Brandy was done packing so she walked back downstairs to see Ava sitting on the couch.
"Where's Madison?", Brandy asked Ava.
"Bradin is with her out on the porch", Ava said.
Brandy began to walk away but Ava stopped her by calling her name.
Brandy turned around.
"Sit down", Ava said.
Brandy did as she was told.
"Bradin loves you", Ava started.
"Ava I love him too but right now I can't stomach him or Erica", Brandy cut in.
"I understand", Ava nodded.
Brandy hugged Ava and everyone else except for Erica and Bradin of course.
"I put your stuff in the trunk", Jay told Brandy after she hugged him.
Brandy nodded.
"Bye everyone", Brandy said walking to the porch where Madison and Bradin were.
Brandy watched the father of her daughter look out into the ocean.
"We have to go", Brandy said interrupting Bradin's thoughts.
Bradin nodded and walked over to Brandy.
"Can I have her this weekend?", Bradin asked.
"Yea", Brandy said grabbing her daughter.
"Brandy I never ever meant to hurt you or Madison", Bradin said.
"Then why did you do it?", Brandy asked.
"I don't know", Bradin answered.
"Whatever", Brandy replied walking away.
Brandy set Madison in her car seat and then climbed into her car.
While driving to her mothers Brandy looked through the rear view mirror at Madison and every time she looked at her she couldn't help but think of Bradin or him as Brandy called him right now.
Brandy pulled into the driveway to her mothers house and got out.
Brandy unstrapped Madison and picked her up.
Brandy just walked through her mothers door to see her mother watching TV.
"Hey mom", Brandy said.
Hilary turned around to see her beautiful daughter with her beautiful granddaughter.
"Hello", Hilary said walking over to her daughter and grabbing Madison.
"Hi yassoo", Brandy said. (Yasso is Greek for a person who is older then you and you know very well.)
Ava had called Hilary and told her what happened so Hilary wouldn't say anything.
Brandy's mother spoke good English but would often throw in Greek words Brandy would do the same.
"I think we should put up the Christmas tree today", Hilary said as she held Madison.
Brandy nodded. She missed Bradin terribly but she had to be strong for herself and Madison, she had to give Bradin a taste of his own medicine.
"We should do it today because Bradin wants Madison for the weekend", Brandy told her mother.
"Well let's get into our pajama's", Hilary said handing Madison to Brandy.
Brandy walked upstairs to her and Madison's room that they were sharing.
Brandy set Madison on the bed and got her pink onsie that Ava made for Madison.
Madison was starting to get cranky and started to whine so Brandy started blowing raspberries on her daughter's stomach.
Madison started to giggle.
Brandy got Maddy dressed and got into her own pajama's.
Brandy picked Madison up and walked down stairs to see her mother waiting for her.
Hilary had Madison's highchair ready so Brandy could set her down.
"How is Jason and Damien?", Brandy asked referring to her two brothers.
Jason is 24 and lives in Greece. Damien is 15 and lives with Brandy's step-mother and father (her father only speaks to Damien).
"Jason is well he has a new girlfriend and Damien doesn't talk to me", Hilary told Brandy.
"Oh", Brandy said placing another ornament on the tree.
"So tomorrow Bradin is picking up Madison?", Hilary asked.
"Yea, he said around 1 in the afternoon", Brandy told her mother.
"Well I'll be at work so will you be OK?", Hilary asked her daughter.
"Yep", Brandy said with no expression so Hilary couldn't read her.
Brandy looked so much like Hilary. She had gorgeous blonde hair that was natural it came from her Greek roots. She had those deep chocolate brown eyes that could make you melt and a natural tan. Brandy was tiny she was short and thin she weighed about maybe 100 lbs because she still had some baby weight on her and was about 5'2. One thing that did set Brandy aside from her mother was her accent, Hilary's accent was very thick Greek and Brandy's was more American. Brandy also had her belly button pierced, she made it look like she was naturally born to have one.
"Well I better get her in bed it's 11 pm", Brandy replied picking up Madison.
"OK I love you two", Hilary replied kissing both Brandy and Madison's cheek.
"We love you too", Brandy said walking up to her room.
Brandy set Madison in her crib and stayed up a little while and noticed Madison wouldn't fall asleep so Brandy started to sing Madison a Greek song.
Madison finally fell asleep and Brandy sat on her own bed and thought of Bradin.
Brandy couldn't help but silently cry.
She knew tomorrow she had to be strong because she would have to face Bradin.
"I love you Maddy", Brandy whispered before laying down to sleep.
(MEANWHILE AT BRADIN'S)
Bradin was miserable, he missed Brandy and Madison so much. He couldn't help what he was about to do.
He dialed Brandy's mothers phone number and waited for someone to answer.
"Hello?", A sleepy Hilary answered.
"Are they OK?", Bradin asked.
Hilary knew who it was.
"Yes Bradin they are fine, they are both fast asleep", Hilary answered.
"Oh", Bradin said.
"Now Bradin go to sleep, you have to give her time to be OK", Hilary replied.
"I never meant anything", Bradin said referring to what happened that afternoon.
"I know that but Brandy needs time to know that", Hilary replied.
"Yea", Bradin replied sadly.
"She loves you Bradin", Hilary replied.
"I love her too", Bradin said.
"OK go to bed, bye", Hilary said.
"Bye", Bradin said hanging up the phone and going to sleep.
Tomorrow Bradin would go pick up his daughter and face Brandy.
(THE NEXT DAY)
Bradin woke up with the sound of Derrick and his friends in his room.
Bradin sat up and looked around him to see Derrick and his friends looking back at him.
"Where's that really hot pregnant woman?" Derrick's friend Jordan asked referring to Brandy.
"Uh let's go to the beach Jordan", Derrick said knowing that Bradin wasn't in the mood.
Bradin looked at his clock and noticed that it was 12:45 pm.
Bradin hurried and got into the shower and got dressed and walked downstairs to get something eat really quickly.
Once Bradin got downstairs he noticed Erica was at the counter.
Erica turned around to see Bradin.
"Hey", Erica replied happily.
Bradin didn't answer. He just grabbed a banana and walked out to his car.
Bradin pulled in Hilary's drive-way and saw Brandy's car.
As Bradin got out he felt nervous.
Bradin rang the doorbell.
He heard Madison giggling and it made him smile.
Next thing he knew he heard the sound of feet walking to the door.
Brandy opened the door to see the loved of her life.
"Hey", Bradin said.
"Hi, come on in", Brandy said waiting for Bradin to come in so she could close the door.
Bradin walked in the house and Brandy closed the door.
Brandy walked into the living room to Madison and Bradin followed.
"So I packed everything you'll need for her", Brandy said.
"Brandy I don't want to be this kind of couple I want you home where you belong", Bradin replied.
Brandy bit her lip. She knew that she did belong with Bradin but she needed some closure.
"Bradin how can I trust you?", Brandy asked.
"I don't know Brandy but I do know I need you badly", Bradin replied.
Brandy sighed.
"I don't know Brae", Brandy said.
"Please", Bradin said now on his knees.
Brandy laughed.
"Your pathetic", Brandy laughed.
Bradin smiled.
"Fine you win", Brandy said raising her arms in defeat.
Bradin didn't know what to do but kiss Brandy.
"I love you", Bradin said while picking Brandy up and twirling her.
"I love you too but what about your weekend with Madison?", Brandy asked.
"I think it would be much better with you in it", Bradin replied.
"Could we maybe go out for the weekend because if I see Erica I will slug her", Brandy replied.
Bradin laughed.
"Sure", Bradin replied.
"Well how about you take Madison in your car so you can spend some time with her and I'll pack and be home in a couple hours", Brandy said.
Bradin nodded.
(Awww! our happy couple together again YAY! I know I didn't keep them apart for awhile but hey! the chapters left will probably be happy! lol review and thanks for all the reviews you guys rock!)
