Mrs. Lucas Scott

Chapter 1

The church bells were ringing and all of Tree Hill was gathered to wish the

happy couple wedded bliss.

Brooke had never been so happy, she felt like a fairy tale princess.

Her best friend Peyton stood by her side, holding a bouquet of white calla lillies, a

huge grin on her face. Lucas held the hand of his new bride clasped near his heart.

He turned to Brooke and leaned towards her placing a tender kiss upon her

upturned lips. Brooke put her hand behind his head and kissed him back

with utter abandon.

It was only a month ago that they had stood at this same church for Lucas's brother

Nathan's wedding, and Brooke had told Lucas that she was pregnant with his

baby. Of course Peyton in the end had decided to be happy for Brooke…how

could she not?...

Lucas helped Brooke into the waiting black limo and shut the door.

"I love you Mrs. Lucas Scott," he said wrapping his arm around her and kissed her

softly.

Brooke giggled a little and said " I love you too Mr. Brooke Davis"

Chapter 2

5 months later

Brooke held her stomach in wonder at the life that stirred inside her, it was an

amazing sensation the baby kicking and rolling inside of her. It never ceased

to amaze her as it grew over the months, at first a tiny bubbly--almost butterfly

like sensation to strong kicks, a tight curling ball against her flesh that had now

grown tight. It's tiny hands and feet stretching and making an outline that she

could stare at for hours.

"Luke! Come here," Brooke called excitedly to husband, "feel" she said placing

hstrong hand on the bottom of her stomach "I think that's his butt!!" She said

laughing.

Lucas laughed, "yes, it does feel very round--he's really low isn't he? How much longer

did Dr. Reinhart say we had at our last visit? "

"2 1/2 months at most, Oh!!" Brooke suddenly cried and reached to clutch

her swollen stomach, at the same time Lucas felt the baby shift down heavily.

"Are you okay?" Lucas asked, his blue eyes clouded with concern, his voice trying

to not sound too panicked.

"I think the baby dropped, that's all " Brooke said unconvincingly, trying to be brave

and hide the pain in her voice. A sudden claw was raking down, pressing hard in her

lower abdomen, waves of pain overtaking her.

"It could be those braxton-hicks things, right?" Lucas asked sounding somewhat hopeful

"Hmmm--" Brooke couldn't respond the pressure just kept getting worse, she couldn't fight

The waves of agony much longer, she just wanted to surrender, close her eyes…..

Fainting was preferable.
