A/N-As I was writing this chapter, I have put in some details that I think are genius. There are a few discoveries and we find out who was really behind the break-up of Julian and Brooke. This chapter is dedicated to Angell4NEPatriots. Hope you enjoy it.

"Who lied?" Brooke asks as she lets Julian into her home.

Julian sat down on the couch and Brooke stood in front of him.

"Alex lied about everything. I never slept with her and she's not pregnant."

Brooke's breathe catches in her throat and she sits down on the chair.

"Are you sure?" Brooke asks as she finally catches Julian's eye.

"Yeah, she admitted it to me and I told her to leave."

"I can't believe she would do that. She ruined EVERYTHING!" Brooke screams.

"I know Brooke."

"Julian, she broke a marriage."

"I know."

"I should have believed you I mean you're not one to commit adultery. I'm sorry I didn't believe you," Brooke says as she starts to cry.

Julian walks over to Brooke and she wraps her arms around him and cries into his shoulder.

"Brooke, it isn't your fault. To be honest if I was in your shoes I would have done the same thing. We just have to move on."

"I don't know how. Julian, we are divorced and we wouldn't be if it wasn't for Alex."

"Love conquers all, baby. Maybe it's time we start over."

Sam turns to Alex who is still sitting on the beach.

"You can't love him."

Alex turns to Sam.

"Who?"

"Julian, you can't love him."

"I know. He loves his wife."

"Because of you his ex-wife why would you do that?"

"I don't know. I just figured that maybe…I don't know."

"I think you do, but you won't tell me. Can I offer you some advice?"

Alex nods her head.

"When you mess with Brulian you're always going to lose. Oh and if Brooke finds you you're screwed," Sam says as she stands up.

"Where are you going?"

Sam smiles down at Alex.

"I have a date."

"Go have some fun."

Sam laughs.

"It's not that kind of date. I don't like you Alex, but I can tolerate you. Brooke won't," Sam says before walking off of the beach.

Alex takes a deep breath and stands up. She pulls out her phone and calls for an answer.

"It's me…I'm done being your guinea pig…I ruined enough lives…I'm done."

Sam walks up to the Scott house and is immediately tackled by James Lucas Scott.

"Sam, I'm glad you are here," Jamie says with a smile.

"I'm glad to be here…come on let's go see what your mother is doing."

Sam and Jamie walk into the house and head straight to the kitchen where Haley is standing with a smile.

"It's good to see you Sam," Haley says as she hugs the girl.

"Good to see you too."

"Sam, I'm going to go get a game we can play, okay?"

"Alright Jamie…I'll be here."

Sam and Haley sit down on chairs and Haley starts talking to Sam.

"How've you really been?"

"Taking it day by day, but there's nothing for me to worry about anymore except for my parents."

"They'll work it out."

"How do they fix it Haley? There divorced you usually don't fix things like that."

Haley sighs.

"When I was married to Nathan my junior year I had this great opportunity to go on the road and sing. I went and our marriage was strained. I came back my senior year and we were separated and there were moments when I felt like maybe Naley were no more. That's when my friendship with Brooke really started. She was there for me and I know that I am going to return the favor for Brooke. Plus, there's no law in the state of North Carolina that states that you can't re-marry your ex-husband or wife."

Sam chuckles and nods her head.

"It's bigger than that Haley. Someone set them up and I want to find out whom."

"So do I kiddo, so do I."

As Brooke and Julian sat on the couch with Brooke's head on Julian's shoulder Brooke starts laughing.

"What's so funny?"

"My life…I think it would make a really great movie."

Julian smiles.

"I'm going to adopt Sam."

"Oh," Julian replies.

"I just don't want to do it by myself."

Brooke lifts her head off of Julian's shoulder.

"We both need to. That's what we wanted. Despite our current situation this is what I want if it's what you want."

"I want that very much."

After a moment of silence Julian speaks up.

"Brooke, can we go back to what it was before?"

Brooke shakes her head.

"I don't think so Julian before is gone, but maybe we can be better."

"We have to start over," Julian states.

"Yep, it's the easiest way. A lot has happened in a year and we can't fix it all at once."

Julian looks at Brooke and smiles.

"There's something that I have wanted to do for over a year."

Brooke raises an eyebrow and leans closer to Julian.

"Is that so?"

Julian nods his head and leans closer to his ex-wife.

Brooke closes in the rest of the way as their lips touch for the first time in over a year. Soft, slow and filled with love.

Julian pulls away with a smile on his face. Brooke followed suit.

"I think I am going to like starting over," Julian says with a grin.

"Me too," Brooke says with a smile.

Paul Norris and Victoria Davis were seated in a dark and quiet corner in a restaurant. Both ordered drinks and were currently talking about their situation.

"It seems we have a slight problem, Victoria."

"I know. Alex wasn't right for the job."

Paul nods his head.

"What do you suggest we do about this?" Paul asks Victoria.

"That's why we are here Paul."

A/N-Just what is up with Paul and Victoria? What do you think of Brooke and Julian's new start or about that fact that they were married before? All drama and it keeps on coming. REVIEW PLEASE!!!
