Flashback/
"Mrs Scott, I'm very sorry but Mr Scott's Unit was attacked and their have been no Survivors" The Man in uniform informed brooke
Brooke froze, she was in shock and didn't know what to say, she just had flashes of past memory's pass through her mind.
Flashback/
Lucas was standing at the alter with a huge smile plastered across his face.
Everyone was their, the church was perfect everything brooke imagined.
The song started playing and in walked Lilly in a cute light pink dress throwing peddles down the alter, after her came brooke in a beautiful White dress she had designed herself.
She thought Lucas looked so Handsome, and that Scott Smile had her weak at the knees.
When he reached her, he took her hand, and told her "Baby you look beautiful by the way" kissing her hand
And then the vows came and brooke could still remember all the words from his mouth but the best part was when he said "I do"
Another Flashback/
They were all at the back to school summer Beach party, brooke was flirting with all these guys, She wanted to be exclusive with Lucas but he had broken her heart and she was afraid, she saw Lucas approach looking sexy as hell.
Lucas smiled " I'm the guy for you. I know we're just part-time, and that's cool. You know, do whatever, have your fun. But one of these nights you're gonna realize it; I'm the guy for you Brooke Davis. You'll see. Lucas smiled walking off leaving brooke stunned
That was the night Brooke's heart stopped breaking for Lucas and started repairing, he was fighting for her
Present/
Brooke was having all these flashes through her head, she was pulled from thoughts when she heard a sleepy little girl behind her in her little pink Jammie's
"Mommy" Lyla rubbed her eyes and went straight to protective mode when her mother turned around and had tears in her eyes, she got that from her father
Brooke had tears she didn't even know we're leaking she bent down to her daughters eye level, Lyla whipped her mothers tears away
"What's wrong mommy?"she asked
Brooke kissed her head and stood up
She turned to the two men at her door "where very sorry" they said she thanked them and shut the door
Brooke picked up Lyla and hugged her as tight as she could, she still hadn't said anything she just put Lyla back in bed kissed her goodnight and shut the door
Brooke walked in to her bedroom, she shut the door went straight to the bathroom and turned on the shower waiting for the hot water to run, when it did she sat in the shower and cried to herself
Brooke lay in the dark in the middle of hers and Lucas's bed, former bed, she couldn't believe he wasn't coming home this time. She texted Haley
Hales: I need you here tomorrow morning please, it's important.
Not the usual happy text she would send because truth be told, she couldn't feel anything, she cried her self to sleep.
The next morning Lyla woke up and knocked on her mothers door, it was locked she thought it was strange she never locked it
She knocked again and no answer, then she heard the front door being knocked on, Lyla flicked her long brown hair out of her face and ran down the stairs
Lyla saw her Aunt Haley through the glass, the four year old unlocked the door
"Hey baby, wheres your mom?" Haley said hugging her niece
"Hi aunt haley, I don't know the doors locked" she said sadly
"Oh ok, well how about you watch some TV, and I'll go see her Huh" haley said turning on the cartoons for the little girl, starting to worry after she got that text Late last night.
Haley walked up stairs and knocked on the door
"Brooke, Hello Tigger" she knocked softly again
Haley got a shock when a Messy Brooke Davis, with tear stained cheeks opened the door
"Oh brooke what happened?" Haley said very worried, suddenly Brooke broke down in to her friends arms
"He's... He... He's not... Coming home,... This time" was all haley could here through Brooke's tears
Haley didn't understand " who Lucas what do you mean?" She said sitting her friend down on her bed
"He's gone" she hugged haley tighter
Haley felt a ache in her heart, did she hear right her bestFriend had died
Haley hugged Brooke for a little while longer, she texted Nathan told him to come over straight away, brooke fell asleep in Haley's lap.
Lyla sat on the stairs, she had been Listening to her aunt and mother, she was so confused even though they hadn't said it she knew he was dead and not coming home, she heard the door bell again, she ran down stairs to the front door
"Uncle Nathan, is my daddy not coming home ever again? Is he in heaven with Grandpa ?" Lyla said sad hugging her uncle
"What? Wheres your mom and haley?" He said worried now, he picked up the little girl and sat with her on the couch
He tried to distract her with cartoons and small talk until haley came out with a few tears on her cheeks
She quickly whipped them away "you must be hungry Huh bug" she smiled at Lyla
"Yeah" Lyla got up and went in to the kitchen and sat at the island
"Hales what's going on?" Nathan said taking her hands
"Uh you want Cocopops or CornFlakes?" She said whipping the tears away, if she looked at Nathan or he hugged her she'd brake down.
"Uh Cocos, please" she said
"Ok, here you go" Haley made the cereal and gave her niece the bowl "why don't you sit in the lounge today" Haley tried to smile
"Daddy says I'm not suppose to" she said
Haley was so close to dropping right their " well today you can" she said
"Yay, thanks aunt Haley" the little girl went back in to the living room to watch her cartoons as soon as she was gone haley walked straight in to Nathan's arms and broke down
"Woah Hales, Haley what's going on?" Nathan said worried kissing her head
"It's...lucas..., he ... His unit was ...attacked... There was no ...survivors" she said to her husband, tears flowing
Nathan was in shock, had he heard her was his brother dead "what?" He said in shock his hole body went stiff
"Brooke.. Got the message last... Night, what are we going to do" she said still crying hugging her husband tighter
Nathan didn't know what to say, so he hugged her tighter, they stood their in each others arms for another few minutes before he spoke "Lyla knows" he said sad
"What? I don't think brooke told her yet, she must of over heard us, what do we say?" Haley said sad
"We let brooke tell her, it's not our place" Nathan said kissing her head again
They both walked in to the lounge and saw the little girl sitting their, eyes fixed on the TV eating her breakfast and she didn't even know her world was going to come crashing down
The next few days past, everyone had been informed and they were stopping by to give their condolences
Haley and Nathan had been great organising everything, brooke hadn't really left her room, after she'd told Lyla her heart broke even more and she couldn't speak to anyone. She felt bad she hadn't really talked to Lyla or comforted her but everytime she looked at her daughter she broke every time, and She kept asking questions brooke couldn't answer
Haley was sitting in the couch holding Jaime, he was devastated his uncle was gone, they had been so close, as they lay on Brooke's couch, Nathan and Lyla laid on the other finishing their movie, they heard a knock on the door
Knock knock/
Haley got up and opened the door to a woman that was also like her mother, she felt heart ache when she saw The little girl next to her, this woman had lost the love of her life and now her son.
"Karen" Haley broke down crying
"Oh haley, I know" Karen said with little tears in her eyes
"I'm sorry, I should be comforting you, I'm so sorry about Lucas" she said hugging Karen
Lilly walked in and hugged her Uncle Nathan, jaime got up
"Nana Karen" she 6 year old smiled running over and hugging his nana
"Jaime, you've gotten so big" Karen said with tear in the corner of her eyes, she couldn't believe her son wouldn't be around to see these kids grow up
"Nana" Karen looked up to see the spitting image of Brooke standing their in tights and a light blue top, she looked in her eyes and saw her sons Blue crystal eyes looking back
"Oh sweety come here, I missed you so much" Lyla ran straight in to her nanas arms
Karen held on tight, not wanting to let go of her granddaughter
"Come inside, I'll put the kettle on" Haley said whipping her tear stained face
After the kids were put to bed, Karen walked quietly up the stairs, she needed to see her daughter in law, she loved brooke like her very own and was properly the one person who understood what brooke was feeling even if brooke didn't.
Karen knocked softly on the White door and walked in, she saw brooke sitting at her Vanity looking down at a letter in her hands
"Oh brooke" Karen said
Brooke turned around, she immediately broke down at the sight of the older woman who was like a mother figure to her
"Karen I'm so, so sorry" brooke said Looking away
Karen walked over and put her arms around the young girl
"Do not be sorry, you and Lyla gave Lucas the best days of his life, don't you ever be sorry, he would be proud of you and Lyla, he loved you two, you were everything to him" Karen said tears leaking at the corner of her eyes
"Thank you Karen, for being here, how do you do it, how do I get trough this? I'm not as strong as you" brooke said tears rolling down her cheeks
They both moved over to the bed, Karen put her hands on Brooke's and took a breath "you will get through this, you are Brooke Davis Scott" she said making sure to state the Scott part "you have enough strength in you to fight this pain and hurt, you are the strongest person I know, you have come further then anyone I know, you just have to wait it out, and let the pain heal, for your sake and Lylas, because even though it won't fully heal, it will mend slowly because he will always be with you, in your heart and in Lyla I already see it, when she talks, she speaks with passion like he did, and when she reads she does that thing when she can't read the word, Lucas use to do it too, they kink their eyebrow up, but don't forget brooke he will always be with you" Karen smiled
"Thank you" brooke smiled hugging Karen
"Get some sleep, it's gong to be a big and Emotional day tomorrow and we need our strength" Karen said hugging brooke
Karen left, there was no way brooke was getting any sleep, but she'd try
It was 2am and brooke was still awake, she rolled over and looked to the other side of her bed, it felt cold and empty she missed waking up to Lucas or when he'd just stay awake with her and talk to her for hours
She finally couldn't handle it, she got up and walked in to her closest she needed to find them, she looked everywhere until she saw the box and opened it containing his letters to her and Lyla when she was pregnant.
Lucas started writing his love letters to brooke again. She looked at the first one
"Letter 30 I love you Brooke Davis" it read on the front of the letter
"Steinbeck wrote Remember tonight, for it is the beginning of always.
A promise. Like a reward for persisting through life so long alone.
A belief in each other and the possibility of love.
My dearest PrettyGirl, I'm so glad you decided to give me another shot, I promise I won't screw this up again, I'm sorry i didn't say everything I needed to before but now I want you to know everything, have everything
Have my whole heart because that's what you deserve. I will always Love you Brooke Davis no matter what. Thank you for giving us another shot, your love is all I need, and if in 10 years from now we're still together broke and living on the streets or where apart I'll know in my heart you'll be home to come home too then I'll be happy because I would have you, and that would get me through anything.
Always yours Lucas xoxxx"
