Always Come Back

Tori laughed a bit and sat down, on Hunter's lap. Brooke rolled her eyes and giggled a bit at the bloodied up girl.

"So that's the third person who tried to beat you up?" Dustin joked.

"Four if you count the girl from high school." Hunter added.

"No, I started that one." Tori smiled. "But I finished the rest."

"But I thought Bob and Blake-"

"Finished." Tori cut him off. "I passed out remember?"

"Here's my part." Hunter joked.

"And you wonder why your name is Sir Brags-A-Lot." Shane muttered.

"Actually I've never wondered that."

"It would've been nice if when I was little I had a few girl friends then I wouldn't be stuck with an airhead and a moron or known my ex who hit me and my current husband, life would've been good." Tori joked. "But no, I had to be neighbours with the town idiots and have the time of my life when I went out because they're so much fun, then bring in Blake, get beaten by him then his drinking buddy, talk to his brother who didn't believe it yet ended up marrying me because we love each other. Life is still pretty good."

"Great story." Brooke replied sarcastically.

"I could tell you yours. Once upon a time there was a girl named Brooke, who had a friend. He was a leprechaun who gave her money when she most needed it which led her to the North Pole in search of a pet penguin to replace the mini green guy. After the North Pole, you ran into the Easter Bunny and Santa Claus and they said that you owed them money so you were five billion dollars in debt. That journey ended with you working off your debt in a restaurant for a guy named Alex and that took you five hundred years. See, this is your sixth life, I was a mushroom in my last life." Tori laughed.

"So what was I?" Shane asked.

"A twig, you were run over with the lawnmower." Tori joked. "My mom's lawnmower."

"Where do you come up with this stuff, how about me?" Dustin asked anxiously.

"A piece of gum. Juicy Fruit to be exact which my grandpa chewed when he was fourty-three."

"Just for fun..." Hunter chuckled.

"You were..." Tori thought for a minute. "A shoelace, in an Adidas running shoe on the foot of my great-grandma when she was my age, playing basketball."

"I think you're the one who should be put in the asylum." Brooke grinned.

"I'll be your roommate." Tori retorted.

"No more drugs, please?" Hunter begged.

"O...kay." Brooke replied.

"I get it, but I thought I was mean off the drugs?" Tori asked. "Man it's been so long I don't even remember."

"A year ago?" Shane asked.

"Around then." Tori shook her head yes. "Give or take a few months, days and hours."

"Minutes, seconds and milliseconds." Brooke snuck her say in there.

"Too far." Tori stated.

"You're mean, I don't understand how anyone could love you, not even your mama that's how mean you are and ugly." Brooke teased.

"I may be mean and I may be ugly but one thing I'm not is a mama's girl." Tori retorted, ready to smile.

"Fine, daddy's girl." Brooke retorted with a grin.

"I have one of those bro." Dustin said, out of nowhere.

"Me too dude." Hunter reached over and high-fived Dustin.

"Dude, you broke up a good catfight." Shane stated with disappointment.

"I would've won." Tori patted her friend on the shoulder after saying that.

"Probably." Brooke grinned.

"But we make a better team." Tori joked. "Two is better than one."

Brooke grinned and then said, "Hoes before bros."

Tori laughed and they did a little handshake to make it look cool. Dustin chuckled along wit Hunter and Shane but the girls stopped and smiled at each other.

"Where did that come from?" Tori asked.

"TV is good." Brooke kidded.
