Chapter 8: The Proposal of the Year
"Ya pick a ring!" Lucas said
"Lucas!" Brooke said shocked
"Pick a ring already!" Lucas said
"Are you sure?" Brooke asked
"Pick one!" Lucas kinda aggregated
"That one!" Brooke said
"Okay good!"
"How are you paying for this?" Brooke asked curious where Lucas got the money for this
"In Keith's will he said that the money he had in his account was for me and I thought it would be a good idea and after there will be lots left still." Lucas said proudly
"You sure about this?" Brooke asked making sure he really wanted to do this
"Ya I love you so much you have no idea how much I want to spend the rest of my life with you!" Lucas said declaring his love for Brooke once again
"OH Lucas!"
"I want to be with you forever and ever!" Lucas said
"Me to!" Brooke said
"So I have something planned come on!" Lucas said as he pulled Brooke out of the mall
"It's beautiful!" Brooke said at what Lucas did to make it romantic
"That's not all I have do you think I am that cheap?" Lucas said half laughing half jocking
"What there more?" Brooke said shocked
"Ya Brooke look up in the ski!"
"Oh Lucas Yes, Yes, Yes"
"Good now what do you want to do to tell our friends or keep it a secret?" Lucas asked not sure of what Brooke wanted to do
"Keep it a secret and is it okay I don't wear the ring to school?"
"Ya Sure No Problem" He kinda wanted her to say that
"Okay good but one more problem I…" Brooke was cut off by Lucas
"You don't want to be a Scott that's okay cause you don't have to be cause I'm changing my last name too. To my mom's last name Roe is that better. Lucas said cause it has been in the works for awhile before basketball
"Ya that's better did you just think of that know?" Brooke asked
"No actually I was going to change it a couple years ago when I first joined the basketball team and they put that article about me and Nathan for the father son game." Lucas said
"Oh ya I remember that" Brooke said
"Well I was going to change it then but I only kept if for Keith" Lucas said a bit sad that Keith was actually gone
"That was nice of you but know that he is gone you don't want it anymore" Brooke said understanding what Lucas was getting at
"Ya I have no obligation to it expect Nathan and Haley" Lucas said
"Oh ya right" Brooke said
"Well I think that's okay Nathan and me were thinking about changing our last name together so he would be Lee and I would be Roe but we would still related with out people knowing Dan" Lucas said proud of there plan
"Smart idea let's do it" Brooke said
"Are you sure?" Lucas asked one last time
"Ya full throttle" Brooke said proudly
Next day at school Brooke and Lucas talk to Nathan and Haley about still doing the name change
"Still wanting to do the name change" Nathan asked
"Ya for sure Haley too?" Lucas asked
"Ya she's on full throttle" Nathan said
"Cool let's do it, Hey Brooke" Lucas said
"Hey did you tell Nathan" Brooke asked
"No we were just talking about the name change" Lucas said
"You guys still on" Brooke asked
"Ya Haley too" Nathan said
"Cool me too" Brooke said trying not to tell him
"What do you mean you too?" Nathan asked confussed
"It's a surprise you'll see" Brooke said trying to cover her words
"Let me guess you two are getting married!" Nathan asked out of the blue
"How did you know?" Lucas and Brooke said surprised he guess on the first shot
"It's true?" Nathan asked surprised
"How did you guess?" Lucas asked
"Did Lucas get you to help him?" Brooke asked curious of how he knew
