Words Aren't Enough

Chapter 25

Sometime Later

Haley felt herself grow more tired by the minute. This visit with Dan, Deb, and her newborn daughter was taking a toll on her. She played nice for as long as possible and she was over it.

"Visiting hours are going to be over pretty soon. The two of you should get going. Lydia is asleep and i've had a long day. Jamie is going to stay here with me." Haley said.

The couple looked to each other then back at her.

"We already told Jamie that he could spend the night with us." Dan said.

"Plus you won't have the time or energy to deal with him. Now that there is a new baby in the picture." Deb said.

Haley felt this wave of frustration wash over. They always did this making plans with her son without asking her.

"He's 5 dollars the vending machines are right out the door. You go on and get some snacks for us to eat on the ride over to our house." Dan said.

Once Jamie left the hospital room. The couple turned to Haley.

"There was no need to send Jamie away. The only people leaving should be the both of you. I invited you here for Jamie's sake. As far as i'm concerned i never want to see either of you again. But of course this impending custody case is hanging over my head." Haley said.

"It's clear to anyone who looks into you're background. That you are not mentally and emotionally stable enough to handle being a mother of two kids. Alone. Nathan always wanted a large family. But he could never have that. Because of you're mental instablity. Having to be put into a mental instution after multiple breakdowns." Dan said.

Haley stared back at him. "Deb trying to kill you by setting you're dealership on fire. You almost killing Keith and Lucas. And Deb you're history of addiction issues. If you want me to take it there i will. Or we can drop this and move on." She said.

Brooke laid her head on his chest. Listening to his heartbeat.

"I want to get married as soon as possible. A Private, personal cermony." Brooke said.

Lucas looked up at her. A warm smile on his face.

"We don't have to rush it. I want you to have the wedding of you're dreams that won't happen overnight." He said.

Brooke lifted her head and looked back at him.

"I'm pregnant." She revealed.

Lucas eyes went wide. "I didn't think i could love you more then i do right now. This is incredible. A miracle." He said.

Brooke blinked back the tears that were filling in her eyes.

She had finally had everything she ever wanted.
