Brooklyn's POV

I picked up the phone and dialed lukes number.

it rang 4 times until he answered.

"Brooke?"

"hey luke can you meet me under the bridge."

it wasn't East Bridge.
it was more of a tunnel I guess.
you could walk there, it wasn't that far from my house.
it was just away from people, it was one of those places where you could have the deepest conversations and know the other person is listening.

"okay.. meet you there in 10?"

"okay."
then I hung up.

I put on a red flannel and headed down the stairs.

"hey im just gonna go meet luke around the block."

I couldn't tell my mom that I was going under the bridge , she would never let me go. she doesn't trust me so of course she wouldn't.

"are you sure? you want me to drive you."

"mom...."

"okay."

and just like that I was out.

-15 mins later-

I made it to under the bridge and I wasn't surprised to see luke there.

"I've been waiting.."

I laugh, "that sounds really creepy luke."

he laughs, "can't blame me for trying."

his damn smile when he said that, ugh. I love him.

"so what why'd you wanna meet... I mean especially here."

I examined the tunnel and walked around a little bit.

"because why not... we use to always come here when we were younger and tell stories and stuff, I felt it was appropriate."

"ha, you're right. god I miss those days."

"yeah... luke you called me so many times while I was in the hospital and you knew I wouldn't pick up... why?"

it took luke a second to think about how he was going to answer.

"Brooke... I knew you wouldn't answer. in fact I was certain you wouldn't answer.. i was alone knowing you wouldn't remember me so i had to call you.. I had to do something to express my feelings for you brooklyn.. I know it has taken me so long to figure this out but i love you and when the stars are all aligned in the night there is a pattern and everytime I see that it reminds me off you.. you are a pattern , different yet exciting each time... that is what fascinates me the most about you."

what luke had just said to me I had to think about.

"you fascinate me just as much.. maybe a little more.."

we were still around walking around the tunnel when luke walks closer to me.

our lips almost meeting

"are you sure about that.."

and just with those words luke pulled me close putting his hands on my hips pulling me into a deep kiss. and with the taste of his lips on mine it was as nothing mattered in the world anymore.

the only thing I could think about was us.

here and now.

everything that happened in the past is over.

I had luke in my arms.
and through all of the utter crap that I have been through, I think I at least deserve this.

and then he let go of me smiling and me smiling back.

"i love you brooklyn.
forever and always."

"i love you too luke."
staring deep into his blue eyes like the ocean, steady and calm but with waves, and when a storm would come he would be strong to fight back.

and I got all that
just from looking into his eyes.

he was the light in the dark sky.
when the sun rises in the misty morning.
he is the rain after a storm.
he is the beat to my heart.
he is the love of my life.

and I know that here.
and I know that now.

and for the first time in my entire life, I finally believe someone actually loves me when I couldn't even love myself.

I'm still not sure I do love myself.
but I know one thing for sure,
that I have someone I can trust now.

"i have to go... but it was nice seeing you, call me soon. okay?"

i smiled with tears in my eye.
but this time they were good tears.
they were a sign I was actually happy for once.

"okay."

and just like that luke left.

but he never really did leave.

he has always been there.

i see that now.

finally I see that.
