I will update sooner if I get more reviews…..Flashbacks are in Italics

It was Friday night and instead of going out Brooke and Lucas were at home watching Friend's reruns.

Monica: Chandler, in all my life I never thought I would be so lucky as to fall in love with my best, my best...

There's a reason why girls don't do this.

Lucas grinned. He had always pictured himself marrying his best friend. They would live in a big white house-

"I would never be the one propose," Brooke commented interrupting his daydreaming.

"Why not? I mean it is the twenty-first century."

"Yea, but it already all laid out for the guy. He buys the ring and gets on one knee. If I were the one who proposed would I get cheated out of an engagement ring? Because that would suck!"

Lucas chuckled as he listened to her rant. "I'm sure you won't have to worry about it. Anybody would be crazy not to want to marry you." HE said trying to calm her down. But he meant it. There was truly no one like Brooke Davis.

"Thanks, Luke," she smiled showing her dimples.

This was it he was going to tell her how he felt. He was finally going to-

For the second time that night he was interrupted but this time by Brooke's cell phone ringing.

"I'm sorry but I have to go. Maybe we can finish this later?"

He smiled meekly knowing the moment was gone and was hoping for another one to come soon.

Lucas tried to force his eyes open but his whole body was aching. He couldn't remember where he was or what had happened just that he was extremely sore. He was finally able to squint and glanced around the room. He saw Rachel in the chair closest to him, which was odd. They weren't even that close. He scanned the room again looking for his best friend. But the person he had been dreaming about was not present. That day was still fresh in his mind. It had been about a month before and since then they had acted the same. But he had felt a spark that day and couldn't understand why she wouldn't be here.

Maybe she went to get coffee or something he thought to himself as he tried to sit up. His sudden movement must have woken Rachel up because she leaned over and whispered

"Hey handsome, you feeling better,"

"What happened," he asked groggily still trying to remember the events of the night before.

"Well, I guess you got so bored with Brookie you passed out," Rachel laughed.

"So where is Brooke," he said now starting to remember what had taken place.

Rachel contemplated this for a moment. She couldn't lie and say Brooke wasn't here because as soon as Lucas asked the doctors, nurses and even Brooke, he would know she had been in the hospital. On the other hand she couldn't say why Brooke had left because that too would make her look bad.

"The doctor was in here before and was talking about your heart disease. Brooke got really upset that you never told her and ran out of here." She said telling mostly the truth just leaving herself out. Realizing he wasn't going to talk to her she quickly left the room as well.

Lucas sat there thinking about what he could do. Yes, he had lied to her but that was only because he didn't want her to treat him differently. He hoped that she would forgive him and they would be able to get past this but he had a suspicion that it wouldn't be as simple as that.

When Brooke ran out the hospital she didn't know where to go. But she didn't want to be alone right now so went to one of the only people besides Luke she could call a friend.

"Could I come in" Brooke sobbed as Haley opened the front door.

"Of course, Brooke what's wrong? How's Lucas" Haley was worried for her friend.

"What's wrong is that my so-called best friend has a heart condition that he did not find important enough to share with me but told his dear Rachel instead." She practically yelled he tears starting to come to a stop.

"I'm sorry Brooke have you talked to him about it?"

"No, he didn't wake up yet but I just had to get out of there," she said clearly distracted

"So you left him there by himself? What if he wakes up to an empty room?" "He wasn't alone. Rachel was there." Brooke shrugged.

"Wait Rachel was there. Is that how you found out about this "heart disease". Brooke she probably made it all up."

"I thought of that so I asked the doctor if it was true and he said yes." her voice cracking at the end.

"She probably asked him too and that is how she knows. Luke is your best friend not hers so go back and ask him about it not the cheer slut." Brooke laughed at Haley's nickname for Rachel. But she didn't know if she could go back just yet. She was still upset that he hadn't told her and even though Haley made some good points she was going to see how she felt in the morning.
