You're Still the One by Shania Twain…and only three more chapters left! I think I'm doing the sequel but I'm gonna need ideas! I have no storyline planned! Idea machines, get going! Lol…and updates would be way less frequent, so I'm still sleeping on it…

"I don't want to fly" Madison whined.

"I know, baby doll, I know" Brooke said. They were flying to New York City for Christmas with the entire family, including Jake, Peyton, Jenny, Catherine, Alexis, and Matthew.

"Mommy I hate airplanes" Madison got a scared look on her face and buried her head in Brooke's shoulder.

"Princess, its ok" Lucas said, rubbing her back. "Mommy and daddy are with you…don't worry baby"

"Daddy…it rocky"

"It's gonna be rocky, sweetie, but you'll be ok…I'm here" Madison whimpered and climbed into Lucas's arms. He hugged her close to him and she buried her head in his chest with her teddy bear.

"My poor baby…she really doesn't like flying" Brooke said.

"I know" Lucas said. "I wish I could do something but first class is the best you can get"

"Yah…hey Maddie you ok so far?" she nodded uncertainly and kept her head buried in Lucas's chest.

"Maddie, you wants to plays patty cake?" Catherine asked. Madison shook her head no.

"Sweetie I think she's a little scared" Brooke explained.

"Oh"

"Are you gonna have fun in New York City, Madison?" Lucas asked.

"Uh huh" she answered.

"You get to see snow!" Brooke said enthusiastically.

"I's get to make a snowman?"

"No baby the snow in the city is icky and dirty"

"Oh…that's no fun!"

"I know…oh well" Brooke said, taking Madison into her arms. "But we can go skating and see the huge Christmas tree and watch the crystal ball fall on New Years Eve! And then we'll be in the New Year!"

"Does they haves a Target?"

"I don't know baby, probably not in the city"

"That's silly; everyone has to haves a Target!"

"Well I think they survive without the Target" Madison gasped loudly at that notion and shook her head.

"I's feel sorry for them"

"As do I, baby" Brooke laughed, exchanging amused looks with Lucas. Madison was a character.

"Where we staying?"

"Plaza Hotel, the best, where else?" Haley laughed.

"I know…our husbands..." Peyton shook her head.

"Well sorry if we wanna provide the best for our families" Jake said.

"Yah!" Nathan and Lucas agreed.

"I'm not complaining…" Brooke giggled. "I enjoy being able to spend buckets of money"

"True that" Haley muttered. "And I can't wait to go baby shopping!"

"What's your theme for this year?"

"Well if it's a girl…I dunno, I always liked teddy bears and things but if it's a boy, Nathan can choose"

"Dude, basketball" Nathan said.

"But that's Anthony's theme" Alexis said.

"So? I settle for father of two prodigious basketball players"

"Or the father of one prodigious basketball player and little princess" Brooke added in. "It has to be that way! I want my next baby to be a boy"

"But mommy I wants a sister" Madison piped up.

"No you don't" Jenny giggled from the other end of the row.

"Hey!" Catherine said. Jenny giggled again.

"I's wants a sister, believes me…boys are icky"

"I's icky?" Anthony asked.

"Not yous" Madison said.

"Oh" The adults were having a good time listening to the conversation going on between the three little kids.

"Hey, Brooke, you really want the next baby to be a boy?" Lucas asked, smiling.

"Yah!" Brooke said. "A baby boy!"

"Ooh…well here comes my basketball player!"

"Hey Broody, I'm not pregnant yet and wont be for a while so hold your horses"

"I's wants a sister, mommy" Madison informed Brooke importantly.

"It would be fun to have another little princess, wouldn't it?"

"Yahs! I we could dress her ups and make her prettyful"

"And she'd be another spoiled daddy's girl" Lucas added in.

"No, I's your girl…I want a baby brother, mommy" Madison changed her mind. Brooke giggled.

"I'll do my best" Brooke laughed.

"Oh my gosh, Lucas! This is wonderful!" Brooke exclaimed, seeing their Plaza Hotel suite.

"Anything to make Christmas magical" Lucas said, wrapping his arms around Brooke and kissing her.

"Mommy…daddy…ew" Madison said.

"Maddie…people kiss…a lot, actually" Brooke giggled, picking up the little girl and hugging her tightly. "Mama's baby…are you having fun?"

"Yes! My room has a TVs!"

"It does?" Lucas asked, pretending to look shocked.

"Yah!" Madison giggled, tugging Lucas pants in indication for him to pick her up. He picked her up and she giggled. "We gets to go skating?"

"Yah, we do…Rockefeller center" Lucas said.

"Uh Broody…one problem" Brooke said, pulling Lucas aside.

"What, baby?"

"I can't ice skate" Brooke confessed, biting her lip. Lucas burst out into laughter. "Lucas, it's not funny!" Brooke said. "All the kids in third grade made fun of me when I couldn't skate at Muriel Sanchez's party"

"Aw Brooke, I'm sorry" Lucas said, trying to contain laughter. "I'll teach you…me and Madison'll teach you how"

"How on earth will Madison teach me…she knows how to ice skate?"

"Yah me and Nathan taught her one day while you were out shopping…she's a natural"

"That girl is good at everything on the planet!"

"That's cause she's mine" Lucas said, grabbing Brooke and pulling her into a kiss.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Nathan…its ok" Haley laughed. Nathan had an extremely worried look on his face and was pacing up and down.

"But the doctor…"

"The doctor didn't say I couldn't skate, honey" Haley laughed. "Besides, I LOVE skating"

"Couldn't it hurt the baby?"

"No, it will not hurt the baby, sweetheart…you're so overprotective, it's cute"

"Haley…I just wanna be sure"

"Mommy can skates daddy lets GO!" Anthony whined, grabbing his hand and pulling him. Nathan picked Anthony up and swung him over his shoulder.

"You, my little monster, need to be quiet" Nathan laughed, tickling Anthony. Anthony shrieked with laughter and then regained his breath.

"Daddy, lets go, Maddie and Kitty are waiting!"

"God you are so their older brother…give me and Lucas and Jake a run for our money, huh?" Nathan laughed, taking Haley's manicured hand in his warmly and walking out. He suddenly turned her around and kissed her. Haley giggled.

"Mistletoe" he explained.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Jenny…Catherine…put on your coats"

"But mommy…" Catherine protested.

"Yah mom…" Jenny said.

"No, Jennifer Elizabeth and Catherine Allison, put on your coats right now!" Peyton said firmly.

"Mama…" they both whined. "It's so dorky!" Jenny complained.

"Jenny, I don't care, I will not have you or Catherine catching pneumonia!"

"Girls, listen to your mother" Jake laughed. Grumbling and complaining, Catherine and Jenny put on their huge brown coats.

"I love them, I do" Peyton laughed. Jake laughed and kissed Peyton.

"Mistletoe" he explained.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Ok, so what's the plan of action?" Andy asked.

"Well, we were thinking we could go visit the Hershey's store and then go skating at the Rockefeller center" Haley said.

"Sounds good to me" Andy said. "Limos are waiting outside" Everyone nodded and followed him out to the limos. They did what they always did…the girls and kids in one limo and the guys in the other…everyone preferred it that way.

"Ok, cutie pies, are you read to skate?" Haley asked the kids.

"I's gonna be an ice princess!" Madison giggled

"You are, baby?" Brooke asked.

"Yahs! I'm gonna twirly around" Madison said.

"Hey Maddie…can mommy tell you a secret?" Brooke asked. Madison nodded her head and leaned in closer. "Mommy cant ice skate…can you teach me?"

"Yahs! I's gonna be a goods teacher"

"Ok, baby" Brooke laughed, letting Madison climb into her lap. "Are you sure you're gonna be ok? If you don't feel good at any time, come right off the ice, ok?"

"Ok mama" Madison said.

"God you two are like from an after school special" Peyton giggled.

"Hey you told me and Catherine to put on our coats so we wouldn't catch pneumonia!" Jenny laughed.

"Ooh…P. Sawyer, look what you did…you ran one of the typical mom lines…guess we're all getting old" Brooke sighed dramatically.

"Well don't you have a flair for the dramatic, B. Davis…you're older than me"

"By three months!"

"That's still older" Peyton said.

"Hey, I'm older than both of you" Haley butted in.

"You certainly act it too" Brooke said. "Tutor mommy"

"Hey, I'm the oldest of you ALL" Karen laughed.

"Good point…I'd be depressed if I was your age" Brooke said.

"Thanks Brooke"

"No problem, Karen" Brooke giggled.

Meanwhile in the guys' limo….

"Dude, what did you get Peyton and Brooke for Christmas?" Nathan asked.

"Well Brooke like always loves something romantic" Lucas said. "So another pink glimmery glittery necklace and she'll be ok" he laughed.

"Dude, I gave Peyton like a pocketbook and some diamond crap…she's not into that whole candlelit dinner thing"

"Oh Brooke's a sucker for that stuff…and I mean I enjoy doing it for her, nothing makes her happier…anything for my girl, right?"

"I haven't done anything for Karen in so long…maybe I should take her out to dinner"

"Ugh…I don't wanna hear about my parents being romantic" Lucas groaned. Andy laughed and Nathan and Jake patted Lucas on the back.

"We're at the Hershey's store, sir" the driver announced.

"Thanks man" Lucas said, climbing out of the limo.

"Daddy we at the Hershey's store!" Madison giggled. "I's love chocolate!"

"That's great…go get what you want" Lucas said, kissing her and putting her down.

"Great…let three children loose in a candy store called Hershey's" Haley said. "Cause THAT wont destroy your teeth"

"Oh come ON tutor wife…tutor mommy-to-be…I have a serious craving for chocolate, you must too, you're the pregnant one!" Brooke giggled, grabbing Haley's hand and dragging her up. "Oh my god P. Sawyer look a giant bottle of Hershey's syrup!"

"Brooke, no, no, no" Peyton ran after Brooke, who was in hot pursuit of the man with the big bottle of Hershey's.

"Hey…" Brooke sidled up to the old, bald man.

"Hello yourself, pretty miss…what can I do for you?" he asked mischievously.

"May I have that huge bottle of Hershey's syrup?"

"Why would I do that?"

"Well…" Brooke said, putting on her best crying face. "My little baby, her dying wish was to die with a bottle of Hershey's syrup and I promised my girl the biggest bottle out there"

"Oh…I'm sorry, here" the man handed it to her.

"This is empty"

"Of course its empty" the man laughed. "You expected it to be full?"

"Yah!" Brooke said indignantly. He shook his head and took his credit card out of his pocket. Peyton was holding back tears of laughter but grabbing onto the stands to stop herself from bursting into hysterical laughter. Lucas and Madison were sharing a quiet laugh and Brooke looked positively mad.

"Lucas Eugene Scott! Do not laugh at me! And Madison Caitlin Scott! Don't laugh at me either!" Brooke said, trying to contain laughter herself.

"Mommy…you're so funny" Madison giggled. Brooke burst out laughing and everyone just laughed for a little while before heading out with their purchases.

"Shall we skate?" Andy said.

"We shall skate" Brooke giggled, tightening her grip around Lucas's arm. When they got to the skate place, and got their skates on, Brooke wouldn't go on the ice.

"Brooke, you have to go!"

"Come on B. Davis…carpe diem! Seize the day, sister!" Haley yelled, spinning around three times on the edge of blade.

"Easy for you to say, Ice Princess!" Brooke said sarcastically. "I've never done this before!"

"I don't care…come on!" Lucas urged, kissing her. "You'll be fine"

"Fine, but if you let go of me for one second, Lucas Scott, you are a very, very divorced man"

"Ok, I wont let go of you" Lucas said reassuringly. "Come on Maddie, grab mommy's other hand"

"Okays!" she said, clomping over to grab Brooke's hand. "Its okays, mommy, you'll be an ice princess soon"

"Thanks baby doll" Brooke giggled, stepping onto the ice. Immediately, she almost fell.

"I got you" Lucas said, picking her back up. Brooke sighed and slid her feet back and forth on the ice.

"Yous okay, mommy, try it a little fasters" Brooke nodded and moved her feet faster. She went falling down and slid lightly across the ice.

"Brooke, you ok?" Lucas asked, laughing.

"Don't laugh, Lucas!"

"Sorry baby…you're doing good, come on" he said, picking her up and kissing her. "You're ok…now…lets see…back, and forth. There, you're getting the hang of it!" He cried.

"Yay! I'm skating!" she said, letting go of Lucas and moving slowly.

"Good, Brooke, good!" Brooke moved tenderly back to Lucas and they continued and then got off the ice.

"That was good, you were a natural" Lucas said.

"Oh don't lie"

"No you got it in like 10 minutes"

"Look at Madison, whizzing around" Brooke giggled, pointing at Madison spinning madly on ice.

"That girl is multitalented" Lucas said. "Our child"

"I know…she's so big and smart and soon she'll be going to college" Brooke sighed depressed.

"Don't say that…she's only three!" Lucas chided. Brooke giggled and he wrapped his arms around her, shielding her from the cold.

"I love you, Lucas" she said softly. He tucked her brunette hair behind her ear and stared into her eyes.

"I love you so much, Brooke…more than life itself" he said, kissing her.

Everyone headed back to the hotel where they were staying and went back to their rooms. Brooke and Lucas headed back to their room with a sleeping and exhausted Madison in Lucas's arms. They put her to bed and headed back to the living area.

"Hey Alexis" Matthew said, sitting down on their bed. "Did you have fun today?"

"Yah! Omg Madison is so cute and did you see Brooke?"

"Yah…she was funny" Matthew said, watching Alexis take off her earrings and putting them on the nightstand. "God you are beautiful" he said.

"Thanks…" she giggled.

"I'm so glad we're getting married…there's nothing else I want then to marry you" he said, pushing her back on the bed.

Over at Brooke and Lucas's…

"You look beautiful" Lucas told Brooke.

"Thanks" Brooke smiled, casting her eyes down at the carpet. Christmas made both of them feel young again. They shifted down in front of the fireplace and both their skins glowed in the darkness.

"So…what did you get Madison for Christmas?" Lucas asked.

"Oh don't even get me started on the list" she laughed. Lucas kissed her suddenly. "Sorry, you looked so gorgeous laughing, I had to kiss you"

"Broody…" she giggled, turning on the radio. "You're Still The One" came on the radio.

(You're still the one)

You're still the one I run to

The one that I belong to

You're the one I want for life

(You're still the one)

You're still the one that I love

The only one I dream of

You're still the one I kiss good night

Brooke looked up shyly from playing with carpet lint. "I guess that song kind of defines us"

"Oh yah…Brooke, I love you more than life, you know that, right? I'm glad you're still the one"

"Yah…me too, Lucas"
