It had been two weeks since Nathan and Brooke's fight. They hadn't talked since.

Brooke walked past Nathan's house, and paused. Brooke hated walking past his house; it always made her feel weird inside.

She felt a wave of sadness pass through her, and she wanted nothing more to walk into his house, and everything be back to normal.

Brooke continued walking, and soon arrived at Lucas's house.

"Lucas, why did you call me?" She asked letting herself in, "You know I hate leaving the house on extremely hot and sunny days."

Lucas came out of the kitchen, brushing something off his shirt.

"Is that powder?"

"Yeah, I was making us pancakes,"

"Oh, ok," she muttered as she went and sat in the living room.

Lucas came soon after with a breakfast tray in hand. He smiled nervously at her, "Brooke, I want to ask you something,"

Brooke helped him put the tray on the table, as she nodded, "Uh huh,"

"I know this seems a bit fast, and I know how much I've hurt you in the past, but I want another chance with you Brooke,"

"What!" Brooke sighed miserably, "Lucas I can't…"

"Brooke I know why your mad, and I'm really sorry, I know I've been such a jerk, I didn't appreciate you the way you deserve to be appreciated, and I'm sorry… but I don't want to lose you, I will change, and be the best boy friend in the world, I swear to you,"

"Lucas, I don't think I can, you've hurt me so much, that I don't think I can be with you like that again, it took so much for me to trust you again, only to be hurt like that again, with my best friends Lucas, not once… twice, and it's pretty amazing that I forgave you enough to be friends with you, I don't want to go through that with you again Lucas, I liked this, me and you, just friends," she said painfully.

"Brooke, you're hurting, I've caused you so much pain, and then Nathan…" Brooke winced, this was the first time they had brought him up, "But Brooke I really can change, and I can bring that beautiful smile back to your lips that we've snatched away from you,"

"Lucas…"

"At least say you'll think about it… please?"

Brooke nodded, "I have to… go," she muttered, as she got up quickly.

"But what about-…"

"I'm full Lucas,"

"Brooke, I really love you,"

One look in Lucas's eyes, and she knew it was true.

Brooke walked down the street, until once again she was nearing Nathan's house. But this time there was couple outside. Brooke neared the house, hiding behind the neighbor's mini-van.

Brooke's heart jumped when she saw that it was Nathan, she hadn't seen since that horrible day.

He and Haley were standing outside on the driveway in front of Haley's car. Haley whispered something in Nathan's ear that made him smile. Brooke felt a pang of jealousy, as Haley leaned forward and hugged Nathan, and what more, she even kissed his cheek.

Then Haley got in her car, and rolled out of the driveway, and was gone. Brooke felt her eyes get teary, as Nathan watched Haley go with a big smile on his face, and then he turned, and went back into his house.

Brooke came out after awhile. As much as Brooke tried to resist the urge to cry, she couldn't, and soon tears were brimming out of her eyes.

Nathan and Haley!

They were together again…

"Brooke?"

Brooke turned around to see Lucas standing there.

Brooke wiped her eyes, as she ran into his arms.

"Brooke… what's wrong,"

"I love you too Lucas," she muttered into his chest. All the while she couldn't get rid of the image of Haley kissing Nathan out of her mind…

Lucas hugged Brooke tightly. He finally had Brooke back. But a disturbing thought lingered in the back of his head.

He might have her body there with him… but does her have her heart…
