Chapter 5

It had been going on for 3 weeks now. They had been sneaking around anywhere they could. They would go into Janitor's closets, bathrooms, libraries, hallways, and even the River Court. Lucas couldn't remember a time where he was more jumpy and happy to be going to school and just about everywhere. Their friends would ask why they were so happy and they would just say 'It's just a good day'. Their friends would just look at them strangely, but then go back to talking about what they were talking about. It was getting serious, they could both feel it, but they weren't ready to come public or start again. This way, there were no strings attached and they could just want each other without having to worry about cheating, heartbreak, or hurt. They could just make out and hang out whenever they wanted with no one even knowing. They still hadn't gone all the way yet, and they were both content with that. They still didn't feel it was right to do it if they weren't a couple. Now, usually Brooke would be okay with that considering she had done it many times before but Lucas, Lucas was special and she didn't want to ruin it.

"Hey Broody." She said and walked up to him. They had a secret spot that was in Tric, it was behind the stage. There was little room which they would go to and spend time with each other.

"Hey Cheery, how are you?" He asked and smiled.

"Great. And you?" Brooke said and sat down next to him.

Lucas had sat there thinking about how he was going to tell Brooke that he cared about her…a lot. He didn't want to break off what they had going but he didn't want to keep doing it when feelings got in the way. He decided he shouldn't tell her.

"Great, now that you're here."

Brooke smiled, but wasn't convinced.

"You sure? You look like you have something on you're mind." Brooke asked.

How could Lucas be so wrong? Brooke could read him so easily. He could hide everything from her, but she would always find out. He was thinking about how he felt about Brooke his mind wandered back to Whitey's speech. Okay, so, some of it wasn't about them but it wasn't supposed to be. They had their own relationship, things would be different. He didn't know why he had told her that but now he felt guilty.

"Trust me, it's nothing." He said and stood up so he was face to face with her.

Brooke half smiled. He noticed, so he kissed her. There was no more laughing, they had noticed, because they were too busy being caught up in the moment to realize that what they were doing was silly. It had grown into so much more, and the both were just too scared to realize it.

Brooke flew her arms tightly around Lucas' neck. She placed small kisses on his lips, to tease him until he got frustrated and caught her lips on his fully. She knew what made him crazy, and so did he. Maybe that's what made them so real.

Lucas laid Brooke on her back and onto the couch that was in the room. They continued kissing until they heard a noise. They could hear music being blasted. It was Peyton.

Brooke immediately looked at Lucas, worried.

"Lucas, it's Peyton." Brooke whispered.

"I know. We have to get out of here." He whispered back.

"But how?"

"We can't just both go out there, she will be wondering why we were together in the first place."

"Then maybe we should climb out that window and then have one of us go back in there, or both, and just say that we were hanging out."

"Perfect." Lucas whispered and tried to open the window.

He got it open and climbed out without making too much noise.

Next it was Brooke's turn and she was never quiet about anything. She was scared; she had to admit because she hated heights.

"Lucas! I'm afraid of heights!" She whispered.

"Brooke, I've got you don't worry I wouldn't drop you." He reassured.

Brooke was still hesitant.

"I don't know Lucas…"

"Do you trust me?" he asked.

How could he be asking her that right now? I think it was a little bit more important that she got down then deal with trust issues at the moment.

"What?"

"I said, do you trust me?"

"Yes." She said.

"Then jump down." He said.

Brooke was scared out of her mind, but she listened to Lucas. She whispered an 'Oh God' and then closed her eyes and screamed a little. When she opened her eyes she saw Lucas' face with a smile. He had caught her and now he was holding her. She could only just look into his eyes, shocked that he had actually done it.

"Brooke, this is more then just a fling isn't it?" He asked seriously still holding her.

"Yeah, but it's not supposed to be." She said and lowered herself from his arms.

"Brooke, I…"

"I know. Listen, go inside and talk to Peyton. I told Haley I would hang out with her today."

Lucas looked disappointed.

"Brooke, you know nothing is going on between me and Peyton right?"

"No, I don't. But it's not my business anymore." Brooke said and walked away leaving a hurt Lucas behind.

Then it hit him, what he wanted to do in the beginning, try new things, be different, he did that all…with Brooke. He might not have been single, but he sure did try new things. And then he knew…he was not over Brooke Davis, not even close.
