Sorry to leave on a cliffhanger! I love doing that to you. I told you things would happen fast. That's how those things usually go. Thanks for the reviews. I hope you guys don't hate me!

"Oh my God." Lucas cried, and immediately Haley was at his side, and she pulled him into a hug.
"Everything will be okay Luke." Haley promised.
"You don't know that Haley." Lucas whispered. "It's all my fault."
"Keep holding on Lucas." Haley said.
You're
not alone Keep holding on
Together we stand
I'll be by your side, you know I'll
take your hand
When it gets cold
And it feels like the
end
There's no place to go
You know I won't give in
No I
won't give in
'Cause you know we'll make it
through, we'll make it through
Just stay strong
'Cause you know
I'm here for you, I'm here for you
There's nothing you could
say
Nothing you could do
There's no other way when it comes to
the truth
So keep holding on
'Cause you know we'll make it
through, we'll make it through
"I have to see her." Lucas said, and then walked away from Haley.
He started to walk in when Keith grabbed his shoulder. Lucas turned around.
"Don't go in Luke."
"Why not?" Lucas asked angrily.
"You don't want to see her like this." Keith promised. "She looks bad Lucas. She looks really bad."
"I have to see her Keith." Lucas said, and he opened the door. They both look in and see Brooke lying there, lifeless. She had bruises and cuts all over her face, a bandage over her head, and a cast over her foot. She was unconscious, and hooked up to monitors. Immediately after he opened the door, the monitors hooked up to her stomach went off. "Keith?" he said crying.
"They are trying to save the baby right now." Keith said, as doctors burst into the room, and made Lucas leave.
"It's all my fault." Lucas whispered, slumped down against a wall.
"Luke, it's not…" Keith started.
"Yes it is!" Lucas said.
"Luke, if she would have gotten on her plane that leaves in a week…" Keith started.
"Wait, what?" Lucas asked. "Oh yeah, when she was sitting by herself, she said… Where was she going Keith? What would've happened?"
"I can't tell you where she was going, that's up to her. She was going to get on a plane that would've crashed. She would've died then. But you could have saved her. She has a chance to live from this." Keith said, putting his hand on Luke's shoulder.
"Mr. Scott?" a doctor asked.
Lucas looked up, and heard Keith say, "Be strong Luke. I'll be back," and with that, Keith could no longer be seen.
"Yes?" Lucas asked.
"We can't seem to find the baby's heart beat. That doesn't mean it isn't there. The baby could have shifted, but there isn't a real chance of finding it. There is a small possibility we could however. The only thing we can do is pray." And then the doctor walked away.
Lucas got up, and walked back to the waiting area. He waved goodbye to Haley, and he walked out of the hospital.
"Luke! Where are you going?" Your girlfriend's life is on the line." Haley said, catching up to him, and stopping him.
"She isn't even my girlfriend anymore." Lucas whispered.
Haley put her hand to her mouth, and said, "Luke, I'm so sorry." She pulled him into a hug.
He hugged her back, and then he walked out to his car. He got in, and drove off.
He drove to the intersection where the accident happened. The police were still there, cleaning up, and the man from the car that hit Brooke was there.
Lucas got out of his car, and ran up to the guy and said, "Hey! Are you the guy who hit her?"
"Yeah. I am." The man said, looking remorseful.
Lucas raises up his arm, and punches the man across the face. The police run over and break up the fight, while Lucas is yelling, "You could've killed Brooke!"
The police take Lucas back to the hospital.
"Hey! What is going on here?" Haley asks, getting out of her chair.
"This young man hit Jack Hellas, the man who hit Brooke. We need someone to watch him and make sure he doesn't get in more trouble." The police officer reported.
"I got him." Haley said, and then the police left. "Lucas!"
"He hit Brooke, Haley." Lucas said, looking to the ground.
They both hugged, and started to cry.
"Mr. Scott?" the doctor asked.
"Yeah?" Lucas asked, and wiped off his cheek, but he kept his arm around Haley.
"I have some good and bad news."
Sorry to leave you hanging. The next chapter will be up soon. Please review, even though you probably hate me right now.
