A/N: Its been awhile sorry about that…I can't update regularly like I used too. There is a lot going on so my other story will be on hold for now but I will be focusing on this more so I can finally finish it. Thank you for being patient with me.

Part 21

Defying the odds of death. Brooke Davis has been hanging on for the past five years. Doctors have informed Victoria that they're going to take her daughter off the machines. There is no more they could do but the good news about the whole situation the doctors believe she can breathe on her own. Peyton had her doubts but more than anything she wanted Brooke to wake up. Sierra surprised everyone when she finally decided to enter the room sitting by the bedside.

Meanwhile Lindsey and Haley are having their own problems to deal with. Against Lindsey's wishes Haley had went to see Lucas in prison.

"You know what save that for later I can't deal with you right now." Haley says irritated grabbing the keys off the counter. "You coming to the game or what?" She asked with a small smile on her face.

Lindsey nods her head wrapping her arms around Haley. "Come on lets go I'm sorry."

"Its okay we'll talk later."

Everything seemed okay from the outside but we had problems just like any other couple. I love Lindsey very much but I can't bare to further anything and have Brooke miss anymore than she already has.

Lindsey could tell something was wrong but it could wait. She leaned over only to be surprised when Haley parked the car getting on top of Lindsey.

"We've got time to kill so do you wanna?" Haley asked with a wink.

"Baby your so cute…you know when Brooke wakes up I have to thank her for teaching you that stuff you do." She says with a smirk.

Haley pretends to be upset smacking Lindsey on the arm. "Just for that your not getting any." She says sticking out her tongue getting out of the vehicle.

"Your so mean." She says following Haley inside the school.

Sierra held Brooke's hand in hers.

"The doctors are taking you off this crazy ugly machines sometime today…Peyton is really about that. I know you don't know me and I hope once you wake up you will want too. I know a lot about you though but its been five years now quit being such a stubborn ass and wake up already." She says hearing herself laugh. "you know I haven't laughed in a long time. Apparently I laugh like you, really Brooke you need to wake up…I want to know my mother!"

The rest of the time Sierra sat in silence. Peyton walked in putting her hand on the smaller girl's shoulders.

"Its time they said we could wait in the waiting room. Victoria went to go get some coffee, you like coffee right?" Sierra nods her head. "Good come on it'll be okay." She says with an encouraging smile.

Sierra takes one last look at Brooke. *I hope so…for everyone's sake.* She thought to herself.

~flashback~

One month after Brooke went into the coma.

Peyton and Haley had one too many to drink.

"You know Hales how come you never told Lins about you and Brooke?"

Haley spits out her drink." Whaaat?!…how the…how?!"

"So its true so when?"

"It was nothing really we were drunk. It didn't mean anything I swear."

"Uh huh you still haven't answered me?"

Haley pours herself another shot and drinks it. "A few weeks after Nathan died. For about six months we would get drunk and have sex no strings attached. She was contemplating what to do with her feelings for you and well I was confused about Lindsey. Peyton please don't be mad."

"I'm not its just that isn't you to do that. That's the past but I must ask you did you love her?"

"Of course but not as much as I love Lindsey. You know I really love her…we're moving to Charlotte."

"You know we can have our little thing nobody needs to know." Peyton says moving in closer. "I really need this"

Haley thinks about it. "I don't know…we're both drunk I just don't know if I shou…"

Peyton cuts her off with a kiss causing Haley to do the same. Everything just shut off.

~end of flashback~

"Mom?! Did you hear?" Jaime asked.

Haley nods her head shaking herself from the memory. "Oh what sweetie what did you say?"

"They're going to put me as point guard isn't that awesome. You think daddy would be proud?"

Haley smiles. "Of course um at the end of the basketball season how about we move back to Tree Hill?"

Lindsey looks at Haley questionably. "Do you think that's a good idea?"

"yes its time to go home."

As the doctors pull Brooke off the support. Every machine was going haywire. Finally they got her stabilized. Peyton was the first to go in.

"Well B. Davis its nice to see you without all those machines. You going to open up those beautiful eyes for me today or make any movement to know your still here?" Peyton asked looking wide eyes as she felt Brooke's hand squeeze hers.

"Peyton?" She whispers out weakly. "Is that you?"

To be continued…yes Brooke is awake. So I pulled twist and yes you will find out if Haley and Peyton really did hook up in that flashback. Things are going to come together because I'm going to be ending this story shortly. Sorry its taking me so long to update I shall have the next one up as soon as I can.
