The doctor came in with a clip board in hand and confirmed, "Well, you're definitely pregnant."
At this moment, no words could explain the feeling or things that were racing through her mind.
This can't be happening... no not now. It can't. It just can't… How did this happen? I mean I know how it happened we had sex. This wasn't planned… what am Igonna do…
Her face was just stunned. All she could was grasp her friend's hand and hold on for dear life.
"Hey, it's gonna be ok. I'm here for you." She looked at her friend who looked so frightened by all this. It just wasn't planned at all.
The next day…
Brooke got up and went through her usual morning routine, just in a different place. She was in Rachel's house rather than Peyton's. It's going to be a long day in school, a very long day considering she was going to have to face Lucas at some point but hopefully not.
She got out of the shower wrapped in a towel and walked over to the closet. Brooke contemplated over what to wear, usually she picked out whatever looked hot but today she was a little more thoughtful. She ended up picking out a pair of dark skinny jeans and a blue babydoll top and finished off with a hot pair of Jimmy Choos. As usual her hair was down in beautiful soft curls. Her make-up was pretty light today to bring out her natural tone.
Brooke wasn't really in the mood for breakfast so she just walked out the door with her backpack and headed into her car. Rachel was still in the hospital but coming home tomorrow. It was a little….no it was a LOT awkward alone in Rachel's house. Well she had to get used to it since she was going to live with Rachel from now on.
Haley didn't manage to get much sleep. All night she was stirring and replaying what had happened earlier that night with Brooke. Before she knew it the alarm clock went off and she reached over to turn it off.
Nathan groaned at the sound of the alarm but finally got up after a couple minutes. "Good morning Hales. Did you get enough sleep, you were moving a lot last night." he said ever so sweetly.
"Uh yeah I'm fine. Thanks for asking though," Haley smiled as she gave him a morning peck on the lips. "I'll go make some breakfast, you go take a shower."
"Alright I'll be out in a few." Nathan said groggily.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As she stepped out of her powder blue bug convertible, she took a deep breath. And to Brooke's dismay, the first sight she spotted was Lucas with none other than Peyton.
Lucas wasn't in the best mood. I mean after all, his girlfriend broke up with him last night. He couldn't quite grasp what it was but there was a part of him that felt like there was more to the reason why Brooke broke up with him or why they couldn't work past it. Well actually Brooke never gave him a real reason to why she broke up with him but of course Peyton was involved. But like an idiot, all he did was sit there and listen to everything she had to say then the only thing he could think of saying was "Brooke, I'm sorry."
Lucas's thoughts were interrupted by Peyton's voice.
"So Luke… how are you dealing with the whole break up situation…" Peyton asked nervously.
"Uhm, I'm not quite sure. Maybe it hasn't hit me yet but I keep replaying the scene over and over in my head. And this idiot sign flashes every time 'cause all I said to her was 'Brooke I'm sorry'."
As Lucas and Peyton were discussing about last night's event Brooke quickly brushed past them. She wanted to get as far away from those two as she possibly could.
"Well speaking of the devil." said Peyton as she raised her eyebrows while Lucas was doing his infamous squinting.
"I guess after last night the last thing she wanted to see was us two walking and talking together?" Lucas added questionably.
Everyone was scrambling and chattering by their lockers. But for once, Brooke just wanted to get her things and get to class before any one came up to talk to her.
She was carrying her books and quickly turned around to scurry off to her class but she had bumped into someone causing her to drop her books.
"Brooke! Okay I've been meaning to bump into you," Haley paused realizing what she had just said was kind of coincidental since she had actually bumped into Brooke and caused her to drop her books. "I mean not like that, oh by the way sorry 'bout that here lemme help you."
"It's ok Hales. I got it." said Brooke who didn't really seem like she was all there. She was there in person but not really responding to her surroundings all too well.
They both reached down and picked up Brooke's books.
"So how are you holding up Tigger?"
"Hales you haven't called me that in ages."
"Yeah well you get to call me tutor girl, or tutor wife, or whatever. So I figured I would return the favor by calling you by your old nickname again."
They both giggled at Haley's remark. Their moment was interrupted by Brooke's sudden change of expression as she saw Lucas and Peyton pass by.
"Well let's just say I've had better days." Brooke sighed.
The bell rang and the two girls quickly walked to class together. (Of course Brooke dreading having to walk into class and seeing him.)
As the two girls walked into class the only two empty seats left were the ones next to Lucas and next to Nathan. Naturally Haley walked in and sat next to Nathan but she realized as she sat down that Brooke was left having to sit next to Lucas.
Oh shoot! Haley said to herself. She mouthed an "I'm sorry" to Brooke.
Brooke nodded and reluctantly sat down next to Lucas. She was trying her best to avoid him but so far no luck. Brooke looked straight ahead to the chalkboard hoping that Lucas would get the clue and not stare at her the whole class.
Lucas wasn't sure if he should say something or not, a simple greeting maybe. After all, Brooke never said anything about not being able to be friends… right?
"…Hey" Lucas said hoping to get a response.
Brooke winced at the voice of the broody blonde. She only responded with a cold glare. And if looks could kill Brooke Davis is the one to do it.
"Okay Brooke I know we're broken up and everything but I don't know why your giving me the cold shoulder when you're the one who broke up with me." whispered Lucas.
Brooke simply scoffed at his words. The teacher glared at the two telling them to be quiet.
Class was over and Brooke just wanted to get out as quickly as possible. She tried to grab her books fast and get out but ended up dropping a couple things. "Damn it!" she mumbled.
Lucas noticed that Brooke had dropped her things and bent down to pick up her things, "Here lemme get that for you."
"It's fine I got it," Brooke said uneasily
They both got down and grabbed the book at the same time sending shivers down both their backs. Lucas and Brooke looked up interlocking their eyes lost in each other's gaze. The feelings were still the same, they still had the chemistry between them and nothing could break it apart. Of course Brooke didn't want to admit it anymore because she was trying to move on. But so far, she wasn't really moving anywhere. It was like trying to pull yourself out of quicksand. The more you struggle and try to escape, the more you get pulled in. In this case, Brooke's heart was stuck in Lucas Scott's hands.
Brooke suddenly realized what she was doing and quickly snapped out of it. She grabbed her books and sort of stumbled out of the class room leaving Lucas kneeled on the ground and sighing.
Haley and Nathan soon approached Lucas giving him the infamous "Naley look."
"What the hell are you two giving me that look for?" said Lucas as he stood up.
"Oh I think you know why," the coupled said in unison then smiling at each other.
"Okay, A I have no idea what you two love birds are talking about and B Brooke broke up with me last night." commented Lucas who had a confused look on his face.
"We know Luke. It's just really weird seeing you two like this and not all love dovey like you usually are. I think you should try to work things out you know. I mean, unless you don't want her back?" Haley patted her best friend's shoulder while he was lost deep in thoughts.
"No Hales I do want her back it's just, I don't know if she wants me back you know? I mean she said she felt like she was in the relationship more for me than for her. And I'm constantly with Peyton so she feels like she's always second best. I know she loves me, and I love her too… so much. I'm in love with her and then suddenly everything ended just like that. And all I had left to say to her was "I'm sorry", how pathetic am I?"
"Pretty pathetic bro," Nathan chipped in. "Well anyways, do what you gotta do, just show her how much you want her back and that you'd rather be alone than be without her. But I wouldn't be surprised if you and Peyton started to have a little something going on."
"Nathan!" exclaimed Haley. "What?!" Nathan said 'innocently'.
"God what is it with you people! Peyton and I are just friends. How many times do I have to repeat myself?" Lucas told the happily married couple.
Haley and Nathan both looked at Lucas straight in the eyes. Nathan spoke, "Until you start acting like it. You know Luke, actions speak louder than words." And with that, Naley walked out of the classroom together leaving Lucas stunned and frustrated.
