Over You
Chapter 7
"I'm coming!" She yelled as the person on the other side of the door knocked harder, whoever it was seemed in a hurry.
She finally got to the door and fiddled with the lock before yanking it open. She didn't expect the one person she hated right now to be on the other side of the door!
"Brooke?"
She tried to fight it, she really did, but she just couldn't anymore.
"What's wrong?!"
He looked worried, but she didn't notice.
"Brooke!"
He was too late.

"Nathan I think we should probably go check on Brooke. She's not answering her phone…" Haley told her husband as she walked into their room.
Nathan raised an eyebrow. "She's probably busy. You know… like… Brooking herself…"
Haley rolled her eyes and chuckled a little but then grew serious.
"She hasn't been feeling well Nate." Haley told him as she sat on their bed beside him.
Nathan sat up and groaned, "but I wanted to have some fun with you tonight…"
"I know, I know." Haley turned to look at him. "And we will. But could we please just…"
Haley didn't get a chance to finish her sentence before her cell phone rang.
Nathan reached over and grabbed it off the table that was beside their bed. "Lucas."
Haley bit her lip and hesitated before taking the phone and answering.
"Hello?"
"Hales!"
"Lucas what's wrong?!"
"Its Brooke."
Haley swallowed and looked over at Nathan. 'What's wrong?' He mouthed when he saw her worried look.
"What's wrong Luke?"
Nathan was by now sitting right beside his wife waiting for an answer.
"I don't know Hales." Luke sounded horrible. His voice was almost cracking. "I just knocked and she came to the door and then…"
Haley was by now standing up, motioning to Nathan to be quiet as he tried to get answers from her.
"And what Luke!"
"She fainted. I call 911 and they came and got her but she was still unconscious and…and I'm driving to the hospital because they wouldn't let me go with her…"
"Great." Haley muttered to herself. Just the sight of her friend was causing Brooke problems…
"We'll be there as soon as we can Luke."
Haley looked over at Nathan, he could tell it wasn't good and was already going to put his shoes on.
She heard Lucas sigh before telling him it would be ok.
"Yea." He muttered back, not sounding to sure and then they told each other goodbye and hung up their phones.
"What's wrong Haley?" Nathan was by now ready to go as Haley went to get ready herself.
"Brooke. Hospital."
Nathan's eyes got wide.
---
Lucas finally arrived at the hospital, only a few minutes after the ambulance. He parked his car and then raced inside to the emergency room towards the desk.
"Can someone please help me? Do you know what's happening with Brooke Davis? Is she ok?"
A tired looking nurse sat in front of him, typing on a computer, not even bothering to look up at him.
"Are you family sir?"
"No but her family won't come."
The nurse sighed and gave him a look.
"Please ma'am." Luke tried his best 'puppy dog' face and the nurse just rolled her eyes.
Just then happened to look over and see through double doors a gurney being wheeled by, extremely fast that held Brooke on it.
His eye's almost tripled in size. "Brooke!" He yelled and ran towards the doors.
"Sir!" One of nurses yelled, "You cannot go back there!"
Of course Lucas wouldn't listen. He ran through the doors and was just in time to see them in an elevator at the end of the hall and the doors closing. "Damnit." He cursed under his breath.
"Sir, you can't be back here!" A nurse grabbed his arm and pulled him back into the waiting room.
Lucas hung his head. He had failed her. He should have been able to protect her but he couldn't and now only who knows what was happening to her.
He shook the male nurses arm off of him. "What's happening to her?" He asked in a quieter much more defeated voice.
"Sir, you are not family so am not allowed to tell you anything." Lucas looked like he was about to cry, the nurse sighed and shook his head, "But since her family can't be here I'll try to get a doctor to come get you as soon as they know something Ok?"
Lucas nodded. That's all he could do. He was afraid that if he talked he would break down. All he had wanted to do was ask her why she had hit Peyton. He didn't mean to send her to the hospital…
"What is your relation to her?"
Luke looked up at him, almost glaring.
"It will make it easier for me to convince a doctor to come and fill you in."
"I'm her…"
He gulped. He never thought it would be that hard to say one simple word. Only two letters long. But it killed him.
"Her ex."
The guy gave Lucas a small smile and nodded before thanking him and leaving, of course that also meant leaving Lucas to his thoughts.
Right as he was about to sit down he saw Nathan and Haley rush in.
"Luke!" They both yelled when they saw him and rushed over to him.
Haley took one look at her friend and embraced him in a hug.
"What happened?" She whispered while holding him and looking at Nathan.
"I just… she opened the door and…" Lucas's voice was cracking.
Haley sighed and rubbed his back, Nathan gave her a small smile and that made her feel a little better.
"What happened after she opened the door Luke?" Haley asked like she was talking to a five-year-old.
"She fainted and…and… I couldn't catch her in time…" Haley felt her shirt starting to get wet.
"Shh. Luke its ok…" Lucas barely nodded and hugged her tighter and Haley felt her throat tighten up.
"Nate…" She whispered and pointed towards Luke. He nodded and went over and put a hand on Luke's shoulder, his brother turned and he grabbed onto Nate who helped him sit down on the chairs right behind them.
Nathan then turned towards his wife who looked horrible under the front she was putting up. He opened his arms and she into his willingly.
"She'll be ok Hales." He whispered into her ear and she mumbled something.
"Nate there's something I should have probably told you…" Haley lifted her head up off his chest and looked up at him.
"Anything baby." He kissed her nose, looking over real quick to make sure Luke was still sitting. He was but with his head in his hands.
"Brooke's…"
Haley couldn't finish because a doctor came out.
"Anyone here from Brooke Davis?"
Lucas shot up from his seat. "Right here!"
Nathan looked at Haley trying to get her to continue.
She just shook her head and mumbled to him she'd tell him later before they all went over to the doctor.
"Are any of you family?" The male doctor asked, maintaining eye contact with Lucas.
"No, we are her best friends though, her family lives in California." Haley told the doctor after seeing Lucas was in no way ready to handle the questions.
For a moment she wondered why he was so torn up, he was the one that didn't want her…
"I see. Well I'm doctor Logan. We are currently checking over Miss Davis and we need to know what happened before we can continue."
Both Haley and Nathan looked over at Lucas who looked like he was about to say something but stopped. Haley sighed.
"She fainted."
Doctor Logan nodded, "ok is there any other conditions we should be aware of before we treat her? Any allergies to medicines?"
Haley bit her lip and looked over at Lucas who was shaking his head no. She knew she had to speak up…
"Ok well since her family won't be coming I'll keep you informed and let you know when you all can go and see her." And then Doctor Logan turned and started walking away.
All three of the teenagers turned to walk back to their seats but Haley knew she had to go back. She told Nathan she'd be right back and turned and went after the doctor.
She caught up with him in the hallway.
"Doctor Logan!"
"Yes, miss…?"
"Mrs. Scott. Haley." Haley muttered and then Doctor Logan told her something about not being allowed back here yet but she cut him off.
"She's pregnant."
Doctor Logan nodded. "Ok, thank you." He was about to leave again but she stopped him.
"Look, Dr. Logan, the father… well she doesn't want him to know… not yet. And he's the one out in the waiting room all torn up. So if you could please tell everyone to keep that conversation out of the ears of him? His name is Lucas."
"I will try, but if it compromises her health then I can't keep that promise."
Haley nodded. "Thank you, I understand."
Dr. Logan turned to leave and Haley let him walk away this time and turned back to go to Nathan and Lucas.
Nathan raised an eyebrow as if asking Haley what she had done once she came back.
"I'll tell you later." Haley mouthed and sat down next to the distraught Lucas.
"Hales?" Lucas whispered from beside her.
"Yea?" She looked at him and gave him a weak smile.
"She'll be ok… right?"
Haley looked up at Nathan, who was pacing, "yea, she only fainted… She'll be fine…" she mumbled.
Lucas shook his head and leaned back into the chair. He was about to tell Nathan to quit pacing but his phone started vibrating. He pulled it out of his pants pocket and looked at the caller ID, 'Peyton'.
Haley and Nathan were looking at him by now.
"I'll be right back guys." Luke stood up and walked towards the exit, his attitude completely changed. He hit the talk button and held the phone next to his ear.
"Hello?"
"Luke! Its about time! I've been trying to get a hold of you for over an hour!"
Lucas rolled his eyes and thought about why he was here, his face dropped.
"Peyton I know I said I'd be right back but something came up. I don't know when I'll be back…"
"Lucas!" Peyton's voice cracked a little. "There's… something I need to tell you. It's important…"
Lucas groaned, he really didn't want to deal with this right now. "Peyton can't you just tell me over the phone?"
"No."
He could have sworn he heard her almost giggle as he told her he'd be back soon. Brooke would be ok right? After all she had only fainted and he was sure that his brother and sister-in-law would call him as soon as they heard anything.
---
A couple of hours later both Nathan and Haley were sitting next to each other still in the very uncomfortable waiting room chairs. Lucas had ran to Peyton even thought they could see he wanted to be here. He should have been here. But of course he had chosen Peyton again.
"Nathan…" Haley mumbled, while laying on his shoulder with her hand over her stomach.
"Yea babe?" Nathan kissed the top of her head and placed an arm over her.
"What I was going to tell you earlier… about Brooke…" Haley sat up and looked at Nathan.
Nathan nodded, signaling for her to continue.
"She's…"
Haley didn't continue because she saw Dr. Logan coming out.
"Mr. And Mrs. Scott?" Dr. Logan called them; they stood up and went over to him.
"Yes Dr. Logan? How's Brooke is she ok?" Nathan spoke up first and grabbed Haley's hand and squeezed it.
"Miss Davis will be fine, she just suffered a very small bump on her forehead, she doesn't have a concussion but she will be tired for a while. The reason she fell is because it seems she got too stressed about something, I'm presuming the children am I right Mrs. Scott?" The doctor looked at Haley.
Nathan looked totally confused and even more shocked at Haley told him yes.
"Well Miss Davis will need to be kept stress free for the time being, its not good for her children. Other then that she will be just fine. I suggest she tells the father soon so she can move on to have a healthy pregnancy."
"Wait… you said children, as in more than one?" Haley questioned looking a little surprised.
"Yes, she is carrying twins. She has already been told and you may go and see her, I'll get a nurse to take you to her in a minute." Dr. Logan gave them both a smile and shook their hands; both the Scott's looking shocked by this new news.
"Thank you Dr. Logan." They muttered before waiting for a nurse to bring them to their friend.
A/N I hope you guys liked this one! I wasn't too sure of it… Let me know what you think! Anything you would like to see happen? Too cliché making Brooke have twins? No flames please but constructive criticism is ok. If you think its too cliché don't worry I have plenty of twists and turns that could be put in – as well as my cousin help who's helping me with ideas!
