The idea of this story comes from another amazing fan fiction which is from another TV show called One Week at a Time ; however - it's my own version of course :) Both of the stories start with a chapter in the shower, I'm sorry about that! If there is any trouble, I will remove this story :) I hope you enjoy!

Chapter 1: The Guilt

Brooke Penelope Davis proceeded inside her bathroom and locked the door, wiping her tears with the sleeve of the shirt. Brooke took a glance at herself in the mirror and started to remove her clothing; her thoughts were concentrated on the male that was sleeping in her bed:- Lucas Scott. The male that was her ex-lover, the male that her best friend was desperately in love with, the male that Brooke had just made love with.

More tears were coming, as Brooke stepped into the shower. How could she do something like that to Peyton?! Sure, Lucas and Peyton had been going through a rough patch, and he had confided in Brooke for support. And they may have had a various amount of alcohol but it did not make it right for her to take advantage of Lucas with her constant flirting; and she should have resisted his emotional pleas to feel wanted. He had trapped her with his irrestible charm and they had slept together.

The hot water was starting to burn her skin; this was the way she needed her shower, it would ease the guilt and the anger. Brooke had to forget about the events of the previous night, she needed to cleanse herself. Her skin was turning red from the boiling water, and her tears were mixing together with the shower droplets, this was her punishment.

Brooke had no clue what she was going to tell Peyton; her best friend did not even deserve this, she had not done anything wrong at all. What was she talking about? Peyton had done everything wrong! She had cheated with Lucas when he was dating Brooke, this was just her revenge. Peyton needed to feel the way that she had felt; but that was when they were in high school; they were all adults now. Could Brooke have really wanted revenge all this time? Or was it really because she wanted Lucas back?

Brooke could not deny her attraction towards Lucas, but did that mean she could be in love with him again? Her feelings were so complex; she was even confusing herself. Being with Lucas felt so magicial; it was perfect.

Brooke was so confused, she wanted it to stop; turning off the shower with frustration and collapsing to the floor. She could not control herself, all she wanted was to erase everything that had happened.

(AN HOUR LATER)

Brooke managed to find the courage to face the consequences of her actions; she departed the shower and wrapped a dry towel around her wet body. She cleansed her face with water and brushed her teeth to remove any traces of Lucas' breath.

Determined, Brooke stared at herself in the mirror. She knew what had to be done next, and began to enter her bedroom. Brooke threw her dirty clothing on the bed, where Lucas was no longer; this made her stop in her tracks, he must have left when she was in the shower. How could one male complicate everything so much?! Brooke sighed, and picked up the note that had been left on the pillow.

Brooke,

I had to go home to get ready for work.

Don't worry about what happened; we just made a stupid drunk mistake.

I'm really sorry, it was my fault. Things have just been sh!t with Peyton, I needed to feel wanted.

Please don't tell her. It'll break her heart.

However - I felt something that I never felt before with you. It's like my old feelings are coming back for you.

I will call you. We'll talk more about it later. I promise.

Lucas xx

Hesitantly, Brooke dropped the written message back on her bed. With tears in her eyes, Brooke's thoughts began to focus on how much this would effect her realtionships with Peyton and Lucas.
