Chapter 6

For hours Brooke was comforting Rachel. She was actually surprised that she would make such a big deal out of it. Brooke actually assumed that she had already cheated on Lucas, knowing that she probably slept with all the guys in high school. But she was wrong. Rachel was very similar to Brooke, she had two personalities; One which she showed the world, showing people that she was strong and wouldn't let anyone get to her and another one to show to the people she loved., one which was complete opposite, weak and hurt. This was the moment Brooke understood Rachel, but she was still mad at her. Rachel loved the man that she wanted. The man that contained her heart through-out high school, even when she was in California. Even miles away he had her heart and she had his. That was the reason she was never fully able to move on from Lucas Eugene Scott. Every time he smiled or cocked his eyebrow, it made her fall in love all over again with him. Hopefully she had the same affect on him. She doubted it though, here he was in the same school as her, kissing and holding another girl.

Lucas was in his room thinking about the past night events. He had kissed her, something he wanted to do for such a long time. The only problem was Rachel. He had to let her go, but how would Rachel take that. One time he remember she wanted to talk to him and he was pretty sure she wanted to tell him that she loves him, but somehow he escape at the last second, so he wouldn't hear it. He simply wasn't ready for another huge relationship, actually scratch he wasn't ready for a big relationship without Brooke. He had a relationship with Rachel but it was simply about hanging out and taking his mind off of Brooke. They hadn't had sex, since he wanted to be in love to have sex, so their relationship couldn't had been 'Friends With Benefits'. The only reason he was with Rachel was to show his friends that he wasn't waiting for Brooke. Although they were able to read him like a book and had many times tried to make him go to California to go see her, but he always chicken out at the last minute. He knew he had to move on, but yesterday was she telling the truth? Did she love him? He went over to his radio and blasted the volume up.

There are certain people you just keep coming back to
She is right in front of you
You begin to wonder could you find a better one
Compared to her now she's in question

And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same

Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you started to compare to someone not there

The whole time he thought about her. 'Did she love him?'

Looking for the right one you line up the world to find
Where no questions cross your mind
But she won't keep on waiting for you without a doubt
Much longer for you to sort it out

And all at once the crowd begins to sing
Sometimes the hardest thing and the right thing are the same

Maybe you want her maybe you need her
Maybe you started to compare to someone not there
Maybe you want it maybe you need it,
Maybe it's all you're running from,
Perfection will not come

Brooke finally got Rachel to sleep. Through-out her sobbing Rachel told Brooke that she loved Lucas, which just added more gasoline to the fire. She would have had buried her head in her hands and cried and scream but she didn't want to wake up Rachel and have to comfort her all again. She called the only people she could.

'Hello?'

'Hey, Nate. It's Brooke.'

'Oh my gosh, Brooke hey! Long time.'

'Yeah sorry, you probably know that I am in the same college as Lucas though.'

'What! No he didn't tell me. I am so kicking his ass.'

Brooke laughed. 'Ok. Whatever, so is tutorwife there?'

'Yeah, one sec.' A minute later Haley came on.

'Hello?'

'TUTORWIFE!' Brooke shrieked.

'TIgger! How are you?'

'Fine. Look tonight meet me at Calvar Hotel and we are going to have a sleepover.'

'Why the sudden sleepover Brooke?'

'What! I just want to catch up with my old friends.' Brooke said innocently.

'OK. I'll be there at eight?'

'Yeah. Ok bye'

'Bye'
