"That's great!" Brooklyn said. She still couldn't get that dream off of her mind. She needed to hear Gabe's voice...he made everything better. As if he knew, her cellphone started ringing and flashing 'Gabe' across the front. She picked it up and pushed the button. "Hello?"
"Hey baby. What's the matter? You sound like you've been cryin'," he said.
"Oh...um...well I just haven't been feeling good all day..." she said, trying to cover for herself so she wouldn't have to tell him about the dream.
"I'm sorry," Gabe said. "You didin't go to work?"
Brooklyn had totally forgotten about work. "OH MY GOD WHAT TIME IS IT?!"

Tellie, shocked that Kayla would hug her, lightly patted her on the back and then pulled away. "You've lost it. I've got to go practice before rehearsal this afternoon." And with that she left the room shaking her head, headed for her own.

"Nine thirty," Gabe said.
"Gabe lemme call you back I have to call Misty and tell her I won't be there today..." Brooklyn said. "Love you bye."

Tellie sighed. "Sure, why not. Just promise you won't start trying to gamble the other actors' money from them, like you tried to do that one time."

Brooklyn hung up the phone. "Oi vey! Misty's gonna hate me!" She hurriedly dialed the number.
"Hello?" said a voice on the other end of the line.
"Misty?"
"Where are you Brook?"
"I'm so sorry I fell asleep."
"I'm up to my eyeballs over here! I could use a little bit of help!"
"Okay okay...I'll be there soon."
She hung up the phone and grabbed her purse. "I gotta go...bye!" she said, hurriedly rushing out the door.

Brooklyn walked down the street as quickly as possible. There was a crowd out today, more than usual. And then, suddenly, she felt someone knock into her hard and she fell backwards into a puddle. She only realized she was in the street when she saw the bus coming toward her. She screamed and heard several people on the sidewalk gasp. The rest was a blur: She felt a strong pair of hands grab her by the arms and jerk her out of the street, only too soon because the bus passed by a split second later; she heard claps and cheers; she collapsed on the sidewalk, hyperventillating and crying because she had literally just seen her life flash before her eyes; and then she heard a male voice asking her if she was alright. She couldn't do or say anything, she was still hyperventillating.
"Calm down...it's okay, you're okay now..." said the voice. At first she thought it was Gabe but she then realized that it wasn't. A complete stranger had just saved her life. She felt a comforting arm around her shoulder. She had absolutely no idea where she was at, but it wasn't the overcrowded sidewalk.
Misty was getting worried about Brooklyn...she should have been there an hour ago. She picked up the phone and dialed the number of the apartment.

"Kayla? Hey...have you talked to Brooklyn since she left? She should have been here an hour ago and I was kinda gettin' worried..." Misty said.
Brooklyn opened her eyes (she had had them shut since she saw the bus) and looked around. She was in an apartment, not unlike their own. She looked to her right and saw the rather attractive guy whose voice she had heard. As she became aware of her surroundings, she suddenly realized that she was freezing. Her clothes were wet from falling into the puddle and the apartment's air conditioning was on about 55 degrees. She was still hyperventillating and shivering. The guy, tall, blonde, and muscular, got up and went over to get a blanket, which he wrapped around her shoulders. "Sorry about the air conditioning...my roommate can't ever seem to remember to turn it up in the mornings before he leaves..." he said, going over to a small box and turning a knob. All Brooklyn could manage was a nod. Her whole body was numb.

"She doesn't answer it..." Misty said. "I'm worried...it's not like her to be late AND not answer her cellphone...or call at least."
The guy sat down beside Brooklyn and put his arm around her shoulder, still trying to calm her.
