Fishbowl Diaries
Chapter 33
Days Later
The River Court
Lucas was off for the day. With Lilly at school. He decided to keep Nixon home for the day. In an attempt to break down the silence and distance that had taken place between them.
"We can do whatever you want. You wanted to come here. Yet you aren't playing basketball or even talking to me. When is this whole silent treatment going to end Nix.? I miss you." Lucas admitted.
"There is nothing to miss. I haven't gone anywhere." Nixon replied.
"You have been freezing me out. Everyone who is close to us can see that. And i hate it. What can i do fix things between us.?" Lucas questioned.
Nixon looked to Lucas. "I care about Richard. He's a good guy. A decent guy. He loves me. He's my father. I want to live him. I'm going to live with him."
"Nobody is the enemy here. All Richard has ever wanted was to be you're friend but you couldn't let it happen. You just had to make him the bad guy. We missed out on years together it's time to repair that." He announced.
Lucas felt his stomach sink. "That isn't happening! I don't care what he's told you. And i treat him the way i do. Because he is a bad guy!"
"He's using you to get back at me. He doesn't know the first thing about being a father." Lucas exclaimed.
"Leave me alone! I hate you! I hate you for ruining this for me!" Nixon exclaimed. As he left the court.
...
Lucas found Brooke at her home. Sketching and drinking wine. It was evening the sun was setting.
She was surprised to see. But his presence in her home was never not welcome.
When he kissed her. It was different then the others they had shared.
Brooke kissed him back. Pulling him closer her fingers digging into his back.
He kissed and bit her neck. Before his hands went up her blouse.
Brooke's heavy breathing filled his ears.
Brooke reached for his shirt. She looked into his eyes. And at his face. Wanting to make sure this was what he wanted.
Lucas reached for her hand. And lead the way up the stairs to her bedroom.
He closed and locked the door behind them. Tacking off his own shirt. Before reaching for her blouse. Taking it off slowly.
"I love you." He said. Matter of fact.
"I love you too." Brooke said.
The couple carefully finished undressing each other. Before Brooke found herself unable to hold off any longer.
Brooke kissed him.
Lucas laid her on the bed carefully before entering her core.
"Lucas!" Brooke called softly. As she felt him move inside of her.
Their bodies joined as one. Was more beautiful and life changing then either of them could explain.
Lucas reached for light to turn it off but soon realized he wanted to see her. How she reacted to his kisses and his touches.
Lucas decided just for tonight. He would let go and just be in love.
