Chapter 13. You can bury old feeling
Brooke approached the rivercourt as she got out of her car. She saw she little boy play with the guys, Lucas stood by and watched, laughing whenever, Davis stole the ball from Skills, and threw it Jamie, so he could score.
She stood by watching for about five minutes when Lucas noticed her presents and asked her to come closer.
"Hey, why did you wanted me to come?" She asked, and sat down with Lucas on the picknick table. "I thought you might wanted to see this." Lucas said and nodded at Davis who just made a basket.
"Thanks, it's good to see him so happy, see with other people, I think I might have been a little overprotective, since we left." Brooke admitted, with a smile.
"How is he doing, is he still giving you a hard time?" Brooke asked. She turned to Lucas so Davis wouldn't notice her, she didn't want to redo the whole goodbye thing of yesterday.
"No, that was pretty much over after breakfast, I guess pancakes is the magical word." Lucas told her smiling. "Yah, I took me a lot longer to figure that out." Brooke said, she had to admit that it felt good having a normal conversation with Lucas.
Lucas thought the same way about it , and also saw his way in. "Hey, would you like to join us, me and Dave, for dinner?" Lucas asked. Brooke smiled, there was nothing she wanted more than to spent a little more time with her son, but she also figured it be better to confuse the boy, in how the relationships were in this big family called Tree Hill.
"No, I promised Peyton and Julian to go out with them to night, without Dave, is kind nice to have it peaceful and quiet around the house." Brooke lied.
"Oh, okay, I just thought that it would cheer you and Davey up." He said disappointed, and stood up and walked towards the court.
"Het Luke, I'm going to go now, thank you for calling me, and for invite." She said and then returned to her car. She vaguely smiled while she turned around and got in her car.
She felt like she didn't want to leave…,but how? How was it possible for her to want to be with Lucas and Davey as a family, how was that possible, or did she just want to spend time with her son. Yes, that was probably it, she just missed her son. Looking in her mirror she saw Lucas picking up her boy holding him up above his head so her could score.
Or was it Lucas, or her need to be a family. She didn't know.
When she came home, there was a note of the kitchen counter that said. "Hey Brooke I'm sorry to tell you this way but you phone was off, I have to go back to LA for a few days, I'll be back as soon as possible, I'll call you when I land. Love Julian"
She sighed, and turned her phone on. A missed call from Julian, from about two hours ago, and a voicemail from Peyton. She called her voicemail and listen to the message.
"Hey, Brooke, I ran into Anna and we're heading out for dinner and some drinks at post blue after so, you can catch up on us there, bye"
"Great, so I'm alone" Brooke concluded. She hate to be alone, and now she was completely alone because not even Davis was there. Maybe…. No that wasn't a smart thing to do, she could handle a night alone! Just ice cream and a good movie, she'd be fine.
About an hour later around six o'clock. Brookes car pulled up in front of Lucas' house. She got out of the car and took a deep breath. She still didn't believe she was doing this, but the silent empty house had been driving her crazing.
She knocked on the door and on the other side of the door the familiar face of Lucas Scott appeared. "Any chance you offer still stands?" She asked. There appeared a smile on Lucas' face at the question.
"Of course, but what happened? I thought you went out with Julian and Peyton?" Lucas asked worried. Brooke smiled shyly.
"Julian had to leave town for a few days, and Peyton is out with some old friends. I'm not really used to being home alone, you know without Dave." Brooke admitted.
"Well, you're still welcome, and he stepped aside to let her in. "Thank you.. I'm not so good with the lonely thing." She said.
"Mommy!" Davis came running at her. She bent forwards to catch the boy in her arms. "Ah, I missed you, little man." She said. Lucas smiled by seeing the reunification of mother and son.
"So, what were your plans, well I was thinking about going to the café." Lucas said. "yeah what's up with that anyway, I thought Karen left?" Brooke asked because Karen's café was still Karen's café.
"She sold the place, with name." Lucas told her, and helped Davis in his coat. "Oh, well I think it's the perfect way to continue the café." Brooke said. And picked her boy up, and bounced him on her hip.
"Yah, shall we?" He asked as gestured to the door. "Yah, let's go" She said.
Brooke and Lucas returned to Lucas' childhood home that night with a sleeping Davis. Brooke walked right through to Davis bedroom to put him down while Lucas lit the fireplace, turned down the lights, and pressed play on his CD-Player. She poured two drinks, and waited till Brooke returned to the living room.
Finally Brooke returned to the living room and she looked surprised up at the lit fireplace and the drinks. "Luke, I think it's better if I go home, Peyton is probably home by now so I'm going to take off." She said.
Lucas didn't want her to leave, he could use to company too so he said: "I don't think Peyton is back yet, but maybe you should call home, see if she'd home if she's not then promise you'll stay" He said, hoping Peyton was having a good time with her old friends.
"Okay, I promise." Brooke said and picked up the phone and called home. It went to voice mail. "Peyton are you home pick up" Brooke called. "Peyton?" but there was no answer.
"Told you, she's probably just having a good time, now sit down." Lucas said, happy he got Brooke to stay.
"Okay, you win" Brooke chuckled. "Yah!" Lucas called. Brooke sat down smiling by the strangely happy response.
Brooke picked up the drink he poured her and took a sip. "So, I'm glad I came tonight, I had a good time." She said admittedly. "Me too, I'm glad you changed your mind." Lucas replied.
"Davey is doing a lot better lately" She said. "If by lately you mean the last twelve hours, then, yes" He chuckled. Brooke smiled "then I guess I mean that." she replied.
An hour and a couple of drinks later. Brooke and Lucas and had made it pretty comfortable. Lucas seemed more than comfortable with Brooke in his house on his couch listening to stories of college, about people she'd known from before she left.
Brooke finished her sixth drink, containing serious alcohol. "So, you woke up, and Emma was on top of you and at the same time Haley came in with Jamie?" Brooke asked as confirmation.
"Yes, you should have seen her face!" Lucas chuckled finishing his third drink containing serious alcohol.
"Ha, I wish I would've been there!" she laughed. Lucas who was a lot less tipsy than Brooke bent forward to wipe cream of her face, but as It couldn't be more cliché, kissed her. Plainly and light on her lips. Brooke looked a little hazy out of her eyes, stared at him and before she could respond to the to her unacceptable behavior. Lucas crashed his lips on hers.
Impatiently bagging for entrance to her mouth, Lucas placed his hands on the back of her neck.
Brooke who got tired of opposing Lucas gave into the kissing and let Lucas' tongue enter her mouth. Heavily making out Lucas pushed Brooke down on the couch. Moving his hands down her torso, Brooke objected, Lucas somehow managed to talk her into it.
As he pulled her up, still heavily making out, Lucas mumbled "Bedroom" and pulled her with him of the couch.
Brooke knew what she was doing was bad, really bad, but she couldn't stop. The more she resisted the more, she less she was able to stop.
Brooke hit the door of his bedroom with her back as Lucas slammed her against it. He opened the door with one hand while he tried to unbutton her blouse, and still tried to kiss her.
The door swung open as Lucas turned the doorknob, and he and Brooke swung inside with the door.
Brooke started to unbutton his shirt and pulled it off as it was open. Taking over, Brooke pushed Lucas to the bed and straddled his lap. Feeling his erected penis and she opened his pants, and pulled them down. Lucas had his hands around her waist as she undid herself from her clothes.
Brooke tossed her blouse and top behind her on the ground, and Lucas moved his hands up to the clasp of her bra, and unhooked it.
Lucas opened her pants and worked them down while he pushed her flat on the bed. Stopped for a little moment looking at Brooke, then turned around closed the door of his bedroom and pulled her thong from her butt, and pulling his boxers down.
He straddled her hips and burying his cock inside of her as they both let out a loud moan. Brooke threw her head back, as Lucas massaged her breasts, while thrusting in and out.
Feeling a orgasm ripping through her body, Brooke was completely somber, and realizing what she just did. "Lucas" She spoke with an extremely breathy voice. "Yah," Lucas replied, moving up a little and lying down next to her, under the sheets. She pulled the sheets up over her breasts, while Lucas turned her his side so he could face her while they spoke.
He pulled a lock of hair out of her face. "This was stupid" she whispered, as she locked her concerned eyes on his.
"Why?" Lucas asked her. "Because, I'm with Julian, because I don't want to confuse Davis." Brooke said.
"How, confuse?" Lucas spoke softly, as he moved his finger over the forehead. "Lucas, I love Julian, I don't want to get back together." She spoke, quiet because she didn't want to hurt him.
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't know you and Julian were that far" Lucas said. "What do you mean?" she asked. "That you love him." Lucas repeated.
"Did I say love?" she asked like it was totally new to her. "Yah, you did" Lucas said. "I guess I just had to sleep with you to find out that it is love" Brooke mumbled.
He stroked her hair, and kissed her lips. "Share with me this last night, Julian doesn't need to know." Lucas spoke as he slipped his hand underneath the sheets, and moved his fingers over her tummy, between her legs, moving them just a little to pursue her. When she said nothing, not giving in, not backing out. He started to finger her. "Okay, okay, she chuckled before it was interrupted by a moan. He kissed her, she entered her tongue in his mouth, while her continued to finger her. Slowly he retook his place on top of her replacing his fingers for his penis.
When Peyton got home that night everything was back, which was just like she'd expected, Brooke and Julian were probably sleeping. So she crept quietly to her room.
Next morning…
Peyton rolled out of bed, and decided to not let her hangover ruin her day. So she baked herself some eggs and grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge.
She sat down on one of the stools at the counter with her breakfast when she saw Julian's note. She sighed and glanced at Brooke's bedroom door. "Poor Brooke first night without Davis and then immediately totally alone." Peyton thought.
Brooke woke up by Lucas who was staring at her. She could feel that with her eyes closed, and judging from the light that was coming through her eyelids she preferred to keep them closed. As she turned around she couldn't feel her head. All she felt was pain, ripping through her head.
But as Lucas wouldn't stop staring at her, she opened her eyes. "Argh" she groaned. "Good morning to you too sleepy" Lucas said. The comment in combination with the alcohol, made Brooke sick and she ran to the bathroom, to throw up.
She stumbled back to the bedroom and closed the door. She was completely naked, and Lucas enjoyed watching her walk back to bed. "Wow, I figured you had one too many drinks last night. Brooke gave him a "shut up" look.
"Hung over?" he asked. And Brooke replied with an other, that's-a-stupid-thing-to-ask look.
"Sorry," He said. She lay down in bed and closed her eyes. Lucas putted an arm around her and kissed her forehead. She was too hangover and tired to complain about the kiss.
So Lucas, who apparently was that naïve, kissed her lips, once, twice, thrice, till somehow he yet again convinced her this was a good idea. She kissed him back, she placed her hands on the sides of his face, and so the battle of the tongues began.
Lucas had quickly managed his hands under the sheets, moving them up and down Brookes body. When they heard the front door opened. "Shit" Brooke hissed. "Who can that be?"
She got up out of bed and started to retrieve her clothes. "Haley, she promised to come by this morning." Lucas said. "Well go out there an talk to her, I'll take this door." Brooke said, slipping into her pants. "Okay, I'm going out," Lucas said. But instead walked to Brooke, "What are you doing" she hissed. He kissed her forehead, and then turned around, and left the bedroom.
Brooke was stunned, "how could he think that this was a new begin for them." She thought frustrated. She placed on the rest of her clothes and as she left she realized she left her purse in the living room.
"Luke? Are you two lazy boys still sleeping?" Haley called. "Not anymore" Lucas replied as he snuck out his bedroom. "Haley narrowed her eyes, as she saw the appearance of her best friend. "What have you been up to?" she asked. "Sleeping" He said. "With who?" Haley replied. "With who, since when do you need someone for that?" he asked provoking Haley into a conversation he knew she didn't want.
"What did you two boys do, that Davis is still sleeping?" Haley asked, knowing that a three year old usually was up at sunrise.
"We went out last night, for dinner, so it got a little late." Lucas admitted, while leaving out that Brooke accompanied them. "Luke, he's only three years old, you can't take him out that late" Haley said worried.
Lucas went into the kitchen and turned on the water cooker. "I know, it's just that we hit off pretty rough yesterday, so I wanted to celebrate, that we were doing better." Lucas said.
Haley sat down. She was worried about her friend. "Luke, is it really that bad?" She asked.
"Yah, well, he kept yelling he wanted Brooke, till yesterday morning, then he started to tell all sorts of thing he had done with Brooke and Peyton over the past years." Lucas told her. "Then I gathered up the guys, and we went to the rivercourt."
"Yeh, Jamie told me." Haley replied. "I'm sorry, Luke. Kids, are very good at letting people in, in the first three years, in that time they build up this save world. You weren't in there, so now he's being judging over who he likes." She explained.
"Well, we're doing better now," Lucas said hoping, that Davis wouldn't expect Brooke to be there as he woke up.
"Okay, then I'm going" Haley said still worried, but as she saw Lucas making pancakes. She decided to let it go.
-
Brooke snuck into her house, hoping Peyton was either gone or asleep. She went into her bedroom and lay down on her bed. She turned her head to the side and was faced with the truth, she didn't want to face. She looked right at a photo of her and Julian at the beach two weeks ago.
She cheated on Julian. The inescapable truth. What now? Ask Lucas to never mention it again? Embrace the truth as it is, and tell Julian?
She stripped of her clothes and took a shower. She was confused, she loved Julian, she realized that last night, after she cheated on him.
She cried as she let the hot water stream over the body. Her thoughts were interrupted by a voice. She turned off the water and grabbed a towel.
Wrapped in a towel she left her bathroom and entered het living room. Julian was standing in the room. "Hey, you're back" she concluded, not sure if she was happy.
"Yah, I'm sorry I had to leave so quick." Julian said and embraced her as her noticed her swollen eyes. She knew she was happy to have him back. His presence felt good.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't there, so quickly after losing Davis." He said. This made Brooke cry, she felt so guilty,
Julian comforted her without really knowing what made her cry. "Hey, it's Friday, you're going to see him today" He said, placing his hand on her face, wiping the tears off her face.
He pulled her into a kiss and then she placed her head with wet hair on his chest. "I missed you." She said. He kissed the top of her head. He rocked her, to calm her down. And whispered: "I'm not going anywhere anymore."
My loved readers, I blame Brookes unfaithful behaviour on Aura She just writes the best Brucas story, makes you see the magic. So it's her fault! I could say blame it on the alcohol, but you all knoiw that's not true! It's Aura's fault. I'm not resposable. You think she should tell Julian? and if she does how will Julian respond to her on faithful behaviour. (she can't blame it on Aura) Let me know!
