Ok. So I know the last chapter was called "The calm before the storm." Well the storm is coming quite yet so to speak. But I asure you there will be lots of drama coming your way! --->>BRITTANY
Nathan went to look for Lucas so he could talk some sense into him. It wasn't really that hard to find him. Nathan knew where he'd be. The river court. That's they always went when they needed to think or blow off steam. When he got there he saw Lucas laying down on the black top. Basketball in hand. He was tossing it up and down.
"Hey man." Nathan said.
Lucas jumped a little when he heard a voice. He got up and turned to look at Nathan. "Hey" He said sourly.
"Look Luke I know about Brooke. And I have to say you are acting really stupid."
"I'm sorry if finding out I'm going to be a father freaked me out." He walked over to the bleachers and sat.
"Look do you think I didn't freak out too? I was a mess Lucas! I didn't think that I really wanted to be in the kids life until you called me and told me my mom was drunk. When I saw her I though about how I wanted my kids to have a better life than that." He walked over to Lucas and sat down. "Don't you want to be in your kids life more than Dan was in yours?"
Lucas nodded. "Its just so hard right now. Me and Brooke just got back together. We aren't out of college yet. I'm just not ready to be a father." Lucas moved his glance from his brother to the ground.
"You think I'm ready to be a father? Cause I'm not. It totally scares me. But when I think about my little girls coming into the world I cant wait."
"Nate I just cant be a father."
Nathan stood up. "Fine Luke if you are going to do that to Brooke. Whatever. That's your problem. Don't be man." He started to walk away.
"Nathan!" Lucas walked over to his brother. "I'm just so scared." He said as he started to tear up. Nathan pulled him into a hug.
"Its gonna be alright man. I promise." Nathan pulled away. "Just go talk to "Brooke. Make things better."
Nathan and Lucas went back to the apartment. Nathan told Haley that they should leave for a while so Lucas could talk to Brooke. So they went out for some ice cream. Lucas walked back to Brookes room and knocked. "Pretty girl, can I come in. So we can talk?" Brooke opened the door. She didn't look very happy. He could tell she had been crying. She could tell that he had been too. They sat down on the bed. "Brooke. I'm sorry. I was being stupid. And I was scared. But whatever you want I want."
"Luke you don't think that I'm scared? Cause I'm terrified."
"Pretty girl come here." He said with his arms open.
"Did you mean what you said?"
"Huh?"
"About wanting whatever I want?"
Lucas nodded.
"I want this baby."
"I do too Pretty girl." He said planting a kiss on her head. "I was just stupid before."
"Yea you were." She said with a little chuckle. She put her hand on her stomach. "I cant believe we are going to be parents."
Lucas put his hand on her stomach too. Brooke smiled. "I know it seems crazy."
Then Brooke smile faded. "Lucas! I'm gonna be fat!!!"
