Hey Guys
Well we had a snow day today. Two more days and I am done with college forever. YAY! I can't wait it has been a long 9 months. Writing this story is therapy to me, and I am so glad you guys have taken the time to join me.
Brucas03: Well I figured that they had to be mellow a little considering the couple. That and I couldn't figure what else to do with them considering the age of the people planning them.
PaulineJ: Thank you, the show just makes them so easy, to tap into. I find it easier to write for Brucas, than the other characters for some reason maybe because when I write for Brooke in particular I write things for her to say that I usually think but bite my tongue on. And I read a lot like Luke does so there you go.
DanaJaycee: I know absolutely nothing about cars except the radio, ignition, windows, and wipers. Other than that I don't know anything about the innards. I enjoyed your chapter earlier, too.
mags0607: Thank you, I try to make it sweet with out really over indulging into sickening sweetness.
LuvAngel448: Me too, I just wish they would bring him back on the show now.
quenbee84: Thank you I'm glad my writing makes you so happy. I love it when the stories I read get updated.
Love,
Emily
(Mark Schwann and the WB own the characters depicted in this story I don't own anything… I wish I could say I owned the show but I don't)
The next morning was Easter and Brooke and Lucas both woke up at the same time. Lucas noticed there was something off in the room, that's when he looked down on the floor and notice the rabbit feet cut outs that led out the door.
"You'd think they thought we were to old for this now." Said Lucas as he lay back down on the bed.
"Oh, shut up it's sweet. I didn't really get to do this kind of stuff growing up unless Larry did it. So the fact that your mother took the time to do this for us is sweet." Said Brooke putting on the hoody over her tank top.
"I know, I just didn't think she would do it this year with us in college now." Said Lucas.
"Honey, your mom will always do stuff like this for us no matter how old we get." Said Brooke as she kissed him.
"I know I think they're planning an Easter egg hunt for Jenny later at Deb's." Said Lucas.
"I think the parents just like having a child around that will humor them and do whatever they say." Said Brooke with a laugh.
"That is probably true." Said Lucas.
"I think we should humor the adults and make our way out to the kitchen." Said Brooke.
"Okay, let's go Cheery." Said Lucas as he got up off the bed.
They made followed the trail of rabbit prints to the living room where they found two baskets that had their names on them. They were surprised, but in order to really show it they needed to wake up first with coffee.
"Morning guys Happy Easter." Said Karen as she nursed her coffee.
"Happy Easter!" Said Brooke.
"You want some breakfast?" Asked Karen.
"Karen we can get our own breakfast, sit down and finish your coffee." Said Brooke.
"No, I want to do this honey, I don't get to do this that often anymore and I miss it." Said Karen.
"Really Mom, we can grab some cereal." Said Lucas.
"Lucas, sit down and drink your coffee, I'm making you guys breakfast and that is the end of this discussion." Said Karen.
"Okay, so where's Keith?"
"Over at Deb's with Larry and Bruce hiding Easter Eggs." Said Karen.
"Honestly I think they do these things more for themselves than Jenny." Said Lucas.
"Well just so you know you six are allowed to participate also." Said Karen.
"Really, well some one has to get them out of the trees for Jenny." Said Brooke.
After they finished their breakfast and Keith returned and the kids opened their baskets, which included so much candy, you would think it was Halloween. Both of them also got gift certificates to Barnes and Noble. They then headed over to Deb's house where they ate some of Nathan and Haley's candy in the early morning.
It was now late morning and everyone gathered out side to have the Easter Egg hunt, they all decided to help Jenny find the eggs giving her most of theirs. At one point while looking for an egg Lucas spotted one in one of the tree branches and he wondered how the fathers had gotten it up there in the first place.
"Brooke!" Yelled Lucas.
"Yeah?"
"Come here." Said Lucas.
"What I was walking with Jenny." Said Brooke wondering why he was just standing around.
"Look up in the tree branch above you." Said Lucas.
"How in the world did they get that up there?" Asked Brooke.
"I have no idea, but help me get it down and I'll spilt it with you."
"You're on and it better be something good."
"Okay put your foot in my hands." Said Lucas.
"Okay." Said Brooke as Lucas hoisted her up to get the egg.
"What are those two doing?" Asked Lorna.
"Damn. He found it." Said Keith.
"Found what?" Asked Karen.
"There's an egg in that tree, and my guess is he found it and needs Brooke to help him get it down."
"You put an egg in the tree." Asked Deb.
"Yeah, took us four tries to get it there but we did." Said Keith.
"Got it?" Asked Lucas.
"Yeah, put me down now." Said Brooke as she picked up the plastic gold egg.
"Open it up." Said Lucas.
"Lucas, they put a twenty in here." Said Brooke.
"They really must not have wanted that one found." Said Lucas.
"It's our twenty now." Said Brooke.
"I say we go to Mario's when we get back on the Dads." Said Lucas.
"I'm there." Said Brooke as she left to go help Jenny again.
"What did you put in that egg?" Asked Lorna.
"Twenty bucks." Said Bruce.
"You guys are too much." Said Deb.
Nathan and Haley had found another gold egg that also held twenty bucks near some rocks, as did Jake and Peyton who found theirs on the wood stack that Deb had. The fathers knew that this would be the only way their children would openly except any money that they didn't earn themselves or for school. Especially the boys.
There were 3 golden eggs placed through out the property, so that each couple would find it. It was known that the metallic colored eggs were for the big kids and the neon colored ones were for Jenny. Also Jenny's were in her line of sight while the metallic ones were hidden a little higher.
It was now later that afternoon and everyone had counted up how many eggs they all had and how much change and bills they all had. Amazingly they all ended up with the same amount of eggs courtesy to the fact that the Dads made sure that they had enough out there that they all would.
Later on in the evening they all sat down and had their dinner after Whitey had come over and complained about his team and how he wished that Lucas, Nathan, and Jake didn't graduate the year before. But at the same time he was saying he was proud of them for going out and making their lives for them and not anyone else.
