Ten Things You Should Never say to Your Bartender Chapter 10, an one tree hill fanfic

So here it is, the last Chapter. I hope you all like it. I'm not sure if I'm going to do a sequel or not. You be the judge. This will be the first story that I actually have completed. The ending is not what you expect, so I am sorry for that. The song is called More Than Words by Extreme.

Ten Things You Should Never say to Your Bartender

Chapter 10: I Love You

Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
Its not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you I have to say that you love me
Cos Id already know

#10 I Love You

What is love, anyways? Some people believe it is a spark that generates when Mr. and Ms. Right meet. They believe in love at first sight. All that crap that you are told to believe by watching all those sappy love stories and lifetime movies. No wonder so many people are single and divorced. You fall in love, and you can fall out of it. And, with that you get your heart broken, which is something that I'm not ready for.

I love you. Why would you say that? It's too soon for those words, especially strong words such as love. We hardly know each other. You can't love me, it's not possible.

I can't deal with that right now. I have so much going on in my life and I don't know if there is room for anything else. I know I may have led you to believe that it was possible, but in all actuality its not. I'm sorry. I will only end up hurting. So maybe it's best for you to stay away.

So whatever you do, don't say you love me. Not again anyways.

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldnt make things new
Just by saying I love you

"Brooke will you just talk to me?" Lucas said pleading to talk to me. "What's up with rule #10? Is this about what I said last night?

More than words

Flashback

Lucas was dropping me off at my house.

"Thank you for coming with me Luke it really meant a lot to me." I said to him.

He smiled back at me. "Anything for you Brooke. I love you." He said without even realizing what he had just said.

"I've gotta go Luke. Thanks for the ride." I said and then went in the house.

Now Ive tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close dont ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldnt have to say that you love me
Cos Id already know

"Lucas, I'm working. I can't talk now. If you look around you will see that we are busy." I continued pouring drinks.

Lucas pulled out a twenty and placed it in front of me. "Now, I'm a customer. I would like a drink."

"What can I get you?" I asked him.

"What should I have?" He asked me knowing that would get me to smile.

"Does it look like I know you? How would I know what you want?" I asked with a smile remembering back on the first night we met.

"Yeah, it does look like you know me, but I'll take a long island." Lucas said smiling.

"Alright, so what do you want to talk about?" I asked while making his drink.

"What I said." Lucas looked at me. "I didn't mean to scare you off, but I did mean it."

"I can't I'm sorry." I said placing the drink in front of him.

"Look, I have to get back to work. I'm sorry Lucas. You're a great guy, but you are going through a divorce and I'm….well I'm dealing with my own mess." I said to him.

"So that's it?" He asked me, I could tell he was hoping I would say no.

"Lucas what did you expect? That we would fall in love?" I asked him knowing that was exactly what he thought.

"Yeah, I did." Lucas said nodding his head.

"There are just some things you should never say to your bartender." I said before walking off.

Ok so that's it. I know not the ending you were hoping for, but I still hope you like it. Please Review.
