It was the end of the summer. Lucas sat on the beach thinking about everything that had happened. He had pored his heart out to Brooke and she left without saying anything in return. He had talked to her a couple of times since she had left and she wasn't sure she wanted to try again. She had admitted she had loved him but her feelings had changed when she remember the hurt she had when him and Peyton had hooked up. He had lost her. He had met a new girl named Jamie who had moved into Brooke's house. She looked a lot like Brooke and he wondered if that was the reason that he liked her. Today was the day that Brooke was coming home and he was going to meet her at the airport..he knew nothing would happen between the two of them but he still loved her and wanted more than anything to hold her again.

B- Lucas!

L- Hey Brooke!

She ran over and jumped into his arms

B- it's really good to see you Lucas

L- you too Brooke

B- look Lucas there is a lot of things we need to talk about, but right now im just happy to be home so lets go have some fun, we can save the talk for later

L- sounds good Brooke; lets go get your luggage

What Lucas didn't know is that Brooke had been keeping in touch with Nathan when she was gone. When Haley had come back Nathan told her it was over and he had moved on. Haley was now back in New York and dating Chris. Nathan and Brooke had become good friends and Brooke wanted more. She planned to make a move on him when they saw each other again. Brooke Davis was in love with Nathan Scott. Never in her right mind had she imagined her and Nathan together. He had always been so arrogant but when he started to date Haley he changed and Brooke loved the new Nathan. She only hoped Haley hadn't hurt him too much, she was ready to be in a relationship again and feel loved.

Brookes thoughts were interrupted by Lucas

L- so where to first?

B- well how about we stop Peyton's so I ca drop off my things, I know she is away with Jagelski but she said I could stay in the guest room as long as I needed.

L- are you sure you don't want to use my room anymore?

B- Your not living with Dan anymore Lucas, you need your room, plus it will be nice living with my best friend and we both can have our own rooms.

L- ok so after we drop off your things you want o get something to eat at the café?

B- yes, I would love to see your mom again

L- actually she is still with Andy

B- oh wow

L- yah but we can still go there, I mean aren't you hungry

B- yah actually I am

L- ok sounds like a plan

After they dropped off Brooke's stuff they headed to the café, Brooke was so happy to be home and that there was no awkwardness between her and Lucas. She was not inspecting to run int o Nathan in the café.

N- Brooke! Your home!

He pulled her into a big embrace that made Lucas look at them with envy

B- its good to see you Nate

N- what are you guys up to?

B- were just getting a bite to eat

N- well what do you have planned for tomorrow night?
