"Lucas!" Brooke yelled when she got home from work that day. "Lucas." She yelled again when she got not answer. She walked to the living room and saw Lucas sitting on the couch eating a sandwich and watching the TV. Brooke grabbed the remote and switched it off.
"Brooke." Lucas said slightly annoyed.
"Get up and start cleaning this house now." Brooke said firmly.
"What is going on?" he asked her still staying seated.
"There's no time." Brooke said grabbing the sandwich and taking a bite out of it before throwing at away.
"I can't eat?" He asked her.
"Look go clean the bathroom or something I'll clean our room." Brooke said starting to walk away but she turned around when she realized Lucas wasn't following her.
"Lucas my parents are coming an about and hour." Brooke said.
"Holy shit." Lucas said jumping of the couch and running to the bathroom. Brooke sort of laughed at him before realizing what the situation was. Lucas was in the bathroom cleaning while Brooke was cleaning their room.
"When was this decided?" Lucas asked her.
"I'm just sitting in my office today and I get a call from my mother saying that she's in town and she wants to stop by and have dinner with us." Brooke said.
"That's scary." Lucas said.
"Lucas I'm freaking out. Should I tell them I'm pregnant?" Brooke asked him.
"I don't know. Maybe this isn't the best timing." Lucas said.
"She hasn't seen our apartment yet Lucas. She's going to wish she'd never let me marry you." Brooke said.
"Ok first of all, this apartment isn't what I would call the ghetto or anything like that, and second of all… she already thinks that." Lucas said.
"I'm not saying this apartment is bad but she won't think its good enough." Brooke said.
"Just like she thinks I'm not good enough for you." Lucas said.
"Oh, Lucas she doesn't think that." Brooke said. Lucas stopped cleaning and gave looked at Brooke like she was crazy.
"Ok yeah I don't think we should tell them I'm pregnant yet." Brooke said.
"Wait is it just your mom or your dad too?" Lucas asked her.
"Oh. I guess it's just my mom." Brooke said.
"Great, your dad can semi stand me but of course he isn't that one that chooses the random drop in." Lucas said.
"Get back to your cleaning." Brooke said. Just then the doorbell rang.
"Oh my god." Brooke said also letting out a small scream.
"What?" he asked her.
"She's early. Way too early." Brooke said.
"You know its ok. Our apartment isn't completely perfect, but it's ok." Lucas said throwing away the paper towel he was using and putting his hands on Brooke's shoulder and leading her to the door.
"I don't want to." Brooke said.
"Come on." Lucas said. The two of them reached the door and Brooke hesitantly opened the door and saw her mom there. Mrs. Davis was a middle aged woman who of course dressed much younger. She was carrying a Gucci purse wearing designer sunglasses.
"Brooke!" she said in a high pitched voice and hugging her daughter.
"mom." Brooke said through a forced smile.
"And we have Lucas still, I see." Brooke's mom said giving him a quick hug as if he was like going to infect her or something.
"So give me the grand tour." Mrs. Davis said.
"Well this is the entry hallway." Brooke said trying to make it sound more elegant then it was. "And if you turn right here, this is our bedroom." Brooke said. Brooke's mom stopped and looked at their room.
"I know I gave you shot notice darling but you could have at least made the bed." Mrs. Davis said.
"It is made." Brooke said.
"Not the proper way." She said.
"Ok well I'm sorry Lucas and I have a lot on out minds right now." Brooke said.
"What does that mean?" Mrs. Davis asked Brooke turning on Brooke quickly.
"We've just been busy." Brooke said.
"Well I'm guessing down here is the living room." Mrs. Davis said walking ahead of Brooke and Lucas. Brooke sighed and Lucas slipped his arm around her waste walking with her behind Brooke's mom.
"Brooke Davis." Her mom said.
"It's Scott not mom." Brooke said.
"Yes well, I've had just about enough of this place you seem to not mind living in." She said.
"Mom, we're actually moving out soon." Brooke said.
"To an even bigger dump then this I assume." Mrs. Davis said.
"No actually, Lucas is coaching now and he got an assistant teaching job for an English class, so we'll be coming into more money." Brooke said.
"Alright, well I think we should get to dinner now. What's good around here?" Mrs. Davis asked them both.
"There's a really good Italian place Lucas and I love." Brooke said.
"Good well let's go there I suppose." Mrs. Davis said pushing her sunglasses back down over her eyes and heading for the door. "You two coming?" she asked them.
Brooke and Lucas exchanged glances and followed behind her.
The three of them were seated at the restaurant.
"So mom, where is dad?" Brooke asked her.
"Busy working." Her mom said.
"Of course." Brooke said.
"Brooke Davis." She said.
"Scott mom." Brooke said.
"Brooke, your father has kept this family a float since you were born. We do not need that kind of a remark from you." She said.
"Right ok. Sorry." Brooke said.
The waiter came by and Brooke's mom ordered wine while Brooke and Lucas both just got water.
"Brooke, why aren't you having wine?" her mom asked her.
"I don't feel like it." Brooke lied. She couldn't have wine with the baby.
"Since when have you not felt like having wine?" Brooke's mom asked her.
"I don't know maybe since I got pregnant." Brooke yelled, causing everyone in the restaurant to look at her.
"Oh god." Lucas said under his breath looking down at the table.
"Excuse me. I hope I didn't just hear you say that." Mrs. Davis said.
"Yeah well you can ask everyone else in the restaurant; because I'm pretty sure they heard it too." Brooke said. "But if that's not good enough for you, because you know nothing is, then I'll say it again: I'm pregnant." Brooke said.
"Oh goodness. Well are you sure it's Lucas's?" Brooke's mom asked her.
"Yes mother. Oh my god I can't believe you just asked me that." Brooke said.
"Well you had some jumpy tendencies in high school I don't know." She said.
"Mrs. Davis that's really un called for." Lucas said.
"You can shut your mouth Lucas." She said.
"No mom you can shut yours." Brooke said. "Come on Lucas." Brooke said taking his hand and grabbing her purse.
"You are not walking out on me in the middle of our dinner." Mrs. Davis said.
"Yeah, um we are. And don't ever call me a slut again; you know what don't ever call me anything again. I'm sick of the way you treat Lucas and me. I really don't know what it's going to take to get you to understand that Lucas is the guy for me and we're going to raise this baby and be such a great family, a better family then you me and dad ever were or ever will be. So while your trying to sleep tonight you can think about that and how much you suck at being a mother." Brooke said quickly and loudly before walking out of the restaurant Lucas following quickly behind her.
When she got outside she stopped walking and leaned against the wall.
"Brooke." Lucas said quietly.
"Lucas, we're going to be the greatest parents this baby could ever have. I want him or her to know that the have parents who love them, and who won't judge them on everything they do." Brooke said "I want our child to be happy, Lucas." Brooke said.
"I'll do anything for this baby." Brooke said.
"Wow, that's certainly a new view on things." Lucas said.
"Oh my god, I was just such a bitch to my mom." Brooke said.
"She deserved it Brooke." Lucas said.
"Yeah well she's probably never going to talk to me again." Brooke said.
"I'm trying to see how that's bad." Lucas said.
"Lucas." Brooke said.
"It's alright Brooke. I'm sure she'll talk to you again." Lucas said.
"I guess so, and if not I always have your mom. She loves me ten times more then my mom does." Brooke said.
"That's not true your mom loves you." Lucas said.
"Hello? She just called me a slut, and don't you dare say that's what I am." Brooke said.
"No, Brooke I'm just saying she still loves you. I think she's just looking out for you in her own UN appearing to be loving way." Lucas said.
"Despite the fact that you're talking like your high, I guess you right." Brooke said giving in. "can we go now?" Brooke asked him.
"Yeah." Lucas said shaking his head and putting his arm around Brooke as they walked back to their car.
Lucas and Brooke were lying in bed that night, Brooke wrapped in Lucas's arms.
"I saw Carmen today." Brooke said breaking the silence they were having.
"You did?" Lucas stopped stroking Brooke's hair.
"Yeah, for like five minutes." Brooke said.
"Well what happened?" Lucas asked her.
"Well I mean she said her parents were never actually here, that they flew her out here to abandon her. I mean I don't know what to think about that but I guess I'll just have to believe her. The weird thing was that she already knew I was pregnant." Brooke said.
"What?" Lucas asked her.
"She said she picks up vibes is what she said. Someone stole her phantom of the opera CD, I feel really bad for her. She didn't even really seem that sad about her parents it's like the CD was more of an upsetting loss." Brooke said.
"I think it's good that you have a connection with her, you should keep seeing her." Lucas said.
"Change of heart?" Brooke asked him referring to how bad of an idea he thought it was for her to ever see Carmen.
"Yeah, just like you." Lucas said.
"Oh broody." Brooke said getting up and looking into Lucas's eyes "I have to say that I am completely and totally like obsessively in love with you." Brooke said.
"Good, cause I love you too." Lucas said pulling Brooke towards him and kissing her.
The next day Brooke was flipping through a magazine looking for a couch for one of the rooms she was designing, and her mind was aimlessly wandering to and from certain subjects like Carmen, her mom, and the baby… the baby, only Nathan Peyton and Jake didn't know about the baby. Maybe she should call them or something… she did decide to call them.
First she called Nathan.
"Hello?" he answered.
"Hey nate, it's Brooke." Brooke said.
"Oh, long time no… talk I guess." Nathan said.
"I know, I'm super sorry about that, this past week has seemed like ages, and everything has been going on." Brooke said.
"Everything meaning what?" Nathan asked her.
"Well I would like to tell you about it over dinner, along with Haley, Peyton, Jake and Lucas that is if you can get mini Scott a babysitter." Brooke said.
"I have practice." Nathan said.
"Nathan are you kidding, you always freaking have practice." Brooke said.
"Actually I am kidding." He said.
"Yeah I totally hate you right now." Brooke said feeling stupid for getting caught in his trap.
"Look, I'll call Haley and see what she can do about a babysitter." Nathan said.
"Ok, talk to you later." Brooke said.
"Yeah, hey Brooke it's nice talking to you." Nathan said.
"Aw, you too Nate, now stop phone flirting with me or I'll have to tell Haley." Brooke said.
"Whatever, bye." Nathan said.
"Bye." Brooke said smiling and hanging up her phone. Next on the list Peyton.
She dialed her number and got the message "hey friend or Peyton whichever you prefer, this is your friend Brooke and I haven't seen you since the wedding so um yeah anyways I want to have dinner with you and everyone else tonight so call me if you get this. Well… bye." Brooke said god why was it so awkward to leave a message on Peyton's phone, had they really gotten that not close or had Brooke just gotten way closer to Haley. Thinking of Haley reminded Brooke of Carmen, and that gave Brooke an idea. Brooke called to the front desk and a girl answered.
"Davis Designs." The girl said very business like, but in a sweet tone.
"Hey, it's Brooke." Brooke said.
"Oh hi miss Davis." She said.
"Hi, um I'm going to take off for about an hour I'll be back though." Brooke said.
"Ok, I'll take any messages for you." The girl said and then hung up the phone.
Brooke grabbed her purse and headed out the door.
Brooke got to Haley's office shopping bag in hand.
"hey tutor wife/mom." Brooke said.
"Wow you haven't called me tutor girl in such a long time." Haley said.
"I know, I thought I would today because I know you just love that nickname and I totally have a really big favor to ask you." Brooke said talking quickly and sitting down in the chair next to Haley.
"Ok, I'm guessing it has something to do with Carmen." Haley said.
"Tutor physic." Brooke said astounded Haley had figured that out.
"If it was something you couldn't have just called to ask then why else would you be here?" Haley asked her more as a rhetorical question.
"Good point. Anyways yeah I want to see Carmen again." Brooke said.
"Brooke I almost got caught yesterday I can't do that again. I'm sorry." Haley said.
"What it's not like I'm going to murder her or something. Look I really need to give her this." Brooke said holding up her shopping bag.
"What is it?" Haley asked Brooke.
"Please Haley, can I just give it to her." Brooke said ignoring the question Haley had just asked.
"Brooke I…" Haley said as Brooke cut her off.
"Please, Haley." Brooke said.
"Fine." Haley signed "but you like give it to her and then you have to leave." Haley said.
"Sure, fine, whatever." Brooke said getting a little giddy and jumping up ready to go.
"Come on." Brooke said grabbing Haley's arm and pulling her away and out the door.
The two of them got to the outside of Carmen's room and Haley motioned for Brooke to go in.
"I'll wait out here." Haley said.
"Ok, thanks." Brooke said smiling and walking in to Carmen's room.
She walked in and saw Carmen sitting on her bed with the headphones on just like the last time.
"What are you listening too?" Brooke asked her.
"Crap." Carmen said taking her headphones off "I hate the radio all they play is music that's fake and stupid." Carmen said.
"I bet you wish you had the phantom of the opera." Brooke said.
"Are you trying to make me hate life?" Carmen asked her.
"Here." Brooke said handing her the bag.
"What is this?" Carmen asked her.
"Find out." Brooke said watching alertly.
Carmen got the bag and looked inside and pulled out a new phantom of the opera CD.
"Oh my god." Carmen said jumping up and hugging Brooke, which definitely caught Brooke of guard.
"Thank you so much, you have no idea how cool this is." Carmen said.
"Oh it was really no problem; if you ever need anything just tell me." Brooke said.
"Right." Carmen said suddenly getting a little depressed again and sitting back down on her bed.
"Ok well I have to go now or Haley's going to kill me." Brooke said.
"Oh, ok I guess I'll see you around." Carmen said.
"Yeah, you can count on it." Brooke said smiling and walking out the door.
Haley was waiting on the outside.
"So what did you give her?" Haley asked her.
"Something she needed." Brooke said.
"Ok so can you stop being so cryptic please?" Haley asked her.
"It was a phantom of the opera cd." Brooke said.
"Oh." Haley said "well that's cool. Um Nathan called by the way I can get a babysitter."
"Oh good, um I just left a message on Peyton's phone so I don't know if she can come or Jake or whatever but you me Nathan and Lucas should definitely go." Brooke said.
"Yeah, sounds like fun." Haley said…
