Brooke's P.O.V.

I pack up my stuff that I brought to Michael's, so I can go back to Luke and Vic's place.

Stopping outside Ella's room, I can hear her and Michael talking.

"I don't want Brooke to leave." El tells Michael.

I stand outside her room, waiting to hear what they say.

He sighs, "Why?"

"Is Brooke my new mummy?" Ella asks.

"What? Why would you ask that?" Michael questions.

"Because Brooke does everything mummy used to." She replies.

"You're four, how do you know this stuff?" He mutters.

"I'm smart!" She exclaims.

I finally knock on the door, slowly entering.

"Hey." Michael smiles.

"Is everything going okay?" I ask.

"Yea. Right, El?" Michael chuckles.

Ella nods, "It's okay!"

"El, let's head downstairs, we're gonna bring Brooke back to Luke and Vic's."

She sighs, "Fine."

Michael takes my bag and heads downstairs and Ella looks up at me.

"Brooke? Can you be my new mummy?" Ella questions.

"Baby girl.." I mutter picking her up, "You don't want that.."

"But my mummy isn't here anymore!" She whines.

"That's okay. Your dad is still here." I reply.

"But-"

"El, I can't." I sigh before bringing her out to the car where Michael is.

"But I love you." She mumbles, cuddling into me.

"I-I love you, El. You're the sweetest little girl I've ever met." I whisper, pressing a kiss to her forehead.

Michael comes over to me and takes Ella, putting her into the car.

"Alright, let's go."

-

"Brooke, how are you doing?" Vic asks.

"I guess I'm alright." I reply.

"Well Liv's room is now yours again." Vic smiles.

"Is Liv here?" I ask.

"Yea. Somewhere upstairs. Why?"

"Gotta talk to her." I mutter, heading upstairs to find Liv.

I go to put my bag in Liv's room, and Liv is there laying on her bed.

"Thank god you're here. I need to talk to you." I mutter.

"How was the week?" She asks as I sit on the end of her bed.

"Well.."

"What? What happened?" She asks.

"Well, there was one time when I made out with Michael but-"

"What?!"

"I feel ridiculous." I mumble.

"You're still married.."
