A/N: I feel like it has been forever since I updated, so for anyone who is still reading this, thank you it means a lot!
Season 7 has been really good so far, except that once again Brooke is not getting her happily ever after which she deserves! And I am sorry for anyone who likes her, but I can't stand Alex! But I love Clay and Quinn.
Anyway on with the chapter and by the way Tree Hill is supposed to be more of a college than high school, despite the name! And Lucas used to live in Montana.

Chapter 3

It had been a week since Lucas arrived in Tree Hill, and it all seemed like a blur. It was an unknown feeling to Lucas not to be the most popular person in school and everyone wanting to be your best friend, for genuine reasons or not.
Lucas and Nathan had become really good mates, and Nathan being captain of the basketball team was good too because it meant he had all the inside information on when the coach would be holding try out.
It also turned out that Nathan was none other than Brooke Davis' older brother. Other than the first day though, Lucas was not lucky enough to have run into her that was until Lucas' first English literature class. This was what Lucas was most looking forward too, English literature. Dan had forbidden it back in Montana, said there was no point wasting time with book, and instead put Lucas into several classes of business studies and economics. But this was the new Lucas and the new Lucas was finally going to pursue in something he loved.
Lucas got into the classroom and immediately noticed Brooke sitting in the back of the class with a blonde girl. Brooke smiled and Lucas already felt good about this class.
"Lucas Scott, right? The head said you were coming." The teacher said offering Lucas a desk and a book. "Romeo and Juliet" Lucas read, and he sighed with relief it was a book he had already read.
"So shall we pick up where we left of last time?" The teacher said who had introduced himself as Mr Stocker.
"Sir, Owen is off sick, so there is no one to read Romeo." Someone said, and the teacher looked around the room for volunteers.
"Feel like being our leading man, Mr Scott." Lucas looked shocked but agreed all the same.
"Okay Act 3 Scene 1."
"Where art thou Romeo," A familiar voice from the back spoke, and Lucas turned to see Brooke reading the part of Juliet.
It then took Lucas a few moments to realise that it was his line next, and only came to when Mr Stocker said his name, leading Brooke to giggle.

After English Lucas walked out of the class and was surprised to see Brooke waiting for him.
"Oh hey," Lucas said and Brooke smiled.
"Hey, you bumped into any other innocent people yet?"
"What….Oh yeah sorry about that." Lucas said embarrassed.
"I'm just joking. So how you liking Tree Hill?"
"Yeah its good, its nothing like home," Lucas said without realising what he had said.
"So what is home?" Brooke asked curiously.
"Oh somewhere in the west, you wont have heard of it….so what you up to now?"
"You don't say much do you?" Brooke asked quizzically, there was something mysterious that she liked about this guy.
"Maybe I don't have anything interesting to say."
"Well I don't believe that for one second. And that wouldn't make you a very good Romeo."
"Well then, 'should I compare thee to a summer's day?'" Brooke seemed impressed and that made Lucas smile.
"Ah a smile, I thought I would never get one of them out of you."
"Don't think I have had much to smile about recently."
"WOW you really are Mr Life and Soul of the party aren't you? Well I am determined to make you smile, you got any plans now?"
"I was gonna go to the library and catch up….." Lucas saw Brooke's expression, "But I can do that anytime."
"Great, you are in for a treat Lucas Scott!"

Brooke was taking Lucas on a tour of Tree Hill, Brooke Style.
"So this is my mum's diner, Deb's Diner." Brooke pointed out leading Lucas into a cute little diner.
"This is so cool; you must be here all the time." Lucas said looking around the place taking in the scenery.
"Yeah me and Nathan practically grew up here, I love it."
"Hey Brooke," A waiter from behind the counter said and Lucas noticed the guy eying him up.
"Hey CJ, how are you?"
"I'm good, but who is this Brooke you never told me you had a boyfriend, a cute one at that too." CJ said, and Brooke looked embarrassed.
"CJ, this is my friend Lucas Scott, he is new in town and I am giving him a tour."
Lucas waved at the guy who was making him feel uncomfortable; Brooke saw this and ordered two coffees with a laugh.
"So who's that? "Lucas asked after the odd waiter.
Brooke laughed and replied, "That's CJ he has been working here for as long as I can remember, he is practically family. And yeah he is gay, in case there was any uncertainty."
"I think I gathered that myself, but he seems cool." Lucas said honestly, he was jealous. This place, this amazing family atmosphere just reminded him of how much he hated the fact his family – if you could even call it that – were so screwed up. Lucas hadn't spoken to Dan since he left Montana, it never seemed like the right time and more than that Lucas had no idea what he would say.
"Lucas you still there," Brooke said waving a hand in front of his face.
"Sorry, guess I was just thinking."
"Bout what?" Brooke asked.
"You ask a lot of questions, you know?" Lucas said, he had never met anyone like Brooke, she was so free and he envied that, but at the same time respected that.
"You'll never know the answers unless you ask the questions." Brooke said simply, and it was something Lucas had never thought of. With Dan you didn't ask questions, because everything was his way. So all of the things Lucas knew either came from Dan or books. There was so much about the world that Lucas knew nothing about, and he was determined to change that.
CJ brought over the coffees, "So Lucas how do you like Tree Hill so far?"
"Yeah it's awesome, Brooke is a good tour guide too."
"The Brooke Style Tree Hill Guide is a special, you should be honoured, she doesn't give them out to just anyone."
"Well then I do feel honoured," Lucas said smiling on the inside and out.
CJ took the tray away to serve other customers, leaving Lucas and Brooke again.
"So you ready for the last part of the tour?"
"Yeah of course, I am in your hands,"

Lucas took out his wallet and out a handful of money down, and Brooke laughed. "You realise we only had 2 coffees, and besides my mum owns this café."
"Oh sorry, give to CJ as a tip then."
"So someone is loaded." Brooke teased as they left the diner waving bye to CJ.
"I guess…..So where next?"
"Just you wait." Brooke said walking off and Lucas immediately following.
