Chapter 12: Love, Betrayal, and Heartbreak
A/N: I didn't know Jake's parents names, so I made them up. I am so sorry about not updating sooner. I have it all written out, but with school just starting, it's a little hard. The story is done. Chapter 12 and 13 will consist of the rest of the videotapes, which-if you're confused about, I'll do a quick review: Haley and Nathan, and Jake and Peyton are both having babies, and decided on each person (Nathan, Haley, Jake, Peyton, Brooke, Lucas, Clarissa, Michelle and Jenny) on making a little videotape, and on the 16th birthday(s) of the babies, they will watch the videos. Chapter 14 will consist of Brooke and Felix's wedding, and Chapter 15 is the epilogue. In my opinion, chapter 14 has a few twists that are not as noticable, but I will make note of them in the end, even though probably everyone will figure it out! I want to give a special thanks to all my reviewers, it's great!
My newest story Damaged, I have started. I am going to give a little preview now, so you know what to watch out for. Damaged, a song by TLC, is what it is named after. As you know, my stories are named after songs, or verses. (Accidentally in Love-Shrek 2 Soundtrack, Counting Crows, And If I Had To Do It All Again-Again, Faith Evans.)
When Haley turns to Nathan in a time of need, and a drunken night leads to a VERY unexpected surprise, what happens? Will fate work through? Or will Haley's cheating ex come back into the picture?
The rest of the story is short chapters, because they are pretty to the point. These basically describe each adult's feelings, of Jeyton, and Brucas.
Read and Review! I love you guys!
Jake walked into an empty room,
"Hey…future child and niece/nephew…I guess, well your Aunt Brooke wanted us to pick these papers out of a hat and we had to talk about that, love, and our history. I'm an only child to Robert and Elizabeth Jagielski and they were high school sweethearts. Yeah, not that interesting," Jake paused and laughed, "They got married at like 20 and had me at like 25. When I was 15, I met Nikki. I thought she was perfect. She was older, more experienced, more…everything then me. But a year later, when she got pregnant….I flipped. I mean here I was 16, and she was only 18 and a baby is on it's way. What's a guy to do? Jenny-I know you're watching right now. And you know what, she was the best thing that ever happened. I can't stand Nikki anymore, but I love Jenny with all my heart. Without Nikki, Jenny wouldn't be here."
"Then…Peyton happened. I mean-she started as a friend who babysat for me. She ended up being the love of my life. We had to describe love, and how I describe love is Peyton."
"And as for my choice of the little paper," Jake said taking the crumbled paper out, "Fun. Wow, I guess-I didn't really know until I got close to my friends. And, I guess, all in all, I have Nikki to thank for that. If Nikki didn't get pregnant, Luke wouldn't convince me to let Jenny out in the world. And Peyton, which lead to Luke and Haley and Nathan and Brooke wouldn't happen."
"I love you guys, Jagielski out," Jake said laughing.
In the hallway, Jake ran into Peyton sticking her hand to find the paper.
"What does it say?" Jake said wrapping his arms around Peyton's waist.
Peyton turned around and smirked at him, "That's a secret. You'll find out in…what 18 years?"
Jake smiled and walked away as Peyton walked into the room,
"Hey future Scott and Jagielski!" Peyton waved, "I'm Peyton Jagielski, daughter of Larry and Anna Sawyer, or rather Elizabeth Stanly. Yeah-I had it okay growing up, until my mom died," Peyton said pausing, "She died running a red light, and it hurt me more than anything else. Kay-fastfoward 7 or 8 years. I'm dating Nathan Scott," Peyton made a gagging noise, then giggled, "And best friend to Brooke Davis. And then everything got screwed up. I was totally hot for Luke, and Nathan and I were just basically not into each other anymore so we just broke up. So, Brooke and Lucas hook up, and I was still into him, And I screwed everything up. Since it's almost 20 years in the future, I'm not ashamed to admit it. I feel guilty for the fault in my best friend's relationship. Lucas cheated on Brooke with me. And if in 18 years-the two of them still aren't together-I put the blame on me."
"When Jake and I finally got together for good-it was like everything fell into place. It was at the same time as when Nathan and Haley were working thing out. Brooke and Lucas still wouldn't budge. And they still won't."
Peyton started getting upset, "I um…I can't do this anymore. So- I'm just going to..um, do this, thing…," she paused picking up her slip of paper, "Marriage," she smiled, "Something I wouldn't expect the old Peyton Sawyer to want. But it's something I'm happy I took a chance on. I love you guys,"
"Hey Tutor baby and Baby Jagielski. Auntie Brooke here! I told them to talk about the family, so I'm sure by now you know the story, so if I sat here and told you again, would you enjoy it? No! So, I'm going to talk about love and whatever this paper holds. Love is knowing someone in and out and trusting them with everything you have," Brooke paused, "And I don't have it with Felix. I had it with Lucas, but he betrayed me. And I hated him for it. When I found out I was pregnant, I didn't know what to think. Should- I try and make things work with him, be friends, or let him see the baby or lie. I planned on trying to be friends. And it worked. But-I mean, Lucas and I…I'm still in love with him. And I wish I could tell him, but I can't. I'm getting married. But love means to me is…Lucas and Clarissa."
And for the paper that the very beautiful and talented Brooke Davis made, she giggled, "Trust." "Something I can never have."
Brooke flicked off the camera, sighing walking down the stairs mumbling a next when she noticed Lucas get up.
Lucas picked up the paper, walked in the room, and turned in the camera.
"So, Brooke told us to talk about our past, love, and this guy," he said holding up the paper. "If you don't know the Scott past-you're an idiot. I'm sorry- I love you guys, but if you don't….you're just dumb. I was the love child of Karen and Dan, he left got another girl pregnant and there came Nate. We grew up hating each other, belonging to different groups. I was with Hales, and Nate was with Brooke and Peyt. Then-we all combined. Hales and Nate fell in love and I fell in love with Brooke. And Peyt. And Brooke again. Brooke got pregnant. And, the rest speaks for itself. Brooke won't give me another chance. Which is the one thing I want."
"Love is being perfectly content. When I look towards Nate and Haley, I smile. I feel happy. Then-I want love. And realize that…I won't fall in love. Because my one true love is Brooke."
Lucas shook his head, and picked up the paper and laughed bitterly. "Truth," he said. "The one thing I want the most. I love you guys."
Up next:
Michelle's, then Jenny's, then Clarissa's.
