A/N: Thanks for all the reviews!!!! I hope you guys like this one!
(A few minutes before the Nathan and Kayla talk)
"Brooke would please calm down?" Lucas asked, Brooke has been walking
back and forth for quite a few minutes.
"I can't! What am I gonna do if she dies? What if she doesn't make it? Huh? Tell me. I mean I named James after her. She was there for me when I had James. She's always been there for me. And now it's gonna be my fault if she dies. God, if I never talked her into coming with me to New York, we wouldn't be here," Brooke worried.
"Brooke it's not your fault. Just calm down! Sit down and breathe!" As Brooke walked to a seat, she saw Kayla walking to Nathan. 'What is she doing?' Brooke thought but didn't do anything and sat down, watching Kayla and Nathan.
A few minutes later, the doctor came out and everyone got up and ran to the doctor to hear the news. Nathan, too got there a few seconds later.
"How's Haley? Is she alright?" Nathan asked the doctor as soon as he there.
"She's fine. When she crashed, she lost a lot of blood. We did surgery on her and we almost lost her but everything's fine...for now. She's in coma. You guys could visit her in a few minutes. She's in room 230. But for now...we just wait," The doctor explained.
"What? Wait for what?" Nathan asked.
"Wait for her to decide if she wants to wake up or not." The doctor turned around and left.
As everyone walked to Haley's room, Peyton and Nathan stayed behind for a few minutes. Peyton and Nathan came in and Brooke told Peyton that she wanted to hold James. As soon as Brooke got to the room, she saw Haley. She began to cry silent tears and Lucas noticed. He walked over to Brooke, who was leaning on the wall and holding James, and hugged her.
"Shh. It's okay, Brooke. She's gonna be alright. Just calm down," Lucas tried to comfort Brooke while she looked at Haley over Lucas' shoulder and cried.
"But what if she doesn't wake up? What if something happens to her? What if she's not gonna be alright? How do you know that Lucas? How?" Brooke asked looking into Lucas' eyes with tears. Lucas didn't know how to answer this. Peyton walked over to Brooke and Lucas.
"Hey Lucas, I'll try to talk to her. Just take James," Peyton whispered in his ear. Lucas nodded and did as he was told.
"Hey Brooke," Peyton said once Lucas left.
Lucas went to sit down outside in the hallway on one of the chairs with James.
"Hey, little man," Lucas said to James. James looked at Lucas.
"Hi. Do I know you?" James asked. Lucas chuckled.
"Well, no. But you'll get to," Lucas said.
"And why is that?" James asked.
"Cus' I'm your dad. And you do want to know your dad right?" Lucas said.
"Yea. But all my friends have know their dad all their life. Why are you my dad and I've never seen you before?" James asked, confused.
"Um, I'll explain it to you when you're older."
"Why?"
"You won't understand."
"Why?"
"You're too young."
"So?"
"So you won't get it."
"Why?"
"You're too young."
"So?"
Lucas sighed. This was going to go on forever.
"Come on; let's go get something to eat." Lucas said. Lucas picked up James and started to walk to the food court.
"But you never answered my question," James said.
"And I don't need to."
"Fine with me. I'm hungry!" Lucas chuckled again.
"I bet you are."
"It'll be okay Brooke," Peyton said after they talked. Brooke smiled.
"I think I'm gonna go get something to eat. Get me if she wakes up," Brooke said, walking towards the door.
"I will," Peyton said. Brooke went to the food court and found Lucas with James, eating McDonalds'. She bought her own food and walked over to them.
"Hi guys," Brooke greeted.
"Hey," Lucas greeted back.
"Hey mom. You know this guy is crazy!" James said.
"Why is that?" Brooke asked while take a bite out of her food.
"He says he's my dad and he's telling me a lot of things that don't make sense," James said. Lucas and Brooke laughed.
