A/N: Yeah…it's only been a year since I updated! Sorry! Well instead of trying to apologize while it took me SO long to write this chapter, I'll just give it to you guys! Oh, and I don't own anything…etc.
Brooke and Jenny finished the ride to the mall in silence. After they got there, the pair walked
around for a good half-hour without talking. Finally, Brooke decided to break the silence.
"Abercrombie sound good?" "Sure" Jenny replied nonchalantly, and the two walked into the store.
After walking around for a while, with Jenny picking up things here and there, Jenny told Brooke
she was ready to make her purchases. "Don't you think you should try that on?" Brooke asked
skeptically, eyeing the 2 pairs of jeans, mini skirt, pair of Capri's, and at least 3 or 4 shirts Jenny
was holding in a pile. "No, I know my sizes here" Jenny replied defensively. "Well I think your Dad
might just flip out when he gets that credit card bill, so why don't you try some of it on to make
sure you like it?" Brooke smiled, trying her best go convince Jenny to try on her new attire.
"Yeah…. Your probably right" Jenny surprisingly gave in. Brooke followed her to the fitting
rooms, and took a seat in a plush, leather chair outside the door. After about 5 minutes, she threw
the Capri's and mini-skirt over the top of the door "Brooke, can you get me one size down in each
of these?" "No problem" Brooke replied, grabbing each of the garments. She looked at the tag in
the back of the skirt "Down from a 2!" she muttered to herself. "Oh man….this is not good". She
finally found each of the items in a size 1, and went back and tossed them to Jenny. Finally, after
having to get Jenny size 0's for both pairs of jeans and having to exchange 2 of the size 'small'
shirts for Extra Smalls, Brooke once again took a seat in the leather chair "Oh..yeah she really
knows her sizes" Brooke thought to herself. A few minutes later she could hear Jenny finishing up
in the dressing room "Wait Jen…I want to see!" Brooke giggled. "Um…I'm only gunna buy one
pair of jeans and 2 of the shirts" Jenny replied. " Well let me see those then!" Brooke laughed. One
of the only reasons Brooke even considered wanting to have children at some point in her life was
so that she could have a daughter to shop with. "Fine" Jenny said, sounding slightly annoyed. A
couple minutes later she came out wearing the jeans and one of the cami's she was planning on
buying. Brooke smiled "That looks awesome!" "Yeah it's okay" Jenny answered in monotone and
went back into the dressing room. After she had closed the door, Brooke let out a sigh. The shirt
had been fine, but the Jeans looked like they were a little loose. The original jeans that Jenny had
had Brooke swap were size 3's. Since Jenny had been so adamant that she knew her sizes, Brooke
knew that this must've been a recent change. And now that she thought about it, the 2 shirts Jenny
had decided on were both the extra smalls. As Jenny exited the fitting room, Brooke really looked at
her. She was definitely thin, but no ordinary person walking down the street would think anything
of it. Lots of girls were thin! And from what Brooke knew, Jenny was always thin, but not THIS
thin. Her thoughts were broken when Jenny finished giving the guy back her number and unwanted
clothing and said to Brooke "Okay this is all I'm gunna get!" "Sounds good" Brooke replied and
started walking towards the register to get in line. She turned around just in time to see Jenny swap
her pair of jeans with another pair on the same rack. She turned around quickly before Jenny could
see that she saw her. "Hey Jen just give me your stuff because your dad just told me to charge
everything and then he'd pay me. Can you go to the coke machine by entrance and grab me a Diet
Coke and I'll meet you there?"Brooke said, handing her a few singles. "Yeah No problem" Jenny
replied, giving her the pile of clothes. As soon as Brooke saw Jenny was out the door she looked at
the tag in the replacement jeans. "00" she mumbled to herself. In any ordinary case, Brooke would
have been jealous. But not with Jenny. It was even more obvious that Jenny had a problem, as she
hadn't wanted Brooke to know that she was buying a different size. After Brooke paid, she met
Jenny by the exit to the store. They strolled around the mall for a bit before Brooke wordlessly
followed Jenny into Victoria's Secret. She watched as Jenny looked through the underwear and
other things in the section of the store designated for the "Pink" line of clothing. Brooke fumbled
through some of the underwear on the table, commenting to Jenny on how cute some of them were
"Oh Jen these are so cute!" she exclaimed, holding up a pair with ruffles. Jenny giggled a little bit
and then began wondering around the rest of the store. Brooke stayed where she was, pretending to
look through different colors of sweatpants while watching Jenny from afar. After 10 minutes, she
saw Jenny go up to the cash register and pay for whatever she was holding. As soon as Jenny
finished Brooke put her head down so it would look as if she hadn't seen anything. Jenny came over
to her and looked through sweatpants for a few minutes before saying "Ready to go?" "Yup!"
Brooke said a little too quickly and the two walked out.
After a couple more hours, $250 for Jenny (Jake was going to LOVE this bill), and some coco
Chanel perfume for Brooke, they made their
way back to the car. Jenny had surprisingly become much more outgoing as the day went on and her
and Brooke were laughing as they threw all of the bags in the backseat. This is when Brooke eyed
the Victoria's Secret bag from earlier that day. When they were seated in the car and Brooke was
pulling out of the parking garage, she casually asked Jenny " So why did you buy your own stuff at
Victoria's Secret? Why not hit Daddy with the bill?" she smiled, eyebrows raised. Jenny giggled,
"Because he would FREAK when he saw the receipt.. Trust me it wouldn't be good". Brooke let
out a little laugh and then asked, in her usual prying way, "So…what did you get?" She said with a
mischievous smile. She could tell by the look on Jenny's face that for a second, she wasn't going to
show her but then changed her mind. Brooke was pretty sure that in Jenny's mind, at the moment
she was the big sister she never had. Jenny leaned in the backseat to grab the bag and pulled out a
pink and white lacy thong, and a black G-string. She reached into the bag again and pulled out a
frilly, red, lacy bra. "Aren't they SO cute?" Jenny said to Brooke excitedly. Brooke was doing
everything in her power not to gawk, and instead, wanting to gain Jenny's trust at this point in time,
so she just smiled back and said "Adorable!" She knew she needed to intervene here, but she really
didn't know how. She didn't want to be a "mom" and tell her that her choices were "inappropriate".
She wanted to be fun! But, in the back of her mind she knew she needed to be the adult. Suddenly a
light bulb went on in her head. "Hey Jenny can you grab me my cell phone from my purse reallly
fast?" Jenny handed her the phone and Brooke flipped through the address book quickly before
hitting the call button. After two rings, she heard a hello on the other end, "TUTOR GIRL?"
Brooke squelaed into the phone. "Brooke? What's up!' Haley James- Scott exclaimed back. Brooke
filled her in on how Jake was away and she was watching Jenny, and asked if they could stop by.
"Sure!" Haley replied. "I know Samantha and Ryan would love to see Jenny, and I want you to meet
the new little one!" Brooke giggled. "I know I want to meet her too…. I want to talk to you about
some stuff, okay?" Haley could sense the uncertainty in her voice. "Sounds good! I'll see you in a
little bit!" The two hung up and a few minutes later, Brooke was pulling into the driveway at the
home of Nathan and Haley Scott. Before Brooke could even ring the doorbell, Haley flung open the
door and shrieked as she wrapped Brooke into a huge hug. "I missed you SO much!" Haley
exclaimed. "Oh I know me too!" Brooke sighed back. Whenever she came back for a visit, she knew
it should happen more often. Haley hugged Jenny, and Brooke noticed the look quick once-over
Haley gave her. After they went inside, Jenny went into the playroom to entertain Samantha and
Ryan, who, according to Haley, absolutley adored her. Brooke and Haley sat in the kitchen and
made small talk for awhile, while Brooke 'ooed'and 'awwed' over Baby Megan. Finally, Haley
popped the question " So what's bugging you Brookie?" Brooke sighed. She told her the whole
story of Jenny, from the tears the day she arrived to their day at the mall. When she finished, all
Haley could say was "Wow." She sat, lost in thought for a minute, before she spoke again. "Ya
know.. I always felt like since I lived the closest, I should maybe try to see Jenny more, you know..
be kind of like the mother Nikki never was. But then the twins were born, and then Megan… I don't
know, I just kind of… didn't have time, as bad as that sounds." "Haley, seriously don't think you
could've done something… I just don't know what to do! I think Jake is clueless, as a guy
obviously would be, and she needs help, or at least a like… MOM to talk to" Brooke continued.
"And like… at first that's what I was trying to be, but then when she got so mad when I like…
attacked her with questions I just decided to go for the 'awesome big sister' role instead!" Haley
and Brooke both sat in silence for a few seconds. Haley finally spoke "Well I mean… every girl
goes through the 'slutty' stage.. I don't think we can do anything about that!" Haley tried to joke.
"But I think I have an idea…"
