Chapter1

Setting Brooke and Nathan's house.
Nathan walked into the house after a long day at work. He untied his tie. Threw his keys on the counter. And went threw the mail. He then checked the answerinf machine. And saw that there was 2 messages.
Message 1-"Hey Nate it's me Lucas. Haven't talked to you in a while. Jake and I are going to stop by between 6 and 6:30. Hoping we can hang out and shoot hoops. See you later.
N-"Thanks for the advance warning Lucas."
Message 2-"Hey babe it's me. Just wanted to let you know. I'll be home around 8. Just wanted you to know that. And I can't wait to see you. I love you bye." After the click Nathan smiled and erased the messages.

Nathan ran up the stairs to get changed. Nathan walked into his room. Got a pair of shorts and a t-shirt. And walked into the bathroom to came out 5 minutes later. Put his watch on the dresser. He smiled at the picture on it. It was of him and Brooke taken at their second wedding. Then he heard the doorbell.

When he was half way down the stairs He told them to come in. Then Lucas and Jake walked in.
N-"Hey guys."
L-"Hey are you ready to play some hoops?"
N-"Yeah just need my shoes."
J-"Where's Brooke?'
N-"She's working. But she will be home later."He said with a smile.
L-"You still have that look in your eye little brother."
N-"What look?"
J-"The look of a man very much in love."
N-"Yeah and I hope it never goes away." Nathan put on his shoes and they went outside.

An hour passed by. When Nathan turned to the guys. With the ball on his hip.
N-"So what is new with you guys?'
L-"About the same as always."
J-"The same goes for me. Trying to keep up with a 5 year old. Gets to be hard sometimes."
N-"So when are you two finally gonna pop the question?"
J-"For me it will be soon. I know for sure Haley is the one for me."
N-"That is great Jake." Nathan turned to Lucas.
N-"And what about you. Any marriage proposals yet?"
L-"Peyton and I talked about it. But we still aren't ready for that step yet."
N-"I highly recommend it. For me anyway. Marrying Brooke is the best thing I ever done."
L-"But doesn't it get hard. Juggling marriage and work?"
N-"Yeah it can be. Brooke and I did have dome fights. But it was nothing we couldn't work threw."
J-"So what is next for you Nate?"
N-"I would like to start trying to have kids."
L-"That's great."
N-"Yeah it is. But what if it doesn't happen?"
L-"What do you mean?"
N-"The doctor told us. After her accident. That it might not be possible. For her to get pregnant. And I don't want to get Brooke's hopes up. And seeing the disapointed look on her face if it doesn't happen."
L-"Yeah and they also gave you a 20% chance to live. Both you and Brooke defind the odds Nate. You may be surprised."
N-"I hope she feels the same way."

They went on playing some more. When a car pulled into the driveway. And looked to see Brooke getting out of the car. Wearing her nursing scrubs. Nathan smiled at her. And walked over to her.
N-"Hey babe how was work?" Giving her a small kiss. She returned the kiss.
B-"It was alright. Tiring but fine." Brooke looked over to see Jake and Lucas.
B-"Hey guys How are you?"
L-"Good."
J-"Can't complain."
B-"Well I'll let you guys continue. I'm going to go soak in the tub for a while."
N-"I souldn't be to much longer. I'll start dinner."
B-"Alright." Brooke turned to Lucas and Jake."
B-"See you around boys."
J&L-"See you Brooke."

After Brooke walked into the house. They started playing some more. But after a while the called it a night."
N-"Well i better go check on Brooke. See how she is doing."
L-"Alright man. But let's all get together later in the week. And do something."
N-"Will do." With that Lucas and Jake walked to the car. And Nathan turned and walked back into the house.

Nathan walked into the kitchen and started making dinner. he got a pan out of the cuboard and put some water into it. And put it on the stove. Then went to get another pan out of the cuboard. Then got spegetti and sauce out. He broke the noodles in half and put them in the pan. Then put the sauce into the other pan. He turned around and headed to the freezer. And took out a loaf of garlic bread. Turned the over on.

20 minutes later. And dinner was almost ready. When Brooke walked into the kitchen. To see Nathan standing at the stove. She walked up behind him. And wrapped her arms around his waist.
B-"Have I told you. That you are the most sexiest husband in the world." Nathan smiled and turned around. And wrapped his arms around her waist.
N-"You have mentioned it once or twice since we got married."
B-"Well it's true." Brooke leaned up and pulled his head down. And kissed him. After a few seconds they pulled apart. Brooke looked around.
B-"Need any help?"
N-"Not with the cooking. But if you want. To get plates and silverwear. That it fine.." They pulled apart. Nathan got the strainer our. And dumped the water into the sink. And Brooke get plates and silverwear out. Nathan took the garlic bread out of the oven. And set it on the counter. Brooke walked over with the plates. They dished the food up and sat down at the kitchen table.
N-"Do you want wine or a beer with dinner."
B-"Water is fine."
N-"You sure." Looking at her weird.
B-"Yeah." Nathan got out a beer for him and a bottle of water for Brooke.

Nathan sat down next to Brooke.
N-"So how was work?"
B-"It was busy, I"ll tell you honey. There must have been something in the air 9 months ago. There were 5 babies born. And out of those 5 was a set of twins. Which I was in."
N-"That's good Brooke. I'm glad you found something you love."
B-"I just think it's a miricle. The birth of a child."
N-"I bet it is." They went back to eating.

When they were done with dinner. They both cleaned the table. Bringing dishes over to the sink. Brooke started filling the sink with water and out some dish soap in.
B-"You want to dry it I wash?"
N-"Yeah sounds good."
B-"So how was your day at the dealership?"
N-"Little hectic. Sold 2 cars today. So it wasn't so bad."
B-"Did you lay on the charm?"
N-"Maybe a little. But I can be persuasive at times."
B-"I know that is part of the way I fell for you. Was your charm." Nathan smiled and kissed her cheek.

As they finished up in the kitchen. They turned off the lights and walked into the livingroom. And sat down on the couch to watch t.v. Nathan turned on the news. And put his arm around Brooke. Brooke stretched her legs out on the couch. And turned to snuggle next to him. Both feeling content in each other's arms.
N-"You ever wonder what you life would be like now. If we didn't find our way to each other like we did?"
B-"No . Because I didn't really start living until I was with you."
N-"I feel the same way."
B-"But we have come along way since we first started talking."
N-"Yeah 5 years later. We are still married. And as in love as we were when we first got married."
B-"Nathan I don't regret what has happened with us. I never felt so much love as I have. With my parents. I'm getting to a point where there is no more anger or resentment. I have great friends. And I have a great family with you are your parents. I still can't believe all this happened to me. And it's because of you"
N-"I do feel the same way about you. You made me come alive again. When I was in my deep rut. I think we brought that out in each other."

They sat in scilience for a while watching t.v.
N-"Brooke there is something I want to talk to you about." Brooke turmed quickly towards him.
B-"Are you ok. Are you sick? Because if that is it. I don't want to hear it. Because I couldn't handle anything happening to you." Nathan saw the frighten look in her eyes. And pulled her into his arms. He felt her shaking in his arms. Trying to calm her down. He pulled back and took her face into his hands. Then running a hand threw her hair.
N-"Hey it;'s ok. Nothing is wrong with me. I'm fine."
B-"Oh thank god. But what is it you want to talk to me about?"

Nathan took a breath.
N-"As you know we have been married for 5 years."
B-"5 wonderful years."
N-"Yes 5 wonderful years. But there is somthing I would like to ask you."
B-"Ok now you are scaring me. But go ahead and ask me."
N-"What would you think about us trying for a baby?"

Brooke sat there in shock. Thinking she heard him wrong.
B-"Say that again."
N-"I know this is alot to take in. And you don't have to answear right away. But I've been doing alot of thinking lately about kids. More passificly our kids. And I would like to start at least trying to have kids." Nathan looked at her. She was dumbfounded.
N-"Brooke please talk to me." Brooke looked at Nathan.
B-"I heard you right didn't I?"
N-"Yeah so what do you think. Can we start trying?"

Brooke sat for a minute longer. She wasn't going to tell him this soon. But she saw the look on his face. That broke her heart. And couldn't resist telling him. Taking his face between her hands and smiled.
B-"Nathan honey. There is no need for us to start trying." Nathan's face dropped.
N-"So you don't want to have kids. If it's because of what the doctor said after your accident. Doesn't mean we can't try. And if it doesn't work out for us. We can always adopt." Brooke chuckled a little bit.
B-"Nathan you miss read what I said. I didn't say I didn't want kids. I just meant that we don't have to try." She said with a smile.

It was Nathan froze for a minute.
N-"Brooke what are you saying." Brooke turned his face towards her. Keeping her hands there.
B-"Nathan my love. What I'm saying is. I'm already pregnant." It was Nathan's turned to be shocked.
N-"You are serious. No joke."
B-"No joke babe. I'm pregnant with your child.
N-"How are along are you."
B-"Almost 5 weeks. I started having symtoms for a while. And I wanted to be sure. I was indeed pregnant before I told you. I took a pregnancy test tonight. And that is when the doctor told me I was pregnant."

Nathan pulled her into his lap.
N-"You have just made me the happiest man alive." Brooke leaned down to kiss him.
B-"So you are happy."
N-"Happy doesn't discribe it. Exstatic is more like it."
B-"Well I have an appointment tomorrow. If you want to come with. I would love if you could."
N-"Nothing could keep me away. What will we tell the others."
B-"Nothing yet. I want to make sure everything is alright first."
N-"Then we will keep it to ourselves for the time being."
B-"I love you Nathan Scott."
N-"I love you too Brooke." And they leaned in for a kiss.

Nathan stood up and stuck out a hand.
N-"What do you say about going to bed." Brooke smiled up at her husband. And took his hand.
B-"That sounds good." Nathan pulled her off the couch. Then in a blink of an eye. Nathan swept her up into his arms. Brooke squealed out of shock. But wrapped her arms around his neck. Nathan started walking towards the stairs. Brooke pushed against him.
B-"Nathan put me down."
N-"Nope." Nathan walked into thier bedroom. Closed the door with his foot. Then walked over to the bed. And gently lowered her to the bed. Brooke looked up at him. And reached her arms out to him. To invite him in. Nathan slowly lowered himself down. Nathan looked down at her. Then he leaned down to kiss her. As the kiss drew him on top of her. When Nathan started running kisses down her neck. Brooke whispered into his ear,
B-"Make love to me Nathan." Nathan drew back.
N-"Are you sure it's ok to do this."
B-"Nathan it's ok. The doctor said it was fine. As long as we take it slowly." Nathan cupped her face.
N-"I love you sweetheart."
B-"Dido babe." For the rest of the night. They made love. And then fell asleep in each other's arms.
