Chapter 12

Brooke slowly started to hear faint voices. She tried to open her eyes by they just wouldn't open. Her whole body hurt, she felt like she has been hit by a truck. Slowly Brooke gained more strength and started to open her eyes. She had to blink a few times to make her vision less foggy but the sight in front of her made her want to shut her eyes again. She couldn't believe it she was in pain, confused and on top of all that her ex –best friend and now soon to be ex-boyfriend were kissing right in front of her. She suddenly realized she didn't even know where she was. She quickly looked around and came to the conclusion she was at the hospital. Now she was angry. Brooke mustered up all her strength to say the next few words.

"Get the hell out"

Haley sighed school was finally over.

She grabbed all her books and made sure she had all of Lucas' stuff and headed over to Nathan's locker.

When she got there Nathan was putting books in his locker. She came up beside him,

"Hey I'm gonna go head over to the hospital now. You need anything?"

Nathan gave Haley a quick kiss.

"Nah I'm good I have to get to practice anyway. Tell Brooke I said hey and I will be over the minute practice ends."

Haley hugged Nathan

"Okay I will call you if there is any changes see you then."

Lucas pulled away from Peyton in shock. He didn't know what to say.

He whispered, "Peyton…"

When all of a sudden he was interrupted by a low raspy but stern voice saying,

"Get the hell out."

Lucas closed his eyes. He could not believe it. For an entire week he has been hoping and praying that Brooke would wake up so he could hear her voice again, she could not believe the timing. Was someone out to get him?

He came out of his thoughts when the statement was repeated just as softly but with a more demanding tone.

"Did you not hear me? I said get the hell out"

Lucas turned around ready to explain himself.

"Brooke, I…It wasn't like that..um listen…"

Brooke just weakly shook her head.

"No listen to me both of you just get the hell out!"

Brooke slowly fell back into the bed and Lucas noticed how much the yelling has taken out of her and his heart broke. He could not subject her to anymore pain so he slowly stood up making his way to the door.

"I am going to get a doctor Brooke, I will be right back."

Lucas turned towards Peyton who was silently watching the exchange the entire time. He gave her one look and they both stood up and left the room.

Brooke sighed happy and sad that they were gone. She did not want to see their faces any longer but she also didn't want to be in here alone. She doesn't even know why she is in here which makes her even more confused and hurt.

Once Lucas and Peyton left the room Lucas quickly turned around.

"What the hell was that Peyton!"

"Lucas you and I both know that we are meant to be together and so does Brooke she'll get over it once the shock disappears."

Lucas couldn't believe it.

"Are you mental! Peyton, I LOVE Brooke NOT you! Get that through your head. I can't believe you did this just leave."

Peyton was shocked. She was not expecting Lucas to respond this way.

"Lucas…"

"No Peyton just please leave, I have to go find Brooke's doctor."

Haley turned the corner into the hallway. She immediately saw Peyton.

"What the hell?"

Haley finally arrived at the hospital she didn't know traffic could be such a bitch right after school.

She pulled into the parking spot and grabbed Lucas' work. Haley entered Brooke's floor and started to head towards her room. When she turned the corner she could not believe who she saw.

"What the hell?"

Lucas turned towards Haley after he heard her voice. Peyton walked right by her mumbling something about leaving. This confused Haley, Peyton wasn't one to just get flustered and leave like that, but from the looks of the conversation her and Lucas were having explained a little bit. Lucas rushed up to Haley.

"Brooke's awake. I am going to go find her doctor."

Without even giving Haley a chance to respond he turned and left.

Haley couldn't believe it. What she has been hoping to happen for so long has finally come.

She realized she told Nathan she would tell him if anything changes so she quickly texted him not wanting to start a long phone conversation because she wanted to see Brooke right away.
