BROOKE'S POV
This is the day! I'm going to finally see Lucas, the man that I love!
I got all my bags and called a cab as I proceeded to the airport. The plane will be leaving at 2: 00 PM today. I'm supposed to be there, like, now! Good thing the airport is not that far away.
I got there at around 12: 30 PM and I have already checked in my entire luggage. Now it's 1: 30 PM and I'm sitting in one of the chairs, waiting for my flight to be called. I opened my Sidekick and messaged Lucas, "I'm in the airport now. The plane will be leaving at 2: 00 PM and I'll be there around 4 PM. I'll meet you at the Fisherman's Wharf 4- ish. Gotta go! My flight's being called. Can't wait to see you. Luv ya! –Penelope.
I got my Prada bag and boarded the plane. Everything's settled…for now. Now there's only one thing that has been lingering on my mind.
What if I'm not what he expects?

LUCAS' POV
I got a text message from Penelope today and she said she's on the plane right now. I can't wait to see her! Shoot! I have to make the reservations for our dinner tonight! I grabbed my car keys and drove to the Fisherman's Wharf. This night has got to be the best night of my life!
I made some dinner reservations at this wonderful place that overlooks the city. The restaurant said that they will have Dashboard Confessional as guest musicians tonight. I even had the chance of asking for "Stolen" to be played while we're having dinner. Now how cool is that?! This will certainly be a blast!
I have this night all planned out! I'll give her some red daisies when we meet, since she said that those are her favorite flowers. And as a present, I'll give her a copy of my favorite book, Winter of Our Discontent. Then after dinner, we'll proceed to my house and watch some DVDs, both our favorite movies. Good thing we did that 20 questions thing. I surely learned a lot about her!
I finished at around 3 PM, so that exactly gives me one hour to prepare. I took a bath and washed myself with most fragrant and the best shower gels and shampoo I can find. I have to smell nice for her!
I opened my closet and looked for my clothes. I knew I have arranged them last night. Aha! There they are! My blue polo, my cargo pants and my flip- flops. I looked myself in the mirror and I realized I looked good! With my hair sticking out everywhere, I looked like a model! What a way to flatter myself, huh?
One more thing, hmmm…oh right! My Aviator glasses! Now I have to get going. But wait, I think I'm forgetting something. Right! The red daisies. I'll just buy them on my way there. Now everything's done. I've got the dinner reservations ready, the book and the flowers bought, and I had the house well cleaned up when we get there. Now all I have to do is to wait for her.
But what if I'm not what she thinks I am?
AN: Next up is Brooke's/ Penelope's and Lucas' meeting. What does fate have in store for them? Will things finally go right this time? Read to find out! This story is nearing its end. So watch out for the last few chapters!
