xoxo, Mary.
Things were definately hectic, in a good sense. Two weeks already went by and it felt more like two days to Brooke. All she did, day and night, was wedding plans. Her Peyton would get together every morning and plan plan plan for this wedding. Of course, whenever Peyton and Brooke wanted Lucas and Nathan to help, the boys would always flee to the river court with Bennett. Brooke couldn't blame them, and at least it got her off mommy duty for awhile. They had already booked the chapel in Charolette for the wedding and puple tulips with white carnations for the flowers. And now she needed to send out her invitations.
Peyton came around the corner with Lucas in hand and walked into Karen's cafe. They went to the big booth in the back and sat down, waiting. Ten minutes later Brooke came barging in the cafe with Bennett on her hip and Nathan right behind her. "Hey guys, over here!" Peyton called over to her bestfriend.
Brooke smiled, her and Nathan sat down in the booth across from the two. "So did you know we were gonna get stuck coming here today?" Nathan asked his brother.
Lucas smirked, "Nope, and you?"
Nathan smirked at Brooke and then back at his brother, "Not a clue. Funny how our girls did that."
Brooke rolled her eyes, "Oh stop, all we need your help with is picking out our guests."
Bennett was starting to stand up and lean over the table, "Momma I'm hunnn-gryy."
"Me too mommy." Nathan looked over at Brooke and pouted his lip.
Brooke sighed, "Thats what you get for sleeping in, you missed breakfast." She reached in her purse and grabbed a fruit snack. "Here benny-bear eat your fruit snacks."
Nathan rest his cheek on his fist, "Hmmph." His eyes turned to see his son, "Hey can i have one of your fruit snacks."
Bennett looked up at his daddy and put one in his mouth, "Nope."
"You know i payed for those fruit snacks right?" Nathan laughed.
The little three year old smiled up at him, "No mommy gave this to me."
The four bestfriends laughed together, Nathan rubbed Bennett's head. For the next hour they went through all of Brooke's address book, picking out the people they wanted at their wedding. Booke invited a few of her cousins and dad, along with some good friends. Nathan just sat there and nodded when Brooke suggested a certain person. Lucas got a few texts saying when they should bounce, and after a few more girl chats between the girls, the guys found there way out. "Hey babe, mind if me and Luke get you and Peyton some food?" Nathan asked Brooke, one hand on her shoulder.
She knew exactly what the guys were doing, "Sure hon, just get us a couple of cesar salads and then you guys can go."
Nathan looked up at Luke grinned, then reached over and gave Brooke a kiss on the cheek. "Thanks babe. Come on luke." The two good looking guys walked over to the counter where Karen was working.
Peyton just laughed, "Those to would rather be taking tests right now then planning your wedding."
"Yeah i know, but i guess we'll beable to make the wedding how I want it." Brooke smirked back, then looked at her son who had his arms crossed and was pouting. "Baby whats the matter, are you okay?"
Bennett sighed over-dramatically, "I'm hungry!"
"Okay i'll have daddy get you some nuggets." She smiled down at her son and rubbed his back. "Hey Nate? Will you get Bennett some nuggets, please?" Brooke yelled up to the front of the cafe.
"Ya sure babe." He called over to their table and then ordered the food. Twenty minutes later the four friends and Bennett were eating and talking about last little things about the wedding. Bennett still didn't quite get what a wedding was but he always had a lit-up smile on his cute little face. Nathan and Lucas went to the rivercourt with Bennett after breakfast leaving there girls with all the work.
Brooke was taking alittle rest on their white sofa when the front door opened and Nathan walked in with Bennett. He ran up to the couch and climbed ontop of her. "Momma! Me and daddy are home now." Her hazel eyes took a few seconds to flutter open and she looked up at her boys. "Well there you guys are. How was basketball?"
"So fun mommy! Daddy said i'm really good. Isn't that gweat." Bennett asked with a smile from dimple to dimple. He was so happy.
She sat up on the white sofa and made room for her fiance to sit down next to her. "That's fantastic, Bennett! Momma is so proud. Why don't you go up stairs and i'll get you ready for dinner. Does that sound good, huh?"
"Alllllwite, i'll see you soon." He smiled and ran to the stairs, leaving his mommy and daddy to themselves.
"You okay, Brooke? You look alittle pale. Do you want me to cook dinner?" Nathan asked her sweetly, rubbing her arm under a soft blanket.
Brooke didn't want to tell Nathan that she hasn't felt well for the past week. "No i'm fine to make dinner. Better yet, why don't we do it together? Sound good."
"Sure does." Nathan grinned and helped her off the couch with him. Brooke headed into the kitchen with him following close behind, went to make dinner. They ended up fixing grilled chicken, mashed potatoes and corn. Something the couple loved. It wasn't until after dinner that things kind of took a turn for the worse. While Nathan was watching basketball with his son next to him he heard and crash in the kitchen. Nathan stormed in to find Brooke on the floor picking up broken glass caused from a plate. "Brooke what happened!"
She looked up and saw Bennett standing at the entrance of the kitchen. The expression on her face was scared. What had just happened? She knew that playing it off was the best option but what the heck happened just then. "Sweetie, mommy's okay go back to watching t.v. Daddy will help me."
Nathan stood there with a shocked look on his face. It was until Brooke stood up that he snapped back into reality. "What just happened Brooke? Did you faint?"
"No, of course not. I-i just.. the plate slipped out of my hands is all." She tried to play it off, but as she looked down her hands were still shaking.
He gave her the 'i'm not buying your story' look but then there was a knock at the door. Nathan rushed to get it with Brooke following after him. The sheriff was at their door acompanied by another police officer. Brooke stayed close to Nathan's shoulder. "We found Damien. He was just about to get on a plane in Flordia. But we got him and he's in custody."
Brooke began to break down in happy tears as Nathan held her close, he also was relieved. "Wow, uhh thankyou for coming and telling us."
"Yes. There is no way Damien will be able to hurt you and anyone else again. We're doing everything in our power to make sure Mr. West will never see the light of day again."
The officer said with pride and sincerity.
"Thankyou sooo much. I'm sure my sister is at peace now. I know we are." Brooke smiled half-hearted. Things were starting to look up for her and her family. She had an amazing 3yr old son and the greatest fiance that any girl could only wish for. Brooke finally felt at ease.
Nathan and Brooke were laying in bed that night cuddling, they lifted up their hands and intertwined them together. "Everything is working out baby. Now nothing can tear us apart." Nathan whispered into her hair, placing a kiss on it afterward. Brooke fell asleep right away in his arms, there were no more bad dreams this time. All she had to look forward to was marrying the man of her dreams and a family she wouldn't change for the world.
At 8am the next morning Bennett came rushing in to his parents bedroom and jumped on their beds. "Momma, Daddy wake up wake up!" The sleepy couple lifted their heads off their pillows and smiled at the three year old. "Now, why is my baby boy all excited for, huh?" Her dimple smile appeared when she looked over at Nathan.
"You're gettin' 'marweed' to daddy tomawo. You gots lots mo to do." Bennett yelled excitedly, still jumping up snd down on his parents legs.
Brooke let out a ridiculously loud laugh and grabbed her son tight for a hug. The three got out of bed and went down stairs to get breakffast started. As the day wore on, so did Brooke's paranoia. She needed things to go off without a hitch tomorrow. Peyton had came over around 10am and they began touching up on the final finishes. Of course, Nathan stayed home with Bennett while Brooke and Peyton went to do their nails. Things went pretty smoothly until darkness hit Tree Hill. Just as planned, Nathan went out with Lucas for alittle guys night out, it wasn't really considered a bachelor party. They'd gone to Tric for some beer and played a few games of pool. But just as the night came to an end. Daphne Raynes made an appearence, hoping to do some damage before tomrrow. Yup that's exactly what happened.
"Hey there handsome. You enjoying your last hours of freedom?" Daphne asked huskily as she approached the pool table. Her outfit was pretty slutty and people around them couldn't stop their stares.
Nathan grinned at her, he looked at her and felt nothing now. "Yeah Daphne i am. Is there something you need?"
Lucas was the baar getting drinks when he saw the 'slut' walk in and come up to Nathan. He knew his little bro could handle himself but something urged him to take out his phone and text Brooke. 'This should be interesting' he mumbled to himself before taking a drink of his beer.
The two bestfriends were watching sappy movies and eating junkfood that night... yes the day before her wedding. Brooke was sitting down on the sofa waiting for PEyton to come back in the room with the popcorn. Her excitment was up and all she coukd think about was marrying Nathan tomorrow. She was going to be Brooke Davis- Scott in a matter of hours. "So are you excited to become a Scott tomorrow?" Peyton suddenly appeared next to her with a big bowl of popcorn.
Her signature dimples smile appeared, "God you have NO idea P. Saywer."
PEyton laughed, "Ya know you're not gonna be B. Davis anymore! You're gonna be B. Scott!" Gasp. Her smile was sarcastic.
Brooke threw a pillow a pillow at her bestfriend. "No! I'll always be B. Davis."
"Yeah yeah save it. Haha maybe i'll just have to find a new bestfriend to call that." She joked.
Just then Brooke's phone vibrated and she looked at it. What she saw surpirsed her. "That bitch."
The curly blonde eye's widened, "Brooke i was kidding. You know no one could ever replace you."
The brunette looked up, "No, that bitch! Daphne! She as so happened to show up at Tric. Ugh i needa get down there. Luke says she's dressed up like a slut."
"Oooh girl fight. Rrrr, lets go." Peyton giggled.
"It's time to put that skank in her place!" Brooke growled as the two girls made their way out to the car.
"Now you're starting to sound like Rachel." Her words were immediatly regretted, not sure how Brooke would react to that comment. But Brooke was too heated up to pay attention so they got in the car and headed to Tric. It only took about ten minutes. The fiesty brunette pushed through the crowd at Tric and headed to the pool table. There she that skank plunge her lips on to Nathan, only to be pulled pff the second after. "What the hell are you thinking Daphne, i'm marrying Brooke tomorrow!"
Thats when everything started.
Brooke walked up to her husband-to-be and Daphne. "Excuse you, skank! I think you've gone and busted your head because this my man. Now why don't you get your slutty ass out of here or else i'll do it myself!"
Daphne made a discusting pouty face, "Aww and what're you gonna do if i don't? Last time I checked this was a public place."
"I'll personally make you leave." Brooke growled, stepping closer to the woman that just kissed her fiance. Her anger was practically up to her ears now. It was only going to take one more thing to make her go off. She finally realized how Nathan felt when he kicked Damien's butt.
Daphne set her pool cue down and smirked at Brooke. "Oh yeah, what'a you going to do? Smash glass into my head?"
y All of a Brooke's thoughts of that horrific night came rushing back to her. Damien. Damien who abused her for months and then almost killed her. And then her almost killing him. If she no one was around her she would've broke down but due to her situation Brooke lift her fist and punched Daphne strait in the face. And let me tell ya, that bitch went down. But it wasn't over,
clearly.
Daphne huffed and stood up, "Least I'm not a horible mother who abonded her child."
Those words hurt. Brooke this time grabbed Daphne's hair and smacked her down on the pool table. From there on the two fiesty girls battled it out. Screams and dirty words were thrown out at eachother, neither of them held back. No one stopped it until Nathan picked Brooke off of his ex girlfriend and yelled, "Brooke she isn't worth it." When he set her back on her feet their foreheads came together and his hands were at either side of her face, as hers with his.
It took the brunette a minute to stop panting when she looked into Nathan's blue eyes, where she felt comfort. An exasperated sob left her lips and then she tried to smile when Nathan said,
"Come on babe, lets just go home and be with our son." The four of them left together and went back to the house, Deb had arrived with Bennett after gettting the call from her son. For the rest of the night, Brooke, Nathan, Bennett, Lucas and Peyton watched movies and ate pizza. They had a great rest-of-the-night and ended up passing out all together in the family room.
