Brooke woke up in a start sweat coming off of her forehead, she was breathing heavily and almost gasping after the nightmare she had just had. Nathan sat up and turned towards Brooke watching as she tried to calm down though her chest was still heaving up and down. He put his hand on her shoulder startling her and she jumped a little from her spot on the bed.

"What's wrong?" He asked checking the clock making sure it was really 2 in the morning.

"Let's get married."

"We are getting married."

"No today, right now."

"Are you feeling okay?" He asked putting a hand to her forehead making sure she wasn't suffering from a fever.

"I'm feeling fine, I just wanna get married today."

"Can I ask why all of a sudden you want to get married?"

"Why wait and spend a ton of money when we can do it now cheaper?"

"Brooke what's wrong you're scaring me?" Nathan turned her slightly so she was looking at him, he could see the fear and determination mixed in her eyes.

"Nothing's wrong Nathan." She replied looking at the ground so he didn't hear her voice shake with sadness. Her nightmare really had her scared that she was going to lose Nathan to Haley right before the baby was to be born and then Haley got Nathan to take her baby away from her. She didn't want to give Haley a chance to take Nathan away from her and she wasn't about to tell Nathan about her dream because he would just wave it off and tell her she had nothing to worry about when she knew deep down that she did have something to worry about.

She got up in frustration and stormed out of the bedroom while Nathan just there sat puzzled on the bed for a few more moments before going after her. He hoped that it was just her hormones going out of whack that were making her mad and not her actually being mad at him.

"Brooke what's going on?" She turned around him the fire burning in her eyes.

"I just want to get married today and you're basically saying that you don't want to ever marry me!" She screamed slamming her hand on the counter.

"I didn't say that! I just asked what was wrong with you and you're twisting my words around." He was trying to remain calm and not send her into premature labor or something.

"You didn't say it but you implied it!" She hissed stepping closer to him the venom dripping with each word she spoke. Nathan just stood there for a few seconds taking in her pissed off mood trying to figure out the best way to end their fight.

"I do wanna marry you Brooke more than anything I just don't want you regretting it later on. I'm just asking if you're really sure that you wanna get married today." He hoped that the calmness in his voice was getting through to her, she wasn't supposed to be stressed and he didn't want her hurting herself.

"You're just marrying me because I'm carrying your baby and you know it, you're hoping for an easy out so you don't have to put up with me!" She screamed yet again storming away from him into the living room. Now Nathan had to admit he was pissed.

"I'm not looking for an easy out and you know that. I can't believe you don't think that I don't wanna marry you!" He screamed following after her. "What's going on with you?" He asked a few steps away from her because this fight was really bugging him. He didn't know where she was getting the stuff she was throwing at him it was like she was trying to get rid of him.

"Just go be with Haley like you want to!" She finally whispered the tears falling down her face as she walked to the bedroom, she threw his backpack at him and told him to leave.

He left knowing that both of the them had to calm down and maybe later after school he would try to talk to her because he would be damned if he was going to let her push him away. He sighed as he pulled out of the parking lot and drove off for his parent's house hoping that his mom wasn't home, he didn't feel like explaining what had happened to her. He opened the front door of his parent's house and the lights instantly went on and his mom was standing in the entry way to the kitchen a baseball bat in her hands. "Nathan what are you doing here at 3 in the morning?" She asked putting the baseball bat away and standing in front of him.

"Can I stay here tonight?"

"What happened?" She asked the concern flooding her voice, it made Nathan feel better when he talked to his mom.

"Brooke and I got into a fight and she told me to go be with Haley like I wanted to. I don't know what to do it's like she's pushing me away." He put his head in his hands as he sat on the stairs.

"Nathan she's just scared." Deb replied rubbing his back softly, she didn't like seeing her son hurt especially over a pregnancy fight, everyone knew that fights during pregnancy were just because of the hormones.

"She didn't seem scared when she was screaming at me." Nathan rubbed his head trying to think straight, he was so tired.

"Nate listen to me she's just going through this phase that you're gonna leave her and she thinks if she pushes you away it would hurt as bad."

"Are you serious?"

"Yes Nathan I'm serious I went through it with your father."

"So it'll all just blow over?"

"No you actually have to talk to her and make sure she knows that you're not going anywhere."

"I'll do that later but is it okay if I sleep here till school?" Deb nodded and Nathan jogged up the stairs hoping to catch a little sleep before heading to school in 3 hours.

Nathan woke up around 8:30 and realized that he missed 2 classes already but still rushed to school hoping to see Brooke and talk to her. When he finally got to school almost 20 minutes later he rushed up to Peyton out of breath from running all over school looking for her.

"Peyton," He started trying to catch his breath. "Where's Brooke?"

"I thought she was with you."

"What do you mean?"

"She didn't come to school and when I found out you weren't here I assumed you guys were together."

"Did she call you this morning?"

"No why?"

"No reason I just really need to talk to her." Just then Peyton's cell rang and Brooke's numbered flashed across the screen.

"Do you wanna talk to her?"

"No I can't do it over the phone just answer it, do you know where Luke is?" She pointed over at Luke's locker and Nathan smiled before jogging over to catch up with Luke.

"Hello?"

"Peyton I did something really stupid!" Brooke wailed into the phone.

"What's wrong Brooke?"

"Nathan and I got into a fight and I kicked him out and now he's never gonna come back!" She sobbed and a light went off in Peyton's head.

"It's okay Brooke he'll come back I promise."

"No he's probably hooking up with Haley right now."

"Brooke you need to get that out of your head right now, Nathan's done with Haley and he only wants to be with you." Peyton shook her head at Brooke's insane theory that Nathan was going to leave her, she had to resist the urge to laugh at Brooke's foolishness.

"How can you be so sure?"

"I got the broody Scott remember?" Both girls couldn't help but giggle a little and Brooke felt a little better.

"Yeah I guess you're right."

"I am right now you go to sleep because all this stress can't be good for you. I'll stop by after school."

"Okay, thanks Peyton."

"Don't mention it." She hung up and went off in search of Nathan. She was going to get to the bottom of their fight even if it was the last thing she did.
