Chapter 23! Thanks for the awesome reviews! I looove reading them! I hope you guys like this chapter! ENJOY and please review! Luvies!

"Dude… tell me you ordered the strippers for tomorrow night" Lucas pleaded with Nathan but from his expression he could tell his answer wasn't going to be good. At least all the excitement had gotten James to stop crying.

"I didn't order them remember? Mike did"

"Right… that's just great"

"SURPRIZE! How great am I? Throwing you a surprise bachelor party" Mike yelled coming through the front door with a huge keg. Only Mike would do something this stupid…They couldn't have a party tonight. Not with 3 babies here, it didn't work like that.

"Mike…We cant tonight! Brooke's not even here to watch the girls"

"Damn it… I was hoping she would get drunk and strip for us"

"Mike… you have to send these girls home" Lucas sighed stating the obvious… well he obvious for normal people. Mike wasn't considered normal therefore he saw nothing wrong with the whole situation.

"Why?"

"Because its us 3, Allie, Chloë and James… and I don't think they are going to want to watch the strippers"

"Man! I paid $2000 bucks for these girls!" Mike whined pointing to the girls who were already setting up god only knew what.

"What?"

"You said you were paying"

"Where did you find this idiot?" Nathan asked rolling his eyes at Mike as he picked James up to get him away from Mike. He didn't know much about being a parent but he did know that no child should be left anywhere hear that crazy guy.

"Aw! Gingy look at the babies! Hello! And they are wearing tummy shirts! The things you 2 could learn from us, and your twins!" One of the girls squealed picking up Allie and Chloë almost giving Lucas a heart attack… there was a Kodak moment. Allie and Chloë's first time with strippers… definitely something to add to the baby book.

"No thanks… that's what their mother is for" Lucas said taking the girls from her

"Is she a"

"No… she is in law school"

"That her?" The one apparently named Ginger asked pointing to a picture of Brooke posing for the camera.

"Yea…"

"She doesn't look like a lawyer to me"

"OK seriously… you guys have to leave! If Haley comes home and sees 2 strippers around James…. I'm a dead man!" Nathan panicked imagining the look on Haley's face and what she would do to him if she came home anytime soon, hopefully since she was out with Brooke they would have time to get everything fixed… before the girls found out.

"We have a no return policy… we leave you don't get a refund"

"Damn it Mike!"

"Come on you guys! Just put the little things to bed and we can have our party!" Mike whined begging Lucas almost like a puppy. He was truly pathetic, bad enough that Chloë and Allie were giggling at the faces he was making.

"Luke?"

"I don't know"

Brooke stared boredly at Felix. She always expected him turn out better than he looked. I mean yea he was hott, with that jet back hair and tan complexion but he still had that arrogance about him that was a total turn off… or at least it was now. What didn't shock her though was the fact that he owned a strip club. Of course he did… what else was the pervert do with his life? Dealing with strippers all day had to be his dream come true… and he was getting paid to do it.

"You look fine tonight Brooke" Felix smiled winking at her. It was enough to make her puke… what had she ever seen in him, well other than sex and money. If Chloë and Allie ever did the whole FWB thing she'd kill them… unless the guy was really really hott and they were at least 18. What was she thinking… even being around Felix made her feel like a crappy person.

"Thank you, you look… greasy"

"Yea… my girl Tiny and I were just"

"Gross! Ew… no" Brooke yelled covering her ears… she didn't need to know what he and 'Tiny' had been going… Felix could get pretty kinky and graphic.

"Were just moping the kitchen"

"Oh… well that's still gross"

"So what are you 3 doing in my club?" Felix asked flashing what he thought was his million dollar smile… at the 3 of them.

"Shopping for bunnies…"

"Ah, still as smart ass! I like that"

"And you still a dumb ass… guess some things never change, lets go" Brooke whined tugging on Erica's shirt. Felix was starting to bore her… and intrigue her at the same time. Part of her wanted to stay and talk… find out everything Mr. Tagarro had been up too the past couple of years. The other part knew it would probably give poor Lucas a coronary if she told him.

"Wait… you guys are here for a bachelorette party? Whose getting married?"

"M"

"Erica is!" Haley yelled cutting Brooke off. Brooke wanted a night to remember so she was going to give her one.

"Really? I guess Mouth got his Happy ending after all, Hold on a sec"

"Haley!" Brooke whisper yelled while Felix talked to one of his lovers as Brooke liked to think of the guys there. She couldn't believe Haley tutor girl Scott was lying and encouraging that man skank to hit on her!

"You said you wanted this to be a night to remember, well lead him on, get him naked and then show him pictures of the girls"

"I can't do that! Lucas would kill me!"

"How is he going to find out?" Erica agreed siding with Haley… of only Peyton were there, she'd at least side with Brooke. They did tend to think a like after all.

"How is he not? With my luck it will end up in the tabloids!"

"So… what are we doing tonight?"

"What do you mean 'we'?" Brooke asked glaring at Felix. The nerve this guy had as amazing… the only person she knew that had that much nerve was her. Leave it to Felix… her in pants as Peyton liked to put it, to try and one up her… well it wasn't going to happen tonight! She may be getting married and have 2 babies but that didn't mean she couldn't still be Brooke.

"What? I don't get to have fun in your little girls night"

"No"

"That sucks… since I can get us into anywhere to do anything" Felix shrugged his shoulders. He knew Brooke and the fact that he could get her into anywhere was enough to make her change her mind.

"Wait… what?"

"I have my connections"

"Fine… you can come, but you do what we say when we say… got it?" Brooke asked. This was going to be fun, 3 girls plus Felix….

"Anything for you baby"

"Gross! Lets get one thing straight here… I'm the one getting married, not Erica… so you can stop your pathetic attempts to flirt"

"I know, to Lucas right? I also know you have twin girls named Chloë and Allie… You know Felix can be a girl name too" Felix grinned. The pure utter shock ok Brooke's face was classic. She was for once almost speechless.

"What are you stalking me or something?"

"Brooke, I own a strip club… basketball players live in strip clubs, the teams in here a lot… they keep me posted"

"Remind me to kill them later" Brooke muttered rolling her eyes at him.

"I'll help if it means hangin with you"

"Gross Felix! What part of getting married did you not understand?"

"Come on… you know you've always wanted to pull a Peyton and Lucas… with me" Felix grinned punching her shoulder. Was he pathetic or what? At least in Brooke's opinion… Haley and Erica seemed to think it was funny.

"Ew, why don't I just kill you instead?"

"Then Allie and Chloë would never get to know their real dad"

"What?" Haley shrieked not thinking what Felix had said through. For all she knew he could be telling the truth… living here and all. Sometimes you never knew with Brooke.

"Brooke!"

"Kidding… kidding, so lets get out of here… I have an idea"

"This is going to be a long night"

Karen and Andy looked through the books of ways to adopt. There were so many ways… open adoption, over seas adoption, why couldn't they just say, "I want a boy who is about 5?" They didn't care where he came from, at least Andy didn't. Karen was still unsure about the whole adoption thing. All the horror stories she had heard about people who had adopted. Here she was in her 40's getting ready to be a mother again. Would she even have the energy to handle a little boy? Lucas had been such a sweet calm child, she was afraid she had been spoiled. Not every child was going to behave as well as Lucas had, at least until Lucas had met Brooke. Andy on the other hand didn't care about anything but getting a kid… he was going into this totally blind.

"Look at this boy! He's cute, lets get him" Andy laughed pointing to a picture of a little boy of the cover of a pamphlet. This was so much fun… finding the papers for their future child.

"I'm afraid it doesn't work like that. It says here this could take years for us to get a child"

"We could just get Brooke and Lucas to have one for us"

"Right…" Karen laughed. Like that would ever happen. Brooke swore up and down she wasn't ever having another baby for her and Lucas… which meant she sure as hell wasn't going to get fat for someone else.

"No I'm serious… maybe not Brooke and Lucas but a surrogate!"

"Andy…"

"Karen, at least think about it" Andy sighed seeing the frustration in her face. The fact that she didn't seem as into it as he did kind of killed the moment. Majorly.

"A baby? Its one thing to adopt a potty trained child… its another to start from scratch"

"Just think about it love? For me?"

Back at the house Mike and Nathan had finally over ruled Lucas and decided the strippers stayed… only until the babies were asleep they just drank and talked. Wouldn't Brooke love this one… At least they were polite strippers, asking before they drank ½ the pepsi in the refrigerator. And James seemed to like them and all the attention he was getting from them. Chloë and Allie on the other hand cried whenever they got near them and whined for "mama". Lucas wasn't sure why Nathan and Mike were even bothering. Allie and Chloë were already night owls as it was and without Brooke there to lay with them… there wasn't going to be any stripping of any sort tonight.

"I'm telling you guys, this is pointless" Lucas said bouncing Chloë and Allie on his knee. They were definitely whined screaming and giggling as they bounced. It was the only thing to keep them quiet and stop them from whining for Brooke.

"Says the one married to Brooke! Think of us here man! We don't have an excuse to do this often"

"Dude… you do this every night"

"Yes… but not for free! Don't be sour because Brooke is out watching other guys strip. Be happy because you are here with the hotty bodys!" Mike smiled winking at the girls. Not that they noticed, they were both way too wrapped up in Nathan and little James to even care what Mike said.

"I'm just happy they got James to stop crying"

"Ok… fine, you guys have fun with the str- girls, Allie, Chloë and I are going upstairs to read or something"

"Dude, you used to be fun" Mike muttered as Lucas carried the girls towards the stairs.

"Not this"

"Yea… before those 2 were born we used to do stuff like this all the time!"

"We never did stuff like this! Mike, are you jealous of two little babies?" Lucas said trying not to laugh. He forgot most of the time that Mike had the maturity level of a 5-year-old most of the time… causing him to get jealous of the dumbest things.

"Little Lucas stealers! We could have done stuff like this"

"What? Watching strippers drink pepsi?"

"They are going to strip! As soon as 'they' go to bed" Mike said glaring at the babies. They had turned into the enemy and he had to fight to keep Lucas.

"Man, watch it… you never call a mans kids 'they'"

"Why don't we just throw some chocolate syrup on you 2 and make you wrestle?"

"Actually Brooke did that to us once… it was a dare" Lucas laughed. Brooke and her obsession with condiments and sex.

"Damn… I need to meet this Brooke"

Brooke walked down a dark alley with Haley, Erica, and Felix. What they hell was she thinking… another dare night. If she went to Jail for one of these dares Felix was so going down. Although she had to admit… it was kinda fun, doing crazy things like this again. It had been forever before she and Lucas had had real time to their selves. Before the babies were born, yea they spent most of their time together but they had their separate lives too. He had basketball and she had school. Now he had his basketball again and she really didn't have anything. She hadn't talked to her friends from school in ages, and everything she did too seemed to revolve around the girls. Come to think of it she couldn't even remember the last time she and Lucas had had time to just be them… without worrying about the girls.

"Ok Davis…" Felix smiled opening his trunk and pulling out a box they had stopped and picked up on the way here. This was the dare of all dares… or at least it was a great one. One Brooke Davis couldn't even pull off.

"Almost Scott!"

"Whatever… your next!"

"Bring it" Brooke giggled shrugging her shoulders. All this time and he still underestimated her. Something Lucas never did, which was smart on his part. Never underestimate Brooke Davis.

"Here you go"

"What is this?"

"Your cheerleading uniform!" Haley shrieked. This was going to be good…

"What am I supposed to do with it?"

"Cheer"

"Where?" Brooke asked rolling her eyes. What kind of dare was this? Other than some gross pathetic way for him to see her in her uniform again. Why were guys so weird? At least guys like Felix, but then without guys like Felix guys like Lucas wouldn't be as good.

"There"

"Your kidding me… You want me to strip?"

"Yep… at a gay bar" Felix laughed pointing out the sign. This as perfect. The look on her face said it all… she was never going to be able to pull this one off! Not in a million years! She based her whole existence off of her looks. But in a gay bar they weren't going to get her anywhere.

"Fine… I'm hott… all the lesbian chicks will want me"

"Gay bar… as in guys"

"What? Guys? How the hell am I supposed to win over Queer eye for the straight guys?" Brooke whined knowing this wasn't going to be good… maybe she could sneak out her cell phone and call Lucas. Gay guys seemed to have a thing for him

"You said Bring it, You just have to get one up on stage with you and to offer you 100 bucks"

"Fine… but remember! Your next"

"Wait… we get to watch you" Felix added. If she was going to be her sexy self he might as well get to watch or else the whole thing would be as waste.

"What?"

"Yep, come on ladies… you'll like this"

"God, you are so lame, watch and learn ladies! Brooke Davis… Almost Scott can get anyone she wants" Brooke smiled prancing into the bar and into a bathroom to change.

"We know…"

Felix, Erica and Haley waited while Brooke slipped on the cheerleading uniform and walked on stage. In true Brooke fashion she looked totally confident in herself. The gay guys on the other hand didn't seem so… perky. Judging from the Boo's coming from the crowd they didn't even like her fashion sense.

"Hey guys…" Brooke said once she was situation on stage. This wasn't going to be easy but their had to be a way

"Show us the men!"

"Hold on, hold on… You wanna see the men?"

"Yea!" All the guys yelled cheering and throwing things on stage.

"Ok then… first I need to know, how many of you would do me if you weren't gay?"

"I would" A lot of guys yelled. One in particular caught Brooke's eye. He was a huge biker type, not one you'd think of as gay, but he was perfect!

"Would you pay $100 bucks too?"

"Sure… I guess"

"Would you pay $100 bucks to say you'd do me but get him?" Brooke asked pointing out Felix in the crowd. This was great… Felix really thought he was going to defeat Brooke! Yea right… hadn't he learned anything from dating her?

"What the hell?"

"Hell yea"

"Hand it over" Brooke smiled patting the guys shoulder. Felix said they had to want her… and pay her, well he did want her if he want gay and he had paid. Dare completed.

"Here… take it"

"Right… ok well that's Felix, he'll be yours for the night. I'll inform the bouncer"

"She is… amazing" Haley laughed in awe. Only Brooke could complete that dare and have it come back to torture Felix. It was pure genius. At least everyone but Felix himself thought so, Haley could only imagine what would happen if Felix told that guy no… all he would have to do would be sit on him and snap! No more Felix.

"Thank you very much… here is your money, and on yea, here's your man"

Lucas had been out numbered again so he stayed downstairs with the guys and watched as they drooled over the girls. In his opinion they weren't even that pretty… the dark hair and eye liner reminded him way too much of Nikki and anything to do with her definitely wasn't worth watching. Talk bout reminding him of high school. He found himself wondering how much easier high school would have been if he hadn't had to deal with all of the drama that came with Dan and Nikki and Everything else that most normal high school students had to deal with. It was their whole group he guessed that had been drug into the drama. Between Peyton, Jake and Nikki's drama, Nathan, Haley and Chris, Him, Brooke and Peyton. Dan trying to destroy them all… maybe all high school students had the relationship drama. But how many of their dads hit on the girl you were pining for while trying to destroy you… other than Dan that is.

Only Dan would find it appropriate to divorce Deb and then 6 months later decide that a younger, pretty someone, someone like Brooke was who he would be with. At least Dan was the only one in Tree Hill. Lucas and Brooke had been in his new dealership after the old one had burned… looking at cars. Lucas figured if he traded in the red convertible Dan had given him for something more… ok something a little cheaper he might have mire disposable cash for away games and other things. Plus the whole jock convertible thing was a little over rated anyway. At least he thought so, Brooke on the other hand didn't.

"Lucas! No… don't do it! I'll buy it from you! You can't sell this car! This is a monumental car!" Brooke begged trying her hardest to get him to reconsider. She even went so far as to steal the keys from the ignition threatening to take naked pictures of him in the shower if he tried to stop her. Not that she didn't already do that…

"What?"

"All cars are monumental in high school… for example my car! How many times did we have sex in there?"

"A lot…more than we should have because your car is small" Lucas laughed remembering how… interesting that had been. If a car was monumental it was definitely Brooke's… the things they did in that thing should be in Rilpeys believe it or not.

"Yea… now that I think about it we should have just done it in your jeep… it would have been a lot easier, but stop trying to get me off topic! Another reason you cant sell that car! In case we ever have sex again!"

"I'll get one with a big back seat… Brooke the red car is smaller than yours!"

"You know I always like a challenge! I will sleep with you to keep the red car! Lucas… please!" Brooke whined. She'd sleep with him even if he did sell it… she was just too scared to tell him that. Which made her wonder how long they were going to play this game, where they pretended nothing happened and that they weren't madly in love with the other one.

"If I buy the red car will you sleep with me Miss Davis?" Dan laughed walking towards them, it made Brooke and Lucas both want to gag. Who made comments like that to a 17 year old… unless you were another 17 year old.

"Ew! No… but I might if you make Lucas keep it!"

"Why do you want me to keep this car so bad?"

"Because! This is the car you asked me to stay in, and it's the car we went to the wedding in, and its really really hott! And when girls see you driving such a nice car they automatically think your gay and I don't have to worry about you cutting us out for some girl and! One day I can show my grandchildren a picture of this car and say 'see this car? I slept with the guy who owns this car A LOT'" Brooke giggled. Sexual comments… they had to work… at least she hoped they made him uncomfortable enough to just give up and keep it. It was worth it just to see him blush and smile at her when ever she mentioned it.

"Just what every kid wants to hear from its grandmother"

"Lucas… Please"

"Miss Davis… why don't I just sell you the car, I can give you a good deal, in exchange for come company" Dan laughed again obviously trying to join into the conversation. Lucas couldn't tell if he was kidding or being serious but either way it was pissing him off. Why couldn't he hit on someone like Peyton? Why did it have to be Brooke?

"Gross!"

"Dan!" Lucas snapped

"Well someone should have her… and if you're not doing anything about it"

"Ok let's go, I think I'll keep the car after all"

"YAY! Thanks Dan… and hit on me one more time and I get a restraining order"

Brooke walked through the side door to make sure not to wake Lucas and the girls but as soon as she walked into the den she didn't care. Nathan, Mike and 2 girls in thongs were passed out on the floor leaving Lucas, Chloë and Allie asleep on the couch and James in the playpen. Not to mention it looked like a tornado had hit the house, not that it mattered… it wasn't like she had to clean it up anyway.

"Hey girly girls! Mommy's home… looks like you 2 have had a long night, but! Mommy stripped in a gay bar, betcha didn't do that." Brooke giggled picking up the girls from Lucas. She hated too since the 3 of them looked so cute there asleep, but missing them took over and cuteness turned into longing.

"Tell me it was gay guys" Lucas muttered not bothering to open his eyes.

"Hey Broody… looks like you guys had your own little party, and yes… lots and lots of gay guys, although they didn't mind sleeping with me"

"Yea… the strippers seemed to like me too"

"Come on… I've got something for you" Brooke giggled leading him upstairs to put the girls to bedroom. She was wired and planned to keep him up all night… they might as well take advantage of the free babysitting while they could.

"Is it one of those pens that when it click it the girl gets naked?"

"Yes! And a matching Cup! No… its better than that! But… it does possibly involve a naked me"

"Ok I'm there, Girls you're sleeping in your room tonight" Lucas laughed kissing both the girls good night before turning out their light. Maybe with any luck they would sleep through the night for once.

"They look so tired I don't think we'll have a problem… will we babies? God I missed them! And you… but at the same time it was so nice to get out"

"So what did you guys do anyway?"

"I don't kiss and tell… unless its you… come on, you might want to be sitting down for this. Night babies!" Brooke smiled cracking the door and pulling Lucas into their bedroom. She thought it best to give him a quick kiss before breaking the whole Felix news…

"Why do I need to sit down?"

"Ok… so who is your least favorite person in the world?"

"Dan?" Lucas asked getting that sudden sinking feeling in her stomach… not Dan, again.

"Besides him"

"Um, from high school or now?"

"High school" Brooke shrugged trying to play it off like it was nothing. If Felix made Lucas ½ as nervous as Peyton made her things weren't going to be good. They both had a tendency to freak out when it came to this stuff and she really didn't want to deal with one now… not 3 weeks before their wedding.

"Nooooo"

"Yes!"

"Felix?" Lucas asked majorly squinting. Usually this meant he was either really confused or really ticked off… and she was guessing he definitely wasn't confused about this one.

"Yea… he owns the club we went too! So he like invited himself out with us and we had this little dare night thing… but its all good, I sent him home with a gay biker and…" Brooke giggled pulling off her coat to reveal her cheerleading uniform. Hopefully… this would make him forget all about Felix and focus at the task at hand, they were here, with everyone else asleep and they were Brooke and Lucas!

"Woah"

"I thought you'd like it! With your cheerleading obsession and all"

"Hey… Only you as a cheerleader" Lucas laughed pulling her close to kiss her.

"Uh huh… shut up and lets do what we're bestest at! This can be our pre-honeymoon" Brooke giggled kissing him again this time harder to get her point across.

"Should we send them home?"

"No… we should have sex and pretend they aren't here"

"Works for me"
