Some spoilers for 6x19.
OK, so I pretty much hate Mark right now! I want Brulian and I want them now! Why can't he ever let Brooke just be happy?? Anyway, I have no doubt that Julian will be back but this is what I wanted to happen in 6x19 so I figured I would write it myself. I own nothing, because if I did Brooke would get to be happy. Anyway, hope you enjoy and please review :)
You slide down the wall as tears spill from your eyes. He was gone. He was really gone and you let him go. His face when he saw you in the airport will forever be etched in your memory. He was so happy; that grin that you love so much spread across his face and in a instant you crushed him. You know you did the right thing; for yourself, for Sam, even for Julian, so what doesn't it feel that way? Why does it feel as though someone has ripped part of your heart out of your chest? You feel hollow, empty, like you're missing part of yourself. But this is for the best. You can't uproot Sam like that. You can't leave Peyton because no matter what the blonde says she's scared and you won't abandon your friend right now. You won't disappear from Jamie's life again after missing out on the first four years of his life. This is for the best. Maybe if you keep telling yourself that, you'll actually believe it one day. The doorbell brings you back to reality and you sigh heavily. You doesn't want to see anyone right now. You just want to be alone. You want to be alone to mend your broken heart once again. Then the knocking starts. Sam probably called Haley or Peyton. Or maybe the younger Scott brother is coming to check on you again. Sighing again you drag yourself to your feet and make your way to the front door. You check your reflection quickly before pulling the door open and stopping dead in your tracks.
"Ask me to stay." His eyes look a little red and you wonder if he's been crying. "I was about to get on the plane and I realized that I don't care about my pride or anything else. All I care about is you. I want us to be a family. You, me and Sam. We don't have to be a family in LA, we can be a family here. If Tree Hill makes you happy, then Tree Hill makes me happy because none of it matters. Nothing matters without you. I love you Brooke Davis. I don't care how many times I have to say it until you believe it." He finally stops to take a breath and you stare at him in complete shock.
"What are you doing here? You're not supposed to be here." You feel light headed. He's actually standing in front of you, pouring his heart out to you again.
"Ask me to stay Brooke." He says again and tears fill your eyes as you look at him. He reaches out and gently brushes the tears from your face as you close your eyes and lean into his touch. As you open your eyes and look up into his gaze you realize there's only one thing you can say.
"Stay." The word comes out in a whisper but it's all he needs. In an instant you're in his arms and you suddenly feel whole again and you know that he's right, none of it matters as long as you have him.
