Peyton has buried her head under the covers of her blankets. The alarm has been going off for the last 15 minutes and she really doesn't want to get out of bed. It really doesn't help that her and Lucas didn't really sleep at all the night before- you know with Peyton's raging pregnancy hormones and what not. But the worst part about it is that Lucas got up with the alarm and it's like he isn't even affected by the sleepless night and the early morning.
Lucas made French toast for breakfast and carries it up Peyton who is still buried under the covers. He puts the breakfast trey on the bedside table and crawls onto the bed leaning over Peyton. He pulls the covers off from over her head and starts trailing kisses down the back of her neck and naked shoulder "Peyton, baby, wake up" Lucas whispers in her ear sending shivers down her spine whilst he continues trailing kisses down her neck. Peyton turns around to face Lucas and says "Lucas Scott where did all this energy come from? We have been at it all night."
"I know and it was amazing- I just can't seem to get enough of my sexy girl." Lucas says as he now leaves kisses on the front of her neck whilst moving the sheet down to expose her chest. Peyton doesn't try to stop him and a burst of energy ruses through her body as Lucas and Peyton make love yet again, with breakfast forgotten.
They are still lying in bed two hours later Peyton fell back to sleep and Lucas is watching her whilst rubbing her stomach- he wakes up every morning with her in his arms and he still can't believe he got so lucky with her. He feels like they have known each other for years.
He hasn't spent a night at his house since Nathan and Haley got married. He needs to talk to Peyton about that- they need to set up the nursery and he is going to see if Peyton will let him move in with them.
Peyton slowly opens her eyes and can see Lucas staring down at her "what are you looking at?" Peyton asks with a smile playing across her lips
"You beautiful, last night and this morning was amazing." Lucas says as he leans across and kisses Peyton forehead
"It was amazing and very satisfying" Peyton says as she buries her head in Lucas's chest while Lucas just chuckles.
"So Lucas Scott, why did you set the alarm so early this morning?"
"Um... because we need to go to work" Lucas says looking over at the bedside clock and Peyton turning her head so she can see the time "Oh shit Lucas where late" Peyton says quickly jumping out of bed and running around the room naked. Lucas just chuckles, gets out of bed and stops her by grabbing her around the waist. "When you fell asleep again this morning I called Turner and told him that you and the twins weren't feeling that great so I am staying home to look after you."
"Really?"
"Peyton, you need a day off just to relax." Lucas says as he pulls Peyton down onto his lap.
"I know, but I do go on maternity leave at the end of next week- I feel kind of bad leaving my students." Peyton says with a pout that Lucas then kisses away as he holds her tight.
They sit there in silence for a while when Peyton lifts her head up quickly, looks into Lucas's eyes and says "Did you just call this place home?"
Lucas smiles and nods his head at Peyton- "I was thinking, maybe we could move in together before the babies come. I mean I'm here all the time and God I love you."
"You love me?" Peyton asks in a soft voice
Lucas who just realised that it's the first time he has said those three little words to Peyton, and he is kind of getting worried because she hasn't said anything yet and she is just staring at him with a smile on her face and tears in her eyes.
"Peyt, baby you don't need to say anything I just wanted you to know how I feel about you." Peyton just leans up and places a hungry kiss to Lucas's lips
"I'm so in love with you Lucas Scott- and I would love for you to move in with me."
A huge grin graces across Lucas's face as he looks at the blonde in his arms, the mother of his children and the love of his life. He just sits there staring at her with a stupid grin on his face.
"Aren't you going to kiss me or say something?" Lucas just winks at her picks her up into his arms and places her on her back, he gently climbs on top of her and they share a Love filled kiss, he then moves down to the stomach that is holding his children places a lingering kiss and says "I love you guys and your mommy more than life itself, and I can't wait to meet you, whatever you guys may be."
Peyton then pulls his head back up to meet hers and their lips crash together and they stay in bed for the rest of the day.
Its 6pm and they are eating Chinese food in bed Peyton has just taken a bite of her chicken when she says, "you really love me?"
Lucas laughs and shakes his head before he says "More than life itself and I will tell you every day if I have to." He then leans down and kisses her again. Peyton just blushes and smiles before she kisses him and digs back into her food.
Lucas and Peyton decided to keep the sex of their twins a secret and a special surprise for them as well only to find out whom exactly their twins will be on the day of their birth. Right now they are narrowing it down to their 6 favourite names twin girls, twin boys then one of each. "What do you think Luke?" Peyton asks
Lucas places his hands on Peyton's stomach, kisses her forehead and says "I think we are going to have twin girls who look just like you."
"Yeah, yeah, yeah sweet charmer" Peyton says as she cups Lucas's face with her hand "do you have any names in mind?"
"I was actually thinking we could name one of them Sawyer Elizabeth Scott, or Anna Sawyer Scott. I know how much your family means to you and I thought that we could honour your Parents and your birth mother."
Peyton has tears falling from her eyes and all she says is "I love you so much."

Peyton's last day of school came on a Friday which also happened to be a home basketball game that night. At 7 and a half months Pregnant with twins Peyton thinks to herself that she should have taken her maternity leave a month ago. The babies are moving around like crazy and they are getting big, she is running out of room in her belly for her babies.
Now that Peyton and Lucas are living together Lucas helps her to the car and carries her bags for her. He holds her hand while they drive the short distance to school, and gives her a kiss as he helps her out of the car. He has been really attentive to her for the last few weeks even starting basketball practice half an hour early so he can come home in time to pick Peyton up so he can drive her to school.
Lucas walks Peyton to her classroom and they are shocked to see the room is decorated in a baby theme no one knows what the sex of the twins is so everything is neutral and in pinks and blues. Haley is doing the finishing touches on the room when Lucas and Peyton walk in "Haley what is this?" Peyton asks with tears in her eyes.
"Well my dear best friend today is your last day before you go on maternity leave, and I know my stupid brother in law hasn't set the nursery up yet so we are giving you a baby shower." Haley says with a big smile on her face.
"Really, at school?" Peyton asks a little sceptically
"Yeah well we wanted to make your last day really fun, so as long as you don't give your students too much work I'm sure today will be great. I'm so happy for you." Haley says as she hugs Peyton and then heads out of the room.
Lucas walks towards Peyton and pulls her into a hug just as Haley's head pops back around the corner "Oh yeah there's goanna be cake at Lunch time- and presents if you're lucky."
Peyton gets through her final day at school with a lot of cake and even more presents. All her students can't wait to see the babies once they are born and they made Miss Sawyer promise to bring them in and show them off. She didn't give her students any big assignments she just asked them to draw something for the twins. When her and Lucas arrived home that night after the basketball game that the ravens won 68-54 Peyton put all the artwork from her students into a box so that when she is on maternity leave she will put the artwork together into a collage, frame it and hang it up in the nursery for her twins to have.
On the next Saturday Nathan and Lucas spend the day putting all the furniture in the freshly painted nursery. Peyton just sits in her rocking chair and tells the boys exactly how she wants everything. Later that night Brooke walks into Peyton and Lucas's house surprising everybody with her sudden appearance. She missed her family and has decided to run her clothing label 'clothes over bros' from Tree Hill where she started the label.
Peyton has been on Maternity leave for two weeks and she thinks that if Brooke hadn't come home when she did, then she would be going insane right now. Peyton has been put on bed rest for the remainder of her pregnancy- nothing is going wrong the doctors just want to make sure that she will be strong enough for her delivery and they really don't want the twins to come out earlier then they need to.
Brooke, Lucas, Haley, Nathan, Karen and Lilly all take shifts to spend time with Peyton whilst she is on bed rest- and as much as she loves the company of all her friends really family she secretly enjoys the company of Lucas, and Lilly the most.
As much as the doctors try to prevent the babies from coming early, the Scott twins are very stubborn and will come when they are good and ready and that so happens to be on the Friday night, her second week of maternity leave and five minutes after Lucas's basketball game started. Brooke was staying with Peyton when her water broke whilst she was in the kitchen, so Brooke grabbed Peyton's overnight bag, helped her into the car and drove a screaming Peyton off to the hospital.
When Peyton was settled into a room, she pulled her phone out of her bag and decided to call Lucas- she didn't even care that he would be in the middle of a game right now.
It's twenty minutes into the game when Lucas feels his phone vibrating, he pulls it out and Peyton's face is flashing across the screen "hey babe" Lucas says as he answers the phone
"Hi Luke, how's the game going?" Peyton asks trying to sound as normal as possible
"We're up by 6, how are you?"
"Do you think you can leave the boys in Nathans capable hands just for the rest of the game?"
"Oh Peyton, what's wrong sweetie?"
"I just thought that you would want to be there to witness the birth of your twins." Peyton says biting her lip with a smile on her face- while she is trying to hold in the pain from the contractions.
"WHAT?" Lucas Screams into the Phone
"Lucas I'm at the hospital in room 422 get your sexy ass here so you can hold my hand and welcome our little Scott twins into the world."
All Lucas can say is "I love you and I will see you soon." As he hangs up the phone; he calls for a time out, and quickly tells his team that he needs them to play on without him, and that he is becoming a father tonight. They all wish him congratulations and Nathan gives his big brother a hug as he runs out of the gym with a big smile on his face.
He makes is in the hospital in record time and races up to room 422 where he sees Peyton lying in the bed screaming in pain. He quickly rushes to her side, takes her hand and places a soft kiss to her head whilst whispering sweet nothings to her hoping she will calm down.
As the contractions stop and Peyton's breathing starts to even out, she rests her head back onto the pillow and all she can say is "I'm so glad you're here."
After the game Nathan, Haley, Karen and Lilly joined Brooke in the waiting room, unfortunately for them no one could see Peyton until after the twins were born, so Lucas was running between Peyton's room and the waiting room giving updates to his family. Eight and a half hours after Peyton's water broke she gave birth to a healthy little boy with ten fingers and ten toes whom they named Nathan Keith Scott. It took another 15 minutes for their second child to make an entrance into the world and she turned out to be Sawyer Elizabeth Scott.
They whole family was excited to see the little Scott's who was defiantly a really good surprise for their parents because it bought them together in the end. Karen had tears in her eyes when she held her grandson in her arms, he opened his eyes just for her and she kisses his forehead and whispers his name "Nathan Keith Scott" like it's the most perfect name for the perfect little boy.
Lucas is being stubborn and won't let anybody hold his daughter, until Peyton grabs Lucas's attention- which isn't hard because he is sitting on the bed next to her; she pulls his neck forward and kisses his lips. While he is trying to catch his breath again after they have pulled away Peyton takes Sawyer from his arms and hands her over to her pouting best friend. She then turns back to a pouting Lucas and kisses his pout away.
The new family of four have been at home for two weeks and they are trying to get accustomed to the 2am feedings and changing the twins. On a stormy night Sawyer starts crying at 3am just after she has been put back to bed Lucas jumps up with a start hoping to get to her before Nathan wakes up, but he is too late and as he walks into the nursery door, baby Nate starts to cry as well. Lucas first goes over to an unsettled Sawyer and pulls her into his arms and then he tries to pick Nathan up with his other arm. Peyton is standing in the doorway watching Lucas and trying to stifle a laugh when she says "I hope you're not trying to juggle my babies?"
Lucas chuckles and says "if I do that they may stop crying- good idea Peyt."
Peyton knows he is only joking but she still hurries off to the crib and picks up her baby boy and cradles him into her chest.
Lucas and Peyton each holding a baby walk back to their room, Peyton and baby Nate get into the bed, and Lucas hands Sawyer over to Peyton, he then goes to put some music on hoping it will sooth his children, like it sooths their parents. He then goes to join his family in bed.
Peyton is resting in Lucas's arms whilst the twins are lying in the between them on the bed. Lucas looks down to Peyton kisses her softly on her head, grabs her hand and says "Peyton, I really love you; and I just want to say thank you for making my life so perfect and for giving me a chance to be a father to our children."
Peyton smiles and turns slightly so she can look into Lucas's eyes "you're welcome, but if anyone should be thankful Luke, it would be me- I mean we barely knew each other, you didn't need to step up and take responsibility- I was ready to do this on my own- but then after four months I walk into the gym just after finding out that I had twins growing inside me and there you were standing there looking as sexy as ever and you smiled at me, and even though I was scared out of my mind I looked into your eyes and somehow I knew that everything was going to be ok."
Lucas Smiles, he then leans in and kisses Peyton's lips. They both pull back for air but neither one of them wants to lose contact so they keep their foreheads resting against each other. That's when Lucas whispers two words "Marry me?"
Peyton looks into his incredibly close and beautiful blue eyes and says "ok" just as softly as Lucas asked the question. They both lean in and Share a kiss to seal the deal. Lucas pulls back all too quickly for Peyton's liking and she groans in annoyance. Lucas leans over to his bedside table, opens the top draw and pulls out a pair of socks, Peyton is looking at him with crinkled eyebrows and he says "my feet are cold." He has is stupid, sexy smirk playing on his lips and he pulls a little black box from his socks. Peyton's breath catches in her throat.
He turns to her and says "you know how important Keith was to me, and I really wish you could have met him. He would have loved you." Lucas says with a sad smile thinking about his uncle, who was really his father.
"After he died I was in a really bad place and I just couldn't believe he was taken from us like that and no matter what my mum, or Nathan, or Lilly would do nothing would make me see the light. I started drinking and when I wasn't drinking I was sleeping and one morning my mum walked into my room, woke me up with a kiss to the head like she always did when I was little and said "Lucas Scott, just because Keith is gone, it does not mean that you can stop living your life and throw it down the toilet. Keith taught you how to be strong, and to live life to the fullest so that is what you have to do for him. And you need to be around long enough so that you can tell your little sister all about how amazing her father is and how much he will always love her."
Lucas has tears in his eyes and grabs Peyton's hand.
"My mom then pulled out a black box from her pocket, handed it to me and said "Lucas no matter what Keith will always be with you and he is proud of the man that you have become. You need to go and live your life to the fullest because above everything else that is what Keith would want. And when one day you fall in love and find the girl that you want to spend the rest of your life with- you give them this ring and know that Keith will always be there for you, watching over you, and helping you follow your heart and your dreams."
Peyton gives Lucas a teary eyed smile as he opens up the black box, he pulls out the ring, and says "Peyton, I love you..." but Peyton cuts him off "Yes, baby yes- God I love you."
She then grabs his face, and pulls him into a kiss. When they break for air Lucas takes Peyton's left hand and places the ring onto her finger, he then raises her hand and places a kiss to her hand and whispers "now it's right where it belongs,"
"And it will be forever" Peyton finishes with as she cuddles back into her fiancés arms.
Lucas and Peyton invited the family over for a BBQ so they could tell them all the news at the same time. To say that their family was happy would be an understatement Karen got teary eyes, Nathan said it was about time, but Haley and Brooke went crazy they both screamed and tackled Peyton in a hug that Lucas had to save her from. Brooke was asked to make the dress and said she was defiantly happy that they waited until after the twins were born before they got married because she didn't think she could fit Peyton's ass into a wedding dress.
The plans were made and it was decided that in 6 months Lucas and Peyton will wed. To the horror of Brooke, Karen and Haley- Lucas and Peyton joked that they would go and elope in Vegas considering that was where they met. But after several death glares and a threat of bodily harm to Lucas via Brooke they declared the previous statement a joke and that was the last hand Lucas had in planning the wedding.
The six months flew by for Lucas and Peyton who were not only raising twins but trying to plan a wedding, so when the time came for the blonde to walk down the aisle they couldn't be happier.
Peyton's dad came home for good, three months ago because now he had grandchildren to spoil, he also met Lucas and they immediately got on like a house on fire, after Lucas threatened to rake him to death.
Larry came home unannounced and he knocked on the door just as Peyton was on her way out- she had to go and get a final check up from the doctors. Larry said a quick hello to Peyton; she let him in the house and left the twins with him. Lucas came home from training expecting to see the house empty so he was quiet concerned when his front door was ajar and he could hear someone moving around in the kitchen, and there was no car out the front. He picked up a rake that was lying on the front porch and slowly walked into the house and through to the kitchen, that's when he sees a man standing over the sink with his head down. Lucas bangs the rake on the floor to grab the man's attention "who the hell are you?" Lucas asks trying to sound mean and tough; Larry just smiles and says "who the hell are you?"
Lucas is starting to get agitated and he says "I live here, now tell me who you are and why you are trespassing on my property."
"Oh, so you're Lucas Scott" Larry just smirks at his future son in law. The front door slams shut, and Peyton walks through the house screaming "Dad, where are you?"
Larry replies with "in the kitchen chicken." Larry then gives Lucas a knowing look as Peyton walks into the kitchen. "Oh, hey Luke, What are you doing with the rake in the house?"
Lucas goes all red and Larry says "Your fiancé was trying to rake me to death." Then Larry and Peyton start laughing at an embarrassed and red faced Lucas who just mumbles "I'm goanna put this back."
It's the morning of the wedding and Karen is looking after the twins whilst Larry is in with his daughter "Peyton, I am really happy that you have found Lucas, even though he did try to rake me to death. I just hope you know how proud both your mothers are of you. You are an amazing person Peyton Sawyer and don't you ever forget that." Larry then pulls Peyton into a hug and they walk out of the tent that was set up for her so she and Lucas could get married at a lake they found one day on the side of the road.
The wedding was beautiful and both Lucas and Peyton Promised to love cherish and honour each other for all the days of their lives; they then sealed the deal with a long, and love filled kiss. They had a small reception with 50 or so guests, at a tent set up on the lake around the corner from the ceremony- they sat down to dinner, said their speeches, cut the cake and then Lucas and Peyton shared their first dance as husband and wife. It was a memorable day for them because on that day Peyton Sawyer officially became a Scott.
They didn't go away for their honeymoon, they felt a bit weird about leaving the twins and not being close by, so Karen offered to watch them for the week after their wedding- so they still got to have a week of newly wedded bliss but their children were always close by- 3 doors down to be exact.
At nine months Nathan Keith Scott Says his first word "mamma" and almost an hour after that when Lucas is cuddling Sawyer- she opens her eyes and looks at her dad and says "mamma" as well- to say Lucas was a little disappointed that would be an understatement; there was no doubt that he was happy that they finally found their voices but he would have loved one of them to say his name. So Lucas spent the rest of the day with both babies in his lap trying to get them to say 'dada'. And when they did two days later Tears came to his eyes and he forgot that they said mama first, and that he had an awful day at practice with his team, and he spent the rest of the night focused on his beautiful wife and two amazing children; and that just made every other day a hell of a lot better.
When the twins turned one Peyton went back to work, she couldn't wait to start teaching her students again- as much as she loved her family she was excited to put a little bit of structure back into her life- and she always had fun flirting with Lucas whilst they were at school, she couldn't wait to get out of her mum clothes and start looking more like a yummy mummy as Lucas would put it, when the two of them walk back into School for the new School year. She also loved how when she introduced herself to her classes she said "my name is Mrs. Scott."
The funny thing was that when Peyton got back to School, Haley went on maternity leave, so that means it will be another year before they got to work together again. Haley however gave birth on her due date to a little boy who was dubbed James Lucas Scott. And to everyone's surprise he looks exactly like his uncle to.
It was another two years before Peyton found out she was Pregnant again, this time she found out the day her husband was coaching his team to win their first state championship. The first half of the game was close and stressful to say the least, and Lucas wasn't happy at all- he only held his temper in check because Nate, Sawyer and Jamie were sitting on the bench watching his every move. It was half time, and Peyton who was sitting in the stands could see how stressed her husband was getting so she made her way down onto the court before he disappeared into the locker room. She gave him a hug, told him to take a deep breath, she took his left hand into hers and put it on her stomach "win or lose tonight, your baby will always love you." Lucas looks at her with love in his eyes, and he says "are we..." Peyton just nods her head and says "yes" then the biggest smile graces Lucas Scott's face as he pulls his wife into his arms and gives her a long passionate kiss.
She shoes him away to go and inspire his team, and she has no idea what he said but the Ravens ended up winning the State Championship by five points at the buzzer.
Five years go by and Lucas and Peyton Scott have never been happier in their lives. Peyton loves being an art Teacher; and Lucas, well Lucas has coached the Ravens to a State Champion victory for five years in a row, and every year the feeling is exactly the same. Lucas and Peyton have a total of 5 children- Nathan Keith Scott, and Sawyer Elizabeth Scott who are age 7; William Larry Scott who is 4; and David Nicolas Scott who is 2 years old; and a surprise baby girl who is only 5 hours old.
Lucas and Peyton are sitting in the hospital bed cradling their surprise baby girl 'Anna Karen Scott' with the rest of their kids scattered around the room asleep, none of them wanted to go home and leave their new baby sister alone. Lucas leans down and places a small kiss on Peyton's forehead "I really love you, you know that. I don't think I could imagine my life without seeing your beautiful face every morning when I wake up and every night when you fall asleep in my arms. You're my whole world Peyton Elizabeth Sawyer, and I can't believe you changed mine in what was supposed to be a one night stand in Vegas at my sister in laws bachelorette party."
"It's Peyton Elizabeth Scott" Peyton says as she leans in and kisses her husband's lips.
