Chapter 6
It had been a year since Brooke had been told Lucas was dead, she and Lyla had mourned and we're finally at a good place, they thought of him always, especially when Lyla was a mini Lucas in her Actions and little things she did. Brooke and Julian had been hanging out a lot more without Lyla, brooke didn't know if she was even ready for a relationship but she needed to speak to Julian because she couldn't get his smile out of her head and how kind he was with Lyla.
Lyla came running down the stairs, she was in a white jumpsuit brooke had designed in her new line, she'd been back at work for awhile now, she missed it
"Mommy, when's Julian coming over?" Lyla smiled she adored Julian
"He'll be here soon baby, do you want to help set the table" brooke smiled
"Can we have a floor table tonight outside ? Pleasse" Lyla smiled showing her beautiful dimples that matched her mothers
"Ok then sounds fun, grab the mat and put it down on the deck" Brooke said to her daughter smiling
"Yay, julian will love it" Lyla smiled opening the draw and grabbing the mat out , she opened the doors that over looked the beach and dock where all the boats stayed and set it down, she grabbed three plates and cups and set them up
Brooke smiled at her daughter she was the little romantic like her father, Brooke's heart ached in a good way
Their was a knock on the door and in walked julian
"Julius" Lyla laughed as she ran over and hugged him
"Hey buddy, how's it going?" He smiled messing her hair up as he walked in he looked at brooke she looked beautiful wearing her faded tight jeans and a grey long sleeve top, her hair was up loosely in a bun but their was two strings of hair falling out and she had a little sauce on her cheek, Julian just smiled
"Hey brooke, smells good" he smiled with that Baker grin of his as he walked over to her
"Hey, thanks " brooke said smiling
"How was your flight?" She smiled
"Ah uncomfortable" he laughed leaning on the bench next to her "their was a kid behind me kicking my seat the whole time" they laughed
"That's rough" she joked back
"Julian, want to see my new Shirt, uncle skills bought it back for me from LO" she smiled
"You mean LA baby" brooke smiled
"Yeah that place" she smiled
"Yeah of course dude, show me" he smiled, the little girl ran up the stairs to her bedroom
"She's so funny" he laughed eating a tomato out of the bowl
"Uh hey, wait for dinner, which by the way is outside tonight my friend" she playfully hit his hand
"Okay okay, but you have a little something on your, let me get it" he said as he looked in to her eyes as he whipped the mess of her cheek.
Brooke looked in to Julians eyes she was feeling mixed emotions, julian pushed a strand of hair from her face, he went to lean in when He heard the steps of a little girl coming down the stairs
"Look how cool is this?" Lyla was standing in a basket ball jumper for the LA lakers, the jumper had her fathers number 3 on it and was way to big for her, she loved it
Julian laughed "dude that's awesome" he smiled
"Thanks" she smiled
Brooke walked over and lifted it off her "ok it's dinner time, go wash up silly" brooke smiled she turned around to julian "I was talking to you" she smiled jokingly walking back in to the kitchen
"Come on I'm hungry" julian laughed lifting Lyla off to the bath room
Brooke set the food on the deck, she smiled at the set up her daughter had done, she heard laughter as the door opened
"Wow this looks so good" julian smiled sitting down on the deck
"This view is beautiful brooke" he said looking out to the sunset and ocean
"Yeah we love it" Lyla smiled sitting down between julian and brooke
"We do, ok baby lets eat" brooke smiled at Julian as she sat down
They were enjoying their dinner together, julian kept glancing at brooke and she saw him she smiled every time
"Mommy am I still going to Aunt Haley's tomorrow" Lyla smiled eating her pasta
"Yeah you excited to hangout with naley and Jaime and Lydia?" Brooke smiled
"Yeah uncle Nathan's going to take me and Jaime to the river court" Lyla said happy
Brooke stopped eating, she hadn't been to the river court in a year, she wanted to so badly, but couldn't face it, she forgot Lyla likes to go to her daddy's place, she felt bad she had not taken her but she was glad Nathan and skills had
"Sounds fun" Julian smiled stopping the silence
They finished eating and julian played with Lyla while brooke watched sipping her wine on the couch, they laughed, the sound of Lylas laugh bout a memory to Brooke's mind
FLASHBACK/
"Daddy stop it, I can't stop laughing" Lyla said cuddled in to her father on his bed as he tickled her
Brooke walked in" what is going on in here" she smiled
"Daddy keeps tickling me mommy, make him stop" Lyla said laughing
Her laugh was like Lucas's and it lit up Brooke's world
"How about we tickle mommy" Lucas smiled at his daughter
"No how about we tickle you" Lyla smiled laughing as brooke ran over and jumped on the bed next to Lucas as her and her daughter ticked him
They took a breath and stopped, Lyla lay in the middle of her parents, she was tired from laughing
"Daddy have you finished your next book yet?" Lyla said
"Not yet baby soon" Lucas smiled taking hold of Brooke's hand and kissing it
"What's it about?" Lyla asked curious
"You'll have to wait and see" he smiled
"Anyways what's with the questions smarty pants" he said tickling her again
Present/
Brooke loved their laugh, she then remembered he hadn't finished his book and that made her sad, she was bought out of her head by Lyla
"Ay mommy, Julian smells" she laughed again
"Hey" Julian said pretending to be a fended
"Ok I think it's time for bed missy" brooke smiled
"Mommy a little longer" Lyla moaned
"Not tonight you have a big day tomorrow, say good night to Julian" brooke said
"Ok, bye julian, thank you so much for tea darling" Lyla said in a high voice pretending to be British and then she laughed
"Well thank you your highness" Julian said back in a British accent
Lyla threw her hands around julians neck hugging him
"Have fun tomorrow" he smiled as brooke held her hand walking up the stairs
Julian got up and Cleaned up the dishes while brooke put Lyla to bed
Lyla jumped up on her bed and in to her covers, she smiled as brooke walked over
"Mommy is julian your boyfriend?" Lyla laughed
Brooke was taken back by lylas question "No why?" Brooke said sitting on the bed next to her daughter "what makes you say that?" She asked
"Because he gives you the same look daddy does, did" she said looking in to her mothers eyes
"You know I will always love your daddy right" brooke said
"Yeah me too" she smiled
"and sometimes after awhile, people get lonely without other adults and well what do you think? Do you understand"Brooke said
The little girl had a think then smiled " I think it would be cool" she smiled
"Okay miss questions get some sleep, I love you" brooke said kissing her daughters head and tucking her in
"Mommy, I'm glad Julians here" brooke turned around and smiled
She shut the door and walked down the stairs
Julian was washing the dishes
"What are you doing? Leave them" Brooke smiled walking over
"No you made dinner I'll wash" he smiled as he continued washing
"Your our guest" she smiled sipping her wine
"Ok how about I'll wash you dry and you tell me about how your company's going" he smiled handing her the dish cloth smiling with that sexy grin of his
"Deal" she said they did the dishes and cleaned up then sat on the couch pretty close
They talked for a few hours and flirted a lot
"So your moving back? Wow big step, that'll be good I mean Lyla loves having you around" brooke said taking a sip of her wine
"Yeah I bought a sound stage here and we just need the perfect script, and I'm glad she's the best little kid, she makes me laugh" he smiled taking a sip of his wine
"Julian I just wanted to say, Thank you for always being here, for Lyla and for me" brooke smiled as they looked in to each other's eyes
"Always brooke you don't have to thank me" he said
"No I do, so thank you" she said in that raspy sexy tone
They looked in to each other's eyes, brooke was so nervous she hadn't been with anyone in a year let alone kissed anyone, so many thoughts were running through her mind, should she kiss him,should she not, what would Lucas say, what would anyone say
"So can I get you anything else to drink or?" Brooke said smiling
"Uh Id love to but I should properly get going, um this was nice brooke" he said putting his wine glass down and fidgeting with his hands
"Yes it was" brooke smiled putting her wine glass down " Julian what was this?" She smiled at him
He looked in her eyes "um we should properly just say it was what it was" he smiled his grin on full form as he looked in to her green eyes that matched his
Their was an awkward silence, then julian spoke " I'll see myself out" he smiled and went to leave
Brooke blew out the candles and then looked up and julian was standing right in front of her , she couldn't stop looking at his smile
"I don't want to pressure you, I mean there's Lyla to think about and I think we should just be" he was cut of by brooke
"Friends" she said trying to convince him and herself she said still watching the way his eyes looked at her
"We can't just, I mean I kiss you and then it gets" he was cut of again
"Defiantly it would be" she said now cut of by him
"It would be" he said convinced it could work just by looking at her smile
"Yes" she smiled walking in closer to Julian, he wrapped an arm around her waist and then put a hand on her cheek, he leant down and kissed her lips softly again and then again
