And they were inseparable ever since that afternoon on that lawn. They did everything together. Brooke cheered loudest for every basket Lucas scored on the court. Lucas was up sewing with her when Clothes Over Bros had a sudden massive inflow of orders. They were together to help Nathan and Haley iron out some kinks in their relationship.
Lucas helped her forget about her dad. She would never tell Lucas what happened but he helped keep her sane. She was finally getting herself together again.
Brooke had never been happier.
Up until Lucas told her it was over.
oOoOoOo
One year later.
"I'm sorry Brooke. I wanted to tell you." Brooke's eyes searched his face.
"It just happened. But we are going to abort it soon. Please Brooke, just give me a chance to make everything right again." Nick's hands tightened around hers. Desperate.
"No."
"Brooke… please…"
"I'm sorry." Brooke had no tears left to shed.
oOoOoOo
"Hey." Brooke ignored him.
"Brooke." She allowed herself to look at him. She missed him so much.
"I heard what happened and I just…"
"Save it for someone who cares Luke."
"And please stop sending me messages asking me how I am and what I'm doing. I'm fine as long as you're far, far away."
Even when she was cold towards him, he couldn't tear his eyes away from her.
You're so beautiful Brooke.
oOoOoOo
"I am sorry Mr. Scott. I'm afraid that we would have to suspend you mobile line till you make payment on you outstanding bill."
