Brooke walked into her house, and threw her jacket onto the couch. She looked around and saw her unfinished sketches lying around, Peyton's half finished second wedding dress and her foster daughter's school books sprawled all across the room. She sighed and closed her eyes, today for Brooke Davis was exhausting.

It had been 2 weeks since Julian Baker left for Los Angeles, Sam was barely speaking to Brooke, since Brooke declined Julian's offer to go to LA with him.

"Sam, can you get out here and put your stuff away please." Brooke said stepping further into the house and gathering her sketches together.
Sam came out from her room, and walked over to her books slamming them shut and giving Brooke a glare before walking back into her room, slamming the door behind her. Brooke sighed and went to the fridge grabbing a wine bottle out and pouring herself half a glass. She sat down at the counter and slowly drank her glass of wine. She turned when she heard Sam's bedroom door open. She watched as Sam opened the fridge and got herself a cold slice of pizza from last night's dinner.

"Can you grab me a piece?" Brooke asked, trying to get Sam to say something to her. Sam grabbed another piece and handed it to Brooke before turning to walk back to her room.

"Sam." Brooke said and Sam turned around. She looked at Brooke.

"What's wrong? You've barely said two words to me in two weeks. Ever since Julian left for LA."

Sam rolled her eyes, Brooke saw it but ignored it because she wasn't in the mood.

"Is it because of Julian?" Sam just stood there in silence. "Sam, please just talk to me. I sound like a crazy person, I'm practically talking to myself." That got Brooke nothing.

"I just don't understand why you didn't go with Julian. I hate that you didn't follow your heart with the boy you love just because of me."

"Sam, I didn't go because of you, I didn't go, for you. You need stability in your life and moving from Tree Hill, your home, to LA across the country isn't stability."

"I just want you to be happy. You would be happy if you went to LA" Sam said.

Brooke got up and walked over to Sam putting her hands on Sam's shoulders, "Sam listen to me, I am happy here with you. Without you I think I would be worse off then I am now by not going with Julian.

"You don't act like your happy." She said backing away so Brooke's hands fell from her shoulders.

"I'm happy Sam, just overwhelmed with everything with the store, and Victoria."

"Ok, could you at least call him. You miss him, and I know he is missing you like crazy."

"I'll think about. It's not that easy. But, in the mean time will you at least talk to me. These last 2 weeks have been hell without my partner and crime to talk to."

Sam let a small smile appear on her face, "I'll think about." She said turning around and walking back into her room. Brooke shook her head and grabbed her phone. She stared at it for a minute before setting it back down on the table.

"It's not that easy." She said to herself quietly grabbing her glass of wine and making her way over to the couch, where she would sit for hours pouring her mixed feelings into her unfinished but inspired sketches.

Sam came out an hour later aand sat down next to Brooke on the couch. "Did you think about it?" Sam asked and Brooke looked up from her sketch.

"So you're finally talking to me huh?"

"Yea, did you call him?"

"No, I don't know Sam. I mean he probably has already forgotten about what we had already."

"Are you serious? Julian loves you. There is no way he would ever forget about you. And I mean I already called him and he could not stop talking about you." Sam said fast.

"You what? You called him?" Brooke asked putting her sketchbook down and turning to face Sam.

"Yea, what's the big deal. He told me to call him anytime. And so I thought I would use this chance to tell him how much you miss him and that you want him back into your life."

"Sam-"

The doorbell rang and Sam looked at Brooke before standing up and walking to her room, "This could be your one chance Brooke." She said before closing the door behind her. Brooke was confused and walked to the door opening it.

"Hello Brooke Davis."
