Chapter 7

They both arrived at different times but saw each other when the cheerleaders arrived later on the court to stretch. Again they would send each other a few stares and automatically Brooke would blush. Brooke went to go drink a sip of water but before she gave a look at Lucas meaning 'Come here.' He got the sign and found her in the hall. They went into a corner where no one was there.

'Good Luck tonight.'

'You too. You better be cheering for me.'

'Always.'

They gave each other a kiss before leaving. The only thing they didn't know was that Rachel, Brooke's worst enemy, was at the corner and saw everything.

The game started well. After the first half the 'Ravens' were leading. Half into the second half the 'Ravens' were winning by 20 points.

Brooke was on the sideline and was cheering like hell! All the girls were really happy. Peyton was smiling. Lately she seemed very sad but today she was happy. Brooke knew what it was. Peyton went after the only thing she ever wanted, Jake.

The game was over and the 'Ravens' won hands down. Like usual there was a party at Tim's house to celebrate the victory. Also another tradition the girls would start an 'I Never' game. This year Rachel started it. Nathan, Haley, Peyton, Jake, Mouth and Lucas all joined in.

Brooke decided to go first. She would take any chances to embarrass Rachel.

'I never…had sex with a plastic toy. Drink up Rachel.'

Rachel drank. 'Now my turn.' She paused to pretend to think. 'Um…I never made out with Lucas before tonight's game. Drink up Brooke.'

Everyone looked at the two. Nathan, realizing why he was staring at her the day before. Silence filled the room for two minutes and Brooke was really getting tired of it.

'Fine. You don't believe her?' And Brooke took Lucas' face and kissed him passionately. He also returned the favor. Brooke pulled away and everyone was even quieter than before if that was even possible. 'Come on, Luke.' Brooke grabbed his hand and they left the party. They were outside and they decided that they would take Lucas' car and tomorrow morning Lucas would drive her so she could get her car. It's been a few minutes that they've been in the car and only silenced filled it.

'Look, I'm sorry about back there, she was just getting on my nerve. I know we said we would keep it a secret for now…' Brooke said breaking the silence.

'It's okay.' Lucas said breaking her off. 'Anyways it kind of turned me on what you did back there.' He chuckled and Brooke playfully slapped him. 'Owe.' They were again in silence but now it was comfortable silence. He put on the radio, but Brooke changed the channel. The music that he listened to made her depressed. She changed the channel for the fifth time and finally found a song she liked.

I've been searching for
A heart that needs a heart like mine
I've been reaching for
A hand that understands
I've been waiting for
Someone that I can love
That loves me
Loves me for the one that I am

Someone to hold me when I'm lonely
Someone to keep the rain away
They say
They say

There's one in this world for everyone
One heart
One soul to walk besides you
One in this life to share your love
One touch
To touch the heart inside you
Wanna reach for each night
Wanna trust with your life
That's what I believe
You're the one
The one in this world for me

I've been praying that
Someone like you would rescue me
I've been hoping that
I'll find my way to you
I've been dreaming that
Someday I'll finely find somebody
Somebody to make my dreams come true

Lucas drove Brooke home and promised that he would be back in the morning so that they could and go get her car. They gave each other a good night kiss and both went into different directions.

Lucas was waiting at a red light. Finally it turned green and he pressed on the gas. Lucas was brooding like usual little did he know that a car was heading his direction.
