Enjoy!!!

Thanksgiving was next week, but since I had a free Thursday afternoon I decide to book a ticket to New York and go surprise Lucas. I know he only came to see me a couple weeks ago, but being with him all the time to suddenly not be had hit me hard.

I knew this long distance stuff would be super hard because I saw Rach go through it, but I didn't realise it would be this hard.

I got off the plane and grabbed my bag and flung it on my shoulder. I went outside to grab a taxi and headed to Lucas's campus.

Once we had pulled up I gave the taxi guy the fare and got out looking at all the possible buildings that could be his. I looked down at my phone and looked through my messages trying to find his building name.

North Place.

I turned north and hoped that is why it is called that and headed that way. I got to the building and saw North Place written across the top. I remembered what floor he was on and walked into the building as someone was leaving.

I walked up the I flights of stairs and almost got to the top of the last step when I saw a dorm room door open and a girl walked out. She turned around and smiled at someone behind her.

"I'll see you later Luke" she says hugging him and them pulling away just as my head was seen.

"Brooke" I stood up the next step as he said my name "I didn't know you were coming"

"That was the point" I reply dropping my bag to the floor "friend of yours?" I ask nodding to the girl who had stopped when she saw me.

"Hi" she greeted "I'm Aria"

"Hi Aria" I give a fake smile and then turn my eyes back to Lucas "I'm his girlfriend"

"Oh your the famous girlfriend he can't live without" she says and I could see her eyes move to Lucas's. Oh wow I know that look.

"I am she" I say wanting to punch her in the face. How dare she give him that look right in front of me and then try and be a nice person. Oh she is lucky high school Brooke graduated other wise I'd wipe her all over this corridor.

"What you doing here Pretty Girl?" at the corner of my eye I could see her make a face when he called me pretty girl and I held my tongue.

"What" I reply " am I not allowed to come and visit my boyfriend. Am I not allowed to surprise you?"

"No Brooke. I didn't mean it like that. I just thought we were going to see each other at thanksgiving that's all"

"Well I missed you and thought I'd drop by for the weekend, but I can do back to Cali if you wish because I know where I'm not needed or wanted"

"That isn't what I meant"

"Okay well Lucas I'm going to go, but I'll see you tonight right?" Aria says placing a hand on Lucas's arm. I swear to god if I don't drop kick this bitch right now.

"Actually now that I'm here we are making different plans, so you can see your self out this conversation and go away" I shoo at her.

She gave me a dirty look and then huffed and stomped away.

"Brooke you didn't need to do all that" Lucas says letting me into his dorm room.

"No Lucas what didn't need doing was the fact that you stood there and let her flirt with you right in front of me" my bag drops to the floor again "the way she looked at you and spoke to you and you just stood there and let her do it and there's me thinking it'd be nice to come and surprise you"

"I didn't flirt back though Brooke. I never flirt back. That's just an Aria thing"

"An Aria thing. Wait you mean this happens all the time?"

"Yo Luke, I just saw Aria and she looked mad as hell" Aaron says walking into our dorm room "she said you weren't going to the bar tonight I thought" he stopped when he saw Lucas and I in the room and I had this mad look on my face "Oh sorry man I didn't realise you had a chick in here"

"A chick?" I screw my nose up in distaste of that word "did you just call me a chick"

"Brooke come on" Lucas says trying to calm me down a little.

"Oh this is Brooke" Aaron nods realising who I was "no wonder Aria looked mad" Aaron laughed a little shaking his head.

"Why would she be mad?" I asked knowing the answer, but wanted some clarification.

"Well she likes your boy over here" Aaron says being straight forward "and the fact Lucas doesn't care makes her like him even more. Mel says Aria usually gets what she wants"

"Ha" I laugh to myself in disbelieve of what I was hearing. This was meant to be a nice visit because I missed him and wanted to see him and spend the weekend with him "I'm going to go" I say picking up my bag and slinging it on my shoulder.

"Brooke wait" Lucas calls out as I head for the door "please stay. I'm sorry about Aria and I'm sorry you had to witness what she was doing"

"Lucas I can't do this" I say in a lower voice.

"I'm going to give you the room tonight dude, I'll stay with Mel or something" Aaron says. Lucas nodded to him and he left.

"Okay Brooke can we just talk about this please?"

"We are in college and it feels like we are dragging each other down and taking the experience away from each other" l tell him "I don't want to have to worry about anything Lucas. Just want to have my time in college and enjoy it"

"Does this have anything to do with that guy Jason?" my mouth dropped and I couldn't believe what he had just said

"You have got to be kidding me" I shake my head and turn away from him "Jason and I are just friends Lucas. I've told you that multiple of times. He is not flirting with me the way that girl was flirting with you. He is in love with some other girl and it isn't me"

"Okay okay I'm sorry I just don't want this to end Brooke. We've been through so much and I can't just watch it end" he walks toward me and takes my hand in his "please don't go just stay and let's spend some time together. We won't go to the bar, we'll just go for some food"

I looked back at him and having just him holding my hands gave me that feeling it did when he first kissed me. Having those butterflies flutter in my stomach. I loved him. I really did so much and I know he loves me just as much maybe even more.

I closed my eyes to fight back the emotions I was feeling and I slowly nodded my head "okay Luke okay I'll stay" he gave me a smile as I opened my eyes and he leaned in placing a sweet kiss to my lips.

"Thank you" he whispered as he took my bag off my shoulder and placed down beside his bed "let's go for some food you must be starving and then we'll go to the store and grab a whole lot of snacks and watch a movie tonight" he grabs his keys and then my hand and we head out.

It was nice being with Lucas again. So the trip didn't go as planned at first and yes I know I was going to leave, but right now I'm glad I stayed. We went for some Chinese food which he knows is my favourite and then we spent so much on the store.

We were back at his dorm now with all our goodies spread out on the bed in front of us. We were going to watch insidious. I haven't seen it before and the girls said it was good. Lucas pressed play and we sat back and watch it.

"Okay so that was scary" I love my hands from my face and Lucas laughed "it was good though"

"You had your eyes closed here most of the time Brooke" he laughed some more

"Well I want to be able to sleep tonight Luke"

"Who said anything about sleeping" he gave me that cheesy smile then leaned in and kissed. Oh I've missed him so much.

The next morning I woke to Lucas bringing me breakfast from his favourite breakfast spot. I sat up in his bed with his duvet covering me. Last night was amazing. He was amazing.

"I got you a caramel latte with cream and a everything breakfast bagel with cream cheese" he place sit down in front of me

"It smells amazing baby, thank you" I motion for a kiss and he leans down gives me one.

"So how long you here?" Lucas asks as I take a sip of my latte.

"Until tomorrow morning. My flight is an early one because I have a date with my fashion piece I have to finish for my class before I leave for thanksgiving"

"So you're still going home for thanksgiving?"

I look up at him mid bite of the bagel and raise an eye brow confused. Of course I was going home for thanksgiving. Isn't that what we had planned. The whole group having a big thanksgiving with everyone there.

"Aren't you?" I question back "Because last I remember we all agree to going home for thanksgiving"

"Yeah no I know" he nods sitting on the sofa opposite his bed "you just never mentioned it and I didn't want to bring it up in case you changed your mind"

"No I'll be there. It'd be nice to see the group again. It's been too long" and it has. I mean I promised the girls that I'd video call them once a week and I have upholded that, but it isn't the same. Not really.

"Okay" he nods "So I'm thinking maybe we could go for a walk since it isn't raining today and maybe for some lunch and then we could go bowling or something"

"We could go to this" I hand him the flyer that flew under the door when I got up to go to the bathroom earlier "it looks super cool. I think it's at some bar tonight" Lucas looked down at the flyer and then back at me and I knew that look. I scoffed and sipped my latter again "that's the bar that girl works at isn't it"

Lucas nodded "we don't have to do that we could just do something else"

I let out a small sigh "no it's okay we can go. Its a college raver, I've been too so many before we started. Dylan loves to rave"

The rest of the morning I finished my breakfast and then we went for that walk Lucas wanted to go on and then went too this cute spot for some lunch which was lovely. We were now back at the from currently getting ready for this college party thing at the bar.

"Lucas dude are you going to that party at the student place tonight?" I heard Aaron say as he walked into.

"Yeah, just waiting for Brooke to finish getting ready" Lucas replies "where's Mel?"

"With Aria at the bar. I'm meeting them there"

So she wasn't working tonight. I sigh to my self. Great how fun this is gong to be.

"Okay cool, you wanna head with Brooke and I or you going now?"

"I just came to grab my wallet and change my shoes, but I can wait if you want"

"Nah its cool mate, don't know how long she will be"

"I'm ready baby" I say walking out in my short red halter neck dress with a pair of glittered ruby heeled shoes. My hair was curled half up and half down. My makeup was light.

"Wow" Aaron's face dropped "you are one lucky dude Lucas. Your girl is smoking hot. No wonder you don't want to lose that. She's fire" Aaron complimented.

"You look amazing pretty girl* Lucas walked towards me and pecked my lips "and he is right I am lucky and you do look fire. Best girl that I've ever seen"

"Thank you baby. You ready" he nods "I'll just grab my coat" I grabbed my cropped black jacket from my duffle bag and my black purse and we were out.

Please review!!!

Love you all so much
