Morning already?
Who: Lucas and Brooke, CLOSED
Where: 303C
When: Sunday Morning
What: Waking up, hungover
Warnings: None so far.

Brooke opened her eyes, and instantly regretted it. It was so bright and her eyes hurt so much.

She winced and buried her head in the pillow. It felt weird, warm and ... solid.

And it was moving - rising and falling. She ran her hand along it, not wanting to risk opening her eyes again.

Okay, not a pillow, a person.

It came rushing back to her - wine and hanging out with Lucas and more wine...

She lifted her head a little, glancing down at his chest. He still had his tshirt on. And she was wearing all of her clothes. So... nothing had happened.

Phew. That would have been awkward.

God, her head hurt.

She lowered it to his chest again, moving was way too much effort right now. And this ... this actually felt kinda nice.

She winced when he groaned, it sounded really loud against her head.

She was going to work up the ability to speak to him when she felt him shift a little, and then the blanket being draped across her. His arms wrapped around her and made her feel all snug and safe and ... perfect.

This was an amazing way to wake up, even with the pounding in her head.

She snuggled up to him more, a smile spreading across her face. Mmm, he was so warm.

	He felt her snuggle up against him and he smiled, glad that he was warming her up. He opened his eyes and looked down at her. She looked really cute all snuggled up against him. He rubbed his nose against the top of her head and closed his eyes again. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He was so sweet, warming her up and being so affectionate. She loved that about him. Her eyes flew open. She what? Oh, no. Oh no, no, no. She was not going down that road again. She was over him, that was just a momentary lapse or something. Maybe she was still a little drunk? Yeah, that was it. So why was she so scared? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	He thought he saw her eyelids move. "Brooke, you awake?" he asked as softly as he could, not wanting to disturb her if she wasn't. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She panicked for a second, and then remembered the hangover. Perfect cover. "I think so," she mumbled. "Is there someone standing on my head?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"Aw, bad hangover?" he asked. He ran his hand over her forehead. "How about I make you some coffee?" he asked. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She nodded slightly, not wanting to move her head too much. His fingers against her forehead did feel nice, kinda soothing. Part of her didn't want him to move, nice as coffee sounded. But maybe moving would be a good thing. "Sounds good," she mumbled. She took a deep breath before she lifted her head, moving away from him and flopping down onto the bed.

He slid out of the bed and walked to the kitchen to make her some coffee.

He got her some aspirin and and water too and cut up some fruit in case she was hungry.

He grabbed a tray and put everything on it, walking back into the bedroom.

He set the tray on the bed. "Here, some aspirin for your head," he said, handing her the tablets and water.

"How are you feeling?"

She opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling. She couldn't really be in love with Lucas again.

Though even she knew 'again' wasn't exactly the right word. He was the first person she'd loved and she knew she'd always love him in some way.

But she'd spent three years telling herself that she wasn't still crazy about him, that she could be okay without him. And one morning wasn't enough to make her forget all of that, right?.

He came back in with a tray of food and coffee and aspirin.

"Wow," she said, sitting up. "This is amazing, thanks, Luke."

"Little better," she said, smiling at him.

She sighed inwardly.

Yes, it totally was.

"You're welcome," he said, smiling warmly at her.

"That's good, I"m glad," he said. He reached out and brushed her hair behind her ear, smiling softly.

He moved his hand back and grabbed his coffee, taking a sip.

"I should probably take a shower, I must smell gross," he said.

He set the coffee on the locker beside his bed. "I'll be right out," he said, heading to the bathroom.

She looked up at him when he hwen he brushed her hair behind her ear. Oh, God she was totally in love with him.

She was so screwed.

"Okay," she said. He left and she groaned, letting her head all back against the headboard.

"Ow," she said, wincing. She reached for the aspirin and took two, gulping down all of the water and biting into a slice of fruit.

What the hell was she supposed to do now?

	He took a quick shower and stepped out, grabbing a towel. He wrapped it around his waist and walked back into the bedroom. "Sorry, I didn't bring any new clothes in," he said. He looked at her and grinned. "Since I'm your life sized Ken doll, you wanna pick out what I should wear?" he asked, hoping he might cheer her up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Oh, God. He was standing in front of her, all naked and wet and so hot.

She should act like everything was normal. Which meant dressing him.

"Sure," she said, crawling out of the bed and heading to his closet. At least that meant she couldn't see him and his incredible arms.

She pulled out the nicest pair of jeans and a shirt, and turned around, holding them up. "These," she said, somehow managing to smile at him.

"Um, I should go shower too," she said.

	He smiled at her. "Thanks. You have great taste," he said. "Okay sure," he said. "There's towels and shampoo in there. It's my shampoo so you'll end up smelling like me, I hope you don't mind," he said, smiling warmly at her. He pulled the shirt on and started to button it up. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	She bit her lip. "Actually I think I'll just go back to my place," she said. "I need to get clothes anyway." She headed for the door before he dropped the towel or something. "I'll call back down later," she said. "See ya." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	luke_scott3 2009-11-16 07:17 pm UTC (link)
	"Okay, sure," he said. He watched her go, hoping that she was alright. He got dressed and dressed his bed. He grabbed the tray and started to clean the dishes. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Brooke had hoped a shower and clean clothes would help her think straight again.

It didn't really. Though she did feel fresher, and the aspirin had helped with her headache.

But still, not coming back down to see him would be suspicious, especially when they'd planned to spend the day together. And she did want to spend time with him.

She opened the door to his apartment.

"Hey," she said.

	"Hey," he said, smiling at her. "Whoa, you look great." "So, you want some proper breakfast? I was going to make my favorite breakfast, french toast. I can make you something else, if you'd prefer." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	b_cheery 2009-11-17 01:09 am UTC (link)
	She grinned. "Then I look better than I feel," she said. "Mm, sounds good," she said. "You want help?" she offered. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	luke_scott3 2009-11-17 01:28 am UTC (link)
	He gave her a sympathetic look. "Anything I can do to help make you feel better?" he asked. "Nah, it's cool. Take a seat, breakfast will be ready soon." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"You've been a big help already," she said. "Okay," she said, taking a seat at the table. "It's been a while since I was that drunk," she said, shaking her head. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"Well let me know if there's anything else I can do for you."

"I know, me either," he said, glad he hadn't made a move on her when he was drunk, like last time. She didn't feel that way about him anymore and he loved being friends with her. He didn't want to mess that up.

He made the french toast and set a plate in front of her.

"Dig in," he said, taking a bit. He groaned. "So good," he said with his mouth full.

	"I really owe you for this," she told him. She took a bite of the french toast and licked her lips. "Mm, this is really good," she said. "I owe you big." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	"It's nothing," he said, smiling at her. "So, after breakfast we'll head to the park?" he asked, taking another bite of his french toast. "We can even build a snow fort there if you like, with a tunnel." (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

It didn't feel like nothing. Every little thing he was doing for her was reminding her how incredibly sweet he was.

It was going to be so hard to shake this. But she had to shake this.

"Yes," she said.

He mentioned a snow fort with a tunnel and she paused. Oh, God, Peyton. That would do it. Just thinking about Peyton should be enough to convince her that falling for Lucas again would be a bad idea.

She smiled softly. "Yeah, maybe," she said, nodding slightly.
