Disclaimer-I own nothing
Ok I know I have another story but this one has been on my mind for a while so I have to write it down. There are alot of stories about how Lucas cheated on Brooke, but what if Brooke cheated on Lucas. So the background is that pretty much Brooke and Lucas have been married for 5 years. They have 2 kids the oldest one Jess Nathan Scott is 6 and Riley Madison Scott is 3. The highschoo years are the same except that Brooke got pregnant after her and Lucas broke up. Lucas dated Peyton for a while but that didn't work out. So him and Brooke got together and eventually got married. Peyton lives in L.A. and works for a record company. Naley never happened. Rachel and Nathan are married, I would've made Naley but there's a reason behind this. Nathan, Lucas and Haley have the same Dad but not the same Mom. And Haley and Lucas have the same Mom and Dad. Haley is married to Chris (reason behind this too). Haley's friends with Brooke but not best friends like in the show. Rachel and Brooke are best friends. Ok that's pretty much the whole background.

"Alright babe come on let's go get dressed." Brooke dragged Riley to her room.
"NO! No dress!" Riley cried.
"Come on. Please! Just get dressed we're gonna be late." Brooke pleaded with her daughter. Lately Riley refused to do anything; she assumed it had something to do with Karen spoiling her 24/7.
"Late?"
"We have to take Jess to school." Brooke explained as two arms wrapped around her waist.
"Not now" She hissed, trying to wiggle out of his arms, still trying to get Riley dressed.
"Come on your still not seriously mad." Lucas asked still not letting her go.
"Look can you just let go." Brooke asked still trying to wiggle out of his arms.
"Come on I said sorry like a million times" Lucas let her go.
"Daddy sorry?" Riley questioned, wondering why her parents were yelling.
Brooke pulled Riley's shirt on, and lifted her off the bed. "Ok, go downstairs with Jess." As soon as Riley left, Brooke turned around and glared at Lucas. "Ok just cause you said sorry doesn't change the fact that you lied Lucas!"
"Brooke I'm-"
"Sorry! I know Lucas! Ok still doesn't change anything Lucas!" Brooke still stared at him while wondering what the hell was running through Lucas' mind.
"Brooke-"
"And now I'm late" Brooke walked out of the room.

"So what now?" Rachel questioned.
"I don't know I want to forgive but he lied Rachel" Brooke was so confused she trusted Lucas so much, but lately he kept breaking her trust.
"Has he at least explained why he lied?" Rachel hoped this was another rough patch but the lies had been going on for months now and she wasn't sure if they work past this.
"No, he hasn't said anything, anytime we hit the topic he says sorry and that's it. He just sits there and doesn't answer any of my questions…No wait he does, every answer is 'I'm sorry'. I don't know I just want to forgive him but it's been months of lying." Brooke was starting to tear up. She wanted to forgive him so badly and just stop the constant fighting, but there was a little voice inside her head that told her 'it's over'.
"So what you're going to keep fighting in front of he kids until he decides to answer." Rachel asked as she started to drink her coke.
"No, there's other options." Brooke whispered. As soon as Rachel heard this she started to choke on her coke.
"What!? Brooke look let's not do anything hasty." Brooke just stared at her while she was sipping from her coke. "I'm just saying before you start thinking divorce-" This time it was Brooke's turn to choke on her coke.
"What!? What the hell are you talking about!" Brooke lowered her voice as soon as she saw people staring. "Sorry" she whispered. But gave a questioning glance to Rachel.
"Wait, wasn't that the 'other options'?"
"What! No truthfully divorce is the last thing on my mind." Brooke said as she stared down at her plate.
"Really?" Rachel could see that Brooke was avoiding looking her in the eyes.
"Alright not last thing, but really I don't know if that could be an option, but more of a last resort." Brooke just gave a sigh signaling that she was tired of talking about Lucas.
"Alright changing the subject… so the new line…." Brooke tried to pay attention to Rachel but it was proving to be difficult. She still wondered why Lucas had been lying all those months. Sure many would say he wasn't lying and one of them including Lucas, but he wasn't exactly telling her the truth all those months. It just annoyed her that for months he could lie to her face for all those months.

"So she still pissed?" Nathan asked as he gasped for air. They had just finished their weekly game of basketball at the rivercourt.
"Yup, but she'll get over it." Lucas shrugged.
"I don't know about that. A couple of nights ago Rachel said that this was pretty pissed." Ever since their fight Rachel had been talking his ear off about how much of an ass hole Lucas was. He and Brooke were close in high school but Lucas was his brother so he really didn't want to get into their fight, but that was proving difficult since his wife already picked a side.
"Look this happened last time in a couple of days she'll forgive me, and then everything will go back to normal."
"Man isn't that the problem" Nathan scoffed he wasn't sure why Lucas was acting like he didn't do anything wrong. "Man why'd you do it."
"Do what"
"Put your marriage on the line for, for Peyton"
"Nothing happened! I told Brooke that. I told you that!" Lucas answered with some annoyance. Nothing had happened he didn't know why he needed to keep telling everyone that.
"Dude then why didn't you tell her you went to go see Peyton in L.A. a couple of months ago" Nathan asked with the same amount of annoyance. Rachel kept annoying him that Lucas didn't explain anything to Brooke, so he was gonna get some answers and end this fight once and for all, and hopefully Rachel would stop asking Nathan what Lucas was thinking.
"I thought you said you weren't gonna choose sides huh? Sounds like you're choosing sides!" Lucas yelled hoping to shut him up.
"Look man can you just shut up and answer my question alright. See when your wife is mad she tells my wife and then I keep getting asked why you're such an ass hole. So I'm actually gonna try to help you stop fighting with your wife" Nathan was tired of their same fight for the last couple of weeks.
"Look I didn't think it would make a difference, yeah I saw her but it's not like that's the reason I went to L.A. I went for a book signing." Lucas was really getting annoyed. He didn't do anything wrong he saw an old friend, it's not like anything happened.
"Man then why didn't you tell her." Nathan just shook his head he didn't understand why he didn't explain this to Brooke.
"I knew she would overreact"
"Dude you know how Brooke feels about Peyton especially after everything that's happened." After Lucas and Brooke broke up Brooke had found out she was pregnant. A couple of months into Brooke's pregnancy Lucas and Peyton had gotten together, and apparently Brooke was ok with that. But after Jess was born Lucas broke up with Peyton, and a couple of months later Lucas and Brooke got engaged. And even though Brooke and Peyton's friendship was on the rocks Peyton was still on of her bride's maid. But Peyton never showed up to the wedding, and then she showed up at the reception drunk. Luckily no one noticed her and left quietly, but Brooke never forgave her for that. Nathan understood her because if Peyton had done that at his and Rachel's wedding he would've been pissed too.
"I know that's why I didn't tell her!" Lucas didn't do anything wrong, but yet he kept justifying his actions.
"Ok I get you, but dude for the last couple of months you've been talking to her and sending her e-mails, you could've at least told her."
"Dude seriously I talk about this at home 24/7 so I don't need this from you!"
"Look if you didn't do anything wrong then tell her that's all I'm saying!" Nathan yelled as Lucas started walking away.

"So Brooke where are the kid's tonight" Owen yelled over the music.
"With their grandparents" Brooke said as she took a shot.
"Alright Brooke I gotta go my husband's calling me off the hook to get my hot ass home, so let's go" Brooke could tell that Rachel was tipsy, but Brooke was tipsy herself.
"I'm not ready to go home, my husbands probably staying on your couch anyway since we're fighting so I'll leave later" Brooke said as she ordered another shot.
"Alright then I need to go home to my hot husband" Rachel slurred as she started to walk out of the club.
"Is she gonna be ok?" Owen asked since Rachel was stumbling towards the exit.
"Hmm? She's gonna be fine."
"Get me another shot, hot bartender. Hot bartender Owen." Brooke giggled.
"Brooke I think that's enough for you, you're drunk." Owen laughed.
"Hot bartender Owen I am not drunk, getting there but not drunk." Brooke laughed. "Not that it changes anything" Brooke said as she smirked at him.
"Brooke look about that-"
"When are you getting off" Brooke asked.
"Right know actually."
"My place or yours?" Brooke smirked.
"Brooke are you sure?"
"Lets go" Brooke said as she took her drink and walked out the door.

"Brooke" Owen yelled as he ran after her. "Brooke I'm not so sure about this. You're drunk."
"Ok first off I'm not drunk and anyway it's not like that stopped you last time."
"Brooke-"
"Look I can't drive all I need is a ride home ok?"

"Woah" Brooke said as Owen dragged her into her house.
"Let's go." Owen said as he walked her into her room. As soon as they walked into her room Brooke started kissing him.
"Wait Brooke, where's your husband, what's his name" Owen had heard of Lucas in some of their talks but he really never met him.
"Lucas his name is Lucas and he's not coming home tonight. Probably out with his whore." Brooke said wanting to get off the subject of her husband, it tended to be a mood killer.
"Wait what?" Brooke didn't even answer his question as she started to kiss him again this time a little more forcefully. Owen took off her shirt and threw it on the floor as he began to gain control, he pushed her up against the wall as she pulled off his shirt and started unbuttoning his pants.
"Brooke!? What the hell!" Lucas yelled as he turned on the light in their room, and saw some half-naked guy on his equally half-naked wife.
"Lucas" Brooke breathed out, as the guilt started to set it when she saw the pain and anger in his eyes.
"Save it, you bitch at me about Peyton, when you're fucking some random guy, in our house!" Lucas yelled as he stormed out leaving Brooke and Owen standing there awkwardly.
"I think you should go" Brooke whispered and without protest Owen put his shirt on and walked out. Leaving a crying Brooke in her room.
