Forever my cheerleader

I dont know how to help her

Brooke's PoV

Everything feels overwhelming. We had a small ceremony for Lydia last week...and beaus...just not right. She spends most of her day just daydreaming or working out. I don't know how to help her other than give her the time to grieve. But it's hard...I'm missing my beau. "Alexander I need the wardrobe for the movie" I rant walking to the back store at clothes over bros. "Is it hot in here? It feels hot in here" I mumble watching my mom and Alexander act suspiciously when they both reply "no". "Mother...another button please. The slutty MILF look is so hot you" I point to her disheveled look whilst grabbing the wardrobe for set. "I have to run...I'll see you guys tonight" I turn on my heel and march out the door heading to Julian's set.

Beaus PoV

I groan dropping from the pull up bar as the door opens and Brooke walks in. "Hi baby...why aren't you getting ready for tonight?" She asks walking towards me as I grab a bottle of water from the fridge. "Do I have to go?" I ask her breaking the cap and lifting it to my lips "it's your sister beau...you should be there. But I'm not going to make you go". I swallow my water and look down to the ground. "Quinn will be hurt if you're not there...I get it Beau...I do" "no you don't ....you don't get it because you still have both of your parents Brooke...Iv now lost both of mine. Both of my parents are dead" I mumble clenching my jaw. "So maybe you should be around your sisters...the ones who know exactly what you're going through. And I'll be there...the person that loves you the most in this world. Don't push me away Beau" Brooke whispers walking up to me and lifting my face to look at her. "I'm sorry" I whisper as she melts into my touch "Youv nothing to be sorry for".

This all seems pointless. Standing in a suit looking at these photographs. Quinn's talented and I'm proud of her...but this seems stupid. "Are you seeing something you like?" I turn to see Quinn linking her arm through mine. "Your very talented Quinny" I nod downing my drink. "And your thirsty" she giggles handing me another from the waitress walking around. I silently turn back to the photo looking at the two girls from Quinn's travels. "What are you two doing over here?" Haley asks linking her arm round my other one. "Beau was checking out my photo" Quinn smiles as Haley looks up at me "you ok?". "Mhm" I try to smile lifting the glass to my lips and downing another glass. "Is that called sisters" Haley asks pointing to the photo. "It is...it's two girls that lived in a small village" Quinn replies but in all honesty I'm not really listening to them...I'm picturing my mom...how she looked when she died. "Well you have just made your first sale" Haley chirps as Quinn claps letting me go. "No way" she beams as Brooke walks over to us "hope she gets the family discount". "She does...and so do you if you find something you like" as I look at the photo I can feel Brooke's stare "thank you Quinn. It's amazing it's all really amazing". "You need to try out the live studio...head round the back and take a photo and then it'll show up on the screens dotted around the room" Quinn smiles turning to grab a glass of champagne. "Maybe we will...what do you think handsome?......baby? .....beau?" I snap out of my daze and look at Brooke "yeh yeh mhm". I muster the best smile I can and look at Brooke...who doesn't even attempt to hide her worried face.

"Beau what can I get you?" Chase asks as I walk up to the bar. "Anything I actually don't care" I mutter passing him over my card. "Ok I'll get you a beer" he nods as I remain standing still at the bar waiting for him to return with my beer.

Brooke's PoV

I watch as Beau sinks another drink at the bar. I don't know what to do. Standing next to Beau is my mother and Julian's father who she's sleeping with. "I don't know why she's giving him the time of day after he stood her up. And besides it's gross" I moan looking from my mother to Beau. "What's gross?" Alexander asks me as I sip my champagne "the thought of my mother having sex! Blech!". "I don't think it's gross! I think she's an attractive older woman" he replies as I watch Beau order another beer...ok I need to stop this. "Ok ok stop I cannot talk about it my mother and sex with you. It's nice that your being so sweet about her...but you need to stick to what you know, which is designing super hot clothes and sleeping with skanky actressess" I wave my hand at Alexander as he laughs "thanks".
