Brooke felt her heart jump as she heard the words she longed for, "Wow… I would love to," he said.
Brooke smiled, "Uh wow, ok," she said, trying to sound casual.
They both nodded at each other then looked back at the ones they once loved. They walked down to them, "Uh we're tired, so we're going to get home, okay," Nathan said for the both of them.
"Ok," they said slowly, the disappointment evident on there face.
And with that they all piled into the car again…
The next morning Nathan woke up early, he was taking Brooke out today!
Nathan pulled on a white t-shirt, and black baggy shorts. Then sat in front of the TV until it was finally three; they were going to stop by at the café then go see a movie and finish off by going to one of the finest restaurants in Tree Hill.
Brooke felt jitters in her stomach; she couldn't believe she had asked, and he had agreed, and that it was today.
Even though they went out often as friends, today it was a date!
She looked in the mirror; she had just taken a bath and was still in her robes, trying to decide what to wear.
She looked in her closet, examining everything. She finally decided upon a white tank top, with a leather black mini skirt.
She put on light make up and pulled her hair up in a messy bun. She looked at herself in satisfaction, and picked up her purse on her way down. She saw Nathan walking up through the window, so she opened the door before he was on the porch.
"Hey," she beamed at him.
"Hey yourself, you look great," he winked, as he stuck out the flowers he had behind his back.
"Aw, their my-…"
"Favorite, I know," he said proudly.
She grinned at him as she put them in a vase and came out beside him.
Brooke looped her arm with his, as they walked to the café not to far away, when they got in, Nathan grabbed the menu.
He looked up at Brooke offering it to her.
Brooke shook her head, "I just had lunch,"
"So did I, but one little snack," he grinned, as he ordered a cheeseburger. Brooke watched as he gulped that down in a few big bites, and had the menu back in his hands in no time.
He looked at the snack section with interest.
"A snack, eh?" Brooke teased amused.
Nathan laughed, "Well guys have to be big and strong, and they don't just feed their stomachs, we have to feed our massive muscles as well," he said, as he posed for her, showing off his muscles.
Brooke threw her napkin at him smiling.
"The chocolate cake looks awesome, but so does the supreme pie?" he said thoughtfully.
Brooke rolled her eyes giggling.
Nathan ended up ordering the chocolate cake and the 'supreme' pie.
"That's not fair, boys are such pigs, they eat all they want and don't gain an ounce, while girls gain weight just looking at food!" Brooke complained pouting.
Nathan snickered, "Don't let it get you bitter," he saw her expressions, "C'mon Brooke you won't get fat, and gaining some weight won't hurt you at all,"
She still sulked.
"You know you waaaan' it," he said mocking the miracle whip commercial, while Brooke watched painfully as he put a piece of chocolate cake in his mouth teasingly.
"Ok fine," she gave in, and pointed to the chocolate cake.
He took a spoonful and brought it to her lips. She grinned as she opened her mouth and took it from him. Then picked up the spoon from the pie's plate, and took a piece, feeding it to him.
For the rest of the time, they ended up laughing as they fed the food to each other getting everyone's attention around them.
"Oh Shit Brooke," Nathan said suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Brooke panicked.
"I think… you gained one tenth of an ounce."
Brooke gaped, and hit him with her purse, "Oh god Nathan,"
"No seriously," he said with mock seriousness, "Your bloating by the second, we gotta hurry before we can't get you out of that door,"
"I hate you," Brooke squealed laughing, as she got up after Nathan paid, and she started to walk away from him.
Nathan caught up to her laughing, "Broooooooooke,"
"Don't talk to me," she said trying to contain her laughter.
"You would be hot no matter what," he said tickling her.
She laughed trying to get out of his grasp, "Ok, ok, Nathan-…" she gasped, she was laughing so hard she couldn't breath.
"Say you are talking to me," he said pouting, "…and say Sorry,"
"I'm talking to you," she said quickly when he finally stopped tickling her but she was still in his arms, "…hey why would I be sorry,"
"For hurting my feelings," Nathan pouted, tickling her again.
"Ok, sorry," she breathed out, still laughing even when he stopped.
She noticed how quiet he was, and looked up at him, she saw him looking at her, and their eyes locked.
"Nathan-…"
He gave her a peck on her lips, "No more talk," he said, as he kissed her again.
All Brooke could think was 'wow', Haley was right all those times she bragged about his kissing.
They kissed each other passionately, letting their feelings for each other show to the other, and everyone that saw.
If it were up to them, they would've stayed like that forever, but unfortunately it wasn't and they heard Brooke's phone ring.
They stopped kissing, as they got breath back.
"Ignore it," Nathan muttered still breathing hard.
"Nathan you know I can't, I was expecting an important call from my parents,"
Nathan groaned as he let her go, she pecked his lips lightly as she flipped open the phone.
"Hello,"
"Brooke?"
"Yeah,"
"It's me Lucas,"
"I know, what's wrong," she said, noticing how worried he sounded. Nathan moved away from her, taking a call of his own.
"I really need you right now," he breathed out.
"What's wrong, Lucas?" she asked concerned.
"I'll tell you when you get here, just come quick, it's really important,"
"Um I'm with Nathan, we could be over soon-…"
"Brooke we have a basketball game tomorrow, and he took time out of his practice to be with you, so I don't want to waste his time, just tell him to go practice," Brooke nodded slowly, hearing how pained his voice sounded, "…Oh and Brooke, don't tell him your coming to meet me, he probably wouldn't like that, and want to come along, while he should really be practicing, but come fast please, I'm at your house,"
With that, Lucas cut it, leaving Brooke with a confused expression.
"Who was that?" Nathan inquired coming up.
Not knowing what to say, "Who was that?" she asked him back.
"Oh it was the coach, he told me to practice hard," Nathan said rolling his eyes.
"You should go practice Nathan, because I have to get home to…"
"What? Why?" he pouted.
"…It was… my parents, and its important, so…"
"Okay, fine," he moaned.
"Don't worry sweetie, tomorrow after the game, we will continue our date," she said as she kissed him on the cheek and walked away quickly, wanting to run, but knew that would make it suspicious.
When she was out of Nathan's sight, she started to run, Lucas's worried voice made her really uneasy.
She saw her house, and Lucas was sitting on the porch with his hand on his chest.
"Oh god Lucas, are you okay?" she asked concerned.
"Uh, I was practicing for basket ball… ah shit… and I started feeling pain, I need my medicine, that I left at your house before… uhh…everything,"
"Oh my god, I'm so sorry, I didn't even know I still had it, let me get them, I mean…I should take you in with me… can you walk, should I call the doctor," Brooke panicked, talking more to herself.
"No… just help me inside, I need my medicine,"
"Okay…uhh" she helped Lucas up and let him put his arm over her shoulder for support.
She took him to the sofa, and then ran into her kitchen opening all the cupboards until she found it. She quickly filled a cup of water, and ran to him.
"Here," she said taking a tablet out and putting it in front of his mouth and put it in when he parted his lips weakly.
Lucas took his medicine, and calmed down after a while, "I think the pain's lessening." He muttered.
"How did you get here?"
"I was on the basketball courts near by, when I felt the pain start, so I rushed over here,"
"Oh god, I'm so sorry, if something had happened to you," she said, as she shut her eyes to keep the tears in, but they pooled around her eyelids anyways.
"Brooke its okay, you didn't know, besides this isn't your fault, it was my irresponsibility, I should have made sure my medicine was at my place, and…"
Brooke still looked teary, and it melted Lucas's heart, as he got off the sofa and brought Brooke into a hug.
She hugged him tightly, her tears spilling on his shirt, "I just… the way I saw you on my porch, it looked like I was going to lose you, you were in so much pain that-…"
"It's okay Brooke, I'm fine now," he soothed, as he kissed her forehead.
Nathan was back on the courts practicing, but couldn't get his mind off Brooke. He couldn't concentrate.
He stopped playing, and decided to go over to her house.
Who cares about practicing, he'll be fine tomorrow, and instead of wasting time here, he should get his ass over to her place.
"Plus, whatever it is that's so important with her parents, I won't get in the way, I'll wait until they're done." He mumbled to himself, as he broke into a run.
In no time he was in front of Brooke's house, he smiled looking at it; he couldn't wait to get the girl that lived here in his arms.
He jogged up to the house, but something caught his eye in the window for the living room.
Brooke was already in someone's arms.
…It was Lucas…
Nathan felt his smile disappear.
A part of him wanted to go into the house and beat the crap out of Lucas, and tell Brooke off.
But then decided against it.
'She's not worth it, she'll always love Lucas, and I'm just her play thing to make Lucas burn,' he thought bitterly.
He shook his head at the sight, and then turned and walked away…
