Ok so this is a new story, and I want to write it but only if people are reading. Believe me this is not some attempt to get reviews, however I have two other stories going right now so I really, like really need to know if you guys are reading this so like I hate to say this but if I don't get reviews I don't want to continue the story only because I would rather focus my time on my other stories that I know people are reading. So if you could please tell me thoughts I like would seriously appreciate it. I hate to be demanding but please. But at least read and enjoy…
"Lucas… baby… wake up." Brooke stood next to a sleeping Lucas whispering in his ear.
Lucas didn't wake up.
"Lucas Brooding Scott." Brooke said getting a little annoyed and hitting him on the shoulder.
"mm, what?" he asked her, picking his head up from the pillow and adjusting his eyes to the light.
"Aw, you're so cute." She said running her hands through his messed up hair.
"You woke me up to tell me I'm cute? I mean I'm flattered Brooke but don't you think I already know that?" He asked her, talking to her as if he were the king of the world.
"Whoa, try not to get too full of yourself there." She said taking a step back "and no that is not why I woke you up." She said. She crossed her arms and leaned to one side.
"Then why did you wake me up?" he asked her.
"Nathan and Haley get here today." Brooke said, Haley and Nathan were also married and they had moved to New York for awhile so Haley could follow her singing career, but now they were moving to California., which happened to be where Brooke and Lucas lived.
"I was aware of this." Lucas said sinking back down into the bed.
"Lucas!" Brooke said climbing onto the bed and straddling him "we haven't seen them in three years, this is a pretty freaking big deal if you ask me…and… I mean aren't you excited?" she asked him laying her arms on his chest.
"Of course I am, but are we throwing them a party, at…" he looked at the clock "8:23 in the morning?" he asked her taking her hands into his.
"Well, no but we need to like get food, I mean we are making dinner tonight aren't we? God I don't know I just couldn't sleep and I hate it when you can sleep and I can't." Brooke said pouting.
"Alright, fine how about you and I go get some breakfast and then we can go grocery shopping. Does that sound good?" he asked her.
"That's sounds perfect." She said a little seductively, and she leaned down and kissed Lucas quickly before she got drawn back into bed with him.
"Aw, I was hoping I could get you back into bed." Lucas said.
"Those powers belong to me, come on did you fall asleep during power class?" she asked him "let's get on the ball here Lucas, now get up." She said hitting him playfully before getting off of him and walking over to the closet to pick out something to wear.
"Let's go naked today." Lucas said smiling at Brooke.
"Obviously you didn't fall asleep in how to get arrested 101 class did you?" she asked him.
"Obviously I think you're hot." Lucas said.
"Smooth." Brooke said turning back to her clothes and taking out white gauchos and a blue top. "I'm going to go change; you get your brooding self out of bed and ready to go." Brooke said hitting him on the chest as she walked by him into the bathroom. "Love you." She said.
"You too." Lucas said laughing to himself.
"How much longer until we get there?" Haley asked Nathan, the two of them were seated in first class seats on the first flight to California.
"Haley, we just took off, it's going to be awhile." Nathan said.
"Right, yeah right well" she said taking deep breaths between each word "I'm just not a big fan of this whole plane, flying being in the air thing." She said. They hit a brief spot of turbulence and Haley instinctively grabbed Nathan's hand.
"We're going down." Haley said raising her voice.
"Haley." Nathan said laughing at her, but slightly embarrassed that she had just said that so loud. "We are not going down." He held her hand a little tighter.
"yeah yeah I know, how much longer until we get there again?" she asked him turning to face him.
"I don't know probably…" he was starting to say something but Haley put her hand over his mouth.
"No! I don't want to know, maybe if I just do something to get my mind off of all of this I can relax or something." She said facing forward again "got any ideas?" she asked him.
"I can think of something." He said placing a hand on her upper-leg causing her to jump a little bit.
"Nathan, no not on a plane." She said looking at him like he had just escaped from an insane asylum.
"Ok, it was just a suggestion. You could try writing a song." He said.
"Yeah… I suppose I could, I'll call it How I died, plane crash over Wyoming… I don't even know if we fly over Wyoming." Haley said just as the co-pilot came on over the inter-com.
"Ladies and Gentlemen we may be experiencing some turbulence in the next few
minutes here, the captain will do his best to try to avoid it, but until then please remain seated until the captain has turned off the seat belt sign." Then his voice went away.
Haley gulped "of course the one flight I get on turns out to be the death flight." Haley said.
"Don't worry, we'll be fine. Just think California here we come, you know you love that song." Nathan said.
Haley cautiously looked over at him without saying anything. They sat in silence for a few moments and Haley started to hum/mumble the tune to California, as they hit spot of turbulence she tightened her grip on Nathan's hand and hummed a little louder.
Nathan smiled to him self and looked out the window.
Lucas and Brooke were walking down the many different isles of the grocery store trying to decide what to buy. Whenever the two of them went shopping together it was an epic even, everything always looked good and even if it didn't they would find out some purpose it might serve in some random situation that would probably never happen.
"Ooh, cookies." Brooke said excitedly to Lucas as they turned into the cookie/cracker isle.
"Naturally." Lucas said under his breath.
"Hey I heard that, now would you stop the cart, we have some major decisions to make right now." She said.
"Ok." He said stopping and looking at the wall of cookies that surrounded them.
"Oreos?" he asked her.
"Or mint milanos?" she replied.
"Both." He said.
"What the hell." She said throwing her hands up in the air as Lucas got the cookies.
"Oh my god." Brooke said, she walked down the isle a little way and on one of the shelves.
"I spy, whipped cream." Brooke said grabbing it and running back to Lucas "you remember all the fun that we found with one can of whipped cream?" she asked him leaning against his chest.
"I'll never forget." He said.
Brooke dropped it in the cart "oops." She shrugged "I guess it's a sign." She said smiling.
"Must be." Lucas said pulling her closer to him and kissing her.
"Cooties, cooties." A random little boy ran up to Brooke and Lucas, they broke apart and exchanged glances.
"That girl has cooties." The little boy said.
"No you do." Brooke said.
"Brooke." Lucas shoved her a little.
"I'm telling my mommy!" he said stomping his feet and running away.
Brooke looked at Lucas "run, run, RUN!" she said shoving him and the cart away, Laughing the whole time.
"California HERE WE ARE!" Haley yelled running out of the airport with her bags and dropping them on the ground and jumping up and down. Nathan slowly walked up to her lugging more bags.
"God it feels so good to get off that plane and out of the airport." Haley said.
"So are you ready to check out our new apartment, the movers should already be there." Nathan said.
"Yeah, I can't wait to see Brooke and Lucas tonight." Haley said. "Should I call them I mean we have no idea where they live or anything…"
"Haley, let's just go to our apartment and take some time to chill." Nathan said placing his hands on her shoulders.
"We live here now; we can see Brooke and Lucas all the time." Nathan said.
"Your right, I guess I'm just excited and nervous I mean I haven't seen either of them in three years, sure we've kept in touch with calls and emails but… three years is a long time." Haley said.
"I know, but its ok everything is going to be fine." Nathan said "this will all be great." He said.
"Your right, ok let's go to our new home." She said picking up her bags again and the two of them headed to a taxi.
"Lucas Scott how the hell do you make this past stuff I don't know how to pronounce?" she yelled, because she was in the kitchen and he was in their room.
"I don't know." He yelled back.
"Well can you come here and help me so that we aren't having a yelling fest?" she asked him still yelling.
"no." he yelled back, he was trying to get her going.
Brooke sighed and then took in a deep breath "Whipped Cream is now going in the trash can." She yelled. "3, 2, 1" she said aloud to herself and Lucas was in the kitchen.
"What's this you're trying to make?" he asked her.
"Oh, how nice of you to grace me with your presence." Brooke said.
"What's this you need help with?" he asked her.
"Making this pasta stuff, maybe we should just order food and tell them we cooked it." Brooke said smiling at her idea.
"We did not just spend 200 and something on food to not cook for them." Lucas said.
"Speaking of them, maybe we should call or something, I mean they don't know how to get here." Brooke said.
"You're changing the subject but that's a good idea." Lucas said. "You call, I'll do the pasta" he said.
"Great." She kissed him quickly and went off to find her phone. She found Nathan's number and dialed it.
After a few rings he picked it up.
"Hello." He said.
"Hey Nathan, it's me the one and only Brooke." She said jumping onto her bed like this was girl talk or something.
"Oh, hey." He said getting slightly happier.
"So, are you all here, at your new apartment is everything ok?" she asked him.
"Yeah, we're here and everything is great, the apartment is really nice." Nathan said.
"Good, so when are you coming over for dinner… or correction when are Lucas and I coming to pick you up for dinner?" she asked him.
"We do have a car Brooke, it got here." He said.
"Well excuse me for trying to be hostly and nice." Brooke said "you can walk your ass's here for all I care." Brooke said jokingly.
"Ok, alright we'll take the ride." Nathan said giving in.
"Ha I win." She smiled.
"So I guess that means your going to need to know where we live." Nathan said.
'That might be helpful." Brooke smiled.
"I would tell you but I don't really know where we live." Nathan said.
Brooke laughed a little "well can you put Haley on the phone then?" she said.
"She's a little crazy right now, but ok." Nathan said, Brooke heard him call Haley on the other line and after a few seconds she answered.
"Hey Brooke, what's up?" Haley asked her, breathing sort of hard.
"Is everything ok over there?" Brooke asked her.
"Oh, yeah I've just been running around the house with the movers trying to unpack and stuff." Haley said.
"Oh, fun. Ok well your useless husband doesn't even know where you guys live, so I was wondering if you could tell me so that I can pick you guys up tonight. We are having dinner at our house." Brooke said.
"Um, yeah ok. Here, can I call you back in a minute, I... I'm just really busy right now." Haley said.
"Sure." Brooke said.
"Ok, bye" Haley said.
"Bye." Brooke closed her phone and looked dazed at Haley's current situations
A few hours later…
"Brooke we have a problem." Lucas said, he was in the kitchen making lots of different foods.
"What, you can't find a place to hide the whipped cream?" she asked him coming out of their room and down into the kitchen, putting her earrings on.
"Wow, you look hot." Lucas said seeing her; she was wearing a black tube top with jeans and pink pumps.
"And that's a problem because…" she said smiling after putting her other earring on.
"No, ok the problem is that we can't leave the food here by itself." Lucas said.
"It's not going to run away." Brooke said.
"It's not done cooking" Lucas said.
"Oh, right… well I'll just go by myself. Their apartment is right next to one of my favorite stores so I know how to get there." Brooke said.
"Ok, problem solved. See that's why I love you." Lucas said pulling her over to him and kissing her.
"It's why I love myself too. Ha just kidding. I guess I should go now." She said "I'm nervous." She said.
"Don't be. It's not like we haven't talked to them or anything. We've kept in touch." Lucas said.
"I know, but it's just awkward." Brooke said.
"Just go be Brooke, and everything will be fine." Lucas said.
"Ok, I'm going to go now." She said still standing there.
"Are you waiting for me to stop you or something?" he asked her.
"No, I'm just mentally preparing myself." She said.
"Ok." Lucas said pretending to not think she was crazy. A few more moments of silence passed.
"Alright, I'm ready now." She said "I'll be back with Nathan and Haley." She said
Kissing Lucas quickly before walking out to her car. Lucas looked out the window and watched her back out of their driveway and then he went back to his cooking.
"Nathan do I look ok?" Haley asked him walking out of their room into the living room full of boxes.
"As always." He said.
"Thanks, god I don't know why I'm so nervous. I mean Lucas and I are, or used to be, but we still are, god I don't know but we're best friends." Haley said.
"So everything is going to be fine. This isn't that weird." Nathan got up and walked over to Haley placing his hands on her hips.
"Kind of not in the mood right now." Haley said.
"Seems to be the theme for today." Nathan said under his breath.
"Well sorry, god." She said.
"Aw, Haley I was just joking. Hey I get that your nervous." He said. "Just don't let it overcome you." Nathan said.
"I know your right. I just can't help it." She said letting her head fall against Nathan's chest.
"I wonder if Brooke is still the same old Brooke." Haley said.
"Haley, it's not like we haven't talked to them, and yeah she still is." Nathan said.
There was a knock on their door.
"Speak of the devil." Haley said "come with me." Haley said dragging Nathan behind her.
Haley opened the door and Brooke immediately jumped up and hugged her.
"Oh my god! Haley James Scott, you are like my favorite singer like ever." Brooke said imitating a teenage fan.
"Definitely still the same." Haley said quietly to Nathan.
"Sorry, I had to do that." Brooke said "come here my sort of brother in law." Brooke said hugging Nathan.
"Brooke." Nathan said shaking his head.
"What? Stop looking at me like that you two." Brooke said barging past them both into the apartment.
"Oh, Brooke it's really messy you shouldn't see it like this." Haley said.
"Wow, tutor girl living it up. This place is tight." Brooke said.
"Did you just say tight?" Nathan asked her.
"Yeah shut up" Brooke said.
"Ok" Nathan put his hands up in the air as a sort of surrendering sign.
"Alright. It's been decided Lucas and I are stealing this apartment. You can steal our crap house." Brooke said.
"Brooke I've seen pictures of your house it's not crap." Haley said.
"I know, but I like this place better. I think I'm like living space ADD or something." Brooke said.
"Wouldn't be surprised." Nathan said
"Hey!" Brooke said hitting him on the arm. "Who is picking you up and taking you over to her house for dinner?" she asked him.
"Brooke Scott is." Nathan said.
"That's right." Brooke said "god how do you live with this guy?" Brooke asked Haley.
"That's a tough one." Haley said smiling.
"Alright, enough of the apartment seeing. Let's go eat some food. Lucas and I have been slaving over a hot stove all day long." Brooke said linking arms with Nathan on one side and Haley on the other.
"Show us the way." Haley said.
