storybrooke ➳ a few days later

WARNING: this chapter contains self-harm and if you don't want to read this, you can skip it until the end and I'll summarise it for you :).

I sat on my bed in tears. I could hear my mom banging on the door, telling me to open it and talk to her about it.
I couldn't stop thinking about it. About Henry. About Violet. Violet. The thought of her and Henry made me physically sick.

I titled my head to the ceiling and shut my eyes tightly, trying to hold back the tears. I suddenly remembered how unhappy I was before I met Henry. I looked back down at my clean wrist.
No. I told myself. Ever since you moved to Storybrooke and met Henry life's been brilliant and the thought never crossed your mind. Don't let it be crushed now.
I shook my head. No, no, no. It's too triggering, I can't fight it.
I groaned at stood up and frantically ran around my room looking for anything to hurt myself with. My eyes lay upon my blue scissors on top of a piece of paper on my desk. I ran towards it and grabbed. I wiped some of the tears away and looked at the door. My mom was still banging on it and now ordering me to open the door. She knew about my depression and constant urges to self harm and I'm guessing she knows somethings definitely not right.
I took the scissors and gripped them tightly in my hand and sliced it through my wrist. I felt a small shot of pain fly through me before I carried on. I let the blood escape. That shot of pain hit me again but this time, it was blissful. I smiled through the tears and laughed at the thought of seeing everything that happened through that stupid dream catcher that Emma owned. The more slits created, the more light I felt. I began to lean forward, then backwards, forward, then backwards. My eyes fluttered open, then closed, open, then closed. My grip on the scissors weakened and I dropped them.
I then fell to the door and blacked out.

"So, have you met anyone from Camelot yet?" I asked Henry, hoping for him to mention the girl.
He shook his head. "Apart from Arthur and Guinevere... no, not really."
He's lying to me? This isn't right.
"Oh, well, I met this girl. I never got her name but she seems sweet. She has dark hair and dark eyes and-"
"Violet?" Henry interrupted.
I don't know her name, but I'm guessing that's her name.
"You've met her then?"
Henry paused for a moment before nodding. "Yeah, actually. I forgot to mention her."
Oh really? I thought to myself.
"That's funn-"
Henry put his finger to my lips, signalling for me to be quiet.
I could hear faint voices coming from downstairs. "Can you hear that?" Henry asked me.
I nodded. "Yeah, why?"
He got up and ushered me to follow him. "Be quiet though, it could be something they don't want us to hear."
We lightly jogged down the stairs and hovered outside Regina's living room. Robin and Regina were stood there. Regina was holding up the dream catcher and in it was an image of Henry.
"That's the dream catcher..." I whispered to Henry.
"What?"
"It's the key to get our memories back."
"Hang on..." Henry whispered, holding onto my arm. "Those are my memories... it's all from my point of view."
I took a closer look and noticed it was still focused on Henry. But this time, the same girl I've been seeing Henry with was there too. Violet and Henry were sat around a table in Granny's in Camelot with lit candles, drinks and food. My jaw dropped when I realised they were on a date. A date. Henry's grip on my arm loosened.
"I'm sorry, Henry. But I preferred it when we just friends, you know? I liked it like that." Violet said to Henry. I watched the tears well up in Henry's eyes - he looked so heartbroken.

The scene then switched to Violet in a stable. Emma then walked in. Violet greeted her with a smile before she asked Violet if she could keep a secret.
She looked confused, but nevertheless, she nodded. "Of course!"
Without hesitation, Emma then reached for Violet's chest and ripped out her heart. Violet started to take deep and heavy breaths, obviously panicking. She clasped her chest and looked up at Emma.
"I need you to break Henry's heart."

The scene then switched again to Henry, who was crying. He was with Regina and Emma. "I'm not what she wanted." He cried. Emma then took out a small bottle and collected one of Henry's tears.

My heart sank. Henry was cheating on me. I knew there was something up. Despite the fact we all had our memories wiped, Henry would've still felt something for her because she's still the same Violet, she just doesn't remember anything.
All this time Henry's been lying to me... and I've ignored it. I kept telling myself to do something about it but I never did. Now I'm stood hear watching what happened with Henry and Violet in Camelot absolutely speechless.
I gulped, too loudly. Henry dropped his phone, causing Regina and Robin to spin around. Henry looked at me. "Brooke, I swear, I didn't know anything about this-"
I shook my head, feeling as if I was about to loose my balance, I stepped backwards towards the door. "Don't... call me..." was the last thing I said to Henry before I left, leaving him, Robin and Regina speechless.

a/n: SUMMARY OKAY SO
basically Brooke runs home crying because she finds out about Henry and Violet in both Camelot and Storybrooke. Before she met Henry she was seriously depressed and had a constant urge to self harm. Whaaaaale, that urge came back and so much blood was lost that she passed out and I wrote in italics the flashback, it'll probably help if you read that.
Aaaaand, yeah! That's just a quick summary I hope it made sense. Prepare yourself for serious drama between Henry and Brooke... things are about to get dramatic ;)
