Hey Guys, so this is the squeal and I'm really excited for it.
So I want you guys to know that this squeal might not be what you would like, but I really need you guys to understand that Brooke isn't weak in this story... She realised in the last story that she doesn't need to Lucas is her life to be able to be happy. So just bare with me through the chapters okay.
Anyway after finally deciding to do it... Here's the first chapter... ENJOY!
Has it really been that long. I tick off my calendar and throw myself back on my bed in the new house I've just brought in London. It's been 5 years since I left Tree Hill and I haven't gone back once. I moved myself to my swirly chair and decided to do some work.
I mean I've planned to go back to Tree Hill, but something has kept me away; like a very important dinner date with a client or a very important conference I've had to go too.
After college I got into a programme for fashion and my life has been hectic since then. I've had so much to do in such little time and Tree Hill has just not been on my list for a while, but don't worry I'm going back for the weekend this week. I leave tomorrow morning.
I'm not going to be reunited with anyone I left behind, I have a business deal I have to tend to and it just happened to be in Tree Hill.
Okay okay I know what ya'll are thinking and I'm sorry, but Tree Hill just doesn't seem like home to me anymore. I've left that part of my life behind me and I don't tend to go back to it... Not yet anyway.
And yes I've been watching the news so yes I know that Lucas Scott is a hug time lawyer who decided to go study in LA for a few years before moving back to Tree Hill last year. The media always find a story and it just so happens my old friends and I have been in the spotlight for the past few years so I'm guessing they know things about me too and they all properly hate me for leaving and not answering any of their calls or emails or letters.
I'm a bad bestfriend and a bad friend in general. They should hate me. I hate me for leaving them behind and not looking back, but I did it to get me through the pain and hurt I felt the whole summer in London with no one I know, which is why I get through everyday. I hate that Lucas never came after me like I really thought he would... I hate that he never tried or at least cared enough to try, but then again it's not like any of them tried to contact me in the 5 years I've been gone. Not Rachel nor Haley tried calling me and they were meant to be my bestfriends.
So I had to cut all ties with Tree Hill and move on, so I did what I thought at the time was best... I dated a few guys throughout college and it helped for a while, but now I'm alone and I'm doing great.
Yes it's sometimes lonely, but I really don't need to be in a relationship to feel happy anymore... I've made a name for myself and I'm happy with that.
"Auntie Brookie" I twirl my moving chair around to see Maddie, my 5 year old adopted niece run up to me. I caught her and brought her up to sit on my lap "are Mommy and I really coming with you to Tree Hill tomorrow?" I look up at Ariana and smiled.
"Yes pumpkin that is right"
Ariana and I met first day I arrived in London. She happened to live in the same hotel as me with her little girl. We instantly clicked when we bumped into each other at the elevator and have been friends ever since. We then went to the same college and I've helped her raise Maddie.
"Oh cool" Maddie cheered kissing my cheek "so we get to go on your plane again?" I give her a nod and she cheers some more.
Yes you heard right... Brooke Davis also has her own private plane that I got with the job since I travel so much which is another reason why I'm not dating at the moment.
Ariana and Maddie come with me when I travel since Ariana is the stylist for the fashion shows I arrange and we have a tutor/ nanny that comes long for Maddie's benefit.
"Maddie sweetheart how about you go play over there and let Aunt Brookie finish working" Maddie smiled up at her Mom and nodded before jumping down and running over to the play corner I had created for her benefit also.
Maddie and Ariana have been a big part of my life for the past five years. She's helped me a lot to get over the whole thing with Lucas... I mean he got over me fast enough when I left so why couldn't I do the same.
Like I said social media reveals all.
"So how you feeling about going back to Tree Hill tomorrow and I want a real answer... Not one of those answers you give to the press Brooke" she gives me a stern look to prove she was being serious.
"I'm honestly fine Ari" and I was "yes I was hurt at the fact that for weeks after finding out about London Lucas pleaded and tried to change my mind and then kissed me just as I was about to get into the taxi that he went and started dating Peyton again a couple weeks later and yes I was hurt that not one of my friends who called themselves my bestfriends picked up the phone all summer 5 years ago like they promised they would, but I'm over that now. I understand that they have lives too Ariana" she gave me a stern look again and I smiled at that "really Ari I'm good. I promise"
"Don't make promises you can't keep Brookie... You know that" she gave me a wink and then sat opposite me "I love you girl I do, but you really have to quit trying to lie to me. It hurts you that they never tried with you... Rachel and Haley the most since they were or are meant to be your Bestfriends"
"Fine... Maybe I'm still a little hurt of those facts, but I'm not gonna dwell on it Ari... I'm gonna go to Tree Hill, pose for the camera's when I get off the plane... Make a few comments to the press then I will continue with the business deal I came there for. That is it; we aren't staying longer than 2 days max"
"Okay" and Ariana left it at that.
"Now are you and Mads all packed for tomorrow?" I ask putting all the paperwork together for my meeting in Tree Hill.
Ariana nodded as she drug her legs up onto my legs and leaned back on her chair "and have you told your lawyer that we're going?" She nodded again.
Ariana and Calvin who was her fiancé for a year are currently in a custody battle which is bizarre since he hadn't seen nor even tried to see her for four years and now suddenly as she turns five he wants into her life.
I've met Calvin, we all went college together. He and Ariana got into s fight because he cheated and she refused to go back to him again so he up and left and she hadn't heard from him. We both called around, but no one had seen him and his stupid stuck up parents wouldn't give us his location. So Ariana gave up.
"Yeah... Khloe said he can't do anything since it's my work and Madeleine is in my custody"
"Good" Ariana then turned on the tv and E news came on.
"It's heard that Brooke Davis is flying into Tree Hill tomorrow morning for w business meeting" Amanda the reporter said "Tree Hill being her one for many years before she moved to London and made a name for herself... It's also heard that she is only staying a few days" I twirled round in my chair and crossed my right leg over my left "that isn't very long to see her old town and friends... What about her ex flame Lucas Scott?" I grasped at her mentioning his name on Tv "will sue see him again after five years of not going back... Only tomorrow we will find out" Ariana turned the Tv off and put the control on my desk.
"The cheek of that women" Ariana states putting her feet back to the floor "I never liked her"
And neither did I. We went school with her and she was a bitch then too. Not like Peyton bitch, but a bitch... She slept with anyone to get ahead and that included out Math teach Mr Matthews. Yeah he was younger, but like come on dude.
"Yeah well it doesn't matter Ari" and it didn't... It's been on the news that I was going home for a few weeks now so everyone back home properly already knows I'm going back tomorrow "it's not a big deal"
"I guess" Ariana agreed "Anyway I better put miss muffet to bed since we're going early tomorrow" I nodded as Ariana grabbed Maddie and made her way out my office and down the hall to Maddie's room.
Yeah Ariana and Maddie moved in with me until she wants to move out. I did buy a big house and since it's only me I thought why not have my bestfriend and niece live with me.
After I finished everything for the meeting in Tree Hill I packed it into my work bag and zipped it up and flung it into my shoulder as I walked to my office door and turned out the light.
I then walked down the hall to my room. I shouted night to Ariana and she yelled night back.
Tomorrow I'm going home for the first time in five years... This is gonna be a challenge I can just feel it.
So let me know what ya'll think about the chapter and please REVIEW Below
Much Love Always Roch xoxo
