Chapter 19
The sun was streaming through the window began to wake Brooke from her slumber. She tried burying her head in the pillow as she searched for the body that was lying next to her last night but there was no one there. Brooke figured he probably went to the bathroom, so tried to find her way back to sleep but the sounds of laughter floating down the hallway pulled her completely from sleep. She got up from the bed and grabbed a pair of sweatpants that Lucas had and pulled them on.
She opened the door slowly as to not interrupt the fun. As Brooke made her way down the hallway she realized that the laughs were coming from the living room. As she rounded the corner she so saw a sight that made her heart stop. Father and son were sitting on the floor using pillows as their sits as they ate cereal and laughed at cartoons. Standing there watching them do everything exactly as the other on did it was amazing. Brooke had been waiting for this moment for a long time and it was finally here, tears began to well up in her eyes at the sight.
Noah let out a little giggle and said, "That funny daddy."
"I know buddy," he replied as he continued to eat his cereal.
Brooke let out a small laugh drawing attention to her. Lucas turned and saw Brooke leaning against a wall watching them.
"Pretty Girl are you going stand there all day or are you going to come and join your family," he said.
Brooke made her way over to her two favorite boys. She sat between them and kisses the top of Noah's head as she snuggled closer to Lucas. She couldn't think of any place she rather be then here with her little family.
Later after they had finished breakfast they all got dressed for the day.
Noah sat on the couch in the living room and said, "Daddy we go to zoo?"
"That's right buddy. We are going to the zoo. Today we are spending the whole day as a family. How does that sound buddy?" Lucas said.
"Yes!" Noah replied as he jumped off the couch throwing his fist in the air.
Lucas laughed at his son's antics. Brooke made her way back into the living room in time to she her son show is enthusiasm for spending the day with his parents. She laughed and grabbed Noah up into her arms and placed a kiss on his cheek.
"Lucas can you grab Noah's bag so we can go," she said.
He nodded his head and grabbed the bag as they all head out of the apartment and headed to the zoo.
"Look, look mommy that the monkeys," Noah said as he got up the close to the glass.
A small laugh escaped Brooke's mouth as she said, "I see buddy ", as she kneeled down next to him.
Lucas watched as mother and son interacted with each other. He couldn't believe that this was his life and that he got to spend the rest of his life with Brooke and Noah.
Lucas was brought out of his thoughts as Noah grabbed his arm and said, "Daddy we go see the lions?"
"Yup. We are going see the lions now." He said as he lifted Noah in his arms. He wrapped an arm around Brooke and placed a kiss to her temple as they made their way to the lions.
They made their way back into the apartment after a long day at the zoo. Noah was spread across Lucas fast asleep with his head on his daddy's shoulder. He made his way to Noah's room and changed him into his pajamas and placed him into bed.
Lucas kissed him on the head and said, "Goodnight son."
Lucas left Noah's room and walked into their bedroom to change his clothes. After he changed he walked back into the living room his saw that Brooke had changed clothes while he was putting Noah to bed. Brooke had lite a couple of candles and gotten a glass of wine for herself and bottle of beer for Lucas so they could relax and watch a movie.
He made his way over to the couch and sat down and Brooke curled up next to him.
Lucas turned to Brooke and said, "This has been one of the best days of my life. I'm blessed that you two are in my life and I love you both so much."
Brooke leaned up and kissed him on the lips and when they pulled apart she said, "I love you too."
"I have something for you," Lucas said.
Brooke got a good grin on her face and replied, "What did you get me?"
Lucas made his way to their bedroom and while he was rummaging through his bag he yelled, "Be patient Pretty Girl."
He grabbed the box from the bag and came back into the living room. Brooke was now sitting up on the couch and Lucas moved to kneel in front of her. Tears began to form in Brooke's eyes as she realized what was about to happen.
"Brooke I starting falling for you since I found you naked in the backseat of my car. I may have done some stupid things in my teenage years but you were still always in my heart. You are the one who I want standing next to me when all my dreams come true. I want to grow old with and make more babies with you. And if you want that too will you do me the honor of marrying me?" Lucas said.
Tears were streaming down her face as Lucas spoke. She finally calmed herself down enough to answer his question, "Yes, I will marry you. I'm ready to become your wife." She said with a smile.
Lucas opened the box and placed the 2-carat ring on Brooke's finger. She swept her up in his arms and kissed her with all the passion he had in him.
They finally broke apart from the kiss and Lucas cradled her in his arms and carried her to their room.
"I love you so much broody and I can't wait to marry you." Brooke said.
"I love you to Pretty Girl," he replied.
Brooke shrieked with happiness and said, "I can't wait to plan our wedding."
Lucas laughed as his fiancé's antics and tossed her on the bed and said, " Planning our wedding is going to have to wait till later because tonight Pretty Girl I have plans for you," he said with a smirk on his face.
The smile on Brooke's face grew and she said, "Do you now? Well why don't you come show me these plans?"
"I plan to do just that." Lucas replied as he covered her body with his and proceeded to make her forget her own name.
