Hey Guys

Vacation is here at last…yay! Again I apologize for last night when my eyes get like that I can't do anything but go to sleep which I did so thank you all for your concern and now on with the chapter.

LuvAngel448: Men are morons… my ex gave me his bus pass for my birthday one year but he made up for it at Christmas and got me a video of a concert.

PaulineJ: A few times, I glad you are still enjoying it.

DanaJaycee: I thought the return of the hoody and booty bag were long over due, I need a good hoody, hmmm…maybe I could get James (Nate) to break it in for me…lol. I actually haven't decided where I'm going with that just yet but I promise I will get there soon.

Love,
Emily

"That looks familiar." Said Lucas as he noticed the hoody.

"Well it should because it's yours oh, wait sorry mine." Said Brooke as she kissed his cheek.

"Just wait I will get it back someday." Said Lucas as he kissed her back.

"Keep thinking that." Said Brooke.

"I will." Said Lucas as he pulled her closer to him.

"Sure." She said as she melted into his arms.

Brooke and Lucas settled in and watched a movie; in the mean time Brooke was also sketching dresses to email to Karen.

"What are you drawing?"

"Some dresses to show your mom for the wedding, just in case." Said Brooke.

"Cool, so did she give you a color scheme or are you just going black and white for now."

"Just a rough sketching, of something I've had in my brain for a little while." Said Brooke.

"Okay." Said Lucas as he pulled Brooke closer to him with out disturbing her too much.

In Chapel Hill Nathan and Haley were studying and joking around about what movie to watch later when they couldn't study anymore.

"Nathan, I am not watching 'American Pie' again." Said Haley.

"Why?" Asked Nathan.

"Because it's too close to our life, that and whenever I see Stifler he reminds me of Tim and we watched it last night." Said Haley.

"That's true." Said Nathan.

"Yeah, so can we watch something else please?"

"Sure how about 'Braveheart'?" Said Nathan knowing she couldn't resist Mel Gibson in a kilt.

"Okay, let me finish this paragraph and then we can watch." Said Haley.

"Okay."

In Seattle Peyton was just coming in the door with Jenny. As soon as Jenny spotted Jake in the living room she ran over to him as fast as her feet would carry her.

"Daddy!" Said Jenny as Jake picked her up.

"Hey Munchkin did you have fun with Mommy on your girls day out?"

"Yeah, we go to the park and I pwayd on the swing." Said Jenny.

"That's great. Hey Babe, Brooke called you back she said to call either phone." Said Jake as he kissed Peyton.

"Oh okay, why didn't she call my cell?" Asked Peyton.

"I think she was just returning your call in the sense of 'yes, we're still alive and I'll talk to you later' if you know what I mean." Said Jake as he raised an eyebrow at Peyton hoping she would get the point.

"Oh, yeah that's probably why she didn't call the cell." Said Peyton

"Knowing those two that's probably what it was." Said Peyton as she dialed Brooke's phone.

"Hello?"

"Hey ho."

"Hi Peyton.

"So what's up?"
"Nothing I just returned your phone call from yesterday, and now Broody and I are vegging."

"Cool, so how did Parents' Weekend go?"

"Great we had fun, we took them around to all the touristy places then around campus they left here around three to go back home." Said Brooke.

"Nice, so did you decide on the bridal shower or the bachelorette party yet?"

"No, I was actually just thinking of having a small brunch at TRIC or something I don't really see the moms doing what we did at Haley's and aren't showers for people that are like just getting their first place and stuff like that?"

"Yeah, I agree I think we should do the brunch thing why don't you get Hales on the phone to so we can all talk about this." Said Peyton.

"Okay." Said Brooke as she dialed Haley and Nathan's number.

"Hello?"

"Hey Tutor Girl, Goldilocks is on too."

"Hey Brooke, Hi Peyton."

"Hi Hales." Said Peyton.

"So what's up?"

"Karen's shower?" Said Brooke.

"Okay, what about it?" Said Haley.

"Okay, well here is the dilemma, we can't do what we did for yours, but I thought showers were for people who were just getting their first place and needed stuff you know?" Said Brooke.

"Well I agree we can't do my shower, so what are your ideas?"

"Like a quiet brunch at TRIC, very small you know us, Deb." Said Peyton.

"I like that idea. We could ask Deb and Lorna if they would do the invitations out of Karen's address book or something?" Said Brooke.

"I think that's a great idea." Said Haley. "And I can get down there probably next weekend and meet up with them for that."

"Great so you are our organized one Haley can you keep the list of what needs to be done?" Asked Brooke.

"Absolutely let me get a notebook and a pen and I will start that right now." Said Haley.

"Fabulous, should we do like party favors like some thing to remember the day or something?"

"Yeah, I think we should." Said Peyton.

"Okay, did you get that down Hales?"

"Got it, so when do we want to have this?"

"Well, when is the next time we're all together before the wedding Easter right?" Said Peyton.

"Yeah. I think we should do it sometime during that week, that way we're all there and it'll be nice to have some time to plan while we're there so how about Saturday, or is that to close?" Asked Brooke.

"No, I think that's a great idea, we'll all be there already and that way we don't have to rush into town on a crazy weekend to get set up and then have to leave again." Said Peyton.

"Defiantly, I think that is a great idea." Said Haley.

"Okay, so what do you think the boys are going to do for Keith?"

"I have no idea, but Nate and Lucas really don't have a good track record when it comes to bachelor parties."

"That's only because Tim through that one and then had to get bailed out of jail for grabbing the cops ass." Said Haley.

"Only in our group." Said Peyton.

"He's our very own Stifler." Said Haley remembering her earlier conversation with Nathan.

"Yes, he is." Said Brooke.

"Okay well Nathan is glaring at me right now to watch a movie with him so I'm going to go and I'll talk to you tomorrow." Said Haley.

"Must be a Scott thing because Lucas is glaring at me too." Said Brooke.

"Okay I'll talk to you both later then." Said Peyton.

"Bye Peyton." Said Brooke and Haley separately.

"Bye." Said Peyton.

Brooke hung up with the girls and turned her attention to Lucas who was turning on the film that they were going to watch for the night. When he came back to the bed she snuggled up to him and they relaxed together not talking to each other during the movie unless it was to say pass the junk food. They enjoyed the comfortable silence that was going on between them. The next morning and days would be filled with classes and homework for them, but they didn't care as long as they ended up this way at the end of the day in each other's arms it was okay with them.

Nathan and Haley layed on their bed the same way Brooke and Lucas were in Boston. They started watching 'Braveheart' and just enjoying the movie and each other. Every once and a while one of them would ask how long the movie was. But they kept on watching because they both wanted to see the end even though they had both already seen it many times before. They were both sound asleep after the movie ended.

Jake and Peyton put Jenny down to bed after they let her watch 'Cinderella'. The young parents decided that it was now adult time and they settled in to watch something on TV. They both figured it would be a long week and to enjoy the silence while it lasted with Jenny in bed. While they were watching TV Peyton sketched an idea she had for Keith and Karen, Jake didn't mind that she sketched at night because he loved watching her do that.

The parents all arrived home some time after 11 that night and decided to call the kids in the morning so they didn't run the chance of waking them up. Keith dropped Deb and Larry off at Deb's house and then he and Karen made their way to theirs.
