Chapter Three

Brooke woke up the next morning and had no idea where she was and then she remembered how she had fallen asleep in Nathan's arms the night before. She saw that she was in Nathan's apartment and in his bed and got up to go find him and she saw him sleeping on the couch. She went to the bathroom and when she came out she saw Nathan's eyes opening.

"Hey sleepy head" she said sounding happier then she did the night before.

"Hey, you sound happier today" Nathan said.

"Yeah well it's nice to have someone who cares for you the way you cared for me last night. Thanks so much Nate" Brooke said walking over to him and giving him a hug.

God she's so beautiful. Nathan thought to himself. He had thought she was hot before but all of a sudden saw this beauty in her. Everything about her is amazing, her smile, her eyes, her hair, the way she laughs. Nate you gotta stop talking about her like this, you don't have feelings for her, you can't she's your brothers ex. Nathan thought to himself trying to stop himself from thinking of her.

"Your welcome" Nathan said, "Hey Brooke how about we go out later tonight, you know for dinner or something at around six o'clock. As friends"

"Yeah sure Nate" Brooke said, "Well I gotta go get ready"

"But it's only eleven thirty, you have way more then enough time to get ready"

"Nate, I don't have an outfit to wear I have to go shopping and get my hair done. See you at six, don't be late" Brooke said leaving his apartment. I have to look perfect for dinner with Nathan. Brooke thought to herself. I can't believe I'm going to dinner with him, he is so amazing. I don't have feelings for him though. No Brooke, you can't, remember what happened last time you feel in love. Brooke thought on her way to the mall.

It was 5:55 when Brooke heard a knock on her door.

"Hey Brooke" Nathan said, "These are for you, thought they might cheer you up" said Nathan handing her some flowers.

"Thanks Nate" Brooke said, "Come in, I have to put hem in a vase"

"Okay"

As Brooke was putting her flowers in the vase she noticed Nathan starting at her.

"What? Do I have something in my teeth?" she asked.

"No, it's just you look so beautiful tonight that's all" Nathan said.

"Thanks Nate, you look okay, I guess" Brooke said teasing.

"Excuse me, but I think I look extremely hot" Nathan said teasing back.

"Okay, you got me, you do look hot, and I'm madly in love with you" Brooke said putting her hands over her heart and fluttering her eyes.

"Now that's more like it" Nathan said laughing, "Now lets go!"

"And what if I don't want to" said Brooke.

"Well then I'll make you" said Nathan, picking Brooke up.

"Oh no you won't. I always get what I want" said Brooke trying to get away. Before they knew it they feel on the floor and Brooke was on top of Nathan.

"Told you I always get what I want" Brooke said leaning over and kissing Nathan.
