A/N: wow guys I am so sorry it took so long for me to update, just really with recent episodes I just haven't been in the mood. Well I hope you guys like it and next chapter for sure will have Naley and Jeyton in it. Also sorry for any grammer or spelling errors I just wanted to get this up before I forgot.

Disclaimer: I do not own one tree hill, trust me if I did Lucas wouldn't have called Peyton and Brooke wouldn't have "fallen down the stairs"

Brooke, Lucas, and Liz had been shopping for what seemed like an eternity to Lucas, but was really only a few hours and had bought again, what seemed like half of New York to Lucas, but was really only a couple of outfits.

Brooke and Liz were currently in a dressing room trying on what Lucas hoped to be the last thing he would have to buy.

Lucas had really forgotten just how much he depised shopping and really couldn't remember the reason why he had so openly offered to come. That was until a couple of seconds later when Brooke and Liz emerged from the dressing room.

Brooke was wearing a red dress that went just to about knee length and fit her body perfectly. Lucas just couldn't stop starring.

"So what do you think", she said before spinning in a circle. "I...I think you are going to be the prettiest girl there"
Brooke began to blush but then laughed when Liz looked at her dad with a stubborn glare

"Hey!"she stated. "Excuse me, the second prettiest girl there."

"Thats more like it", Liz smiled. "So please tell me we are done and ready to go", Lucas almost begged.

"Fine. If we must be done, then I guess we are ready to go", Brooke replied. Lucas then let out a sigh of relief.

"You know what I will make it up to you, and of course repay you for spending so much money on me. I will make you dinner tonight.", Brooke said thinking she was a genious.

"Umm...no offense Brooke but I have seen you try and cook before and lets just say I value my life"

"Hey! It was only a small fire and in my defense Liz distracted me.", Brooke reasoned. "I'll tell you what, how about I take us all out for dinner instead", bargained Lucas. "Well...I guess...that would work", Brooke smiled as if that is what she wanted the whole time.

Liz began to jump up and down from excitement. "Yay!" "Hey wait a minute, I am suppose to be going over to grandma Karen's tonight.", Liz said dissapointed.

"It's ok buddy, we can all go out another time, I promise", Brooke said bending down to give her a hug. "Why don't you go change back into your regular clothes and we can hang out a little bit before Karen comes and picks you up, deal?"

"Deal!", she replied before practically running back to the dressing room.

"So...I know Liz won't be there..but the offer still stands", Said Lucas "Anything for a free meal right", Smiled Brooke before also heading to go change.

NOT THE PLAN

It was almost time for the reservation Lucas had made, and Liz had just left for Karen's, when Brooke had started down the stair case.

Lucas stared at her coming down as if she was some sort of angel. He hair was done up so that only two strands hung down her cheeks and she was wearing a blue dress that was tight in all the right places.

"Yyyouu look amazing", Lucas stuttered. Brooke immediately blushed a thank you. "You don't look bad yourself" she winked. "So we getting this show on the road, I'm starving", she added.

"After you", Lucas gestered her out the door.

NOT THE PLAN

As soon as the driver had taken off, the awkwardness of the situation had finally sunken in. The back seat was completely silent and Brooke and Lucas were just sitting there and for the first time since Brooke had moved in, she couldn't think of anything to say.

Brooke was about to try and start a conversation when ring ring Lucas's phone interuppted the silence.

"Hello". Lucas then went silent and his expression was unreadable, Brooke didn't know who was on the other line, and it was driving her crazy.

"Yeah, that's fine, but I actually am bringing my girlfriend with me so..."

Brooke immediately shot up at the mentioning of her being Lucas's girlfriend. When she agreed to be his pretend date, she really didn't consider everything that she would have to do. She was going to have to actually pretend to be in love with Lucas, flirt with Lucas...kiss Lucas.

Brooke's head was spinning so fast with realization she didn't even notice, that not only did Lucas already end his phone conversation, but they were at the resturaunt.

After getting seated, the awkwardness had died down.

"So are you ok?", asked Lucas sounding concerned. "Yeah, why do you ask?"

"Just on the ride over, you seemed to be thinking really hard about something."

Brooke didn't want to let Lucas know that she was having second thoughts, he would be crushed, and he already spent a fortune on new clothes for her. "I uh, I was just really tired from today, that's all."

"Ok then...", said Lucas not all the reassured. "So who was on the phone?", asked Brooke.

"The bride actually, she was just asking if it was going to just be me and Liz or not", Lucas explained.

"Oh.." "Brooke, you sure you are ok?", Lucas asked again.

"Well, honestly, I am just kind of...kind of nervous about pretending to be your girlfriend...I mean everyone is going to be able to tell we aren't really dating, it is me and you after all", She joked

Lucas was a little hurt by this statement, it actually confused him why he was upset, she was only joking.

"yeah...I guess your right, huh. You know if you don't want to do it, it's fine...I mean I really shouldn't have asked you in the first place...I just..."

Brooke instantly felt bad, she didn't really know why, she hadn't really done anything wrong, but she knew she had to fix it.

" I never said I wouldn't do it, I just said we wouldn't be that convincing. I mean I don't even know if you are a good kisser or not, not that I am saying you don't look like you would be, actually you look like you would be an amazing kisser, not that I have thought about kissing you or anything" Brooke nervously rambled.

Lucas couldn't help but laugh at how open she was.

"So amazing huh" Lucas said trying to make the brunette blush. Brooke though had instantly regained composure and decided to turn the tables.

"Yeah I mean you are extemely good looking. Why, don't you think I would be a good kisser?", she asked with a grin of pure evil.

Lucas blushing nevouly answered, "I...uh...what I mean is...um.."

Brooke getting up walked over to Lucas's side of the table and then whispered, "It's ok, we'll find out soon enough, right." before heading off to the restroom.

Once in the restroom Brooke had to rethink everything.

She didn't know what had came over her, one minute she was freaking out about just the thought of her and Lucas, and the next she was practically throwing herself at him. Brooke finally decided that she would not worry about the wedding, and just have some fun with it. After regaining her composure for second time that night she walked back out to the table.

Lucas looked someone what confused and nervous and Brooke couldn't help but laugh at how easily she made him squirm.

"So you still agreeing to come to the wedding with me, like I said before it would really mean a lot", asked Lucas.

"Yeah I'll go, but under one condition", the brunette replied. "Whats that", he asked.

"You answer some questions."

"I can do that.", he said. "Ok then, first things first. How do you know the maid of honor, its been driving me crazy and I want to know."

Lucas didn't respond right away, and Brooke was kind of scared that she ruined everything. Until finally he spoke.

"Sh...she was sisters with Liz's mom, and although at one point me and her were great friends, along with my Brother, his future wife Haley, and my best friend Jake, after things didn't work out with Lindsay, Liz's mom, she blamed me and I don't know I just hate her looking down on me, and me not having a date would get her working schemes to get me and Lindsay back together and I just don't want to deal with it."

Brooke didn't know how to resond to that, Lucas had really just opened up to her.

After being silent for some time Brooke finally spoke. "Ok, I'll do it."

Lucas instantly stopped his brooding and was wearing a huge grin. "Really Brooke, this means the world to me, thank you"

Before Brooke could respond Lucas had her in a bear hug. "Lucas!"

"yeah", he replied. "Your smuttering me!", she tried to get out. "Sorry, I don't know what came over me...it just means the world to me that you are going to do this for me...and Liz of course."

"Don't worry about", she smiled. "It's probably about time we head home though, I'm exhauted and we leave in two days for North Carolina right."

"Yeah we do", he smiled leading the way out of the restuaraunt.

NOT THE PLAN

Brooke was lying in her bed replaying her day and she couldn't explain how living with Lucas and Liz has changed her. She never knew life could be this enjoyable, but the one thing she knew was she wasn't ready to give it up to soon.

A/N: Well we found out who Liz's mom was, hope none of you hate me lol. Hoped you liked the chapter and as always reviews will give me inspiration (god knows the show itself isn't giving me any)

Next Chapter: going to North Carolina. Will Brucas share a kiss? How will Liz react? Will Brooke and Peyton get a long? How will Naley and Jeyton react to Brooke...
