His Money Tree

Brooke waited by Thane's bedroom door for him to come back from speaking to the younger looking beauty. A million thoughts ran through her head all at once, as she waited for him.

However, her thoughts were disrupted by the sound of her phone ringing. She quickly picked it up and answered, unsure of who the unknown number belonged to.

"Hello?"

"Brooke is that you? It's your father calling." Scott said, his voice raspy.

The corners of Brooke's lips curved into a forceful smile. "Hi, dad." Her unnatural voice crooned.

She recalled exchanging numbers with him last night, but still, she didn't think he would be sober enough to call her at seven am.

"Can you come pick me up at the hospital later today? I'm an old man, and I can't drive myself back." He asked, telling her rather than asking.

Brooke rolled her tongue around her mouth, she didn't think his injuries were enough to stop him from driving, but then again, he wasn't young.
