"How come I feel like this is a very bad idea?" I voice my opinion that has been racing through my head since this little plan has been announced.

"I don't know because you think half the things we do is a bad idea," Nash struggles and I roll my eyes.

"It's not a bad idea," Lucas tells me but I still don't think he is right, I think it's a terrible idea. "It's not even that big of a deal," he shrugs, grabbing his wallet off the counter and sliding it in his back pocket.

"I personally think this is a fabulous idea," Heath gives that little grin making me want to slap him.

"You think everything is a fabulous idea if alcohol is involved," Rachel scoffs as we both lean up against the counter with our arms crossed.

"That is not at all true," he objects. "Wait, maybe it is," he says getting a laugh from the guys as the finish getting ready for their night out.

"Sissy," Tony mocks my nickname Aiden gave me, only really using it one, when he wants something and is pouting and two when he is drunk. Right now it's the first but I'm just waiting for the latter one tonight. "It's our little Jay's 21st birthday and he is not going with us to Florida, we have to take him out."

"But tonight?" I raise my brow with an annoyed look. I mean I get they want to take him out, I mean he is 21 yay cartwheel for that, but why can't they do this little boys night when we get back. "You do realize we are going to Florida in the morning, which means," I pause looking at my phone, "Eleven hours. You idiots can't be hungover on the way there, because I am not driving."

"Neither am I, if ya'll are dumb enough to get completely wasted before we go on a ten hour drive then fine, not my problem," Rachel agrees, clearly not agreeing with this amazing decision they are making.

"Well you both love two of the idiots so what does it say about you?" Jason questions as he rolls up his sleeve to just below his elbow.

"I'm thinking that means Brooke and I need to find new guys," Rachel jokes making both of our boys freeze giving a 'that's not funny' look.

"B look," Jason walks over placing his hands on my shoulders. "Mom is out for the night, Kylee is staying the night with a friend and Aiden is at Papa and Grandmama's house; you and Rach have the entire house to yourselves to do whatever you want. Stay in, go out, hell go roll a house I don't care but I do know that ya'll get a trip to Florida while I get to work so suck it the hell up!" He pats my head before walking over and grabbing the keys, tossing them to Nash.

"Well maybe he is right B," I look over at Rachel who has her mind working. "If they can go out why can't we?"

"What?" Tony slowly perks up and jumps into our conversation.

"Hmm that's true," I ponder the thought. "You know I heard that a lot of the kids we went to school with are having like this party down at the beach. We could go; I haven't seen them in awhile."

"That doesn't sound like something ya'll should do," Lucas chimes in.

"Yeah it's dark," Tony agrees but we just both act like we don't hear them.

"You know I heard about that. Cooper actually might be there, maybe we could catch up," Rachel jokes and I have to bite back the laugh when I see my brother's face.

"That's it we aren't going," Tony drops his wallet and keys on the table.

"I know this was a stupid plan," Lucas agrees as they both fall down on the table. "Going out on your 21st birthday is not that big of a deal."

"Oh my god ya'll are so whipped!" Jason rolls his eyes making Heath and Nash laugh.

"Look just because you don't have someone who wants you doesn't mean we are stupid enough screw up with the ones we do," Tony points at him, now making Rach and I laugh.

Then like always being the most amazing people we are Rachel and I saw a look before shaking our heads and at the same times going, "Tony, Broody," with a small pout.

"Yes?" both give a sweet little grin as we walk over placing our hands on their shoulders.

"Ya'll can go," Rachel gives a childish look that I copy.

"We just want ya'll to come home in one piece because we want this trip to be great," I explain getting goose bumps when Lucas places his hands on my hips pulling me into him. His hands feel so warm on my cool skin.

"It will be great," Lucas says moving his hand slowly down my hip and to the outside of my thigh.

"Ok ya'll are annoyingly sick," Heath groans making us laugh a little.

"We will be in the car. Ya'll pansy asses come on when you find balls!" Jason yells as they start heading out of the house.

"Check Rachel and Brooke's purse!" We all hear Nash yell before the door closes.

"You know I don't even like them," Lucas looks over at Tony who laughs.

"Yeah me neither I don't know why we even hang out with them," he agrees making Rachel and I laugh. "But my beautiful baby I have to go," he pats Rachel's hip as she steps back with a pout.

"Stay out of trouble," she points at him making him laugh a little.

"I will, promise," he lifts her chin giving her a small kiss. "I love you," he whispers as he leans his forehead against hers and I'm pretty sure shock just spread across my entire face.

"I love you too," she whispers back before slowly pushing her lips back against his, yet they don't break apart, just slowly move backwards towards the front door, lips still hooked together.

"Did you hear that?" I point my thumb over my shoulder.

"Hear what?" Lucas asks, his eyes not at all on my face, just slowly running over my body as I stand here. "Sorry," he grins all innocently when I place my finger under his chin and tilt his head up to look at me. "What were you saying?"

"Nothing," I shake my head just figuring I will dismiss the thought of Rachel and Tony. Their whole relationship has been confusing me; I don't know why this is any different. Those two just keep throwing me through a loop, and though I would never assume that they would end up together I would definitely never assume they would ever use the L word; I mean they use to make it seem it was the dirtiest word in the world, but hey they just said it.

"You sure?" He asks rubbing his hand slowly up and down my leg making my whole body tingle. I forgot how much of an affect his small touches have on me.

"Mhmm…" I nod, slowly running my hand down his arm and taking his hand in mine, bringing his hand to my lips and kissing it.

"I should go," he stands up his body pushing up against mine.

"Yeah," I agree, slowly lifting on my toes and pushing a kiss to his perfect lips. "Please be careful."

"We will," his nods, his hand playing with my hair. "Are you and Rachel going out to that beach thing?"

"We might," my hand tightens on the side of his shirt, pulling him closer. "If ya'll aren't to wasted maybe you can come by and see me."

"We don't get wasted," he rolls his baby blues. "We just drink some."

"Whatever," I laugh peering up under my lashes at him.

"Be careful tonight," he leans his forehead against mine making me smile. "Keep Rachel out of trouble because I know she can get into it and bring you with her."

"I will," I agree, "See you when you get back," I grin but still standing still, paying close attention to his fingers creeping up under my shirt and rubbing my skin.

"Oh gag," we both come out of our trance to see Rachel leaning against the door frame. "You two are not doing that saying bye a million times before leaving are you?"

"Of course not," I object resting my head on Lucas's chest. "I just don't like him leaving me," I shrug knowing that after our crazy past few weeks I just want him with me all the time, not out with the guys drinking.

"I won't be out long," he drops a kiss to my head.

"Ok, well I will probably be asleep when you get back; so if I am just come on in my room," I left my head to look at him.

"Sounds like a plan," he lifts my chin a little higher and pushing a kiss to my lips. "Bye baby," he winks releasing me from his arms and heading towards the door. "Rach, don't get into trouble," he jokes, yet still a little serious as he walks out and we hear the front door shut.

"Why do they always assume I am the one to get you into trouble?" Rachel asks like she is truly offended.

"Because you normally are," I tease and she just sends me a playful glare that I laugh at. "Come on ya whore," I grab her arm dragging her towards my room.

"Are we going to the beach tonight?" she asks falling on my bed as I walk over to my closet.

"I don't know do you want to?" I toss a glance over my shoulder seeing her shrug.

"I mean I told Tony I would and he said if we do to let him know because they may come by," she tells me with a huge grin when her phone goes off.

"Let me guess Tony?" I raise my brow and making her try to hide her smile yet it is useless. "You know I'm ok with it now," I state seeing her lift her head to look at me. "I will admit at first it was really weird, sometimes it's still weird, but I haven't seen you or Tony this happy in a long time; I like it."

"You know I never meant for it to happen," she tells me and I nod knowing that. "I know we flirted and joked but I never thought it would really happen. Yet I don't know what happened, that night we were just dancing and he was making me laugh and I hadn't laughed for real in such a long time Brooke. But I admit I was for some reason a little jealous of Ryann talking to him and then he called and I was upset about Cooper, my parents were leaving that night to go out of town, so I was alone and lonely and he just came by."

"Did you ask him too?" I wonder but she shakes her head no.

"He called like I said looking for you and I guess he noticed I had been crying so asked what was wrong and talked for awhile on the phone, well he said he didn't like me being home upset and alone and he was coming over. I of course said no because he was one drinking that night and two still doesn't have his license back but for some reason he came. We didn't really talk at first, just sat on the couch watching a movie, he didn't push it; he didn't ask anything just sat there. it was actually comforting that he sat on the other side of the couch, but we would just toss glances every now and again, scoot a little closer and before I knew it we were right next to each other, his arm around my shoulder and mine resting on his leg. I swear we looked at each other at one point and he gave me a look that freaked me out and I just shook my head, like without words I knew what he was thinking and it was in my mind wrong. He just leaned closer to me and asked me why and I said because of you."

"You really said that?" I ask not knowing why I am shocked, I just thought for some reason that would be Tony's first thought, kind of like how he would never let me get that close to his friends.

"Yeah, Brooke you don't get you are my best friend. I mean yeah I have Haley and Peyton and all them but it is always going to be us. When things are bad I come to you, when I'm upset you, when I'm happy you. I wasn't going to do something stupid enough to mess that up."

"I know," I nod agreeing with her little spill. Rachel and I are best friends, no matter what, no matter what messes us up or stresses us out, we come to each other.

"So believe me when I say I tried but B I was so upset and he made me feel good for the first time in such a long time. He said stuff I knew he thought was true and he looked at me in a way no one in my life has looked at me and when he kissed me," she pauses biting her bottom lip with a smile plastered on her face. "God B when he kissed me I was like a goner, I would have done anything that boy wanted. I just need you to know that I would never let me and him affect you and me."

"I know Rach," I smile. "I can tell ya'll love each other. I'm happy for you both." I tell her honestly yanking her into a hug, "You're my best friend ever, I just want you happy."

"I am happy," she tells me and I know she is. I can see the way they look at each other she is nuts about my brother. "But anyway," she shakes her head of the smile. "What we doing tonight?"


"So I feel weird," I comment as I walk, arm linked with Rachel's as we head down a path through the woods.

"Why? Because we are hottier then all of them?" she jokes. "Shit," she curses when she steps in a small hole.

"No because I haven't seen any of them in like a year," I explain stepping out of the woods and into the music, camp fire, and sea of people. "Plus I never really hung out with these people in school," I look around noticing all the familiar faces but no faces of people I would think of as friends.

"Yeah well I hung out with most of them but really couldn't stand them," she shrugs.

"Yeah they were all annoying. Plus did I tell you that some of them know Lucas?" I turn to look at her as she raises her brow, "Yeah, well since he graduated from Tree Hill they knew of him, and since he was Nathan's brother they have actually hung out with him."

"Like who is some of them?"

"Like Janice," I groan just thinking about the cheering slut even ten feet of my boyfriend; gross.

"He did not?" Rachel shows just as much disgust as I did the day I found out.

"He did, apparently at one of Dan's Christmas parties and if you think I took her informing me of that well you would be wrong," I tell her scanning the crowd and landing on the skank in question. "God I can't stand that girl and the thought of her touching him just makes me… ugh!"

"I bet, see that's why I chose not to think of any of the girls Tony did stuff with while at college because honestly I don't want to know," she crosses her arms over her chest and I know that is a lie.

"Really?"

"Ok I do but I just…" she sighs looking at the ground.

"You just what?" I look at my best friend who quickly got upset about something; what I don't know.

"I just don't want him to ask about the guys I have been with because we both know it's a little high," she frowns and I feel bad for my friend, I knew she would hate that fact one day and I know she knew that too; sadly here that day is.

"Rach…"

"I know you don't understand," she reads my mind quickly. "I envy you B, I wish I wanted until I was in love and I wish more than anything I would have waited for Tony like you did Lucas."

"Yeah," I sigh a little thinking about Lucas. "If it makes you feel better we haven't had sex in…" I trail off trying to remember the last time. "Almost three months I think," I tell her seeing the shock spread across her face.

"Are you serious?" she questions and I nod. "Damn, I thought ya'll went at it like rabbits. You are stronger than me, all Tony has to do is look at me and I jump him."

"Yeah," I laugh a little trying my best not to picture my best friend and brother going at it. "Well we did it the night we got back together, the next morning, then the night you and Tony got together, then the last time was that morning after at my grandparent's house."

"That was the time you got…"

"Yeah," I nod knowing what she was thinking as we start walking towards the crowd of people. "Then it seemed like every time we would get a chance to someone walked in or something came up and then after that I found out I was pregnant, I found out I lost our baby and then my body was almost freaked about it and it wasn't ready and now…" I trail off thinking.

"Now what?" She asks and I pause again turning to look at her.

"I'm scared," I confess. "I'm scared that it won't be like before, that my mind just won't be completely into it anymore because it's too busy thinking about what happened the last time and then he will think for some reason I'm not into him anymore and that's not it. I just don't want to not be like how it was and I am also scared I might…" I frown looking at the ground. "That I might get pregnant again and lose my baby again."

"Brooke…" Rachel places her hand on my shoulder and I blink a few times.

"I know that's dumb, I mean the doctor said it would be extremely hard to again but I just keep thinking I might and my body will again not be able to handle it and I will lose my baby all of again, I don't think I can handle that again."

"Brooke I can't even pretend that I understand what you are feeling but you have to know that whatever happens you aren't alone. If something happens you don't have to deal with it alone this time, you have us and you have Lucas."

"I know, I know I do it's just a fear I have to push myself to get over. I know Lucas won't push it but I do know it's hard for him."

"Yeah I mean he is a guy," Rachel shrugs making me laugh. "And you're hot as hell so that adds to the difficulty."

"Rach you are so stupid," I laugh shaking my head. "I love you but you are stupid."

"Yeah well," she shrugs grabbing a beer out of a cooler. "Here you go," she hands me a drink as we pop the top. "A toast," she holds her can up making me laugh, shaking my head again. "Here is to you and Lucas, me and Tony and to us, a friendship that has gone through too much shit to not be forever."

"Here is to that," I tap my can to hers and taking a sip as we look around at all the people.

"Brooke! Rachel!" We hear a squeal turning to see a bubbly blonde we have both actually missed.

"Bevin!" We both smile hugging the tipsy blonde and ignoring the guys around her who are still giving us the look of not belonging. Rachel was more into this crowd in high school and I definitely wasn't and it amazes me after a year of being out of school some of the guys and girls still act as if someone like me shouldn't be around their group of friends. It's quite baffling.

"How are you?" I ask brushing a piece of hair out of my face.

"I'm doing pretty great!" she is her normal chipper person and I really have missed her. I don't think I have seen her since the night Lucas and I got back together and like I said before that's been almost three months. "How are you doing? Great I hope?" she asks yet her being Bevin starts talking before we can even answer, "Oh my god Brooke I forgot to tell you. So I went to the mall the other day and there was this top that I just loved so I bought it, but you see I get home and then I realized I just looked stupid in it so I thought like who would look great in this and I of course thought of you. I mean you can wear a garbage and look great, I swear you should just model clothes, they all fit you well."

"Thanks Bev," I smile shaking my head. Word of advice for anyone out there, if you are having a bad day just find Bevin because she will make you feel like a million bucks; she I know people think is ditzy but she has the best heart of anyone I know.

"Yeah it's at home but I will bring it by sometime," she flashes me a smile, pulling out her phone when it starts to ring, "Oh I have to get this, but I will talk to you later, love you both!" she blows a kiss before skipping off.

"You know who she would be great with?" I look over at Rachel who is thinking, I'm sure the same thing I am.

"Nash," we both say at the same time laughing. "We might try and hook that up."

"Yes I agree; it might happen." I laugh sipping on my beer and feeling my phone going off in my back pocket.

"Hmm… I wonder who that is," Rachel teases as I look at my I.D.

"Oh like you haven't been texting Tony non-stop since we have gotten here," I roll my eyes, laughing at her 'whatever' as I answer my phone. "Boyfriend," I grin big chewing on my thumb nail.

"Hello Pretty Girl what are you doing?" I hear my boyfriend's voice making me of course smile.

"Nothing just hanging with Rach," I plug my left ear with my finger so I can hear Lucas better of the loud music.

"Really? Are ya'll at the beach?"

"Umm…yeah but I don't know how long we are going to stay, I forgot how much I didn't like these people," I kick a rock into the water as I walk away from the crowd.

"Hey be nice, those people thought I was like god," he jokes making me roll my eyes.

"Oh god I think I just threw up a little," I tease, pretending to gag.

"Hey Brooke?"

"Yeah?" I take a sip of my beer and adjust my hair all to my right shoulder.

"What are you wearing?" he teases making my eyes widen.

"Luke!" I shriek, "You can't ask me that, you are with my brothers," I remind him knowing they are most likely in ear shot.

"Hmm…well let me think then… I bet you have on that tight white sun dress that hits mid thigh, showing off those amazing legs of yours, your black leather jacket and a pair of… " he pauses for a minute, "Oh black flip flops you love."

"Ok how did you do that?" I question turning around and looking around the people around me.

"Well let's see…" he again pauses, "I am with your brothers, Nash and Heath, oh and do you remember Noah? He graduated with Nate but he is here and then Tim is here, well was I don't know where he went, oh and I think Rachel just came up to us."

"What?" I spin around to where I just left Rachel finding her not there. "Where are you?"

"Turn to your left," he instructs and I follow his orders. "Now take I don't know…umm…fifteen steps forward, towards the fire." He explains and I do as he asks, "Damn baby you look really hot right now. You have that whole wind blowing thing going on. Oh and now your blushing which makes it even better."

"Ok you are going to have to stop that, I don't like you being able to see me and I can't see you," I joke stopping about four steps from the fire.

"Well then look up," he tells me and I look up to see him through the crackling fire. They guys scattered around his side and of course Rachel and Tony whispering something to each other and slowly walking off towards the water, I don't want to know what they are doing.

"Hey I got to go there is a hot blonde checking me out," I tease walking around the fire.

"Yeah me too, there is a gorgeous girl in a white dress and I might have to try to get her number."

"Good luck," I joke shutting my phone when I'm standing right in front of my boyfriend.

"Thanks," he smiles, shutting his phone and putting it back in his pocket.

"Looks like someone wasn't having too much fun tonight," I joke wrapping my arms around his neck, his placing on my hips.

"No we just decided that we would come make sure you two were staying out of trouble before we took out Jason and got him into trouble," he shrugs making me roll my eyes.

"Well as long as you stay out of trouble I don't really care what Jay does," I inform, making him laugh.

"I always stay out of trouble."

"No shit!" we both hear turning to look at Camden walking towards us.

"Great," I groan dropping my head against Lucas's chest. I don't like Camden; I actually can't stand him because all through school he acted like he was the best guy ever, that we should feel blessed to know him. He would be nice to you if it was just you two but as soon as the 'Trish's' of the school came around he acted as if he didn't have a clue who you were. He is your typical wanna be all through high school and he is just so annoying.

"What?" Lucas asks but I don't have a chance to say anything before Camden is by our side, I chose to just keep my head buried in my boyfriend's chest looking away from him.

"Lucas Scott what's up man?" He gives him one of those hand things guys do that I again don't get. "I heard you were here but I didn't know it was true. How's college been?"

"It's been alright, I actually graduated and moved back to Tree Hill and been back for almost a year now." A year. I smile thinking about it, I have known Lucas Scott a year and in that time we have been through so much crap but we are still together, and I haven't been this happy in a long time.

"That's awesome," his tone makes me cringe. "Who's your friend?" he questions and I know he is talking about me and with a groan I slowly lift my head from my boyfriend's chest to finally look at him.

"Hey Camden," I somewhat mumble wrapping my arms around Lucas's waist.

"Brooke Davis?" he raises his brow like he is confused I'm here. "How do you know Luke?"

"Well he is Nathan's brother, who is still dating my best friend," I remind him like he is dumb. "Oh and he has been my boyfriend for the last nine months," I smirk a little, enjoying the grin that fades from his face.

"You're with Brooke?" he points at me and looks at Lucas like that is the craziest thing ever.

"Umm…yeah," Lucas's arms tighten around me.

"Wow, I didn't see that coming," he comments taking a sip of his drink.

"Why?" Lucas's hands run down resting on my hips, playing with the small tie that is hooked to my dress.

"It's just in high school, Brooke was I don't know," he shrugs taking another sip of his beer.

"Well you said it so you must know," Lucas pushes. "What was she?"

"Its just Luke in high school you were getting some from all the best girls, hell you got all the best girls in your grade, Nate's and even mine and don't take this the wrong way Brooke but you weren't really the type of girl Luke was hooking up with."

"Well I'm not just hooking up with Brooke," Lucas growls at a completely oblivious Camden.

"Yeah and that's cool man, it's still just a little shocking," Camden continues and I really wish he would just shut up, I guess the beer he has been drinking tonight is affecting the don't piss of the guy who is bigger than me awareness. "Plus I thought she was with Shane," and Lucas's grip tightens a little more around me.

"Why would you think that?" His teeth I'm sure digging into each other as he talks, yeah he doesn't like Shane.

"Well I mean didn't ya'll hook up like all the time?" he looks at me and I groan resting my head in Lucas's chest knowing that one really pissed him off.

"Hell no she didn't!" he tells him quickly. "That jackass never touched her!"

"Well I mean he touched her," Camden laughs and I feel Lucas's tense as I stand in his arms.

"Luke," I whisper tilting my head up, knowing he is getting mad; he's a little protective of me. "Hey," I place my hand on his cheek tilting his head down to look at me. "You know the truth Broody," I tell him leaning up and slowly capturing his lips.

"I know," he grins pressing a kiss to my forehead as I lean back down on my feet.

"But Camden," I quickly change my tone flipping my head around to look at him. "High school was forever ago, if you haven't noticed we graduated and I'm sure that you peaked in high school but you really need to get over it. Who I was in school really doesn't matter since I am who I am now and just because you wouldn't have given me the time of day doesn't really mean anything."

"Brooke I didn't mean it like that alright? I was just stating that someone like you normally doesn't date someone like Luke. Let alone for nine months," he explains and I want to bitch slap this guy.

"Camden you should really stop talking," I warn knowing not to upset Lucas.

"Why?" he asks stupidly making just want to slap my hand to my face.

"Ok man," Lucas's arms stay put protectively around me. "I'm going to take into account you are drunk and the fact you may be living in the past a little so I'm not going to hit you for completely bashing my girlfriend."

"Lucas…"

"Shh… baby I'm trying to talk," Lucas teases putting his finger to my lips, making me laugh.

"Don't Shh me," I pout pulling myself away from him.

"Nope," he grabs onto me again.

"Yup," I wiggle away from him, just thankful his mood is better now, not in his hitting people mood.

"Ok that's it," Lucas throws me over his shoulder making me squeal.

"Lucas put me down!" I wiggle, "Luke people can see up my dress!"

"No they can't," he objects slapping his hand to my butt and holding down my dress.

"Lucas Scott!" I slam my hands into his back making him laugh. "Put me down!"

"Cam it was nice talking to you again, well maybe a little I don't know, but I feel you might piss me off where I might hit you and you see if I hit you this gorgeous thing gets pissed," he throws his shoulder up making me bounce up before slamming back down on his shoulder.

"Luke man I-"

"It's alright," Lucas holds his hand up to stop him from talking, "Like I said your drunk and honestly I'm glad you weren't hitting on my girlfriend because that pisses me off too…"

"Lucas Scott I am going to bit you!" I inform him really wanting my feet to be back on the ground.

"Isn't she just so aggressive?" He jokes making Camden let out an unsure laugh. "Yeah it really works for me most times, well not for me just for me if you know what I'm saying."

"Lucas!" I squeal not believing he just said that. "Have you been drinking?"

"Not yet," he tells me and I lift my body up a little to look better at him. "I mean no mom I would never drink, that's just irresponsible."

"Whatever," I playfully roll my eyes at him as he starts walking backwards.

"But again Camden I'm going to be off so see you whenever it happens just don't talk to my girl sound good? Great," his tone is cheerfully fake as he spins around and we walk away, well he walks away, I get carried.

"Broody if you don't put me down right now I will kick your ass!" I tell him growing a little nervous when we walk onto the dock and I see the water around me, "But if you put me in water I will kill you!"

"I'm not going to put you in water," he laughs and I relax a little on his shoulder. "Here we go," he slings me back over his shoulder and I slam my eyes shut with a small shriek anticipating cold water, yet just feel myself on a hard rail. "You're not in water open your eyes," he tells me and I slowly peak my eyes open to see I'm just on the dock and not in the water; because I would seriously kill him.

"Lucas Scott does this dock belong to you?" I tease raising my brow, "Because if not we could be trespassing a little."

"Well the dock does belong to someone I'm sure," he gives a kiss to each side of my neck. "And I'm sure they don't like people on it but then again people are partying about ten feet from their dock," he says switching back to the other side of my neck and kissing up it, "But last time I checked it wasn't your house and we still…"

"Right," I nod knowing that one is true as he pulls off my neck smiling at me. "Look at you," I grin tracing my finger over his lips. "You have your real smile."

"Maybe because I am really happy," he grins even bigger placing my chin between his thumb and finger, "Come here," he lifts my chin and dips his head down kissing me and sending a wave of goose bumps through my body. I forgot the feeling his kisses gives me. "Have you been drinking?" He pulls back to look at me, licking his bottom lip.

"Only a few sips," I shrug wrapping my arms around his neck.

"Who is driving you home?" he asks, dropping his gaze to my legs, again licking his lips but for an entirely different reason.

"I don't know Rach," I shrug letting out a long breath when he traces the top of my thigh with his finger.

"Ya'll need to be careful," he swallows hard and takes a step closer, his finger inching a little higher.

"We will," I watch his hand move higher making my heart race faster.

"I like this dress," his finger fiddles with the hem of my dress.

"Thanks," I breathe out heavier then I planned. "Where is everyone?" I question when my dress gets raised a little higher and his hand goes with it.

"I don't know somewhere around," he says his gaze still on his hand, and then slowly lifting his eyes to look at me, making my heart race even faster; if possible. "Do you want me to stop?" he questions and I dart my eyes from my leg to his eyes, back to his hand.

"I don't want to be unfair to you," I whisper giving him a small kiss.

"You're not," he says quietly, his hand going a little higher.

"I feel like I am," I frown dropping my head to his shoulder and pulling him close.

"Why?" He questions kissing the side of my neck making me get a feeling I haven't gotten in a long time.

"I don't know," I admit, running my hands down to his belt loops and pulling him closer to me, the only things really separating us is his jeans. "Luke…" I gasp out kissing the side of his neck.

"You ok?" he asks and I nod feeling his hand going up higher.

"Mm…" I yank in a sharp breath when his hand grazes over the slim material. Then he pulls back from my neck and smiles at me and when he smiles I can't help but smile and bring him into a kiss. His lips feel so perfect against mine, they never don't feel perfect and soft and smooth; I'm so nuts about this boy. Wrapping my arms around his neck I yank him even closer to me as his other hand slides up my leg and under my dress giving me chills. I think he might be doing something but instead both his hands slide up my body and hold onto my hips, stroking my skin.

"I should leave," he mumbles against my lips pulling my lower half closer to him.

"Mhmm…" I nod in agreement but the only movement I change is sliding my hands to his face.

"Promised the guys I wouldn't stay to long, just to check on ya'll," he tells me, shifting his feet forward and I feel my heart pounding as it tries to decide if I want him to leave or stay with me longer.

"Yeah, check on us," I agree, running my hands to his shirt and my hands under feeling his body I felt like I haven't seen or touched in weeks.

"And I did that," he says slipping his tongue in my mouth and I just about decide to spend the rest of the night making out with my boyfriend until I feel a vibrating in his pants making me pull back.

"Broody…" I giggle pulling out of our kiss, him giving me a confused look. "Your pants are vibrating," I tell him and his gaze drops down to his pants making me laugh a little more.

"I'm what?" He asks and I see his eyes widen when I slide my hand in his pocket and pulling out his phone. "Oh," he seems a little annoyed taking his phone from me. "Hello?" he answers and I smirk a little leaning up and kissing against his neck, making him roll his head back to the side. "We aren't doing anything," he rolls his eyes, running his hand through my hair. "Oh…" his hand suddenly drops and he slowly takes a step back from me and I look at him confused, as he nods his head over my shoulder and I turn around seeing the guys on the beach, phone glued to Jason's ear.

"Oh god," I laugh resting my head on his shoulder seeing the boys wave.

"We are just talking…" he lies running his finger over my collar bone and hitting the speaker on his phone.

"Yeah I don't think you two ever just talk." I hear the teasing voice of my brother making me shake my head.

"We are just talking…Lucas was telling me how he was just about to leave," I take Lucas's hand bringing it closer to my mouth to talk.

"Mhmm…alright, well ya'll done talking? I want to go out with the guys now." He tells me making me roll my eyes.

"Ok, I'm coming, I'm coming."

"Good. Now get your hand out of my sister's dress and get over here, now." His last comment making me blush and Lucas groan a little.

"My hand isn't up her dress," he holds both his hands up showing where they are and I look over my shoulder seeing the boys roll their eyes, Rachel laugh and Jason get this weird look like he is thinking.

"Good, that's gross," he says and Lucas doesn't even comment just shuts the phone.

"We are going to have to talk to your brother's about the definition of gross," he tells me making me laugh. "Because nothing we do is gross," he says leaning in and giving me a soft kiss.

"Not even a little," I smile holding his gaze a little longer. "Do you want to carry me?" I bit my bottom lip and give him a childish look that makes him let out a laugh.

"Yeah Pretty Girl I will carry you," he grins spinning around and I move onto his back.

"Thanks," I smile as we start walking; kissing the side of his neck and tugging on his earlobe making him growl a little. "Sorry," I giggle wrapping my arms around him to steady myself and loving when he kisses my arm. Those little gestures get me every time, his little touches, kisses, looks; they all just get me.

"Aww look here they are," Heath jokes as we walk up and I slide of my boyfriend's back. "I hope your little activates didn't tire you out," he teases as Lucas's wraps his arm over my shoulder.

"Oh Heath shut it," Rachel pushes him in the side giving me a comforting smile. "Ya'll just need to leave my girl alone."

"We do leave her alone, we leave her and Luke alone maybe a little too much," Tony jokes making me groan. I don't get it, he and Rachel go at it like rabbits not even caring who is around but me and Lucas get ten feet near each other and it's like we are committing the ultimate sin or something.

"You leave her alone Tony Davis," she points at him and he just stands grinning at her. "I'm serious if don't you will be taking care of all your manly needs and wants all by yourself," she threatens making me cringe thinking about it and the guys laugh.

"Sorry Brooke," he grits his teeth with a groan.

"It's ok Tony," I pinch his cheek making him slap my hand away. "Well I guess you have to get going," I shrug leaning back into Lucas.

"Finally!" Jason spins on his feet, "We are finally leaving!" he cheers walking off and Nash and Heath slowly follow.

"Be safe," I turn to look up at Lucas, sure Rachel was saying the same thing to my brother. "Don't do anything stupid, don't drink too much and please watch the boys for me; Jay doesn't hold his alcohol well."

"We will be good, we promise," he drops a kiss to my nose. "You two stay out of trouble," he tosses a gaze from Rachel then back to me.

"Always," I grin giving my all to famous line when I'm told to stay out of trouble or be careful, "Always."


"Brooke!" Rachel laughs as I slide through my kitchen. We decided after the boys left that being at home was going to be a lot more fun than the beach; the people there we really just didn't care to talk too.

"I'm ok," I laugh pulling myself up from doing a complete split on the floor.

"Wow I see why Lukie keeps you around," she teases and I look at her confused. "You're very limber," she smirks.

"Shut up!" I squeal throwing a piece of popcorn at her; before popping a piece in my mouth.

"I'm just saying," she shrugs leaning back on the stool. "That boy wants you all the time, so either you are just great in bed or he is just overly horny."

"My boyfriend is not overly horny," I object grabbing a coke from the fridge. "So it must be the first one," I smirk taking a sip on my drink.

"So we have never really talked about it before," she leans on the counter looking at me.

"Talked about what?" I move around the kitchen, grabbing the bowl of popcorn and heading into the living room to watch a movie.

"You and Lucas," she follows and I toss a look over at her confused. "Oh come on Brooke, Haley and I always talk about it and you never would because you never had but now you have so tell me what you think."

"I think…" I pause thinking. "I think that at first it's scary as hell, then it hurts like hell; I mean he dropped his pants and the first thing I thought was ok this isn't going to work." I say making her laugh.

"Yeah I know I saw him," she smirks making me groan thinking about it.

"Yeah just forget that little thought," I point at her making her laugh, "But it's like it hurt yet at the same time slowly started to feel good and Lucas was always doing whatever he could to make that happen but it did hurt."

"Yeah my first time wasn't that great, it hurt like hell and the guy never talked to me again," she frowns thinking about it before quickly erasing that feeling. "But back to Luke."

"Well I don't want to say that I had sex and it was perfect and magical and that girls shouldn't worry because it's not as hard as you think but," I chew my bottom lip before a smile breaks across my face. "But it is," I say laughing. "You're body almost by nature knows what it is doing and the person you are with will pretty much go as fast or slow as you want until you understand what is happening. I think if you wait for the right person it can be amazing, that if he truly loves you he will do what he can to make it hurt as least amount as he can and he will give you this look that makes you know you made the right decision and I think if you are truly nuts about him then it can be actually classified as something being perfect."

"Yeah," Rachel frowns chewing her lip. "I'm glad you waited Brooke," she looks at me with a look I haven't seen her give often. "I know you always just wanted to get it out of the way because Haley and I talked about it and everyone you knew were off doing it but I think you are almost one of a kind."

"Thanks," I laugh a little sitting the bowl between us.

"No I'm serious, I admire you and the decisions you have made," she smiles patting my leg. "I think one day you will realize how great you really are and see what all of us have seen for a long time."

"I don't think I am as great as you all think," I frown a little looking down at the popcorn bowl.

"You are," she gives my leg a squeeze, "And I am seriously waiting for the day you see that," she offers a wink leaning back on the couch and wrapping herself in a blanket, "So what we watching?" she flips on the DVD we picked and I just smile shaking my head at my best friend.

One of a kind is Rachel Gatina, she thinks I am destine for something great then she has really no idea how great she truly is and I too am waiting for her to realize that.


Going to bed about a good four hours ago I was in a pretty good sleep before I heard the door to my bedroom shut. I hear the movements of I assume my boyfriend moving through my bedroom, stumbling his whole way.

I feel the weight shift in my bed as I go into a half asleep half awake mode. I can smell his scent mixed with the smell of smoke and I really thank everything when he sits up pulling his smoke smelling shirt off and jeans. I hear the tossing over his phone yet it's not on my night stand it's a loud crash against my wall.

"Shit," I hear him curse before laughing a little.

"Luke?" I look over my shoulder seeing him through the dark room.

"Shh…" he hushes me lifting my sheets and climbing under them. "It's night time," he informs me.

"Yeah I know," I look at my clock seeing it's almost four. "Did you just throw your phone?"

"No, no I don't think I did that," he slurs rolling over in my bed to look at me. "You're so beautiful you know that? My beautiful girlfriend," he moves closer and slamming his lips into mine and I taste all the alcohol he has drank tonight.

"How much have you drank tonight?" I pull out of your kiss to ask.

"Only a lot," he informs me and I really can't help but laugh at his state. His hair even in the dark night I can see is completely out of place, his eyes are half squinting and he has just the most innocent looking smile etched on his face, a smile that is anything but innocent.

"Oh Broody," I shake my head with a laugh. "You're too much sometimes."

"I'm sorry," he frowns making me laugh a little more. "My girlfriend is laughing at me, why is she laughing at me?"

"Because you are adorable that's why, extremely drunk but adorable," I lean in kissing his nose.

"I can handle that," he pushes his finger to my nose and runs it down my face to my collar bone. "Guess-" he hiccups interrupting his words for a second. "Guess who I saw tonight?"

"Hmm…I don't know who?" I ask figuring I will just play along with his little drunken state.

"David," he answers simply and I see the look on his face. "I still don't like him."

"Luke…" I frown snuggling closer to him.

"You know-" hiccup, "I thought I was going to lose him to you?" he says then pausing like he was thinking, "Wait no, lose you to him, yeah that makes more since," he corrects. "I thought and still kinda do but I thought that if anyone could take you away from me it would be him and that's why I don't like him," he tells me and for once I see his real vulnerable side, the side that doesn't show too much but tonight I definitely see it.

"No one can take me away from you," I brush my hand through his hair, trying to tam it a little. "You never need to worry about that," I promise and he gets this little smile. "You ok?" I question and he nods leaning down and kissing my lips, his mood quickly changing.

"Mmm…" I feel his lips hum against mine; he doesn't stay kissing my lips, his lips trail down to my neck, sucking hard before going to my chest and down my stomach.

"Luke," I giggle a little running my hand through his hair.

"I missed you tonight," he nibbles a little on my skin as his hand push up my shirt.

"I missed you too," I grin as his kisses go lower and lower before stopping at the top of my shorts. "Luke…" my heart races faster. "God…" I bite my bottom lip as he peels the shorts down and dips his head back down. And as soon as his tongue makes contact with me I feel a shot of heat shoot through my entire body. "Uhh…" I moan running my hands over my face as my hips arch towards him. "Luke, baby shit!" I groan biting down hard on my bottom lip, digging my nails in his head.

I feel my body start to shake, the heat taking over me over and the feeling slowly takes over my whole body making me have to bit my bottom lip so I don't scream with the way it makes me feel.

"Lucas," I pull him up to kiss me. "I love you," kiss, "need you," kiss, "and god damn it I want you so bad," I confess my hands moving down to his boxers.

"No," he shakes his head as I start kissing down his neck. "Drunk, I'm drunk," he admits and I just bit down on his neck. "When I'm better, so I actually-" he grips down on my hips pushing them back down away from him. "When I know what I'm doing."

"It felt like you knew what you were doing," I rake my nails in his sides making him hiss in my ear.

"But I remember, I'm not going to remember anything in the morning," he confesses. "Moment," he kisses my collar bone and tugs on my skin. "You are in the moment and not being Brooke, you aren't ready."

"Ok," I agree thinking maybe our first time together again he shouldn't be drunk and it maybe the moment and it maybe because he is a damn good of a kisser, but with his body rocking against mine and his hands running over my body I can't help that I want him.

"We will wait," he brings his kiss back up to my lips and his tongue dives into my mouth as I nod. I mean we maybe going slow and I maybe not ready for having sex right now but what we have done so far is fine and us making out is more than fine with me. I could kiss him all night.


"Ugh!" I hear my boyfriend groan as I move around my room.

"Time to get up Boyfriend," I slam my hand on his butt making him kick at me.

"Go away," he mumbles grabbing my pillow and covering his face. "I don't want to get up, I want to sleep."

"Well I want to have a super model boyfriend and a million dollars in my back account but that doesn't seem to be happening does it?" I tease placing my hands on my hips.

"You're not even a little funny," he lifts his head to look at me, his eyes red and droopy.

"Luke," I slip over to the bed and climb up next to him. "We are going to be leaving soon and I told ya'll not to go out last night," I shrug and he growls at me. "Baby," I lay down next to him, wiggling my body close, "We got to go," I run my hand over his cheek.

"But I feel terrible, my head hurts really bad," he whines making me try hard not to laugh.

"But just think," I take his hand and bringing it to my lips. "You get a week's worth of me and you, no distractions on a beach and me in a barely covered bikini," I smirk biting a little on his finger.

"Oh baby, I'm hung over and possible still a little drunk don't do that to me," he pleads, watching my mouth as it plays with his finger.

"I'm not doing anything," I grin taking his finger and dragging it down my bottom lip. "You can sleep the whole car ride," I promise, kissing lower on his finger and towards his hand. "I'll take care of you the whole ride, promise."

"Yeah?" he keeps watching my hand, his eyes slowly getting a little life back into them.

"Yeah," I bring my leg up my knee rubbing against his lower half.

"Brooke…" he groans grabbing my knee and making me giggle.

"You going to get up?" I ask removing my knee.

"I guess," he shrugs, licking his bottom lip as I still play with his finger. "I swear baby you are going to be the death of me."

"Well you are more of a tease then me," I giggle locking my teeth on his finger.

"How do you come up with that?" he tries to kink his brow but I guess only being one three hours of sleep and hung over he fails.

"Because you see Boyfriend you came home extremely loving last night," I tease getting tingles just thinking about it.

"What you mean?" he wonders aloud and I just grin leaning in kissing him, sorta liking he doesn't remember his night.

"Get dressed, I'll get you some coffee," I skip off the bed.

"Hey, what you mean?" he calls as I shrug walking towards the door, "I swear you drive me crazy Brooke Davis!" I hear him yell before I shut the door laughing and heading to get him something for his headache.


"Ya'll are dumbasses," Nathan comments as we load up the car, Tony and Lucas leaning against the car, sunglasses on and coffee in their hand.

"Ugh," both mumble at him taking a sip.

"Why get smashed when you have to drive hours the next day?" he wonders what we all do but they again just growl at him. "Well Tony you are still stuck driving," he says tossing a bag onto the rack and again getting a growl.

"Oh Boyfriend and Brother," I tease pushing my glasses up on the top of my head. "It won't be that bad, just think ten hours of driving, in a crammed hot car with twist and turns."

"You know I really don't even like her," Tony looks over at Lucas through their dark sunglasses.

"Yeah me neither," he agrees. "I may just break up with her now."

"I agree," Tony and Lucas at the same time take a sip of their coffee and I can't help but laugh.

"Oh I love you both!" I grin, giving both a big kiss on the cheek and again making them growl.

"Come on guys let's get in," Haley waves her hands climbing in the passenger seat.

"Whoa what you doing up there?" Nathan asks as everyone files in.

"Your girl gets car sick," Rachel explains climbing into the back seat. "So for the next ten hours we are going to become best friend Natey," she smirks lounging in the back. "Hope you don't take up to much room," she winks pulling out a pillow and head phones.

"Looks like I won't really have any," he grumbles climbing in the back seat or the car. Rachel laughing and him pouting.

"Tony," I toss the keys so glad big brother finally has his licenses back, it might have taken six months but big brother can now legally drive again, watch out world. "Ready Broody?" I look over at Lucas who is still just standing outside the car.

"I guess," he shrugs pushing off and climbing in the middle sections of the car, body stretched out across them.

"Ok," I slide my purse in front of the seat and then climb in cuddling against my boyfriend.

"Ten hours of this?" He looks down at me and I nod resting my head on his chest. "I think I can handle that," he kisses the top of my head and rests his head on my pillow I brought, his arm wrapping around my body.

"Me too," I grin closing my eyes, me too still wanting more sleep. I feel as Tony starts the car, the music playing slowly throughout the car and the small chitter chatter of everyone yet it doesn't seem to bother me. All I am concentrating on is the week ahead, the seven days of just relaxing on the beach and the boy with me, the boy whose arms are tight around me and the boy whose heart beat is relaxing me and slowly putting me back to sleep.


All the reviews last chapter were great! I never thought I would get that many for one chapter. I do like that I always seem to update with the make up right when ya'll are completely ready and not wanting anymore fighting or anything. Like you all seem to love the angst to a point and when you hit that point that chapter is the angst free! Its like we are all on the same page hehe. Though I am still on the fence about the sequel I am not on the fence about updating this chapter. More of some fluff, actually the rest of the story will be lovey fluff but still the sexual tension between them that everyone loves. I don't know when I will update again but I thought since I got so much feedback last chapter I owed ya'll a quick update.

I am pretty exhausted and didn't send this chapter off to get read over before updating so please ignore any mistakes..

Well I hope you enjoy and like always please review!
