Chapter Five.

Brooke was taken aback at he events that just transpired, her mouth dropped open she was flabbergasted to say the least.

"What?"

She said aloud unsure what just happened was real or not, Lucas took her fingers and kissed them while looking her right in the eyes.

"Brooke. I know this is unexpected and sudden and I will understand if its too soon for you.

But You are the one for me you know it, I know it the whole town knows it there is no one else but you.

You're the love of my life , the light of my day you bring me such happiness I can't describe.

I love you more each day and I will from today till the end of time and that is a promise.

Nothing will keep me from you and I cant imagine spending another single minute without you.

We have been through more than any teenager would during their whole lives, there is that quote ' carpe diem' meaning seize the day not to waste another minute.

I want you Brooke, forever.

So, will you become my wife?"

By the end of his speech Brooke was in tears but not of sadness but happiness and joy.

"Lucas.."

Pausing a moment to wipe away her tears from her eyes, she stopped and looked at him for a minute.

What she say was someone who loved her more than anything in the world and she knew her decision.

"Brooke.. I'm sorry.."

"Stop.. Luke that just made me happier than you could ever imagine. I love you more than anything else, I never thought I could feel this way because well my parents never taught me how to love so I just thought I would never find it.

But I have and its with you, There is no one else for me but you and I never want to be apart from you ever again.

So yes Lucas Scott I would be honored to Become your wife"

Lucas smiled feeling like the luckiest guy in the world, He then opened the box which made Brooke's eyes open wide and her hand covered her mouth.

"Wow.. Luke.. This is so beautiful"

She looked at the gold band covered in Safire's and in the middle a white diamond.

Brooke had never seen something so beautiful , but he could have gave her anything and she would have loved it.

"Not as beautiful as you"

He stroked her hair and then slid the ring onto her left hand, which turned out to be a perfect fit.

"Luke. I don't want you go spending so much on me"

She said, frowning a little.

"Oh, I didn't buy this"

He said, with a small smirk upon his lips.

"No?"
He shook his head.

"It was my grandmothers she gave it to my mom for when she got married but since that didn't happen , Mom gave it to me not to long ago for the girl who I was going to be married to."

Two Months ago.

Lucas was sitting on his bed thinking about Brooke when there was a knock at his door.

"Come in"

Lucas said, calling out.

Karen then came into her son's room with something in her hand.

"Hey, mom what sup?"

He asked her, wondering what she wanted to talk about.

"Lucas I just wanted to give you something"

She holds out a small box.

"Okay"

He then opens it revealing a very beautiful ring.

"Wow, mom.. Who's is it?"

He looks to her face for some sort of clue.

"Yours."

He didn't quite understand what she was getting at.

"mine?"

She nods and then closes the box.

"Yes now it is, it belonged to my mother your grandmother when I was a child she used to tell me that when I was older she would give it to me just like her mother gave it to her and so on. But since I never got married although came close that once to Dan but I should have known he wouldn't follow through, and since I don't have a daughter just thought it was right for you to have it so that when you meet your future bride whom you will marry you can give it to her."

They looked at each other as Karen finished her story, one that Lucas had never heard before he just assumed it was too hard to talk about her mother because in the end of her life they had a falling out and she never got to say sorry.

"Thank you"

He says, hugging her.

From that day, he thought he knew who that girl would be that he would be giving it to, he knew he always had known.


"it's the most amazing thing I have ever seen in my life and I promise you will take great care of it so that I can give it to our daughter some day."

Tears welled up in her eyes once again unable to stop herself.

Lucas let out a small laugh.

"Oh, so planning our children already now Cheery?" He joked .

Brooke softly punched him in the arm playfully.

"Oh that's it, I'm so taking that back now"

He cackled rolling her onto her back, now on top of her but she wouldn't let up.

"No way mister"

Luke placed her hands together on the ground above her head so that she couldn't escape, and bent down and kissed her softly on the lips.

"I love you Brooke - soon to be Scott"

She loved the sound to that, Brooke Scott had a nice ring to it, she kissed him back devouring him.

"I Love the sound of that.. And I love you Mr. Scott."

Their kisses turned from sweet to passionate in a matter of a few minute which considering their history wasn't surprising.

"Cold?"

He asked her, having a idea

She mumbled something.

"Mm A little, bit your helping"

She said seductively, kissing his neck.

Lucas the stood up from the ground while pulling a reluctantly Brooke up as well.

"Luuukkke"

She groaned, not wanting to move.

"Come on Babe "

Knowing she would be stubborn he instead picked her up himself like a baby and walked toward the ongoing fire a few meters ahead.

Once Brooke felt the ravishing heat before her, she perked up.

"Oh Fire baby"

Letting her down, they cuddle up in front of the fire, his arms around her waist and she snuggles into his chest.

"I'm the happiest guy in the world"

He whispered in her ear, meaning it.

"I'm the lucky one"

She replied back, bending her head back so that their mouths reached in for a kiss.

Back at the Scott Residence(Lucas Scott that is)

Nathan and Haley sat in silence for the fist 10 minutes trying to figure what to say to the other, then Nathan Broke the ice.

"Okay Haley I'm sorry"

"Nathan.."

Haley attempted to say but he cut her off.

"Let me speak please. Otherwise I might not be able to get this out and we will be stuck in limbo forever"

She paused and agreed.

"Okay, well I know I have been hard on you for the last few months and for that I am sorry I guess you can say I was still mad about what happened.

But I want to put the past behind us and move forward, there is no point in dredging up the past because what is done is done cant change it but you can move past it and look toward the future.

I love you Haley that never changed ever and I want to get that back, I want to start again."

Haley smiled and walked toward him.

"I love you too Nathan and I want nothing else but to be with you."

He took out his arm as she reached for it.

Nathan enveloped her into his arms, as their lips intertwined with each other.

As they pulled apart, Nathan made an announcement.

"Haley, to make this official I want to ask you something"

She looked at her husband and waited.

"Haley will you Marry me?"

Haley laughed softly.

"We're already married Nathan"

He smiled back at her.

"I know that silly but I want us to renew our vows "

She sat there in awe, she loved her wedding day and the thought about having it all over again just made her happy.

"I'd so love that, Yes I will marry you"

They kissed once again and laid on the bed, in each other's arms.

Pure ecstasy is what it felt like, being with the one you love more than anything

"Always and forever"

She whispered

"Always and forever"

He reciprocated back to her.

That was their thing, their saying.
