Meant To Be
Chapter 1
Our night of fake engagement. Was a combination of alcohol. Shared memories. And playing pretend.
That carriage ride through the park. Stirred up something in us both. Feelings were had locked and put away long ago.
At least i thought so. Until Lucas kissed me. And asked me to stay.
His kisses and his touch. Caused my body to grow hot.
"I need you." Lucas said. Between kisses.
His blue eyes staring into my hazel.
"I never stopped loving you." Lucas proclaimed.
The look on his face softened.
He cupped her face. Kissing her gently.
I knew i could leave right now. But it was the last thing i wanted.
"I love you too." I confessed.
He laid us down in the darkness on the bed in this suite.
And our clothes flew around the room landing on the floor.
As our bodies reconnected in every way. For hours on end.
In the morning. Sun shined brightly. Bodies coated in light sweat.
Brooke awoke slowly. Staring around the suite.
Remembering what had taken place hours earlier.
Her body wrapped in sheets.
"This was not how i expected to wake up. But i don't regret it." Lucas proclaimed.
As he placed a tray of breakfast food in the center of the bed.
The expression on Brooke's face softened.
"When i told you i loved you. That i always would. Years ago." Brooke admitted.
"I meant every word. I meant what i said last night. I never stopped. My pride and conflicted heart. Are one of the main reasons."
"We've been apart." Lucas proclaimed.
"What are you saying?" Brooke asked.
He reached for her hand. And removed the ring she had found and replaced it with the ring he had packed before coming out there.
Brooke felt her heart leap into her throat.
Keith's engagement ring on her hand.
"Brooke Penelope Davis. I made the mistake of letting you slip through my hands twice in our shared past."
"You're the one. My start. Middle. And ending."
"Will you marry me?" Lucas questioned.
"Yes! Lucas. With all my heart i will." Brooke replied.
Lucas pulled her into another kiss.
She kissed him back. The two eventually pulling away.
They ate breakfast. Then cleared the bed.
As Lucas pulled her closer. And Brooke let the sheet covering her body fall.
She felt him lay her down and reconnect their lips.
"Lucas!" Brooke called out. As their bodies reconnected.
The two made love for a few more hours before eventually exiting the hotel suite together hand and hand.
