Hey Guys
So today was a boring day as usual, and I am avoiding this paper that I have due at the end of the semester. It's interesting but incredibly boring at the same time. So I would like to welcome two new readers to the fold LuvAngel1448 and mags0607, welcome to the community.
Mags0607: Thank you for taking the time to read and review I know how much time it takes to read 30 some odd chapters. Welcome.
MARIALAFFERTY: I can't wait either I haven't even thought past this chapter yet. Enjoy your two days off and we'll see you soon.
PaulineJ: I'm glad you like the Brucas scenes and I wanted to show that side of Nate because we usually only see the tough side. And with Jenny I just try to get down to a two year olds level.
harroc83: I am too, whenever I see them on screen I just think they have amazing chemistry with each other so that's why I wrote them together here. And I agree with you about Andy he is the only one that seems to get under Dan's skin.
LuvAngel1448: Thank you for the compliments and keep reading.
Love,
Emily
It was now New Years' eve and Brooke and Lucas were busy getting all the junk food ready for the night, it had been decided that they would have a small party over the computer with Jenny so she would get to join the festivities before she went to bed and then they would celebrate with Jake, Peyton, Nathan, and Haley over the phone. They also decided that since the majority of people were on the east coast they would go by New York time.
"So, tonight after our bizarre festivities what do you want to do?" Asked Lucas.
"I don't know we'll figure it out later, we have enough junk food to last months on a deserted island." Said Brooke with a laugh.
"Well at least now we don't have to go out for food either, this just keeps getting better and better." Said Brooke.
"What do you mean?" Asked Lucas.
"Well, we don't have to rush to the store for condoms thanks to your coaches, and now we don't have to go out to get food." Said Brooke.
"Good point." Said Lucas as they finished making the bed which he still wasn't sure why but went with it anyways.
It was now later on in the evening and they were getting ready for their celebration with Jenny on the computer. They decided to stay in Lucas' room that night so they didn't have to move the web cam.
"Unwle Luke, Autie Book there too?" Asked Jenny.
"Yes, she is munchkin."
"Autie Book I taught you no live there."
"Well I decided to live here is that okay with you sweetie?" Asked Brooke not believing she was asking a 2 year old's permission.
"Yes, you can." Said Jenny sweetly.
"So are you ready for the new year to start tonight?" Asked Lucas.
"Yes." Said Jenny not understanding what Lucas was saying.
"Okay well we've got 2 minutes until it's time to say 'Happy New Year' you ready?"
"Uh-huh." Said Jenny nodding her head up and down.
1 ½ minutes passed and Brooke and Lucas were preparing to say Happy New Year to Jenny had already yawned twice since they had started talking to her on the computer.
"Okay, honey you ready 1…2…3… Happy New Year!" Said Brooke.
"Appy New Year!" Said Jenny happily still having no idea what was going on.
"Happy New Year sweetheart." Said Lucas.
"Appy New Year." Said Jenny.
"Hey Peyt or Jake whoever is near by we'll talk to you later on." Said Brooke.
"Okay, Brooke we'll talk to you later, oh where are you guys going to be?" Asked Peyton.
"In Luke's room." Said Brooke.
"Okay, we'll call you after we put Princess to b-e-d." Said Peyton
"Okay, Good night Jenny." Said Brooke.
"Bye- Bye."
"Good night sweetheart."
"Bye." Said Jenny as she waved at the web cam.
It was a couple hours later and Brooke and Lucas were lying in bed watching television waiting for all the programs for the New Year to start and so far they were having no luck finding anything remotely interesting on it.
Nathan and Haley were having no such luck, she was completely recovered from her bout with the flu and they were making up for the lost time when Haley banished Nathan to the couch so he wouldn't get sick. Afterwards they were lying in bed wrapped up in each other's arms and talking about the events planned for the night.
"So what time do you think everyone will call around?" Asked Haley.
"Probably with in the hour, but I don't want to move from this spot with you. I just want to hold you like this forever." Said Nathan.
"You will, but if they are all going to call, I'm sorry but I can't talk to them like this." Said Haley referring to her lack of clothing.
"Why? You think that somehow by a miracle that at least two out of our four friends won't be. Think about it." Said Nathan.
"Okay, no visualizations please. And I know who you are talking about." Said Haley.
It was now nearing quarter to 12 and Brooke and Lucas called the two other apartments on three way so they all could talk together and celebrate together. It was a special evening for all of the couples because they looked forward to what the New Year brought.
"Okay it is now 11:58 and ladies and gentlemen we have just under 2 minutes until 2007 is here." Said the television reporter who was broadcasting from Times Square.
"Anything you guys want to say real fast before the New Year is here?" Asked Brooke.
"Just we love you guys." Said Peyton.
"Right back at ya." Said Brooke and Haley at the same time.
"10…9…8…7…6…5…4…3…2…1 Happy New Year!" Said the television as all the couples screamed it and then kissed their partners.
"Lucas?" Said Nathan realizing that neither him nor Brooke had come back on the line yet. "Lucas stop making out with Brooke and get back on the line."
"What? Sorry man Happy New Years' Guys." Said Lucas.
"Happy New Year to you too, hey we'll talk this week and that way we can all ring in the New Year properly." Said Brooke trying to hurry her friends off the phone.
"Okay, Brooke we get the picture, it's not one we want but call us after you start classes." Said Haley.
"Okay, we'll talk then. Bye guys." Said Brooke as she and Lucas hung up the phone.
It was now the day that Brooke and Lucas had been waiting for it was Brooke's first day of classes at BU and luckily they had one together it was their Business Ethics class and it was sure to be interesting because they had it together. They walked into the classroom and found two seats next to each other. They were joking around and then a familiar face walked into the room and noticed that he had two students that he knew quite well.
The man walked over to them and asked them what they were doing.
"Well, if it isn't my favorite 6'1" 6 year old and his gorgeous lady friend." Said Andy Hargrove referring to when he and Karen first started dating and she hadn't exactly told him how old Lucas was.
"Andy what are doing here?" Asked Lucas as he stood up and gave Andy a manly hug.
"I'm a professor, Hi Brooke, sweetheart how are you?" Said Andy as he gave Brooke a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
"Wait you're teaching this class?" Asked Brooke.
"Yes, I am I take it you are a couple of my students."
"Yeah, this class certainly just got more interesting." Said Brooke.
"So how is everyone, back in Tree Hill I mean?" Asked Andy.
"Great, uh Nate and Hales are in Chapel Hill. Jake, Peyton, and Jenny are in Seattle. And Mom is engaged to Keith." Said Lucas.
"That's great, so how did you two end up going to the same college?"
"Um, Brooke and I started dating again Senior Year and just recently decided that we didn't want to be away from each other." Said Lucas.
"Well I'm proud of you both and if you will excuse me I actually have to try to fill your heads with some knowledge." Said Andy as he shook hands with Lucas and Brooke.
"Good Morning everyone, my name is Andy Hargrove and this class is called Business Ethics 101, I also want to say that this semester will be an interesting one as you may have noticed there is an sign in sheet going around and if you all could sign it, that would be greatly appreciated. There is also copies of a sylybus going around you are responsible for the work on it, this isn't high school people and I'm not going to remind you of assignments. I have better things to do in my life than to worry about who didn't hand in papers." Said Andy.
