Blunderful Ballerina: Yep, she's quite the ruiner, lol.
OTHlover04: Thanks!
l-a-c-18: She isn't very nice, hah. Hopefully everything will turn out okay, but we all love drama.
Iloveoth: Here's the next chapter!
Christine: I'm sorry! I just needed to put some drama in…
Amanda: Screw Peyton, hehe.
Heavenleigh88: Thanks! People really hate Peyton, eh?
Duckygirl: Thanks, I'll try hard to make this chapter better!
Brucasfanatic101: Yes, Peyton has been acting bitchy. Don't worry, I'm pretty sure Lucas is pretty not happy with Peyton right now. Brooke and Kaylie have a special relationship, so even if Peyton and Lucas did get back together, Kaylie would be close to Brooke still. I'm making Peyton into this horrible person! No one likes her anymore!
Mommy, Mommy
Chapter 20 : Blonde Twisted Mind
Her eyes showed such pain. More pain then he'd seen when he'd first cheated on her.
"No," He answered calmly, "She kissed me."
Tears fell from Brooke's eyes as she tossed her arms up in the air. "Right."
"I swear!"
"Did you kiss her back?" Her eyes dug into his , begging honesty out of them.
He'd almost kissed her back. "No."
Brooke ran a hand absentmindedly through her hair. "If she hadn't left, you two would be together now."
Honesty was the best policy, Scott. "Probably. But it's not like that!"
"Luke, don't you see this pattern? I've always been your second choice!"
"That's not true, Brooke."
"Whatever."
"You went to see her?" "Yeah, and she asked me to step aside."
"The nerve she has." Lucas laughed bitterly, shaking his head.
"Everything is so messed up." Brooke choked out , feeling a fresh batch of tears form in her eyes.
"It doesn't matter what she does, Brooke. She can't tear us apart."
Brooke chewed on her lip thoughtfully, before letting her eyes meet with his. "I think I should go stay with Nathan and Haley for a while."
Now Lucas was fighting back tears, "No, you can't."
"It's for the best." She promised, heading up the stairs towards her and Lucas's bedroom.
"Brooke, I didn't do anything wrong!" He chased after her.
"You didn't tell me that she kissed you." Brooke was already tossing her stuff into her bag.
"Because I knew you'd be hurt!" Lucas defended himself, taking out the clothes she was putting into her bag.
"Like I'm not now."
"Brooke, please don't leave me." He begged, pulling her towards him and holding her as tight as he possible could.
Kaylie watched from the doorway, looking confused.
"It's just for now. I need to clear my head."
"I love you."
Brooke sighed. "I know."
And then she was gone.
"Mommy!" Kaylie cried out towards the front door.
"Brooke, you can stay here for as long as you want." Haley put a hand on her best friend's shoulder, still slightly shocked about the news of Peyton's arrival.
"Thanks, Hales."
"I still don't get why you're mad at Luke though." Nathan interrupted from the kitchen.
"Shut up and be sentimental, Nathan." Haley rolled her eyes at her husband.
"I'm not mad at him, Nate. I just need to figure some stuff out." Brooke shrugged.
"Have you spoken to him?" "No, I called but he didn't answer."
"I wonder what he could be doing?" Haley wondered out loud, as she fed Michael.
He'd been lucky that Karen had been able to baby-sit, otherwise he would have to do this with Kaylie.
He looked at the house that he'd been to so many years before, still not completely able to believe that Peyton could be so conniving.
He walked slowly towards the front door, and proceeded to knock.
When Peyton answered, a smile lit up her face. "Hey Luke! Did you bring Kaylie?"
His eyes darkened. "No. We need to talk."
Peyton opened the door wider. "Sure, come on in."
"Okay, what you did today with Brooke, was not cool." He told her after she had followed him into the house.
"I'm sorry, it's just that I thought she should know that I planned on winning you back."
That was it. That was the last straw. "You know what Peyton? I've got some news that you need to get through your twisted head. I don't want you, and I never will. What you did was horrible, and I admit , that If you hadn't left , things may have been different. But I can barely look at you without feeling anger, and I fell out of love with you the day you dropped my daughter off at my house. Notice how I say 'my' daughter. She'll never be yours. Oh, and Brooke and I are engaged to be married. I just thought you should know that."
She was crying.
He really truly didn't care.
"Lucas, I love you more then life."
"I've been waiting to hear those words forever from you, and now, I don't even know why." He told her before walking towards the door.
Anger boiled up inside of her. There had to be some way to get him back. Some way to get Kaylie.
And Brooke.
Brooke wouldn't even see what she had coming until it hit her.
