A/N: Thank you for the reviews! You guys rock. This is longer than usual, but not as long as the last. Hard to find time during the week (Monday here) But it's not a cliff hanger lol
I'm so glad you were okay with last chapter, I just HAD to have Jay punch Lucas. I personally also think Jesse is way hotter than Chad but that's neither here nor there.
Fate – Part Fourteen
Brooke POV
I stare at myself in the bathroom mirror, replaying the events of the night.
Cold water is running as I lean down to splash my face, when I stand back up I see Jay behind me.
"Babe, I'm so sorry." I dab at my face with the towel before dropping it.
Our eyes are connected through the mirror and I can see Jay's torturing himself.
Shock flashes across his face when I turn and kiss him, my arms going around his neck.
"That was so hot." I look up at him with hazel eyes, coaxing his lips down on mine again.
"You're not mad?" He pulls away to ask, searching my eyes for the truth.
"Why would I be mad at you? You stood up for me… besides, it was a long time coming." I pull his forehead down to rest against mine.
"Good. It felt satisfying."
"I guess you got your punch after all." Our noses are touching, our lips a whisper away from joining.
One of his hands slides up my back to grip the back of my neck through my hair, with his other resting on my lower back.
I press my lips against his urgently, his tongue wasting no time slipping in my mouth.
A moan slips through my lips as he pulls me closer, our bodies impossibly close.
I run my fingers through his hair as I throw my head back, allowing him to trail kisses down my neck. He helps me take his shirt off, my hands run along his bare back before sliding around his neck again.
He hooks his hands under my thighs and I jump up, wrapping my legs around his waist.
Our lips meet again as he pushes me against the wall, his hands slide further up my thighs and below my dress.
He caresses the curve of my ass as I grind down on him, my hands coming around to rest against his chest.
I'm wet with want when he lets my heels drop onto the tiles; he strokes me through my panties before slowly pulling these down.
I step out of these and kick them away; Jay stands back up to trap my body against the wall.
His lips find mine as he runs a finger along my wet opening, I gasp as he slips two fingers in and begins pumping them in and out.
I'm squirming, desperate for more friction when he deliberately slows his movements down building the passion within me.
His fingers find my clit briefly before he pulls his fingers away, only for his body to drop down.
I swallow in anticipation when he hooks a leg over his shoulder, his blue eyes staring up at me.
My eyes squeeze shut when his warm tongue drags along my sensitive pussy.
His lips seek out my clit immediately and suck, driving me closer to release.
I'm panting when his scruff tickles me, before his fingers push back in sending me flying over the edge.
He doesn't stop his movements until I'm gasping for air, eyes finally open and watching Jay lick his lips.
As soon as he's standing again, my fingers grab his shorts and pull them down letting his manhood spring free.
I jump into his arms again, my bare pussy against his stomach as he kisses me fiercely.
His tongue slips into my mouth and I moan tasting myself on him.
He positions his penis at my aching entrance; his hands are gripping my thighs as mine caress him behind his ears.
I sigh when he pushes in, stilling when he can't go any further.
His eyes open and his lips pull away from mine, before placing a kiss on the corner of my mouth.
"I love you." The intensity in his eyes is hard to doubt and I bite my lip.
"I love you too." Our foreheads are touching as he rocks against me.
My heels dig into his ass, willing him to thrust deeper.
His lips find mine again as he picks up the speed of his thrusts, forcing me harder against the wall each time.
My hands slide down to his shoulders as he trails kisses down my neck, his thrusts deep.
I dig my nails into his skin when I feel the pressure building; his thrusts are controlled as he hits the spot.
I'm calling out his name as he explodes inside me; we're both breathing heavily as we stand there staring into each other eyes.
I smile at him before pressing my lips against his again, moaning as we pull away.
Jay passes me my panties and I catch his right hand in mine, frowning at the bruised knuckle.
"You should see the other guy." He smirks at me, pleased with himself but clearly deflecting my worry.
"Why don't you take a shower? I'll grab some ice." I place a kiss on his knuckles before slipping my panties on and leaving him in the bathroom.
I walk out into the living area to see Lucas sulking at the dining table with ice on his bloodied nose.
"I hope you're happy. I think it's broken." He lashes out as I walk by, rolling my eyes.
"I'm really happy actually, thanks for checking." I open the freezer to grab some ice, and a tea towel from one of the drawers before making my way back to the bedroom.
"You always could have sex anywhere, anytime." I stop walking at those words, spinning around to narrow my eyes.
"Yeah, but at least now it's with a man who can actually get me off." I smirk, enjoying the sting of my words reflecting on his face.
"But then again, he's also…" I hold up my hands to indicate size, watching Haley from the corner of my eye struggle to keep her cool, covering her smile behind her hands.
I turn and waltz into the bedroom to see Jay walking out of the bathroom; he comes over to me and caresses my cheek.
"I got you some ice." I push him gently back onto the bed and place the ice over his hand.
"Are you okay baby?" His blue eyes are concerned.
"Yeah." I shrug gently, avoiding his eyes.
"You don't have to pretend with me. I'm sorry; I was an idiot." He shakes his head, frustration at himself written all over his face.
"Why? I'm not upset you punched him." I look into his eyes, begging him to believe me.
"I know, but I shouldn't have made love to you straight after that. It was insensitive… I took advantage of you." I move to straddle him on the bed, bringing his injured hand between us to ensure the ice stays on.
"You know what I love about you?" Tears are filling my eyes, lips quivering.
"What?" He pushes some hair behind my ear.
"You say make love, not sex. I know you respect me Jay, you didn't take advantage of me. I promise."
"Still, having someone say that about you must hurt. Especially when it's someone you had a relationship with, someone you thought you loved. I wanted to do a lot more than punch him." Jay looks like he's beating himself up, I lean my forehead against his.
"Yeah, it hurt." I admit quietly, not wishing to cry.
"Oh Brooke." He drops the ice from his hand so he can bring my head into his neck, the tears finally falling.
"Why does everyone keep hurting me?" I cringe at how broken my voice sounds, noting how Jay holds me tighter.
"I want to protect you from it." He whispers into my hair, while my tears soak his neck.
"You did." Jay lays back on the bed, taking me with him. I'm laying on his chest as he strokes my hair.
"I'm sorry you keep getting hurt, I wish I could take all your pain away. Just know; I will never hurt you. I'll always have your back and you can come to me about anything. But please believe me when I say, you do not deserve to be treated this way. Ever." I nod into his neck; he places a kiss on my forehead.
"I love you." He whispers it to me as he continues to hold me while I let out all my hurt.
Brooke POV
"Morning." I mumble as Jay and I enter the kitchen to see Nathan and Haley talking.
"Hey, sleep well?" Haley asks, passing Nathan food to take over to the table.
Jay steps forward to help as she smiles at him with gratitude.
"Fantastic."
"Oh I bet." She smirks at me.
"So, is he really…" She holds her hands up and I giggle loudly before reaching over to adjust the length.
"No." She whispers, shock in her eyes.
"Yes." I raise my eyebrows.
"Brooke Davis. You are one lucky girl."
"Don't I know it." We collect the rest of the food before joining the boys at the table.
"So, Lucas' nose is broken. Two black eyes." Nathan starts off; Jay sends me a side-glance.
"Sorry man." He shrugs and we all look at him.
"Well, I'm not. But if Jamie has to see it then I'm sorry." He shrugs, minimal regret on his face.
"It's fine, we'll say he got it roughhousing with basketball. He had it coming." Haley shrugs it off.
"Where is Jamie anyway?" I ask loading food on my plate.
"Getting dressed. He wants to spend the day with just his Aunt Brooke." Haley laughs sending Jay a look.
"Aww. What will you guys do?" I look around curious.
"I have papers to grade." Haley shrugs at me.
"I'm gonna school Jay on the basketball court." Nathan laughs, a challenging stare directed at my boyfriend.
"Bring it. But it's only fair we then compete in something I'm a pro in."
"Sex?" I spit my coffee out at Haley and she smirks at us all.
"So I hear anyway… Sorry, sorry. Just slipped out. Carry on." Nathan and Jay continue to look at us before shrugging it off, Jay wearing a smirk.
"Firing range." He nods over at Nathan.
"Oh it's so on."
"Hey little buddy, just you and me today." Jamie is finishing with his shoes as I lean against the doorframe.
"What do you want to do?" I ask when he looks up smiling.
"Can we go to the beach?"
"Sure, you didn't get enough water yesterday?" He shakes his head at me.
"Alright, get your swimmers. I'll get changed and pack a bag."
"I can carry that." Jamie holds his hands out for the bag as I unpack the car, I laugh as I pass it down to him.
"Alright, let's find a spot." We trudge down the beach until Jamie decides on the perfect spot and we set up.
"Can we swim?" I laugh as I dig through my bag.
"First let me put sunscreen on you."
After a few hours of sand and sun, Jamie's burying me in the sand deciding a sand castle was boring.
"Are you almost done? This sand is getting in all the wrong places." I whine up at him.
"Depends."
"On what?" I narrow my eyes at his cheeky smile.
"Can we have ice cream next?"
"Ohhh, you're good. Fine. Just get me out of here." Once out Jamie lets me rinse the sand off before taking him for his bribery.
"Will you and Uncle Jay move here?" His hand is in mine as we walk along the sand.
"Don't think so buddy." My voice is gentle as I break it to him.
"Oh. Why?"
"I love it here, it's home but Chicago is his home Jamie. I can run my company from anywhere; it was my dream for a long time. Now? It's still part of it. But the biggest part is being with Jay and hopefully having a family. You know why?"
"Why?"
"Because you showed me how great kids are little buddy." He nods for a few moments while thinking.
"If you had kids here, I could babysit."
"I'd love that… but Jay's a city cop Jamie and that's his dream. I want him to be happy. But I promise to visit you all the time."
"I guess Chicago will be cool." He shrugs.
"I'll tell you what, how about two scoops? But don't tell your mum."
"You say that a lot." I giggle at him.
"It's because what happens between a godmother and godson is privileged." I wink at him.
Brooke POV
I fall back onto the bed exhausted from the beach, looking to my left confused when I realize I fell on something.
I turn over and pick up the envelope, on the front is just my name.
Slowly I sit up and pull the card out, smiling at what's inside.
Hey Beautiful, put this on.
Pick you up at 7. - Jay
I notice the dress bag on the bed and stand up to pull the zipper down, inside is a floor length purple dress with a long slit up the side.
"Time to get you ready." My head snaps over to Haley in the doorway, confusion on my face.
"What's all this?" I hold the note up confused.
"A surprise."
"Come on, tell me." I pout at her but she just shakes her head.
"Get your cute little butt in the shower Davis." She ushers me into the bathroom to shower and wash my hair.
I pull my robe tighter around me as Haley does my hair, my makeup already taken care of.
"I did what you said mama. Kept Aunt Brooke busy all day." Jamie smiles triumphantly up at us.
"You were in on this?" I gasp down at him and he nods with a grin.
"You little rascal." I pull him onto my lap, as Haley finishes the half up and down hairstyle leaving some curls to frame my face.
"Time for the dress." She claps her hands excitedly.
Haley ushers me out the front door, I gasp when I see Jay in a suit standing in front of a limo.
I walk towards him, his eyes taking in my appearance with a smile.
"You look beautiful Brooke." He places a kiss on my forehead, my eyes gloss with tears of happiness.
"Aw, so cute." Haley squeals at Nathan and he chuckles.
"For you." Jay holds out a corsage and slides it on my wrist.
"What's going on?" My voice is a quiet whisper, not quite believing all of this.
"It's a surprise."
"So everyone keeps saying."
"You'll love it, I promise." He places a gentle kiss on my lips before letting me slide into the limo.
Once we're on our way, he hands me a glass of champagne.
I lean into his side as I sip the champagne, watching the streets go by.
"I have no idea what you're up to Jay Halstead, but somehow you got Haley and Jamie involved." He chuckles before leaning down to kiss me, slow and long.
"You need to put this on." He holds up a blindfold and I bite my lip before nodding.
All I see is darkness for the next few minutes until the car stops, I reach up to pull it off when Jay stops me.
"Not yet."
"What if I trip?"
"Do you trust me?" He whispers against my face.
"Yes." Butterflies are swirling in my stomach, my body buzzing in excitement and not just from the alcohol.
"Then believe me when I say, I've got you."
I can hear the limo door open and Jay takes my hand guiding me to the edge of the street.
"I better not be flashing anyone." I grumble as my feet his the ground.
"Only me." He chuckles as he pulls me to my feet, his lips instantly finding mine allowing me to sigh into the kiss.
He wraps an arm around me and his other hand finds mine, he steadies me to guide me along.
I hear doors open and he walks me through them, his warm body is behind me with his fingers on the blindfold.
Anticipation swirls in my stomach as the blindfold is removed, a gasp slips through my lips and tears fill my eyes as I take in the high school gym.
The gym is done up with lights, tables and chairs and a DJ stand. I bite my lip when my eyes fall on the banner that reads 'Prom'.
"Oh my god." I whisper as I take in everyone all dressed up, Haley, Nathan, Skills, Mouth, Lauren and the guys.
"Everyone deserves a prom to remember Brooke Davis, you more than most." I turn to face Jay, completely overwhelmed.
"I can't believe… oh god. You did all of this?"
"I had some help." He caresses my cheek before I lean up to kiss him.
"Thank you." I whisper quietly, still in shock.
"Let's party! Mouth hit it." Haley calls out as she comes over to hug me.
"You were all in on this." I turn to her accusingly.
"Yep." She giggles exchanging a look with Jay.
Flashback – Jay POV
"Hey Haley."
"Hey, Jay. What's up?" She looks up from the papers in front of her on the couch and motions for me to take a seat.
"I'm sorry about the fight tonight, I just lost it."
"It's okay. Fights are regular occurrence here in Tree Hill. Besides you were defending Brooke. How is she?" Her eyes are soft and kind.
"Finally asleep. He really hurt her tonight." My hands are balled in tight fists thinking of his words.
"Do you want some more ice?" She motions down to my hand.
"Nah, I've had worse."
"Sounds it."
"I need a favor."
"I don't know if I've known you long enough to owe you one." Haley winks at me jokingly.
"It's for Brooke."
"What is it?" She's instantly serious.
"It bothers me Brooke never got her Prom, I want to recreate it for her."
"Oh my god. Why are you so perfect? Please tell me you have some kind of fault." She giggles, shaking her head at me.
"I have plenty, trust me."
"Of course I'll help… Jay, you're good for Brooke but I swear to god if you hurt her I'll end you. You got that?" Haley's tone is serious, her threat clear as day.
"I'd expect nothing less, if I hurt Brooke I'd deserve that. But I'm not going to."
Brooke POV
"Unbelievable. So sneaky."
"I do work undercover." Jay winks at me and I lean back into him.
"I still want to kick your ass on the course." Nathan punches Jay playfully in the shoulder.
"I still want to kick yours at the firing range."
"Come on Brooke, let's dance." Haley pulls me over onto the dance floor.
