They're our brothers

chapter forty

Brookes POV

"Thanks Liam I really like it." I said as I set the new dancewear aside.

"Well I'm glad you do." He said as I hugged him.

"Alright now B heres a present from me and Alex." My mom said as she leaned into her boyfriend next to her.

I rolled my eyes and tore the red paper open. "Mum you didnt." I screeched as she laughed and nodded.

"Thank you Mum I love it so much." I said as I admired the iphone 5s in my hand.

"You're welcome sweetheart." She said as she handed presents to Niall and the other boys.

"These are all from me and Brooke I hope you all like them, if things don't fit we can always return them." She says as the boys tear the paper open.

'Thank yous' and 'I love its' were yelled out across the room as they opened them.

"Wait wait wait I have a present for Cat." I yelled as they all hushed and she looked up at me. I pulled out the box from behind the picture of Niall and I.

"I bought it myself with my birthday money." I said as I looked down at my lap.

"B-Brooke I love it so much." She said as I wrapped my arms around her and hugged her.

She pulled away and looked down at the small circle locket with a picture of us when we were six in our first tap class together.

"Well now that we're finished how about we change into some pajamas and watch christmas films together." My mom cheers as I run up the stairs into my bedroom.

I slipped into my red and white snowflake pants and white V-neck, I then pulled on my white fuzzy socks.

"Brooke are you coming." Niall said as he knocked on my door then pushed it open a little bit.

"Yeah but you want to be a good big brother and carry me down stairs." I say as I hopped on his back and he walked down stairs.

Niall sets me on the floor and I take a seat beside Niall on the couch. The other boys and their families left a few minutes ago and now my mom, Niall, Alex, and I are sitting in the family room by the fire watching Elf.

"Harry said that they'll be over tomorrow for lunch around twelve thirty." Niall says as he locks his phone and shoves it into his pocket.

"Then after we eat Harry and I are taking Brooke and Hannah shopping." He adds as my mom nods and lays her head on Alex.

"Mum I'm taking Brooke upstairs so 'santa' can come tonight, goodnight." Niall says as he picks me up and walks up the stairs.

Niall lays me on my bed and switches off the light.

"Ni will you sleep in here with me tonight." I whisper as my eyes flutter closed.

"Of course B." He says as I slid over in my bed and he slips his shrirt over his head.

"Goodnight B I love you." Niall whispers and kisses the top of my head as I drift off to sleep.

*******************************

"Brooke, Brooke, Brooklyn Horan get up 'santa' came last night." Niall says as I sit up and slip on my glasses.

"You're so obnouxious Ni." I groan as I get out of bed and head to my bathroom. I pull out my retainer and brush my teeth.

"Brooklyn are you ready now." Alex says as he pokes his head through the door.

"Yeah erm wheres Niall." I ask as he points towards the bathroom as Niall walks out into the hallway.

"Brooke Niall come downstairs now." My mom yells from down stairs.

"Brooke thats yours and Ni thats yours." She says as she points to the seperate piles.

"Oooh thank you I can wear this outfit today with my brown boots and those gray button socks." I say as I look at the gray cardigain and black dress in front of me.

"Mum you didnt get me new supras, oh my gosh I love you so much." Niall says as he attacks my mom with a hug.

After we finished with our presents, I took my stuff upstairs to get dressed for today. I plugged in my straightner and pulled out my make up. I straightened my hair and then applied my makeup.

I pulled on the dress and cardigan then slipped on my socks and boots. I braid a piece of my hair then sprayed myself with my VS pink perfume.

"Brooke, Hannahs here are you ready." My mom yells up to me as I unplugged my phone from the charger and hopped down the stairs.

"Goodmorning Brooklyn, Merry Christmas darling." Anne chirps as she pulls me in for a hug.

"Hello Anne, please just call me Brooke." I say as she releases me and nods.

"Alright guys, lunch is ready now." My mom says as we all file into the kitchen and fill our plates.

I take a seat next to Harry and Niall and begin eating, after a few bites of Macaroni and turkey I start picking at my food.

"Brooke honey please eat some more." My mom says as I shake my head and look at the food on my plate.

"Brooklyn I'm not starting this today, eat now." She narrows her eyes at me and her voice is low.

"No I'm not hungry, I'm done now excuse me." I say as I push my chair away and run up the stairs and lock myself in my room.

"Brooke please open the door." Niall whispers as he softly knocks.

"I dont want to talk Ni." I sniffle as I wipe my eyes.

A few seconds later I hear keys jingle, and the door flys open.

"Brooke if this is something that has to do with dance dont worry about it, it's just a school you're an incredible dancer." He says as he pulls me up off the bed.

"I love you B." Niall whispers as he kisses my forehead and leads me out of the room.

"We're leaving now bye mum." Niall yells as the front door clicks shut.

"Ni I have to go pick up mums present and I need you to come with me." I whispered as I hopped in the car next to Hannah.

" Sure thing where to" He asked as he backed out of the driveway.

"The photo place on oxford street." I replied as he drove down the highway.

"Goodafternoon my name is Adam how can I help you." The guy behind the desk asked as we walked in.

"Hi I have an order under Horan to pick up please." I say as I pull my jacket over my body more.

"Ah yes here it is just sign here and you're good to go miss." He says as I sign the paper and grab the bag.

"Thank you." I yell as we walk out the door and to the car.

After a few hours of shopping we headed back towards the house. We unlocked the door and I ran up the stairs dropping my bags onto my bed.

"Come in." I yelled as someone knocked on the door.

"Brooklyn I need you in the studio in five." My mom says her tone strict as she shuts the door right back and leaves.

I groan and slip into the worn out shoes. "Now Brooklyn I heard from the director at The Academy that you've missed four pointe classes this week training is important and that is what we're going to do today since you missed those classes, if you miss class again I will have you in this studio all day and night if I must, I'm not paying money for you to miss class Brooklyn." My mom sneers as I roll my eyes and continue to stretch.

"Pointe shoes on now and I want you on the bar." She yells as she plugs in the ipod to the stereo and I tied the shoes onto my feet.

Here comes the longest five hour training I've ever had.
