Disclaimer: I do not own any of the characters except for James. If I did own the shows I wouldn't be writing Fan Fiction about it.

A/N: Thank you for your kind reviews. Especially I-Cant-Think-Of-A-Name-Lol, you gave me a great idea for this chapter.

Chapter Twelve

Surprise

Brooke lay awake in a twin bed in Dawn's bedroom thinking about the recent events in her life. Everything had started when Dawn came to Tree Hill. She had made things interesting. She had gone to the airport with her mom and dad and was expecting to hate this person because of who she was related to. But she didn't at all. She had become close with Dawn. Just as close as she was with Peyton or even Lucas. When Dawn came she had been having a dream. It occurred every night until two weeks ago. What unnerved her was the fact that the dream wasn't a dream but that it had actually happened. What made Brooke sad was the fact that when Buffy, Dawn's sister, came back she didn't contact her. Brooke could tell that even though Dawn hid she was still mourning her sister's death. She still had still felt guilty that she was alive and her sister wasn't. But now her sister is alive and Dawn was terrified to see her again. Dawn didn't have to tell her how she felt. Brooke just knew. From the one time that she met Buffy she could tell that Buffy was terrified of seeing Dawn. So they avoided each other at all costs. Brooke also over heard Spike and Buffy go at it early today. But Dawn didn't hear and Brooke counted her lucky stars that she didn't because if she weren't a wreck now she would be if she heard the fight. Brooke was tired of feeling everyone else's pain. So she slipped out of bed and slipped into some jeans and Lucas's hoody. The super market was deserted so she would go and steal some alcohol. When she got to the front door she saw everyone was asleep. So she opened the door and was about to step out.

"Where do you think you're going?"

Brooke spun around and found Spike leaning against a wall.

"To the super market," replied Brooke, pretending like he didn't scare her half to death.

"What do you need there love? We got food and drinks here," Spike explained motion towards the kitchen.

"Not the kind of drink I'm looking for," mumbled Brooke.

"Oh is that what you're after. Let me just grab my coat pet and we'll be on our way."

Brooke looked at him confused.

"I haven't had a good drink since a couple weeks ago. I need one," Spike explained.

Brooke nodded. Spike got his famous black leather jacket from downstairs and they left. When they got to the super market it was completely deserted and trashed. But they found what they were looking for. Brooke and Spike were putting all the alcohol they could carry in bags.

"Should have know I'd find you here," a new voice said.

Brooke recognized that voice instantly. She placed her bag on the shelf and spun around.

"Lucas," squealed Brooke.

Brooke ran over and into Lucas's arms.

"Glad to see you too," Lucas, whispered.

A/N: More Lucas next chapter. And also another character who wasn't in the final series is coming back to help with the fight. Can you guess who it is? You have until Saturday to guess.
