A/N-I guess some people had gotten confused as to who Brianna's brother's name was and I am writing this note to set it straight although it gets explained at the end of this chapter, but her brother's name is Jacob Tyler Evans, but Brianna calls him Jake or Tyler. Danny was the brother of Brianna's social worker Mary. Sorry you all got confused…or at least some of you.
Part 2 Ch. 2: Closer Than You Think
Brianna walks down to the kitchen to eat breakfast and sees Peyton and Brooke looking at her.
"What?"
Peyton raises an eyebrow.
"One, don't use that tone with us and two, you only did it to yourself."
"I guess it's obvious what side you two are on. It's unbelievable really. I'm out of here."
"You better go to school!" Brooke yells out before the door slams.
Peyton turns to Brooke and frowns.
"Do you think she's going to go to school?"
Brooke shrugs her shoulders.
Brianna makes her way towards Red Bedroom with Records. Maybe if she listened to music then she can get out of her bad mood that's she's been in for about a week. Brianna makes her way and sits down on the couch and starts listening to the radio, but frowns when she hears the song. It was a song that brought many memories to her mind.
Can you feel this magic in the air?
It must have been the way you kissed me
Fell in love when I saw you standing there
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
It must have been the way
Today was a fairytale
"I love you Skyler Richardson."
"Are you sure about this?"
"Was that your first time?"
"We need to remember this moment. We need a song."
Brianna wipes the tears from her eyes and shuts off the radio. She looks up when she hears someone walking in, but she figured it was Peyton. Boy was she wrong.
"What are you doing here?"
Skye walks out to the lunch table and meets up with Chelsea.
"Hey girly, how are you holding up?" Chelsea asks before taking a bite out of her fry.
"Chels, you ask me that every day."
"Well I mean it every day."
"I'm okay. It still hurts."
Chelsea looks at Skye who is busy looking around.
"She's not here."
Skye turns her attention to Chelsea.
"What?"
"She's not here. I'm assuming you are looking for Brianna."
"I don't know what you are talking about."
Chelsea smirks.
"Yes, I do, but she hasn't been here or she's really good at avoiding you."
"I don't know what to do Chelsea. God I still love her."
"Skye, you did the right thing even though you are hurting."
"I just want to know if she's hurting too."
"If it makes you feel any better. I haven't seen her with Mark at all."
Skye glares at Chelsea and digs into her food.
"I didn't think you would remember me."
Brianna glares at the man in front of her.
"I have a good memory."
"I was just wondering if Peyton was here."
"She's not obviously. What the hell are you doing here anyway Jacob?"
"Actually it's Tyler now."
"No, it's not I would know considering you named my brother Jacob. You don't get Tyler I call him Tyler. You don't get that."
Tyler steps forward closer to Brianna.
"Brianna, just let me explain."
"Explain what? You just leave. You weren't there for you sister's funeral. You weren't there for my mom's funeral. You weren't there for your son's funeral. You weren't there for me at all so don't come any closer. Don't explain to me a thing. You don't exist to me at all."
Brianna wipes away the tears.
"It was too hard to go. I didn't have a right to go," Tyler whispers.
"Why are you here?"
"I just wanted to see it worked, if Peyton and Brooke are expecting."
Brianna narrows her eyes.
"How would you know anything about that? Those are my adopted parents."
Tyler raises his eyebrow in surprise.
"I didn't know that. I helped them."
Brianna closes her eyes and sighs.
"You are their sperm donor."
"Yeah."
"I have to get out of here."
"Brianna, wait!"
Brianna stops and shakes her head.
"I don't think so, but it worked. Don't talk to me, don't ask about me just leave me alone. Just do this one thing for me, please dad just do it."
Tyler nods his head and Brianna runs out of Red Bedroom Records.
Peyton walks into her bedroom to see Brooke sitting on the bed working on sketches. She was going to do maternity clothes as soon as she could start the line.
"That was the school, Brianna never showed."
Brooke sighs.
"We have to do something Peyton. She can't be acting like this."
Peyton sits down next to her wife.
"The break-up changed her."
"She's just heartbroken. You remember how Nathan was when Haley left him."
Peyton nods her head.
"Yeah, but it sucks because I can't do anything to help her."
Brianna walks into the room surprising Peyton and Brooke, but before either woman can yell at their daughter Brianna starts talking.
"How do you know Tyler Stevens?"
"Um, he was my business advisor."
"His name's not Tyler."
Brianna sits down on the bed and sighs.
"I don't understand."
"I ran into him at your record store. That's where I went."
Peyton and Brooke can see the tears in her eyes.
"Honey, what's a matter?"
"When my brother died I never thought that I was going be a sister again. It wouldn't be possible, but then I meet you two and it's happening now. The odds were so against me. My brother's name is Jacob Tyler Evans. He was named after our dad. Our dad's last name was Stevens and his first name was Jacob and I saw him today. He wanted to see how it went."
Peyton looks at her wife in shock.
"That would mean?"
"Brooke is carrying my little brother or sister."
"Brother," Brooke whispers.
Brianna starts crying and Peyton pulls her closer to her and into her arms.
"It's going to be okay Brianna."
"I screwed everything u-up." Brianna sobs into Peyton's shoulder.
Brooke gets tears in her eyes at seeing her daughter crying. She was finally getting her emotions out and she hopes that it would be the first step into becoming Brianna Evans again.
A/N-Brooke is carrying Brianna's half-brother. I bet you didn't see that coming. I had that planned from the beginning. Since I already figured out the first name and some of you know what it is I want to have a vote on the middle name. Those of you who have guessed the first name will definitely help out with this and I promise by next chapter you will know the entire name. Just in case you were wondering. The last name will be Sawyer.
Middle Name: Vote Please
Marcus, Conner, Adam, Gabriel or Davis
