When Lucas pulled out of the hug from his mom. He went to each person in the room and was given a hug. When he sat down beside Brooke again on the bed, they were asked the question they knew was coming

"So that is how you two got back together again?" Haley asked

"Oh no!" Brooke replied, "I called the cops and had him put into jail for the night"

"You called the cops on him?" Nathan asked

"Yea. Nora, the friend who was with me that night, handed me his wallet. The license we found in his wallet said that this was Lucas, but the person lying on the ground looked nothing like the Lucas Scott that I had known. When I realized that it was him, I bent down to make sure that he was breathing and then called the cops"

"I was charged with drunk in public and ordered into a Rehab program. I also spent the weekend in jail."

"I left New York and headed back to Pensacola where our main office is. He didn't know that I was the one who put him there"

"I spent the next 6 months in Rehab and I haven't touched alcohol since that night. I think that may have been the eye opener that I needed. I needed someone to through me in jail. When I got out of Rehab, I still had no place to go so I started hanging out at a men's shelter. I got hot meals and a warm place to sleep. The people at the shelter gave us suits to use for job interviews and I began looking for a job. I found one in the most unexpected place, the basketball court.

Flashback

It had been an uneventful day. I had put in 10-15 applications and had been told that they would call. I knew they would probably never call. On my way back to the shelter, I passed a basketball court where some local teenagers were playing. I sat down on a bench beside the court and watched. A few minutes later, another man sat down. I didn't pay much attention to him only the game.

After a few minutes, the man looked over at me and said, "You look down on your luck"

I looked over at him and said "Yea I may be"

"You like basketball?"

"Yea, it was my safe haven"

"Was?" He asked

"I haven't done much with sports since I left home years ago"

"You like them though?"

"Yea, I miss playing basketball. My dream was to go into the NBA. Me and my brother"

"What happened to that dream?"

"I was in a car accident and my right shoulder was pretty messed up. My basketball career was pretty much over"

"That sucks"

"Yea" I laughed, "Yea, it does. Now I am just hoping to find a job so that I can get back on my feet again. I think I need a miracle"

"Well, I might have your miracle"

I looked at the man stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"My name is Steven McCann and I am a partner in a Sport Agency in Pensacola. It is still pretty new and young, but we need sports agents. We want agents who love the games and not just the money"

"Are you offering me a job?"

"Well yea"

"Thank you Mr. McCann, but I can't. I have no idea what a sports agent does or even how to be one."

"That the beauty of our company being so small, we can help you. We can teach you and maybe you will be one of the best sports agents out there anywhere"

"I don't know"

"You said that you need a job. I have a job for you. It will take you away from this place and all this."

"I don't have anything here and I wouldn't have anything there"

"Don't you worry about that. We will buy the suits and supplies you need to get started and you can stay with my wife and me until you get on your feet financially. This is more than a job offer, this an offer to change your life"

End of flashback

"I took that life changing offer that Steve gave me that day and I have never regretted it."

"That sports agency wouldn't happen to be; McCann, Lewis and Scott?" Nathan asked

"Yea, it is. When I joined the company Steve and Jeremy Lewis were partners and I was their first official sport agent. Then business started to pick up and I was making a name for myself. Steve and Jeremy offered to open their partnership to me also, changing the name of the agency and making it what it is today. We are partners, but we are also sports agents ourselves."

"So how did you two get together?" Haley asked as everyone laughed

"Hey I want to know too, Haley" Peyton said from her spot on the bed.

"Come on, spill" Haley said

"You take this one Brooke. I think I have spilled enough today" Lucas said

"Ok, Well I was working for a fashion designing firm in Pensacola. That is where I had gone when I left Tree Hill. Nora and I were both up for promotion to Junior Vice-president of the company. There were two slots open and there were five of us going for those spots. We knew that we had to make our next clients extremely happy and the next clients we got were both from the Orlando Magic, Tony Battle and Mario Kasun. They had the same sports agent and both need shirts and shorts designed for charity events that they would be attending. Nora and I flew to Orlando to meet with the guys and their agent.

Flashback

When the guys walked in they were laughing at their agent who was behind them. They were gentlemen who said hello to us and then sat down while their agent stood staring. When I looked over at him, I realized that it was Lucas.

Lucas was the first to speak, "Hi Brooke."

"Lucas"

After that they got down to business talking about what the guys wanted. In the end, it was decided that I would design for Tony and Nora would design for Mario. Soon the meeting was over and everyone was going his or her separate ways. As Lucas was leaving the room he turned to me and said "Good to see you again, Brooke" and then walked out.

Nora looked at me and said, "That isn't Lucas from New York, drunk Lucas is it?"

"Yea, it is" I replied as we walked out of the building. We had to catch our flight home.

We had checked in at the airport and were getting ready to board our flight, when it was suddenly delayed by heavy rain in Pensacola. We were stuck for a while. That when I heard a familiar voice talking behind me. He was talking on his cell phone, "…yea, Steve the meeting went fine. The designers are going to get some proofs to the guys by next week sometime. Now if I could just get home. The day would be great…Is it that bad…Well I guess I am not going to make it into the office….yea, I know….Tell Chelsea to take the rest of the day off, she deserves it and we will deal with everything tomorrow……Thanks Man….Yea, I will call when I get in….bye"

I turned around and looked right at Lucas, "Lucas Scott"

He looked at me and smiled, "Brooke Davis"

"I couldn't help, but over hearing your phone conversation. I guess Steve is your boss"

"Actually my partner "

"Are you headed to Pensacola?"

"Yea, that is where I live now"

"How long have you lived there?"

"A little while. What about you?"

"I live there also. That is where our firm is"

"I knew that your firm was there, but I wasn't sure if you designers actually lived there"

"Some of us do, some of us don't"

End of Flashback

"We talked the entire flight home." Brooke continued " We talked about Tree Hill and about our lives after Tree Hill. We didn't talk about us as a couple, just us as friends. When we got back to Pensacola we saw each other a couple of times for business matters. Then about 3 months after Orlando, He called and asked me out to dinner. That night changed the rest of our lives. We talked about what had happened with us and we talked about trying a relationship again."

"This time we were going to made sure things were different. 6 months later I asked her to marry me and 3 months after that we were married in a civil ceremony with a couple of close friends."

"Oh, you guys! That is so cute" Peyton said

"Did you ever tell him that you were the one who got him thrown in jail?" Haley asked

"Actually Nora told him one night, It was before we got married. We were in New York for a convention and Lucas and Nora's fiancée, Jason were with us. We were out walking one afternoon and we walked by the building where we had been that night."

"Nora looks at me and says 'Lucas, have you seen two beautiful women lately?' I was really confused. I looked at her and asked her what she meant. She looked at me and told me to look around; I realized what she was talking about then. It was the same place where my life had changed. I looked at Nora who was laughing and at Brooke who was smirking and I asked 'It was you two?' Nora just smiled and shakes her head, and says 'but she was the one who knocked you out'" Lucas said

Everyone erupted in laughter as Lucas finished

"The look on his face. It was priceless. I will never forget it." Brooke added

Peyton looked on from the spot in her bed. This is exactly what she wanted to see. The family back together again, telling stories and laughing. She was going to miss this. She looked down at the young child asleep in her arms and thought of what a wonderful life this little boy was going to have with all of these wonderful people. She just wished she could be there also
