I still …
The next day Brooke awoke in Lucas' arms. The way she wanted it to be, the way it was supposed to be. It felt so good having someone there and having someone next to you to be there and protect you. It seemed so perfect hearing Lucas breath slowly and feeling his hot breath on her neck. It was so perfect it made her smile.
Brooke decided it was time to end the perfection so she turned over and kissed Lucas on the lips.
"I awoke the sleeping beauty!" Brooke said as Lucas opened his eyes.
"Yes, you did …" Lucas said and Brooke gave him another kiss
"So how did you sleep?" Lucas asked
"Like a princess" Brooke said smiling remembering how perfect it was.
"Good" Lucas said and pulled her closer to him giving her another kiss.
"You smell go take a shower" Brooke said and smiled.
"Oh I do, do I?" Lucas said and tickled Brooke.
"Ahhh Lucas …Stop! Luke seriously it tickles!" Brooke yelled fighting him. It was so funny watching Brooke squirm but he needed to get ready so he stopped.
"Thank you! … So what are you doing today?" Brooke asked
"Actually I sort of have a meeting with a girl about my book" Lucas said
"Really … maybe you'll get it published!" brook said excited
"Don't get your hopes up … I have meeting about this book every once in a while and its usually just about how I need to give it a while before I get my hopes up about it getting published" Lucas said
"Well you never know Luke! … By the way when do I get to read this book?" Brooke asked nosey about what it said about her.
"When it gets published!" Lucas said
"Fine!" Brooke pouted.
"Hey Brooke" Eric said and walked out of his room.
"Hey … how did you sleep?" Brooke asked
"Pretty good … where is Lucas?" Eric asked
"Oh he had a meeting about his novel" Brooke said
"Novel?" Eric asked
"Oh umm Lucas is a huge literary fan" Brooke explained
"Oh" Eric said
"Yeah … so what are you doing today?" Brooke asked
"Umm I don't really know I think I might be looking for an apartment if there are even any available" Eric said
"Sounds fun... want a waffle?" Brooke asked as her toaster popped
"Sure" Eric said taking one.
"Thank you Eric" Brooke said
"For what?" Eric asked
"You are being so great about this whole Lucas thing … I am really proud of you" Brooke said
"Brooke don't be so quick to judge … I am still in love with you and I have every intention in the world of showing you that … I still love you Brooke Davis and you can love me" Eric said and left to get ready. Brooke sat there shocked she never knew this part of Eric he was always so sweet.
"Oh hello Mr. Scott" the woman said as Lucas walked into her office.
"Hi…" Lucas said not knowing her name
"My name is Lindsey," the woman said
"Oh hi Lindsey" Lucas said
"Hello … lets get this started" Lindsey said and Lucas took a seat.
"Lucas for the past year I have read novel after novel looking for something that would actually bring light to my life … something that I could edit and say ' I am proud that was my first novel to edit' but it never came to me … until 2 weeks ago when I picked up An Unkindness of Ravens, Lucas I want this book to the first book I edit" Lindsey said
" Are you serious! … Oh my god! You wouldn't believe how happy I am right now! I can't wait to tell Brooke!" Lucas said excited
"Brooke as in Brooke Davis from the story?" Lindsey asked
"Yeah it's a long story," Lucas said
"Well I hope to hear about it in the sequel" Lindsey said and Lucas jumped for joy.
" Brooke Penelope Davis!" Lucas called as he got out the two spoons and chocolate ice cream he just bought.
"Yea?" Brooke said and came out
"Here take a spoon" Lucas said and handed her the spoon
"Hmm what are we celebrating?" Brooke asked excited
"Us … the couple that got my book published" Lucas said excited
"Oh my god! Congratulations Lucas!" Brooke said and squeezed him into a hug. They both sat down and ate their ice cream.
"Hey where is Eric at?" Lucas asked
"Oh he is looking for an apartment but enough about him! … Looks like I will get to read that book after all!" Brooke said and took another bite of ice cream.
"Yep … you have some ice cream right here though" Lucas said and slowly but passionately kissed her.
"Wow" Brooke said shocked by his kiss.
"I still …" Lucas began but was afraid to finish.
"What?" Brooke asked worried
"I still love you … I don't think I ever stopped … I am in love with you Brooke Davis" Lucas said and Brooke looked at him awe like she couldn't feel her heart even though it was beating a million times a minute.
"Oh god Lucas … I still love you too! I never stopped!" Brooke said and kissed him passionately but soft and sweet.
"Wow" they both said and laughed.
"Hales can I talk to you?" Brooke said
"Yeah come on in" Haley said and let Brooke come in.

"No problem what's up?" Haley asked worried
"My head is spinning … I'm loosing it hales! Lucas told me he loved me today!" Brooke began
"Oh my gosh! Brooke that's great!" Haley said in excitement

"Brooke you cant let Eric ruin brucas!" Haley said
"Did you just say brucas!? … Whatever besides the point … I know it's just what do I do I can't just kick him out!" Brooke said
"Why not?" Haley asked
"Hales he is a friend" brook said
"Ok fine… just make sure he isn't more than that!" Haley said and Brooke nodded
