Nathan stormed into the hospital, and seeing Brooke and Lucas waiting there, he ran to them.

"Where is she?" he asked.

"They're checking her out," Brooke said. Nathan wouldn't look at Lucas, and Lucas noticed that. Brooke got up silently, letting the brothers talk.

"Man, I never slept with her! You gotta believe me!" Lucas begged.

"I do." Nathan said looking towards his brother.

Lucas looked towards his little brother with a look of confusion on his face.

"Hope was lying. They proved it," Nathan said towards his brother.

"Man, that's great!" Lucas said clapping his brother on the back.

"What's so great? Look around, Luke—we're in a hospital," Nathan said.


"It's been 2 frigging hours!" Nathan exclaimed to Luke, Brooke, and Peyton. Jake was watching all of the kids.

"What's wrong with my wife?" Nathan exclaimed, causing random people, doctors and nurses to look at him. "What?" he asked to the looks.

All of a sudden a doctor approached the group.

"Mr. Scott?"

"Yes," Nathan said walking over to him.

"Haley passed out do to stress. Considering she's pregnant, obviously stress isn't good. Due to the amount of blood loss, Haley passed out to a heavy state. We managed to stop the bleeding, and she's under a lot of medicine right now. She fell into a coma. I'm sorry," the doctor said.

"And the baby?" Nathan asked choking back tears.

"So far, she's fine, the next 24-48 hours are crucial for both your wife and your daughter. We're monitoring them both right now," the doctor finished.

"Daughter?" Nathan asked.

"Yes, in the sonogram, we saw that the baby is a girl," the doctor said, "We'll keep you updated."

As the doctor walked away, Nathan punched the wall, then broke down into his brother's arms.

"Tell me this is a nightmare!" he screamed, "Tell me this is a fucking nightmare! My wife and daughter can die! They can die!" And then realization hit him, "I never told Haley I loved her. I always do before I leave, and I didn't. She thinks I hate her. I never….I never got to tell her I love her," Nathan said sobbing.


A few hours later, Taylor James walked into the hospital.

"Isn't this homey?" she said.

Nathan was sitting in a chair as far away from Lucas, Brooke and Peyton with his head in his hands. Lucas was sitting equally away from Brooke and Peyton and Lucas staring into space. Brooke and Peyton were sitting next to each other trying to be strong and keep calm.

"Taylor," Nathan said looking up. Taylor walked over to Nathan and gave him a hug.

"What are they saying?" she asked.

Nathan nodded his head no as another doctor walked in.

"Mr. Scott?"

Nathan whipped around, "Yeah?"

"So far so good. Baby and Haley are both doing fine, for now. You may see her," the doctor said.

"Is she awake?" Taylor asked.

"No. I'm sorry," the doctor replied walking away.

"Go in, Nathan," Taylor told her brother-in-law.

"I can't. She probably hates me," Nathan confessed.

"Nate," Taylor said, "I was there when she left to be on tour. She was depressed, and you know what- you were, too. You two can get through anything. Go."

Nathan looked up towards Peyton, and she read his eyes in a second, "You know what?" Peyton asked, "If you guys don't mind-I'm gonna go in."


"Hey, Hales," Peyton said walking into the room. "God, everything's so screwed up right now. You need to wake up."

"Can I interrupt?" Brooke asked.

"Go ahead. I'm not good with these things," Peyton confessed.

Brooke watched Peyton leave the room, then she sat down next to Haley.

"Everything's pretty crappy right now, huh, tutorgirl?" Brooke said, "I'm really sorry, Hales, for, you know-walking into that room, yelling at Lucas in front of you. About you two sleeping together. I know the two of you would never do that, and I know that no matter how badly Nate hurt you-you wouldn't do that to him. Um, I've known Nathan for a long time, now. And he did date my best friend. But he was never happier unless he was with you. So, please…wake up and come back to him. Um, so Luke told me he was still in love with me," she paused, "I'm sure you knew that. I don't know what to do, Haley. I mean, of course I'm still in love with him, but I'm engaged to Felix. Lucas's is my daughter's father, so we'll always find a connection…I just-you need to wake up and give me some of your smart advise, so I can know what to do," she pauses and thinks for a second, "You know what-I do know what I'm gonna do."


"Luke?" Brooke said quietly.

"Yeah," Lucas said looking up from his conversation with Taylor.

"Can I talk to you?"

"Yeah," Lucas said getting up.


"Hey Haley," Nathan said walking into the room. "I can't believe I accused you of sleeping with Luke. I know you wouldn't do that….I just wish you knew I wouldn't. Hope's baby's not mine. I knew it wasn't. Hales, we've been through a lot of tough times, one more won't ruin us. Come on Hales…wake up. I need you so much. I love you. We can get through this."


"What's up Brooke?" Lucas asked.

"This is about that conversation we had a few days ago," Brooke said.

"Ah," Lucas said.

"Of course I'm still in love with you, Luke," she said, causing Lucas to look up at her, "But we can never happen again. We've been through so much, and we're lucky enough to even be friends at this point. Lucas, you cheated on me with my best friend, and I don't hold that grudge against you anymore. But we have another person to think about, now. Clarissa means the world to both of us Luke, and if we don't work out. It would kill her."

"Just like you marrying Felix," Lucas spat.

"Lucas," Brooke started.

"You love him?" he asked, and when he didn't receive an answer he said, "That's why we should take the chance."


Nathan was sitting in Haley's hotel room when he heard the only thing he's been dying to hear for days,

"Nathan?"


"She's up! She's up!" Nathan screamed while running out, to find a very uncomfortable Taylor, a bored looking Peyton, and a Brooke and Lucas in dept of a deep conversation.


"So, Haley- it looks like you'll be just fine. You need to be on bed rest, though. For the rest of the pregnancy. Your daughter seems like she'll be just fine. You're very lucky Haley…keep the stress down, now, okay?" the doctor said.

Haley nodded her head, giving the doctor a small smile, "Thank you."
