Chapter 1 – Our Futures And PastsThe room was scattered with rose petals, candles everywhere. He wanted to make sure everything was just perfect. Tonight, he was going to propose to the girl he loved. He couldn't believe how much his life had changed. He finally had the girl he had always wanted, and now, he never wanted that feeling to end. She would be home any minute and he was itching with anticipation. His palms were sweating and his legs trembling as he heard her car pull up. This was it; now or never.
She flung open the door, just as she always did, throwing down her bag. She suddenly stopped in her footsteps, noticing how beautiful the room looked. She ran over to him, pulling him into a hug.
"Nathan, this is so romantic. But really, you didn't have to do all this."
"I did Brooke. Look, you know I love you, right?"
She nodded, getting a little scared.
"You haven't done anything have you?"
"No, no of course not. That's just it. I never want to be with anyone else but you. I never thought I could be this happy but being with you, I just can't explain it. It's more than I ever could have imagined. I never want to let you go, never. I love you so much."
Slowly, he got down on to one knee as he pulled out a box from his pocket.
"Brooke Davis, will you marry me?"
The look of utter shock spread across her face. She paused, as if time had stood still. She looked down into his eyes, how true he was. She knew he would never hurt her like she had been in her past and he would always be there.
"Yeah. Yeah, I'd love too Nathan."
He got up, lifting her off her feet and hugging her tightly, sharing kisses between each grasp.
"Oh my god. I just realised. I'm engaged!" She yelled as she jumped up and down. He laughed on. He loved how enthusiastic she always was, how amazingly endearing she always seemed. In fact, he pretty much loved everything about her, he always had.

Their engagement party was in a few days and they still had to get all the invitations out. They sat together at the table, constantly stealing glances at each other, smiling across the table.
"So Mr, you do the rest of your family and I'll do mine, not that I have a lot." She laughed as he held her hand.
"Yes Miss. I'll get mine done now then, or I know I'll only forget."
"Ha, good idea. I've gotta go now, I'm meeting Rachel to arrange some more things for our party. See you later my soon to be husband." She grinned as she quickly kissed him on the lips and ran out, winking before exiting. He just sat there, smiling. Man, she was so perfect.
He looked down to the last name on the list, pausing. Lucas Scott. He knew he had to write it; he was his brother after all. But he didn't want to upset Brooke. Screw it, he thought. Brooke obviously loved him now, so she wouldn't be bothered if Lucas came, he hoped anyway.

He opened the letter, curious as to what it was. The only stuff he usually got was from his mother. As he saw the names, his heart sank instantly. Your ex-girlfriend and your brother are getting married. Your brother is with the girl you let go. He wondered what things would be like if he hadn't have been so foolish. Would he still be in Charleston alone? Or would be the one marrying her? I guess it was a little too late for what could have been; now, he had to deal with his mistakes back then. What was he to do? If he went, he knew it would kill him. But if he didn't, it seemed he still cared and that would seem unbelievably selfish. Well, he had to make up his mind soon; the party was only in four days.

So I know this is unbelievably small, and usually my chapters are a lot longer. But this is kinda just an opener to the fic. Do you want me to write about what happened with Brucas when they used to be together?
Leave me reviews telling me.
And please, encouragement would be nice because I'm always a little unsure on starting a new fic.
So thanks, Luv ya, Sophia x
