"Lucas…" Brooke was trying to snap her husband out of his trance-like state that he had been in for the past 2 minutes. "OK, I guess I'm driving my self to the hospital." Brooke said, waddling out of the nursery.

"What?" Lucas asked, finally awaking from his state of complete shock. "I'm sorry, I thought you said that your water just broke." Lucas kind of chuckled at the thought of that. Brooke had six weeks left before the baby was going to come. The baby couldn't possibly be coming now, could it?

"LUCAS!" Brooke screamed from their bedroom. Lucas ran towards her and found her sitting on the floor on her knees and putting her hands on her belly.

Brooke was crying, and Lucas almost lost it. Whenever he saw Brooke in pain, he was in pain. "Brooke, baby, are you ok?" Lucas asked, trying to help her up so she could sit on the bed.

"What the hell Lucas do you think I am? I'm having a baby for Christ's sake! It hurts like a bitch." Lucas gave his hand to Brooke to squeeze to show her that if she was going to feel pain, than so was he. He really hopped that this is the worst pain she has because she was already breaking his shooting hand.

"Babe, where's the bag of clothes we bought today?" Lucas asked, helping Brooke put her shoes and socks on.

Brooke was feeling better now, the contraction was over, but she still wasn't her usual cheery self. "They're in the back of the rover." She said, getting her pillow off the bed along with her teddy bear. "Lucas, can you get the bag of stuff from the closet? It has my hospital blanket and booties from when I was born and you're stuffed animal that Keith brought to you the first time he saw you."

Brooke was beginning to walk out of the room and down the stairs toward the kitchen. She remembered to bring a ton of bottled water with her, knowing that all the hospital would probably have within her reach would be tap water, eww. "Lucas, hurry baby, I need you!" Brooke said, sitting on a chair in the kitchen as she felt another contraction rip across her belly. I hope you're worth all of this pain kid!

"Here, I got everything, let's go." Lucas grabbed a set of keys and hopped into which ever car unlocked when he pressed the clicker. Boy was he glad that they had gotten 2 car seats, if he had had to go back into the house to change keys; he thought Brooke was seriously going to murder him.

Brooke reached back into the backseat of the car and pulled out the video camera from the front pocket of her hospital bag. She was so glad that paranoid Haley had made her pack it in the 5th month of her pregnancy, just incase. She knew that she wouldn't have remembered everything that she needed if she had to pack it then.

"Brooke, what are you doing?" Lucas asked as he watched her turn the camera towards her so she could tape herself.

"I'm going to make sure that our baby can see how much pain she caused me to bring her into this world, I'm going to hold this over her head forever."

Lucas laughed as Brooke turned the camera toward him. "Hey dad, how you doing?" Brooke was playing reporter until another contraction hit. "Sydni, you better be worth all of this pain." Brooke breathed through the relatively short contraction and as soon as it was over went back to filming Lucas.

"Well mommy," Lucas did one of his trademark Lucas smiles, "I'm doing great, considering that in about 2 minutes we'll be at the hospital where we can get you all doped up and Whitey won't kill me for letting you break my hand." Brooke rolled her eyes at Lucas's comment and went on filming.

"Yup, you know it broody! Look, here we are, this is where baby Sydni Scott is going to be born. Did you call everyone?" Brooke asked Lucas, turning off the camera and putting it in its bag.

Lucas pulled up to the valet parking and helped Brooke out of the car. He grabbed the bag of clothes and her hospital bag and decided that he could leave the car seat for later. "Yup, most of them wanted to wait until it was closer, but my mom decided that she was going to be there the whole time, I bet you she and Andy are all ready…" Lucas was interrupted by his mother running over to him, with Andy right behind her.

"We were waiting for you." Karen said as she motioned Andy to bring over a wheelchair for Brooke to sit in. "We went to registration, but you hadn't checked in yet." Karen was so excited; you would have thought that she was the first time father and not Lucas.

"Yeah, sorry about that mom, we were a little busy. We weren't exactly prepared for the baby to be coming so soon." Lucas walked up to the desk and opened his mouth when Brooke spoke for him.

"We're pre-registered. Let's just go." Brooke was starting to get another contraction, and Lucas could tell by the wincing look on her face.

"Come on cheery; let's go get you drugged up." Lucas laughed as he saw the look of relief on Brooke's face as she heard those words come out of his mouth.

Brooke came out of the bathroom in her hospital gown and got on the bed. Lucas was watching the game on TV. "Well," Brooke said, plopping down on the bed, taking a sip of water. "It's not an Armani, but this isn't the Four Seasons either." Lucas got up and kissed Brooke on the forehead.

Lucas saw THE LOOK on Brooke's face, and knew what was happening. "Breathe, Breathe, almost over."

Brooke closed her eyes and squeezed Lucas's hand. She opened her eyes and stared Lucas straight in the eyes. "Lucas, GIVE ME MY DRUGS!" Just as she screamed this, again, the anesthesiologist walked in to give Brooke her epidural.

"Ahh, I'm feeling much better now." Brooke said as she kissed Lucas's hand. "Sorry if I hurt you."

Lucas kissed her forehead and smiled at her. She was going through possibly the most painful experience that anyone could go through. In fact, Lucas knew that it had to painful, because men weren't capable of doing it. Lucas knew that if he had had to do that, he would have given up along time ago. "Brooke, you're so strong." Brooke blushed; she loved it when Lucas complemented her, especially when she looked like shit. "I mean, look at you, you're having a baby! Our baby! I just, I love you so much."

"I love you too." Brooke and Lucas were interrupted by the clearing of a very familiar throat.

"I hate to interrupt, but is all of the pain over with for now" Nathan stepped into the room and shook Lucas's hand. "Haley's a little scared of birth, and if she saw you in pain, I think that she would just kill herself before she went through that much pain."

Brooke laughed and pulled her blanket up over her stomach. "Haley, you can come in now, I promise it doesn't hurt." Brooke rolled her eyes and under her breath whispered "anymore."

"Hey Tigger. How's my little niece doing? I see that she's just like her mother, needing to make a dramatic entrance so that she could have all the attention." This made everyone in the room laugh, except Brooke.

"Hey I'm not THAT dramatic." Everyone laughed again as Brooke said this in all seriousness. "Ok, I guess I'm a little dramatic." Brooke rubbed her belly. It didn't hurt anymore, but she felt weird. She still couldn't fathom how a baby was supposed to come out of a person.

Haley plopped down on a reclining chair and covered up with her coat. "What's a matter tutor wife? Not enough excitement for you?" Brooke was watching the game on TV because she knew that it was the only thing that was going to keep Lucas going the whole time. From what she read, it could, and most probably would, take many hours. Good thing Brooke had brought her portable DVD player with the full first season of the OC and all 10 seasons of Friends to watch.

"Oh," Haley said, sitting up and going over toward Brooke's bed. "Isn't this the episode when Paris Hilton hits on Seth at that club in LA?" As much as you would think to the contrary, Haley was the BIGGEST fan of the OC, even bigger than Brooke.

"Wanna watch?" Brooke said as she patted the bed, making space for Haley.

"You know it." Haley said as she made herself comfortable.

A few hours had passed and Payton, Jake, Ashley, Andy, Keith, and Karen were all in the waiting room. Haley and Brooke had fallen asleep and so had Nathan and Lucas. The nurse had come in and attempted to wake them up, but Lucas and Nathan told her, in the kindest was possible, that if she wanted to live much longer, she would be better off letting them sleep.

Eventually, they did kick Haley and Nathan out, so they joined the others in the waiting room. None of them had even thought of bringing the subject that they all were thinking about. The baby was 6 weeks premature. She would probably be very tiny, and might even need to be on a respirator. No one wanted to think about that.

Ashley was extremely withdraw and hardly ever talked, which was very unlike her. She knew that she needed to be happy and supportive of Brooke and Lucas, especially if the baby was going to have to be in the NICU. She was trying, but she couldn't help but think of her baby. She subconsciously put her hand over her belly. She only had two months left, but she was still scared that her baby would end up sick, or even worse. She tried her hardest to think positively, but it was really hard, especially here. She got up to go to talk to Brooke. Brooke always made her feel safe and secure, she knew that Brooke probably wouldn't be able to talk right now, but just being there to help and support her, like Brooke had done for Ashley so many times before. Ashley walked towards Brooke's room and was almost there when she was practically knocked over by Lucas.

"Sorry Ash, but I got to find Brooke's nurse; she says the baby's coming."

"That's great Luke," Ashley decided that she could at least help Lucas, and boy did he look like he needed some help right now. His face was unshaven and he had large circles under his eyes. Brooke had been in labor for about 14 hours now, and he had been up for about 12 hours before that. Ashley didn't want to say anything, but he also needed a shower, badly.

"Yeah, now it seems real, you know?" Luke said, walking in front of Ashley.

"Yeah, but don't worry. You guys are going to be awesome parents, I'm certain of it."

"Thanks Ashley, that makes me feel better." Lucas embraced her in a hug and heard Brooke scream his name.

"Don't worry; I'll go tell the gang. Tell Brooke I love her. Ok?" Ashley gave Lucas one more hug and watched as he ran into Brooke's room. As she walked toward the waiting room, she couldn't help but think that she was going to be all alone in her delivery room, and it scared the shit out of her. Brooke was probably the strongest person that she knew. She had the guts to stand up to Felix, and she would say and do whatever she wanted. If Brooke was screaming for help, how was she supposed to do it alone?

"Lucas" Brooke cried, sweat dripping on her face. The epidural was beginning to wear off, and she was starting to feel a lot of pain.

Lucas ran into the room, followed by a few nurses and a doctor. "I'm here baby. Shhhh, I'm here." Lucas ran his fingers through her hair and ran his fingers up and down her arm. He knew that that would make her relax.

"Mrs. Scott," The doctor said while putting on rubber gloves and pulling a stool up to the foot of Brooke's bed. "You're 10 cm. dilated and ready to push."

"Do I have to?" Brooke was exhausted. She knew the answer to the question, but still hoped it would be the opposite of what she thought it would be.

"Yeah, if you want to see your baby, you do. Now, I want you to take a deep breath in and out." Brooke did what the doctor said and looked at Lucas with her puppy dog eyes.

"Squeeze away." He said as he gave her his hand and a kiss on her head.

"Good Brooke. Now, I want you to take another deep breath, and push as hard as you can for 10 seconds. OK?" Brooke nodded and began to push while the doctor counted to ten.

Lucas stood next to Brooke's head and continued to kiss her and whisper into her ear. "I love you baby, you can do this."

The doctor told Brooke to take a break while she got the Neo-Natal team ready for the birth. "Lucas, I'm scared." Brooke said as she watched the scene around her. "I feel like I'm on an episode of ER."

Lucas giggled and Brooke started to cry. "It's not funny!"

"I know baby, but only you would be able to turn the birth of our first baby into a reference from a TV show." Brooke looked at Lucas and he saw the fear in her eyes. "She'll be ok Brooke. She'll be ok."

"Promise?" Brooke asked as the doctor came back and told her to start pushing again.

"Good Brooke, ok, the head's almost out." Brooke let out a scream as Lucas told her that the baby had blonde hair. "Ok Brooke, one more push." Brooke closed her eyes and pushed as hard as she could.

"Baby, we did it, she's here!" Lucas kissed Brooke and watched her smile for the first time all day. "She's beautiful, just like her mother."

Brooke wasn't paying attention so she didn't know if Sydni had cried yet. All she saw was a little body with tubes and doctors hovering over her. Lucas went over Sydni and came back to Brooke crying.

Lucas never cries. Something's wrong with her, something's wrong with Sydni.
