OTH

It was the next day, the day Kaitlyn could go home with Brooke. Peyton hadn't changed, she still layed there, just like a sleeping angel. Brooke walked into Kaitlyn's room where she was waiting. Haley was sitting beside her. Neither said nothing. Haley had told Kaitlyn about her mother. Brooke just took Kaitlyn's hand, thanked Haley, and led her out to the car. At first Kaitlyn was hesitent about getting in a car, but got in anyways. Brooke drove to her house where she had a room prepared for Kaitlyn. Brooke takes the little girl up to her bedroom and put all her clothes away. Unsure when Peyton was going to wake up.

Kaitlyn pulled a worn out teddy bear out. The last thing Haley had packed. Kaitlyn hugged it and let a tear fall. That's Peyton's old teddy bear. Brooke pulled the little girl in for a hug. She smoothed the long blonde pigtails out with her hand. "Everything's gonna be alright,"Brooke said calming the little girl. She had never thought of how Kaitlyn felt. She took care of her mother and then Haley. Now Kaitlyn was about to lose another parent. Brooke hoped she would not end up like Peyton, motherless. "Can we go see mommy tomorrow?"Kaitlyn asked. "Yea but she's still sleeping,"Brooke replied. "Will she know that I'm there?"the litle girl questioned,"can she hear me." "Yea, she'll hear every word her little girl says,"Brooke reasured her.

"Can I also play with my friend?"Kaitlyn kept asking questions. "And which friend would that be?"Brooke said with curiosity. "Emily,"she replied,"Emily Keller." Brooke nodded her head yes. Then it hit her. Keller. As in Chris Keller. Wait a second Chris would not have a kid. "They just moved here,"Kaitlyn continued,"her dad's a musician, he's gonna teach me how to play the keyboard, just like Aunt Haley, he said he knew her and he could teach me to sing like her and maybe we could sing the stars song like Aunt Haley and he did."

Brooke's head was swirling, taking in all that Kaitlyn had just said. Chris Keller, singing, music, Emily Keller. Brooke could smell trouble. Once Haley and Nathan found out about Chris they'd go balistic. Peyton wouldn't like it either. "Can I Auntie Brookie pleeeeaaassse,"Kaitlyn begged Brooke, still holding on to her teddy bear. "Fine,"Brooke finally gave in. She couldn't say no to a face like that. Exspecialy when her mother was dying and her father was dead. At least she would have her friend. Even if it was Chris Keller the second.

That night after Brooke had tucked Kaitlyn in her bed and Haley had called to let her know about Peyton, she sat looking at an old photo album. The one from her senior year of high school. On the first page there was one of her and Peyton at some kind of party, the second page Lucas had decorated. It had a picture of him and her. The page was bordered with the two words Pretty Girl. Brooke quickly turned to the next page. She didn't want to brake down crying. Lucas was dead and she just had to exept that. One the third page it had pictures from Haley and Nathan's wedding, with the border Naley: Always and Forever.

The rest of the book was just pictures from events like graduation and parties. Brooke put that book down and opened another one. This one was two years after senior year. Only some pictures of her and Lucas as friends and Nathan and Haley. This one Brooke had been determind to fill with pictures of Kaitlyn's first year of life. It had pictures with Karen and Kaitlyn and Larry and the baby girl. Some were of Lucas, Peyton, and Kaitlyn.

Brooke finally got bored of looking at the pictures so she went to go check on Kaitlyn. She was sleeping with only the gentle beat of her breaths. Beside her laid that old teddy bear. Brooke went back downstairs again and flipped through the channels on the t.v. Nothing. She decided to finally go to bed.

The next morning

Kaitlyn was down in the kitchen when Brooke had finally woken up. "Hey babe,"Brooke said to the little girl that was eating a bowl of corn flakes,"how did you pour cereal without making a mess?" "I had to learn how to get my own food after my dad died and my mom stayed in her room,"Kaitlyn explained to Brooke. "Wow,"Brooke whispered under her breath. "Can we go vivst Emily now, Please?"Kaitlyn made a puppy dog face. The one Brooke couldn't say no to. "Sure,"Brooke couldn't believe she just said that. "Good because I already called and told to meet us in the park,"Kaitlyn smiled the the famous Scott smile.

the hospital

Haley sat beside Peyton's bed. Peyton has been in a coma for three days and Haley was sure she was never come out of it. She couldn't stand to see Kaitlyn left parentless. Losing two people she really loved.

Limbo

Peyton was surrounded by a bright light. Suddenly she found herself in a large white room. Pure white. She saw movement. "Lucas?"she asked. "Yea Peyt,"Lucas said as he walked towards her. "Where am I,"Peyton asked worried,"am I...?" "Dead?"Lucas finished,"no, you're in limbo." "What's...?"Peyton began to question. "Limbo?"Lucas again finished her sentance,"it's this place between life and death, a place where you go if your mind can't decide where it wants to go, half of it's saying you want to stay down on Earth with all the people that you love, with our daughter."

"But the other half is saying you want to give it up,"Lucas continued,"you'd rather have death than deal with that drama down there." "But then why are you here?"Peyton hardly understood what Lucas had just said. I mean here she is with her dead husband. Unbelievable. "I was sent here to convince you to stay down on Earth,"he replied,"Peyton when your mom died how did you feel?" "Horrible, like everyone was just abandoning me,"Peyton hesitently replied. "Well how do you think Kaitlyn would feel?"Lucas continued asking her. "But I could be with you Luke,"Peyton said. "But Kaitlyn would lose her mother just like you did,"Lucas said. Silence followed, Peyton was thinking. Lucas started fading away. "Looks like you made up your mind Peyt,"Lucas said smiling that famous Scott smile,"I love you." "I love you too,"Peyton told him for the last time,"Lucas."

Hospital

Nathan came into Peyton's hospital room. He sat beside Haley on the vacant chair. He layed his hand on Haley's and gently squeezed it. "She's gonna be alright Hales,"he asured her. But even he didn't know if that was true.

Tree Hill Park

Brooke walked up to the park with Kaitlyn's hand in hers. Kaitlyn let go of her hand and ran up to a little girl. "Emily,"Kaitlyn screamed gleefully. Brooke looked at the little girl. She had red light brown hair, but it was brown enough, and blue eyes. Not eyes like Lucas's. Not the famous Scott eyes. But eyes like the unfamous Chris Keller. Brooke looked up and sure enough there was that same guy standing right beside Emily and Kaitlyn.

Please, again, review. I could also use suggestions for baby first and middle names for both girls and boys. Sorry if this is a short chapter. But they are going to be this short or maybe a little bit longer from now on but this will allow me to get at least a new chapter or two out in a week.
