When they got to the house Brett jumped put pf the car and went over to Kelly's side and helped her out. She smiled and laughed at how worried he seemed.
"Brett, I can walk the two feet to get to the house, ya know?" She said laughing, he looked up at her and smiled back and put an arm around her waist to help her in.
"Just in case." He said smiling at her judging look. She laughed and gave him a kiss on the cheek as they headed in the house. As soon as they got in Kelly took in the surroundings before her. Everything looked different from when she had last seen it and that was like only a week ago. Then she remembered the reunion thing.
"Dad, what about the reunion, dod you guys go?" She asked looking seriously at him. He shook his head.
"No sweetie, it's not until next month so I thought that we could stay here until then, what do ya think?" He asked and she almost fell down after squealing causing everyone to laugh.
"Oh thank you, thank you, thank you! Wow, this is awesome!" She said as she went to stand up, "Whoa." She said and felt dizzy and almost fell before Brett caught her.
"Take it easy babe. You okay?" He asked with pure concern. She looked up at him and smiled her famous smile and nodded. He smiled back and kissed her softly on the forehead. Lucas smiled at this.
"So when did you two get together?" He asked pointing to the two of them. they both smiled.
"About six hours ago." Kelly said nodding her head. Lucas let out a soft laugh. Kelly all of a sudden heard her cell ring and she looked at the caller ID and squealed into the phone, "Jessa!"
"Jessa? She's calling you? Don't you usually call her?" Lucas laughed a little and Kelly glared at him and turned back to the conversation with her best friend.
Lucas looked at Kelly and felt happy as she smiled while talking to her friend. Jessa had been Kelly's friend since they were 3 years old. Jessa Lane was a brooder. She always thought of rational ways to do things. She was as smart as Kelly but never did like going to the parties and everything Kelly went to. Both were on the cheerleading squad and both were gossipy when they wanted to be but Jessa was different. She was feisty and loved the boys but in more ways then one she was like Haley. Except for the whole getting the boys type thing Jessa was a Haley clone.
"Who do you think she is?" Peyton asked looking at everyone else. Haley shrugged.
"I dunno but I want to find out." Haley replied.
After awhile Kelly finished the conversation with a big, "Love ya hun, call ya later!" And went over to the rest of them. Kelly stood by Brett and kissed him on the cheek which he smiled brightly at as did everyone else. It was Jake who asked the one question almost everyone was thinking.
"Who's Jessa, guys?" He asked and Kelly nodded at Lucas signaling that she'd tell.
"Jessa is my bestest friend in the world! I've known her since we were like three and we've been almost inseperatable since. We did everything together. She's on the squad with me and she loves to talk gossip...well most of the time and she loves the boys and is sometimes a big flirt but most of the time she stays home and studies for...whatever test we'd have in the next month. She's a nerd but hey that's why me and every other guy in the school love her." She said brightly. Jessa also helped her with everything that she needed to be helped with. It was her and her father that helped her dig out of the hole that she dug herself in.

Lucas sat there as beautiful music came from the piano. He watched as Carlos walked up to the alter and took his place. Lucas' heart ached. He knew that he wouls eventually cave and go to ther wedding but he didn't want to. He didn't want to watch the only woman's he's every truly loved get married. He sat there wishing and praying she would stop the wedding and tell him she loved him and wanted only him but as she walked down the isle he knew she wouldn't.
She was stunning in her dress but none the less he couldn't look at her. He wanted, no, needed to get out of there but for some strange reason he couldn't make his legs move so he stayed put. He looked at her and for a brief moment she looked at him with a face full of regret.
"Do you, Carlos Andreas Sancerman, take Brooklyn Penelope Davis to be your louful wedding wife through sickness and health as long as you both shall live?" The priest asked and Carlos smiled.
"I do." He stated and both Brooke and him smiled.
"Now do you, Brooklyn Penelope Davis, take Carlos Andreas Sancerman to be your louful wedding husband throuht sickness and health as long as you both shall live?" The priest asked and Brooke looked at Lucas and without hesitation she answered.
"I do." she said and from that point Lucas felt his heart being ripped apart. He thought she would say no for him. He thought she loved him. He drowned out the rest of the ceremony and went to the reception and that's when Brooke walked up to him.
"What are you doing here?" She asked a little agitated. He looked at her shocked, she had asked him to come.
"Well...you..."He started but was interupted by a harsh slap across the face.
"I told you before Lucas, and i'll tell you now. I don't love you, I never did so you can stop chasing after me and wanting to be with me because I don't and will never love the likes of you." She said and started to walk off but she stopped and turned around, "By the way Kelly died in a car accident like two minutes ago so enjoy your life." She said laughing.

Just then Lucas woke up and was shaking and sweating when he fell to the floor with a loud thump causing half the house to wake up. His door opened and in cam Haley, Nathan, Brooke, Carlos, Brett, and Kelly. Kelly, his baby girl and Brooke the love of his life. What was he gonna do?
"Dad, are you okay?" Kelly asked with concern knealing down towards him regretting it as she felt a sharp pain shoot up her sides, but not wanting to worry Lucas or Brett she ignored them. Lucas looked at her and hugged her as tight as he could, due to her injuries.
Kelly was hugging her father but felt more worried then ever. He was sweating and shaking badly. She touched his forehead and sure enough he had a fever. She looked at him and he was pale.
"Dad, we should get you to the hospital. You're shaking and you have a fever." She said worridley but he shook his head profusly and was taking deep breaths.
"No, sweetie, i'm...fine...I just had a bad dream about someone...something. "He said quickly correcting himself as he noticed he was looking at Brooke. He saw the worry evident in her eyes and turned away from it. Kelly looked at him and knew that it was one of two things. Either his HCM was acting up or he had had a dream about someone. She was going with the dream but it was very possible that it could be both. She placed her good hand on his chest where his heart was and his heart was beating a million times a minute.
"Are you absolutly sure that you are okay?" She asked concerned and sternly. Lucas chuckled slightly as he saw the look she always gave him. It was the i'll kick your ass if you're lying to me look and it always made him laugh.
"Yes sweetie, i'm fine, "He said mocking her and she smiled. All of a sudden Kelly got another sharp pain up her sides and she flinched but managed to not show Lucas that she was in pain by smiling again. She got up and another pain shot up but it wasn't as bad.
"Okay, we'll talk about this tomorrow. You can sleep or whatever but unlike some, I need to get my beauty sleep. I mean, look at me." She said laughing and walking out of the room. Brett gave Lucas a nod and walked out. Haley came over to him and helped him back onto the bed but he almost fell to the floor again. He finally got up and put his head in his hands for a minute and everyone kept silent until Haley broke it.
"Hey can you guys give me and Lucas a minute?" She asked and everyone looked at her, "No go on, seriously. Go back to bed or whatever you guys, you'll see him tomorrow." They all nodded and went to leave. Brooke stopped at the door and walked over to where Lucas was and bent down and hugged him while whispering something only he could hear.
"We need to talk later" She whispered and they broke apart. It wasn't really a hug it was more of an acquantince thing. She walked off and then it was just him and Haley in the room. Haley walked over to him and sat down.
"How many talks do we have to have?"She said chuckling a little trying to lighten the mood. e smiled at her.
"Enough to make up for lost times." He stated and turned to her. "I've missed you so much Haley over the years. I could have used you when Kayley died." He said looking down.
"Lucas...there's something you should know..." She started but was interupted when he hugged her tight. She hugged him back and started to cry as kept saying things into her ears.
"I'm so sorry Haley, I never meant for this to happen and I swear that it'll never happen again. You are my best friend and I don't ever want that to be known as a phrase, I want it to be known as a statement. "He said and they both sat there hugging eachother.
That's what had happened for the rest of the night. The two old friends reminsced and talked about everything and everyone. Lucas told Haley about his nightmare and how life was with his HCM. She told him how everything with Brett happened and how he almost didn't make it and everything was discussed between the two. Lucas, however, didn't tell Haley about what had happened between him and Brooke.

Kelly opened her eyes and groaned. It was early...very early and she had been getting up like this every morning here for the past week.
Kelly was doing well. Her vital signs had cleared and she was making progress. Mostly all of her wounds were healed and she was going stronger then ever. Her and Brett were doing good and she was enjoying his company very well. The only thing wrong was that she wasn't getting much sleep the past few days and she knew the reason why. The whole experience of the car accident and the attack was very overwhelming and she started having night mares about the accident, only her mother was there. It chilled her to think that her mother had died over six years ago.
Kelly got up and got dressed in track pants and a tank top, put her hair into a messy bun and headed downstairs. When she got down there she was surprised to see someone up, sitting at the counter drinking orange juice. It was Brooke.
"Hey." Kelly said going into the fridge to get a waterbottle. Brooke looked up at her and smiled.
"Hey." She replied, "What are you doing up this early?" She asked while looking at the girl who was dressed.
"I should ask you the same question." Kelly said smirking slightly and took a seat next to Brooke as she drank her waterbottle.
"I just couldn't sleep. I was up thinking about the whole reunion thing and everything. Oh, by the way how are you feeling? I mean, I know you just got home like two days ago but still." Brooke said talking with her hands causing Kelly to laugh.
"I'm fine Brooke, thank you. I'm just up cause I was planning on going for a run. Dad and I did it every morning back at home." She said taking a sip of her water. Brooke nodded. "So, how are you? I mean, i've noticed that we really haven't talked lately and I just..." Kelly started but was interupted by Brooke.
"Kelly, I am so sorry. Those things I said that night..I mean, I wasn't thinking. Well, I was under the spell of the alcohol and when I said that all Lucas fell for were...skanks. I wasn't implying that your..."Brooke trailed off and Kelly held a hand up to her.
"I know, Brooke. At the time I was angry at you for saying it but I know you didn't mean it. From what I can tell you're pretty cool. I personally think that someday you'll make a great mom." She said causing Brooke to tear up.
"Thank..you...that means so much to me..."Brooke blubbered, causing Kelly to laugh and then smile.
"Well, you could stay cool if you covered for me and tell them i'm still in bed because i'm not really supposed to be out and running i'm supposed to be resting . If they ever ofund out, like I mean my dad or Brett for that matter, I'd probably be dead from them lecturng me so much." Kelly said laughing. They both laughed and Brooke finally spoke up.
"Ok but don't be long because I think I would die if I ever got another lecture out of Lucas." She said smiling and then it faded. Kelly nodded and headed for the door but stopped.
"It's okay to love him, you know?" Kelly said looking at Brooke with a soft look.
"Love who?" Brooke asked, knowing exactly who she was talking about. It's like this kid was a mind reader.
"You know who. Just remember Brooke, the past is in the past, and the future is something that's gonna last forever if you let it." Kelly said and walked out of the house. Kelly was like Lucas in so many ways. She was very insightful when she wanted to be.
Brooke sat there thinking of the words the seventeen year old girl had said to her. Brooke knew that she loved someone but right at the moment she wasn't sure who. Then it hit her. She had just doen the one thing she swore she would never do. She cheated. She cheated on Carlos with Lucas and it felt horrible. Now she knew what Lucas had felt like when he did it to her with Peyton. Maybe it was time to make things right, or maybe things were better left unsaid.
xoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxoxooxoxoxoxo
It was now 9am and everyone in the house was up sitting in the kitchen. Except Kelly. Brooke had been covering for her but was getting worried herself. Kelly had left almost five hours ago and still there was no sign of her.
"I think i'm gonna go check on her." Lucas said getting up but Brooke stood and quickly thought of something.
"Ugh...she's sleeping and apparently she's on her period so if I were you I wouldn't go near her for the next six days." Brooke said nervously. Lucas laughed.
Lately him and Brooke were okay with eachother. Things hadn't really been akward between them or anything. Ever since the conversation they had had with eachother everything seemed to have cleared the ice with them and it felt good. Lucas still didn't forgive Brooke completely but was dealing with it by being friends with her.
FLASHBACK
Lucas was sitting out on the porch watching the sun set when he heard footprints behind him and almost instatnly he knew who it was.
"I thought you'd never come." He said and he heard a light sigh.
"How'd you know it was me?" She asked and he laughed a little. Sometimes he wished he could tell her the real reason he knew it was her. It was because he thought that she was his soulmate and when you have a soulmate you can tell when their presence is there.
"I can feel you. I don't know how to explain it but I just feel you." He said still looking at the sunset. She came out behind him and handed him a cup of coffee. "Thanks." He said. She nodded.
"Lucas about...you know, " She said talking with her hands, he nodded, "I just think that it was.." She started but got interupted.
"A huge mistake, ya I know." He said still looking at the sunset which made him not see the pained expression on her face. "We never shuold have done it Brooke and i'm sorry for it." He said not looking at her.
"Lucas this is just as much my fault as it is yours. It takes two to do what we did." She said trying to reason with him. She wanted to tell him something that was on her mind but she decided against it.
"I know, but I should of had the desency to stop it. We shouldn't have done it Brooke." He said still not looking at her. She sighed frustrated.
"Lucas would you just look at me!" She half yelled at him but he didn't look.
"I can't." He said. She sighed again letting tears well into her eyes.
"Why?"She said, sadness filling her voice. "Are you that ashamed of me?" She said looking down and he finally looked at her with a hint of anger.
"How could you think that? Brooke I..." He started but got a small giggle out of her and he stopped.
"Made you look." She said smiling at him and he smiled in return. He looked back at the sunset and was still smiling.
"Brooke?" He said and she faced him.
"Yah?" She replied.
"Do you think it's possible to forget that it ever happened and maybe start to be friends?" He asked looking at her. At first she was a little shocked and hurt but softly smiled.
"I think that can be arranged," she said and decided to add a little humour, "just let me check my schedule." She said looking in her coat, "Damn where did I but that?" She said almost laughing.
"Check up your ass near the piece of bullshit." He said and they both started laughing and then had a comfortable silence. Both smiling, at what they had just reached.
END OF FLASHBACK
"Oh Brooke, you are the worst liar in the history of time!" Lucas said laughing at her attempts to cover up. Everyone headed up to her room and opened her door only to find her there lying in her bed peacefully asleep. Brooke silently sighed in relief and then Lucas yelled.
"KELLY BROOKLYN SCOTT!" He yelled at her and she shot up and looked at him. Everyone looked at him because of the middle name but they understood why he gave her the middle name now.
"What, dad?" She said innocently. He looked at her very angry and he pointed to her running outfit which was in her laundry basket. Damn it, She thought to herself.
"Where were you?" He asked already knowing the answer, he sighed as he saw the look on her face, "Kelly you're supposed to be on bed rest, you're not allowd to run Kelly. You really could get hurt." He said softening a little. She looked down.
"I'm sorry, dad. I really am but you know me, I can't just sit in a crappy bed all day, "She said and then a look on Haley's face, "no offense to your lovely beds, "She said smiling at the now beaming Haley, "but I need to get out of here." She said looking at him.
"Kelly, sweetie I know that you need to have some fun and everything and I would like you to have it but my parenting skills come first, you know that. You are not allwod to go anywhere without someone with you, at least." He said and Kelly smiled nodding. Just then Lucas' phone rang and he looked at the caller ID Clarkson S. Lucas eondered for a second and smiled. "It's about time you called. I've been waiting like two days." He said into the phone. Everyone looked at eachother as Lucas laughed and looked at his watch. "Ya sure, how about in 20 minutes...k see ya then Sum." He said hanging up and as he did all eyes were on him.
"Who was that?" Kelly asked giving him a smirk, he shook his head blushing a little.
"That was Summer." He said and everyone looked at him confused.
"Who's Summer? "Nathan asked. Who was this Summer person.
"The girl I was dancing with at the club we went to awhile ago. We gave eachother our numbers and she called me saying that she wanted to hang out together at her studio and she asked if you guys wanted to come." Lucas said and everyone looked at eachohther and they all nodded. Brooke was a little jealous though.
Truth be told Lucas and Summer had benn hanging out at her studio for the past two weeks. When Lucas wasn't at the hospital with Kelly he was talking to Summer. She really was a great person and she helped him through it and explained to him that everything happens for a reason and that maybe this was his chance to change things between himself and Kelly. He really liked Summer. He may love Brooke but he liked Summer because she was there for him and she comforted im first before anything else.
Everyone left except Brett who stopped Kelly from leaving. Kelly looked at him strangley as he held her arm and brought her back over to the bed. She laughed a little.
"You're not going to take me right here are you?" She said smirking slightly but stopped as she saw the look on his face. "What's wrong?" She asked. He sat beside herand looked at her.
"Don't you ever do that again." He said sternly, "Kelly, I know that we haven't been going out the long but I don't know what i'd do if anything ever happened to you." He said looking down at his hands. He was very worried when he had found out that she was out of bed.
Kelly lifted his chin up so that he was looking her in the eyes and she grabbed both of his hands.
"Brett, i'm sorry I didn't know you felt that way. I just...needed to get out of here. I needed to go do something, you know?" She said willing him to understand. He pulled out of her grasp and stood up a little angry.
"No, Kelly I don't know." He put his hands on top of his head and sighed; frustrated, "God damn it, Kelly. What if something happened to you!" He yelled and she looked down. He calmed down and went to sit beside her, he could hear her sobbing. "I'm sorry babe, I shouldn't have yelled. I just don't want anything to happen to you. I love you." He said and she shot her head up to look at him. Tears were straking down her face.
"Really?" She said looking at him disbelievingly. No one had ever said they loved her when she was in relationship's and actually meant it. He lifted up her chin smiling softly.
"Of course I do. You make me happy and I know it's kind of early and you don't have to say it back or anything."He said and she nodded. She wasn't ready to say it just yet. She knew she was falling for him hard and wanted to say it to him but she needed to know if he was actually going to stick around.
She gave a soft smile and leaned in and kissed him. It was gentle and blissful and neither of them had experienced this before. It got a little more passionate and that's when Brett pulled away looking into her eyes. He leaned in and gave her a peck on the cheek.
"No more scaring me, okay?" He said sincerly and she nodded and they both stood up. He was about to walk out when she stopped him and hugged him. She wrapped her arms around him as best as she could because she was still hurting. He held her close trying not to hurt her and kissed her on the head.
Then they pulled apart and interlocked hands and headed for the front of the house. When they got outside everyone was already in the car. It wasn't until Haley screamed out the window, "Haul ass you guys, we ain't gettin' any younger!" That they made their way to the car smiling and chuckling a little.

Honestly I think Kelly and Brett are cute. I like writing them and it's always fun writing Kelly. In the next couple of chapters drama will start to happen. Nothing major...at first. Lol. Until next time!
