Chapter Two: Crush Crush Crush

I got a lot to say to you-
Yeah, I got a lot to say,
I noticed your eyes are always glued to me
Keepin' em here and it makes no sense at all

They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies
They taped over your mouth
Scribbled out the truth with their lies
Your little spies

- Paramore Crush Crush Crush

Peyton bursted into the waiting room, she noticed her friends were already there. Rachel was crying in the corner while Haley was in Nathan's lap quietly sobbing on his chest, Lucas was with Karen talking to a doctor. She was pissed off at Lucas, she knew before the accident Lucas had kissed Brooke but the important thing right now was that she needed to be there for her friend, she took a seat next to Haley and Nathan. They all looked at each other secretly blaming one another for what had happened, Haley was furious at Rachel. "Why weren't you with her?"

"Because I was inside the school and I can't watch Brooke twenty-four/seven she's a big girl!" Rachel fought back. "Why are you blaming me when we all knows who fault it really is?! Lucas and Peyton!"

"What?" Peyton knew exactly what Rachel was talking about. "I didn't expect her to pull something like this, I mean she's Brooke I thought she would get mad at me beat me up a couple of times and then get over it not run a couple of red lights and end up in the hospital." Peyton said this tearfully remembering how her mother died.

"You can't blame Peyton!" Lucas looked at Rachel sternly.

"So blame me?" Rachel snapped at Lucas, she was getting so furious at the conversation they were happening. "At least I was there for her unlike you four who are suppose to be her so-called-friends! Lucas you hurt her more than anyone I've ever know, Peyton you constantly chase Lucas and don't care how you're hurting Brooke. Haley you dump Brooke after Lucas does because you can't choose between the two!"

"That is not true," Haley shouted, holding her three months pregnant stomach. "I love Brooke just as much as I love Lucas."

"Could have fooled me!" Rachel crossed her arms. "And you all know I am right! How pathetic is it that me being Brooke's former enemy is now her best friend because her real friends dumped her. All this arguing is pointless because at the end of the day you don't stay awake lying next to her comforting when she is crying at night, or when she locks herself in the bathroom and does who knows what! So before you point a finger at me take a good look at your damn selves!"

Rachel walked away from them and towards a doctor, they all looked at each other with a guilty looks on their faces as they just attacked Rachel for being such and bad friend when they were actually the causes for Brooke actions. Rachel came back to the group, "The doctor said she fine except for a few broken bones and a concussion but beside that we can go see her."

"That's great!" Haley said getting up.

"But here's the thing the only people she wants to see is me and Karen," Rachel explained shrugging her shoulders knowing that she was clearly right about everything she had just said. "Lets go Karen."

Karen followed Rachel into Brooke's room, she was on the hospital bed and she looked like a wreck. Her head was bandage up around the forehead, she had a cast on her leg and a bandage wrapped around her wrist beside that she was covered in cuts and dark bruises. Karen walked over to Brooke with tears rolling down her eyes, she took a hold of Brooke's hand and kissed it, "How are you holding up?"

"I am doing okay now," Brooke said weakly. "I just wanted to say thank you, for you know saving my life, I'll probably be dead if it weren't for you. So thanks."

"Don't worry about it," Karen always consider Brooke as the daughter she never had. "Be careful next time, please Brooke, we can't lose you here in Tree Hill. We'd no longer have any entertainment." She joked.

Brooke let out small laugh, she looked over to her red haired friend who had some tears rolling down her eyes, "Karen can I speak to Rachel alone?"

Karen nodded and walked out the room closing the door behind her, Rachel slowly walked over to Brooke. She began thinking back to what Haley said, 'Why weren't you with her?'. Rachel continued walking to Brooke, "I am so sorry Brooke, I should've been with you!"

"It's okay Rachel," Brooke smiled at how worried Rachel was. "When the truck hit me you know what I saw? It like what they said, you see your life flash before your eyes. I saw all the hurtful things that happened to me over the last eighteen years of my life and I actually wished I died in the accident, so that way I wouldn't have to be hurt anymore. Rachel what's wrong with me? I am like a bomb waiting to explode and I haven't yet! I am scared of myself Rachel, this shouldn't be happening, not to me."

Rachel noticed the tears rolling off from Brooke's cheek onto the hospital bed, "I don't know Brooke, but you can only take so much you know what I mean. Some people are like bombs Brooke, it takes so much until their like tick, tick, tick, BOOM!"

Brooke laughed at Rachel's 'BOOM', Rachel realize how she sounded when saying it and laughed also. "Who else is here?"

"Haley, Nathan, Peyton, Lucas."

"Lucas!" Brooke scoffed. "It's his fault that I am here right now."

"What do you mean?"

"He kissed me," Brooke explained to Rachel. "All these emotions of hurt and anger and grief and sadness began flowing through me so I just drove off and I wasn't paying attention to what I was doing so then the truck came and the last thing I remember are these flashing white lights."

"Oh," those were the only words Rachel could get out before there was a knock at the door, it was Lucas. "Speak of the devil, do you want me to handle this?"

"No," Brooke simply said. "Can you leave us alone for a minute?"

Rachel nodded her head and walked out the room while rolling her eyes at Lucas, "I take it that she's not a big fan of mines at the moment. How are you?"

"Fine no thanks to you," Brooke tried to move up on the bed, she began grunting and Lucas quickly came to her side. He helped her a little and looked into her hazel eyes, Brooke couldn't resist his blue eyes but she had to. 'He is so cute though. No Brooke be strong!' "I don't need your help!"

"Brooke I'm sorry," Lucas said sincerely. "I am sorry for kissing you, but don't think I didn't mean it because I did. I love you Brooke."

"Damn it Luke!" Brooke shouted. "Why do you do this to me every damn time! I can't love you Lucas because you choose Peyton, you choose her over me so please go be with her because your hurting me right now and you don't even see it." She said wiping the tears from her eyes still looking into Lucas blue eyes.

"How am I hurting you Brooke," Lucas said defensively. "I do love you but you keep pushing me away, I don't love Peyton! You're the only---"

"One for me."

Lucas and Brooke turned their heads to the door, Peyton was standing there, she was crying a bit. Lucas walked over to her trying to comfort her but she shrugged him off, "You and me are through!" Peyton walked over to Brooke leaving Lucas standing by himself.

"Lucas I think you need to leave." Brooke didn't really want him to leave but she knew it was what she had to do.

Lucas nodded his head and and left through the door, Peyton looked down at Brooke wiping her tears on her sleeves. "How are you holding up?"

"I'm good," Brooke said. "How about you P. Sawyer?"

"You just called me P. Sawyer," Peyton smiled a bit. "I miss you so much Brooke, I am so sorry for letting Lucas come between us but it not going to happen anymore because he loves you now and I know that now."

"But I am not going to let him in this time."

"What? Why?" Peyton asked a bit confused.

"Look Peyton he tells every girl he dates the same crap over and over again," Brooke slid her head down into her pillow. "He told me how he was the one for me and then he feeds you the same crap! Not this time, he took my heart and he ripped it into pieces to many times and this time he's going to feel hurt."

One week after the accident Brooke was back at Rachel's house laying on the bed, Rachel had gone out to get groceries and magazines for Brooke. She heard the door downstairs swing open then shut, Rachel was back already? She left fifteen mintues ago, Brooke figured she stepped into the supermarket and freaked out then ran back out. "Rachel you down there? I take it that grocery shopping didn't go so well!" Brooke laughed a little, a frown came on her face as she realized who it was. "Lucas what are you doing her? I don't want to see you right now."

"Sorry but the project," Lucas was lying but figured Brooke would buy it. "I'll leave if you want me to but--"

"Come in," Brooke gave in, she moved over a little on the bed making space for Lucas. "So what do you want to know so far? The basics?"

"Well there's a list."

"Well begin reading it then?" Brooke said rather rudely, she didn't know why but she felt he deserved it.

"Okay," Lucas looked over the first question. "What are you afraid of?"

Brooke waited a while before answering the question, "Getting hurt again, I don't want to be hurt again because I am afraid I might do something I will regret not that already haven't but whatever. What are you afraid of?"

"Becoming my father," Lucas answered. "I don't want to hurt anyone the way he did to my mom and Deb, I don't want to end up being mad at the world for the rest of my life because things didn't go my way."

"It's a little to late for that," Brooke whispered at Lucas looked at her confused. "Next question please?"

"What is one thing that you regret?"

"Meeting you," Brooke couldn't believe she just said that, she saw the expression on Lucas face. He obviously looked hurt and she wanted to take it back but she knew she couldn't, she didn't regret meeting him though. Meeting Lucas Scott was the best thing that ever happened to her, what she really regretted was the pain he caused her. "I didn't mean that Lucas--"

"I think you did," Lucas got up and walked towards the door. "I don't regret meeting you Brooke because whether you believe or not I love you. And I am---"

"The guy for me?" Brooke decide to finish the sentence.

"I'm going to prove it Brooke," Lucas walked up to Brooke and kissed her, what was different about this kiss was Brooke didn't pull away, she actually pulled him foward. They kissed for about ten seconds then Lucas pulled back, "I love you Brooke and I know you love me."

"I don't know what I want anymore Lucas," Brooke shook her head. "I think you need to go, because I don't know how to trust you anymore when your lies just keep coming and coming. Why would you tell Peyton that she was the only one for you and now tell me the exact same thing?!"

"This is what I am talking about, you keep pushing me away Brooke!"

"ANSWER THE DAMN QUESTION!" Brooke yelled as Lucas stayed quiet. "That's right because you don't have an answer, Lucas leave now please."

"Brooke--"

"NOW!"

Lucas turned around and left the room, she heard the door open then close. She felt her warm tears run down her eyes and slowly roll off her cheek, Brooke grabbed her clutches and went to the bathroom. She closed the door firmly locking it, she struggled as she made her way to the sink, she tried to open the file cabinet but it was to hard for her. Once she finally got it open she got the razor blade, Brooke hated doing this to herself but it was her only way of dealing with the pain. She sat on the sink so she could keep her balance, she pressed the blade against her skin making a slash in her old cut, it hurt like hell. It didn't hurt like this last time, their was a lot of blood spewing onto the floor.

"Brookie!" She heard Rachel yell her name from downstairs, she slid onto the floor and crawled her way to the door. She unlocked it and Rachel swung the door open, she saw Brooke bleeding and the blood on the floor. "Brooke what happened?"

"I was trying to use the bathroom but I tripped over my clutches and hit my arms against something and it opened my old wound." Brooke lied.

"Come on we're going to take you back to the hospital!"

"NO!" Brooke hated the hospital, because they would ask her a trillion questions on what happened. "I mean just get me a bandage and I'll be find, I really just need to rest."

Rachel nodded her head as she went into the file cabinet grabbing a box of bandages, Brooke lied on the floor, she got away with it. But how long was it until someone figured it out?
