"So Lucas left you in charge of names..." Peyton said as she, Haley, and Brooke relaxed on Brooke's dad's boat.
"Yeah." Brooke nodded.
"What are you thinking about?" The blonde asked, zipping up her jacket.
"Not sure yet." Brooke shrugged.
"We should go get some baby name books." Haley said excitedly.
"Any excuse for tutor girl to get into a library..." Brooke joked.
"Hey!" Haley smiled and hit Brooke lightly on the arm.
Brooke stuck her tongue out at the brunette and signaled for the boat's captain to turn back to shore. "What names do you guys suggest?" Brooke asked curiously.
"Girl or boy?"
"Both."
"Hmm..." Haley mused, tapping her chin. "I think... Tyler and Michelle."
Brooke nodded and looked to Peyton. "Gavin for a boy and Fiona for a girl."
"Fiona, wasn't that-"
"My mom's name." Peyton answered quickly.
The rest of the trip went by quietly; each of the girls wrapped up in their own thoughts.
"So," Haley said as the three girls walked down the street loaded down with books, clothes, baby toys, and rocky road ice cream, Brooke's current craving. "How're things with you and Jake?"
Brooke smiled instantly at the mention of her boyfriend's name. "I think that answers that question." Peyton said nudging her best friend with an elbow.
Brooke nodded "He's different than any guy I've ever been with... Last night I caught him singing to Jenny and I just... melted."
"And..." Peyton urged.
"And what?"
"The sex." Peyton said simply, taking a bite out of her ice cream cone.
"Peyton!" Haley exclaimed.
"Relax tutor girl." Brooke grinned, "We haven't had sex yet."
"What?" Peyton asked stopping mid-stride. "You guys have been together for over two months and you haven't had sex yet?"
"It's not that unbelievable." Haley grumbled.
"It is for Brooke."
"Hey!"
"You know it's true, Brooke." Peyton said as they came up to her car. They loaded their purchases into the trunk and resumed the conversation when they were all settled inside.
"It's not like we've never been close..." Brooke said, grinning. "When Jake gets going... And I definitely want to. This one time we were so close, I mean clothes were thrown across the room, I found my bra behind that monstrosity he calls a couch, when Jake's mom came to drop Jenny off. They had spent the day together..."
"Jake's mom caught you?" Haley laughed.
"No, she didn't catch us. I was hiding in the kitchen. I really don't know what we're waiting for..."
"You're happy, aren't you?" Peyton asked after a minute's silence.
Brooke thought about it for a minute, and then broke out into a grin. "You know what? I think I really am... Wow."
"That makes two out of three." Haley said glancing at Peyton. "What about you Peyton?"
"Yeah Peyt," Brooke pushed "What about you?"
"I'm happy." Peyton said, but it sounded lame even to her.
"New mission." Brooke announced. "Find Peyton a man."
Haley laughed "Here here!"
"You guys-"
"There're a lot of potentials out there." Brooke said to Haley. The brunette nodded in agreement.
"What about Skills."
"Milk chocolate." Brooke nodded approvingly.
"Not my type." Peyton shook her head.
"Hmm... Mouth?"
"Tim." Brooke said. The three burst into laughter.
"Um, no."
"What'd you guys do today?" Jake asked as the three girls burst into the apartment, laughing. When he entered the living room and saw all the packages he shook his head and sighed. "Never mind."
"Hey." Brooke greeted her boyfriend with a quick kiss. "Would you mind taking these over to my apartment?"
"Sure." He kissed her again before grabbing some of the bags and heading across the hall.
"Aww!" Haley and Peyton teased in unison.
"So cute."
"Shut up!" Brooke grinned, "You guys are just jealous."
"Ha." Haley scoffed, "If Nate and I ever get like that, shoot me."
"I think it's too late for that, tutor girl."
"Hey!" Haley looked at Peyton for support.
"I'm with Brooke on this one." Peyton shrugged, going into the kitchen. "You guys hungry?"
"Just help yourselves." Jake said sarcastically as he entered the kitchen, Jenny settled contentedly on his right hip. The three looked up from their ice cream.
"Brooke forced me." Haley confessed. "I really didn't want ice cream, but it's all she'll eat."
"Forced you, my ass." Brooke said as the brunette polished of her bowl.
"Honestly, Brooke," Jake admonished, "You have to watch your language. Jenny could start talking any day. Do you want her first word to be ass?"
"That really wouldn't go down well with his mom." Peyton smirked.
"My mom?" Jake asked, doubly confused when Brooke started blushing. "What- you told them!"
"I-" Brooke was cut off when her cell phone rang. "Hello?"
"Brooke Rebecca Davis, where the hell are you?"
"Dad?"
