Beginnings Again

Two houses, two children, one a six-month-old named Kimberly Jane Brookes and a fourth and a half-month-old named Katie Alison Bradley. Brooke Brookes (I know, weird) lived with her new husband Dustin in his old house where Shane Clarke had once lived but moved out and went to tour with GMX.

Tori lay on the bed, half asleep, half awake, and occasionally moving to get more comfortable or warmer. Katie was quiet when she slept and Tori had very few nights when her and Hunter were awake because of her. She heard from Bob time to time but he never really let himself feel okay with the fact the he killed her first child. Tori forgave him instantly, she wouldn't hold a grudge against someone who didn't even know what he really did.

It was a Wednesday morning and Tori was still in bed at eleven in the morning. Katie asleep not far from the sprawled out blonde. Hunter left for work at eight, totally ignoring Tori as she was sleeping.

"I don't want to get up." Tori whined as she moved one last time before attempting to get up.

The baby just cooed. Tori sighed a bit, and let out a laugh. She knew the small baby would go back to sleep if left alone and that was her plan for a while.

Brooke entered Storm Chargers, hoping to find Dustin at work. He was one of the head mechanics, Hunter the other. She carried the baby in a plastic carrier and set her on the counter as she waited for Dustin to appear in the spot she could see.

"Dustin." Brooke whined out loud.

Instead of one of the guys, she got both to go to the counter. Dustin leaned forward on the counter and kissed the two girls.

"How's my family doing?" He joked.

"Just fine, I'm going to grab Tor and we're going to the park." Brooke stated.

"You might have to get her up." Hunter broke in.

"Hard night last night?" Brooke asked.

"I believe the correct word is...lazy." Hunter replied.

"Again dude?" Dustin asked.

"Yeah, I'm going to have to borrow the crier, maybe she'll do something to get Tor up earlier." Hunter laughed.

"Any night." Dustin replied also laughing.

"Men are pigs." Jen muttered.

"Oink." Dustin replied.
