"If this is a joke…" Brooke turned to Peyton and roughly pinched her arm. "Then it is not funny and I'm going to kill you when this is all over!"

Peyton laughed and motioned her hand toward the door Lucas Scott was poking his head through. "Why don't you just go and see what Lucas wants?"

Brooke squinted at Peyton as she slowly slid herself out of the large chair she'd been sitting in getting her nails done. "What are you doing her, Luke? How did you know I was here?"

She stopped a few feet away from the door so she could pull it open to let him all the way in.

"You can come in, Luke! We aren't all sitting around naked in here." Haley spoke up from her chair behind Brooke.

Lucas laughed nervously as he made his way into the large spa room. "Brooke, I just wanted to talk to you for a moment."

"About what? It can't wait until later?" Brooke's hands flew up to her chest. "Luke, you're really starting to scare me!"

Lucas laughed and took both of Brooke's hands into his own. "Please don't be scared. One of us has to remain sane in this moment!"

"What moment?" Brooke squealed as she gave his hands a tight squeeze. "Luke, what is going on?"

Lucas took a deep breath before slowly making his way down onto his knee. He released his hold on Brooke's hands and pulled out a ring box from his jacket's pocket.

Brooke gasped loudly but could no longer find the words to speak.

"Brooke Penelope Davis-Baker." Lucas smiled nervously up at his girlfriend, "I want us to be together forever and we still have time for that since we aren't old yet!" He laughed. "Will you marry me?"

Tears fell down Brooke's cheeks and blurred up her vision. "Yes!" She croaked out with a laugh. "Yes!" She threw her arms around Lucas' neck. "Yes!"

Lucas sighed a sigh of relief when he heard Brooke's answer to his proposal. "Thank you!" He lifted her up in his arms and twirled her around. "I love you so much!"

Brooke smiled and took Lucas' face into her hands. "I knew I was gonna say yes after you acknowledge that I am still a Baker!"

"Well you're gonna be a Scott now!" Haley squealed before taking the couple into a group hug. "Congratulations love birdies!"

"Oh like you didn't know he was going to propose to me like this!" Brooke smiled at Haley.

Haley put her hands over her heart. "I promise you, Brooke, I did not know that he was going to propose to you! I mean I knew he was thinking about it but I didn't know it would be today. I didn't even know that he had a ring!"

"So you didn't help him plan this?" Brooke pouted. "That would have been the perfect story to tell people!"

"No, I did." Peyton stood up from her sitting position in her spa chair. "I helped Lucas plan all of this."

Peyton walked over to the spa door and opened it, revealing Brooke's sons Davis and Jude. Both boys were holding a bouquet of red roses for their mother.

Brooke felt tears begin to sting the back of her eyes as she embraced her sons in a giant hug. "Why would you help him propose to your best friend?" She questioned Peyton.

Peyton shrugged her shoulders. "I know how much he loves you and I know just how much you love him back! I wanted to fix what I messed up which is destiny! You two are destined to be together."

Brooke squealed and pulled Peyton into a tight hug. "I love you P. Sawyer! This was so sweet of you to do!"

Peyton laughed. "Well it was P. Scott but I think I want my Sawyer back now."

Brooke laughed along with Peyton, "Thank goodness. Now I can have my last name but I still don't have my ring!" She held out her hand to Lucas. "I didn't even get a chance to look at it!"

"Well that is a good thing. You don't care what the ring looks like!" Lucas smiled as he slid the large three carat diamond onto Brooke's petite ring finger.

"Oh. My. Word." Brooke said as she got the first look at her engagement ring.

The oval cut diamond was surrounded by smaller diamonds that continued onto the band and around again.

"Do you like it mama?" Jude asked.

"We helped pick it out!" Davis smiled widely up at his mother.

Brooke's heart melted. "I love it!" She hugged her twin boys again but this time pulled Lucas into the hug. "I love my boys so much!"

"We love you too mama." Jude and Davis said in unison.

Haley and Peyton both stood in the corner of the room waiting with eyes full of tears.

"You did a good thing for them, Peyton." Haley said.

Peyton smiled sadly down at Haley. "It wasn't easy but I think I have always knew that it was supposed to be them together in the end."

Haley smiled. "I think we all kind of knew!"

"Well thanks for the hint all those years ago!" Peyton joked.

"So does this mean we get to call you daddy now?" Jude asked Lucas as he was climbing into his twin sized bed.

Lucas laughed and sat at the end of the child's bed. "You can call me whatever you'd like to call me; Lucas, dad, father, etc."

"Father?" Jude scrunched up his nose at the sound of the word. "It sounds so weird. How about daddy?"

Lucas smiled widely and nodded once, "Daddy sounds fine to me!"

"Will my other daddy be mad if we start calling you daddy?" Davis asked from his bed across the room.

Lucas patted a spot on Jude's bed for the young boy to join him. "Your father would want you two to be happy and I think he would be more than happy that you called me daddy. It means you're opening up to me! I plan on being that father figure to you boys for the rest of my life."

"Well you already are a great father thingy." Davis said with a giggle.

Lucas laughed and playfully pulled the boy into a headlock. "Well I'm glad you approve of my performance."

Brooke stood in the doorway to her sons' bedroom. "I thought I made it clear that it was bedtime?" She cocked her head to the side and smiled. "This doesn't look like bed time to me!"

"Uh-oh!" Davis raced over to his bed that sat across the large bedroom from his brother's wooden bed.

Brooke laughed and chased Davis over to his bed. "Time for the bed time monster to rear her ugly little head!"

"But mama you could never be ugly to me or Davis or daddy!" Jude said simply from his spot on his bed.

Brooke's heart melted at her son's compliment. "You are going to break a lot of hearts baby." She turned and blew her son a kiss.

Jude reached into the air and pretended to grab the airborne kiss. "Goodnight mama."

"Goodnight sweetie!" Brooke turned and planted a kiss upon Davis' warm forehead. "Goodnight sweetie. Sleep tight!"

"Goodnight!" Davis sang back to his mother. "I love you."

Brooke smiled and brushed Davis' brown hair from his eyes. "I love you too. Both of you!"

"Goodnight daddy!" Both boys called out to Lucas who stood waiting for Brooke in the doorway to the children's bedroom.

Lucas could not help but smile widely and brightly at the boys' acknowledgement of him during their bedtime routine. "Goodnight sons!"

Brooke skipped over to her fiancé and pulled him out of the room into the hallway. "They really love you! And that makes me so happy."

"I love them too, Brooke." Lucas smiled and scooped up his fiancé into his arms. "And I really love you!"

Brooke's index finger flew up to her thin pink lips. "Shhh!" She nodded toward the double doors that led to Jude and Davis' bedroom.

Lucas nodded once before he took off down the hallway running with Brooke in his arms.

Brooke squealed loudly into his chest as he ran away with her. "Lucas Eugene Scott!"

Lucas plopped Brooke down onto her bed once he reached her bedroom. "Brooke Penelope Davis-Baker!"

"Did you know?" She propped herself up on her elbows. "I dropped my last name completely and just took on Julian's?"

Lucas' eyebrows raised on his forehead. "What happened to you never wanting to give up your last name for anyone?"

Brooke shrugged. "I met the right guy to give that all up for! And it just so happens that I met that guy in you too." She poked his chest where his heart was.

"You'd drop Julian's name and take on mine?" Lucas asked.

Brooke smiled and pulled Lucas down onto the bed. "I'd be more than happy to! I'd also be more than happy to…"

She brushed her lips against his neck. Lucas quivered at the feel of Brooke's touch.

"I have a proposition…" Lucas stopped Brooke despite his heart beginning to race.

Brooke pouted and pulled herself away from him. "What is it?"

"I propose that we don't have sex until our wedding night!" Lucas said with a reassuring nod.

Brooke's eyebrows shot up her forehead. "None? Not even a little bit?"

Lucas chuckled and tucked a loose auburn colored hair behind Brooke's ear. "None at all!"

"But why?" Brooke plopped down onto the bed. "What brought this one?"

"Because I want our wedding night to mean something! And I want to try and be traditional this time." Lucas said.

Brooke frowned in confusion. "It will be our first night as a married couple. What else will it mean?"

"I want it to be our first night together, period." Lucas shrugged. "You didn't want to have sex until you knew we were going somewhere and I obliged."

Brooke shook her head and sighed heavily. "Okay, fine!"

"So we have a deal?" Lucas said, surprised.

Brooke winced before nodding her head. "No sex until our wedding night! I can't promise that I won't seduce you or turn you on though!" She kissed Lucas.

Lucas sighed deeply against Brooke's lips. "Maybe we can start this tomorrow?" He pulled her on top of him.

"Lucas!" Brooke squealed.

"Well good morning soon to be bride!" Haley greeted Brooke with a wide smile as Brooke walked into Karen's Café.

Brooke yawned loudly but covered her mouth with her hand. "Good morning, Hales!"

Haley giggled at Brooke's yawn. "I take it that you and Lucas had a long night celebrating your engagement?" She nudged Brooke in her side.

Brooke rolled her chocolate brown eyes. "No! Lucas doesn't want to have sex until we get married. He wants us to be as traditional as possible this time around."

Haley frowned. "What?"

Brooke laughed and nodded her head. "That is what I said when he first told me! He is turning totally Naley on me!"

"How is that Naley?" Haley asked.

"You totally did this to Nathan in high school before your second wedding, remember?" Brooke raised both eyebrows to her friend.

Haley began to nod her head slowly. "Well it worked out for Nathan and I so why not just give it a try?"

"Oh I'm trying but you see how hot my fiancée is! It is hard to keep my hands off of him." Brooke bit down on her lip.

Haley remained silent but continued to nod her head slowly.

"I'm still waiting for that EW you and Lucas always gives us whenever we say stuff like that about the other!" Brooke put her hands on her hips.

Haley laughed. "Lucas may be like a brother to me but I still see that he is an attractive man!"

Brooke squinted as she looked at Haley. "You totally used to like him or you still do!"

Haley cleared her throat and slapped her chest as she choked on her own laughter. "Okay, fine! I used to like Lucas."

Brooke's eyes widened. "When? Your crush on him better not have magically disappeared two seconds ago!"

Haley shook her head, "I had a tiny crush on Lucas my first two years of high school but it magically disappeared when I met my future husband, Nathan Scott." She flashed her wedding ring. "You know the man I have two children with!"

Brooke took a deep breath and pulled Haley into a hug. "Sorry if I'm being a little paranoid about Lucas!"

"No I understand." Haley hugged Brooke back. "Every time you tried to get back with Lucas there was always someone standing in the way who always wanted him like Lindsay…"

"And that dumb ass. What was her name again? Oh yeah, Peyton Sawyer!" Peyton took a seat at the cafe's bar.

Both Haley and Brooke stood frozen as they stared wide eyed at Peyton.

"I'm sorry…" Haley mumbled.

Peyton laughed and casually waved her hand in the air. "I would be mad if you were trash talking but lets face it. It is the truth! That damn Lucas Scott can be so irresistible sometimes."

Brooke cleared her throat and shot Peyton a look.

"Not that I find him irresistible anymore!" Peyton cleared up. "Not at all."

"Mm." Brooke pursed her lips together.

Peyton sighed. "I'm your friend, Brooke! Friends trust one another."

Haley laughed out loud but instantly felt bad so she turned and pretended to be looking for something in the kitchen of the café.

"You're right P. Sawyer!" Brooke frowned and walked around the counter to hug Peyton. "I'm sorry. I know you don't want Lucas back."

"Thank you for finally giving me credit for moving on!" Peyton smiled. "I promise this time around you will have no trouble out from me. I will not be the girl sitting in the back of the church waiting to object to the marriage."

Brooke smiled sadly. "I hope so because Peyton I really want to spend the rest of my life with this man." Tears began to fill to the brim of her eyes. "I love him so much and I always have!"

Peyton began to feel guilty for taking Lucas away from Brooke all of these years. "Now is your time to finally do that! He is all yours now Brooke. No one is standing in your way this time!"

Brooke wiped her tears with the back of her sleeve. "I can't wait to marry him and call him my husband forever!" She laughed through the tears. "He makes me so happy. I feel so much joy in my heart when I look at him."

"I hope you two are over there talking about me!" Lucas said with a laugh as he entered the café but his laughter soon came to a halt when he saw that his fiancée was crying. "Oh no, Brooke! What happened?"

Brooke smiled widely and ran over to Lucas. He caught her in his arms.

"Are you okay?" Lucas held her.

Brooke brushed her lips against his. "I'm perfectly fine! In face I'm more than fine. I'm extremely happy!"

Lucas smiled and picked her up. "Oh yeah?"

"Yeah!" She laughed and kissed him. "I love you, Lucas!"

Lucas' smile widened. "I love you too, soon to be bride."

"Oh my word!" Brooke bit down on her lip and closed her eyes.

"What?" Lucas asked.

Brooke laughed and shook her head. "We all used to say that you and Peyton were personality twins but now I see that it is really you and Haley!"

"What?" Lucas laughed.

Brooke took his face into her hands. "I'm marrying the male version of my best friend!"
