Four weeks, that's how long it has been since Lucas's first 'date' with Kimberly; and three weeks since Brooke had an actual talk with Lucas. It seemed awkward between them even though Brooke didn't know the things she said to him when she was drunk she did know they kissed, and how he poured his heart out to her and she just left, and now she was avoiding him like the plague. However, them having the same group of friends they seen each other almost every day, however Brooke keeps the talk to a hey, how you doing and nothing else, even when Lucas would stop by try to talk about it she would just leave not wanting to talk about it.
"Brooke; are we talking about this yet?" Rachel asked as she watched her friend frantically digging through her drawer.
"Talk about what?" Brooke asked not really listening.
"About Lucas? That you two kissed, not only kissed but more like made out."
"I told you Rach I woke up next to him thought I was dreaming and I kissed him, it was a mistake and it shouldn't have happen." Brooke said growing annoyed with this topic "God where is it." She mumbled to herself as she started to dig through her jewelry box.
"Ok well don't you think it means something you were dreaming about being in bed with him? I mean don't you see what that means." Rachel asked confused, how she could not tell that if she thinks about him while she was sleeping even if technically it wasn't a dream but real life that she clearly wanted to be with him.
"I don't know Rachel ok." Brooke said again not paying attention, "Damn it!" she snapped throwing her jewelry box and running her hand through her hair.
"Brooke!" Rachel said jumping off her bed and getting over to her best friend "What is wrong?" Rachel asked.
"I can't find it Rachel, I mean I had it at the party, and I think I wore it the other day but I can't remember, I never take it off Rach and now I can't find it." Brooke cried.
"Ok what are we looking for?"
"My necklace, it's a silver chain and with a tear drop stone, the stone is my birth stone, I can't find it, where is it." Brooke asked walking away from Rachel and searching her bed hoping it fell off maybe when she was sleeping.
Rachel watched as Brooke dug through her bed, and then over to her jeans and searching her pockets, then her night stand.
"Brooke what's the big deal, it's just a necklace; we can go get you another one if you want." Rachel suggested not getting why this was such a big deal.
"I can't just go get another one Rachel, I want that one." She snapped "Wait maybe I left it when I took a shower." Brooke thought as she ran past Rachel to the bathroom down the hall, Rachel following behind her.
"Is this it?" Rachel asked noticing a necklace hanging on the towel rack, where clearly Brooke took it off while she was showering so it wouldn't fall down the drain.
"Oh thank god." Brooke said grabbing it from Rachel letting out a sigh of relief, and a tear fell down her cheek, as she put it back on.
"Brooke what is the big deal, it's just a necklace, why is it so important anyway?" Rachel asked being confused for about the millionth time since this little search began, of course Rachel had some important jewelry that she loved but not like Brooke seemed to love this necklace, that to Rachel was pretty but just seemed like a normal necklace that you could probably get another of if you lost.
"Because," Brooke sighed holding the necklace tight around her neck "It's not just a necklace." She explained.
"Why who gave it to you?" Rachel whispered wondering of maybe it belonged to a family member or something but really wasn't too surprised by what Brooke whispered.
"Lucas."
Lucas was going completely nuts; he hated not being able to talk to Brooke and at the same time he was confused. She said be friends; date other people see what happens; yet he goes on one date and she freaks on him, then he takes her home after being drunk she kiss him, tells him she loves him then she leaves like always she runs from her feelings. He hoped she still didn't think he was with Kimberly, so maybe he hung out with Kimberly more but he wouldn't consider them dates or him and her going out exactly. He liked Kimberly she was cute, sweet, funny, but at the end of the day she just wasn't Brooke, his Brooke. Then their kiss, she felt what he felt he knew she did, and the things she said to him, he kept playing it over and over again, not understanding how she thought that why she thought that, he made it clear he loved her. Every day he told her, hell he yelled to an entire lunch room he loved her and then she questioned it because he didn't call. She broke up with him, he was heartbroken and an embarrassed and as much as he wanted to be with her he thought it would never work them being so far apart and talking to her and calling her was just way to hard.
"Hey man what you thinking about?" Lucas heard Jeff ask as he sat down next to him at the table.
"Umm…nothing." Lucas shrugged as he took a sip of his drink.
"Your thinking of Brooke aren't you?" Jeff asked, though he only knew Lucas this short period of time they became actually pretty close and Jeff could always tell when he had Brooke on the brain, mainly because Brooke got the same look when she was thinking about Lucas. Plus he did walk in on them in a pretty intense conversation that he was still kicking himself for.
"Yeah is it really that obvious?"
"Yeah kind of." Jeff laughed "So what's up?"
"I just…" Lucas paused as he thought for a second "I just miss her man, I mean I see her every day yet I have never felt so distant to her." It was utterly confusing to Lucas how someone he saw every day, someone he use to know better than the back of his hand was like a complete stranger to him now.
"Yeah I know," Jeff sighed, he understood completely, mainly because he knew how much Lucas cared about Brooke, not only because of the things Brooke would say about him but also because the way he looked at her. Lucas had this look Jeff only saw when Brooke walked into the room, a look that made his whole face light up and a look that told Jeff that Brooke was in good hands with Lucas, he just had to get her to get back together with him. He knew she wanted to, he knew how much she still loved him, but she was just so stubborn. "What…What do you want from her man?" Jeff was pretty sure he already knew the answer but being Brooke his best friend someone who was like his baby sister he had to be sure, he had to be 100% sure.
"I just want her back, I want Brooke back, I need her back." Lucas explained and it was true he was going crazy without her. He was going insane not being able to touch or hold her, he wanted Brooke back, he wanted his Pretty Girl back.
"Then we are going to get her back for you." Jeff smiled "And I am going to help."
"How we going to do that she won't even talk to me." Lucas asked, of course he wanted her back and would do anything for that to happen, but he wasn't even sure how he would do it.
"Well you see I just happen, to know someone who loves Brooke just as much as I do and maybe as much as you, I mean if that's even possible." Jeff explained.
"Who?" Lucas asked a little confused.
Jeff just laughed at how clueless Lucas was; he defiantly had to help him on that one but not the time so he just figured he would tell him even though it was the most obvious thing in the whole world, "Rachel."
