I am so, so, so, so, so bad for starting a new story

I am so, so, so, so, so bad for starting a new story. Well ok it's new to you guys but it's been sitting on lined paper in my Spanish notebook for a long, long, long time. Ash-face decided she needed a piece of paper to draw me a picture and read this and loved it. So here I am writing it and you're reading it. Hehe.

This story is dedicated to my lovely friends- Ash-face (as I love to call Ashley) and Moo-Moo The Cow (also known as Megan- long story with the name so don't ask). I don't know where I would be with out you girls begging me to post this story. So here I am doing it.

Disclaimer: The title and lyrics at the bottom are named after a song called What's The Use by Tyler Hilton (written for Chad & Sophia when they separated), and the chapter title is a song by Kelly Clarkson.

Summary: She forgave him once. But what's the use of forgiving him again if she's not the only one hurting this time? Brucas. Future.

What's The Use?

By Denver

Chapter One: Never Again

"Fool me once- shame on you. Fool me twice- shame on me." – Sister Karen The Great (To me at least)

"You want me to forgive you Luke? You came home from work five hours later then you said you would. Plus you have lipstick on your shirt!" Brooke yelled. She was trying her hardest to stay quiet for the sake of the three sleeping kids upstairs or so she thought where sleeping.

"Brooke come on I had to stay after to finish a project for work."

"Why didn't you call then? Huh? If you had a project to finish why is there red lipstick stain on your shirt and don't tell me it's from me cause I do not where this red lipstick?"

"I don't know." Lucas yelled. They've been going at it like this every night and it's been getting on his nerves the most. "I forgot to call ok? I'm sorry but I've got caught up in finishing this thing so I could come home early tomorrow."

"Yeah right. Who is she Luke? Who?"

"Mommy?" a little blonde haired four-year-old girl said rubbing her sleepy chocolate brown eyes.

"Shannon what's wrong?"

"You yelling to much." Shannon said sticking her head in to her mother's neck.

"Sorry Shan." Brooke smiled. Her kids could always help her put a smile on her face even in the worst of times. "Go lay in mommy's bed for a little bit. Ok? I'll be right there." Brooke said watching her daughter slowly walk to the stairs of their four-bedroom house in Tree Hill, making sure her child was out the room before she continued. "Who the hell is she?"

"Who is who?" Lucas said scrunching up his forehead- which he only did when he was lying.

"Who is the girl Luke? Who is the girl that you find more important then our son's first soccer game?" Brooke yelled. She was the one who had to break it to Landon that his dad chose work over his soccer game. Who wants to break it to a six-year-old that?

"I forgot about it ok and there is no girl for the last time! I did that to you once in high school and I couldn't do it again."

"It's Peyton again isn't it?" Brooke said getting no response. "It is."

"Brooke…"

"How long Luke?" Brooke asked angry as hell she was ready to explode; throwing things at him would've been her plan if her babies weren't just up the stairs. "I asked how fucking long Luke!"

"Cheery…"

"Lucas Eugene Scott don't you dare call me that." Brooke yelled tying her hair into a pony tale. "How long? How long have you been sleeping with that whore?"

"Daddy you home?" Landon said running down the stairs. His eyes matching the exact color of his Dad's but the hair and dimpled smile that all three kids have is definitely from Brooke.

"Hey buddy." Lucas said putting on a fake smile to tell his son everything is ok. "How was your soccer game?"

"I got a goal!" the six-year-old cheered his face lighting up with happiness. He loved soccer just as much as the older Scott brothers- Lucas and Nathan love basketball. "We won."

"That great Landon."

"Babe go upstairs ok? It's way past your bedtime, and I already let you stay up an hour longer." Brooke said probably ruining the moment for the son and father.

"Mommy." Landon begged with a pout. He wanted to tell Lucas about the game more.

"Landon Keith Scott get upstairs now!" Brooke yelled as Landon ran off right up the stairs. "Now will you answer my fucking question Lucas?"

"Brooke come on."

"I want to know."

"Um…" Lucas said.

"Lucas tell me." Brooke cried. He promised her when they got back together he would never again cheat on her, but like Haley always told her, 'Once a cheater, always a cheater.'

"Six Months."

"A fucking six months Luke!"

"I've been wanting to tell you Cheery."

"Then why didn't you have the guts to do it from the start?"

"It started when we split up for that month. I was so down Brooke, she was there." Lucas said putting his head down. He just couldn't look at Brooke just crying like that, all he wanted to do was to comfort her, but right now that was not an option. Just watching her break down was the only thing he could do.

"I want you out now! Pack a bag Luke and get the hell out of my house and away from the kids and me." Brooke yelled as a loud wailing scream came rushing through the house. "Now I have to go deal with Allie but I want you out of this house when I'm done." Brooke yelled whipping the tears as she ran to her youngest daughters room.

"Momma!" Allie yelled stomping her little feet on the mattress of her crib, holding on to the side rail so she wouldn't fall. "Momma!"

"I'm here baby girl." Brooke said picking up the crying a year and a half chocolate hair and eyes- more to say Allie was a replica of Brooke.

"Momma."

"Did mommy and daddy wake you pretty girl?" Brooke said getting a nod. As soon as Allie Savannah Scott was born she was the new pretty girl in the Brucas household, and Brooke wasn't complaining to that especially since Shannon was the princess. Allie had to have a nickname too. "I'm sorry Allie."

"Dada!" Allie said as her head lifted right off of Brooke's shoulder when Lucas walked into the room.

"Hey my Pretty Girl." Lucas smiled taking Allie out of Brooke's arms.

"I thought I told you to leave?"

"Can't I say goodbye to my own kids?"

"Whatever." Brooke said walking out of the room.

"Bye-bye for now Allie." Lucas said kissing the top of his daughters' curly chocolate brown hair as he placed her back into her crib.

"No." cried Allie. No, let's just say is Allie's favorite word at this time.

"Allie I got to go. Momma will be back in soon." Lucas said giving her one last kiss as he walked out of the room.

"Daddy don't leave!" Shannon yelled. For being a mommy's girl since birth, she was acting like a daddy's girl now.

"Shan I'll be back soon ok?" Lucas said trying to be strong for his kids. "Help mommy out with Allie ok?"

"Ok daddy. I love you." The four-year-old cried into her dad's shoulder.

"I love you too princess."

"Daddy will you still come to my soccer games?" Landon asked.

"Give me a call when you have one and I'll be there."

"You promise me?" Landon said sticking out his pinkie finger.

"I promise buddy."

"Get out now Luke."

"God Brooke just give me a second."

"I want you out."

"Bye Brooke." Lucas said leaving.

"I don't like you mommy. You made daddy leave." Cried Shannon as she ran to her purple fairy room.

"Shan."

"Thanks a lot Lucas." Brooke said to herself as she walked down the hallway after Shannon.

But I'm back to nothing
if she leaves me where I am
Don't you get it?
I'm just waiting for the truth to tumble down
Sure I'm holding something
But what's the use in being honest now?

Hope you all liked it. It's making me sad to write this with this depressing song. But I guess when you are in already a depressing mood it couldn't help any less.

Anyway. The saying in the beginning is from one of my teachers- who we love so much. She always puts a smile on our faces. Her and Mr. Keen, but he is for a whole different reason.

I hope you all enjoyed it. I love writing depressing stuff when I'm in a bad mood blasting Papa Roach and Nirvana. Such a weird mix- I know. Please review.

Oh yeah. I hope everyone enjoys one tree hill tonight. I know I will.
