Last Chapter! Hapy ending in the epilogue!
Chapter 25. Scott boy's come per two and Sawyers cry a lot.
Julian lay on his bed and stared to the ceiling. Mirror, Julian, Mirror, Julian. He thought as he looked to himself in the mirror on the ceiling.
He'd returned to LA, after the wedding, after… Brooke. "Brooke" He thought. As her name entered his thoughts for the 28th time that day for the 20th day in a row, his mind went back to that night. The night he'd brought her home, The night he'd kissed her, touched her. And the night, he pushed her away, putted clothes on her back, laid her down underneath the covers, and waited on the couch.
Yah there, He'd been waiting on the couch……
Julian sat on the couch, wondering if he did right. "Of course I did right, she's drunk, she doesn't know what she wants." He told himself.
He glanced at the closed door, closed for his own good, closed because she needed sleep, and he couldn't keep himself in line, if he'd be looking at her.
As he's thoughts when over what happened, she calling him back, kissing him, touching him… He closed his eyes, and tried to get rid of the thought, what seemed easier to say and actually do. As usual.
He could hear her mumble, he couldn't hear what exactly she tried to say, there was after all still that closed door in between.
Then unexpected, and not reaction prepared, the front door opened and Sam sneaked in. She was probably even more shocked than he was, she was after all trying to come in without being heard, that didn't work.
"Julian, geez, you scared the crap out of me!" Sam loudly whispered. "Shhh, Brooke's a sleep." He said.
"What are you doing here?" She asked. "I brought Brooke home, she's been drinking, I just stayed to make sure she's okay." He explained himself. "Right, well you can go I'm home" Sam whispered.
Julian had mumbled a few words as he got up and then said: "Okay, I guess I'm going then, make sure drinks plenty of water." and went the to front door, putted on his coat and opened the door.
When he wanted to pull the door close as he'd walked through itSam said: "You're a good guy Julian, she'd be happy to have you."
He smiled, said thank you and left.
When he stood out side he felt like he could finally breath again and thought: "She just doesn't know it yet." ………
So he retuned to LA two days later, two days he'd sit in his hotel room. Staring at his phone hoping it'd ring, it didn't. So he retuned to LA, where he'd stared to his phone the next 20 days.
"Pathetic" He wrote with his hand in the air, still staring at the ceiling. "Love Love Love" He repeated the word till, he realised he started to lose his sanity. He threw his phone through the room, it shattered into a million pieces.
"I hate Love" He said to himself.
"Luke can you take this, this has to go upstairs" Peyton said. She walked around telling Lucas what to do, because she could do anything herself, she was like two days away from her due date.
Still somehow it'd seemed to be such a good idea to move to their new house yesterday. Now the whole house was full of boxes and she was commanding Lucas, where to carry them.
"If you don't mind I'm stilling busy with your last order." Lucas said when came down the stairs. "I'm sorry, I wish I could help, then it would all go a lot faster." Peyton said.
She putted her arms around his neck as he was now standing in front of her. He placed his hands on her belly. "I know you want to help, you're like Haley, you prefer to do it all by you self." He said and kissed her. "Now sit down on that new couch, put your legs up, and let me do all the work. It's my house as well you" he placed another kiss on the lips and lifted her up. "Ahh, Luke!" She exclaimed. "Put me down before you drop me!"
"I won't drop you and by the way got you got heavy" He said and putted her down on the couch. "I did not" Peyton pouted.
"I didn't said it was a bad thing, the heavier you get, the bigger our son will be." Lucas said. "Uh yah, or our daughter smart ass!" Peyton exclaimed. "We're having a son I can feel it" Lucas said. "You mean the same feeling that told you that Lilly was going to be a boy?" Peyton joked.
"You're funny you lazy!" He said. "Ahh!" Peyton exclaimed. "You don't have to yell, was just a joke" Lucas said. "It's not that Luke" Her face turned white. "What, is something wrong?" Lucas asked worried. "No, I just think … My water just broke" Peyton said.
About fifteen minutes later Peyton was lying in a hospital bed, with Lucas sitting next to her.
Lucas opened his phone to message Haley what was going on. When he saw that Nathan sent him a message. She opened the message and then stared at the display and then said: "Hey, I'm going to get some coffee, be right back"
"Hey! Don't leave me here" Peyton called after him sounding anxious.
But he didn't even hear her. "LUKE!" she yelled, but then was interrupted by a contraction.
"Oww!!" She exclaimed.
Lucas ran through the halls of the hospital, till meeting Nathan in the waiting room. "Nate?" Lucas said. "Luke you got here fast I just sent you the message." Nathan said.
"I was already here" He replied. "Peyton too?" Nathan asked. "Yah, how's Haley?" He asked. "Like Haley, why do you think I'm here and not in there." Nathan said. "Right" Lucas chuckled.
"How's Peyton?" Nathan asked. "Scared, that's why I have to go back now, good luck" Lucas said. Nathan chuckled. "Good luck, to who's having a his child first" Nathan said.
"That's not fair, it's Haley's second round, but I have to go now, before Peyton comes to get me" Lucas said. Nathan chuckled.: " Good luck"
Lucas headed back for Peyton's room.
"P. ? are you okay?" He carefully asked as he looked around the corner, but then saw Brooke sitting at his spot.
"I don't want you here" Peyton said. "I'm sorry Luke but you just left! You gave you place away here" Brooke said.
"I was just checking on Nathan and Haley, Haley is here as well, to give birth" Lucas said. "I know Brooke told me" Peyton said. "You didn't, you just left!"
"I'm sorry Babe" He said and placed a kiss on the forehead. "What do you think of the name Sawyer?" He said. "I was more thinking about the name Anna, after my mother." Peyton said.
"Are you two talking about the same baby?" Brooke asked. "Yah, Luke is convinced that it's a boy. I am convinced it's a girl." Peyton explained.
"Well, at least you'll know for sure what it's name will be" Brooke said. Peyton and Lucas stared at her.
"If it's a boy Sawyer, if it's a girl Anna" Brooke explained. Then they both looked at her like "aha"
"Nathan!!" Haley shouted. "Yah, I'm here" Nathan said as speeded into her room. "Where did you go and where is Lucas, he'd be here by now." Haley said.
"Uhh, He is here." Nathan said. "Where?" She looked around the room. "Did I turn blind?"
Nathan chuckled. "You always had a blind spot for Luke" – "You're not fun- ahhh!!!" She was interrupted by a contraction.
He grabbed her hand, she turned in blue by squeezing. "WHERE is Lucas!" – "He's down the hall, but I want to remind you that I am your husband, and child's father" Nathan said.
"That's what you think. Why isn't he coming in?" Haley asked quickly before she'd be interrupted by a contraction.
"Uuh, Peyton is giving birth as well, like right now. I spoke to him, about fifteen minutes ago, and just now she went to the delivery room." Nathan said.
"What, Peyton too? I wanted to be there for her, it's all new, is Brooke there?" Haley asked worried for her friend.
"Yah, I can ask her to c-" Nathan was interrupted when Brooke came in. "Hey other mom." Brooke said.
"Hey, where is Jamie, I want to see him." Haley said. "Is in hall, left him with Skills, everyone is here, for you and Peyton. I thought I peak by, now Peyton went to the delivery room." Brooke said.
"Are you trying to, take my place as the godmother of that child, Brooke. Because I already talked to Lucas and Peyton and that place is already mine" Haley said.
"Yah, but Peyton thinks you just baled on her." Brooke said. "That's not true babe" Nathan said. "Lucas told her and apologised for you to Peyton. And Peyton apologies to you back"
"I'm so going to be that child's godmother" Haley said. "Off course you are Babe" Nathan replied.
Then he push Brooke outside and closed the door behind them and said to Brooke; "NEVER make Haley angry before she's to give birth. You got that?"
Brooke nodded. "Is she really that bad?" She asked. "Worse" Nathan assured her.
Nathan went to the waiting room while Brooke went back in. "Hey Jimmy Jam" He said calling for his son. "Daddy! Where's momma and the baby?" Jamie asked.
Nathan sat down and said: "The baby is not here yet, but you want to come see momma little man?" Nathan said.
"Yah, where she?" He asked. "The third room around the corner, go" Nathan said and then while Jamie ran away, he turned to the rest.
"I never thought I'd be so nerves" Nathan said. "Nathan, whether it's your first child or the 6th, it's always going to be scary." Karen said. "I don't think I want 6 children and after today neither does Haley." Nathan joked.
"But you go to Haley now, she needs you. Let me be nerves here, about becoming a grandmother, you be afraid of the lack of sleep you're going to have." Karen told him and smiled.
"Thanks, by the way how's Peyton doing?"
"Ahhhh!!!!" Peyton exclaimed. "It's it here yet?" She cried. "Not yet, one more push" The doctor said.
"I can't do this anymore" Peyton said desperate. "Of course you can babe, you can do this" Lucas said.
"Really? Wanna try?" Peyton threw a mean look at him. "Just breath, stay calm take your time" The doctor said.
Lucas carefully stroked her hair, held her hand, but kept his mouth shut.
"Are you ready Peyton, you have to, now final push" The doctor said.
Peyton nodded.
"AAAHHH!" She exclaimed. "yah here it's comes" The doctor said. "Here it is, well done Peyton." He said.
"What is it?" She asked out of breath. "You just gave birth to a beautiful little girl." He replied. "I told you!" Peyton said while the doctor handed her the baby.
"Mmh" Lucas mumbled a few words. Peyton didn't care to listen. She was totally in heaven with her little daughter.
"Yah, your daddy thought you'd be a boy, but you're not, no" She cooed to the baby. "Yah, you know the name Anna fits you beautifully."
Lucas sat next to her, no saying anything just watching them. "She looks like you" Lucas said then. Peyton looked at him and smiled. "I'm going to tell everyone, I'll be right back" He said gave her a kiss and got up.
Outside everyone got up as he walked into the waiting room. They all looked at him wanting to what he was going to say. "It's a girl" He said with a big smile.
Karen hugged him, and they all congratulate him. "I'm going back in now, I think we'll be out in a sec." He said and left.
He walked back in and saw Peyton, now lying in a hospital bed, rocking the little girl in her arms while singing her a lullaby. "Hey" He whispered. "Hey, come here, she's a sleep. She so beautiful." Peyton whispered.
"I know I told you she looked like you." He replied and approached the bed.
"Ready to go?" The nurse asked. "Yah, we're ready" Peyton whispered.
"Nathan. Lucas and Peyton just got a daughter" Deb said as she entered Haley's room. Haley was still not in the delivery room, and the fact it didn't go that fast annoyed her.
"Ha, so they did can you asked her how she did that that quick?" Haley asked. "Hales" Nathan said, and then turned to Deb. "That's really great, congratulate them for me okay?" He said. "You can go you're self, she's back in her room" Deb said.
"I will, thanks mom" He said. "Good luck Haley" She said and left.
Haley smiled "I'm not really mean, I'm just a little frustrated, I could've done a lot of useful things in the time I've been lying here, like teaching my students or play with my son."
She looked at Jamie who was sleeping next to her on the bed, with his head on her belly.
Nathan smiled an said: "I think that he'll like his new brother or sister."
"I think you're right, now go to Luke, he's your brother, congratulate them for me, will you?" She said.
"Of course babe be right back" He said.
At some place, any place, anywhere in the world, there could be a family celebrating birth. But this place, isn't just any place, this place is filled with love and history. A place where anyone would be happy to be a part of, to belong
A place called Tree Hill.
Tree Hill, a town where, murder, stalkers and crazy nannies, aren't exceptional. A town, the town of the Scott bothers and their family. A family where anyone would be happy to be a part of.
So you could say, that new born Anna Elizabeth Scott and new born Alan Davis Scott, are lucky little people, because these two baby's are the newest members of the Scott clan.
Anna Elizabeth Scott, Peyton Sawyer-Scott and Lucas Scott's daughter, was assumed to be one of the luckiest people on earth, by her parents, and so was Alan Davis Scott, Son of Haley James-Scott and Nathan Scott.
So their parents, threw a little party to celebrate the two new little lives….
Peyton Sawyer-Scott, had a few thing in her new life she had to get use to. Firstly, her new name and everything that new name had come from, being the second thing, her marriage, that wasn't so hard, it was just mostly the name, it didn't sound as good as just her own name.
Then the third thing was her so much bigger new house, there was a lot of space to fill, and to clean, what brings me to the forth thing her baby, if you just had a baby, cleaning a big house like that isn't easy, let me correct that, isn't possible. Yah, that baby was something, someone, she could get use to the least of all. She loved Anna, but she also loved sleep, and hadn't seen much it lately.
Still she loved her so she and Lucas bravely threw a party to celebrate her presents.
"Luke, can you watch Anna, please I have to pick up the cake, and if I don't get out of this house I won't make it to the party." Peyton said driven to insanity.
"Sure" He replied, kissed her on the forehead and then said: "You're doing great Peyton, give Anna to me, you go get that cake"
Peyton sighed and handed Lucas the baby. "Here you go, have fun"
She went to the kitchen to get her purse, walked back to Lucas, kissed him and Anna and then left.
"Nathan you have to stop playing old school hip hop when I'm pregnant, it's the second one that is only quiet when you play that damn noise." Haley said, when she entered the nursery.
"Be happy it sleeps, Lucas and Peyton's party is this afternoon." Nathan replied. "I know, Peyton already regrets it, and is wondering what she actually celebrating." Haley chuckled.
"May I remind you, that you weren't queen quiet and peaceful yourself when Jamie was just born." Nathan said.
Haley said in the chair a cross the room from where Nathan was sitting with Alan. "I know" She said as she made a little trip down memory lane.
Then Jamie entered the nursery and climb on her lap. "Momma, Did I sleep just as much as Alan when I was born?" Jamie asked. "Yah, even more, Alan is quite a cry baby" She said and smiled. "I like him" He said. "Good you're suppose to like you little brother." Haley said. "But uncle Lucas once told me that there was a time he didn't like Daddy" Jamie said. "How come he didn't?"
Haley glanced at Nathan who glanced back at her, neither of them new what to say to that. "Well, your dad and uncle Lucas didn't grow up together." Haley started. "And Uncle Lucas didn't like Nathan because daddy did grow up with Grandpa Dan and he didn't. You on the other hand, love your little brother a lot, and he loves you, now get your shoes, we've to go."
Nathan smiled as Jamie left the room. "You really know an answer to every thing don't you?" He said.
"Well, you could've helped me out with this one" Haley said. "Why, you were doing fine without me" Nathan said.
"Nathan, what are we suppose to tell him if he asked about Keith and Dan? Do we tell them that even though they did grow up together Dan did kill Keith?" Haley said worried.
"Grandpa Dan killed, Great uncle Keith?" Jamie said. Haley glanced at the little boy at the doorstep. For the first time in her life she had no idea what to tell her son. What to tell at all. She glanced at Nathan, while Jamie kept staring at her. "Momma?"
Nathan stood up, and putted the baby down. "Jamie come here" He said. Jamie sat on his lap while Nathan, tried to think of a way to tell him.
"You know we don't like Grandpa Dan, He's a bad man, and we told you he was dead because we wanted to protect you from him. He killed your great uncle Keith, because he was always jealous of Keith." Nathan started, carefully choosing his words
"That's why we want you to love and appreciate your little brother, and all your other family. We were all very much hurt by this, and we are now stronger as a family." Haley continued.
Haley sat on the floor next to the chair Nathan was sitting in. "Your mom is right, buddy. We tried to warn you for him, protect you." Nathan said.
"I feel sorry for Grandpa Dan, he's always saying that he regrets what he has done. Don't people deserve a second chance?" Jamie said even though he was mad at Dan himself.
Haley looked a little confused at her son. "Second chance?.." She wiped a tear of her cheek. "..Your Grandpa Dan had plenty second chances" Haley said with a tone of anger in her voice.
She knew he was too young to understand, but it made her angry somehow.
"That's enough Scott history for you for the next year buddy, go get nanny Deb" He said and when he'd left the nursery he sat down next to Haley and putted an arm around her pulled her towards him. She placed her face in his chest. "He's too young to understand" She sniffed.
Haley had seen little of her family from before she married Nathan, and she missed them. So a new born seemed the perfect excuse to invite them, she needed an excuse because Nathan wasn't her keen on her sisters, but other Taylor, Haley was. She hadn't invited Taylor, but somehow, if she invited Vivian or Quinn Taylor always found out, and insisted on coming. Luckily the last time she saw Taylor was when Jamie turned one.
Her parents she hadn't seen since Jamie's second birthday, so that was more than three years ago, she missed them. So now Alan was here, she'd invited them and her sisters,
unfortunately none of her brothers could make it, apparently their little sister wasn't important enough.
Nathan had something himself in mind. He planned on bringing his whole family together now Haley invited hers.
He's invited his Grandparents. He hadn't seen them since Keith funeral, and Lucas had never met his Grandparents, they hadn't come to Karen's afterwards.
So it was one big family reunion. There was just one thing, and that was that Lucas and Peyton didn't know, so Haley an Nathan were now on their way to take over the party.
Haley knocked on the door with Alan in her arms. "Coming!" She heard from the other side. Then the door opened.
"Hey Hales, you're a little early" Lucas said as he opened the door with Anna in his arms. "No we're not, we're coming to help you." She said and pointed at Nathan Jamie Brooke and Sam standing behind her. "Help?" He replied.
"Yah, We invited some more guests" Nathan said. "And what is more?" Lucas asked suspiciously. "hmm, seven" Haley said.
"Please tell me you didn't invited your sisters?" Lucas said while he let them in.
"Yes, she did, even Taylor" Nathan said. Lucas sighed "Great, Peyton is going to love it" Lucas said with dozens of sarcasm.
"That's why we're here to help." Brooke said and before he could answer they started to unpack boxes they'd brought.
Half an Hour later Peyton came home with the cake and walked unsuspecting into her kitchen where it was like crazy.
"What the hell?" She said as she saw the mess in her kitchen. "It's nothing in comparing to the back yard." Lucas said who was suddenly standing behind her.
"I don't think I want that." She replied. Lucas chuckled and putted his arms around her. "They're taking over the party, they invited more people." He said.
"More?" She asked surprised, considering she's invited already like twenty people.
On the other side of the kitchen Sam was searching through Brooke purse. Sam had told Brooke about Julian the next day, (The day after the wedding) what he did and she'd insisted that Brooke called him.
But Brooke being Brooke, she was stubborn and scared and she didn't. When he'd left she said it was good, that she didn't want him.
Sam had kept encouraging Brooke to call him and still she hadn't. Time for a change Sam had thought.
She was looking for Brookes cell phone. "Gotcha!" She exclaimed and then sneaked with the phone into the study.
She messaged Julian with Brookes phone "Meet me at my place tomorrow six pm sent any questions to Sam." Then she changed Julian's number in her own number, and sent Brooke a message with her own phone, it was something like : "Brooke, I'm coming to your house tomorrow house tomorrow 6.15 pm. Be there." Now Brooke had received a message from Julian, without him knowing and the other way around.
"Done" Sam thought and putted the phone back in Brooke purse.
All guests had arrived about an hour ago, this had caused some trouble, cause Lucas had almost slammed the door shut in the faces of his grandparents.
That was about an hour ago and after a lot back and forth Lucas had accepted his grandparents as his grandparents. So now he'd gained a pair of grandparents, you have this fun game called "Remember???"
You play it like this:
Grandfather said. "You know, when I first met you, Haley, at dinner, I thought you were just another of Nathan girl friends, like Dan used to have. I had never thought he'd marry you and that we'd be sitting here 8 years later with your two children."
"Well, neither did we and we agreed to let them get married, because, I said not to hurry on the grandchildren thing, and you didn't listen that for sure." Lydia replied.
Haley smiled: "I'd rather waited a couple of years as well, but uh I guess that's fate."
"Well hales no offense but everyone saw that one coming." Brooke said.
"There were also a lot of things neither one of us predicted." Nathan said.
"Like any of us had predicted, that when Keith asked Whitey to let me join the Ravens, we would be sitting here 8 years later. Like this. Remember our one on one game at the river court? If I had told you we'd be sitting here eight years later, you would have laughed at me." Lucas said.
"I laughed at you any way" Nathan said. "Well, you'd probably hit me if is told you I'd told you I'd marry Lucas." Peyton said. "Probably true." Nathan said.
"Good thing you didn't put up with that guy" Larry said. Peyton chuckled and glanced at her daughter, in her arms.
"If I was Haley I'd stayed far away from this town and stayed on rock tour." – "I know you would that's why I didn't, I'm nothing like you" Haley replied to Taylor.
"Well, Hales, if we're talking about thing we hadn't predict, you're definitely one of them." Vivian said.
"I mean, my always good behaving little sis, married and pregnant in high school, on rock tour with Chris Keller. Never"
"Yeah, I'd done it preferably without Chris Keller." Haley laughed.
"What!" Brooke exclaimed. Everyone looked at Brooke. "Uh sorry" Brooke said and putted her phone away.
Sam smiled. "Part one, succeeded." She thought.
Julian putted his phone back together, and sighed. This is pathetic like she would call after 20 days, but not after 19.
When he turned his phone on. He noticed the received message from Brooke.
He opened the message, he read it, he was speechless and then started the pact his bag.
Anyone, who would have seen him doing this, would have said that the text message was clearly important, but he was alone so there was one there to think that that text message was important.
The Next day had been a crazy day for Sam, she'd been planning Julian's return to Tree Hill and that wasn't as easy as she'd predicted.
She'd sent Brooke shopping with Peyton. She'd told Peyton what she was up to, and Peyton had been happy to help her. So she'd taken Brooke with the order not to let Brooke return before 6.15 PM
It was nearly 6 'o clock and Sam had decorated the place with candles. Curtains closed, light dimed. Peyton had advised her on the wine and tapas. Sam sat on the couch looking around. "I think this was it" She thought to herself hoping that it would work. Brooke had done so much for her, it was time for return a favour, she just didn't know she was doing her a favour with it.
When she packed her bag to leave the house she sent a text message to Julian that Brooke wasn't home jet but that the key was underneath the doormat. But as she opened the door she could hear him coming up.
So she left the key under the doormat and closed the door she decided to leave through her window, so she hadn't had to walk into Julian.
She went to her bedroom and closed the door. She heard Julian open the door. She tried opening the window and then noticed that Brooke had nailed it closed.
"Damn it I'm stuck here" Sam thought. She tried to hear what Julian was doing, but all the talking was going on inside his head.
From the outside he was quiet.
About fifteen minutes later Brooke came home.
"What are you doing here, why are you here" Brooke asked. "I don't know you asked me to come." Julian replied.
"Ai, did not saw that one coming" Sam thought.
"No, you just sent me that weird text." Brooke said. "I never asked you to come here"
"I've been waiting for you to call me ever since in left. I like you Brooke, a lot" Julian said.
"But WHY are you here, there is a reason I didn't call you" Brooke asked.
"You Brooke, your text." Julian said. "I never sent you a text." Brooke replied. "Yes you did" Julian said. "But that's not what matters, I love you, that's why I'm here"
"You What?" Brooke said. "I uhh I love" He repeated. "Not you don't we barely know each other." Brooke said.
"Brooke when I left LA 10 months ago, everyone there including my father thought I was going to Tree Hill for the girl in the book, Lucas' book. But I wasn't I came here because a wanted to turn Lucas' book into a movie. Although I never had to chance to tell that I wanted to, because of Peyton. I did in fact come here for that movie.
But looking back it turns out, did come here for the girl in the book, the other girl." Julian said.
Brooke smiled.
"Well, he's good with words" Sam thought and as the sound of kissing reached her ears, she thought. "but that's clearly not the only thing he's good at."
"Julian, ..." Brooke tried to make sense out of it all. But could find the words to asked for it.
"and now?" Brooke tried. "I don't know Brooke" He replied. "but, if neither one of us thought about this, then how come this place looks like this?"
She looked him in his eyes and he looked right back at her beautiful brown eyes, then they both said. "Sam"
