Thanks for all the reviews! I really appreciate them! I hope you enjoy chapter 3! Oh and one quick question. Should Jeyton find out they are pregnant too? Thanks! R&R!

Peyton awoke in the middle of the night to a thunderstorm. She hated thunderstorms, they freaked her out. Jake lied sleeping beside her and Peyton gently shook him to wake him up. She would feel better in his arms.

"...Jake." She whispered a few times until his eyelids fluttered open. "Peyton." He answered smiling. She always brought a smile to his face. "I'm scared..." She whispered on the verge of tears as Jake opened his arms for her, holding her close as she placed her ear close to his heart.

His heartbeat was slow and steady as he stroked her back. "It's okay...I'm here..." He whispered in her ear and she nodded. She slowly started to drift off to sleep before they heard a small cry coming from the bed beside them.

"Mama! Mama!" Jenny cried. Peyton reluctantly crawled out of Jake's arms and picked up the baby girl, who was now crying. "It must have been the thunder" Peyton thought as she crawled back into bed with Jake, now having Jenny by her side.

And it stopped raining. Peyton smiled to herself as she remembered the first time this happened.

"Anyway go to bed, we'll talk about this in the morning. I'll crash on the floor."

"Jake. Don't be stupid."

He lied down beside her and almost simultaneously, the rain stopped.

"Sounds like it finally stopped raining."

"...Maybe it finally did."

And they all slept together, as the Jagielski family.

Back in Tree Hill, Brooke was having trouble sleeping. She had booked the abortion for tomorrow, with Lucas's consent of course. But the image that was burning in her mind was when she told him. She knew he was trying so hard not to let his real emotions show. She knew he didn't want this. But she felt she didn't have a choice.

She remembered when she told him last night,

She was lying on her bed when Lucas knocked on her room door. Brooke sighed miserably. "Hi." She said.

"Hi Brooke." Lucas answered walking towards her bed.

"How you feeling?" He asked.

"Horrible." He nodded.

"Brooke, I'm sorry." Brooke raised an eyebrow.

"For what?" She asked.

"For saying you can't do what you wanna do. If you're not ready to have this baby, then neither am I. But whatever you decide to do, I'll stand by you. No matter what."

Brooke nodded. "Thank you, Lucas." She said hugging him.

"No problem pretty girl." He answered.

Brooke nodded again.

"Then, I want an abortion."

Lucas's eyes were filled with hurt and betrayal. But all he could say was,

"Okay."

Now it was never going to be the same. They would always carry this around with them. And she knew how badly Lucas wanted it, and she knew how badly she didn't. Or maybe she was scared. But she was not going to become a Nikki to Lucas.

The next day, Brooke drove to the clinic by herself. Not bothering to tell Lucas. It would just make things harder.

She waited what seemed like an eternity until her name was called. She followed the doctor into a small room that was mostly white.

"Hello, I'm doctor McKnight. Your Miss. Davis right?" Brooke nodded. "And how old are you?" Brooke paused and hung her head down in shame. "Seventeen." The doctor nodded.

"Now, Miss. Davis, why exactly do you want to go through with this?" "This guy asks a lot of questions..." She thought to herself before she answered.

"All my life, I never had a mother. Well, I did...but she was never there. Never really in my life. The most words we spoke were "Hi" or "Bye." Nothing else. We never really had a conversation, same with my dad. And I guess...I just don't want my baby to end up like that. I can't be my mom to my child. Plus, I still want to have a life! I want to go out, drink, and other stuff teens do."

The doctor nodded. "Have you really thought this over? You can never reverse it, or take it back. Once it's done...it's done."

Brooke shook her head. "No...no I guess I haven't." Brooke stood up from her chair and shook hands with the doctor. "Thanks...but I can't do it." He smiled.

Brooke sped walked to Lucas's house were she eagerly tapped on the door. "Brooke." Lucas said. "Hi Luke...I..." She started but Lucas interrupted. "Brooke, I lied. I want this baby so bad. And I know what I said before but please..."

"I already went to the clinic." Brooke stated. She saw Lucas's face fall and that's when she noticed his red eyes. He had been crying. And he looked like he was about to again right now. "No...no..." He said. Brooke nodded.

Lucas started crying as a silent tear rolled down his cheek. "...And I couldn't do it." Brooke added and Lucas lifted his head up, smiling joyfully. He hugged her tightly. "I love you Brooke Davis." Brooke smiled. "I love you too, Broody."
