Chapter Eight: The Other Half Of Me.
Today was the big day. It was the wedding of Brooke Davis and Lucas Scott. Brooke's been waiting for this since she was nine; she had a whole wedding book dedicated to this day. Every detail was perfect. Her dreams were reality. She couldn't wait to walk down the aisle and become Mrs. Lucas Scott.
"Good morning, fiancé." Brooke said.
"Oh, no. Not again." Lucas replied dramatically.
"not again" what?" Brooke asked.
"This happens all the time. I sleep with a girl, and then the next morning, It was so amazing, she starts planning the wedding." Lucas said sitting up shirtless.
"Be careful, mister. Speaking of, Peyton says hi." Brooke replied flipping though a wedding catalogue.
"Oh. Ouch...By the way, we don't need any of this stuff Because I've been planning my dream wedding since I was nine." He said.
"Seriously?" She asked raising an eyebrow.
"Pink-and-black color scheme, First dance "hopelessly devoted to you," Peonies for the flowers, And a pineapple orange torte I mention I loved "grease 2"? He told her.
"I'm sorry I'm gonna have to disappoint you, princess, But this bride will be wearing A Clothes over Bros original,The flowers will be exotic white roses, Our first dance will not be to a song by Olivia Newton-John, or Elton John, Or lil' John for that matter. But you might be able to talk me into that orange pineappley cake, If I don't decide to do red-velvet cupcakes, 'cause that's what all the cool kids are doing right now." She explained.
"Well... I should probably get another job." He said.
"Here's the great thing about that. I have a few bucks squirrelled away. I own a clothing line, you know. Clothes over bros. You might have heard of it?" She told him.
"Oh, you're that Brooke Davis. Like, the rich Brooke Davis." He answered
"I am she." She said simply.
"Oh, I chose wisely." He replied.
"You did indeed. I believe we have plans for the day." She responded.
"I'll see you in the shower." He said smirking; getting up and going to the bathroom.
Nathan answered the door of his girlfriends house.
"Surpise!" The brunette haired figured said
"who are you?" Nathan asked polietly.
"Duh, I'm Hales's sister. Quinn. Where's my sister?" Quinn said.
"Quinn!" Haley exclaimed.
"Get your sexy butt over here!" She said
"What are you doing here? Where's David, Caleb and Matt?" She asked her sister.
"There are visiting Taylor. So god help me!"
"ooo. Why?"
"I guess he just wanted to."
"Nathan right? I want to tell you something you break her heart, break your face. K."Quinn said simply.
"I need your help. I want to dye my hair a brunette colour." Haley asked.
"Oh you want to look more like your sister I see."
"Let's do this!" Quinn said.
"Haley I'm going to take Jamie to the river-court; so you can spend time with Quinn." He replied; kissing her cheek.
"Let's go shopping!" Quinn squealed.
"Julian! Come on we have to go in a few hours!" Peyton yelled from upstairs.
"I can't find a baby-sitter for our kids, my mom can't. My dad doesn't wanna. So I guess I can't go." Julian said.
"Ugh, then what are we going to do? Maybe we should just take them with us?" She suggested.
"I guess we take them then."
"So who were you talking to?" She asked.
"My mom. God I wish she would stop calling me her ju-ju bee. I'm 24 years old. Not 5."
"I don't think it's lame that your mom still calls you JuJu-Bee." Peyton mumbled with a blush, after not hearing a word of what Julian had said.
"Stop it!" Julian groaned.
"What I'm just quoting my mother-in law."
Quinn and Haley came back with the dye.
"Lets get started." Quinn said going up the stairs.
"So what's the dealo with you and the boytoy of yours?" Quinn said washing Haley's hair.
"He makes me happy." Haley said.
"That's good Haley. Okay we have to keep this is in for and Hour okay?"
"Yep."
"Are you sure it's an hour; because I dyed it before and it only took 30 minutes." Haley said worriedly.
"Hello, your talking to the hair goddess; I've done this before you know?"
"Barley." Haley replied sourly.
"Call me after an hour."
Peyton and Brooke sat in the church that her best friend was getting married in.
"I can't believe your getting married ." She said
"I know! To be honest, I never thought I'd marry Luke. I always thought I'd find my prince charming later on in life; even though he was right in front of my eyes all this time, and getting married to him in less than 2 hours. I thought about something; why don't you and Hales be my matron/maid of honor? Will you do it please." She explained.
"Both of us, I don't know about that are you sure two maid of honors haven't been done before, you sure it's going to work?" She asked; fidgeting with her wedding ring.
"Do you know who your talking too? I always wanted you to be my maid of honor but ever since I met Haley. I didn't know what to do you both became my best friend. So I know this is going to work. I promise you that much. What's with Julian and you?" She asked.
"Okay I guess he's been quiet distant lately."
"I guess I should go get ready for my wedding." Brooke shrieked.
"Peyton, I'm getting married." She said happily.
"QUINN, I think you should remove the towel now." Haley said.
"Coming." She replied, she was soon interrupted when the doorbell rang.
" Hey Brooke sup?"
" Your Quinn James right?" Brooke asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"Because Haley showed me your work; and I totally forgot that I need a photographer at my wedding so will you please do it? I know it's last minute but your the best Tree Hill has to offer, and the James family."
"Fine." Quinn said.
"Can you come and help me with Hales."
"Yeah Sure."
"Hey Hales." Brooke said.
"Hey you. If you're wondering what this is, I just wanted to dye my hair to match Quinn's. It's a James' tradition you know?"
Haley removed her towel; Quinn, Brooke and Haley shocked at what they saw.
"QUINN! DID YOU CHECK THIS BEFORE BUYING IT." Haley said screaming.
"Woah, tutor girl, calm down. It doesn't look that bad. It kinda suits you."
"NO NO NO! THIS IS FREAKING GREEN! I HAVE GREEN HAIR. QUINN I SWEAR I'M GOING TO KILL YOU. SORRY BROOKE BUT I DON'T THINK I'M GOING TO GO TO YOUR WEDDING LOOKING LIKE A OOUMPA LUMPA."
"But I need you Hales;"
"Fine, but I'm going to wear something to cover this ugly shade of green."
"Okay."
It was wedding time!
Brooke stood in her changing room, wearing an elegant strapless white dress that hugged her chest area, a silver band around the waist area, and it was just nice and flowly with a long train. Her long brunette hair up in a neat bun; complimented by a silver beaded headband.
-Flashback-
The morning is exhausting. Makeup, getting her hair and nails done, putting her beautiful white coloured gown on. It doesn't even give her time to think or have second thoughts and, quite frankly, thank god for that. As a little girl, Brooke had dreamed of her wedding day way too many times to count, but now that it is finally happening, there is no time to contemplate how lucky she is that her dream is coming true.
-Flashback over-
Peyton and Haley opened the door.
"How are you feeling?" They asked.
"A little nervous." Brooke started shaking
"We all feel like that Brooke, but that all goes away when you see the man you love, it goes away. Trust me. You look beautiful by the way."
"Thank you guys. I love you guys."
"Not now, Victoria!" Brooke screams as her mother goes on another rant about how she's a failure. Or at least that's what she thinks the older woman is saying because she's pretty sure at one point she's heard the words "I'm proud of you" distinctly. The husky voiced young woman has little time to respond though. Her mother is out the door and she's walking down the aisle.
Brooke hears the marital march perfectly. Tears threaten to fall down her face but she contains them, in fear of ruining her makeup so early in the ceremony. "If you feel like crying, don't blink. Don't. Blink." Victoria had been saying not too long ago.
She spots him and it's like all the stress fades away; months of planning the ceremony and the reception, nerve wrecking days of deciding how to decorate and what to wear. They are all gone and they all had a purpose.
The purpose is standing in front of her. A smile on his lips that whisper, "you look beautiful." His sky blue eyes shiny from the tears he doesn't let roll down his face. His sand blonde hair tamed with so much hair gel it makes her giggle.
"I love you," Brooke whispers back, too emotional for the usual nicknames.
Broody, Boyfriend, the latest fiancé. Cheery, Pretty girl, the girl behind the red door, fiancée. She can list them all in no time and they all remind her of different times in their relationship. It all came down to this moment and she will be damned if it wasn't worth it.
Sometimes when you look back at your life certain moments stand out: the day you graduated high school, your wedding day, the day you found out you were going to be a father. Most of the time they happen in that order. Most of the time.
"We are gathered here today to witness a commitment between Brooke Penelope Davis and Lucas Scott." The minster told them.
It was time for the vows.
"Brooke, before I met you I thought my world had everything I needed to be happy. I had nothing else to compare it to, then you walked into my life and everything changed. I realized how empty my world was without you in it, and my old life was no longer capable of making me happy… not without you. I love everything about you, Brooke. I love the way you challenged me like no one ever has. I love the way you look at me like no one ever has, and I love the way you love me like no one ever has. I can't imagine spending my life without you, and if you say "yes" to me in a few minutes, I won't have to. You look beautiful by the way."Lucas recites his vows like he knows them by heart, not without tears either. Brooke chokes back a sob.
Lucas, before I met you my world revolved around one thing… me. And I liked it that way on my own, but then I met you and you saw through the facade. You saw me. You've taught me to trust, how to let someone in, and what it truly means to fall in love. I can't possibly describe how much I love you, so I'll tell you why I love you. You see the world in a way that no one else does and you appreciate everything, including me. There's no one in the world like you, and if you say "yes" in a few minutes, I'll get to spend the rest of my life trying to see the world through your eyes, appreciating everything, including you… the most unique, wonderful, and terribly handsome man I have ever met."
"Do you Lucas Eugene Scott take Brooke Penelope Davis to be your lawfully wedded wife for sickness and in health, for richer for poor, till death do you part?" The minster asked.
"I do." He said slipping on Brooke's 6 carat round diamond ring with a beaded band.
"Do you Brooke Penelope Davis, take Lucas Eugene Scott to be your lawfully wedded husband, for sickness and in health, for richer for poor, till death do you part?"
"I do." She said slipping on the silver ring.
"If anybody thinks these two people should not be married speak now, or forever hold your peace."
Skills got up and said "Don't nobody say nothing" He shouted; everyone started laughing.
"Alright, by the power invested in me in holy matrimony I pronounce you man and wife. Lucas Scott you may kiss your wife." The minster spoke.
"Finally." He kissed Brooke.
They had a few minutes to spare before the speeches and the first dance, and of course everyone's favourite part the reception, and if yuo get lucky tonight you might even score some points in the ladies department if ya know what I mean? (Slutty wedding sex)
"Hey , how does it feel to be Mrs. Lucas Scott." Peyton asked turning on the tape recorder from her back.
"It feels good. I married the man I love. Everything's perfect."
"So how'd you and Lucas meet?" Peyton asked.
"You already know this Peyton!" She told her best friend.
"I know but could you tell me again."
"Okay."
"We met through mutual friends in high school. He played for the Ravens basketball games where I was a cheerleader and from that point on we became the best of friends."
"How'd he propose?" Peyton asked.
It was Four Years after high school were Lucas and I met for dinner after work at one of my favorite restaurants in New York, Villa Blanca on the River. Before dinner, while waiting on our table, we went out on one of their balconies overlooking Riverstreet and he proposed! Of course the answer was yes!" She told her.
"What do you like best about your spouse?"
"His smile. No matter what kind of mood I may be in he always makes me laugh - he is my best friend!" Brooke said getting teary eyed.
Why did you choose Tree Hill for your wedding?
We were both born and raised in Tree Hill and it's home. There isn't a more beautiful place!" She said.
"Peyton are you done? You have to go make your speech."
"One more question ."
"Please list your top three favorite things about your wedding day and tell why:
1) Seeing Lucas when the church doors opened. The moment I saw him I was at ease. I will never forget that moment!
2) Sharing one of the most important days of my life with our friends and family. They mean the world to us.
3) The day - everything was absolutely amazing!"
"Hey Guys, it's time for the speeches!" Quinn said.
"Okay were coming. I love you B. Davis, you are amazing."
"Stop it bitch, your going to ruin my makeup."
Peyton and Brooke headed out; Brooke sat at a table with Lucas and Peyton said her Speech.
"My best friend - okay this one is so important; choose wisely, I got really lucky with mine. My best friend is funny, intelligent, creative, beautiful, and successful, and very kind. She's also impulsive, frustrating, um complicated, childish, but I would not have her any other way. And the best part about Brooke Davis is that she always puts friends first. And i know that when Lucas walked into her life; everything changed. I saw the Brooke Davis I always knew. So I hope your love and friendship for Lucas will continue to grow. I love you Brooke Davis. You've always been here for me, and today you got your happily ever after. "
Peyton showed the tape recording of the questions she asked Brooke.
Haley's Speech:
"Well, When I first met Brooke Davis, she had no idea who I was. Of course everyone knew who she was, she was the most popular girl in school. She was head cheerleader, annoyingly pretty (still is), and I used to wonder back then 'What would it be like to be friends with Brooke? Would she make me popular? Would all the boys start asking me out?' And then one night I got to hang out with Brooke, all night. Oh, and she didn't like my name, though, so she decided she was gonna give me a name that, uh, she did like, which ended up being Brooke. And from that moment I knew that I wanted Brooke to be my friend. Not because she was gonna make me popular, and not because boys would start asking me out, but because I got a glimpse of the real Brooke. A girl with the biggest heart that I have ever known. And you know, when you're in high school, it's not very easy to let people see who you really are. I could see it though, it was in the eyes. So we became friends, and now she's my best friend. We've been through so much together over the years, and our friendship is still growing. So I know that your friendship and love for Lucas will continue to grow every year for the rest of your lives and I feel so lucky to be a part of that. I love you, Brooke Davis."
Bestman Speech:
"J.K. Rowling once wrote:"the consequences of our actions are so complicated, so diverse that predicting the future is a very difficult business indeed".
J.K. Rowling was right. But what most of you don't know is Lucas was able to do it. He knew a long time ago that he would find Brooke. When Lucas was my age, which was a very, very, very,very long time ago,he went to a county fair, and he met a girl...not Brooke. But they went on a bunch of rides together, including the Octopus. Irrelevant to the story. But that night, Lucas felt a crush for the first time, a real crush. Relax, Aunt Brooke. He was my at the end of the night, they decided to break this bumper-car token in half. Lucas has kept his half all these years, not because he missed the girl, but because he knew somewhere out there was the other half, his perfect match. And he was right. Today my Uncle Lucas married my Aunt Brooke. She's probably the coolest girl I know and the girl Lucas's been waiting for since he broke this bumper-car token in half a long time ago at a county fair. And today my Uncle Lucas gave me this token. He said he didn't need it anymore because he found his other half. Congratulations, Uncle Lucas. I think it was worth the wait.
It was the end of the night and everyone headed home.
"Hey, did great tonight." Haley said tucking her son into bed.
"You think it was okay?" Jamie asked
"Okay? I have heard a lot of best man speeches in my life and yours was by far the sweetest, most honest, and the most memorable. I have never been so proud of you." Haley told him.
"Mama, why is your hair green?" Jamie asked pointing to the green in his mom's hair.
"Oh that my friend was your Aunt Quinn."
This was her fairytale.
Her dreams became a reality and it came true. February 2nd 2011.
Lucas is her dream.
