Ok judging from you guys reviews I have to say, you way underestimate how big of a Brucas I actually am. Do you really think I am going to let something bad happen to them? lol I am like the biggest Brucas ever. I am the girl who threw things at the TV when they broke up and fun stuff like that. Don't worry! I am just trying to add some drama. This story is a Brucas and it will stay a Brucas! I promise! Please review and let me know what you think!
"So what was that?" Peyton laughed pulling Brooke out of the mall.
"Nothing... He's just a friend from school" Brooke said getting annoyed with this conversation before it was even started good. What was wrong with her having a friend that was a guy? Lucas had Haley and Peyton didn't ever blow that out of proportion.
"He was totally flirting with you" Peyton smiled. She was acting just like they use to in high school when Brooke would fall for some random guy.
"So does every other guy that I meet. That doesn't mean I am into them. In fact that is precisely why I fell for Luke... He didn't flirt, he was just him. Now can we please talk about something else?" Brooke whined throwing her bags in the back of her car.
"Ok like what? Oh Wait I got it, Brooke Davis what do you want to be when you grow up" Peyton laughed
"You know good and well it's Brooke Scott and I don't know yet. Let me grow up first and I'll tell you!" Brooke giggled
"Oh come on! You have to have some idea, even Emma knows what she wants to be"
"But those are little girl dreams...She will change her mind 100 times, you know that" Brooke said pulling out of the mall parking lot.
"True... but I don't remember you having little girl dreams... Did you?" Peyton asked. The mood had changed quickly from funny to serious.
"Yes... I wanted to be a pole dancer, Hey! Maybe I still do" Brooke laughed
"Brooke, come on be serious! You're not that same crazy girl who was only interested in hooking up with random guys and bar hopping. You've changed so much"
"I had too Peyton. Besides do people ever really change?"
Lucas drove into the driveway the same time as the pizza man. He could see from the car that every light in the house was on, probably Peyton's doings. He didn't mind having her here to stay with them it just worried him that he didn't know how long she was going to be there. There was only so much Peyton he could take. Plus he really didn't like having to share Brooke. He had gotten use to having her all to himself over the past few months and now Peyton wanted to spend every waking moment with her.
"Hey Handsome! We're having a pizza party," Brooke said kissing him as he walked into the house.
"With every light in the house on?" Lucas laughed
"We got scared, how was your day?"
"Long... nerve racking, the game is in 3 days so practice sucked" Lucas complained.
"You'll do great, and become pro and then find some hot blonde professional cheerleader with fake boobs to marry. Sound good?" Brooke laughed
"Hot blonde huh? I could do that... How about you? You'll find some rich lawyer who is never home" Lucas said pulling her over to the couch
"More to my self then" Brooke whispered kissing him
"Daddy!" Emma yelled running down the stairs
"And real life calls... Hey Emmy" Lucas said pulling Emma up onto the couch with him and Brooke
"I going to be 3!" Emma said grinning holding up 3 fingers
"And I'm going to be 20" Lucas laughed
"You old... I no have enough fingers" Emma giggled
"Old? Where's Peyton?" Lucas asked tickling Emma making her squeal with laughter
"No... Tickle... Daddy" Emma shrieked
"Excuse me... Pizza?" A man yelled from the door
"Right" Brooke laughed putting her hand in Lucas's back pocket to take his wallet
Brooke paid for the pizza and served it on plates while Lucas went upstairs to see Austin with Emma. It was only 7:45 and she was about to drop she was so tried. She knew Lucas had to be feeling the same way because he had gotten even less sleep than she had last night. As tried as she was she was glad that their relationship wasn't lacking in the sex department. The day that she and Lucas decided sex wasn't an important part of their relationship was the day that they were done for.
"Hey Brooke... Need any help?" Peyton asked walking into the kitchen
"Nope... we're ready! Where's Lucas?"
"Upstairs torturing your children. Their having some kind of pillow fight or something" Peyton laughed
"Right, They do that every night when he gets home. It wears them out before bed. Sadly for me it wears Lucas out too" Brook whined
"That's all you think about isn't it? You haven't changed a bit Brooke Davis Scott" Peyton laughed hitting Brooke on the shoulder
"Of course not! Why would I do a crazy thing like that?" Brooke giggled
Everyone ate pizza and relayed the events of the day. Lucas told them about practice and how he was excused for class until after the game because it was the most important game of the season. Brooke whined and complained that that wasn't fair, and that she was going on strike from class too. Peyton joined in every once in a while but obviously had something else on her mind so she was pretty quiet.
"So Broody, I've been thinking... we need a maid" Brooke said as she loaded the dishwasher
"We have Peyton..." Lucas laughed throwing a dishtowel at her
"Peyton's more of a Nanny. Emma and Austin love her and it gives me a nice break"
"No telling what she has been teaching those 2" Lucas said rolling his eyes
"More what they have been teaching her. Peyton was always kinda slow when it came to stuff like that" Brooke laughed. Peyton was probably the only person in the world that had to have Sex explained to her 5 times just by Brooke. There was no telling who else she had asked too
Brooke jumped at the sound of the doorbell shattering a dish on the tile floor.
"Hey, you ok?" Lucas asked running over to help
"I told you we were scared, who the hell is at the door?" Brooke said trying to laugh
"You get it, I'll clean this up" Lucas said pulling her shaking hands away from the floor
"Fine, but if it is some kind of mass murderer you are going to regret sending you helpless wife to answer the door"
"Brooke Scott helpless? I'll believe it when I see it" Lucas yelled after her
Brooke walked through the living room to the entrance hall and unlocked the door. She couldn't imagine who was at the door at this time of night. Maybe they won a million dollars.
"Brooke dear, it' us" A woman yelled
"Us who? Like a murderer us or a group of porn star's us?"
"Us as in your parents" Her father yelled
"Murderer it is" Brooke said walking away from the door leaving them outside in the cold
"Brooke... You unlocked the door! We're coming in, we brought company" Her mother said cheerily
"Great!" Brooke yelled slamming the two French doors that connected the living room to the entrance hall
"Brooke... what are you wearing? That is no way to greet guest" Her father yelled seeing Brooke in her skimpy pajamas
"Lucas! You have com" Brooke started but stopped once she saw who her parents had brought with them. Victor and what looked like Victor's parents.
"What the hell are they doing here?"
"We just wanted to introduce them to you, I though Victor told you" Her father laughed
"No...He forgot that little detail"
"I am so sorry Mr. Davis! We must have had a miscommunication! I thought that you were going to tell her" Victor said acting shocked.
"Well we're here now" Her mother smiled leading them into the living room
"Emma, Austin, come with Mommy! Who wants to eat some cookie dough and play in the flour?" Brooke asked pulling the two toddlers away from the TV into the kitchen where Lucas was still picking up glass
"What's wrong?" Lucas asked seeing Brooke's frazzled look. She had on her worried face, the exact same face she had had on when they had found out about Emma and when she had told him she was pregnant with Austin.
"Wait, your not pregnant are you?"
"Lucas! No, My parents are here along with that guy from my class and his parents..."
Austin was getting restless now tugging on Brooke's legs
"I have to change!" Brooke said realizing what she was wearing. This was just like her parents... They couldn't just leave her alone; they had to intrude at the worst possible times
"Brooke dear..." Her mother called
"Brooke... Calm down, you go change and I'll take Emma and Austin in there to entertain them. What's more entertaining then 2 toddlers?"
"Right... Thank you, thank you, thank you!" Brooke said giving him a quick kiss on the cheek the running up to their room to change.
Lucas walked with Emma and Austin to the living room where the 5 people were sitting. 4 of them were older, the women wearing mink coats and the men smoking cigars. The 5th one Lucas thought must have been the one from Brooke's class.
"Hey, You can't smoke those in here"
"Ah, Markus" Brooke's father said standing up to shake his hand
"It's Lucas"
"These must be my grandbabies! Come to Grandmamma" Brooke's mother chuckled in excitement
"Your not Meme" Emma said pointing her finger that at the woman giving her "the" look. This didn't surprise Lucas at all though; she had seen Brooke do it enough she was bound to pick it up sometime
"No, I am your grandmamma! Come here to me Anna"
"Who Anna?" Emma turned and asked Lucas
"It's Emma and that's Austin"
"Aren't they a little young to have children?" Victor's father asked
"You see, our dear sweet daughter Brooke along with her sexually confused friend Lucas here found these children in a trashcan some time ago. Some druggie had left them their to die. The children became so attached to Brooke and Lucas the courts decided to let them raise them" Brooke's mother said smiling but giving Lucas a look that could kill.
"That is the sweetest thing I have ever heard!" Victor's mother said almost in tears
"I wasn't bornded in a twashcan!" Emma said scrunching her nose up and putting her little hands on her hips. She did that whenever she got mad.
Lucas didn't know what to say. In just a few short seconds he had gone from Brooke's husband to Brooke's sexually confused friend, and his children were now products of some druggie who didn't want them. This was going to be an interesting night.
"Mama!" Austin squealed running over to Brooke as she walked into the room.
"See what I mean, attached" Brooke's mother smiled
"Hey baby boy, what's going on Luke?" Brooke asked picking up a whining Austin.
"Oh, nothing much. Your mother was just telling everyone the story of how we were out picking up guys one day together, you know because I am gay. And we found our children in a dumpster"
"Daddy! Your not gay" Emma giggled
"Lucas? Did they slip you something?"
"No, but if they did they must have gotten it from Emmy and Austin's real parents" Lucas laughed
"Mother... Lucas is not gay! Do you know how I know that? I have sex with him like 5 times a week! Emma and Austin... Not dumpster babies! We had sex too young and I got pregnant! Twice! Get that through your rich selfish stubborn head!"
"Our Brooke, She even came up with a story to tell the children when they are older so that they would not have to be damaged from this incident. A story that put her reputation on the line! Just so that these children could grow up with a normal life." Brooke's father said wiping a fake tear from his cheek
"She is such a sweet girl!" Victors mother said now bawling.
"I agree" Victor said sounding choked up
"I did not find these children in a dumpster! I do remember having them, considering childbirth is not something you forget! My god Luke and I are still paying the medical bills!" Brooke yelled
"Calm down dear, we understand you don't want the children to know the truth. We wont talk of it anymore and damage their small brains. We would be happy to help you with any medical bill that they need. And son, any therapy you might need to help you with your sexual confusion we would be happy to get it for you" Victor's father said pulling out his checkbook.
"We don't need money...and Lucas is not gay!" Brooke said taking Emma's hand and stomping off, Lucas following her.
"She doesn't want charity! She is so brave! Victor, she is the one we want you to marry" Victor's father said
Brooke stomped up the stairs to Austin's room where Peyton was cleaning up some of his toys.
"Hey, what was all the yelling about? You and Lucas having a fight?"
"Can you do me a favor and put him to bed? I have to go and deal with my parents" Brooke said handing her Austin
"Yea, sure... Emma too?"
"No, I have to go and explain to her that she wasn't found in a dumpster... Night Austin, Love you" Brooke said kissing the baby on the cheek
"Right, whatever" Peyton laughed
Lucas waited in Emma's room for Brooke. She was most likely really pissed off right now and he wasn't sure she should be the one to put Emma to bed. But he also didn't want to be the one who told her not too.
"Alright Emmy, Sleepy time" Brooke said storming into her room
"Who was that?" Emma asked crawling into her bed with Bella.
"That is the lady who wants to kill Santa Claus"
"Kwill Santa?" Emma said starting to cry
"Mommy's just kidding... aren't you?" Lucas asked coaxing Brooke to agree with him
"Right, no one is going to kill Santa... Now sweetie you know we didn't find you in a dumpster right?"
"Yes... I was a supwise" Emma giggled
"Yes you were! The best surprise ever! Next order of business... Daddy is not gay" Brooke laughed
"No, defiantly not gay" Lucas agreed
"I know"
"Ok... good! Now you go to bed while Daddy and I go and cause some trouble! Night baby..." Brooke whispered kissing Emma on the forehead.
"Aright Will, you ready to go do some damage?"
"If you say so Grace"
Peyton laid Austin in his crib and turned out his light. He had changed so much since she had last seen him. His hair was blonde just like Lucas's. He also had those big brown eyes that made your heart melt whenever you saw them. The same eyes that had made her melt when she had first met Lucas. Really met him. He was totally into her and she had been into Nathan, or at least she thought she had. Sometimes she would sit and wonder what would have happened if she had never given him the chance to get to Brooke. Maybe they would have a life together. There were so many maybes and what ifs that it made her head hurt. Not counting the fact that Brooke was her best friend and Lucas was her husband. That just made the whole situation worse.
Brooke and Lucas walked downstairs back to the living room where everyone was laughing and talking.
"Your back, are those sweet little children asleep?" Brooke's mother asked
"Why are you here?" Brooke asked back completely ignoring her question
"What do you mean dear?"
"You know good and well what I mean mother" Brooke said sitting down next to Lucas
"You didn't tell the girl? We want to set you and Victor up" Victors mother laughed
"What!" Both Brooke and Lucas yelled
"Well you are both such sweet kids and you are so much alike! We think you would make a great couple"
"Your going to have to talk to Lucas about that one" Brooke laughed
"Why is that dear? Is he your keeper?" Victor's mother asked
"No, but he is my husband"
"They, they had to get married to adopt the children!" Brooke's mother said quickly
"No, we got married because we love each other and we have 2 beautiful children, which we created by the way"
"I think it is time we leave, Ladies..." Brooke's father said standing up and pointing the way out
All 5 of the filed out one behind the other.
"Bye Brooke Scott" Victor smiled on his way out
They walked towards their car chattering to themselves about the night's events.
"I have to say that is one sweet girl, so she is married Vic, There is such a thing as divorce" Victor's mother smiled
"Yes son because whatever Victor wants, Victor gets"
Brooke and Lucas sat on the couch both going over what had just happened in their heads
"Kill me now Luke" Brooke said lying back against Lucas
"At least your not gay" Lucas laughed
"I'm sorry! You didn't bargain for any of this, my parents or my drama"
"Brooke, we're married. Your drama is my drama remember?" Lucas asked taking her hand
"If you say so" Brooke laughed
"Now lets go sleep..."
Lucas woke up to find a note from Brooke beside him.
Gone to class, didn't want to wake you since you actually got some sleep last night. Peyton is up with the kids... Lets do lunch! Call my cell!
Love,
Cheery
It was written in hot pink ink with a lipstick kiss at the bottom. Classic Brooke. Her notes were always pretty and special. He slipped on his pants over his boxers and started walking down stair where Peyton was feeding Emma and Austin breakfast.
"Daddy! Peyton make us eggs" Emma giggled
"Yes, according to your daughter all they get to eat is ice cream! Lucas that is horrible!" Peyton laughed
"Emma, you trader! We use to make you Bacon and eggs remember?" Lucas asked
"BackyEggs" Emma giggled
"Yea, yea you just better be glad your mother isn't the one cooking. She would will us all" Lucas laughed.
"Why don't you make her take some cooking classes or something? I mean she is a wife, she should learn to cook"
"She's Brooke, she hates to cook and so do I. Besides... Since when can I make Brooke do anything?" Lucas laughed
"That's true" Peyton agreed helping Emma out of he chair so she could go and play with Austin
"So talk to me Luke"
"About what?" Lucas laughed
"Well things didn't sound pretty down stairs last night"
"Yea, Brooke's parents are just trying to cause problems"
"Brooke, she can't ever get away from the drama can she? I mean don't you just get tired of having to deal with it and pick her back up when its all over?" Peyton asked as she cleaned up the breakfast dishes
"She doesn't have that much drama, I mean it was my drama that almost got our children taken away from us. It doesn't get much worse than that" Lucas laughed
"Yea but don't you ever wonder what would have happened if she hadn't gotten pregnant? Do you think the two of you would still have ended up together?"
"Of course I wonder, I mean it wasn't my plan to turn 20 and have 2 kids but I don't regret it, any of it and I know for a fact that Brooke doesn't either. Brooke and I would have ended up together. Some things are just meant to be you know?" Lucas smiled. He wasn't quite sure what Peyton's deal was today. Maybe it was the whole Jake thing or maybe not but whatever it was it was making him uncomfortable to talk about.
"I'm just saying how do you know? I mean she is the only girl you have ever really been with... minus Nikki" Peyton said trying to get Lucas to think about it logically.
"Peyton, She is the only girl I needed to be with. I can't explain it, you just kind of know that they are the person you are suppose to spend your life with. If I hadn't been 100 sure of that I wouldn't have married her."
"That's funny, When I was talking to Jake before we broke up he asked me to close my eyes and picture the person I was suppose to spend my life with and I saw you" Peyton said with a tear running down her cheek.
"I thought you loved me, I mean you left Brooke for me"
"Because I wondered what if. You can't do that in life... When I did it I found out the thing I knew all along, that I loved Brooke. And that wondering almost cost me her and if it had then I probably wouldn't have been able to live with myself. Because of her I am happy, she helped my get over my Dan issues and be a good dad to my kids. If anything she is the one who picks me up all the time." Lucas said almost laughing.
"So there is no chance that you and I could, I mean she doesn't have to no Luke"
"Peyton, She would find out and even if she wouldn't, I couldn't ever do that to her again... Your just upset about Jake, I know I'm not the only reason you broke up with him" Lucas said taking her hand. She was crying now, her mascara running down her face.
"No, but you were a big part... He and I just weren't the same as we use to be."
"At the risk of sounding like a Hallmark card, so what? Brooke and I aren't the same at all as we use to be. But that doesn't mean we love each other any less if anything I love her more as she has grown" Lucas comforted
"But Luke, I haven't changed at all! I have spent the past 4 years watching you and Brooke live out your lives assuming that at some point you would realize that it was me that you really wanted. I think Jake finally realized that and so we started fighting a lot. Neither of us wanted to say anything so it just kept building up"
"But do you love him?"
Brooke looked at her watch to see it was already 12:30 and there was so no call from Lucas. Hopefully he was sleeping in because he really needed too. With his shoulder and the stress from the team sleeping was all he needed to do.
"Hey there Brooke Scott"
"Bite my ass Victor" Brooke whispered as she walked passed him
"Personally I would love too but I do think Lucas would have something to say about that don't you?" Victor chuckled.
"I though he was gay, so I guess he wouldn't have a problem with it"
"Look, I'm really sorry about last night. I had no idea it was going to be the way it was I swear! I didn't even know we were going to your house until we got there" Victor apologized walking fast to keep up with her.
"Sure" Brooke said plainly
"I am serious! Come on Brooke, do you really think I want to date you? I have a girlfriend and I don't think she would be too pleased with me" Victor pleaded
"Really what's her name?"
"Alicia" He lied
"Whatever"
"I am just going to keep following you until you forgive me... Come on Brooke! I like having you as a friend... Nothing more I swear" Victor said smiling his million-dollar smile
"And you will keep my parents and yours away from my house and my children and my Lucas?" Brooke insisted
"Your Lucas? Sure... Poof, No more parents"
"Ok fine whatever, just keep it in your stubborn little head that whatever game you are playing... I can play it that much better" Brooke said. She was just thankful that this semester was almost over and she hopefully wouldn't have to see him anymore.
"But your parents did have a point... You need more to your life than what you have now, you need to have direction"
"You couldn't just shut up could you?" Brooke asked
"I am serious? You have no idea what you want to do with your life do you?"
Lucas sat on the den floor and watched Dawson's Creek with Austin and Emma while Peyton used the phone to call Jake. He had no idea what she was going to tell him considering she hadn't ever answered his question. While she hadn't answered that one question Lucas had a million. Why hadn't she ever said anything to him about how she felt? Did Brooke know? Would Brooke tell him? Should he tell Brooke? His stress free day was turning into a big ball of issues that had to be worked out, hopefully before Brooke got home.
"Daddy... fas fowore it" Emma whined seeing Joey and Dawson fight
"I cant, it's on the real TV not the DVD player"
"Awson! Don't clap your hands... that's bad" Emma said pulling the little boys hands apart. But he kept doing it.
"Maybe he is a Joey, Pacey fan" Lucas laughed
"Oh Brother" Emma whined falling backwards against the couch cushion.
"Ok I am going to go call mommy... You 2 stay put" Lucas said walking in the kitchen and hitting speed dial on his cell phone.
"Hello?" Brooke answered
"Hey Cheery"
"Hey Broody... what happened?"
"Really long story... talk about it tonight?" Lucas asked
"Sure... Hey gotta go I'm at class. Kiss the babies for me! Love ya" Brooke said hanging up.
"Bye"
Lucas spent the rest of the day playing with Emma and Austin and waiting for Peyton to come out of her room. She was still in there when Brooke came home at 2:00.
"Hey Handsome, How was your day?" Brooke asked grabbing him around the neck and kissing him. That defiantly had to be her favorite past time. Maybe she could so that for a living.
"Interesting actually... Emma is mad because Austin is a Joey, Pacey fan" Lucas laughed
"Our son? Wow... I didn't see that one coming. So where are the kids?" Brooke asked leading him over to the couch
"Taking a nap"
"And Peyton?" Brooke asked running her fingers through his hair
"In her room..."
"Still stressed?" she asked kissing him
"You know they say sex is the best stress reliever"
"I know they do gorgeous..." Brooke giggled
"Ah, my mom was right... we are sex addicts" Lucas laughed as Brooke pulled him into their bedroom
"We're 19... what does she expect? Besides this is for your health, right?"
"Right... because I can't be stressed for the game" Lucas smiled
"Well then lets go get you unstressed"
Victor drove up to Brooke and Lucas's drive way.
"Yes Mrs. Davis, I'm here... I have the flowers ok I will call you and let you know... Bye"
