CHAPTER 35

Haley and Jamie were going to their house , while Peyton went to her record label to take some paper work to do at home when her cell phone rang…

PEYTON: Yeah…
LUCAS: Hey… Umm… where are you?
PEYTON: Oh I am at the label…
LUCAS: Are you going to be late?
PEYTON: No… I just need to take some stuff and I will head back home…
LUCAS: Oh… ok…
PEYTON: Is something wrong?
LUCAS: No… I just need to talk to you…
PEYTON: About what?
LUCAS: About..
PEYTON: (interrupting Lucas) Luke I have to hang up cause someone is calling me at the other line… see you later…

Answers the other line…

PEYTON: Yeah…
CALLER: Are you Peyton Sawyer?
PEYTON: Yeah… Who am I speaking to?
CALLER: I call from Tree Hill Hospital…

When Peyton heard it she freaked out…

CALLER: Do you know someone called Brooke Davis?
PEYTON: (really worried) Yeah, she's my best friend…
CALLER: I need you to come over here…
PEYTON: What happened to her?
CALLER: I don't know, they just told me to call you…
PEYTON: Thanks…

Peyton hung up her phone… She took her baby girl and run to her comet…

Julian was still wandering round Tree Hill thinking of what he was going to do now… where he should go… how he was supposed to live without Brooke when his phone cut off his thoughts… he looked at the screen and saw the name "Peyton"… He didn't want to talk to anyone… and thinking that Peyton might knew what happened last night between him and Brooke or between Lucas and Brooke made him even more not to want to talk to her, but something inside him told him to answer the phone…

JULIAN: Hey Peyt…
PEYTON: (shaking voice) Julian…
JULIAN: (concerned about his friend) Hey… what happened?
PEYTON: You have to come to the hospital…
JULIAN: Peyton are you ok? (now he was really worried about her)
PEYTON: It's not me Julian…(she had knot in her throat) Brooke…

Since then Julian couldn't hear anything else… his world was falling apart… or so he thought…

JULIAN: (screaming) Which hospital Peyton?
PEYTON: Tree Hill Hospital..

Julian hung up right away and run to the road to stop a Taxi that was passing by…

Tree Hill Hospital…

Peyton was in the waiting room… her daughter was asleep in her arms… she saw Julian running to where she was…

JULIAN: ( out of breath) How is she?
PEYTON: I don't know… (tears in her eyes)
JULIAN: What happened to her?
PEYTON: I don't know… I was at the label and they called me from here to tell me that Brooke was here… I came here right away… they just told me that a woman found her in her store unconscious and bleeding… she gave them my number…
JULIAN: The baby?
PEYTON: I don't know… the doctor hasn't come out yet…

Peyton heard her cell phone ringing…

PEYTON: Hello?
LUCAS: God Peyton… where are you? You told me that you wouldn't be late and you are…
PEYTON: I am sorry Luke…(almost crying at the thought that Brooke was hurting)
LUCAS: (knowing too good Peyton to not realize that something was wrong) Peyt… what's the matter?
PEYTON: I am in the hospital… something happened to Brooke…

Naley house

Nathan was watching TV, when Haley and Jamie returned from their walk…

JAMIE: Hey daddy…
NATHAN: Hey son… who was your morning with mommy and aunt Peyton…
JAMIE: Great… Anna is really sweet…
NATHAN: Who is Anna?
JAMIE: My cousin… Aunt Peyton told me that they are going to name the baby after her mother…
HALEY: Jamie… could you go upstairs for a while…
JAMIE: Ok…
NATHAN: (when Jamie wasn't somewhere to be seen) What does that mean?
HALEY: Where was Lucas yesterday night?
NATHAN: Ugh… If I tell you, you will be really mad…
HALEY: Wow… you are freaking me out Nate…explain…
NATHAN: Brooke called yesterday night at Luke's house, she was worrying about Julian… he wasn't home… and since Peyton wasn't home Lucas decided to go and wait with her till Julian came back… When he went there he found a drunk Julian yelling at Brooke… He was speaking to her like she was a slut… then he left… Lucas was confronting her… and they came really close and he kissed her…
HALEY: WHAT?
NATHAN: Yeah…
HALEY: God… he s unfixable… Does Peyton and Julian know? What did Brooke do?
NATHAN: I don't think they know… and Brooke slapped him…
HALEY: God… Brooke must be a mess…
NATHAN: Lucas was too…
HALEY: Right now I don't care about this a**hole… I'll call Brooke…

But before Haley could do anything else the phone rang… since it was in front of Nathan he answered…

NATHAN: Hello… WHAT? Ok… we are coming…

Nathan was really shocked…

HALEY: (concerned about her husband) Who was it Nate? What happened?
NATHAN: It was Luke… Brooke… she is in hospital…

Tree Hill Hospital…

Julian was pacing on the corridor when he saw Lucas coming… he didn't talk to him…

LUCAS: Peyton… how is she…?
PEYTON: We don't know… they don't tell us anything…

Just then Nathan and Haley came…

NATHAN: (talking to Julian) How is she?
JULIAN: They don't know…
HALEY: Julian I am sorry… (hugs him)

After a while…

LUCAS: Haley… why aren't you talking to me?
HALEY: How dare you ask Luke? You told me you wouldn't do anything stupid but you did…
LUCAS: Let me explain Hales…
HALEY: Not now Luke… Brooke is there and I am to pissed to talk to you…

Julian was still pacing impatiently when he saw a nurse… he run to her…

JULIAN: How is she doing?
NURSE: I don't know…
JULIAN: How can you tell me you don't know ( yelling)… my fiancée and my child are in there and you don't know how they are doing…? Are you kidding me? Where is the doctor?

Nathan run to him and pulled him away… he mouthed an "I am sorry" to the nurse and she send him an understanding look…

Julian was now looking out of the window… he had some tears in his eyes…

HALEY: (touching his shoulder) Hey…
JULIAN: Why are they not telling us what is going on Haley… What if she doesn't make it…? What if the baby..? It 's my fault Haley… I shouldn't have talked to her like that yesterday… I shouldn't have left her alone…
HALEY: It 's not your fault Julian… Things like these happen…She is going to be ok… Brooke is a fighter… she would never allow something to happen to her baby… she is strong… (she hugged him)

Just then the doctor came out to the waiting room… Everyone run to where he was standing…

JULIAN: How is she and the baby?
