"Jake! This is Lucas. Get to the hospital right away. Its Peyton. She was shot. Hurry." Lucas practically yelled in the answering machine.

"Did you get a-hold of him?" Brooke asked as she paced back and forth. She really hated this hospital. Too many bad memories.

"I got the machine." Lucas said.

"Weren't you with him?" Brooke asked.

Lucas shook his head no. "It was just me and Nathan. I couldn't get a-hold of Jake."

"Oh." Brooke said.

"Should I go to the house and see if he's there?" Lucas asked.

"No. Don't leave me." Brooke walked over to him.

"I'm going to call Nathan." Lucas got up and walked away.

"Nathan? Peyton's been shot. I don't know how she is. They wont tell us anything. We need Jake to get here so he can find out, but he wont answer the phone. Will you go over there and see if he is home?" Lucas asked Nathan. "Ok I'll see you when you get here." He said into the phone.

Lucas walked back to Brooke.

"What did Nathan say? "

"He said he was going to go over there."

"Ok good."

A hour later and still no Jake. Nathan, Haley, and the girls were now there though. All waiting for someone to tell them whats going on. When finally Jake came running into the waiting room with Jenny in his arms.

"Where is she?" He asked franticly.

"We don't know. They wont tell us anything." Brooke told him.

He ran over to the nurse desk.

"I'm Jake Jagelski, Peyton Jagelski's husband. Where is she?" He asked the nurse sitting behind the desk.

She looked at the papers on the desk then looked up at Jake.

"She just got out of surgery. I'll go get the doctor to let him know you are here."

5 minutes later the doctor came out.

"Are you Mr. Jagelski?" He asked pointing at Jake.

Jake stood up to look the doctor square in his eyes. "Yes. Where is my wife? Is she ok?"

"She is fine now. She is still knocked out from the medicine. She should wake up in a hour or so."

"What was wrong?" Jake asked.

"She got shot in the spine. We had to do emergency surgery to remove the bullet. There is a slight change she will be paralyzed. I'm sorry to tell you."

Jake was on the verge of tears. "What about the baby?"

"The baby seems to be fine. But I'm just the surgeon. You'll have to wait until Peyton wakes up to talk to the OBGYN."

"Can I see her?" Jake asked.

"Yeah I'll have a nurse take you back."

"Thank you."


Stairway to heaven.
"And my spirit is crying for leaving..."
