Behind Closed Doors
Chapter 14
Lucas reached out to her. "I'm in love with you."
"Now and i will be for the rest of our life."
"You're growing our baby inside you."
"You're body will grow and change. I am going to love support and make you feel beautiful as much as i can." Lucas proclaimed.
Brooke's eyes filled with tears.
"Do you promise. This won't affect us in a negative way?" She asked.
"No. This will bring us closer then we've ever been." Lucas reassured her.
Lucas engulfed her into a hug. Brooke kissed him softly.
"I love you." Brooke said softly.
"I love you more Mrs. Brooke." Lucas replied. Holding her in his arms securely.
...
The couple had picked out a room for their future child.
Lucas had used the colors. Orange. Yellow. Green. To paint the nursery. They decided they wanted the gender to be revealed at the birth.
Brooke picked out the furniture needed for the nursery.
Crib. Changing table etc.
Lucas came home and Brooke met him in the entryway.
She took him by the hand and lead him upstairs.
Showing off the nursery.
At this point Brooke was 12 weeks along. The fetus was fully formed.
Morning sickness. Head aches. Mood swings.
"Look at you. So perfect." Lucas said. Touching her stomach. Which had now transformed into a small bump.
Brooke beamed. "We're going to be a family."
"You've given me love a family. My heart is so full." She proclaimed. With emotion in her voice.
Lucas leaned over kissing her hard.
"What do you want for dinner?" Lucas asked.
"Chicken parm. I brought dessert for us."
"A nice quiet dinner together. What more could i want or need." Brooke proclaimed.
...
Days later
In the morning
After breakfast and getting ready for the day. Brooke left their home. With a feeling of hope and joy.
Before heading to her store she stopped by the baby store in town.
And started to fill a cart with certain items. She couldn't resist to buy.
Family and friends knew of the couple's baby on the way at this point.
"So i guess the rumors are true. You're having Lucas's baby."
"I guess he forgave you for lying about being pregnant in high school. Sleeping with chris keller." Peyton proclaimed.
"You rejected Lucas's proposal. It's about time you get over yourself and let him go."
"Lucas is my husband and we're growing a family together."
"I would feel sorry for you. But you're a pathetic bitter hateful bitch."
"So you stay out of my way and i'll stay out of yours." Brooke proclaimed. As she made her way the checkout line.
