CHAPTER FORTY ONE:
Jake was over at Brooke's and they were in the kitchen while Brooke was cooking dinner for the family, it was a cold miserable winters night, the winter felt colder than ever. So she decided to cook a nice hearty dinner.
They were chatting away when Jake decided to drop a bomb shell on Brooke.
"I won't be staying the night"
"Oh, why not?" Brooke asked
"I am going to the snow with Rick in the morning"
"For how long?"
"Just for the week, I will be back on Sunday night"
Brooke hadn't been to the snow since she was in her late teens and though it would have been nice to be asked to go with them, just like last time he went to the snow Brooke thought she had clearly stressed how she would have liked to have been asked to go, but as it always was with Jake it was all about him.
Brooke was not over the moon with the sudden plans, but she didn't want to start complaining even if she was invited to go she would not have been able to organise the children with such short notice, so there was no point in bringing it up.
Things were going so well with her and Jake, she hadn't heard from Monica in three weeks and Jake hadn't either. She felt no news was good news.
"That should be a lot of fun, I've heard it's a boomer of a season with lots of snow"
"Yeah that's what I heard, that's why we are going tomorrow. It's a bit slow at the recycling yard so I thought I would take advantage of that and head to the snow" Jake said
They had a nice dinner and Brooke felt like a family, just the four of them at the dinner table laughing and talking about school with Lauren and Dillon, Brooke was starting to think that Jake was really enjoying spending some time with her and the kids.
Jake left shortly after dinner and so Brooke and the kids watched a little bit of television before heading of to bed, Brooke decided to go to bed early that night and read her book in bed as it was too cold to be sitting up in the loungeroom.
