Ch 2 Guilt
In London Brandon is trying to decide if he should have his sister transfer back to California so he calls his parents to update them on Brenda's condition and to see what they think about having her transferred to the hospital in California. When his father picks up the phone Brandon fills him in on what the doctor has just told Brandon and then he asks what he thinks about having Brenda transferred to California. Jim asks his son if Dylan is in California, Brandon admits that he is although he hasn't talked to Dylan since he left London. Jim tells Brandon that he has had his problems with Dylan, but since Brenda's accident he has come to realize how much Dylan really dose love her, and he also knows how hard this must be on him. Brandon tells his father that Dylan withdrawals into himself when things go wrong and that he won't let anybody in. He also says that Brenda is the only one that has ever been able to break though the walls that Dylan puts up, and without her he gets into trouble. As much as he hates to admit it Jim tells his son that he is right Brenda's the only one that has been able to help Dylan deal with his problems and she keep him away from drugs and alcohol. He says that Brenda keep Dylan from drinking and drugs after Toni died. After hanging up the phone with Brandon Jim fills Cindy in on his phone call with Brandon, while Brandon makes plans to have Brenda flown back to Beverly Hills. Brandon knows how much Brenda hates flying the ironic thing is that she will be flying and won't even know it.
Back in Beverly Hills at the After Dark Donna and David are trying to take Kelly mind off of her problems but it doesn't seem to be working. When David gets up to go back to work in the DJ booth, Kelly tells Donna that she had another fight with Dylan. When Donna asks what the fight was about this Kelly tells her that Dylan has been drinking again and Kelly also tells Donna that they have been fighting about Brenda again. Donna is feed up with hearing about Kelly's problems with Dylan and tells her that she is tried of always hearing Kelly blame Brenda for her problems with Dylan when the only one she has to blame is herself. Kelly tries to deny it, but when Donna tells her that ever since high school Kelly has been trying to blame Brenda for the problems she has with Dylan Kelly can't say anything because deep down she knows that Donna is right and she also knows that she never should have been with Dylan. When Donna asks Kelly why she can't just let it go, Kelly tells Donna about the ring that she found. She also admits that she confronted Dylan with the ring and his reaction to finding out that she knew about it. Kelly tells Donna that she is worried about Dylan that every time that she brings up Brenda's name Dylan becomes defensive and refuses to talk about what happened in London. Kelly also feels like Brenda is ignoring her or something she has tired to call and write to her several time and hasn't gotten a call or letter or anything.
When Brenda first moved to London she would write or call but she hasn't called or written since before Brandon and Kelly's wedding was called off. Donna tells Kelly that she hasn't heard from Brenda either. Kelly asks Donna if she doesn't find it strange that neither of them have heard from Brenda. Donna never really thought about it before she just figured that Brenda is to busy to call or write. Kelly tells Donna that the last time she heard from her Brenda and Dylan were planning on going coming to her wedding to Brandon, but than Brandon told her that Dylan called and told him that Brenda and Dylan were going to met them on the honeymoon. Kelly finds it strange that after they called off their wedding and Brandon moved to Washington Dylan suddenly returns and claims that he wants Kelly back but he has been acting weird and distant when they are together than Kelly says she found the ring and at first she said nothing to Dylan about knowing about the ring and when Kelly asked him about he became angry and stormed out. Donna tells Kelly that she can't force Dylan to talk about what happened in London, that if he wanted to talk about what happened with Brenda in London he would.
Later in his hotel room Dylan can't stop thinking about Brenda. He becomes lost in the past. Dylan is remembering the first time that he met her she was with Kelly, he's seen her in the school halls several times and figures that she must be new because he hasn't seen her before. Little did he know that she would completely change his whole life. Before her he had been a loner and after she came into his life he would never be the same again. After Kelly introduced Brenda to him Dylan was instantly attracted her. He had wanted to ask out her but he couldn't. He saw the looks that he got every time that he flirted with her in the hall, and he also heard the whispers that she would be the next notch on his belt. But what no one knew was that she wasn't just another notch on his belt that she was different.
Dylan still can't believe that they ever got together in the first place that she would even want to be with him considering his past. He didn't have the best reputation around before her he use to have sex with any girl he could get in to bed. But Brenda changed all that he fell in love with her. At first he didn't realize that he had fallen in love with her because he never really knew what love was while he was growing up. His parents were hardly ever around when he was growing up and when they were they were fighting all the time. Dylan felt like no one would ever care about him or love him because his parents hadn't. But he had been wrong Brenda had proven that to him more than once. Even when they had broken up she had been there for him more then his parents ever had until she move to London. When Brenda told Dylan she was going to London for the summer and ask him to give her something to come back to he had wanted to but he didn't, because he was afraid that when she came back and they got back together that something would only come between them again. They had broken up and gotten back together so many times for one reason or another that Dylan couldn't stand the thought of it happening again so he let her go and when she didn't return he acted liked he didn't care, but he did. He try to forget her but he couldn't he tried to convince himself that he was in love with Kelly, but he wasn't he never had been and he knows now that he never will be. Dylan cares about Kelly as a friend nothing more. While Dylan had loved Toni he has never stopped loving Brenda and he knows that he won't he can't, because he never would have known love at all had it not been for her and he is lost without her.
Two Days Later
With only an hour before they land in California that morning, on the plane from London Brandon is thinking back to when his family first moved to Beverley Hills and everything that has happened since then. When they first moved to California neither him or Brenda ever thought they would fit in with the kids at West Beverley, but they did and they had made some of the best friends they would ever have. Brandon recalls all the time they have been there for each in the past no matter what, Brandon can't help wishing that this reunion were under different circumstances and it should have been had it not been for the drunk driver that put his sister in the coma. He can't believe that after 4 years the London police still have not found the guy responsible for his sister's condition and are just writing the case off as unsolved.
Before he left London Brandon went to see the Police detective in charge of his sister case and want to know when they were going to catch the guy responsible for his sister's condition only to learn that they are dropping the case and writing it off as unsolved. As he leaves the police station Bandon wants to know how many more life's the guy has to ruin before anyone will do anything about it. Brandon thinks to himself that if he had his doubts about transferring his sister back to California before he doesn't anymore because he knows that at least she will have the people that love and care about her around. Brandon's thoughts turn to Kelly the first time that he met her he thought that she was just another spoiled rich kid, he had no idea that he would fall in love with her. While Brandon regrets not going though with his wedding to Kelly he knows that he did the right thing by calling it off because it just wasn't the right time but he also feels guilty because he couldn't tell her the truth. He didn't tell her the truth because he couldn't admit or accept the truth himself. He is hoping that she understands why he did it.
Later that morning in his hotel room Dylan hears the phone ringing but he doesn't pick it up he doesn't feel liking talking to anyone. When the answering machine picks up he hears Brandon voice telling that him that he is back in town and that he has had Brenda transferred to the hospital there is California. While he listening to the rest of Brandon message Dylan remembers when he called Brandon and told him about Brenda. They were support to have returned for Brandon and Kelly wedding but than the accident happened. When Dylan called and told Brandon about the accident he hadn't meant for them to call off the wedding, he had called and told Brandon because he thought Brandon should know what had happened. Dylan told Brandon that he should go though with his wedding even if they couldn't be there because Brenda would have wanted him too. He feels guilty for having Brandon and Kelly call off their wedding when they have always belonged together. Dylan is angry when he thinks of all the lives that the guy that hit Brenda ruined. And he is getting away with it. Deciding that he needs to get out for a while Dylan goes for a walk not knowing where he is going.
On her way home from work Kelly is thinking about what Donna said about her always blaming Brenda for the problems she brings on herself, and begins to wonder if Donna is right. When she gets home she is shocked to find Brandon outside her door. When she asks him what he is doing there Brandon tells Kelly that he needs to talk to her. Once they are inside Kelly wants to know what Brandon wants to talk about. Brandon tells Kelly that he is moving back to California he tells her that he doesn't like his job. Kelly can tell that their is more to Brandon's moving back than just that he doesn't like his job in Washington. When she asks him if there is any other reason for his moving back, Brandon admits that there is but that he doesn't know how she is going react to what he has to say because it has to do with her and why he really called of their wedding 4 years earlier. Kelly is in shock when Brandon tells her about Brenda accident and that she is in a coma and has been since the accident 4 years ago. Brandon also tells Kelly that he had his sister transferred from the hospital in London back to California. Seeing that Kelly needs sometime to absorb what he just told her Brandon leaves and tells Kelly that he will talk to her later. After Brandon is gone Kelly is trying to sort out what she just heard and her feelings about just finding out. She is upset but she doesn't know if she is upset at Brandon for not telling the truth 4 years ago, or at Dylan for letting her believe that him and Brenda had broken up for good, or at herself for going after Dylan in the first place knowing that he was still in love with Brenda. Seeing the piece of paper that Brandon left on the table Kelly picks it up and sees that it is has the room number and floor number of Brenda hospital room.
An hour later at the Peach Pit David, Donna, Steve, and Andrea are waiting for Brandon who called and told them that he was back in town and that he wanted all of them to met at the Peach Pit. Andrea had moved back to California with her daughter after her husband was killed in a car accident six months earlier just as they were staring to put their marriage back together. When Brandon walks in everybody is glad to see him but they can see that something is up. When Steve asks Brandon what's up everyone is in shock when Brandon tells them about Brenda's accident.
Meanwhile at the hospital Dylan is coming out of a AA meeting where he wound up after he left his hotel room earlier that evening. At first he just walked around trying to keep from losing control again when he heard the message from Brandon telling him that he had Brenda transferred to California and that the police in London had closed the case on the hit and run he had wanted another drink and he was furious that the guy responsible was just running around free while the women he loved was lying in a coma because of him. He had wanted to go after the guy himself to make him pay but didn't because he know it would do no good it wouldn't bring Brenda back. Every time he thought about Brenda he thought everything that had been though to be together. Especially all the fights Brenda had with her father over him. Brenda's father never really liked him he never thought he was good enough for his daughter. Dylan recalls the biggest fight Brenda had with her father over him, although Brenda and her father had a lot of fights over him back in high school. The biggest one was after he found out that they were living together in London, they had been back together for three months. When Jim first found out that they were together he was furious, he tried tell Brenda that he had always been right about Dylan all along and brought up all the things that happened after she had moved to London. But he was to late because Dylan had already told Brenda everything including his battle with drugs and alcohol, and Brenda wouldn't back down she told her father that had he trusted her then none of that ever would have happened. Although he didn't agree and because he didn't want to lose his daughter Jim backed down and accepted the fact that Dylan was apart of Brenda's life weather he liked it or not. After realizing all the times that they had found their way back to each other no matter what Dylan decided that he wasn't going to just sit back and wait he done enough of that already. He was going to find a way to reach Brenda no matter what it took. But he also knew that it wasn't going to be easy seeing her like that and so he went to the AA meeting before going to see her.
