Our Time

Chapter 5

authors note : More on the way. Thank you my readers.

I think i might of loved you. But i just need to let it go.

It wasn't until Blaine was grabbing his bookbag and lunchbox did Brooke realize he was wearing a Scott auto body shop hoodie.

"Where did you get that sweetheart?" Brooke asked.

"I found in daddy's closet he said i could have it."

"Why is daddy sad now?" Blaine questioned.

Brooke gazed up at him. "You're dad had his heart broken and he's dealing with feeling better."

"You know who makes him so happy?" Brooke asked.

"A new book." Blaine replied.

"No. You honey. I think he could use some quality time with you."

"How about we surprise him afterschool. You could spend the night. What do you think?" Brooke questioned.

"I like that idea momma. We have to go to the grocery store first."

"Daddy's all out of snacks." Blaine said.

"We'll do that. I love you. Have the best day." Brooke said.

"I love you too." Blaine said. As he left the car.

Brooke waited until Blaine went through the school doors before she drove to the store.

...

Lucas thought Peyton had collected everything but she left behind her record player and records. In the spare room.

Whether it was by accident or on purpose when he saw it. He saw her. And he was having a hard enough time not thinking of her and letting go.

...

As Brooke dealt with her regular customers. She was glad to see Haley appear for girl bonding time. Coming in after her was Peyton.

"I heard you came to get Luke from Tric. Thank you taking care of him." Haley said.

"He's important to me and he's Blaine's dad. So i will always try to make sure he's doing well." Brooke replied.

"Are things going to be alright between us Brooke?" Peyton questioned.

"Our friendship will always mean something to me." Brooke replied.

"You're family to me Brooke. I don't want that to change." Peyton insisted.

I let Lucas go for you and look at the mess you made. Brooke thought to herself.

"Are you happy?" Haley asked.

"I am. We are. We picked up where we left off."

"I'm pregnant." Peyton announced.

Brooke stared at her wide eyed.

...

Sometime later

Brooke and Blaine made their way through the aisles. Filling their cart. Once they left. They drove straight to Lucas's.

Blaine knocked on the door. Eager to see his father.

Brooke knocked before she got out her phone and texted Lucas to come down and open the door.

Lucas soon appeared at the front door.

And Brooke could smell alcohol and smoke on him instantly.

"Daddy we came by so i could spend the night and we could spend time together. I've missed you." Blaine said.

Lucas smiled softly. "I've missed you son." He replied.

"I would love for you to spend the night but i have work to get done. And i wouldn't be able to spend real time with you." Lucas explained.

"That's okay. I can wait until you're done. I'll stay in my room. Please daddy." Blaine replied.
