To everyone else... I love all of you! Please keep reviewing! Here's my latest chapter. Enjoy:)

"Did we do what I think we did?" Lucas questioned still not fully believing the situation they were in.

"I hope not but I don't think how that's possible. There's no use denying the obvious." She said as she let out a hug sigh

"God, how the hell could we have let this happen?" he said as he buried his face his hands.

"We were drunk, that's it, end of story!"

"Being drunk is not an excuse for what we did."

"Then what is?! This is just as much as your fault as it is mine, Lucas!"

"I know, but blaming each other won't solve anything."

"Just drop it okay? Whatever happened, I don't want to talk about it. As far as I'm concerned, this conversation is over!"

"No it's not Brooke!"

"Yes it is Lucas! Whatever happened last night was a mistake! Both of us can agree with that!"

"Maybe it was, but we can't change the fact that it happened!"

"Will you just shut up Luke! Are you with me or against me? Just listen to me okay?" she ordered with annoyance evident in her voice.

"Okay…" he said nodding slowly obviously waiting for her to continue

"We forget it ever happened."

"It's easier to say it than do it."

"Fuck Luke! I've worked for more than 4 years trying to rebuild what's left of our friendship and I won't let it to crumble down just because of a stupid one night stand!"

"I know what you mean."

"That's why you have to trust me and do as I say. Forget whatever happened last night. Last night never happened."

"But-"

Before he could continue, she quickly put her hand to cover his mouth.

"Shh! Luke! Say it with me, last night never happened."

He looked straight into her eyes and saw numerous emotions; pain and regret, but mostly regret. It wasn't because she thought it was a mistake because she didn't want to sleep with him, on the contrary, she had been fantasizing about him for a while now, but because they've worked so hard on their friendship and he's all she's got. She knew that getting into a romantic relationship with Lucas will only hurt the both of them in the end. She didn't want to lose their friendship; she didn't want to lose him.

When she took off her hand, his eyes were still on hers. He wanted to object and annoy her by telling her that it indeed happens, but he knew that this wasn't the time. It was still too soon for jokes. So he just obliged hoping that it would make her happy.

"Last night never happened."

"That's a good boy!" she said as she patted his head and moving back a few inches away.

"Woof! Woof!"

A brief laughter was shared between the two, momentarily forgetting about what happened, correction, what didn't happen last night. For the past years they were able to rebuild their friendship into something better than before. In the four years they've been living near each other, they came to better terms. Old issues were set aside and they were able to live harmoniously in the LA. Both of them were quite successful in their chosen careers, but neither of them had been able to find what subconsciously looking for: love.

Needless to say, both their love lives pretty much sucked. There were the occasional dates and hook-ups but when it comes to love, nada. Months after their high school graduation, the couples split up, except Naley of course who are still going strong by the way. There were unresolved issues and not to mention they were miles apart. Apparently in their cases, distance did not make the heart fonder, but rather more insecure. During these times, they turned to each other, not as lovers but as friends, good friends. This was where it all began, again. They needed each other, so they promised they'd be there for the other and they were surprised when this time, they both kept their promise.

Anything they needed, they came to each other for help. They were tighter than tight. Nothing could possibly come between them… or maybe not? The last thing they need is for old feelings to resurface and make things more awkward than before. They truly were great as friends, but were they really just meant to be friends? I guess they are, well, at least for now.

"This won't change anything between us, right? We're still friends, with partial benefits maybe but only on special occasions." She said with a wink and mischievous grin.

"Promise me things won't get weird between us because of this." He told her with a serious voice.

The mischief marked on her face was swept away and was now replaced with a true and genuine smile, the smile that up until made him weak in the knees, as she took his hand using her free hand (because the other was still holding the blanket wrapped around her naked body.)

"I promise."

Again they were able to keep their promise. Things went back to the way they were before, not that it actually changed though. Sometimes the memory of that night came to haunt them but they would just bury it by occupying themselves with their respective jobs. Sometimes there would still be some awkward moments between them, but they've already learned how to quickly divert the subject if it came anywhere near that situation.

Things were going pretty smoothly between them. They thought that they had avoided any drama that could come from that incident by denying it ever happened. True, it did work for a while, until one morning, it came biting them in ass.

-ring-ring-

"Hello?!" said an obviously just woken up and very annoyed Lucas. "Hey! What the hell?! Do you know what time it is?! For your information, it's 3:45 in the morning!"

"Luke, it's me, Brooke."

"Brooke? Hey, Sorry for ticking off at you like that, it's just that-" he trailed off but was immediately cut off by a very impatient Brooke.

"I know we said that we'd forget about that night, but there is something you need to know…"

There it was... cliffhanger much? If you want to find out what happens... then review:)) sorry if took me a long time to update, I had internet issues... So anyway... Hope you enjoyed and please review:)
