Author's note: Thanks to all who have been reviewing, I really appreciate it. I had thought about continuing right on with some drama but I figured that I had to have some kind of romance, rather than all the drama, so here it is, a nice romantic chapter, the way I wish things could have been. I love being a writer and making stuff happen the way I want it!

Chapter 11- Love Is In the Air

"Hi boyfriend, like my dress?" Brooke asked as Lucas walked into her room. She did a little spin and then put her hands on her hips expectantly.

"I love it. You look great Brooke." Lucas loved it when got all dressed up. She was wearing a sparkly dress that just lit her whole persona up. And her hair was curled, Lucas loved it like that. It made her look softer, took away that hard exterior she was always putting up.

"Thanks Luke, now don't feel shy about telling me that throughout the day if you feel the need." Brooke walked over to Lucas and pointed to her cheek, "I just put on lip gloss, I don't want it to rub off."

Taking the hint Lucas leaned in and kissed Brooke on the cheek and then again on the forehead. "Are you ready to go? I promised Keith that I would get there early."

"Yep, just let me grab my purse." She did and the two headed out to Lucas' car. "This care, definitely a perk of living with the devil. We will look so hot driving up in this."

"You would look hot even if you pulled up on a tricycle."

"Now that is why we get along to well." Brooke clapped her hands together, "I just love weddings. I am so excited for Keith and Jules."

"So am I. Keith is so happy. It is great."

"How is your mom dealing with all of this." Brooke knew about their past, she knew that there had been a lot of feeling between Lucas' mother and uncle.

"She seems to be doing okay. Honestly, since I moved out, her hatred for Dan has been the only thing on her mind." Lucas hating hurting his mom, but knew he had to do it to save Keith. Keith really deserved this, really deserved to be happy for once. He had sacrificed so much throughout the years, always living in the shadow of Dan. Lucas wouldn't sit back and let Dan interfere in Keith's life anymore.

"I just hope that it all goes well. That any secrets that might be out there stay out there."

"I always wonder if I am making the right decision, or if I should tell Keith." Lucas constantly wondering whether or not he was doing the right thing. He hated lying to his uncle like this. What kind of best man did that? But it seemed as though it was the right thing to do.

"You have a good heart Lucas, you always end up doing the right thing. Look, you got me back." Brooke laughed a little. "But seriously, if you think you should tell him, there is still time." Brooke reached over to Lucas and took his hand, "Just do what your heart tells you."

The two rode the rest of the way in silence, Brooke knew that Lucas was busy thinking and she knew he needed the silence. He had a big decision to make.

As soon as they pulled up to the church Lucas sprung from the car. He went over and opened Brooke's door, helping her out, and then began leading her into the church. When they got inside he led her to the last pew and sat her down.

"I know what I have to do Brooke, if you don't mind waiting for me here I am going to go and find Keith."

"I will be fine. Go." Brooke looked up and Lucas and nodded.

Lucas leaned down to kiss her, "Oops not the lips, sorry Cheery, I forgot." Lucas redirected himself to her forehead. "I will be back soon."

Lucas took off to find Keith. After a few minutes of frantic searching he found him in the reception hall.

"Keith, my man, how are you holding up?" Lucas walked over and slapped Keith a high five.

"Good Luke, thanks. I'm just a little nervous. It's weird though, I know that it is right, me marrying her. Just like you knew that you and Brooke getting back together was right. How is all that? Is she here?"

Lucas could tell that Keith wanted to change the subject away from his anxiety. "We are doing really good. She is here, waiting for me out in the church. She is just amazing man. Everything she says and does amazes me."

"Brooke does seem like quit a girl. I remember the first day I met her, that morning at her house. It was obvious to me from that minute how much she cared about you. I am glad you guys could work things out."

"Yeah, well, that was all about me owning up to what I did, to all of the stuff I did wrong. Once I did that I think she knew that I was serious, and that I really wanted her to trust me. From there I just had to keep proving how important she was to me, how I didn't want to lose her." Lucas laughed out loud as he thought about the times she stormed into his room and yelled at him. "It wasn't always easy but I fought for her."

"Well you guys definitely deserve each other. She really is great girl."

"Yeah she is, she has the best heart of anyone I know." Lucas said that with all the sincerity of the world, he had yet to meet someone who cared about others as much as Brooke. Even when she pretended to be all stuck up in her "cheerleader mode," as Lucas thought of it, it was just an act. That wasn't the real her.

"Well, then you are even more perfect for each other than I thought then, because you, Lucas, have the best heart of anyone I know." Keith put his hand on Lucas' shoulder as he said it. "You really do. You have grown into this amazing man, I am so proud that I have been able to be there for the growing up."

With that last comment Lucas felt stricken with guilt, if Keith thought that Lucas had the best heart of anyone he knew Lucas owed it to him to be honest. He had no idea how it would all work out, but he knew what he had to do. "Keith, I have to tell you something, and you aren't going to like it, but I have to tell you."
