Peyton headed for the door. Brooke stood in front of it.
"I don't want to see you here again."
"Don't worry, you won't." Peyton replied grabbing Luke's hand and pushing
past Brooke.
She took on last look at Lucas who was standing in the hallway, cringed and
left. Brooke gracefully slammed the door behind her. Peyton fell against
the seat of car and cried.
"Mommy who was that?" Luke asked.
"Your dad sweetie."
"If he's my dad why was he yelling at us?"
"He wasn't yelling at you, he was yelling at me. For not telling him about
you."
"Oh...can we go play basketball? Grandpa took me yesterday."
"Sure."
"Really is Luke's son." Peyton thought as she started up the car.
They drove to the court and Luke got his ball out of the car.
"Can you play for a minute alone while I call Grandpa?" Peyton asked.
"Okay." Luke replied before heading down the steps.
They was a man playing. The guy shot and swished.
"Wow your really good." Luke called.
Then man turned around it was Lucas.
"Thanks little man." Lucas said.
"LUKE!" Peyton yelled from where the car was parked.
"What?" Luke asked turning to see Peyton running towards him.
"Let's go." Peyton said grabbing Luke's hand.
"No Mommy I don't want too...I want to play." Luke whined.
"Peyton it's fine, just let him play." Lucas said.
"I thought you didn't want to see me ever again? Hmm... If we stay are you
going to leave?" Peyton asked.
"No...I need to clear my head." Lucas replied.
"About us?' Peyton said holding Luke in front of her.
"No about Brooke. She's pregnant. That's why she got so upset about what
you told us." Lucas explained.
"It all makes sense now." Peyton said.
"Yea, I don't really want to have to be mad at you. Okay I understand that
you were scared. I mean god we were only 18. I was scared shi..."
"Luke..."
"Sorry. I was scared too. I just wished you had told me the truth and not
waited for four years. But if I see you I'm goanna be on a bad side with
Brooke and I don't want that. But I do want to see Luke...and so does
Brooke." Lucas explained.
"Sorry Lucas I can't let you do that. Now come on Luke let's go." Peyton
said before picking up Luke and walking away.
Lucas walked into his house. Brooke walked into the room. "Are you okay?" Lucas asked. "No I just threw up breakfast...how was your little outing?" Brooke asked. "Fine...I saw Peyton." Brooke rolled her eyes. "Don't do that and just listen. I told her we didn't want to see her but we did want to see Luke. Just liked we talked about." "And what'd she say?" "That there was no chance in hell." "Whatever. We have our own baby to see. I have a doctor's appointment in two days. Are you going to come?" Brooke asked. "Wouldn't miss it." Lucas said with a smile.
Peyton sat in her car and cried. "Mommy what's wrong?" Luke asked. "Nothing Luke. I'm fine. Do you mind staying with Grandpa again tonight?" "It's fine mommy I like it at Grandpa's." Peyton drove to her dad's house. "Thanks dad." She called from the car as Luke ran into the house. Then she drove off.
She headed down the interstate towards New York. A few hours later she stopped in front of her apartment building. "Ahola Peyton. Where's Luke?" Her neighbor Josephine called. "Staying with my dad." Peyton replied. "In Tree Hill?" "Yea..." "When are you going to go get him?" "I don't know."
A Few Days Later "Hey Luke, when did your mom say she would be back?" Larry called from the kitchen. "I don't know." Luke called from the living room where he was drawing. Larry grabbed the phone off the wall and dialed Lucas's number. "Lucas hi it's Larry, Peyton's dad." "Hi Larry." "I was just wondering if you have heard from Peyton?" Larry asked. "No not since the other day when she stopped by over here." "Well she left that day, and she left Luke here. I tried calling her phone but it's disconnected." "Wow, so she just disappeared?" "Yea and I'm supposed to leave for a trip tonight and don't know what to do with Luke." "Me and Brooke will bring him over. Just drop him off when you need too." "Thanks Lucas." Larry said hanging up.
"Who was on the phone?" Brooke asked. "Larry, Peyton's dad." Lucas replied. "What'd he want?" "Peyton's disappeared. He can't get a hold of her and he has to go on a trip tonight. So I said we would watch Luke." "You mean she just left Luke with her dad?" "Obviously." Doorbell rings Lucas opens the door. "Hi Lucas thanks for doing this for me." Larry greeted. "No problem. Hi Luke." Lucas said. "He's a little shy." Larry said. Luke walked into the house. "I'll come get him when I come back. And I've left a note at my house to tell Peyton where he is in case she comes back before I do." "And what if she doesn't?' Lucas asked. "Then I guess I'll have a permanent grandson." Larry replied leaving the house.
Lucas stood next to Luke. "So what are you into?" Lucas asked. "Basketball and drawing." Luke replied. "Does that mean you want to go to the river court tomorrow?" "Sure."
Peyton sat at her dining room table. "So when are you going to get Luke?" Josephine asked. "I don't know...I just can't handle having to watch him anymore. My life is falling apart." "SO you're just going to leave him with your dad?" "I didn't say it was a sane decision. I'm goanna miss the little guy like crazy. But I can't take care of him!" "And why not?" "Because I just can't. Every night when were just sitting here at home I think about driving my car off a bridge." (By Arie) ............................ Please read and review. Tardychick06
