Chapter Four: So What's The Plan?

Brooke and Lucas had been avoiding each over that last two weeks, they would always come up with excuses not to be around each other and when they were they wouldn't even think about standing ten feet next to each other. Nathan and Haley sat at the round picnic table, Haley was watching Brooke come out of the school and she looked as if she was heading there way. Haley and Brooke had became really close friends over the last two weeks and Brooke couldn't exactly figure out why, she knew Lucas and Haley were best friends, he could've been using Haley to check up on how she was doing.

Brooke sat down across from the couple and smiled, "What's up Naley?"

"You and these nicknames," Haley laughed rolling her eyes at Brooke's latest creation. "We've been pretty good, still happily married, right Nate?"

"Right baby," Nathan kissed Haley on the forehead causing Brooke to smile, she wanted something like their relationship, but she never really been in a relationship for longer than a week. "So how's school Davis?"

"Well I still need a tutor and I was wondering if Haley could help me," Brooke look at Haley with pleading eyes. "I'm failing English and if I don't get my grades up my parents are going to have a fit and cut off my allowance. It's weird how they never want to see me but as soon as I fail a class they go in parental mode and cut off all my credit cards."

Haley laughed at her last comment, "I'm sorry Brooke, I can't do it, but I already asked someone I know that can help you, he never failed English over the course of his life and he's really smart."

"Please don't let it be some nerd," Brooke looked at Haley as she shook her 'no'. "Great I am in desperate need of help and I am about to flunk English, Haley you totally rock, thank you so much!" Brooke reached over the table and pulled Haley into a hug causing Haley to smile slightly surprised.

"So after practice I'm guessing that you can maybe drop by the tutoring center and he'll be there," Haley advised Brooke. "I'll be at the Cafe working so I'll won't have time to introduce you two but you probably already met, so just make sure you arrive on time because sometimes he can be a real asshole."

"Well that's okay cause I can be a real bitch," Brooke smiled as she got up and headed back into the school.

Nathan turned to Haley confused, she didn't have to work at the Cafe, she was off that day and she would be free all afternoon. "Hales, I thought you weren't doing anything after school?"

"I'm not but I needed a way to put Brooke and Lucas together and I plan on locking them in tutor room after school," Haley explained to her husband wrapping her arms around his waist, he gave her a confused look. "It wasn't even my idea it was really Rachel's, she wants them to hook for some apparent reason and I told her I would help her."

"Girls are weird," Nathan laughed shaking his head.

"Well you should of thought about that before you married one," Haley smiled placing a soft kiss on his lips, she pulled back grinning slightly. "Now what were you saying about about girls?"

"They're god greatest gift to man," Nathan replied laughing as his wife joined in on it. "I love you, Haley James Scott."

"I love you too, Nathan Royal Scott."

Brooke walked into the tutor center after practice, she was grateful that she hadn't ran into Lucas after practice. He had left early but she couldn't figure out where to, she took a seat at the table that currently had two English book lying on the desk. She waited for her tutor to arrive noticing that they were a couple minutes late, she tapped her finger on the desk in frustration. Where the hell was her tutor?

"Sorry I'm late," he walked into the room setting down his book bag. "Wait, Brooke!"

"Lucas," Brooke smiled nervously, she was going to kill Haley after this was over. "Haley never told me you were my tutor, if told me I would of refused."

"I could leave if you want me to," Lucas shrugged as Brooke hadn't said anything. "I guess I will get going."

Lucas felt hurt, she really didn't want anything to do with him and all he wanted to do was be her friend and work up to a relationship. He reached for the door as he began to pull it, the door wouldn't open, Lucas kept pulling at it causing Brooke to give him a weird look.

"The door is locked!"

"What do you mean locked?" Brooke asked walking over to him as she pushed him aside trying to pull the door. "Damn it don't you have key or something? What idiot makes a door that you can lock only lock from the outside and can't open from the inside? Aren't there like laws against that?"

"I don't know," Lucas didn't really know the legal system. "I guess we're stuck."

Brooke noticed the smile form on Lucas face, "Don't smile, I would rather be stuck here with anyone else but you."

Lucas nodded his head and walked away to the back of the room, Brooke could notice the slight pain on his face and she felt kind of bad for being such a bitch to him. He was actually trying to change and be nice, which was probably something very hard considering he was one the biggest jerks she had ever met. She walked over to the table Lucas was sitting at and placed a her hands on top of his trying to flash a smile, she met Lucas eyes but they weren't as sweet and sincere as they had been a few minutes ago, he pulled his hand anyway.

"I don't need your pity," Lucas spat at her. "After we get out of here you can get a new tutor like you wanted and we can just go back to pretending like we never knew each other. It's obvious that what you want."

"But it's not," Brooke whispered so low that Lucas was unable to hear what she said.

"What was that?"

"Look your right, us arguing leads nowhere," Brooke finally gave in. "I don't know if this can work out but maybe we can be friends you know?"

"Whatever," Lucas shrugged as if he didn't care. "So you want help or not?"

"Sure," Brooke said softly as reached over to book bag and pulled out a book. "Romeo and Juliet, how good are you with Shakespeare?"

"You have no idea, pretty girl" Lucas grinned slightly as Brooke shot him a smile.

"But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, who is already sick and pale with grief that thou, her maid, art far more fair than she." Brooke recited. "I don't get what does that mean?"

"Well basically, Romeo is trying to give Juliet a compliment," Lucas explained.

"What ever happened to your beautiful?"

Lucas laughed at her comment, "He could of said that but it wouldn't have much meaning, he basically saying that Juliet, the sun, is more beautiful and brighter than the moon which he personify as 'sick and pale with grief'. Anyone could say that someone is beautiful but at least this way you know he meant it, he chose his words carefully and showed her how beautiful he really think she is."

"Wow, never knew you were such a bookworm," Brooke smiled looking back at her book. "I'm really beat and if I study anymore my head will explode, how are we even going to get out of here?"

"You got a credit card or something?" Lucas asked as Brooke went to her wallet and pulled out her 'Master Card'. Lucas walked over to the door, Brooke looked at him questioning and before she knew it she heard a 'click' and the door was opened. "Let's get out of here."

"How did you do that?" Brooke lifted up her book bag and walked over to Lucas.

"Don't tell me your actually surprised," Lucas smiled at Brooke leading her into the hallway. "What's really surprising is the fact that you didn't know how to do it."

"Who said I didn't?" Brooke sneered at him causing him to laugh, she grabbed her credit card from him. "I just didn't want to mess up my credit card which you obviously did but I'll let it slide if you give me a ride home."

"I don't know," Lucas shrugged jokingly. "I don't usually give hookers a ride."

"Well I don't usually get into car with jerks," Brooke punched him the chest playfully. "But there's a first time for everything right?"

"Whatever," Lucas said all nonchalant. "Come on pretty girl, let's go."

"Lead the way, broody." Brooke said clinging onto his arm.

"I told you," Lucas said as they walked side by side, Brooke looked up at him confused. "I said that you will fall for me and you already are and don't say your not because I can see it your eyes."

"Shut up," Brooke laughed, maybe he was right and she was really falling for him? Or maybe he's just a jerk who would end up playing with her emotions? "When and if I do 'fall' for you, you will definitely know."

"Well just to let you," Lucas stopped and looked down at her. "I've already fallen for you."

He noticed a smile form on her face, he walked into the parking lot leaving her with just those few last words. She followed him to his car and he opened the passenger seat for her, "Oh my, what a gentleman?" Brooke placed her hands on her chest jokingly, Lucas rolled his eyes and let a laugh escape his lips.

"Who said chivalry was dead?"

"Everyone." Brooke smirked as Lucas entered the car.

"Shut up." Lucas shook his head.

"Are you going to make me?" Brooke asked flirtatiously.

"You are one serious tease, Brooke Davis."

Lucas pulled up in front of his house, he looked at Brooke who pouted a little, she didn't like the fact that she was going to have a few extra steps to her house. He laughed at the brunette who was still pouting, she punched him in the arm causing him to grab it letting out a slight groan.

"What was that for?" Lucas looked over at Brooke confused.

"Now I have to walk more steps thanks to you," Brooke rolled her eyes at him. "You love seeing me suffer don't you."

"Sort of," Lucas grinned. "But if you would've let me explained, I wanted to walk you to your door."

"Aw...I feel bad about hitting you now," Brooke rubbed his arms sympathetically. "Well not really."

"That makes me feel so much better," Lucas pulled away from Brooke. "I guess since chivalry is dead you can open that door yourself."

"Well it can be resurrected, right?" Brooke began to pout again, she noticed Lucas get out the car and walk over to her side of the car, he opened the door and helped her slowly get out of the car. "Thanks broody, who would have figure an ass like you could be so nice!"

"And who would of figured a bitch like you would be so hot," he shot back at her causing her laugh. "Is this like the third laugh of the day? It's a miracle, she smiles!"

"Are you going to walk me to my door or not?" Brooke asked as she once again cling onto his arm, he lead her to the red door with the shiny golden knob. "We should do this more often, you know?"

"Do what?"

"Be friends."

"I thought we were friends?" Lucas asked softly.

"Yeah, but we should be friends," Brooke kisses him on cheek before she enters her house. "I'll catch you later, Lucas Scott."

"I'll catch you later, pretty girl."

Authors Response:

BabyBlueBrooke03- Thanks for reviewing, I had to make Rachel and Brooke related because I wanted them to have a long history together and soon it's going to work into a chapter that leads into a very cute Brucas scene. Brooke and Lucas are going to have so much tension and they will work out a friendship before they get into an actual relationship so I hope you can wait a little longer.
