LUCAS: Come on, Brooke, you never called me back.
BROOKE: Now you know how I feel. Listen, I know it’s been difficult for you lately, losing Keith and your heart condition and giving up basketball. I feel like I’ve been keeping you close to me to try to protect you from those things, like I’m hanging onto the two of us for you, but not for me.
LUCAS: I’m sorry I kissed Peyton. I should have told you.
BROOKE: It’s not about that, Luke. It’s not. I mean, I thought that it was, but this is not about her. This is about me. I love you, Lucas. And I probably always will. But we go days without having a meaningful conversation, and I used to miss you so much when that happened. But it never seemed like you missed me. And I guess because of it, I stopped missing you.
