you haven't looked at me once since you got in"
"So it's not a crime is it?" She sarcastically replied hoping Joey would leave her alone
"No it isn't but its not like you" As she spoke she slowly moved towards the fridge stopping when she was within arms reach of Taylor
"I'm sorry I just need to do some stuff" As she shut the fridge door she instantly say Joey standing almost in front of her, she instantly tried to turn and cover her face but she knew it was too late
Joey was in slight shock as she took in the marks that were on Taylors face she had only seen them for a brief second but they looked like self defensive wounds, Joey quickly moved behind Taylor gently turning her around by her waist, as she did she looked at the damage to Taylors face, she had a cut above the right hand corner of her upper lip, a graze just under her left eye which looked to be forming into a black eye, As well as what looked to be a deep red mark from a fist or a hand on the left side of her forehead.
"What the hell happened to you Taylor?" Joey almost yelled
"Nothing it was an accident" Taylor instantly replied she didn't want to get anyone into trouble
"This doesn't look like an accident Taylor" Pausing for a second she pondered what to say, when it suddenly came to her "Do I have to go and get Brooke?" She asked when Taylor didn't answer she went to walk towards the studio, before she even reached the sink Taylor had grabbed her hand stopping her from going any further
"Ok ok I'll tell you" She said letting go of her grip as Joey turned back around
"Good , So lets start with who did this?"
Talyor took a deep breath as she prepared herself to say the words she knew would get her and others into trouble with Brooke Joey and Mel "It was Lexi"...
Back in the studio
Mel and Brooke were locked in a passionate embrace both their hands wondering all over each other, after about ten minutes of moving her hands about Brooke settled her hands on Mel's bottom as she squeezed a little she felt Mel tense up slightly, She pulled back slightly about to ask Mel if she was ok but as soon as she moved an inch out of the embrace Mel pulled her back into it, as their lips connected Mel's hand wondered up under the front of Brooke's shirt resting just under her breasts and above her abdomen as her hands moved down Brooke's abdomen she felt all the hairs on her body rise up from the thrill, A thrill that she hadn't felt in over a year as her hand reached Brooke's jeans she rested her hand on the waistband of the jeans for a few minutes as she began to undo the jeans' button as she did images of her attack flashed in her head, she tried to block them out but the more she did the more it became like she was there again and it was all happening again as it became too much she pull out of the embrace resting her hands on Brooke's shoulders as tears ran down her cheeks Brooke instantly asked;
"What's wrong?" Looking into Mel's eyes as the worry was evident in her voice
"Nothing I'm fine" Looking away from Brooke
"Melaine Look me in the eyes and say that" She stated as she leant against the edge of the control panel.
Mel turned to face Brooke looking into her eyes she knew that there was no way she could lie to Brooke "It's just everything is happening so fast and I just wanna get to know you again"
"Mel nothing has changed between us no matter how it might feel we're still the same people, the only difference is that we've both been through something really bad" Brooke knew what was the problem, why Mel wasn't talking to her but she also knew that all she needed to do for Mel was give her time, "Look I know what you went through was worse for you mentally but when your ready I'm here for you" She honestly completed looking Mel in the eyes so she knew she was serious
"Thank You" Mel replied, as Brooke stood up from were she was leaning Mel softly gripped Brooke's hand causing her to turn around and look at Mel "There is one thing you can do for me?"
"Name it"
"You can give me a hug" Mel replied nervously smiling at Brooke
"My pleasure" Brooke replied smiling brightly as she moved forward wrapping her arms around Mel's waist squeezing Mel slightly so that she knew she was safe with her, she couldn't help but feel happy when she felt Mel bury her head into her shoulders.
"Brooke?" Mel asked not moving an inch from her position
"Yeah whats up?"
"This...I mean us...you know being back together...does that mean were girlfriends again or Fiancees or wives...I mean any of them is great...But do we keep it between us or do we tell everyone...I just wanna know were exactly we stand at the moment" Mel nervously completed still with her head buried in Brooke's shoulder. As Brooke pulled her back slightly forcing Mel to remove her head from Brooke's shoulder and look at her in the eyes. But before Brooke could answer any of the questions they heard the studio door open and Joey shout down to them,
"Brooke, we need you up here now" Joey shouted the panic clear in her voice
"Joey I'm not getting involved in your domestic"
"Brooke Lexi is missing"
