Hi everyone! Hope you all had a great week last week, sorry I didn't update much. My daughter started kindergarten and I was busy doing month end stuff at work. We are approaching the slow season so I'm hoping to be able to start updating twice a week starting next week... Thanks for your patience!

To all my reviewers (GG, thibbs95, sandygirl, Aschly, Britt, brucas, Diane and the few guests) you guys rock.

Thanks!

Chapter 5:

Lucas moved some hair out of her face, "I honestly didn't think I was ever going to see you again. I'm so glad you're here pretty girl." He pressed his head to hers.

Nathan cleared his throat, "We were told to limit contact Luke."

"I know, they tell us too." Lucas stepped back and headed towards a picnic table in the corner of the yard. Before he reached the table he stopped walking dead in his tracks, "Fuck it if I get in trouble I get in trouble." He grabbed Brooke's wrist and pulled her to him again and kissed her hard.

Brooke couldn't help it as she let herself deepen the kiss and run her hands through Lucas's blonde hair. Kissing him felt like a dream, she always thought that if the day came when she could taste his lips on hers she would stop it from happening because of her sister. Thinking of Lindsey now made Brooke pull away. She rubbed her burning lips and looked around at the other inmates enjoying visitors day. She was relieved that no guard had noticed the kiss because she was sure that broke the rules. "So... How is it going?"

Lucas smiled and sat down at the wooden picnic table, "I'm great now," he ran his hands through his hair, thinking of Brooke's hands being there only moments before. "Have a seat guys, welcome to my home away from home."

Haley shook her head, "This will never be your home Luke." Haley wiped away a few tears that had escaped from her eyes without her realizing it and opened her purse. "I have some new pictures for you. I was told we were allowed to bring you some pictures so I thought you would like to see your family."

Lucas took the photos from Haley, "Jamie looks huge, what are you feeding him Hales?"

Haley shrugged, Nathan put his arm around his wife's shaking shoulder, "It's the age, they grow like weeds when they're little. He is starting pre-school in the fall if you can believe it."

Lucas smiled and shut his eyes, he opened them a few minutes later and looked at the rest of the pictures, "When was this one taken of mom? She looks very thin."

"She's still having a hard time with all of this Luke," Nathan said with a sigh, "Dad is too, we haven't told them about the possibility of Lindsey being alive. We all thought it was best, I don't want to get her hopes up you know."

Lucas nodded thinking of his parents Keith and Karen Scott. Lucas reached across the table and rubbed Brooke's hand, "What about Ted and Victoria? Do they know about Lindsey?"

"No, again we thought it would be best not to clue them in till we know anything concrete." Brooke smiled a sad smile, her parents had changed greatly since Lindsey's disappearance, every time she saw them now they were fighting. Her dad had confided in her a few weeks ago that they were no longer sharing a room, he slept in their bedroom and her mother was practically living in Lindsey's old room.

"I want to address the Lindsey elephant right now then I want to spend the rest of our visit talking about anything else. Lindsey always loved being the center of attention, if she could see us now she would love it, just knowing that we are talking about her." Lucas looked down at the carvings on the table top, "I'm not going to stop fighting to clear my name, either she's alive in Rio with Chris Keller or the body we buried almost 18 months ago was in fact hers. I'm tired of living my life on Lindsey's terms," he pulled Brooke's hand to his lips, "I want to move on, concentrate on my family, old and new." He looked at Nathan and Haley, "I love you guys, we always talked about raising our families together, the way I see it I'm behind." He smiled again, "I'm going to get out of here and when I do," he looked at Brooke, "I'm going to take you out on a proper date and if you'll have me I'm never going to let you go."

Before any of them realized it the bells rang out that visiting day was nearly over. Lucas hugged Nathan, "Keep taking care of everyone little brother. Love Haley and give Jamie a big kiss from his Uncle Luke alright." Nathan nodded, Haley was next on the hug line, "Take care of my brother Hales, you know when he's too concerned about everyone else his health suffers."

Haley wiped away a few more tears, "I will Luke, keep your head up. Hopefully we'll hear back from Mr. Edwards's guy soon. We miss you at family dinner."

Lucas groaned out, "I miss family dinners, the food in here isn't terrible but it might as well be slop in comparison to family dinner at the Scott house." Brooke was next, Lucas pulled her in for a hug and didn't want to let go, "Take care of yourself pretty girl, thank you for coming to see me, it means more to me than you'll ever know." He pulled away and put his hands on her cheeks and kissed her softly, "I love you, I know my timing is shit, it ALWAYS has been..." He kissed her again, "But please know that my feelings for you are genuine."

Brooke leaned into his chest, "I do. I love you too. Keep your chin up alright because when you get out of here I'm holding you to what you said. And I know just the place for our first date."

Lucas felt his whole body tingle at her words, he wasn't sure if she truly loved him yet on a romantic level, but he looked forward to one day hearing her utter those words and not having any doubts. He looked up and saw the other inmates going inside, "I better head in, they're very strict on visiting hours, besides I don't want anyone thinking I get special treatment." He waved to them one last time, "Drive safe Nate."

He turned and headed towards the double doors, "Wait!" Brooke called out. He turned around a second time, "Here," Brooke handed him a manila envelope, "This is for you, open it after we leave." She jogged back to Nathan and Haley and blew him a kiss. Lucas made a spectacle about "catching" the kiss and pressing it to his heart.

After the last of the inmates entered the mess hall they shut the big doors, "That girl you were kissing was hot Scott. Is she a prison groupie? Does she have a sister?" A fellow inmate asked him.

"She is gorgeous isn't she?" Lucas grinned, "Not a groupie and nope, she's an only child."

A guard came up to him, "Inmate Scott, your visitors left you a care package, it's been screened and deemed alright, go pick it up at intake before heading back to your cell before dinner hours."

Lucas nodded and headed to intake, he waited patiently in the line. 'She kissed me back,' he thought to himself, rubbing his lips, 'I wish I could see her everyday, today went by too fast,' he thought with a sigh. He got to the window, "I have a package, inmate Scott, inmate number 06042010."

The woman behind the glass smiled and said, "One moment please." She came back a few moments later, "Here you go," she placed the box in the glass box to her left, "After I close the drawer you can open it and remove your package."

Lucas headed back to his single cell, because he was considered "high profile" when he came here he was given a single bed cell for his own protection. He went through the open barred door and sat on his bed. He stared at his two packages and the pictures Haley had given him. He decided to open Brooke's package last, he opened the re-taped box and smiled. The box contained extra soap, disposable razors, a pack of six plastic picture frames, three pairs of socks and an assortment of snack food. At the bottom of the box he smiled, it was a gray cotton hoodie with the Keith Scott Automotive logo on the back. He brought it to his face and breathed in the delicate smell of orange fabric softener. "Thanks guys," he said aloud. He took the three pictures Haley had given him, put them in the new frames and placed them on the small metal desk at the back of his small cell. "Now let's see what Brooke brought us," he said to himself. He ripped open the manila envelope and gasped at the contents, he picked up the pictures. There was a picture of her with Rachel and Haley, one of her and her parents and a few of them together. He traced the lines of her smile on one of the last pictures, it was from a Halloween party four years ago. Lucas had gone as baseball player and Brooke was a 1950's pin up girl. In the photo Lucas was holding a baseball bat on his shoulder and Brooke had her hands linked on his elbow and had leaned into him and smiled. The picture had come out prefect, they almost looked like a couple in this photo Lucas thought. The last picture was a shot of Brooke in a bikini blowing a kiss to the camera. Lucas recognized it immediately it was the last picture he took of her before he was arrested. "Thank you Brooke," he said to the air in his cell, "Thank you so much."

*One Month Later-

Brooke propped the grocery bags on her hip as angled the rest of her body against the door and put the key in the lock of her front door. She entered her apartment and went to the kitchen, she screamed when she realized she wasn't alone. "Rachel Virginia Gatina! I could have killed you." Brooke huffed, "That key is for emergencies only."

"This is an emergency bitch I need to raid your closet." Rachel said as she took one of the bags from Brooke's arms. "I need a great first date look."

"Oh that's right tonight's the night isn't it?" Brooke smiled, "The big first date with Dr. Adams."

Rachel looked over at Brooke, "This is still alright with you right?"

"Yes, Chase is a great guy." Brooke laughed, "You NEED a great guy in your life. You date assholes usually."

Rachel grabbed Brooke's hand, "Are you sure this isn't too weird? Because I can cancel if it's too weird for you."

Brooke put her hands on Rachel's shoulders, "Rach it's wonderful. I'm fine with it, Chase and I were never serious, we barely kissed for crying out loud. I'm glad he called you, I told him that he should. Now let me finish putting this food away then we'll see what I have in my closet."

Rachel hugged her, "I'm nervous, I don't think I've ever been nervous about a date before. Why am I nervous?"

"Because you LIKE him obviously," Brooke turned when she heard the phone ring, "I need to get that it might be Luke."

Rachel started putting away the groceries and Brooke answered the phone, "Hello."

"Brooklyn Penelope Davis you are in deep trouble missy." Victoria Davis said into the receiver.

Brooke furrowed her brow, "Why am I in trouble now?"

"I just got served with exhumation papers, the district attorney wants to exhume Lindsey's body. When I called Mr. McFadden's office his assistant told me that they recently received evidence to support that my daughter might be alive and the body we buried might be a fake." Victoria paused to catch her breath, "Your father and I just went to his office and met with him to see how credible this supposed witness is and he informed us that YOU brought the evidence to their attention. So I'll say it again but you are in trouble young lady. I always knew that you had a thing for Lucas Scott, but to defend him after he brutally murdered your sister just takes this infatuation to a new level."

"This doesn't have anything to do with Lucas mom, it's about Lindsey. She's alive mom, the private investigator must have found something or they wouldn't want to dig up whatever unfortunate soul is buried in the family plot." Brooke pinched the bridge of her nose, "I'm sorry you found out the way you did, I wanted to tell you mom but I didn't want to get your hopes up until we did some digging."

"Lindsey used to tell me about your obsession with Lucas, I just thought she was exaggerating." Victoria choked, "Now I've lost both my children."

Before Brooke could respond her mother hung up. Brooke placed the phone back on the cradle, "Rach," she called out.

Rachel came into the living room, "What is it B? Are you alright? You look like you've seen a ghost."

"I'll be fine, the DA's office is going to exhume Lindsey's body for additional DNA testing. That was my mother on the telephone, she was angry." Brooke sighed, "She said I might as well be dead now too, since I chose Lucas over Lindsey."

"Victoria Davis," Rachel paused, "This original queen bitch. She'll get over it, your dad will talk to her."

Brooke opened her mouth to speak when her cell phone rang, "I'm very popular today. Hello."

"Miss Davis it's Jimmy Edwards, we found her."

So what do you all think? Let me know and review, review, review!

Thanks!

Author's Note: I did a little bit of research about prison visits and care packages, not sure how accurate some of those exchanges in the chapter are, but I tried to find as much info as I could. :)
