Chapter 4
I was talking to Lucas like nothing happened because I didn't want to think about the whole amnesia thingy. Like I could remember him and my mum, but to not remember my best friend there has got to be something wrong there, even if she didn't come and see me everyday like Lucas and my mum did. Lucas was still holding my hand like he did every time he came up, I feel so safe in his arms and I don't know why maybe it's because were dating and he says that he'll protecting me from now on.
"Lucas can I talk to you about something please?" I asked
"Yeah of course baby, anything for you" I smiled and so did Lucas
"Well it might be nothing, but I keep having these weird flashbacks about Nathan" Brooke stopped for a minute and looked at Lucas "I think it was the day before the accident happened. I was coming out of a gym with two girls, but I don't know who they are and I'm walking to my car and I see Nathan kissing some girl I don't recognize, but I know it's not Haley. He then see's me and I get into my car and go to back out, but someone blocks me in and then Nathan pushes the girl away and gets in his car and drives off. It's weird right, but I have these flash backs/visions whatever their called every day and it started when Nathan came to see me with Haley when I first woke up. I know it sounds crazy and everything, but it must mean something right?" I explained
"Baby I know you want to remember things so badly, but Nathan would never cheat on Haley they have been together for like 2 years now. He loves her and wouldn't do anything to hurt her or to jeopardise their relationship" Lucas replied
"Yeah it might be nothing, I dunno. It just seemed so real because I felt the car hit my car and everything. It just felt so real" I took my hand out of Lucas's hands and placed them on the blanket. I felt so dame stupid right now.
The doors opened and I turned my head to the door to see Haley and Nathan walk in.
"Hey best friend" Haley bellowed as she waved. Ever since I woke up and forgot who Haley was she has been reminding me every time she comes to see me. And I always think 'It's not like I'm gonna forget again', but hey whatever floats her boat right?
"Hey Haley, Nathan" I responded
"Lucas I need to talk to you for a minute" Nathan nodded to Lucas
"Okay shoot" Lucas nodded back
"I mean in" Nathan gave Lucas the look "private" he finished
Lucas got up and Haley filled his place "I'll be back in 10 minutes baby, you want anything?"
"Nah I'm good thanks "I replied"
"Okay" And with that Lucas left the room with Nathan
Xxxxxx
Lucas stopped down the corridor and turned to Nathan who stopped with him. Nathan looked scared and worried. Lucas knew that look. Nathan had done something bad and he knows he wanted to get it of his chest. Nathan looked up at Lucas and then looked back down.
"What's up man?" Lucas asked
"I've done something bad dude, really really bad" Nathan began to panic.
"Okay, it can't be that bad man" Lucas tried to settle the situation and conversation at the same time
"It is dude and when I tell you, you gotta promise that you won't tell Haley" Nathan told Lucas
"Okay I won't tell Haley. What is it man?" Lucas looked worried now too.
"She knows, she saw us together" Nathan was now pacing "That's why I couldn't be in the room when she was admitted to hospital Lucas. She knows, but I don't think she remembers which may be a bonus, but I didn't want the accident to happen. You have to believe me Lucas. Please believe me" Nathan rambled
"Nathan calm down, what are you talking about" Lucas was confused "Who knows? Who got admitted to hos-"Lucas stopped and looked at Nathan "Wait Brooke, you're talking about Brooke aren't you? What does Brooke know? Nathan speak, Nathan tell me"
Nathan didn't know if it was such a good idea to tell Lucas now. He was scared how he would react to it "Erm... never mind. It doesn't matter now" Nathan went to walk around Lucas, but Lucas grabbed him by the arm.
"Tell me now Nathan because it does matter when it concerns Brooke" Lucas stated
"Fine I'll tell you" Nathan turned back to Lucas "The day before the accident; Brooke was walking out of the gym with Kayliee and Regan towards her car. I think Haley had gone home by this time because it was like an hour after school. Anyway Brooke saw me with Peyton in the car park doing a bit of tongue wrestling and I saw her so I pushed Peyton away and Brooke sort of got into her car and went to drive off, but someone blocked her way, so instead of confronting her I went to see Haley straight away while Brooke argued with the driver of the other car" Nathan explained
"You were cheating on Haley with Peyton as in Peyton Sawyer?" Lucas was so shocked "Why would you cheat n Haley? You guys have been dating for so long; it's been like 2 years Nathan"
"I know and the worst part of it is-"Lucas interrupted Nathan
"There's a worst part?"
"Yeah, I'm still seeing Peyton" Nathan admitted "We have a connection that we both don't want to break"
"What about you and Haley huh? What happens to that?" Lucas asked
"I dunno, I love Haley with all my heart, but I like Peyton as well" Nathan replied "Can't I just have them both?"
"No you dame well can't dude, that is being selfish" Lucas looked so mad now "You have to choose, Haley or Peyton and you have to do it fast because before you and Haley walked in, Brooke had just told me that she had been getting flash backs of that day and she saw you kissing Peyton"
"What if she tells Haley? OMG man, this is so fricking hard" Nathan sat down in the seat
"I don't know if she will, but she might and yeah I know man, but you have to choose and do it by the end of the day" Lucas sat next to Nathan
"I will Luke, I will" Nathan promised
Xxxxxx
I needed to talk to Haley so bad, but I didn't want to say anything just in case Lucas was right and it was nothing. Haley was sitting in the chair next to my bed boasting about Nathan and how lovely he is and how sweet he can be. My head was throbbing and all I could think about were the visions/ flashbacks I kept getting. I need to tell Haley and I need to do it now, while the guys were talking outside. I turned to Haley and she looked up at me. Her baby blue eyes sparkled with happiness and I knew what I was about to tell her would make the sparkle fad away and dread take its place.
"Haley I need to tell you something and I'm sorry" I saw the worry wash over Haley's face. I wanted to stop, but it was too late I already opened my mouth.
"Okay, what's up Brookie?" Haley smiled, but I could see the fakeness behind it.
"I have been getting these visions/flashbacks whatever you want to call them" Haley nodded to let me know she was listening "Well in the visions/flashbacks I'm walking out of the school gym I think and I'm heading for my car, but then I see Nathan kissing some girl and I'm sure it wasn't you. He then looked at me Haley. I'm sorry Hales. I needed to tell you because you deserve to know, but it could all be in my head right. I might have just imagined it and it might not have happened" I explained to Haley "I'm so sorry"
"What did he do after he saw you?" Haley chocked out, she had tears rolling down her eyes and I think she knows what I'm talking about or what day I'm talking about at least.
"Erm... in my flashback he got into his car and drove out the car park. I don't know where he was going" Brooke remembered.
"He was going to my house. He turned up at my house out of the blue and kissed me. When I asked him where he had been he said at the gym" Haley wiped the tears away from her eyes and looked away from me.
"Haley, I'm so sorry. Maybe I shouldn't have told you" I felt so bad. Haley walked over to the window. I moved the covers from my bed and tried to get up, but it hurt too much. I screamed in pain.
"What the hell do you think you are doing?" Haley ran around the bed and put me back in the bed "You can't get up Brooke, so don't try. I'll be okay. I promise"
"You sure. Come here, give me a hug" Haley hugged Brooke and then sat in the chair next to the bed again.
"I love you Brooke" Haley whispered
"I love you too" I whispered back
Xxxxxx
Nathan and Lucas walked into the room as Haley was hugging me. Lucas walked over to the bed and sat in his usual place. Next to my bed. Haley didn't know what she was going to do. She actually looked kinda confused to me. Nathan didn't say a word and neither did Lucas.
"Hey baby" Lucas kissed me lightly on the lips.
"Hey" I kissed him back "So what were you guys talking about?"
"Nothing really, just about guy stuff. You know the usual" Nathan answered. Haley looked at him and she knew he was lying straight away
"Liar" Haley whispered to start with "You're a liar"
"Haley what you talking about? That's what we were talking about" Nathan responded
"You're lying to me, just like you lied then" Haley had tears in her eyes and I knew she was about to cry.
"Haley what are you talking about. Honey I haven't lied to you" Nathan sounded like he was trying to convince himself and not Haley "Promise"
"Don't do that?" Haley back away from Nathan "Just don't"
"Do what Haley? You're not making any sense" Nathan was confused or was he?
"I have to go. Brookie, I'll come see you again tomorrow and I'll text you later. Love you, but I really need to get out of here" Haley hugged Brooke then went to walk out of the room.
"Wait, I'll come with you?"
"No you won't" Haley snarled
"But how you gonna get home. I drove us here remember?" Nathan tried to outsmart Haley
"I'll get a cab Nathan" Haley smirked then left the room
Once Haley had gone, Nathan turned to me and glared "What did you do?"
"Nothing, she was okay when we were just here" I answered
"Then why is she acting like I done something wrong?" Nathan questioned
"I dunno, maybe because you have or did" I replied not saying anything about what Haley knows.
"Well then I'm going to go and find out what is wrong with her" Nathan stated "See ya man" he done his hand shake thingy with Lucas and then left.
"Bye then" Brooke said sarcastically
When Nathan left Lucas turned to me and looked at me funny "You told her didn't you?"
"Maybe" I looked cute at the minute, but I didn't care
"Brooke, what did you do that for?" Lucas huffed
"I had to, she is my bestfriend and I had no choice, but to tell her what I saw" I replied.
"I know Brooke, I understand all this, but his my best friend and brother and I had to defend him and I know I shouldn't because it's bad what his done" Lucas's look went from disappointed to blank
WAIT one minute. Did he just say brother? Lucas and Nathan are brothers and no one thought to tell me. Hello I've lost my memory remember. I don't know things like that.
"Nathan is your brother.
Your brother and you didn't think to tell me that?" I sounded hurt a little.
"Brooke I thought you knew" Lucas responded
"Well I didn't" Brooke looked away from Lucas "In case you have forgotten I lost my memory"
"I haven't forgotten Brooke. I'm sorry I should have reminded you" Lucas apologised
"Yeah whatever" I huffed "Anyway back to what we was talking about. Haley doesn't deserve this, you and I both know it" I moved my hand from under his and turned my body to face the wall "I want you to go now. I want to be alone"
"Brooke please. I was just hel-"I interrupted Lucas
"Just go. I need to rest"
"Fine I'll go, but I'll be back" Lucas grabbed his coat and left the room leaving me wrapped up in my blankets.
Xxxxxx
When the cab pulled up outside Haley's house she saw Nathan sitting on the front porch waiting for her. Haley paid the cab driver and got out the cab. She walked up her lawn and pulled out her keys. Nathan stood up and walked over to her. Haley just looked at him with nothing, but blankness on her face. She wasn't angry anymore, or maybe she was, but she wasn't showing it. She walked pass Nathan and to her door. She had a tear stained face and said nothing. She put the key into the door and turned it. The door opened she stepped inside, she turned to Nathan.
"Bye" was all Haley said
"No wait please" Nathan begged
"I'm tired Nathan. I need to sleep. I haven't got the strength to do this right now" Haley replied "Please just leave me alone"
Haley went to shut the door, but Nathan stopped her "Please just listen to me"
"NO go now" Haley shut the door and ran to her room. This time Nathan left and went home.
