Chapter 9
From The Past we Move
"Haley James Scott will you please calm down."
"Brooke I can't! What if I am, then what? Nathan and I are not in a good place right now and this would so complicate everything!" Haley Scott said pacing her bedroom floor while her best friend did her best to keep her calm.
"Okay so if you are you are and if you're not then you're not. I mean yes Nathan does a lot of traveling with the team but he is not going to hate it if you two had another baby."
"I can't have another baby right now."
"Yes you can. Jamie is eight, he's mature and the sweetest kid I know."
"Aside from my little Lucy."
"She's not sweet. Do you know what she had the nerve to tell me yesterday?"
"This I got to hear."
"She walks into the bedroom with her hands on her hips demanding that Luke and I get her a cell phone. She said she deserves one with all the work we make her do."
"Work? What work?"
"She does the dishes now."
"Wow I guess that is work. You two are a couple of slave drivers." Haley said sarcastically.
"You had it easy with the boy. I on the other hand have had my hands full with Lucy."
"Like your husband hasn't been helpful." Haley said nudging Brooke.
Brooke and Lucas had been married for almost two years now. Four years ago things were so up in the air no one really knew how things would go but soon Brooke moved back to Tree Hill to be close to everyone. Months later Luke moved in with her and they became exclusive. Six months after that Brooke clothing line hit the big time and she started a store right in Tree Hill. A year after that they got engaged and then the following year they got married. Now Lucy, Lily and Jamie were eight and the best of friends. Brooke loved being the mother and wife and best friend and wouldn't change her life for the world.
When Haley called her freaking out about a possible pregnancy and showed up with a few boxes of tests Brooke was ready to talk Haley down. Things were slightly strained in the Naley marriage with Nathan on the road a lot with his team and Haley at home with Jamie. She was sure a baby would complicate things for them.
"Will you do one with me?"
"Why-Haley that is just stupid."
"It's not. Okay yes you're not pregnant so it's not like you'll know exactly what I'm going through but it's the principal."
"Haley-"
"Please Brooke."
"Fine" Brooke relented and opened a box and handed it to Haley and she opened one.
Seven minutes later the pair sat on the bed, Brooke holding Haley's hand.
"The timer went off a few minutes ago. You ready to look?"
"No."
"Okay…I'll go look"
"Wait-wait-wait" Haley said rushed and clutching Brooke's hand.
"Haley what's wrong. You-"
"We're separated."
"What?"
"Nathan and I…legally we separated."
"When did this happen?"
"Six months ago."
"Well then who did you…Haley you didn't."
"No. If I am pregnant the baby would be his. When he was here last time for a visit with Jamie we uh…we kind of had a moment and well…"
"So you two are separated and you could be pregnant?"
"Yeah."
"Now I see why you're freaking. Haley why didn't you tell me?"
"Because I didn't want to admit I failed."
"You haven't failed. You two aren't divorced and even if that is what ends up happening you still didn't fail."
"I appreciate the confidence boost but I am still scared that test is positive. A baby is the last thing we need right now."
"BROOKE!"
The girls heard Lucas call out as he came up the stairs.
"Up here" she called back.
When he appeared in the door he saw the look on Haley's face and Brooke's and knew something was up.
"What's wrong?"
"Not much. I may be pregnant with your brothers baby who I am technically separated from."
"Huh?" He said confused and looking to his wife.
"That's what I said."
"Luke will you go look at the test?" Haley asked holding tight to Brooke's hand.
"Uhhhh…okay." He said walking to the bathroom.
"I don't know what I would do without you Tigger."
"Me either. I mean you are a super high maintenance BFF."
"Whatever" Haley said bumping into Brooke."
"WHY ARE THERE TWO!" Lucas yelled from the bathroom.
"Mine is the one on the left" Haley answered, "Brooke's is on the right!"
His head peeked from the door looking confused at his wife.
"And why is my wife taking a pregnancy test without me?"
"Chill Luke, Haley here begged me to do it with her for some strange reason."
"Oookkkaaayyy" he said going back to the bathroom and shaking his head still slightly confused. A few moments went by and they heard nothing.
"WELL" Haley yelled getting impatient.
"Ho…Hold on a second" Lucas said sounding unsure.
"Did you read the box" Brooke asked just wanting him to hurry up.
"I'm r…eading it again."
They waited a few moments and Lucas walked out with a test in hand. Both girls sat on the bed with their hands locked and Haley's eyes screwed shut.
"Well looks like you're pregnant."
"Oh no." Haley said opening her eyes and feeling like someone just punched her in the stomach.
"Not you. You." Lucas said looking at his wife still.
"What", "What " both women say simultaneously looking at Lucas as if he were crazy and then looking at the test.
"How is that-this can't-this has to be Haley's" Brooke said not wanting to believe it herself.
"You said hers was on the left."
"Mine was by the sink and not by the shower." Brooke asked.
"It was by the sink and not the shower" he repeated.
"Well…thank god it's you." Haley chimed in. "I'm good now, I'm going to go back to my house and enjoy my weekend."
Haley bounced out yelling a congratulations as the couple stayed quiet in the bedroom.
"Luke…I…are you sure-give me that" she said snatching the test and storming into the bathroom to find the box and read the directions again. While there she was the digital 'NO' on Haley's.
"I need to take another one" she rushed out as she tore open the other test in the other box, sure the digital one would be accurate. All the while Lucas watched her smiling and laughing. Eventually she'd accept it.
An hour and two more tests later Brooke and Lucas lay cuddled up on the couch downstairs. Lucy would be home any minute to get her stuff for a sleep over at Lily's and they were now just enjoying the moment.
"Definitely not how I planned to find out about having a baby but…I guess it is what it is now." Brooke said as Lucas's fingertips stroked her flat belly and she cuddled into his side and tangled her fingers with his.
"I want a boy" he said kissing her temple lovingly.
"Aren't we getting ahead of ourselves? I still need to make a doctor's appointment to confirm it."
"Come on Brooke it's real, just accept it. I mean now that I think about it you have been extra tired and cranky."
"No morning sickness though. I had plenty of that with Lucy."
"Well I read somewhere every pregnancy is different."
"And where did you read that?"
"Some baby book."
"So you read baby books now?"
"Only when I' bored and walking through the bookstore while you shop with Lucy. I figured it'd be good to know a thing or two for an occasion like this" He smiled rubbing his thumb over her lower abdomen.
"You are just too sweet you know that?"
"Well thank you Pretty Girl. It helps to have the best wife ever."
He turned on the couch to trap her underneath him and began to kiss her neck teasingly.
"Careful Broody, this is what got us into trouble in the first place." She giggle hearing his growl and feeling him nip at the skin on her collarbone.
"Mmmm baby as far as I'm concerned this is all I can think of doing right now. I mean do you know how much of a turn on it is to know you're carrying my baby?"
"Turn on" she arched her brow as his hand raised her shirt.
"Oh yeah" and within seconds he dipped down and began lavishing slow kissed all over her stomach and trailing lower and lower till he reached the top of her jeans and then-"
"MOM, DAD!"
Lucas growled knowing the moment was ruined. Brooke laughed thinking he had the cutes look on his face.
"In here Lu!"
"You, me, bed as soon as she leave" Lucas ordered trapping her chin between his finger.
"Yes sir."
He kissed her once more and a 'Gross' made them pull away.
"Gross. How do you think you got here?" Lucas said lifting from his wife.
"Aunt Rachel said it was because you two were a bunch of hormonal teenagers."
"Remind me to tell your aunt Rachel to shut up."
"Ooo mama you said shut up. I'm telling."
"You'd tell on your own mother?"
"If it benefited me." Lucy shrugged loving the banter between her and her parents. She plopped down between them looking for the remote.
"You hear that Lucas your daughter is such a con artist."
"She gets it from her mother."
Lucy stuck her tongue out at Brooke playfully as Brooke reached for it like she would pull it out.
"God I hope the baby doesn't turn on me like you two."
Lucy turned quickly already having that smile she got from her mother.
"Baby? What baby" she asked bouncing on the couch cushion with her knees now tucked under her.
"The baby your mom is so intent on thinking doesn't exist." Lucas said as he propped his feet up on the coffee table.
"I'm not in denial. I Just don't know if a baby is the best thing for us right now."
"Well it's a little late now don't you think mom?"
"You may be right but I mean I have a new line coming out, your dad has the book tour coming up and you are settling back into school."
Brooke and Lucas hadn't been prouder than when their little girl was selected to be a part of a scholars program over that summer at NYU and having spent the summer there she has just begun to adjust back to the small town life.
"Oh no, here we go, she's going to reason herself till she's blue in the face." Lucy said rolling her eyes.
"Baby if there is a baby there is just going to be one more Scott to love right?"
"Right" she said looking over at her husband and smiling.
"I am so EXCITED!" Lucy said screaming the last part. She had begged her parents for years for a little sister or baby brother but they always said it was the wrong
time. Now it looked like she was going to get her wish.
"Calm down like I told your dad I still need to go to the doctor to confirm."
"Only a formality" Lucas added as he reached for the remote to the TV.
"Well my overnight bag is already packed and Lily is waiting so I'm gonna go now but we are so celebrating tomorrow when I get home." Lucy hopped up and leaned over to kiss her father. "By daddy." Then she bounced over to Brooke, "By mama and by little squirt" she said tapping her mom's belly and skipping from the room. Moments later they heard the front door close signifying the alone time to begin.
"If I could bottle that girls energy I'd be rich."
"Don't worry pretty girl, once junior gets here you'll get some of that energy back."
"Lucas?"
"Yeah babe" he said moving close to her on the couch and allowing her to cuddle into his side.
"We're ready for this right? I mean…I can take off work and slow down but what about your tour?"
"I'll postpone it. By the time I'm supposed to leave you'd be pretty far along or just had the baby and there is no way in hell I'm going to miss out on anything with this baby" he stroked her belly once more getting a giggle and playful slap from her.
"Will you stop, there's nothing there to feel yet."
"But there will be and just knowing that is enough for me."
"Okay."
"You know what I can't wait for?" He tightened his arms on her and she in turn snuggled deeper into him.
"What?"
"To see you all big and pregnant. I can't wait to be able to see you waddling around here glowing and-"
"So you can't wait to see my fat ass complaining about everything?"
"I can handle it."
"Sure you can baby." Not at all convinced. He said that now but wait till she was seven months along and in hell making everyone else's life hell.
"I also can't wait to be able to feel the baby kick."
"I can. Lucy was like a mini soccer player. Between the morning sickness, the back pain and the soccer matches when I wanted to sleep I can defiantly say I am not looking forward to that." She noted the sort of sad broody look he got on his face and decided not to ruin this moment for him. "But what I am looking forward to is the decent rack I'm gonna get. That and the clear skin. I swear I had flawless skin while I was pregnant. Plus I get to eat whatever I want and not feel judged."
"Don't worry baby, whatever it is you want I promise to go get it for you."
"You sure about that? I have a feeling after your third trip to the supermarket at 3 am to get my rocky road ice cream and French fried onions you will be ready to just call it quits."
"No I won't because I'll know that the little things I do for you now will hopefully be remembered when you're ten centimeters and crowning."
"I can assure you that I will try and remember all the sweet things you do for me now when your kid is splitting me in half."
She leaned up and kissed him tenderly but his mind took it to another place when he deepened the kiss. Next she was under him again and loving the feel of his hands on her till then went to roll over and they went crashing to the floor. He simply carried on because for him there was no sign of stopping until she started to giggle and he tried to ignore it at first but when she did it again he pulled back.
"What is so funny."
"I was just thinking about the first time we made love."
"What brought that on?"
"You don't remember how it started?"
"I…uh-"
"Lucas Eugene Scott!"
"I'm kidding baby of course I remember."
Flashback
The summer was in full swing. The streets glittered with the drops of water that fell relentlessly. The full moon they had started the night with was long gone. The light from the furious streaks of light flashed across the city and the rumbling of the thunder outside was forgotten. The night was perfect however the only thing that was on Lucas' mind was the soft pair of lips that were kissing his neck softly. The house was empty for the weekend courtesy of the women's business league thing his mom and Keith had gone to and Brooke had graciously accepted his invitation for a movie night at his house followed by a sleep over he had every intention of exploiting. The boat thing had happened a week ago and since then they hadn't really spent any time together. He was busy with practice or papers, she was busy with the squad or student council stuff so tonight was the first night since then they had spent alone. "Baby you really have to stop doing that." Her teeth clamped down on his earlobe and he hissed. Apparently his halfhearted plea went unheard. Next thing he knew she was straddling him on his mother's couch and he hand a handful of her soft ass, kneading it as she moved her hips in his lap. For a virgin she sure was good at this teasing game. "Luke…" she breathed out moving her hips deeper into his lap and making him hiss once more. "I want you." Tingles shot all over his body as her voice vibrated through his neck she was currently kissing.
He wanted to wait, he really did. He wanted to make her/their first time memorable. He remembers how unspecial his first time was. A year ago he had lost it to some girl at one of Nathan's parties in the pool house and he regretted it because to this day he didn't remember the girls name and she didn't make him feel a tenth of what he felt when he was with Brooke and they had only done minimal stuff to this point.
He had allowed his hormones to take over that night much like he was about to do with Brooke only this time he wanted to make love to her for as long as his body would let him. He moved them so she laid on her back and his body covered hers. Her legs gave him the room to lie between them. Her legs didn't wrap around just yet. She was too busy enjoying the feel of his mouth on her neck. Her hands clung to him; one hand running up his neck to grip his hair and the other running down his back. The feel of her touch made him almost dizzy. Before he remembered where they were he went to roll over and they both went crashing to the ground.
The two erupted into laughter after the loud thud. Brooke luckily landed on top of him and found this very funny. "Guess we got a little carried away huh" he said rubbing the sore spot on the back of his head. "Oh yeah…and I plan to keep getting carried away." Brooke went to kiss him but he stopped her. "Pretty Girl wait-" "Why don't you want me?" "Of course I want you I just…I wanted our first time…your first time to be special." "And it will be because the guy I'm with…" "Yeah?" "I am completely in love with him and I know he feels the same about me." He nodded running his hands down her back. "Lucas why are you so hesitant?" "What do you mean?" He looked at her confused not sure of what she meant. He could see her mind at work with her worrying on that soft looking bottom lip he wanted to kiss again. "I mean this is the second time I've practically thrown myself at you and you rejected me." "I'm not rejecting you Brooke." "Yes you are!" Brooke abruptly got off of him and made some room between them. If she was going to be honest with him she needed to not have him touching her. "Is it because I'm a virgin?" "What?" "The reason you don't want to have sex, is it because I'm inexperienced? I mean I heard Skills talking-" "Whatever you heard come out of his mouth baby ignore it." "I can't. He said some guys hate doing it with virgins because it's not as good as it is with a girl who knows what she's doing." "Baby-" "Is that it? It is it isn't it! You don't want to have sex with me because I won't be able to make you feel good like that slut at the party!" "Brooke-" "Stop it okay. I get it. You don't have to be worried about my feelings because we were friends." "That's not it baby I swear. Okay if I'm honest I was a little shocked when you threw on the breaks the first time and said you were a virgin, but not because of that. Baby I feel so many great things when I'm with you and all we've done is kiss and I can only imagine how phenomenal it will be when we are together like that but you have to know that I just want to make sure that your first time is special; candles, music, dinner the whole nine." "What if I don't want all that stuff? What if all I want is to just be with you?" "Then if that's what you really want then fine." "God Lucas I don't want you to just give in." "Then what do you want because I'm lost" he said exhausted. "I want you to want me. I want you to want me so bad you can't keep your hands off me. I want you to just feel something so strong that the only thing that'll make you happy is to have me and you won't stop until you have." She was near tears again and he could see her pulling away. He knew this was going to happen. She always put up walls when things got too emotional but he was not going to let her force him out. "Brooke-" "I think I better go" she rushed as she dodged his grasp and went to pick up her purse and book it to the door. By the time she got there it was too late. He was right behind her and pushing the door shut and leaning his weight against it. The thunder cracked outside breaking the silence in the room. "Lucas please move I want to go home" she said dejected. She wanted to be as far from him as possible. All she could think about was how he probably had the time of his life with the party girl and how he probably was cringing at the thought of having sex with her. She knew it probably would be awkward but she had hoped he would understand and be loving.
He went to reach for her seeing a tear run from the corner of her eye. She backed away from his grasp and when he went to step towards her again she protested.
Her thoughts however were rendered unimportant when he pressed his body against hers. He kissed her neck and then her shoulder biting only slightly and then she felt it. She could clearly feel how turned on he was. "Lucas-" "I'm not letting you go. I'm not letting you walk away from me and leave me here alone and have you worry that I don't want you because I do. Can't you feel it?" "Yeah I feel something pretty hard in my back right now." She giggled and he backed away slightly not realizing he was even hard. That's what she did to him. One kiss and he'd have to pull away to avoid the embarrassment. "Sorry…no I'm not sorry" he said spinning her around and kissing her with such force her back connected to the wooden door. The sounds of their muffled moans and stolen breaths filled the room along with a few thuds when he pushed her harder against the door. He yanked her to him and up into his arms and carried her back to the living room. He knew she was lying about not caring if this was special but he was going to do his damnedest to give her close to perfect.
The storm raged outside while the two your lovers' passion raged inside. Lucas didn't bother with the couch this time. He had walked back in and placed the thick blanket they kept on the couch and laid it on the ground in front of the fire place. He lit a few tea candles when the power went out and got down to business.
He had Brooke pinned underneath him and moaning every time he ran his hand over her skin. She had parted with her shirt and jeans already and he was still pretty much dressed. He managed to kick off his own jeans and she would rip the t-shirt from him soon enough and when his torso made contact with hers it was like a completed moment. One of those moments where there is no turning back.
Ever so often he rocked his hips between her thighs to give her a taste of what he had in store for her that night and all she could do was wrap her legs around his waist and pray he would stop teasing her. They laid on the floor devouring each others mouths till she pushed things along when she was ready. She was nervous as hell but knew this was the one things she wanted more than anything at that moment. She moved his boxers down slowly but his hand caught her wrist and the kissing stopped abruptly. "Wait-" "No. No more waiting. I want you." "I want you too but I just wanted you to know we can stop whenever you want. No matter how far we get" he reasoned. He said it more so for his convincing than hers'. He needed to remind himself he had to stay in control for her.
She nodded and began pushing his boxers down once again but this time he didn't stop. Once he was fully naked he realized he was ahead of himself. He needed to make her feel every bit as wanted as he knew he did. He lifted off her body and took notice of the look in her eyes as she took him in. This wasn't the first dick she'd ever seen, hell Felix pretty much walked around naked when they were alone to try and entice her when in fact it did just the opposite. Owen had begged for a few hand jobs and she relented but she had never seen Lucas like this. She'd seen him in just basketball shorts, his boxers and even when he went through the boxer brief stage but never totally naked. She was in awe. "What's wrong" he asked and she just looked up into his eyes for the first time and spoke. "I love you." He smiled in return and answered with he loved his Pretty Girl too. He leaned over to grab his wallet from his jeans and got out the condom he thought was in there but it appeared that Nathan had taken it. "Stay right here, I'll be right back" he rushed out and hopped up from his knees and disappeared into his room. He came back moments later and Brooke almost laughed when she saw how eager he was seeing as how he had already opened the condom and was now rolling it on his hardened organ. He dropped back down to his knees in front of her and went straight to pulling her panties down. He threw them over his shoulder and then placed his palms on her bent knees and slowly parted them.
Once she was open to him fully he only took a moment to engrave her in his mind. Having Brooke Davis laying on her back with her legs spread was definitely a picture he wanted to remember forever. He lowered his lips to her stomach first, trailing his kisses lower and lower. He could feel her body trembling beneath him the lower he got to his destination. He wanted to taste her this time. He had been tempted the first time but felt it was a little too much. He had saved it for this time in particular. He wanted to make her cum first before he took her virginity.
The first flick of his tongue sent her body into a frenzy. No one have ever do this to her before. Sure Felix tried to put his hands in her pants and Owen did too but no one ever did what Lucas was doing to her right now. She could feel his lips moving over her as he sucked at her most sensitive bud and then she felt him probe his finger then before slipping it inside. She arched her back involuntarily at the onslaught of pleasure. She was on cloud nine and it didn't seem like they were anywhere near coming down.
Lucas had never been this into eating anyone's pussy. The girl he lost his virginity to didn't get a chance to experience it, his last two girlfriends did but it was only because he felt like he had to when they went down on him. This time he was doing it because he truly wanted to show Brooke how much he desired her and from the moans and pants he could tell she was enjoying it. Moments later he felt her hand grip his hair and her body began to convulse. He kept licking away till her breath eased and her body started to twitch. He slowed down and then just started to slowly kiss his way back up her body. He was still rock hard and turned on so much that he couldn't wait anymore. He towered over her body and resumed his position between her legs, kissing her lips deeply till she opened her eyes. "You ready?" "Yeah" she said a little unsure. She knew it was going to hurt like hell. First she felt him running the head up and down her opening in the most teasing manner but his kisses were with purpose. He was trying to relax her by distracting her with his lips. Slowly she felt him enter her, guiding himself in and stopping when he saw her frown.
It was like being stabbed or sitting on a knife. It didn't help matters that she could almost hear it when he bust her cherry. His lips became more forceful trying to get her attention but her nails digging in let him know the pain was still very much there. He pushed all the way in this time stopping only when he felt her cervix this time. He looked at her face, her brow creasing at the slightest movement. "I'm sorry it hurts so bad baby" he whispered kissing her frowned forehead and kissing down her nose to he finally reached her lips. He noticed she didn't say a word, just held on. They stayed like this for a few minutes till she whispered that it was okay for him to try and move. When he did, even though it was only the smallest of movements her frown deepened and in that moment he hated himself. He knew this wasn't what she had really wanted but in the midst of chastising himself he felt her start to kiss him back. Her hands that where dug into his back loosened and to his surprise her legs wrapped around him to force him to push harder.
After a while time seemed to be irrelevant. The feel of her tightness around him almost made the encounter the shortest he'd ever had but he held on, wanting to make this as good for her as he could. "God Lu…bab….I love " she breathed out only getting out part of her thoughts but him understanding exactly what she meant because that's how he felt. He wanted to be like this with her forever but the building sensation in his lower half had other plans. He knew he was close so to help her along he ran his hand down her body, making sure his strokes were long and deep he began rubbing away at her clit. He needed to feel what it was like for her to cum on his dick and he was determined to make that happened.
Only a few moments passed and he got his wish. Her legs clamped around his waist and her body started to shake under him. She was screaming his name and singing his praise and all he could do was listen and think just how erotic her voice sounded as she came. Seconds into her's his body gave out. To him it was the best nut he had ever had in his life because her tight walls milked everything he had out of him into the condom. He was happy he was smart enough to put it on when he had. He landed in a heap on the floor next to her as she lay there with her eyes closed.
After they both caught their breath and laid there enjoying the feel of the other's body next to the other Lucas looked his right and saw his girlfriend blissfully satisfied. "We are definitely doing that again." He got out as he rolled over to lay over her again, noting the smile that crept on her face. "Wasn't bad huh?" "Not in the slightest. I can say without a doubt the best I ever had." "Had many women?" "A few, but you Brooke Davis" he said leaning down to devour her mouth with his own before he finished, "are the best."
End Flashback
Lucas Scott looked up at his wife brushing her hair from her face. She bit her lip and smiled making him feel almost weak.
"I don't know how we got here but I am so glad we did." Leaning up he kissed her.
"Where is 'here' exactly?"
"Here, this happy place where I have a gorgeous pregnant wife, a beautiful smart daughter, a career I always wanted and a life I never expected to have."
"I guess after some trial and missteps we found our way here in the end."
"People who are meant to be together and all."
"Exactly. Now you were mentioning something about you, me and a bed when our daughter left?"
"You read my mind wife."
He lifter up and carried her to their bedroom where they spent the rest of the night. So many things had happened to beat the happiness out of them but in the end they won. The forever kind of love always does.
So that is the end. Sad kind of but I never meant for it to last too long. So with this first update out of the way I have a surprise. I am envoking a Update/Post Blitz. Sad tears will be updated today along with two posts of new storied I've been working on and few onshots. Enjoy peeps. Simons says review!
