Chapter 4
Lucas' POV
It is now Thursday and it's the day of Peyton's ultrasound. We decided to take the day off of school. I'm really excited to see my baby and hear its heartbeat. Peyton is excited too but I can tell she is scared to be a mom in high school. The only people that know she is pregnant are Brooke and my mom. I am wrapped up in all of my thoughts and Peyton comes up to me.
"Baby i think after the ultrasound you should tell Nathan that he's about to be an uncle. I want to have some girl time so i'll tell Haley that her best friend is going to be a dad."
"That is a good idea. I don't want to keep it from all the people that matter to us. Speaking of people that matter, have you talked to your dad?"
"No but he should be home in a couple weeks and i'll tell him then."
"Sounds good. Well it's 1:30 now and the appointment is at 2:15 so we should get ready and leave by 1:45. okay?"
"Alright. I'm going to get dressed and do something with my hair. "
Peyton went in the bathroom and straightened her hair. I went in my room and put some jeans on and a nice shirt. It was 1:45 and Peyton was ready on time for once.
"Ready to go?" I said
"yeah, lets go see our baby."
I smiled and took her hand and we went to the car. I opened the car door for her and went to the drivers side and started driving to the doctors office. Peyton grabbed my hand when we pulled in the parking lot. I put the car in park and turned the car off.
" babe, you okay?"
"yeah, i'm really nervous. Do you really think i'm gonna be a good mom?"
"Peyton, please stop having doubts. Our baby is going to have the best mom. I will always be here for you and that baby. I will never abandon you guys. "
"Thank you, Luke. I love you."
"i love you too. "
I took her hand and we walked into the doctors office and went to the front desk.
"Name, please." the nurse said
"Peyton Sawyer" Peyton said.
"Alright, it says here you are a new patient so you need to fill out all of these forms and bring them back up when you're done."
"Alright, thank you."
Peyton took the clipboard and went to find a seat. I followed her and sat down next to her. There was about 5 papers she had to fill out. It took about 5 minutes to fill them out and she took them to the front desk. She handed them to the nurse and she started looking at all of them.
"Looks like everything looks good, have a seat and we will call you back in a few minutes."
We went back to where we were sitting and we just talked about random stuff.
"Do you want a boy or girl?" Peyton asked me.
"I would love a boy that i could teach how to play basketball, but i would love to have a girl that is as beautiful as her mom"
She smiled then kissed me and a nurse came out to the waiting room.
"Peyton Sawyer"
Peyton took a deep breathe and we both stood up and walked towards the door hand in hand.
"Alright, a doctor will be in to examine you in a few minutes so just have a seat on the table. "
"alright thank you."
Peyton hopped on the table and 5 minutes later the doctor came in.
"Hi Peyton, i'm Dr. Fitz and i'll be your OB throughout your pregnancy," she looked at me "You must be the father"
"I am." I said.
"Nice to meet you both," the doctor said. "Today we will be taking some blood to make sure you are healthy and to confirm the pregnancy."
"Alright, thank you."
"A phlebotomist will be in to take your blood."
She smiled at both of us and walked out of the room.
"Luke, I really want this baby. I couldn't imagine not having this baby in my life."
"Me too. We will be great parents"
The phlebotomist walked in and shook me and Peyton's hands.
"I'm Dr. Shepherd and i'll be taking your blood this afternoon."
"Alright, i'm scared of needles so can we get this over with"
"Sure,"
I took her hand as the doctor cleaned her arm and stuck the needle in. She took 2 tubes of blood and put gauze and a bandaid on Peyton's arm.
"We will have the results in about 20 minutes. So just sit tight."
She took Peyton's blood and walked out the room. Peyton took out her phone and started playing on it. I started watching netflix on my tablet. The 20 minutes flew by and Dr. Fitz knocked and walked in.
"Congratulations Peyton and Lucas, the test came back that your about a month pregnant."
I smiled and Peyton kissed me.
"Can we have an ultrasound today or not today?" Peyton asked.
"Yes, you can. I know how eager parents get to see their baby for the first time," Dr. Fitz said. "We will have our ultrasound tech come in as soon as she can."
Dr. Fitz walked out the door and closed it.
"Luke, we're going to be parents."
"I know Peyton. I couldn't be happier. I love you."
"I love you too.
The ultrasound tech came in and put the ultrasound mechine next to Peyton. She asked Peyton to lift her shirt and she put some gel on her stomach and started taking the ultrasound. She turned the screen towards us and froze the image. A couple minutes later we heard the heartbeat and me and Peyton both teared up. She printed off a couple pictures and handed them to us. She wiped the gel off her stomach.
"Looks like the doctor signed everything and you're all set to go. Congratulations you too." she said as she left the room.
"Peyton, that's our miracle. " I kissed her.
"I couldn't be happier that this is actually happening" She kissed me again.
We walked out of the doctors office and to the car.
"Do you want me to drop you off at the cafe so you can tell Haley?" i asked her
"Yeah,"
"alright, i texted Nathan while we were at the doctor's office and he's going to meet me at the river court."
We pulled up to my mom's cafe and Peyton opened her door.
"I'll have Haley take me to your house after we're done talking." Peyton said.
"Okay, i'll see you later. I love you."
She walked up to the cafe and i started driving to the river court. It wasnt very far from my mom's cafe. I pulled up to the river court and Nathan was already there. I turned my car off and walked up to the court.
"Hey man" Nathan said as he passed me the ball
"Hey."
We started shooting around. About an hour later, we took a seat on the bleachers.
"So Nate, i need to tell you something"
"What's up? everything okay?"
"So Peyton and I went the doctors today. Peyton is a month pregnant. You're going to be an uncle. "
"That's awesome, man. Congratulations" He said and hugged me.
"Thank you. I"m overwhelmed and happy at the same time. I'm pretty nervous about becoming a dad in high school"
"You'll be a fantastic father, Luke.
We stood up and started playing an one on one game. We got tired a half hour later and decided to go back to my place.
