Previously…

At that exact moment, the doors to Brooke's room opened and a doctor came out. Both Nathan and Lucas jumped out of their seats.

The doctor looked at both men before saying, "We tried everything we could…"

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"…and we managed to save Brooke. However, she does not remember anything."

"What do you mean she doesn't remember anything?" Lucas exclaimed.

"I mean that she has temporary memory loss. It sometimes lasts for a week or a month or sometimes a year. It depends on her specific condition. Because of the crash, she suffered damage to the part of the brain that deals with your memory."

"Oh god, is she going to be okay though?" Nathan asked.

"Yes, she will be okay. She does have other minor problems but the memory loss is the biggest problem."

"Can we go see her?"

"Of course. She's awake. Please do not overwhelm her to try and remember. She is still in a critical state."

The doctor walked away leaving a relieved Nathan and a bewildered Lucas. Nathan rushed to the door but stopped short when he saw that Lucas wasn't following in suit.

"Luke, I know your are still mad about me and Brooke but you can't not visit her!"

"I just…I dunno…I…"

"Lucas, she needs us. She needs you."

"Ok." Lucas said as he walked towards his brother, frightened to see the state of his wife.

Both men slowly made their way to Brooke's bed. Nathan's heart went out to her. She had a big cut on her forehead, her arm was in a cast, and bruises were scattered along many parts of her body. He felt responsible for her current state. She looked so fragile and helpless in her nightgown, an outfit she would normally be repulsed by. He just wanted to go give her a tight hug and tell her that everything would be okay.

She slowly opened her eyes and stared at the two unfamiliar figures hovering above her.

"Who are you?" she asked.

"God, Nathan, I can't do this. I can't deal with Brooke right now," Lucas said as he rushed back outside.

Nathan hurried to his brother before he left. "Lucas! She needs us! You can't just leave her when she needs you the most. Remember your wedding vows?"

"Wedding vows? Ha! Like those ever meant something to her! If they did, then why did she ever sleep with you?"

Ouch. Nathan felt like the guy in front of him wasn't his brother. Lucas loved Brooke and would've forgiven her for this one mistake. This man was an inconsiderate jerk.

"Look. I can't deal with a memory-less Brooke. I'm already broken because of the whole Shelly isn't your kid incident. And this just adds to the confusion. I need some time. I think I'm gonna go visit Haley for two weeks. Clear my head. Figure everything out."

"You're ditching your wife for Haley? Are you crazy?"

"Nathan, look I'm sorry. But right now I need to do what's best for me." Lucas then walked away, leaving a furious Nathan to deal with Brooke.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"I see one of you is back," Brooke said as she saw Nathan re-enter the room.

"Uh, yeah sorry about that."

"It's fine. Who was that guy?"

"Uh…that's Lucas. Your husband."

"My what?!" Brooke exclaimed. "I'm married!?! To a guy that I don't even know?!"

"Hey, hey calm down," Nathan said. He came up to her bed and sat down on the side. He tried to rub her back but she pulled away.

"And who are you?"

"I'm…I'm a good friend of yours. I'm Nathan."

"Oh. So I don't remember a thing?"

"Unfortunately not."

All of a sudden Brooke's shoulders started shaking and she started crying.

"What am I going to do? I don't know who I am! I'm married! I…" she sobbed loudly.

"Hey, shh…everything's going to be okay. I promise you."

"How do you know?"

"Because, you're Brooke. And you're strong. And you can get through this. We can get through this. I'm here for you and I always will be. I won't let you go."

And this time when he tried to hug her, she didn't resist. Instead, she buried her head into the one man's chest who would be there for her every step of the way.
