The first two weeks living together was hell. Karen was ready to pull her hair out because of all the arguing, Lucas wanted to scream on the top of his lungs if he had to pick up anymore of Brooke's clothes, but Brooke was having the time of her life. If she just ignore Lucas and did whatever she wanted, that would just drive Lucas crazy and she was happy. But that was until Karen threatened to make them work at Tric and the café together all the time until they got along. So Brooke and Lucas called a truce and tried to go back to how they use to be. Which scared both of them because the real reason they kept this up was because they knew that since they were living together they could fall back into that place where both of them could get hurt again……. They could fall back in love.
Brooke was lying on the couch watching TV, enjoying the fact that she could get to watch something other than ESPN, and then she heard the front door open.
"Hey" she said when Lucas walked in
"Hi." He said and leaned against the doorway looking very tired
"Wow… you look like … crap." She said
"gee thanks…. I've had a really long day. And I feel like I'm about to fall over." He said sitting next to her on the couch.
"sorry….. well I hope not all that hungry, cause your mom called and she is going out with Andy tonight and won't be back for a while so we have to fend for ourselves, so I was thinking of ordering a pizza later. What do you think?" She said
"Yeah that's fine, I'll be back in a sec. I'm going to go take a quick shower." He said ad got up and left to the room. 20 minutes later he came back in wearing a white shirt and basketball shorts, and sat back down next to Brooke.
"Good shower?" she said
"yeah, almost forgot what it was like to have hot water." He said smirking
"you know if you would just wake up early and shower, you would have some hot water." She said
"if you would just not take 30 minute showers , I would have hot water." He said
"Look Sir Broods-A-lot…. I have a lot of stuff to do in there. I have to wash my hair, bathe, shave and moisturize. It takes time." She explained
"Whatever…. So what are we watching?" he asked yawning
"Real World. And no we are not changing." She said
"No it's ok. I think I'm about to fall asleep any second now." He said leaning his back and closing his eyes. Then he opened them and looked over at Brooke.
"Brrrookkee?" He said
"yeah." She said
"will you rub my back so I can sleep?" he asked pouting
"Luke." She whined
"please…. I'll be your best friend." He said
"you already ARE my best friend." She said
"yeah but I'll actually start acknowledging it in public…….please…." He said batting his eyes
"Damn you and those blues eyes…… Alright …Fine! Come here." She said and laid completely on her back and he laid on top of her and rested his head on her chest right above her breast. Brooke put one hand under his shirt and stroked his back while running her fingers through his hair.
"you drool on me, and I'll kill you." She said
"yeah…yeah.. yeah.." he mumbled into her chest. Brooke went back to her show. After an hour or so she heard her bedroom door open then heard Peyton calling her name.
"In the living room." she said as loudly as I could without waking up Lucas.
"Shhh…. He's sleeping." She said whispering.
"Hey….. What's this all about?" Peyton said pointing between Brooke and Lucas sitting on the coffee table in front of them.
"Lucas thinks my breasts are the greatest pillows in the worlds." Brooke said
"Rrriiiggghhtt. Anyway, so …. Sorry I haven't called or anything. This whole Jake thing is …. Well…. it sucks." She said trying not to cry
"I know sorry P. Sawyer. So how does it look for Jake getting out?" she said
"Well his lawyers are doing everything they can. But it doesn't look to good. Basically Nikki has won and I know there's no way he's giving up Jenny so I'm guessing he's going to be in there for awhile." She said with tears in her eyes.
"Aww… Peyt. I would give you a hug….. but I got this stupid lug on me." She said with a laugh
"Anyway…. enough with my drama, what's going on with you two? I mean one minute you are ready to kill each other and the next you two are buddy-buddy again." She said
"well Karen threatened us with manual labor if we didn't get along. And you I don't do working. So we called a truce, now everything's good." She said
"really ….. just friends? No hidden feelings creeping up?" she said
"well….. I mean there are times when I would turn and see him staring at me and I'd see him…… I'd see my Broody. And it's like these past few months hadn't happen. Then he blinks and it's gone. It's the way it has to be I guess. Being together hurts too much right now. We keep hurting each other." She said while she started to stroke his hair
"But Brooke there's no more secrets, no more anything. You guys can try for real this time and get it right." She said
"Peyton I know. You don't think I have thought of that. But there's much other stuff now. Like the fact that I'm only here till the summer. I don't know if I'm coming back next year. Plus I don't know how he feels. I hurt him so bad Peyt. I have never seen so much hurt than I did that night. I'm just so grateful that he still wanted to be friends. Cause not having him in my life at all was torcher and I just couldn't do it. Right now we're exactly where we need to be. Because I really feel if we ever get back together then that will be it and I think if we rush it then we will end hurting each other and never get back what we had." She said whispering
"wow. So you really think Luke could be it for you? I mean Brooke you're so young. You haven't even seen what college has to offer." She said
"Peyt…. I know it's weird and you're right…… I don't know. But the thing is…… I really don't want anyone else to kiss me or hold me or sleep with……. or even fight with. Cause… nobody will be Luke. He's my baby." She said whispering the last part and looking down at Lucas still stroking his shaved head.
"ok way to mushy for me. So……you're not going to date anyone else? Cause that's just not the Brooke I know." She said with a laugh.
"well no, I'd date someone. I don't expect us to wait for each other till it's right again. But I know it won't be the same and will always be wishing it was Luke." She said
"but there's still one question……. Does Luke feel the same way?" she asked
"Honestly Peyton….. I really don't know anymore. I mean I use to. But every since that night in the rain….. he doesn't look at me the same anymore. And that's what scars the hell out of me." She said
"you should talk to him about it, see how he feels." She said
"well I would but…." Brooke started to say but was interrupted by Lucas waking up. He started rubbing his nose along Brooke's breast.
"Hey perv boy, stop with the feel-edge" she said feeling what he was doing.
" shh…. I was just having the best dream about me being between Mary-Kate and Ashley, and really in enjoying myself." He said still with his eyes closed.
"Eww…Luke, they're not even hold enough to drive yet." She said
"no, he's talking about my breast. He named them awhile back when we we're dating." Brooke said
"oh that's even worst. Ok I'm going to go before I find out what other names Luke's has for your other body parts." Peyton said standing up to leave
"ok call me tomorrow." She said
"Will do. See ya guys." She said leaving.
"you sleep good." She asked looking down at him
"yeah thanks, it was great. I always sleep good next to you." He said
"so you want to order the pizza?" she asked
"not yet…. I just want you to hold me for a little while." He said
"ok." She said not sure why he was suddenly acting this way
"I can remember so many nights when you rubbed my head and my back so that I would fall asleep. It was just so good to be in your arms." He said after awhile in silence
"yeah I know how you feel." She said
"I've missed it." He said moving up to face her
"Me too." She whispered and noticed how close their lips were to each other. All she had to do was lean forward and they would be touching
"God … you're beautiful." He said stroking her face. And Brooke began to close her eyes thinking that he was about to kiss her. He leaned forward and gave her a kiss on her nose and quickly got up.
"Ok…. Now I'm starving." He said walking to the kitchen to order the pizza. Brooke just sighed and threw her head back, wondering what the hell just happened. It had happened again. See looked into his eyes and saw her Broody, the one that loved her more than anything in this world. She really thought he was going to kiss her. But he blinked and it was gone. It was like that moment never happened. She was really wondering if he just didn't love her anymore and was just happy that they were friends.
The next day Karen was in the standing in front of the both of them telling the rules of this weekend since she and Andy were going out of town.
"….. and Last but not least no and I absolutely mean no parties." Karen said and stared at Brooke at that last part.
"ok why do have to look at me when you say that? "Brooke said
"Are you really going to make her answer that." Lucas said
"oh and there's money in the cookie jar if you guys need. And all the numbers are on the fridge." She said
"Mom, stop worrying we're grown up. We can take care of ourselves." He said, then the heard a outside
"Ok I got to go. You two behave and take care of each other." She while hugging both of them
"Bye mom," he said
"Bye Karen. Have fun, don't do anything I won't do." She yelled as Karen walked out.
"Well you're not leaving her with much not to do." He said
"Shut up." She said and pushed him
"Ok I'm going to the rivercourt. You want to come?" he asked while getting his basketball and I-pod.
"Nah, I think I'm going to hang here and catch up on some reading." She said
"oh, what book are you reading." He asked really curious
"Cosmo!" She said and he just laughed
"Ok …..well you have fun with that. I'll be back later." He said and kissed her forehead and left. Brooke went into her room and plopped on the bed and started reading her magazine. After awhile she heard the door open. She just assumed it was Lucas and went back to reading.
"you know I've always dreamt about this room, but with Lucas in it as well." The person at the door said
"Bevin! Hi." Brooke said excitedly
"hey whatcha doing?" Bevin said walking over to sit on the bed
"Reading the bible." She said holding up the Cosmo.
"Nice. Anyway I came to tell you there is as 'can't miss party' tonight and you have to be there." She said
"Oh I don't know Bev. I was just going to stay in and hang with Lucas tonight." She said
"well bring him. Look the Brooke the cheerleaders have been talking that you haven't been fulfilling your role as captain ever since you won the election." She said
"Bev. I'm still your captain." She said
"Well good. The party is at Teresa's house and it starts at 9. so I'll see you there at 11. oh and look hott." Bevin said getting up to leave
"Bevin, seriously…. Not a problem for me." She said
"see there's the captain I know and love. See ya" She said and then left. Then Brooke quickly got up to find something to wear. Brooke had already showered and was doing her hair by the time Lucas came home.
"Brooke." He called when walked in
"In the bathroom. Come on in." She yelled. Lucas walked down the hall to the bathroom and opened the door. And there stood Brooke in pair of matching pink lacy bra and panties while curling her hair.
"umm… going somewhere." He said trying not to stare at her
"yeah… we both are." She said
"excuse me" he said
"yes we're both going. There's a 'can't miss party' at Teresa's tonight and in which you were also invited to." She said
"ok but mom said no parties, remember." He said
"well I just felt that she implied that as US not throwing a party here, not so much us going to one. So stop arguing with me about not going cause you know I'm just going to win in the end and put down your stuff and get in the shower." She said finishing her hair
"fine" he said and made is way to his room
"oh and I picked out your clothes for you to wear. They're on your bed." She yelled to him
"gee thanks mom." He said sarcastically and rolling his eyes
It was about 11:15 by the time they got there. And the party was in full swing. All the cheerleaders rushed to Brooke once she walked through door. Lucas saw some of his teammates went to talked to them. After awhile Lucas went in search of Brooke. He found her in the living room dancing and notice a guy behind her dancing with her. The guy's hands were all over her. He didn't like it at all. He was getting really pissed off and couldn't watch anymore, so he went and got himself a drink. He was in the kitchen drinking, leaning back on the counter when Brooke walked in
"hey I've been looking all over for you." She said walking over to him and putting her hands on his waist.
"oh really was that before or after you had that jerk's hands all over you." He said quite pissed
"oh Ben…..old friend of mine." She said
"yeah … well I didn't like it." He said
" come on Luke… it was just a dance." She said worried that he was really upset with her
"I didn't like it." He said again.
"ok… I'm sorry. Come on let's go do some shots and then we'll dance and you can be the guy with his hands all over me." She said seductively
"ok." He said and let her drag him to the liquor table. After a lot of shots Brooke and Lucas were really drunk. Brooke then got the sudden urge to dance so she dragged Lucas to the dance floor. she wrapped her arms around him and started to dance with him. At first it seemed like a very friendly dance but then a new song came on, "Sweat" by David Banner, the dirty version. And that trigger something in Brooke's head that made her want to pleasure Lucas as much as possible. So she slowly started to grind against Lucas and running her hands up and down his chest. When she could tell he was enjoying this, she turned around and started grinding her ass matching the beat to the song. Lucas moved his hands to her waist and moved closer to her and buried his face in her neck. Smelling her perfume. He would move his hand up her stomach and tried with all his might not to grab her breast. By the end of the song Lucas had a huge erection and was very horny. And Brooke knew it too
"you ready to go home?" he whispered into her ear and she just nodded and grabbed his hand and led him on the door. They decided to walk since it wasn't that for away. Lucas tried to give her piggy back ride was they both were laughing too hard for her to stay on. They walked in to Brooke's room and still trying to hold Brooke up but Lucas tripped and they both landed on the bed. Brooke was on top of Lucas and Lucas was faced down. They both were still laughing and Lucas some how turned around so now he was facing Brooke and her straddling him. They started to stare at each other and their laughing started to die down.
"so what do you want to do now?" She asked
"I don't know…… anything." He said caressing her hips. Then she pulled on his shirt to pull him up and was inched away from his face.
"What are you doing?" he said laughing a little
"anything." She whispered then placed a light kiss on his lips
"you kissed me." He said smiling
"Yeah." She said
"But we're friends remember. Friends don't kiss." He said
"well maybe I don't want to be your friend anymore." She said and kissed him again
"maybe not being friends is a good thing." He said and kissed her, this time a lot longer and a lot harder.
"I want you Luke." She said in between kisses.
"Me too baby." He said took off his shirt and pulled hers off as well. He moved his hands down her chest and caressed her breast and listen to her moan. He lied back down and brought Brooke with him. She broke the kiss and kissed down his chest, all the way to his pants then started to unbuckle it and pulled his pants. Lucas sat up and did the same thing to Brooke. He pulled Brooke to him and started to kiss her again. He laid her down so now he was on top of her. Still kissing her he reached under her and undid her bra and took it off, then started to suck on each breast. Brooke pulled Lucas back to her and ran her hands down his back to his boxers and started to pull them off. Lucas got up and took them off completely and moved back on Brooke and kissed her hard again. Lucas was grinding hard on top Brooke and it was driving her crazy.
"you sure?" he asked panting and still grinding on top of her
"yes….. I need you. I need you inside me." She said and Lucas started to kiss her and moved his hands down her body and pulled off her panties. He quickly entered her and found a fast rhythm with her. This was not about making love, this was about months of pent up sexual frustration and only the other person could make it better. They went at in every square inch of that room and in every position. After hours of pleasure they both collapsed on the bed.
"I'm really liking not being your friend." She said panting. Lucas just laughed and rolled back on top of Brooke and kissed. But in the back of the heads was the thought that this was opening a can worms they were not ready face and knew one or both of them was going to regret this in the mourning.
