A/N-Another chapter for this story. I hope you enjoy it.


Brianna walks into the kitchen to see everyone sitting with their food in front of them.

"Sorry," Brianna apologized as she sat down next to Skye at the table.

As everyone gathered food on their plates Brianna smiled. The dynamic between Brooke and Haley reminded her about her mother and Sara.

"So, have you all been friends since high school?" Brianna asks as she puts her fork down on her plate.

Haley looked at Brooke and Peyton.

"No, we weren't always, but one day we just started hanging out and that was the start of a beautiful friendship," Haley says with a smile. "Brianna, what do you like to do?" Haley asks.

Brianna sat and thought about what she liked to do, but what she liked to do involved her little brother.

"Brianna, you go hide and I will count, okay?" Jacob asks with a smile.

"Why am I the one that has to hide all the time? Maybe I want to find you."

"But Bri, I am the man of the house and you have to do as I say."

"Whatever you say Jakey."

Brianna looks at Haley and smiles.

"Hide and seek."

Skye looks at Brianna and smiles.

"I love that game!" Jamie explains.

"We'll have to play some time."

"She loves to write also," Skye says with a smile.

"That I do…enough questions. Haley, did you really get married as a junior?"

"I did however I don't suggest that you do it."

"Not gonna happen," Brooke and Peyton say in unison.

Brianna looks at them and smiles.

"I wasn't planning on it, but I wouldn't rule that out as an option."


Everyone at the table finished their dinner and Jamie decided to show Skye and Brianna his room. Down in the kitchen Haley, Peyton and Brooke sat around talking.

"I think that tonight was a success," Haley says as she washes her dishes.

"Brianna looked like she had fun didn't she babe?" Brooke asks her wife.

"Yeah, I think it helped to have Skye here though."

"Skye is good for her. Everyone needs at least one good friend in their life," Haley suggests.

"We love you Haley," Brooke and Peyton state.

"I love you guys, too," Haley says as she blows bubbles off of her hands.


Upstairs Jamie is lying down on her bed with his pet rabbit Chester while Skye and Brianna are sitting on the floor. Brianna's head is on Skye's shoulder. Jamie looks down at the floor and smiles.

"Skye I like Brianna, she's good for you," Jamie says with a smile. Brianna turns to Skye and raises an eyebrow.

"What does he mean?"

"When I told him that I dig chicks he started trying to hook me up."

"He's six."

"He maybe six, but he is an intelligent six year old."

"I'm still here you know?" Jamie states as he puts Chester in his cage.

"Sorry buddy," Skye says with a smile.

"You should just kiss her Skye, you know you want to."

Skye blushes and Brianna laughs.

"Alrighty than, I think we should head back down stairs."

"Good idea," Skye says.


Brianna, Skye and Jamie walk downstairs. They enter the kitchen and see Haley, Brooke and Peyton laughing.

"Hey Brooke, Peyton is it okay if I walk Skye home and then just meet you at your house?" Brianna asks.

"Brianna, it's your home too, but yeah it's fine with me, Peyton?"

"Sure, don't be late."

"I won't," Brianna states. "Thanks for the great Haley," Brianna says before she and Skye leave the kitchen and make their way out of the house.

Jamie sighs and turns to Peyton and Brooke.

"Why are girl's so afraid to tell each other how they feel?" Jamie asks.

"What do you mean buddy?" Brooke asks.

"How come Skye won't just kiss Brianna?"

Haley, Brooke and Peyton start laughing.

"It's complicated," Peyton states after the laughing subsides.

"Adults always say that," Jamie grumbles before walking back up to his room.


Brianna and Skye are walking up to Skye's house and stop on her porch.

"Do you trust Brooke and Peyton?" Brianna asks.

"With my life, why?"

Brianna takes a breath and looks at Skye.

"I think I am going to tell them. I need to get it out of the way and if I don't I won't ever tell them. I've only been staying with them for like 2 days though."

Skye grabs Brianna's hand.

"Hey, if you want to tell them tell them. They won't tell anyone else. I promise you that. Brianna, trust them."

Brianna nods her head.

"Okay."

"Are you going to be on tonight?"

"If you want me to be," Brianna states.

"Yeah, then you can tell me how it went."

"Okay, I will."

"Brianna, I still have my shoulder you can cry on if you need to," Skye says with a smile.

"I'll keep that in mind, goodnight Skye."

Skye leans to Brianna's side and kisses her cheek.

"Goodnight Brianna," Skye says before going into her house.

Brianna looks at the closed door with a smile on her face.


Brianna walks into the house and sees Brooke and Peyton watching TV. She smiles and sits down on the couch. She grabs the remote and shuts off the TV. Brooke and Peyton look at her and she sighs.

"I'm not good at this stuff. Dealing with feelings talking about my past which I kind of hoped you wouldn't need to know, but I you do. I'm going to tell you what happened, but I need for you two not to interrupt and don't give me pity. If you can't do that then I won't tell you," Brianna says as she looks at Brooke and Peyton seriously.

Brooke grabs Peyton's hand and squeezes.

"We won't interrupt," Peyton states while Brooke nods her head.

"My mother's name was Laura Rae Evans and my brother's name was Jacob Tyler Evans. 2 years ago I lost them in an accident which I was supposed to be in, but at the last minute I changed my mind," Brianna starts to get tears in her eyes and Peyton grabs her hand. "I remember it like it was yesterday. I was 13 and I had just lost my entire family. I had no idea where my father was because he left when I was like three. Anyway, for the past 2 years I have been grieving and I am still grieving. It hurts that they are gone and nothing can change that. My family was I all I had and now I don't have that," Brianna's tears fall and she closes her eyes. "My brother was 11 when he died and he was best friend. Jamie reminds me a lot of him which was why I freaked out earlier." Brianna looks at Brooke and Peyton and they both have tears in their eyes. "At times I am going to be hard to deal with and I apologize in advance for that. That's all I have to say for now," Brianna finishes while wiping the moisture off of her cheeks and her eyes.

"I lost my mom. Both moms actually."

"You had two moms?" Brianna asks.

"I was adopted. It's a story I'll tell you someday, but I want to thank you for telling us Brianna. I know it was hard for you. It was hard to listen to," Peyton says.

"Thanks," Brianna states.

Brianna hugs Peyton and Brooke which surprised them all. When Brianna is upstairs Brooke lays her head on her wife's shoulder.

"It looks like you too have more in common than I thought."

"Yeah, it explains a lot though. The reason she has been avoiding writing a paper in my class. She feels as though she doesn't have family anymore."

"But she does have a family Peyton. She has us doesn't she?"

"Yeah, baby, we're her family."
