A Bad Dream
Chapter 6 -
Lucas pressed the phone closer to his ear listening to her voice. She sounded so hurt. And it hurt him even more to know that it was he who hurt her. But then he heard it. It being her confession.
...That it's not his kid...
After he listened to the whole message he frowned and stuffed the phone back into his sweatshirt pocket.
"Who was that?" Peyton asked Lucas as he closed his cell phone with a look of confusion on his face.
"That was Brooke..." Lucas trailed off slowly still trying to process what he had just heard on the voice message.
Brooke is pregnant.
Brooke is pregnant and the kid's not Lucas'.
Brooke is pregnant and the kid belongs to some random.
"Are you okay, Lucas?"
"Yeah, I'm, uh, I'm fine."
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Brooke." Rachel sighed as she handed the crying brunette a tissue.
Her teary eyes looked up.
"I think you should tell him then...that it's his."
"I can't...It's over...it's too late."
"Well...okay look. I really am in no position to say this since I don't know what you're feeling like considering I've never been in this position before but...Brooke, you're being selfish."
"Excuse me? You're right, you have no position to say that!"
"Calm down. But look what you're doing. What about Haley? Nathan? And I know you and Peyton aren't friends anymore but she still cares about you. They all care about you. And you know what? What about Lucas? I know about everything that's happened in the past between you two but come on, Brooke. It's his kid. And I know you're scared about falling for him again because of what recently happened but you're pregnant with his child Brooke and you have to understand-."
"Understand? I think you don't understand. 'Cause here you are telling me how selfish I'm being about this when you have no idea what the hell I'm going through. So maybe you should just mind your own business. Goodbye, Rachel." Brooke picked up her purse and stormed off while the redhead rolled her eyes.
Brooke was screwing up her life.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
"Peyton, this Ian person is kinda creepy. He's replied to all of your podcasts. You sure you don't have a stalker?"
"Oh shut up." She giggled as Lucas smirked back.
"Hey Peyton?" He then turned on a serious face.
"I'm sorry." He lightly touched her hand.
"For what?"
"For everything. This whole thing with the two of us and Brooke. If I hadn't opened my mouth about the kiss you two would've probably been fine again and none of this would have happened. I mean not the pregnancy part but ya know. The two of you would have been fine."
"Oh, I hardly doubt that. I think I really messed up this time. But...I can't help how I feel..." She trailed off hoping he'd get what that meant. And she guessed he did when he leaned in and kissed her. As the kiss started getting deeper she pulled them apart.
"My dad...he's downstairs."
"How about we go to my place? My mom's at the café."
"Perfect." She said as he took her hand in his.

Rachel was long gone as Brooke sat studying her chipped nail- polished nails.
Maybe Rachel was right. Maybe Brooke was being selfish. It was one thing if the baby actually was some random dude's. But this wasn't the case. It wasn't just some guy's. It was the guy's baby. But not anymore. Lucas couldn't be her guy anymore. They both screwed up too much. They obviously can't work together.
"Flight 68 to Los Angeles California now boarding first class."
In a few minutes she would be called. And that would be it. No more Tree Hill.
Her row was then called. She glanced at the gate a few times. Was this really what she wanted? To live her future life in a lie and only have Rachel know that the kid's actually Lucas'.
No, she shook her head. She can't go through with this. She'd have to tell him the truth.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
After waiting for an hour to get her luggage off the plane- pissing several people off in the process since that delayed the flight- she finally managed to hail down a cab.
She fidgeted with her hands the whole ride to his house. How was she going to tell him that she lied over the phone? Would he even believe her?
She quickly tossed money in the drivers direction as she hauled her bags up to his back door which lead directly into his bedroom. She saw the light on and without hesitation opened the door.
She was not prepared for what she saw.
Right in front of her were Lucas and Peyton. Tangled in his bed sheets. A sleeping Peyton resting on a drowsy Lucas' shoulder.
Lucas jumped out of his sleepy state upon hearing his door slam close behind Brooke. She just stood there shocked.
"Brooke...?"
"I...um...I'm sorry." She took her teary eyes off of them.
"Brooke wait-."
"I'm gonna go. You just um...yeah..." She swiftly turned on her heel and pulled her bags with her.
As the door slammed shut behind her she took a deep breath and used her free hand to wipe her wet eyes.
This was definitely not how she pictured her night to turn out.
