This chapter was not really planned or thought out very well…but here it goes. I was listening to a CD that a friend sent me and this song reminded me of the old Brady. You know the scary but very hot young man that first came to Salem. I had to use it in my story.

In the Morning…

I disclaim…this is just for fun. I have a toddler, a baby, a husband and am about to have to pay back my student loans. So if you want to sue me be prepared to know that is all I have. (

Chapter 3

Brady rounded the corner a little too fast making the wheels on his jeep screech in protest. The radio was blaring and he was happy for the solitude afforded him by taking a separate vehicle than his dad, step-mom and sister. After a multitude of commercials a song came on that dug and tore at the wounds still fresh in his heart.

1 To see you again

To swallow the fire

And welcome the end

 

To feel you again

To feel your arms around me

The smile of a friend

 

To touch you again

To touch you slowly

I'd welcome the poison in

 

I'm confident

There's no way you can explain away

My pain, my pain, my pain!

 

(Feels the same even though I'm older)

 

And now I cuss your face

I curse your memory

I place the blame

 

To play this game

To play your fool

To hear your name

It feels the same even though I'm older

Still got pain even though I'm older

 

And there's no way you can explain away

My pain, my pain!

Feel it!

 

(Feels the same even though I'm older)

 

Now you've set me free

I said it's lonely to be

Lonely to be me now

 

Now you've set me free

I said it's lonely to be

Lonely to be me now

 

Now I've still got my pain

And it feels the same

And I just wanted you to know

 

(Feels the same even though I'm older)

 

Feel my pain

I don't want this

I don't need this

Being forever torn apart!

Put a target on your heart

And play a larger part in this

My pain

He laughed as he sang along with the loud music. It felt good to let some of the steam out. He still couldn't believe that his plan had backfired. He was just trying to get Chloe to admit that she did not want to talk to Phillip. It wasn't as though he was demanding a declaration of love from her. Quite the contrary, he just wanted the truth. Unfortunately he got it. She wanted to be with Phillip. She wanted to play childish games and maybe all she wanted was attention. That suited him just fine. He could get along better without her as a distraction.

Except he was not getting along any better. He passed the pub twice trying to convince himself that he was better off alone. Finally he swerved into a parking place, swearing as he narrowly missed clipping the tail end of a blue sedan with an oblivious red head driving.
