''Hey Brooke, how you feeling.'' Haley asked as she sat in Brooke's hospital room.
''Okay, I guess, I'm just scared encase Nick turns up.'' Brooke confessed.
''Don't worry about him Brooke, I'll not let him near you, and neither will Jake or Luke.'' Nathan said. ''Do you want to see photos of the kids.'' Nathan asked changing the subject.
Brooke nodded as Nathan reached into his back pocket for the photos of all the kids that were in his wallet. He handed her a picture. ''That's Jenny, her and Emily are best friends.'' Nathan said before handing her another photo. ''This is our son Jamie and his rabbit Chester.'' Nathan said pointing to him and Haley.
''He looks a lot like Luke.'' Brooke said.
''Once there was a piece in the paper that said Lucas Scott and his brother's wife have a secret child.'' Haley said. ''But the things he does tells you he belongs to Nate.'' Haley told her.
Brooke handed the photo back to Nathan as Nathan added another photo to her. ''Here is '' Nathan said before getting interrupted.
''Emily.'' Brooke answered for him. ''She looks so much different than when I last seen her.'' Brooke said.
''She's a mini Brooke Davis.'' Nathan told her. ''Here is one of Dylan and Cole.'' Nathan said handing her the second a picture.
''Is Dylan the one in the black with his arms around Cole.'' Brooke asked.
''Good guess.'' A voice said by the door.
''Luke, did you tell the kids.'' Nathan asked.
''Yeah, although before I could say I found mommy, Emily took a tantrum and started shouting at me.'' Lucas said. ''But everything is sorted. Has Doug been back in yet.'' Lucas asked taking a seat beside Haley.
''No not yet. Haley did go out and talk to him not long before you came.'' Nathan said.
''He said that he wanted to run one more test before letting her go home.'' Haley said.
''Did he say what the test was for.'' Brooke asked.
''A pregnancy test and if it is all clear he can give you the morning after pill if you want it.'' Haley told her.

''Aunt Peyton when is mommy and daddy coming home.'' Emily asked Peyton as she sat up beside him.
''They will be home when the doctor says that mommy can come home.'' Peyton told her.
''Why did daddy say no to having a welcome home party.'' Emily asked.
''Mommy isn't ready that just yet, daddy will bring her home then she can meet you and the boys. And maybe tomorrow she can meet your nanny Tori and grandpa Richard.'' Peyton said.
''Okay, can I go play in the play room with Jenny.'' Emily asked Peyton.
''Go on, uncle Jake and I will tell you when your mommy and daddy get here.'' Peyton told her.
Emily jumped down from the couch and ran off to play with Jenny and Jamie and her brothers.

Doug Ross came into the room and saw the 4 adults talking. ''Good news for you Brooke.'' He said.
''What's that.'' Brooke asked.
''You can go home. Your test results came back and you're not pregnant. If you want I can also give you the morning after pill.'' Doug told her.
''Please.'' Brooke said.
Doug left the room and went to get Brooke the pill. ''You ready to go home.'' Lucas asked.
''I'm scared, I don't want to get hurt.'' Brooke told them.
''Haley and I are going to wait outside.'' Nathan told Lucas as they both left the house.
''Brooke no one is going to hurt you again. Nick will not becoming near the house, the house is covered in security it always is always has been since we moved in to the house 4 years ago.'' Lucas told her taking a seat beside her on the bed.
''Can you promise me that you won't leave me.'' Brooke asked him.
''I won't leave you unless it is for work, I have an album to finish so I will be at Peyt's studio and I started a new show called Clarence so I have to travel into Charleston every morning for that starting next week, and the boys have movie premieres starting in a few days.'' Lucas said. ''But if at any time you want to come with us just say and you can, but you will never be home alone, you'll have Nathan, Jake, Peyton and Hales.'' Lucas finished telling her as Doug came back in.
''Here you go Brooke just take this pill and sign these discharge papers and you can be on your way.'' Doug told her as he handed her the pill. ''How are the boys and Emily doing.'' Doug asked Lucas.
''They are doing great. They can't wait for their mommy to come home.'' Lucas said looking at Brooke and smiling.
''Then you should be getting her out of here. Nathan and Haley are waiting outside, would you like a blanket or something to keep Brooke covered as you leave there is paparazzi out there.'' Doug asked.
''Do you want covered or do you want to just walk out with Nathan and I.'' Lucas asked.
''Just walk out, you will be by my side right.'' Brooke asked.
''Always.'' Lucas told her. ''No thanks Doug we won't be needing the blanket.'' Lucas told the Dr.
''Ok. I'll see you in here when it's time for your check ups.'' Doug said. ''Nice meeting you Brooke.'' He said before leaving the room.
''You ready pretty girl.'' Lucas asked as Brooke came back out of the bathroom.
''Yeah.'' Brooke said. Lucas held his hand out for her to take.
They walked out hand in hand and saw Nathan and Haley waiting there for them. ''You guys ready to go.'' They asked as they stood up.
''Yeah, we are.'' Lucas said. Nathan walked on the other side of Brooke holding Haley's hand as they stepped out of the hospital.
''Lucas Scott, over here.'' Someone shouted.
Lucas let go of Brooke's hand and put his arm around her shoulders, Nathan put his free hand on her back while holding Haley's hand tighter.
''Haley Scott, over here.'' They shouted once more.
They both reached their cars, Nathan and Haley got in one car while Lucas and Brooke got in the other.

''Peyton, Jake, we are home.'' Nathan called through the house as they walked in.
''Brooke.'' Peyton said coming into the hall and seeing Brooke. She brought her into a hug. ''I've missed you .'' She said.
''I've missed you too or Jagielski which everyone you are now.'' Brooke said pulling out of the hug.
''Where's Emily and the boys.'' Lucas asked.
''Play room. I'll send Jake in to get Jenny and Jamie out for you.'' Peyton said after Jake came out to the hall.
''Go get Jenny and Jamie and bring them into the family room.'' Peyton asked Jake.
''Nice to see you again Brooke.' Jake said before going and doing what Peyton told him.
''Don't worry Brooke the kids will love you.'' Peyton said.
Jake came back out with Jenny and Jamie. ''The play room is all yours.'' Jake said.

''Emily, Dylan, Cole come sit here beside me.'' Lucas asked as he walked into the playroom and sat on the couch.
''Hi daddy.'' Emily said running over and hugging Lucas.
''Excuse me, where is my kiss.'' Lucas asked Emily when she pulled away and sat on the couch beside him.
''Sorry daddy.'' Emily said with a giggle and kissed his cheek.
Dylan and Cole sat beside him and hugged him. ''Where did you go daddy.'' Cole asked.
''I had to go get something.'' Lucas said standing up from the couch and going to the door and pulling Brooke in who had been standing there watching the exchanges between Lucas and the kids. ''I had to get mommy from the hospital.'' He told them.
Cole and Dylan climbed of the couch and walked over to Brooke. ''Did you hate me and Cole.'' Dylan asked.
''Is that why you left because you didn't love us.'' Cole asked.
''We promise we will be good if you stay.'' They both said.
Brooke looked at Lucas she was ready to cry. Lucas nodded his head so she bent down to their level. ''I never hated you guys or your sister, I was so happy when you too were put in my arms the day you were born. When your daddy and I finished school we were so happy because that meant spending everyday as a family and not having to send you to your grandma's house. We planned to go to the beach and maybe on vacation. When the bad man had me locked up all I ever thought about was you two and your daddy and Emily.'' Brooke said taking her eyes from Dylan and Cole and looking over at Emily who was still on the couch. ''I bet you have all been really good boys and girl for daddy while I was away and I know if I had the chance to stay here you all would have been good.'' Brooke said.
''I missed you mommy.'' Emily said getting off the couch and walking over to Brooke and hugging her.
Brooke wrapped her arms around Emily. ''I missed you too my angel.'' Brooke said calling her by the nickname Brooke had given her.
''Did you miss us mommy.'' Dylan and Cole asked.
''Yeah I did. Come here.'' Brooke said opening her arms for Dylan and Cole and hugging all of her kids.
''Daddy, come hug too.'' Dylan called out to Lucas who had stayed back while Brooke saw her kids.
''Yeah Luke come hug too.'' Brooke said.
Lucas walked over and hugged Brooke and their kids. ''We have to get a photo of this.'' Peyton said. ''Sorry it's just Victoria is on the phone and wanting to speak to you.'' Peyton said after Lucas glared at her.
Lucas got off the floor and took the phone from Peyton. ''Hi Victoria.'' Lucas said as he answered the phone.
''Lucas, Richard and I were talking and we were wondering if it was okay with you if we could pick the kids up from school tomorrow and take them to the mall.'' Victoria asked.
''The kids won't be in school, it turns out that Nick is Emily's new teacher. I was just coming to phone you to let you know that we have Brooke back, Haley found her last night and I spent the night with her at the hospital.'' Lucas told Victoria.
''Why am I just getting this now.'' Victoria asked.
''Brooke spent the night at the hospital and I didn't get home till this morning and I told the kids then went right back to the hospital to be with her.'' Lucas answered her.
''Can Richard and I call over to see her or is she wanting to be alone with the kids.'' Victoria asked.
''Give me a second and I'll ask Brooke if she is up to more visitors.'' Lucas told her as he walked back into the playroom. ''Brooke, your mom and dad want to know if they can come over.'' Lucas asked Brooke,
Brooke nodded her head, ''She wants to be alone with the kids maybe tomorrow.'' Lucas told Victoria.
''We'll see you tomorrow.'' Victoria said.
Lucas handed the phone back to Peyton who left the room. ''Since when is my parents talking to you.'' Brooke asked.
''Since Nick took you. They said they realized that they missed your childhood and that they were crappy parents but if I would let them they would like to be better grandparents and they want to take you three to the mall tomorrow.'' Lucas told them.
''I never thought that hell would freeze over.'' Brooke said trying to stand up. The only problem was the kids wouldn't let her go.
''You three let mommy go, she needs to go get a shower.'' Lucas told them. ''I promise you that mommy will be back down. She isn't going anywhere.'' Lucas told them.
''Okay daddy.'' Emily said letting go and pulling Dylan and Cole back. ''Let's go find Jenny and Jamie.'' She said to them and they ran out of the room.
''Are you saying I smell.'' Brooke asked.
''No, just thought you would've wanted a shower.'' Lucas said.
''Where is the bathroom.'' Brooke said. A shower sounded nice.
''I'll show you.'' Lucas said showing Brooke up stairs and to his bedroom. ''There's a shower in there and I'll find you some clothes to wear.'' Lucas said.
Brooke went into the bathroom as Lucas got out a pair of sweatpants and his old grey hoodie that she loved. He knocked on the door. ''Brooke can I leave these in the bathroom.'' Lucas asked.
''Yeah, can you just not look towards me please.'' Brooke shouted back.
''I won't I promise.'' Lucas said he went into the bathroom put the clothes on the rack and then left again.
-x-
''Where's Brooke.'' Peyton asked when Lucas came into the family room.
''She's in the shower in my room.'' Lucas said as he sat down on the arm chair.
''Did you tell mom and dad yet.'' Nathan asked Lucas.
''No not yet, Richard and Victoria are going to come see Brooke tomorrow then take my three to the mall.'' Lucas said. ''I'm to go and phone mom and dad.'' Lucas said getting up and going to the kitchen. ''Hey mom, is dad there and can you put me on speaker.'' Lucas asked Karen.
''Yes sweetheart.'' Karen said putting Lucas on speaker and calling Dan.
''What's wrong son.'' Dan asked.
''I just wanted to tell you that Brooke's home. Haley found her last night after she left your house. I'm only phoning now as I have just gotten the chance too.'' Lucas told them.
''Oh sweetheart that's good news. Have the kids seen her yet.'' Karen asked.
''Yeah, Dylan and Cole asked her if she didn't love them and if she hated them and if she stayed they would be good.'' Lucas told his parents.
''We'll call round tomorrow to see her, I'm sure she just want to be alone.'' Karen said.
''Does Richard and Victoria know.'' Dan asked.
''Yeah, they called here wanting to know if they could take the kids to the mall tomorrow and I told them. They are going to call tomorrow and see her too.'' Lucas told them.
''Luke, your cell phone is ringing.'' Nathan called out to him.
''Mom, dad I have to go my cell phone is ringing.'' Lucas said.
''Okay see you tomorrow, we love you and tell Nathan we love him too.'' Karen said.
''Love you too mom.'' Lucas said. He walked into the family room and took his cell from Nathan. ''Hello Lucas Scott speaking.'' Lucas said into his cell.
''Lucas, it's Ashley, Adam Sanders agent, I was phoning you to let know that the premiere for Tree Hill has been moved forward to this Friday night.'' Ashley said.
''Ok thanks I'll make sure the boys are there.'' Lucas said.

Brooke came back down and heard everyone in the family room. ''Brooke come on in. We're watching one of Dylan and Cole's movies. The Astronaut's wife.'' Haley called out when she saw her standing at the door.
''Sorry, it's weird being able to walk about a house.'' Brooke said walking into the family room.
''Mommy come sit here beside daddy and me.'' Emily called from her spot on the couch beside Lucas.
Brooke walked over and sat beside them. Lucas put his arm around the top of the couch. ''Anyone want takeout for dinner.'' Nathan asked once the movie was over.
''Sure, you and I can pick it up.'' Lucas said. ''You'll be okay here with the kids and Jake.'' Lucas asked Brooke.
''Yeah sure.'' Brooke said.
''We'll keep you safe mommy.'' Dylan and Cole said jumping up from the ground and sitting beside Brooke and Emily.
''Thank you.'' Brooke said.
''What do you want in the Chinese.'' Lucas asked Brooke.
''Anything, I'm not worried.'' Brooke told him.
''Alright, do you guys want your usual.'' Lucas asked Emily, Dylan and Cole.
''Yes daddy.'' The three of them called.
''You ready Luke.'' Nathan called out.
''Coming Nate.'' Lucas said leaving the room and following Nathan to the car.
-x-
After they came back with the takeout they watched monster house before putting the kids to bed. ''Night boys. Daddy loves you guys.'' Lucas said tucking Dylan and Cole into their beds.
''Night daddy, night mommy.'' Dylan and Cole said.
Lucas walked over to Brooke. ''You can go and tuck them in you know, then you can meet me in Emily's room.'' Lucas told her walking out of the room.
''Night boys.'' Brooke said walking over and kissing the two boys on the forehead.
''Love you mommy.'' They said.
''I love you two too.'' Brooke said before turning the light off and leaving the room. She went into Emily's room and stood at the door as she heard Emily and Lucas sing.
You tucked me in, turned out the light Brushed my teeth and combed my hair You had to do it all alone And when I couldn't sleep at night Caterpillar in the tree Wish you may and wish you might Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away Butterfly fly away, butterfly fly away Butterfly fly away
Kept me safe and sound at night
Little girls depend on things like that
Had to drive me everywhere
You were always there when I looked back
Make a living, make a home
Must have been as hard as it could be
Scared things wouldn't turn out right
You would hold my hand and sing to me
How you wonder who you'll be
Can't go far but you can always dream
Don't you worry, hold on tight
I promise you there will come a day
Butterfly fly away
Flap your wings now you can't stay
Take those dreams and make them all come true
We've been waiting for this day
All along and knowing just what to do
Butterfly, butterfly, butterfly, butterfly fly away
Butterfly fly away
''Is mommy going to come and say good night.'' Emily asked.
''Yeah I was just listening to you and daddy sing.'' Brooke said coming into the room closer.
''Night princess I love you.'' Lucas said kissing her.
''Night daddy, love you too.'' Emily said kissing Lucas' cheek. ''Night mommy, I love you.'' Emily said to Brooke.
''Night angel. I love you too.'' Brooke said kissing Emily on the forehead.
Lucas and Brooke walked out of Emily's bedroom and met up with the others downstairs in the main living room. ''We sit in here when the kids are in bed.'' Lucas said guiding Brooke into the room.
They all sat down and talked and laughed sharing things that Brooke missed out on or even high school. ''You guys want another drink.'' Lucas asked standing up and heading into the kitchen.
''Yeah please Luke.'' Nathan called out.
Brooke followed Lucas into the kitchen to help him with the drinks. ''Did Nick ever say anything to you about your weight.'' Lucas asked Brooke.
''The first time I asked him for food he told me I still had baby fat from being pregnant with the boys and that I didn't need to eat.'' Brooke told Lucas. ''Why.'' She asked him.
''I noticed that you didn't eat much at dinner time.'' Lucas said. ''I need to know now Brooke if you have an eating disorder so I can figure out how to help you with it.'' Lucas said.
''I don't know, it's just that was the most food I've had in 5 years.'' Brooke told him as they headed into the living room.

Later that night Brooke was fast asleep in the guest bedroom. Lucas had offered her to sleep in his room but she told him she wasn't ready to sleep with him. ''Luke are you awake.'' Brooke asked shaking him.
Lucas turned his head to the side and pushed himself up on his fore arms. ''You okay Brooke.'' Lucas asked.
''I keep hearing noises, I'm scared encase Nick finds me.'' Brooke told him.
''Come here.'' Lucas told her lifting his covers up.
Brooke climbed in beside him and cuddled into his side. They both fell back to sleep.
AN-Hope you all like how Brooke was reunited with her kids and people voted for Brooke not to be pregnant. Please review.
Do you want Brooke to have an eating disorder?
