This is my first story, I don't own anything. I hope you enjoy
Forever Alone
Why do people ever trust others with their hearts? Inevitably, every heart will be broken in every set of hands which it lies in. No matter how pessimistic this may sound to you it's unfortunately true for every situation. If you're reading this and you're in love the best thing you can do is stop reading because I was you once and I wish I could be ignorant to heartbreak again.
Maybe you're still reading, your eyes are glued to this screen because you want to hear my story? Well I guess I have to tell you now because no one wants to listen to me ramble on about how stupid I think love is. Though I could go on all day.
I didn't even introduce myself yet, my name is Brooke Penelope Davis, I'm 24 and I own a multi-million dollar clothing company, Clothes over Bros. Sounds great right? Young and rich, I have the world in the palm of my hand. But there's something missing, an ache inside my chest that always nags at me, the dreadful feeling of loneliness.
I've been alone for as long as I can remember, my parents Victoria and Richard Davis were always away for business and I was stuck at home with nannies. These ladies were nice and all but I knew they disliked me, only put up with me because they needed money to go home and support their own family. That's a depressing feeling for a six year old, the feeling of being used that is. So because of my parents and the nannies I learned not to trust adults. So instead I relied on my best friend Peyton.
Peyton wasn't my best friend growing up. She was my sister. She was my family. She was everything. She was there through all the bullshit, from late nights crying over my parents to carrying or more like dragging my drunken ass home after I intoxicated myself to the point of blacking out. Peyton was going to be my maid of honor and we were going to raise our children together. I think you get the point. Well now you're asking yourself how the hell does this have to do with being heartbroken? Just be patient.
Lucas Scott. Just that one name makes me want to run to the bathroom and throw up all the food content I've ever eaten. But now I'm getting ahead of myself, you want to hear about how in love and head over heels I was for him right? I did love Lucas, with every part of my being, I would have died for him, done anything for him.
The two of us together was very odd and unlikely, but it made perfect sense. He used to tell me that all the time and I believed him.
I'm in Lucas' bedroom and reading Vogue while he reads yet another piece by Steinbeck. I stop reading and just watch him, God he's so beautiful. His face is perfect and the expression he has, he's so enthralled by words on a page. I start thinking and somehow my mouth utters out something without my knowledge,
"Why are you with me Luke?" I don't understand what just happened but it's out, my thoughts just jumped out of my brain and into the quiet room. Lucas is immediately taken out of his own world and brought back to reality.
"Because I love you," he says it as if it's such an obvious answer. He has that adorable smile on his face, not the Scott smirk he shares with Nathan and Dan, no this is his own, it's so gentle and sincere.
"I know you do but why? I mean we're so different, why don't you want to be with a girl who is more similar to you, a good girl?" Now I'm completely into this conversation, I need answers.
"Yeah we don't have the same backgrounds or like the same books or music, but we share things that are much more important. We share our love, our dreams, and our hopes. Our likes and dislikes should be different, I mean I don't want to date my twin," now there's that Scott smirk, a grin that I enjoy just as much as his genuine, loving smile. He continues, "And we may not have grown up in the same environment but we're going to be together in our future and that's what matters."
Just like that, he reassures me that we're meant to be and no matter how many people think it's just a fling and it won't last, we know the truth.
Thank you for reading. I hope you liked it. Please review and let me know what you think good and bad.
