I Love You, I Think

"Brooke! Brooke!" Lucas called down the hallway.

"Hold on. I'm getting ready for our date tonight." Brooke was putting her earring in her pierced earlobe. She was wearing a tight black dress that hugged her hips and showed just a bit of cleavage. Brooke walked out of the bathroom and Lucas whistled to display that she looked hot.

"How did I get so lucky with you? You look beautiful, Brooke Davis." Lucas grabbed Brooke's hips and kissed her on the mouth.

"I should dress like this more often if that's my reward." Brooke giggled like a school girl. Brooke walks over to get her clutch from the sink and remembers Lucas wanted to tell her something.

"What did you want to tell me earlier babe?" Lucas suddenly remembers his train of thought. His eyes light up and his eyebrows arch high on his forehead.

"Guess what?" Lucas asked Brooke.

"I don't know, what?" Brooke shrugged her shoulders.

"The General Manager of Duke University called me. They are coming to the game next week and are gonna watch me play! They want to give both Nathan and I a scholarship! " Brooke lit up and jumped up to hug Lucas. She kissed him and wrapped her legs around Lucas's hips.

"Oh baby, I knew you could do it!" Brooke let go of Lucas and suddenly realized there was a problem.

"But we were gonna go to LA for the summer. We were going to get away from it all and explore the country." Brooke knew what Lucas was going to say next but she hoped he would agree with her.

"Duke University is my one shot to go to a university and actually play with my HCM. Plus I can study literature and creative writing just like I wanted to in LA. Baby we can make this work! Maybe we can rent an apartment down there and when I'm done school there we can go to LA just like you wanted." Brooke sighed at the thought of going to Durham, North Carolina.

"I don't know, baby. What if we stayed here and you like came home on the weekend? Plus we have to wait until they actually give you the scholarship first." Lucas sighed and leaned against the wall.

"Yeah, I mean what if they don't even give me the scholarship? Let's just enjoy the night. Ok?" Lucas smiled and pulled in Brooke for a hug.

"Ok." Brooke sighed relief. She really didn't want to leave Tree Hill unless it was for LA.

I Love You, I Think—

Lucas and Brooke walked into the restaurant, holding hands. They waited for their table to celebrate this special day.

"Can you believe it's our one-year anniversary today?" Brooke asked Lucas. "It's been the best year of my life. I love you."

"I love you too, pretty girl." Lucas kissed the top of Brooke's head and flashed a smile. The waiter motioned for the couple to follow him and lead them to their table.

"Lucas? How are you, son? I heard about the possible Duke scholarship. Congratulations." Dan was sitting at a table, close to the bar.

"Thanks. I don't know if I'll take it though." Lucas looked at Brooke and smiled.

"Why in the world would you not take it?" Dan looked confused with Brooke and Lucas. He suddenly realized quickly what the problem was. "Ah, yes. I had one of those. Piece of advice, take them with you. It's better than leaving them here." Dan smiled and nodded his head.

"Excuse me but what are you talking about?" Lucas asked Dan, annoyed.

"Brooke's pregnant and you don't want to leave her and the baby here. Congrats, by the way." Dan turned back to his food.

"I understand you don't have a heart or soul to understand this but Brooke is not pregnant. I might not take the scholarship because I want to stay with her because I love her." Dan instantly snapped inside, knowing instantly what he had to do. There was no way a silly girl was going to keep his son from being successful. Lucas and Brooke kept walking and sat down at their table.

Brooke clutched onto Lucas's arm and sat down at the table. Brooke was smiling so bright at how Lucas stood up to Dan. Why in the world would he think I was pregnant? Brooke thought to herself.

"Do I look fat?" Brooke blurted out, asking Lucas.

"Brooke, you are like the skinniest girl I know. And you look beautiful." Lucas said, not understanding why Brooke would think such a thing. Then Lucas realized what she was talking about. "Is this because Dan thought you were pregnant? He only thought that because to him, that's the only reason to stay with a girl rather than moving away." Brooke nodded and understood what Lucas was saying.

"Can you believe we will be graduating in a few months? It's like yesterday that we were juniors and I was naked in your backseat." Brooke laughed. The comment made Lucas crack up and stared into her eyes.

"How did I get so lucky?" Lucas asked, theoretically. He stared into Brooke's beautiful hazel eyes and smiled, falling in love with her all over again.

"Well, it helps that you're hot." Brooke joked, but inside truly meaning it. Lucas laughed and knew this was the girl he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

The waiter returned to gather their orders and Brooke looked down at the menu, telling the waiter what she would like to eat. As Brooke was talking to the waiter, Lucas put his hand over his pocket to feel the ring box. Tonight was the night Lucas planned to propose to Brooke. He was completely in love with her and he wanted to make it official. Of course they were going to have the ceremony after their high school graduation but Lucas still wanted Brooke to be completely his and the only way to do that was to propose to her.

"Lucas? What are you going to order, babe?" Brooke looked over at her boyfriend. Lucas had realized he dozed off and snapped back to reality.

"Um, I will have the same as the lady here." Lucas smiled, not even knowing what Brooke ordered. It will be a fun surprise when it comes out, Lucas thought. The waiter left to go deliver the order to the kitchen. Lucas smiled at Brooke and looked deep into her eyes. When he booked their reservation for dinner, he had especially asked if they would bring out a cake that said 'Marry me, Brooke Davis'.

"I'm going to go to the ladies room and freshen up." Brooke announced, leaving Lucas enough time to double check with the waiter about the special surprise. Lucas nodded and kissed Brooke's hand as she walked away.

I Love You, I Think—

Brooke was in the washroom, fixing her makeup when a dark figure walked into the room. She looked away from the mirror to realize who was there.

"Dan? This is the ladies washroom." Brooke announced, learning that Dan was purposely in the ladies. Dan looked under each stall to make sure no one was in the washroom and locked the entrance door. Brooke grew scared and suspicious, knowing that he killed his own brother.

"Dan what are you doing?" Brooke asked, shaking in her skin.

Dan wrapped his hand around Brooke's neck and pushed her up against the wall. Brooke let out a shriek and Dan tightened his grip around her throat to make her be quiet. Dan breathed heavily on her face and stared into her eyes.

"Listen, bitch. Lucas has a great thing before him and you're not going to ruin because he thinks he's in love. He's not. He doesn't love you and he doesn't need you. You're going to break up with him. Tonight. And make him go after the scholarship. There is no way you're going to ruin this for him." Dan declared. "Let me just remind you that I killed my brother and have no problem killing you too. So break up with him or else." Dan threatened Brooke. Brooke could barely breathe under Dan's grip.

"I... love… him." Brooke managed to say. Dan laughed at Brooke's comment.

"You think you love him. But you two are just kids and he is going to Duke whether you like it or not. So break up with him and we won't have any reason to talk again." Brooke swallowed and tried to say something again.

"What if… he doesn't get… the scholarship?" Brooke asked, Dan laughing again.

"Oh honey, he's getting the scholarship. Trust me." Dan tightened his grip on Brooke's neck and she flinched backwards, her head hitting the wall.

"Now break up with him before the end of the night or else." Dan let go of Brooke, unlocked the door and walked out. Brooke looked in the mirror to discover grip marks on her neck. She took some of her foundation powder and spread it all over her neck, covering it up well. She looked herself in the mirror and knew what she had to do.

Brooke walked out of the washroom and walked back to the table. She saw that the food had just arrived and sat down across from Lucas. Lucas smiled at Brooke and mouthed 'enjoy' to her.

I Love You, I Think—

"Well that was delicious!" Lucas exclaimed. Brooke nodded, knowing she had to break up with him soon. "What's wrong, babe? Ever since you got back from the washroom, you've been acting weird." Lucas was concerned about his girlfriend because he wanted her to be in a better mood for what was going to happen soon. Brooke smiled and tried to act normal again.

"Nothing, everything is fine." Brooke exclaimed, flashing a smile. The waiter started to walk over with the cake and set it down on the table.

"What's this? We didn't order this." Brooke leaned over to the waiter, not looking at what it said on the cake.

"Brooke? Look at the cake, babe." Lucas directed Brooke's attention to the cake. Brooke looked over at the cake and her eyes widened. She had realized what was going on and couldn't act fast enough to stop it. Lucas took the box out of his pocket and opened it to reveal the ring Keith used to propose to Karen. Lucas got down on his knee and leaned towards Brooke.

"Brooke, you are the best part of me. Whenever I have a bad day, I know I can come home to you and my day will be better. You have made my senior year amazing and you make everything in my life better. Every time I look into your beautiful hazel eyes I see a future. As long as I have you, there is nothing else in the world I need. Brooke I need you in my life and I can't live without you. I love you and sometimes I think it's not possible to be this in love but I know it is because I am. Brooke, I am completely and utterly in love with you and there is nothing on this earth that will stop me from loving you. Brooke, I love you and I will shout it out to the world. You are the love of my life and I want to start a life with you. Brooke Penelope Davis, marry me and make me the happiest person for the rest of my life." Lucas was kneeling looking into Brooke's eyes, waiting for an answer from the love of his life. Brooke opened her mouth to respond, unsure what she would say.

"Lucas, I…"
