Chapter 11: Never mess with Brooke Davis

"Tammy you gotta talk to us then. We can't help you if you don't tell us that your feeling like this. You are not alone Tammy, not anymore. I am here for you okay. I love you. No matter what you do I would never give you up. I told this to Sam once and now I am telling you. 'My home is your home now Tammy and it is going to be for as long as you want it to be.' Do you understand?" asked Brooke.

"Yeah. But can we please talk about this some other time. I have to talk to you about something way more important." said Tammy.

"Okay, what is it?" asked Brooke.

Suddenly Tammy's expression went serious. She didn't know exactly how Brooke and Haley were going to react but she knew that they were going to be pissed off. Sam was after all Brooke's daughter in a sense. Brooke loved her and would do anything for her. Tammy just felt guilty for keeping the secret this long. This was her sister after all. No matter how much Sam didn't want to admit the truth it didn't mean that Tammy was just going to let her get hurt.

"Rebecca is hurting Sam." said Tammy.


"She's what?" asked Brooke.

"She's hurting Sam. She hits her and stuff. I saw the bruises." said Tammy, "Thats what she is hiding."

Tammy knew that Brooke was really angry. She looked up at Haley who was just as shocked but she was more calm. Tammy knew that she was going to have a lot of explaining to do and she regretted keeping it a secret for this long but she didn't know how to tell Brooke. Plus she wasn't even a hundred percent sure that Rebecca was the one that was hurting Sam. Who else could it be though? Did Rebecca have a boyfriend?

"Tammy are you sure? I mean this is a strong accusation. We can't just go barging in there if you aren't positive." said Haley rationally.

"No I am not positive that it is Rebecca but who else could it be? Plus even if it isn't her she isn't protecting Sam either so she is just as responsible. Sam is supposed to be her daughter, right? So why hasn't she involved cops or Brooke?" said Tammy in response.

Haley knew that Tammy had a good point. Rebecca was supposed to be taking care of Sam and if Sam was getting hurt it had to be by her. Haley hadn't seen any of the bruises but it would explain the way she had been acting. She guessed that that was why Sam had said that it was complicated now but Sam would never just let someone hurt her. Rebecca had to have some kind of leverage or was threatening her.

Brooke still had not said anything. Truthfully she didn't know what to say. She had let her daughter go and live with the person who had given Sam up. She should have never believed that it was a good idea for her to go. She should have never had faith that people like Rebecca could ever change.

"Brooke.." said Tammy becoming concerned.

Brooke's hands clenched into fists. She was so pissed off it wasn't even funny. All she could think about was going over to Rebecca's and punching her dead in the face and that was exactly what she was going to do.

"Let's go." said Brooke.

"Go where?" asked Haley.

"To Rebecca's. I am not letting her hurt my daughter any longer. I should have never let her leave in the first place especially with that bitch." spat Brooke.

"Brooke we can't just barge in there when we don't even know what is going. Plus there is a reason why Sam didn't come to you Brooke. Or me or Tammy for that matter." said Haley.

"Well were not going to figure it out standing here." said Brooke.

Brooke turned around and began walking back towards the others with Haley and Tammy following close behind. Tammy was kind of worried that Brooke was going to do something that she was going to regret. Tammy didn't want her to do anything stupid so she was glad that Brooke left her gun home in the safety lock box. She just had to make sure that Haley was driving and they didn't stop at the house first.

"Haley.." said Tammy in a low voice so Brooke couldn't hear her.

Haley looked at her.

"Don't let Brooke drive and don't stop at the house." begged Tammy.

"Okay." said Haley.

Haley knew that Tammy was worried and she knew exactly where she was coming from. The X thing came back to mind. Haley didn't want to see Brooke do anything stupid either. She had Tammy and Sam to think about and Haley knew that Brooke would do anything when it came to someone hurting the people that she loved.

Once they got back to everyone else Nathan automatically knew that something was up. He could see that Brooke was angry about something and it had to be serious because he had known Brooke since elementary school. Brooke Davis was a rock.

"Brooke what's going on?" asked Nathan as he finished packing up the cooler .

"Rebecca is abusing Sam." said Brooke.

"What?" exclaimed Nathan.

Nathan knew how much Sam meant to Brooke and he knew that she had been literally broken down when Sam left to be with Rebecca. He had always looked at Sam like a niece and had even been willing to take Sam in from the beginning when they first found out that Sam was sleeping in a car in auto shop. He didn't like the fact of someone hurting Sam any more then Brooke did and when that person was her own birth mother it made everything that much worse.

"What are you going to do?" asked Nate.

"I'm going to go to that house and kick that bitches ass for putting her hands on my daughter." said Brooke angrily.

Brooke got some things and walked toward the parking lot. Clay and Quinn just looked on. They had heard the whole conversation and couldn't believe it. They had never seen Brooke this angry before. She was usually calm, well before Sam had left. But even after she wasn't filled with so much rage, she was just really sad.

"Mama why is Aunt Brooke mad?" asked Kayla.

"I don't know baby." said Quinn putting her daughters shirt over her bathing suit.

Quinn looked at Clay and she knew that he was just as worried as she was. From the first time that Clay had met Sam they hadn't really gotten along because of the whole scandal with the woman being pregnant. Sam hadn't liked the way that Clay had delt with the issue in the beginning. She had told him that Nathan was like a uncle to her and she knew that he would never ever jeopardize his marriage with Haley or his son Jamie. That Nathan loved them more than anything in the world and that the bitch who made the allegations was a liar.

From that day when the woman had gone on Dan's show and confessed that she had indeed lied Clay had truly respected Sam's judge of character and apologized for ever doubting Nathan. Clay didn't understand how someone would want to hurt Sam. For one she was just a kid and two she was a good person. It didn't make any sense to him.

They all packed up the cars with their stuff. When they were done Brooke went to open the door to the driver's side but Haley closed the door shut before she could try and get in.

"Haley, what the hell?" asked Brooke.

"You're in no condition to drive Brooke. Just sit in the back with Tammy and Jamie. I will drive okay." said Haley.

"Haley I don't have time to argue with you." said Brooke.

"Well then you better hurry up and get in the car." said Haley.

Brooke sighed in defeat.

"Fine." said Brooke.

Brooke got in the back with Tammy and Jamie while Nathan and Haley were up front. Everyone put their seat belts on and Haley began to drive. Brooke could only think about one thing, Sam. Tammy got out her cell phone. She had one missed call from a number she had never seen before and a voice mail. Tammy called her voice mail and put in her pin. She had one new message.

"Hey Tammy." said the voice on the message, "I just wanted to say that I hope you have fun at the beach today with Brooke and the others. Tell them I said hi okay. I just wanted to talk to you but I guess your already there so I will talk to you later or in school. I love you Tammy and I never want you to forget that okay, no matter what happens."

Tammy listened as the message ended. She ended the call and just starred at her phone. She couldn't help but notice how sad Sam's voice was. She realized that Sam hadn't been intentionally avoiding her she was just trying to keep her safe. She didn't want her to follow her to Rebecca's because she didn't want her to get hurt too.

"Are we going to bring Sam home?" asked Jamie.

It was the first thing had sad since he found out that Sam was being abused by Rebecca.

"Yes." said Brooke in a matter of fact voice.

"She called me." confessed Tammy.

Everyone looked at her except Haley because she was focussed on the road.

"What did she say?" asked Nathan.

"I didn't talk to her. She just left a message. She said to tell everyone she said hi and that she hopes we have fun and that she loves me and for me not to forget that. No matter what happened." said Tammy, "She sounded so sad and numb."

Brooke put her arm around Tammy. Tammy was scared that Sam was going to do something or Rebecca was going to hurt her again. Tammy didn't want to lose Sam. She didn't want her to get hurt. She was scared and she knew that everyone else was too. She would never forgive herself if anything happened to Sam.

"I'm sorry I didn't tell you sooner." said Tammy on the verge of tears.

Brooke let Tammy go and turned a little so she was looking at Tammy's face.

"Tammy look at me." said Brooke.

Tammy did. Brooke tried to calm down. She was still overrun with the fact of Sam being hurt but she pushed that aside for the moment. She had to let Tammy know that she had done nothing wrong. She was just scared.

"Tammy this is not your fault. You were afraid and didn't know how to tell me or anyone for that matter. It's okay. Everything will be fine. Sam is going to come home and everything is going to go back to normal." said Brooke.

"But your normal was with Sam, not me." said Tammy.

"Then we'll make a new normal. Tammy listen to me. Tree Hill is your home okay. It's me and Sam and Haley, Nathan, Jamie, Quinn, Clay, Kayle, and Seth." said Brooke with a smile, taking a breath.

Tammy couldn't help but smile either.

"Okay?" asked Brooke.

"Okay." said Tammy.

"Good now let's go get Sam back." said Brooke.


After an hour of driving they were finally in Tree Hill. Brooke had given Haley the address to Rebecca's place and they were looking for the street. Everyone was on edge realizing that every second counted. They didn't know what Sam was going through at the moment but they knew that Rebecca could possibly be hurting Sam at that moment and she needed them. Haley had told Clay and Quinn to take the twins home. They didn't need to see what was about to happen. She tried to make Jamie go with them but he wouldn't. He said that he needed to be there for Sam.

"There's the street." said Tammy.

Haley turned onto the street and stopped in front of the brown house with the white picket fence. Tammy was the first to get out of the car. She ran up the stairs.

"Tammy!" yelled Brooke after her.

She saw Sam in the window. She heard a crash and rushed to the door. No one answered but she could hear voices. One of them was yelling loudly and angrily. The other one, Sam's, was crying. Rebecca was hurting her. Tammy banged on the door.

"Open the door Rebecca!" yelled Tammy as she continued to bang, "Leave my sister alone!"

Tammy knew she wasn't stopping. Soon Brooke was at her side along with Nathan. Haley had stayed in the car with Jamie.

"She's hurting Sam." said Tammy.

"Step back!" ordered Nathan.

Brooke grabbed Tammy's hand and pulled her back away from the door. Nathan kicked the door in. He put his hands up to protect him self from the shards of wood that had broken off of the door and were flying all over the place. Brooke covered Tammy's face with her arm.

Nathan, Brooke, and Tammy entered the house. Sam was on the floor unconscious and Rebecca stood over her. She looked up at Brooke and smiled.

"I see you brought my other daughter home to me." said Rebecca.

"I am not your daughter and you are not my mother." said Tammy angrily.

"I beg to differ considering that Sam came back to me instead of staying with Brooke Davis over there." said Rebecca.

"Shut up!" said Brooke.

"How does it feel Brooke? How does it feel to get something ripped away from you in the blink of an eye?" asked Rebecca, "I can tell you one thing. It must not feel good that Sam didn't go to you for help. Aren't you supposed to be her 'mother'."

She didn't look sorry in the least bit. She looked satisfied which made Brooke's blood boil. She was about to go after her when Nathan put his hand out and pointed to Sam. She was stirring slightly and Brooke could here grabbed Rebecca and Brooke went to Sam. Tammy took out her cell and called the police.

When she was done she put her phone away and went by Brooke and Sam. Sam was beat up pretty bad.

"Sam.." said Tammy.

Sam was pretty out of it. Tammy held her hand and looked up at Nathan who looked on sadly. He hated to see Sam so hurt and vulnerable. It wasn't like it was supposed to be. Sam wasn't supposed to be hurt. She was supposed to be in the safety of Brooke's home surrounded by all the people who loved her to death, her real family. Rebecca wasn't that.

Suddenly Rebecca elbowed Nathan in the stomach and he released his grip on Rebecca surprised. Rebecca pulled a switch blade out of her pocket. Tammy knew she was going to try and hurt Brooke.

"BROOKE!" shouted Tammy pointing to Rebecca.

Brooke turned just in time. She grabbed Rebbecca's hand and twisted it so that she dropped the knife. Then she punched her in the face as hard as she could knocking her out.

"That is for messing with me and my family bitch!" said Brooke.

Sam began to come to. She felt a lot of pain. Rebecca had really done it this time. All she could think about was how she was going to cover up the bruises this time and how bad they were going to be. She wondered if Tammy would notice again. She hoped not. Suddenly she began to open her eyes and she saw someone and her mind went blank. It was Brooke.

"Mom.." said Sam with tears in her eyes.

She hoped that this wasn't a dream. She closed her eyes then opened them to make sure that this was real and it was. She was really there.

"Hey baby you're going to be okay." said Brooke.

"I wanna go home." cried Sam.

Brooke took Sam in her arms and hugged her tight. Hearing those four beautiful words over and over in her head.


There you go.

I hope you all liked it
