~~The song is called I do by 98 degrees. Great for a wedding song~~

Brooke wanted to cry at the sight of her in her wedding dress. Everyone that was with her was just glad that she didn't feel like the Great Pumpkin in it. Rachel, Peyton and Haley having been there for hours on end, and had reached beyond their patience levels with the dress shopping, Brooke having been extremely picky with each gown she had tried on—after scrapping the first one. Although most of them had looked ridiculous on her.
Brooke grinned, finding that it was comfortable and stylish as well as elegant. "I love it."
It was a V-Neck sleeveless floor length Empire chiffon bridal gown that was beaded with breathtaking Swarovski Austrian crystals. It was custom fitted to her body and enhanced her pregnancy glow.
"You look absolutely radiant!" Haley gushes, a bright smile on her face.
"I agree! You make a beautiful bride Brooke!" Peyton said as she nodded her approval.
"I can't believe that you found a dress that's this amazing with how—"
Brooke somehow knowing what her sister was going to say, snapped, "Say it and die Rach!"
"I didn't say anything!"
"Well don't! It's bad enough that I think that I'm as huge as a mountain I don't need to hear it from you!"
"That's not what I was going to say anyway!"
"Oh really? What were you going to say?"
"I was going to say that I can't believe that you found a dress this amazing with how picky you are!"
Brooke looked at her with contrition and apologized, "Oh…sorry."
"Although you are—"
"Shut up!"
Rachel got up from her seat and walked over to Brooke and hugged her saying, "I'm just messing around with you little sis. Besides I want my little niece to look like me that's why I bug you!"
"Oh I thought it was because you were always annoying."
"Ladies, ladies I am not feeling any love in this room!" Peyton said, interrupting the bickering sisters. "Besides we should be celebrating the fact that Brooke finally found her dream dress!"
"Oh my God I gotta pee! Where's the bathroom?!"she said with a wince.
"Through that hallway and make a right. You can't miss it." The boutique owner replied. "Do you need help with the dress?"
"Yes. I need help getting it off so that I don't ruin it!"
As Brooke rushed away the three left in the room shook their heads. "She makes me glad that I'm not pregnant anymore." Haley said with mirth.
"Thank god it's her and not me!" Rachel chuckled, "I get to be an awesome aunt while she gets the headache of becoming a parent. Plus the stretch marks—" she shuddered.
"It's not that bad." Haley objected, "And stretch marks are a badge of honor. A reminder that we carried a precious being for nine months!"
Rachel's eyebrow hiked as she said, "Isn't the baby a constant reminder? I could do without the body scarring. Thank you!"
Peyton laughed, "I know right."
Haley looked down at her watch and asked, "Okay where's Brooke? She's been in there for a long time now."
"I'll go see what's going on." Peyton said as she rose from where she was sitting.
Peyton walked down the hall and heard sniffling, "Oh my God! I'm so sorry for unloading on you! It's just I'm really emotional and I feel fat and I can't talk to anyone because I complain all the time and I know that they can only deal with so much…" she sobs then says, "I'm just really sorry!"
"It's okay miss. Let it out…I thought you were happy?"
"Oh I am! I'm very happy it's just…this pregnancy has me going through a lot of unexpected things. Most of them are completely disgusting! I'm not used to anything anymore and I fear that I could be driving away every one that I love…"
"I'm sure that's not true—"
Peyton walked in to find Brooke already dressed in her colorful maternity dress and kneeled down beside her and the clerk saying, "It's not even close to true. Sweetie you're pregnant. All of what you're going through is a part of the program. We know this. And even though you can be a crabby bitch…we all love you. And the thing about love is that you have to take the good with the bad. You're a good person Brooke…and your body is going through a lot and everyone understands that. Now come out."
Brooke sniffled then said, "Okay…"

Lucas walked in to find Brooke curled up in bed with her pregnancy pillow that she named Mr. Snickers watching the same movie she had been watching for weeks now, eating pickles and ice cream combined (her favorite thoroughly disgusting treat) and drinking ice cold water. Extra ice chips.
Brooke had been practically obsessed with the movie What To Expect When You're Expecting. Like a ritual she had watched it countless times or was reading the book. Lucas found that she was much more like the Elizabeth Banks character than anyone else in the film. And he was the nervous yet supportive husband. The bigger the babies grew, the crankier she became. At times he had no idea what he would walk into when he came home from practice. If she would welcome him home or would she snap his head off or worse cry at the drop of a dime.
It was exhausting.
But at the end of the day he would face it all and more. "Honey I'm home…how's my lovely wife to be?"
"I'm okay…for now." she said with a shrug.
"Do you need anything?"
Brooke smirked then replied, "Yeah I could really use a foot massage."
"Your wish is my command." he said as he sat at the foot of the bed and took ahold of her swollen feet and began rubbing.
Brooke sighed in bliss as he hit all of the sweet spots, relaxing her completely. Before he knew it, she was fast asleep, snoring softly.
Lucas smiled gently and rose from where he was sitting to tuck her in. He gave her a soft kiss on her warm cheek and left the room to get something to eat. He looked into the fridge and saw most of the things labeled as hers in it. Before the pregnancy they shared everything but now…she would practically snap his neck if he touched her juice.
Sighing he ordered a pizza, one for himself and one for her because he knew she would wake up after awhile and would demand food.
Just as he paid for the pizzas Brooke walked into the room. "Something smells really good."
He smirked and set the box of pizzas on the coffee table, "Don't worry I made sure to order the Hawaiian for you."
"Yay!!! How'd you know what I was craving?" Brooke said with a pleased smile.
"Lucky guess." Lucas then grinned as he sat down on the sofa. The couple had made eating in the living room a tradition considering that she could no longer feel comfortable at the dinner table. Lucas handed her a paper plate with four slices of pizza and said, "So one week left…"
Brooke felt her heart beat with excitement as she said, "Yeah crazy how fast time went by. And yet it's crawling slowly the closer it is."
Lucas looked at her in a way that made her blush at how intimate and intense his eyes were as they focused on her, "I know…are you sure you don't want to elope and do the big wedding stuff at a later date? Like a few months after you give birth to the triplets?"
"You know we can't do that—"
"Who says we couldn't? No one would be the wiser—"
Brooke rolled her eyes and pointed out, "Paparazzi have a way of finding these things out, you know." she then took a healthy bite of her pizza.
"We kept our relationship on the hush hush for a year. We can definitely pull it off."
Brooke sighed then gave him a curious look, "What do you have in mind?"
"Let's get married tonight."

Brooke called Rachel while Lucas called the minister that had counseled them together in preparation of their wedding to be brought to their home for the private ceremony. After he ended the call with the Minister he called his immediate family and told them to come by their house for last minute details for the wedding.
"Okay I'm here! What's the big emergency?" Rachel said as she walked through the door wearing a stunning gold and black one strapped dress and higher than high heels. She had just been on her date with Skills at a club when Brooke called. Skills was somewhere in the house with Lucas.
"Calm down it's not an emergency. I just needed you to come over."
Rachel gave her a sour look then placed her hand on her hip and said, "No see I needed this to be an emergency because Skills and I were about to do something frowned upon in Mystics bathroom!"
"Good thing I called you or else you would be expecting a bundle of joy yourself."
"Maybe you haven't heard of birth control but I have!"
"Whatever. Anyway I need you to curl my hair. And I need help trying on my wedding dress—"
"But we just—"
Brooke looked at her big sister and said, "Please humor me."
Wanting to avoid a fight and also wanting to keep her blood pressure down she readily agreed saying, "Okay anything you need. How do you want your hair curled?"
"Like this…" she showed her a picture of the style she wanted which displayed a long wavy hairstyle.
Rachel plugged in the curlers and asked as she brushed Brooke's long thick tresses, the benefits of pregnancy, longer healthier hair, "Lucas isn't here is he?"
"Why?"
Rachel rolled her eyes then answered, "Because it's bad luck to see the bride in her wedding dress before the wedding duh!"
"It'll be fine. He's with his family downstairs. In fact he just text me saying that he, his parents and Naley are watching the game in the den."
"Okay…don't say I didn't warn you." she sang as she tested the curlers to see if they were hot enough.
Rachel then helped her sister into her dress, fastening it and zipping it up then sighed, she really did look amazing in it. As she was styling her hair Rachel asked, "So what brought this on?"
"I just wanted to be beautiful and I needed to see myself in it one more time before the big day. Only this time in full regalia." she sighed with a serene smile on her face as she painted her lips a deep wine red, she then put pale silver eyeshadow on her eyelids and did a sophisticated cat eye look with the eyeliner.
Thirty minutes after the doorbell rang and Lucas text her to come downstairs. She looked at Rachel who was just finishing up her hair and said, "We have to go downstairs. Lucas said is really important and it can't wait!" she said as she slowly rose to her feet due to all the weight she was carrying.
"But you're still in your wedding dress!"
Brooke waved it off and said, "It'll be fine just come on!"
Rachel helped her sister down the stairs and both sisters was shocked to see candles lit everywhere and red and white flowers to set a romantic atmosphere in the all cream room. Lucas was standing there beside the minister in his tux while everyone else looked a tad underdressed. Besides Rachel and Skills who were looking clueless.
Lucas shrugged then smiled, "It's the best I could do at the moment."
"No it's perfect." Brooke said with a tremulous smile.
"What's going on?" Karen asked, trying to figure out what these kids were up to.
Lucas chuckled and said, "We're getting married Ma."
"I know that but that's next week—"
"No it's not. It's right now."
Brooke made her way to her soon to be husband's side and felt this overwhelming giddiness, she couldn't even stop smiling because her heart felt so full of joy at what they were doing.
"Friends, we have joined here today to share with Lucas Scott and Brooke Davis an important moment in their lives. Their time together, they have seen their love and understanding of each other grow and blossom and now they have decided to live out the rest of their lives as one. The couple will now recite their vows to each other."
"I, Lucas Scott, take you Brooke Davis, for my wedded wife from this day forward, to have and to hold as equal partner in my life, to whom I give my deepest love and devotion. I humbly open my heart to you as a sanctuary of warmth and peace, where you may come and find a refuge of love and strength. I will love you enough to risk being hurt, trust you when I don't understand, weep with you in heartache, and celebrate life with you in joy. I will receive you as my equal throughout all of our days." As he said 'celebrate life with you in joy' his hands automatically found their way to her large baby bump and a smile lit up his face.
"God…ahem…" she said after allowing Lucas to brush her tears of happiness away then let out a little laugh of nerves. "Okay…I, Brooke Davis, take you Lucas Scott, for my wedded husband from this day forward, to have and to hold as equal partner in my life, to whom I give my deepest love and devotion. I humbly open my heart to you as a sanctuary of warmth and peace, where you may come and find a refuge of love and strength. I will love you enough to risk being hurt, trust you when I don't understand, weep with you in heartache, and celebrate life with you in joy. I will receive you as my equal throughout all of our days."
"Now the exchanging of rings…"
Nathan who had acted as best man in this surprise ceremony gave the rings to Lucas. Brooke took his ring and slid it on his finger, and felt butterflies as well as the babies move around in her belly as she recited, "I Brooke give you Lucas this ring as an eternal symbol of my love and commitment to you."
Lucas gulped as his nerves kicked in, but he slid the ring on her finger and looked into her misty hazel green eyes and recited, "I Lucas give you Brooke this ring as an eternal symbol of my love and commitment to you."
"By the power vested in me by the State of Georgia, I now pronounce you husband and wife. You may now kiss the bride."
Lucas took her in his arms and kissed her tenderly. Brooke melted into their first kiss as a newly married couple.
When they finally parted they heard the minister say, "I present to you Mr. and Mrs. Scott."
Rachel was the loudest to cheer them on, only second to Karen who was crying with pride. Everyone congratulated them, giving them hugs and warm smiles, including Dan who enveloped his new daughter-in-law in his massive arms and said, "Welcome to the family Brooke."
Karen and Rachel took a lot of pictures of the couple, some with the guests and others with only the newlyweds, gazing into each other's eyes. The minister hadn't minded taking a group photo.
After everyone left Brooke and Lucas were still basking in their happiness, dancing to the music on his iHome.
All I am, All I'll be
Everything in this world
All that I'll ever need
Is in your eyes
Shining at me
When you smile I can feel
All my passion unfolding
Your hand brushes mine
And a thousand sensations
Seduce me cause I
I do Cherish you
For the rest of my life
You don't have to think twice
I will love you still
From the depths of my soul
It's beyond my control
I've waited so long to say this to you
If you're asking do I love you this much
I do
In my world, before you
I lived outside my emotions
Didn't know where I was going
'Til that day I found you
How you opened my life
To a new paradise
In a world torn by change
Still with all of my heart
'Til my dying day
I do Cherish you
For the rest of my life
You don't have to think twice
I will love you still
From the depths of my soul
It's beyond my control
I've waited so long to say this to you
If you're asking do I love you this much
I do
If you're asking do I love you this much
I do
Oh, I do
"You're stuck with me now!" Brooke said with a laugh as he held her as close as her belly would allow.
"I wouldn't have it any other way. And I think you have that turned around. And besides…It's you that's stuck with me."
Brooke sighed then said with faux consideration, "Hmm…If I tell you I love you, can I keep you forever? Oh wait, that's a given considering we just tied the knot, isn't it?"
"That's right Mrs. Scott."
"Ooh talk dirty to me!" she purred sexily.
Lucas exhaled, "Too bad we can't enjoy our wedding night."
Brooke cocked a brow at him and asked, "Who said?"
"The doctor said."
"Just because I can't have any stimulation doesn't mean you can't." she said as she pulled him towards the sitting area and sat down on the sofa. Lucas was about to sit but she immediately began unbuckling his black genuine leather belt.
Before Lucas could say a word she already had him inside her mouth, taking all of his softened member in. It wasn't long before his cock hardened and he was gripping her soft curls in his fist as she bobbed up and down his shaft, licking him greedily, eager to please him.
"Sweet Jesus Brooke!" Lucas swore as his hips had a mind of their own, moving along with her head movements. It had been a long two weeks since the doctor told them to refrain from sex and it had been difficult considering that he constantly desired his wife…Wife…he needed to get used to thinking it much less saying it.
He groaned his ecstasy and thrust inside her mouth. She met his thrust, every thrust her made inside her mouth she lubricated it so that he would be able to move as freely as he needed and sucked him harder, drawing him deeper in her mouth again and again. Hearing the sounds of his pleasure pleased her so she quickened the pace and sucked a little harder, the result of her effort pleasing to her ears.
"Fuck!!! Brooke…" he growled as he helplessly came inside her mouth.
Brooke swallowed his essence down and licked the remains from his softening dick until not a trace was left. "Thanks…I needed that. But now you owe me one. I'm thinking a pint of truffle chocolate ice cream." she said as she laid back on the couch.
"God I love you Brooke."
"You love me so much you'll put a ring on it—Oh wait you did that already!" she said with a giddy laugh.
Lucas untied his tie and said with a smug grin, "I sure did."
"Easy Tiger. Remember I just made you blow like a geyser."
Lucas chuckled and settled down beside her reclined form, becoming the big spoon to her small one. He kissed her ear then settled his hand on the bump. "That you did wife. Are you sure that you should've…you know?"
"Lucas I looked it up and yes it perfectly fine to swallow. Some experts said that a little semen from the father would have relieved the morning sickness. God I wished I knew that while I was going through that because I would've given you a blowjob every chance I got."
Lucas was stunned by that and said, "I wish you knew then too."
Brooke giggled and snuggled further into his embrace as she said, "Of course you do…"
