Disclaimer-I asked for OTH for my birthday, but all I got was soundtrack.

Note-Still have writers block for How Can this Keep Happening. I saw The Texas Chainsaw Massacre last night….CREEPY! It's like Wrong Turn, but no Eliza Dushku. Now onto something that doesn't creep me out…Brucas! I'm making Charlotte, North Carolina only 30 minutes from Tree Hill.

Previously-

"Brooke, I can't say I don't love you. I'll always love you."

"Why did you have to say that?" she cried. "You know what, Lucas, I love you too and I've been wanting to do this since I saw you."

"Do what?" he asked. Suddenly he felt Brooke's lips touch his. It felt so normal, so perfect. He wrapped his arms around her as the kiss intensified. And he knew he never loved Rachel.

Unknowing to the two ex-lovers Rachel stood near a tree. They are both going to pay.


Scene-River court

Brooke and Lucas slowly pulled away from their kiss. "Brooke," Lucas started.

"Lucas, you don't have to say anything…I-I shouldn't have done that," she quietly replied. Then started walking to her car.

"Brooke, wait!" Lucas grabbed her arm. "I love you, and I'm breaking up with Rachel," he explained.

"Well you know where I'll be," she replied.

His cell phone rang. "Hello?"

"Hey, Luke, it's Keith. Your mom's going into surgery…"

"I'll be there in a little while." He then hung up the phone.

"What's going on?" Brooke asked.

"My mom's going into surgery."

"I'll drive you."

"Thanks."


Scene-Tree Hill Methodist

Lucas and Brooke walked into the waiting room of the hospital.

Alyssa ran and hugged Lucas.

"Brooke, you remember, Lyssa, right?" he asked as he picked up his little sister.

"Of course I remember Lyssa, I gave her that nickname," Brooke replied smiling the little girl.

"Lucas, I like her better then Rachel," the 5 ½ year old whispered to her older brother.

So do I he thought as he put her down and sat by Keith," So what's the surgery for?"

"Its new type and they're removing the tumor."

"What are her chances?"

"Seventy percent in her favor."

"That's good."


Scene-Several hours later

The head of surgery walked out of the OR. "Mr. Scott?"

"Yes?" he answered.

"The surgery was a success. She's resting, so you can see her in the morning."

"Mommy okay?" Alyssa asked.

Keith picked her up happily and kissed her on the cheek. "Yes, Mommy's okay!"

"Yay!"

Brooke hugged Lucas and Keith. "Um, Luke, I'll drive you home," she offered.


Scene-Outside Lucas's apartment

Brooke pulled over.

"Can you meet me at the Café and please bring Paige?" he asked.

"Sure, Broo-Lucas."

"I miss you calling me Broody."

"Well, Broody, I miss you calling me Cheery."

Lucas leaned into kiss Brooke, but she stopped him. "Lucas, until you break up with Rachel, I-I don't wanna be the person who steals someone elses boyfriend," Brooke explained.

"I understand." He opened the car door. "See ya tomorrow at noon?"

"Yeah, bye."

"Bye." He got out and went inside.

Brooke drove away.


Scene-inside

"Rachel?" Lucas called.

She walked out of their bedroom wearing only a robe. "Yes, Lucas?"

"We need to talk." He sat at their dinning room table.

She rolled her eyes. "About what?"

"I'm sorry, Rachel, I can't be with you anymore."

I didn't think he'd actually break up with me? "Why? Is it Brooke?" she demanded.

"Rachel, I've always loved Brooke, and it wouldn't be fair to marry you and not really love you."

"Get out!"

"Excuse me?"

"Get out!"

"What about my stuff?"

"You can get it tomorrow."


Scene-Haley and Nathan's house

Brooke walked in to see the movie Thumbelina on and Nathan asleep on the couch with Paige beside him. Brooke walked up to Paige. "Paigey, time to wake up," she said softly.

"Mommy!" she yelled waking Nathan up.

"Huh-what?" he asked.

"Thumbelina? Real manly, Nate."

"Very funny, Brooke."

"Ready?"

"Yep!" Paige responded. "Bye, Uncle Nathan."

Haley walked in from the kitchen.

"Bye, Auntie Hawey."

"Bye, sweetie." Haley and Nathan hugged her then said good-bye to Brooke.

Brooke drove her and Paige to Peyton and Jake's house. Why is Lucas's car here?

They walked in.

Lucas was sitting on the couch.

"Hi!" Paige said.

"Hi, don't you look pretty."

She smiled shyly.

"Paige time for bed. Why don't you do ask Jenny to help you."

"Okay, Mommy. Bye, Lucas," Paige said as she ran up the stairs.

"Bye."

Brooke sat next to Lucas. "What are you doing here?" she asked.

"Rachel kicked me out."

"I'm sorry."

"Thanks."

Jake walked down the stairs. "Brooke, do you mind having a roommate?" he asked.

"No, I don't mind," she replied. "As long as you stay on your side of the bed."


Scene-Late that night

Lucas walked into the room he and Brooke would be sharing.

Brooke moved over to make room for him.

He laid down. "Brooke, I've made a decsion," he stated.

"What?" she asked rolling over so she could look at him.

"I'm going to move to L.A."

"What about the Bobcats?"

"I'm going to transfer to the Lakers."

"You would do that for Paige?"

"For Paige…and you."

"Lucas, I love you," she whispered as she drifted off to sleep.

"Brooke, I love you too."
