A/N-This is an important chapter. And it was pretty fun to write so I hope you enjoy. This chapter is dedicated to all you Brulian and Sam lovers.
Brooke Davis stood in her kitchen looking at the papers that were currently in her hand. Every now and then she would glance at Sam who was sitting in the kitchen with a bowl of cereal in front of her.
Brooke Davis is many things. A daughter, a friend, Fashion Designer, but the one thing she wants to be is a mom no matter how she gets there. The papers in her hand and in answer from Sam would make her just that. A mom.
Brooke walks over to the kitchen table and stands on the other side of the table. Sam looks up and raises her eyebrow.
"Sam, can I ask you something?"
Sam looks up at her and nods her head.
"Okay, so I'm kind of nervous because I don't know how you will answer this, but."
"Brooke just ask," Sam says with a smile.
"Sam, I want to ad…"
Brooke's comment was disrupted from the telephone ringing. Brooke sighs and puts the papers on the counter and goes to answer the phone.
"Davis residence, Brooke speaking."
"Miss Davis, this is detective Stewart calling."
Brooke's breath caught in her throat. She looked at Sam and couldn't help, but ask the question.
"You found them right? Did you get them?"
Sam looks over at Brooke.
"We did Miss Davis. You and Sam don't have to worry anymore. I'll be sure to contact you if we need anything else."
"Thank you so much. You have just made my day."
Brooke hangs up the phone and looks over at Sam.
"They caught them Sam. You don't have to worry anymore."
Sam gets tears in her eyes and Brooke walks over to her.
"Sammy, what's the matter?"
"It's over. It's finally over," Sam whispers.
Brooke rubs Sam's back and consoles Sam.
Julian stands in the doorway of his bedroom listening to Alex talk on the phone.
"I think we all forgot to overlook the fact that I can't explain that I'm not pregnant."
Julian stands there in shock.
"You lied to me," Julian states.
Alex's eye goes wide and she hangs up the phone and looks towards the doorway.
"Julian, it's not what it sounds like."
Julian shakes his head.
"Alex, please tell me that you do not ruin my life. Please tell me that I didn't give up the most important thing in my life to choose you."
Alex stands up from the bed and walks over to Julian.
"I'm sorry, but I can't explain it," Alex starts to get tears in her eyes. "I needed money and I made a deal. I'm sorry Julian."
"Tell me I never cheated Brooke!" Julian demands.
Alex wipes the tears from her face.
"You never cheated on Brooke," Alex whispers.
Julian shakes his head.
"Get out of my house."
Alex nods her head and walks out of the house with tears streaming down her face.
Julian takes a deep breath and pulls out his phone.
"Hey, I didn't know who else to call. I need to talk to you."
Sam pulls away from Brooke and smiles at her.
"I think I am going to go for a walk."
"Are you sure? You've barely left this house."
"I'm sure. It's over. I'm free," Sam says with a smile. "There was something you were going to ask me. What was it?"
"Um…it's not important."
"Okay, I'll be home soon."
Brooke smiles as she watches Sam leave the house with her head held high. Brooke grabs the papers off of the counter and puts them in the drawer for another day.
Julian opens the door to his visitor and lets her in.
"Thanks for coming Haley."
"It's not a problem Julian, I left Jamie with Nathan."
"She played me," Julian says point blank.
"What?"
"Alex lied to me Haley. She's not pregnant and I never slept with her."
"How do you know?"
"She told me. I caught on her on the phone talking to someone and she said that she wasn't pregnant. She looked at me and she started crying. Haley, that woman screwed up my life. I should've listened to Brooke when she said she wasn't good."
"Julian, are you sure she is telling you the truth because it's really important."
"I'm pretty sure that she told me the truth today. What do I do now?"
Haley smiles and looks up at Julian.
"You tell Brooke."
"How am I supposed to tell her that?"
"You just are. You two need to talk about this new piece of information."
"Do you think she will take me seriously?"
"It doesn't hurt to try."
Julian nods his head.
"God I hope she can forgive me."
"Apparently there is nothing to forgive you for," Haley says with a small smile.
Sam walks out onto the beach and smiles when she sees a certain someone looking out at the water. Here was her chance to talk to her Alex Dupre.
"Hey, just the person I wanted to yell at," Sam says as she runs up to Alex.
Alex turns around and wipes the tears from her face.
"I don't even know you."
Sam looks at Alex and sighs.
"Are you okay?"
"No, I ruined someone's life because of my lies."
"I knew it."
Alex looks at Sam.
"You're her aren't you?"
"Depends on which her you are talking about."
"Sam."
"The one and only."
"If you want to yell at me just yell because I deserve it. I deserve a hell of a lot more."
Sam grumbles.
"You ruin the fun if you give me permission."
Alex chuckles and the sniffles.
"For what's worth, I'm sorry."
"I'm not the one you should be apologizing to."
Brooke opens her front door when she hears it being knocked on. She opens the door and is in surprise when she sees Julian standing behind it.
"She lied," Julian states with the utmost confidence.
A/N-Now we are getting somewhere. Come on did you actually think I would prolong the whole Alex issue. I hate her. Brulian is way more fun to write for. Hope it was satisfied to your liking. As for the whole Sam and Alex conversation…that played out a little bit differently than I expected, but a part of me senses that Alex and Sam have a little bit in common kind of like a piece of both of them have been missing for awhile. Anyways, that's all I have to write.
What's next for Brooke, Julian and Sam?
What about Brooke's plans for adoption?
How about Sam's parents?
Plenty more to come so stay tuned.
