Hey guys thanks for the reviews...!!


As Peyton pulled up outside her school she was attracting a few people's attention as she pulled Hannah from her child seat strapped her into the pushchair. Peyton threw her bag over her shoulder and grasped the handles of the pushchair and pushed Hannah into school. She had called coach Durham and he had spoken to the head, who had agreed that Peyton could bring her niece to school. Peyton plastered a smile on her face and pushed the doors open to the hallway that she walked down every morning where no one noticed her, but this time every set of eyes were on her, and Hannah. They seemed to focus on Hannah, then her, and then to Hannah again, after which followed a shocked look. Peyton continued to brave it and walked to her locker; she pulled a few books from her locker and put them in her bag.

"Hey Peyton." She heard someone say from behind her, she turned and Hayley stood smiling at her.

"Oh, hi." Peyton's tone was emotionless as she spoke to her. She was still upset about Hayley going to see Lucas yesterday. She figured that as he wasn't a bad guy she could forgive her, but she wasn't about to do that before Hayley realised that what she had done had hurt her.

"Peyton," Hayley sighed, oblivious to that fact that Peyton had brought her daughter to school. "I'm sorry that I went to see Lucas last night, but just so you know all he did was ask about you, I think that's the only reason he asked me over." Hayley smiled lightly. Peyton wasn't sure why, but hearing this made her heart beat twice its normal speed. Peyton then realised that she knew why her body was acting this way, if Lucas had told Hayley what had really happened that night, Hayley could tell him the reasoning behind it. "Oh my god," Hayley whispered.

"What?" Peyton asked sounding just as shocked.

"You've brought Hannah to school with you, are you crazy? What if Lucas sees her? He's not stupid Peyton, he knows you were pregnant, and that baby looks just like the two of you." Although Hayley didn't know that Lucas didn't know that she was pregnant.

"I'm telling people she's my niece." Peyton said as she grabbed the handlebar of the pushchair and went to walk off. Hayley grabbed her arm and walked along side her. "Hayley please don't tell anyone, I just wanna go to school. Brooke couldn't look after her today, her tutor had asked her in for a few hours."

"Have you thought this through? We have cheerleading practice today. You know, with the basketball team, the same one that Lucas is on."

"I know Hayley, but what could I do? Skip school? Leave her alone? I don't enough money for a babysitter. I had no other choice." Peyton said feeling deflated. Hayley smiled and took the pushchair from Peyton.

"Look, you go get changed, I'll take Hannah and speak to coach Durham, see if he can get someone to watch her during practice." Peyton thanked her and headed in the opposite direction from Hayley as she went to get changed.

She was worried that if Lucas would see Hannah that he'd know she looked a little too familiar to be Peyton's niece. She sighed and walked into the locker room to get changed, once she had changed into her cheer uniform she heard the door shut. Hayley walked in looking pleased with herself. "I am a genius." She said bouncing over to Peyton. "Coach Durham said he'd take her to practice."

"What?" Peyton asked shocked. "Hayley, Lucas will still see her." Peyton ran into the gym to see her squad and the basketball team all staring at something. She slowly walked over to where they were all gathered and peered at what they were looking at, her daughter, her Hannah. She gasped turning a few heads, including Lucas'. She avoiding his eye contact and pushed her way through to Hannah. Coach Durham was sat next to her holding her hand in his.
