Black Roses Red
Chapter 5
Author's Note : The Brooke we are used to has been changed and watered down because enduring years of abuse and mistreatment from Julian has taking an emotional/mental toll. Let me know what you think.? Thank you for the support. Review!
I laid hands on her . I guess i don't know my own strength.
Now you're in each other's faces
It's best to go you're seperate ways.
You promised her. Next time you show restraint.
I love the way you lie.
We said things did things we didn't mean.
Maybe our relationship isn't as crazy as it seems.
Hours Later
Haley and Nathan were the first to leave the resturant. Lucas was the last but before he did. He hugged Brooke goodbye.
Feeling Julian's piercing gaze on him the entire time. He was able to fool Nathan and Haley they were familar with him. Didn't question the tension because it's always there between the married couple. But for Lucas he could tell something was off in a big way.
When Brooke felt Lucas's hand go into her pocket.
She felt her heart leap. While Julian drove them home and focused on the road. She gazed down at the piece of paper on it was Lucas's home address and cellphone number.
Brooke breathed a sigh of relief. Fighting back tears.
The front door to the Baker home opened and shut.
Brooke felt Julian's hands grabbed her wrists tightly. Slamming her against the wall of the entryway.
"Julian stop! I didn't do anything wrong!" Brooke pleaded.
"He was all over you! You think i'm stupid! How dare you humilate me like that!" He yelled. Tossing her to floor.
"Momma!" Davis and Jude called out. As they ran down the stairs and rushed towards their mother.
"Go upstairs to you're rooms now!" Brooke instructed.
"Don't make her tell you again!" Julian yelled.
The boys clung to to their mother.
Brooke clutched her sons. As she scrambled to her feet.
Grabbing their hands turning from Julian as she rushed upstairs.
...
Brooke grabbed what she could from the boys closet. Put it into a suitcase. Shirts, pants, a few shoes. She told to quietly follow her.
They followed her lead into the couple's bedroom.
Brooke took her suitcase from the closet and packed a few clothes.
Once she was finished. She locked eyes with them and said once they left. They wouldn't come back or see Julian again.
The boys nodded their head in agreement. Holding their mother's hands tightly.
When the three of them. Went back into the hallway.
Brooke's eyes went wide as the thick smell of smoke and fire filled her nose.
She rushed the boys and herself back in the bedroom.
"I won't let you leave me. And take my boys away."
"You pushed me here.!" Julian proclaimed.
Brooke knew there was no time to panic.
She took a deep breath and used the hard items there to break the window. She made enough room to crawl through.
First she made her way out. Then encouranged Davis and Jude to follow her lead.
Once Davis was out. Jude followed.
She grabbed their hands and rushed towards the car.
Brooke looked for her car keys and soon realized they were gone.
He took them. The thought soon crossed her mind.
When the front door to the home opened.
Brooke instantly shielded her sons.
They clung to her so tightly their nails dug into her.
They were in complete fear of their father.
"Stay the hell away from us!" Brooke yelled.
"Boys get out of here! This is between me and you're mother!" Julian yelled.
"No! Go Away!" They yelled in unison.
When they refused to move. Julian swiftly removed them from their mother's embrace tossing them to the floor.
A large gun shot rang out in the night sky.
Julian took off in his car.
"Momma!" The boys yelled rushing to her.
Brooke was shot and bleeding. But alive.
"My cellphone is in my purse. In my pocket you should find. A piece of paper. With a man's name on it. Lucas Scott. After you call 911. Call him." Brooke said. As her eyes shut.
...
The Scott Home
Seeing Sawyer awaiting him on the steps of his home was shocking and very unexpected.
"Daddy. I don't understand what's going on. Why did mommy say we weren't going to see you anymore.? She told me some other guy named Jake was my daddy. Did i do something wrong.? Is that why you don't love and mommy anymore.?" Sawyer asked. Tears streaming from her eyes.
Lucas engulfed her into a secure hug. Sawyer hugged him back. He took ahold of her hand in his and lead them inside.
After a snack of cookies and milk.
Sawyer explained that she ran away. In response Lucas made it clear that he would never not love her. But that her mom was right Jake was her biological father.
Jake was a good decent man. A friend and that wouldn't change on Lucas's end. He had been lied too as well.
Once the two clarified plans for her to spend the night.
Lucas called Peyton. Then he got an incoming call from the scared small voices of two little boys he would soon learn are Brooke's sons.
