Hi guys... So here is another chapter. I hope you like it.
So listening to music while writing makes ne write a lot faster. I think that's because then my mind is clear and I just concentrate on what I'm writing, but right now both Sam Smiths and Ed Sheeran's albums are AWESOME! I've listened to both of them while writing and I would totally recommending them.
This chapter has a special dedication... I want to dedicate this chapter to Long Live BRUCAS as an early birthday present. Happy Birthday and thank you so much for reading and reviewing my story
Anyway here is the next chapter... ENJOY!
There was a loud knock on the door which woke me up. I opened my bedroom door to see Peyton do the same thing. She looked down the hall at me and yawned with a shrug of her shoulders. I yawned too and done a little stretch when the knock came again. I walked down the hall beside Peyton and then we both went to the door. I reached out for the handle on the door and unlocked it then pulled the door open to see a delivery man standing there. He had a bouquet of flowers in his hand with a card and a box.
"Are you a Miss Brooke Davis?" He asks looking down at the clip board in his hand
"Erm... Yeah that's me" I reply with a confused expression on my face.
The guy looked up at me and smiled. He was cute... Maybe a little older than me with these grey eyes that I've never seen before "These are for you Brooke" I smile up at him and take the gifts from him "Sign here for me please" I nod and sigh the sheet of paper for him "Thank you" I nod at him and step back into the apartment "Happy Birthday Brooke" I smile again and then shut the door.
"Who are they from?" Peyton asks once the door is shut and I have placed the gifts on the counter.
"Probably from My Aunt in Ohio... Every year she sends me gifts for my birthday, but never an invitation to visit her or he visit me" I reply picking out the car from the flowers... My heart stopped just for a second and all blood drained from my face when I read the card.
"So who they from then?" I look up at Peyton and her eyes dart to the card in my hand. She takes it from me and reads it.
To Brooke,
I know it's been 4 months since we broke up and I know I haven't got in touch with you or even tried to fight for you, but I've been thinking of a way to get you back. I want you back baby and I'm going to fight for you.
Don't get mad at me, but I hired someone to keep an eye on you and I know you've been spending a lot of time with that guy I caught you with and I'm not mad about that, but I'm a little disappointed that you didn't even wait a couple of weeks before jumping into bed with him. I thought you were better than that.
Anyway I hope you like the gifts and I hope you enjoy your day. Happy Birthday baby girl. I'll see you soon.
I love you Brooke

"The nerve of that jackass" Peyton says brining me out of my thoughts. I don't say anything. I grab the box from the counter and slowly open it to reveal a white platinum bracelet with single letters spelling out my name. It was beautiful, but it was from him and I didn't want anything from him. I wanted him to leave me alone.
"Why won't he just let it go?" I finally speak, but my voice first comes out as a whisper "He has to let me go... He has to let go"
And then the phone rings. I snatch it up knowing exactly who it would be and I was right.
"Chris what the hell?" I snap into the phone "Why did you send these?"
"Because I always get you something for you birthday baby"
"Don't call me that" I grit my teeth "I don't want your gifts Chris. We're not together anymore... Why won't you except that"
"Because he took you away from me and I won't let him have you" Chris barked loudly at me.
I sigh running a hand through my hair "Lucas didn't take me from you Chris... God this isn't Lucas's fault. it is yours... You changed. You become the asshole that ruined everything so stop blaming everyone and start blaming your fucking self because I'm done okay. I don't care what you do. I don't care what you say Keller. Me and you are NEVER getting back together do you understand me"
"But Brooke... I..."
"NEVER Chris" And with that I hang up slamming the phone down on the holder once again.
"You okay?" Peyton asks rubbing my arms to calm me down
"Yeah" I nod sitting down on the stool by the island "Thanks"
"So I got you something" I look u at my bestfriend and see the huge grin spread across her face
"Peyt you didn't have to"
"Of course I did... It's your birthday Davis" Peyton ran down the hall to her room and then came back with a medium size box "Happy Birthday " She placed the box on top of the counter in front of me "Go on open it"
I roll my eyes at her and turn on the stool and gradually open the present. My eyes widen at the gift inside. I look back at Peyton and she was still grinning "O.M.G Peyt you didn't"
"Oh but I did Brookie" I jump up at throw myself at her giving her the biggest hug ever "So you like it?"
"I love it thank you" I pulled the Brown and Black Gucci bag from the box. The one I've always wanted.
"Your most welcome" I kiss her cheek "Your the best you know that right"
She nods "Yeah I've been told" I smile then skipped down the hall to my room.
"I'm going to get ready for the day okay" I heard her call back to me as I shut the door.

I walked back down the hall from getting ready for the day just as Lucas walked in through the front door. He looked up and smiled at me. Oh that smile melts my heart every time. He melts my heart every day. He stood there with that boyish look on his face in a v-neck top and black jeans "Happy Birthday Brooke"
I run towards him and jump into his arms my legs wrapping around his waist. He wrapped his arms around my waist as my lips came down to his. After a few minutes I jump back down at smile up at him "How did you know about my birthday?"
"A little birdie told me" He replies
"Could that birdie be Peyton by any chance?"
He shakes his head and I tilt my head in confusion "Actually it was Jake"
"Ahh the other birdie" Lucas laughed then held out a gift bag for me
"I got you two presents" I looked down at the gift bag and smiled "Happy Birthday Pretty Girl" I took the bag from him and looked inside my eyes widening for the third time today "I wasn't sure what you would want so I asked Peyton"
He got me a channel bottle of perfume and a channel bag. The other bag I've always wanted and to top it off there was a me to you bear inside with a heart. I loved them.
"Thank you Luke" I sprung up on my tip toes and kissed him lightly on the lips.
"Anything for you" I smiled then watched as his eyes travelled to the flowers and gift box on the counter. Peyton must have sorted the flowers out for me, but left the bracelet on the counter with the card "Those are pretty. Who brought you those?"
"No one important" I say snatching the card from the counter and ripping it in two then throwing it in the trash can.
"Brooke..." His stern tone had my heart beating at a fast rate. I don't know why, but I don't like that disapproving tone and it doesn't matter from who. I just don't like it. I look away from him and grab the flowers from the case and walk to the door to throw them out.
"It doesn't matter Lucas... They don't mean anything anyway" I then throw them out onto the street watching as the wind tore the flowers apart and they slowly blow away.
"They were from chris weren't they?" He was suddenly behind me. I could feel the warmth from his body and the heat from his breath was on my neck. I didn't wanna turn around because I didn't want to see the hurt expression on his face.
Those flowers they really didn't mean anything to me. They weren't even my favourite ones which on some level hurt me because I was with Chris 6 years and he didn't even know my favourite flowers and it got me thinking what else didn't he know about me?
I was suddenly spun around to face Lucas. I refused to make eye contact with me; that was until he placed two of his fingers under my chin and tilts my head up so my eyes finally met his. They weren't filled with anything. I could read them and that worried me. Did he think I was waiting for Chris to change? Did he think that at some point I was going to go back to him because in not.
"Those were from Chris weren't they Brooke?" He asks again and I slowly nod watching him carefully. I watched as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He stepped away from me and turned around. I saw him run his hand through his hair taking a deep breath in then letting it put.
"Lucas..." I attempt to say
"I can't compete with him Brooke" He cuts in and I was taken back from that statement and Lucas carried on "I just... I don't know how to. You and him have history and a lot of it... I can't match up to what you guys had"
"We had nothing" I cut in "We had nothing Lucas... I wasn't happy with him okay. I was comfortable at the life style we had" Lucas doesn't look at me as I talk and the hurt just kept building inside me "Yeah okay so me and Chris have history and yeah it's a long history, but it's not like it was good. Maybe the first year or so, but once we hit college it changed"
"And if he comes back for you Brooke" He says finally turning to me. I now saw the hurt in his eyes. The worry in there too and my heart goes out to him. I care... I care a lot for this guy and I'm not going to let Chris ruin this... I just won't "I really can't go through the hurt again"
"And I wouldn't do that to you Luke" I assure him. I slowly walk up to him and wrap my arms around his neck leaning up on my toes "I wouldn't hurt you like that. I promise"
"I believe you" He whispers jut enough for me to hear him and then as to seal the promise I kiss him. Lightly at first, but then the passion and want for him rushes over me so I jump up and wrap my legs around his waist. Lucas walks is down the hall to my room our lips still connected.
Once in my room I hear the door close and then Lucas slowly lowers me down on the bed out lips still together. I reach up to bull his shirt over his head when he stops me. I look up into his eyes and still see the worried expression in them "You sure Brooke" I nod and he smiles at me the worry disappearing he connected our lips again and his shirt was over his head and hit the floor.

"This wasn't too soon right?" Lucas's question caught me off guard. I traced circles on his chest as it raised and fell with every breath he took "I mean us sleeping together... Was it too soon after you and Chris..."
"I hadn't slept with Chris for months before we broke up Luke" I cut in. I could feel him run his fingers up and down my arms as my head laid on his chest "But no. I don't think it was too soon" I look up at him and kiss his cute pink lips "You actually got me 4 presents by the way" He raised his eye brow in confusion "The bag, The perfume, The Teddy bear and this" I point around us signalling what we had just done "I consider this as birthday sex" Lucas laughed and I giggled
"Oh I like that" Lucas smiles pushing his body up so he knocked me off of him and onto my back. I look and see Lucas hover above me "Your really beautiful Brooke" I could feel my cheeks go red at his compliment.
"Thank you" I utter back as Lucas leans his lips down to mine. He was only inches away and I craved him again. I craved the feeling he made me feel just moments ago. He brushed his lips over mine and I whimper wanting him to kiss me badly and he smiles at that.
"Meet my Ma tomorrow?" I open my eyes and kink up my eye brow at him
"W-What?" I stutter not expecting that
"Well she and Lilly are coming home for a couple of days and I want you to meet them" Lucas wants me to meet his Mom. Wait... I've only met Chris's parents and that was only because they came home early from work one night when I was at his. They loved me and I loved them. They were great "Please?" I was brought back to reality when Lucas spoke again.
"Way to put that on me while your hovering above me looking all hot"
Lucas grinned and leaned down and kissed me "So whatcha say?" He asks when he pulls away
"Lucas I really don't do well with parents... I mean I've only met Chris's"
"But I know my Ma will love you and Lilly. Oh she will adore you that's for sure. I mean Bekah loves you doesn't she" Lucas states and I sigh rolling my eyes.
"Yes Bekah loves me, but that only happened because I was her Nanny and now I'm dating her Uncle"
"Exactly we're dating so you'll have to meet then eventually right?"
"Broody..."
"Pretty Girl..." He copied putting on the puppy dog look
I groaned and he smiled "Okay fine I'll met your Ma and Lilly tomorrow"
"Awesome" Lucas beams that boyish smile that I loved about him... Wait... I just said it again... that word. The L word. I mean like about him... The smile I like about him... That's better. The L word is a curse. If you use it too soon then the relationship is doomed "Now let's get back to what was about to happen"
"And what is that Broody?" I ask innocently and before I knew it Lucas started to tickle me. I screamed and laughed. Great Lucas now knows I'm ticklish and he knows where. oh god I just know his going to use it against me in the future.
