Hey guys, I know that its been a few weeks since my last update. I hope that each of you had a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year's. Personally, I didn't have power during Christmas and therefore we didn't get to eat until late that night. It's okay though. So, I don't really have a One Tree Hill rant this time, other than I don't see why Mark has to waste my time with the whole Brooke and Julian relationship. I just assume for Julian to be with Alex. I'm glad that he and Brooke are I guess "over" cause he's just going to cheat on her anyway. So, that's all for my rant. Not a bad one just an observation really. Ok, So I hope that you guys like this chapter. Its just been hard to find inspiration to do much lately. I love this story so much and I enjoy doing it for you guys. Most of all I enjoy the reviews. They're so nice and they do mean a lot to me. I'm just happy that you guys don't tell me that I suck and I should never write anything ever, that I should go in the gutter and die. Please, don't harass me like that, I would cry. Gosh, I'm so off subject now. Well I hope that you guys like this chapter and I've taken into account the suggestions I was given. As always reviews are welcome and so are ideas for the story cause I know I get writers block like crazy sometimes.

Lucas sighed as his cab pulled up in the driveway of his and Brooke's house. He didn't want to take a cab home, but Nathan and Haley had left after the fight that he'd had with Brooke and it had left him stranded at the party with Lindsey.

"Thanks for the ride" Lucas said as he handed the cab driver a twenty and got out of the cab before shutting the door behind him.

Lucas walked up the front steps and looked at his watch by the glow of the porch light. He sighed when he saw that it was 1:30 am. He reached for the doorknob and rolled his eyes when he realized that Brooke had locked him out. He didn't understand why Brooke had to be so immature about this. Lindsey was just his friend. His history with her didn't matter, if anything it only led him back to Brooke. She should be thankful that Lindsey was his editor, if she wasn't then Lucas wouldn't have been in New York than night and he wouldn't have met up with Brooke again.

Lucas rang the doorbell and waited for Brooke to answer. He was surprised to come face to face with Nathan as the door swung open.

"Nate, what are you doing here?" Lucas asked bewildered taking a step back away from his brother.

"I'm staying here tonight. Haley and Brooke are having a girls night" Nathan explained.

"Oh, do you think they're still up?" Lucas asked walking into his house.

"Luke man I wouldn't go over there" Nathan said running a hand through his hair. "Brooke is really hurt man"

"Nathan, nothing happened with Lindsey" Lucas explained as he loosened his tie and sat down on the couch.

"Then why wouldn't you tell your wife about this?" Nathan asked.

"I don't know man. It wasn't important. I thought Brooke would be a little bit more mature about this" Lucas explained as Nathan sat on the couch beside him.,

"Luke, I know you're my brother but you're so dumb sometimes" Nathan grabbed the remote and turned the TV on.

"You're so much help Nathan. What am I going to do?" Lucas asked as a soft cry came from the back of the house.

"You can start by going and getting your son" Nathan said. "Then sleep off whatever it is you've drank tonight and talk to your wife tomorrow"

"Yeah" Lucas said getting up and walking down the hall to Isaiah's nursery.

Lucas opened the door and found Isaiah standing in his crib holding the railing. His face dark red as fat tears rolled down his chubby cheeks as his arms reached out to Lucas.

"What's the matter buddy?" Lucas asked walking over to the crib to see his son.

"Dada" Isaiah said through strangled sobs. He continued to reach up for Lucas.

"Isaiah, you need to go to sleep pal" Lucas said looking down at his son.

"DADA" Isaiah screamed throwing his body backwards as he realized his father wasn't going to pick him up.

"Okay…okay" Lucas said reaching down into the crib to pick Isaiah up. Lucas walked over to the glider and sat down with Isaiah whose sobs were now subsiding.

"You are just like your mother" Lucas explained as he rocked with his son in the glider.

"Mama?" Isaiah asked as he looked towards the door.

"Yes, mama" Lucas answered.

"Bye bye?" Isaiah said pointing to the door.

"Nope, we're going to go to sleep" Lucas explained as he got up from the glider and turned off the light in the nursery and grabbed Isaiah's blue basketball blanket and pacifier out of the crib before sitting back down in the glider.

"No" Isaiah said turning his head away as Lucas wrapped the blanket around him and tried to give him his pacifier.

"Isaiah, daddy has had a long night, so it would mean a lot to me if you'd please just go to sleep" Lucas said running the pacifier along Isaiah's lips. He sighed thankfully as Isaiah opened his mouth and took it before curling up against Lucas' chest.

"Thank you buddy" Lucas said placing a kiss on his son's forehead as he watched Isaiah's eyes flutter closed as they rocked.

Haley and Nathan's House

"I'm just so pissed at him" Brooke said as she and Haley laid in Haley and Nathan's bed in the dark.

"I know you are" Haley said

"I mean why would he not tell me, Haley?" Brooke asked

"I don't know" Haley said as she yawned and turned her head to look at Brooke.

"I've had two kids for God's sake. I'm sorry I'm not a negative size" Brooke said looking up at the ceiling.

"Brooke, you are skinny. You are beautiful…Lucas was just an ass for hiding it from you" Haley said turning to face her friend.

"I just hate that this is always our problem I mean even in high school with Peyton, then the stuff with Chase, and now this" Brooke said sadly.

"I'm sure he has a reason for not telling you. I mean I know how Lucas is and so do you" Haley said.

"He just knows that this hurts me, I hate being lied to Haley and he does it time and time again" Brooke shook her head as she fought back tears.

"I'm sorry Brooke" Haley said.

"I just don't know what to do anymore" Brooke said "It's like things can never be good for us. Something bad always has to happen"

Haley watched as the tears that she knew Brooke had fought all night finally fell. She felt sympathy for her sister in law and friend and couldn't help the deep anger that radiated through her with the feeling that Lucas could lie to Brooke. "I'm really sorry Brooke"

"It's ok" Brooke said wiping her eyes. "I've realized that no matter what I'm never going to be good enough for Lucas"

"Brooke, that isn't true. You are Luke's life" Haley assured.

"I don't think so anymore" Brooke confessed.

"Yes you are. I promise you" Haley assured by placing a hand on Brooke's shoulder and offering a smile.

"I don't know what I'll do if there's more. What am I going to do if he's slept with her?" Brooke asked.

"I'm sure he didn't do that Brooke. Luke isn't that guy anymore" Haley said.

"I hope not" Brooke said "I just want him to get a new editor" Brooke rolled over to face the window away from Haley.

"Tell Lucas that" Haley said

"Yeah, that would go over so well Haley" Brooke said shaking her head.

"You never know" Haley said

"Yeah" Brooke said as she closed her eyes and tried to drift off to sleep.

THE NEXT MORNING

"Where's mommy?" Hannah asked as Lucas cut her waffle and fruit up for her.

"Mommy spent the night with Aunt Haley last night" Lucas explained handing his daughter her fork and sitting down to feed Isaiah some oatmeal.

"Oh, ok" Hannah said satisfied with her father's explanation and started to eat her breakfast.

"Dada" Isaiah said as he slapped the table of his highchair and opened his mouth, waiting for his breakfast.

"Well someone's hungry this morning" Lucas said as he scooped up a spoonful and placed it in his son's mouth. Lucas laughed softly as he watched his son eat his breakfast and turned his head as he heard the front door open. He put the oatmeal on the table as he watched Brooke come in the front door.

"Hey" Lucas said as he got up form his chair and looked at her.

"Hi" Brooke said looking down at the floor instead of at Lucas.

"I'm sorry Brooke" Lucas said taking a step towards Brooke.

"I hope so" Brooke said looking up at Lucas.

"I am Brooke, I promise you sweetheart" Lucas took the remaining steps towards Brooke and tilted her chin to look at him.

"Why wouldn't you tell me Lucas?" Brook asked

"Cause there's nothing to tell" Lucas said

"Is that the kind of girl that you want?" Brooke asked "Cause I love you Lucas but I can't…"

"Brooke" Lucas interrupted "YOU…are the one that I want. I love you so much baby girl…I'm sorry that I hurt you and I would never betray your trust. I know we have a lot of history with it but I will never hurt you Brooke I promise"

"I just wish you would have told me" Brooke said as the tears welled in her eyes.

"I'm sorry" Lucas said pulling her into his arms.

"I'm sorry too" Brooke closed her eyes and relaxed in his arms.

"Dada dada dada" Isaiah called as he beat against the top of his high chair.

Brooke and Lucas pulled back from each other and looked at their son. "I think you're being called"

"Yeah, he's pretty hungry" Lucas said smiling.

"I figured he would be" Brooke said waving at her little boy who smiled back at her.

"You want to feed him?" Lucas asked

"No….I believe he's calling for you" Brooke said "Besides I need to take a shower"

"Mm…baby you shouldn't talk like that" Lucas said

"Nice try" Brooke said shaking her head and walking into the living room.

Lucas shook his head and sat back down in his chair and grabbed Isaiah's oatmeal. "That wasn't very fair for mommy to tease daddy like that"

"Mama" Isaiah said opening his mouth for a spoonful of oatmeal.

Nathan and Haley's House

"No way" Peyton said as Haley finished telling her about the events that happened last night.

"Yeah, I swear Brooke was so hurt" Haley said.

"Luke's such a weenie" Peyton said

"I know it. I mean it's one thing for him to be hanging out with Lindsey but another for him to be keeping it from Brooke" Haley explained.

"Are they okay now?" Peyton asked

"Yeah, Brooke went home this morning and Nathan took Jamie, Isaiah and Hannah to a birthday party. So I guess that Brooke and him are talking" Haley said getting up from the couch to check on Leah who was still napping.

"Mommy" Jenny said coming into Nathan and Haley's living room.

"Yes?" Peyton asked.

"When are we going home?" Jenny asked taking a seat by Peyton.

"In a little bit…mommy has to stop and get Emily and Hayden from Grandpa Larry's house and then we're going to go home" Peyton said.

"I had fun with you today mommy" Jenny said "Thank you for lunch"

"Well you are welcome Miss Jenny Jaglieski" Peyton said as Haley walked back into the living room.

"She ok?" Peyton asked.

"Yeah. She's fine Nathan wore her out before he left so that means she's not going to sleep tonight" Haley said

"Let him deal with it" Peyton said

"Oh…I plan on it" Haley said "Either that or I'm going to tease him like crazy in the bedroom"

"You shouldn't make fun of Nathan" Jenny said "He's nice"

"What are you talking about Jenny?" Peyton asked.

"She said she was going to tease him mommy….you tell me teasing isn't nice" Jenny said

"Yeah…and it's not Jenny…don't ever tease" Peyton said looking at Haley who mouthed and "I'm sorry"

Lucas and Brooke's House

"Luke please" Brooke whimpered as she ground down against him.

Lucas groaned as he held onto Brooke's hips and moved her on top of him. "God Brooke"

Brooke closed her eyes and threw her head back as she moved faster against Lucas. "Luke, I'm so close"

"That's it baby girl" Lucas encouraged as he watched Brooke lean forward and grip the pillow under his head.

Brooke bit her lip and moaned as she started to grind against Lucas getting as much pressure on her sensitive clit as she could.

"Shit Brooke" Lucas said as he felt his cock throbbing inside of her.

RRRRRRIIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGGGG

Lucas groaned as he heard the phone ring. He tightened his grip on Brooke's hips as he tried to slow her. "I need to get the phone"

"Luke, please I'm so close…I just need a few more minutes" Brooke pleaded.

"It's going to take 5 minutes baby" Lucas said reaching for his cell phone and answering his call.

"Hello?" Lucas said

"Hey Luke. I know it's Saturday but I really need to talk to you" Lindsey said on the other line.

"Um…I can't" Lucas said.

"It's about your book….I'm sorry Luke but it can't wait" Lindsey said

"Umm…can we do it later?" Lucas asked as he looked up at Brooke who continued to rock against him slowly.

"No…it has to be today" Lindsey said.

"I'll meet you at the office" Lucas said

"Actually I'm at the hotel…Room 2132...I'll see you then…bye Luke" Lindsey said and hung up before he had a chance to respond.

Lucas put his phone on the bed and looked at Brooke who'd started moving faster against him. "Brooke, we got to stop"

"Luke please baby I'm almost done…I promise" Brooke pleaded again she took his hand and brought it to where their bodies were joined "Help me"

"I can't baby…I need to go" Lucas said moving his hands back to her hips and pulling her off of him.

"Can't you go to the office later?" Brooke asked laying down on the bed.

"I wish I could" Lucas said as he got out of bed. Brooke watched as Lucas grabbed his pants and boxers and slid them up his hips. He groaned when he confined his rock hard erection in his pants and zipped them.

"What am I going to do?" Brooke asked taking Luke by the hand and sliding it between her thighs. "I'm so wet for you"

Lucas groaned and flicked her swollen clit and pulled his hand away. "Touch yourself and think about me"

"Can I call you when I do it?" Brooke asked.

"My cell is always on" Lucas said smiling.

"I'd rather call you at the office" Brooke said "I mean you are going to be there right?"

"Yeah, I am…I just don't want anyone to hear you but me" Lucas said.

"Ok" Brooke said as she watched Lucas pull his shirt on.

"I'll be home later this evening" Lucas said leaning down to kiss her.

"I love you" Brooke said as she watched him grab his phone and walk out the door.
