Chapter 2. This chapter is kinda short and leaves a lot of questions. LOL… Cliffhanger hahaha I also wanted to show Brooke and Lucas as more "parents" in this chapter because I didn't really get to do that last chapter. Ok this is the last chapter for like a week because I am going out of town! LOL so I probably wont get around to writing… so I just wanted to let you guys know it will probably be next Saturday before I get another Chapter up. So SORRY. Thank you all so much for all the reviews! I don't think I have ever gotten that many reviews for one chapter! It has inspired me.

Like I said… it is SO hard to write this… just having Brooke and Lucas be almost 30 is about to kill me! Hahaha. So the way I fix it is when I write I just imagine they are 20, it helps! LOL.

Another thing! Some reviewers said that they thought Brooke should have another baby… LOL I totally wasn't even thinking about that. All the baby stuff I was saying was just to get the point across that Madison was the baby. But when I started thinking about it, Brooke being pregnant would be a nice plot twist… lots of drama and tension, maybe something that could happen about ½ way through the story. Then again that would be 4 kids… LOL. Plus good lord I would have to come up with another name… and I have the most trouble naming these people! So I am leaving it up to you, my loyal reviewers to vote on it. I personally don't care either way. If it did happen I probably wouldn't focus on it as much as I did when she was pregnant with Emma and Austin since I am now dealing with like 4 characters story lines instead of too. But it would be something to keep Brooke and Lucas busy! Anyway I need to know soon so I can work it into the story so please leave your vote in your review. Majority wins.

"Lucas, pinch me" Brooke giggled rolling over to Lucas who was asleep snoring and hogging the bed

"Why?"

"Because it's 12:00 and all of our children are sleeping… I want to make sure I'm not dreaming"

"You're not… but I was" Lucas whined rolling back over to get back to sleep

"Was it good?"

"Yes…"

"Was I in it?" Brooke asked giving up on sleeping and deciding to keep Lucas up with her

"Of course"

"What was I wearing?"

"Nothing…" Lucas mumbled

"Ok, better question… what were you wearing"

"Nothing"

"I like this dream broody" Brooke giggled

"I'm sure you do… what's wrong?" Lucas asked giving up on sleep since Brooke obviously wasn't going to let him. They hadn't slept well in 13 years… this was their chance and Brooke wasn't jumping at it, which told him something was defiantly bothering her

"Its strange not having Maddie up under us… Do you think she's still breathing?"

"She was probably too tired to get up. Emmy and Austin wore her out after school"

"Yea, probably" Brooke signed laying her head on Lucas's chest. This was just yet another sign that her babies were growing up and not needing her anymore and it depressed her greatly

"Brooke…"

"What?"

"You miss her don't you?" Lucas asked running his fingers through her soft auburn hair

"What? No…"

"After all that complaining about her sleeping in her own bed, when she finally does you can't sleep"

"She keeps we warm" Brooke giggled as she played with his fingers

"I knew it! You miss her"

"Shut up… You miss her too"

"Maybe… but now I have you all to myself" Lucas smiled pulling Brook closer to kiss her

"I guess dreams do come true"

"And if she comes in?" Brooke asked pressing her forehead against his

"We tell her to go to her bed"

"You'll do it, I'm not being the bad guy"

"Mommy" Madison cried from the door

"I knew this wouldn't last…"

"What's wrong Maddie? Did the storm scare you?"

"I-I had a bad dreeam" Maddie cried in her squeaky voice

"About what?"

"Chickiens"

"Come on… Mommy and I saved you a spot" Lucas smiled helping the little girl into the bed

"Ha! I knew you couldn't do it… We'll tell her to go to her bed my ass!" Brooke giggled kissing Maddie on the forehead.

"Look at those eyes… you know I can't say know to them, tell me about your dream, ladybug"

"Daddy! There was mean chickens!" Maddie cried grabbing onto Lucas's arm

"That's ok… we still have 2 hours tomorrow while Haley takes her to Gymnastics with Nate"

"Mom" Emma whispered from the doorway

"What is it Emmy"

"Are we having a tornado or something?"

"No…" Lucas laughed looking outside at the light streaks of lightning

"Oh… ok, I'll go back to bed then"

"Night"

"Are you sure we aren't?" Emma asked one last time quietly

"Come on Emmy… there's room"

"Ok!" Emma giggled jumping into bed beside Brooke

"We having a sleepover"

"Emma your such a chicken" Austin laughed quietly from the door. From his voice Brooke could tell that their party of 4 was getting ready to become 5.

"Then why are you here?" Emma giggled

"I heard talking… storms don't scare me"

"Good because I think the bed is going to collapse if anyone else gets in" Lucas laughed

"Right, night mom, dad"

"Come on Austin… there's room"

"Really?" Austin asked letting out a sigh of relief

"Yes… climb in"

"I'm squished" Maddie giggled

"Dad, tell us a story"

"Do I have too?" Lucas whined

"Yea! Tell us the one where mom got naked in your car and Whitey saw her!"

"I like the one where she took you to someone else's Jacuzzi" Austin laughed

"Nowa, Tell the story about me beings born and how I was so cute!" Maddie giggled cuccling next to Brooke

"And how Austin wanted to take you back?" Brooke asked

"I have a better one… It's about a girl named Tallulah"

"Cover your ears Lula… this might scar you for life" Emma giggled

"Do you want to hear the story or not?"

"Brooke doesn't! She votes no…" Brooke said covering her own ears. She hated this story with a passion.

"Well I had just moved to Charleston and"

"Lucas! No!"

"And so I had left your mom a letter"

It had been 3 weeks since school had started. Emma and Austin were both getting along well. Austin had a boy over every day after school to play or go out to the beach surfing with, while Emma spent most of her time with Brooke shopping for new clothes or thinking of new things to do with Maggie and Christine on their Saturday night sleepovers, and of course torturing Lucas with the fact that she liked a boy. She had of course had boys before; she was after all Brooke's child. The only one that ever stuck was Cooper and since she had known him since pre-school Lucas had hoped it would be more of a friendship like he and Haley had had. But they were in Tree Hill now where he knew from experience that all the boys Emma looked at only wanted sex and would say anything to get it. Brooke had tried to tell him that they were not even 13 yet and Lucas was freaking out for no reason and she was probably right. But he wasn't going to like any boy Emma or Madison liked. Ever…

"Daddy…" Emma smiled sitting down next to Lucas on the couch and laying her head on his shoulder

"How much is it?"

"Why do you always think I am asking you for Money when I call you daddy?"

"Because you are?" Lucas asked laughing

"Ok well I need like $50"

"Emma… what have your mother and I told you about drug money? If you going to do them then at least do the expensive ones"

"Dad…" Emma giggled

"Why $50?"

"Because I want to try out for Cheerleading and you have to donate money"

"Cheerleading… really? Damn I owe your mother $100" Lucas laughed remembering his bet with Brooke

"What? Guys like cheerleaders! You did… 2 of them, remember?"

"I knew telling you those stories was going to come back to haunt me"

"Please? Nathan said I'd make the team no matter what" Emma pleaded. She really wanted to do this, it was the only way she was going to get Tristan to really notice her

"Then why do I have to give money?"

"Because… daddy… I love you" Emma giggled hugging him

"Don't tell your brother or else he is going to want $50 too"

"Deal!"

"And Em?" Lucas asked as she walked out of the den

"Yea?"

"Tell Nathan I am going to kill him"

"Will do dad… Thank you!" Emma giggled running to her room. Not only was she blessed with the coolest mom anywhere; she also had a dad who rocked so much it wasn't even funny. Plus all of her friends thought he was hot and wanted to marry him. Of course that was kinda creepy for her but whatever floats their boat

"Cheerleading huh… Scary" Peyton laughed walking into the side door with Sally and Brittany

"Do you ever knock?"

"Nope… its Tree Hill, learn already"

"Hey Britt, Sally" Lucas smiled at the 2 little girls

"Ever notice how Haley spaced her kids out just well enough so they are all almost the same age as our kids?"

"Yea, Amber is playing with Austin and Madison is turning Nate into a girl"

"Nice… So that leaves her at home with just Hannah and Dana?"

"I heard that! Hannah, Dana… so find Amber and play with her" Haley yelled from the door

"Hey Hales"

"Luke… how's the shoulder?"

"Ok… I can hold Maddie again" Lucas answered. That had been the worst part about his energy, when Maddie would want him to hold her and he couldn't. Those sad eyes broke his heart.

"I would totally tear up my shoulder for this house… have I mentioned how much I hate you lately?" Haley asked sending the girls upstairs

"Yes, yesterday actually"

"I'm just saying you kids don't each need their own room and playroom. Where's Brooke?"

"On the beach… picking up 23 year olds" Lucas laughed

"Damn I hate her too! How the hell do you have 3 children and still have a 6 pack?"

"I didn't have them at the same time…Tutor wife, P. Sawyer… ready?" Brooke asked plopping down in Lucas's lap

"Brooke… if parents see me out with you… dressed like that… Maybe they will stop sending their kids to school and I can stay home! I am going to raid your closet…"

"Have fun… Luke we're going out… you ok here with all the kids?"

"Who are all the kids?" Lucas asked but he really didn't want to know

"Emma is looking through old pictures for her school project, Austin, Amber, Dana, and Hannah are on the beach with Nathan, Sally, Britt, Maddie and Nate will all play together in her playroom so you should be fine"

"Jakes coming over too… he wants to watch your TV" Peyton laughed

"Go, have fun… The games coming on" Lucas said kissing her bye

"Ok, I have my cell. Love you… Bye Maddie"

"Bye Mommy!" Maddie yelled from upstairs in her squeaky voice

"Tutor wife… come on!"

Once Jake was there in front of the TV Lucas walked down to the beach where Nathan was building Sand castles with the twins while Amber and Austin were "surfing". Everyone was taking advantage of the last warm days on summer, which meant never leaving Lucas and Brooke's beachfront house.

"Dude… tell me you didn't leave those kids alone, Haley will kill me" Nathan whined seeing Lucas

"Nope… Jake is there, of course he is in front of the TV so I don't know whether or not he is actually watching them but their not alone"

"Nice… Hannah, Dana I am going to go talk to Uncle Luke for a while… BE GOOD"

"We will daddy" The girls grinned evilly

"Twins are evil"

"So you told Emma she would make cheerleading?"

"Yea… Haley is doing tryouts so duh, why did you not want her too?" Nathan asked

"I guess I thought since he was into Tae Kwon Do that she maybe would like not do the whole cheerleading thing"

"Luke… how many times do we have to tell you? SHE IS BROOKE'S CLONE. Maddie, no she has a little of both in her but Emma… we have always known this dude."

"I know, and use to I loved the fact that she was like Brooke… but now she is getting older I don't want her to be like anyone I went to high school with" Lucas laughed

"And she wont be. You guys have implanted the sex rule in that kids head… she is a good kid Luke, a really good kid. Then again… so were you until you met Brooke"

"Dude… not cool"

"I'm kidding, look… I think she will be fine, and I know you do too. I think something else is bothering you"

"The coach called me today and asked me how my shoulder was" Lucas sighed

"What did you say?"

"The truth… it needs time"

"And?" Nathan asked knowing there was more to the story

"They want me to come back and help coach until it gets better"

"What did you say?"

"I said no, that I had the hiatus until next Christmas… plus it would mean us having to move back. Brooke and the kids are so happy here" Lucas said quietly

"Your not?"

"I am… I just kind of miss basketball"

"So it isn't the money right, because you could always just cell that monster house" Nathan laughed

"Dude… the way I set it up I could never go back and still live comfortably"

"I knew I should have gone pro, what did Brooke say when you told her?" Nathan asked

"I haven't… it will just worry her."

"She is going to be so pissed if she ever finds out"

"That's why she isn't… right?" Lucas asked. He hated lying to Brooke but somethings were better if he didn't tell her

"If you say so…"

Emma sat on the floor of her parent's room looking through all of the photo albums Brooke had kept over the years, starting with the one from high school before her parents had broken up. Every picture was the same. Brooke was doing some silly pose and Lucas was squinting with his closed smile looking down at Brooke. She was really dreading this project… a family tree and history. What a project that was going to be. The tree was no problem. There were enough pictures of everyone for that; the history was the part that she hated. The fact was everyone in Tree Hill already knew her family history… all of it.

"What are you doing?" Madison asked wondering into her parent's room probably looking for make-up

"Hey Lula… just looking at pictures of Mommy and Daddy"

"Do I looks like mommy?"

"You're a mix between mommy and daddy, see that was Mommy when she was just 4 years older than me, and that's me in her arms" Emma said pointing to the picture of her and Brooke in the hospital

"Cause Mommy had too much sex with daddy" Madison giggled

"Yea pretty much"

"Sex is bad" Madison said pointing her finger at Emma

"I know believe me. Can you believe Mommy was just 16 there?"

"She looks the same to me" Madison laughed obviously not understanding what Emma was talking about

"I guess so. She and daddy had to have been so scared"

"We were… Maddie, Nate is looking for you"

"Hey dad" Emma said making room for Lucas so sit down

"Need help?"

"Please… this project is crap"

"I agree…" Lucas laughed picking up a photo album

"So who was more afraid? You are mom?"

"Defiantly me I think… Mom, she looked at you like an adventure, something new and exciting"

"And you?" Emma asked

"I was terrified, I thought we were going to be lucky if you lived to see your 1st birthday with us as parents" Lucas laughed pointing out a picture of Emma's 1st birthday with cake all over her face

"Then why did you have Austin too?"

"Yea, Austin wasn't exactly planned either"

"Will you and mom ever learn?" Emma giggled shutting the album

"Dude, we're us… probably not. We thought with Austin it was going to be easier because we had already done everything with you… but Austin was a boy, so it was like starting all over"

"And Maddie?"

"We just knew with Maddie we weren't going to have any problems… but Maddie is defiantly unlike both you or Austin or any other 4 year old I have ever met" Lucas laughed thinking of silly little Madison, The comic relief of the household.

"True"

"And that's why Meme left… because you had us?"

"She loved you guys… she just couldn't understand why we loved you guys I think was the whole problem. Why I loved your mom" Lucas said quietly

"Do you ever wish you could call her and tell her how we are, and a about Madison? Or wish that you had made a different decision about keeping her away?"

"Sometimes… especially when Madison was so sick, then I see your mom and you guys, and I know what I did was right"

"I'm glad you were right dad because I can't imagine you without mom, or visa versa" Emma laughed pointing to a crazy wedding picture

Haley, Brooke and Peyton walked the long stretch of the mall by the carousel. The site of it still made Brooke feel sick to her stomach, just the thought of her Lucas with that Evil Nicki was enough to make anyone feel sick she thought"

"Stop looking at it!" Peyton said pulling Brooke's gaze away from the carousel.

"What? I'm not, ok I am but I'm still curious to this day about where they did it on it"

"I know! Every time I let Sally and Nate ride it I wonder whether or not they are sitting where they did it" Haley cringed

"Come on… lets just go in Giggles and Such. I have to get Britt some jeans, you can get Madison some"

"Madison in jeans? Madison won't even wear a bathing suit unless it has a skirt with it. Plus, Madison's a gap baby. She'll tell you too. The other day we were here and I took her into Old Navy and she goes… Mommy! I'm a Gap baby" Brooke laughed

"Yes, but soon she is going to be too big, then again your girls are so tiny Madison will probably still be wearing it when she is 10"

"Was that the same day Madison tried to tell that guy he was Santa Claus?" Haley laughed

"No, that was Tuesday… The other day she told this woman she needed to go on Atkins because her butt was huge… I was so proud"

"Madison… that Child has never met a Stranger has she?" Peyton asked

"Are you kidding me? Lucas thinks its because when she was in the hospital so much until last year everyone was a stranger so she just got use to it… I am just thankful its over now and she is healthy"

"Well you two do whatever you want… I'm going into Victoria Secrets!"

"Brooke! You were like just there a week ago!" Peyton sighed

"So, I've already worn all of those outfits… I hate wearing the same one twice!"

"Too much info"

"What, like you guys don't know Lucas and I have a lot of sex…" Brooke shot back

"You 2 need SA"

"SA?"

"Sex-a-holics anonymous" Haley giggled

"Ha, ha… I'm still going in"

After Amber and Austin had ridden every wave possible they got out and sat on the beach to rest. The sin was going down and Lucas and Nathan had already taken the twins inside to meet Jake.

"I don't like those guys you are hanging out with Austin…" Amber said for the 3rd time that day

"Do you even know them?"

"Yes and they are bad news! The got suspended last year"

"So? Everyone gets suspended at some point" Austin said quietly.

"Are they still coming over next weekend?"

"Yea, we're having a dare night and camping out"

"Just be careful…" Amber whispered

"I'm going to win too"

"Right, like you are going to do anything bad Austin Scott… son of Lucas Scott"

"Hey, my dad did bad stuff" Austin cut in. He hated it when people made him out to be an angel just because he was so much like Lucas.

"Yea, but only after he met your mom, don't get me wrong I love Brooke, its just you don't really have a "Brooke" to influence you"

"You're right, I have 3! Come over next Saturday, you'll see"

"Fine I will! And I bet you wont do anything bad" Amber giggled

"Your on!"

By 7:00 everyone had gotten bored and gone home leaving Lucas, Emma, Austin, and Madison to fend for themselves until Brooke got home, which usually meant water gun or flour fights.

"Daddy I want to play alone" Madison whined taking her flour bag to the corner

"You don't want to be on my team ladybug?"

"I'm a big girl"

"I know… ok you can go alone" Lucas said giving up.

"I'm home!"

"Mommy!" Madison squealed dropping her flour and funning into Brooke's arms

"Hey sweetie…how was your day?"

"I missed you!"

"Oh! Victoria Secrets…" Lucas smiled seeing the pink bad

"Don't look! It's a surprise!"

"Mom! We are getting ready to have a flour fight!"

"And mom guess what! I stood up on this really huge wave today! I wish you could have seen!" Austin said excitedly

"Wow… and I thought seeing the Nicki carousel was eventful. Did you find the pictures you needed Emmy?"

"Yea dad helped me" Emma smiled

"Daddy let me play in make-up!" Madison giggled

"Madison Tallulah Scott, you are terrible… I thought we weren't going to tell mommy" Lucas said tickling her and leaning over to kiss Brooke

"Oh yea… just kidding Mommy"

"Sure, Ok well what are we waiting for… flour fight time"

"Free for all? No teams?" Lucas asked

"Works for me…"

"Your going down Austin" Brooke giggled

"Mom, Are you still mad at me for getting your hair that time?"

"Yes…"

"I gone get daddy!" Madison squealed

"OK ready… Go!"

As usual by the middle of the flour fight Madison got bored and decided to do her own thing and go down to the game room to mess with Austin's pinball machine. As she walked by the side door, which was part open to let the cool night air in, a voice caught her attention.

"Hi, what's your name?"

"Madison Tallulah Scott" Maddie giggled stopping to look

"Hi there Madison… how old are you?"

"4… who are you?"

"I'm…" The lady started but stopped hearing a voice

"Madison, baby where are you?" Brooke yelled from down the hall

"Talkin to a lady"

"Bye now… I'll see you again soon"

"Ok"

"A lady…there's no lady… Maddie, you're a silly girl, come here and help Mommy"

"There is a lady"

"What does she look like?" Brooke asked humoring Madison and her little stories

"I don know"

"What's her name?

"She is my fwriend" Madison giggled

"Is she prettier than me?"

"Nowa"

"Good… lets kick daddy's ass" Brooke giggled kissing Madison on the forehead
