Same Mistake Twice

AN- Sorry that I have not updated in SO long. School has been really hectic, and I just go back home from evacuating for Hurricane Rita (our faux hurricane which barely happened), and I don't have school for the next 4 days, so I'm taking this time to do some major updating. Hope y'all like it.

Disclaimer- I don't own One Tree Hill.

"Brooke Davis." Brooke was broken out of her trance as she heard her name being called by the young nurse. She slowly got up and felt Lucas' arm around her shoulder. She leaned her head onto his shoulder. Karen was following the two of them, trying to give them a little bit of space. The nurse took them down a long hall and stopped at the second to last room. She opened the door and said, "The doctor should be in to see you in a moment."

Brooke and Lucas flopped down onto the examining table, while Karen opted for a small chair on the opposite wall. Brooke still had her head on Lucas' shoulder. It was her first doctor's appointment and she was a little anxious.

"It's gonna be okay, Cheery." She heard Luke whisper into her ear. She lifted her head and smiled in response.

About two minutes later, a raven-haired woman opened the door to the examining room, followed a nurse. "Hi. You must be Brooke." She put her hand out and Brooke shook it and smiled. "I'm Dr. Bennett."

"Hi." Brooke said shyly.

Dr. Bennett asked Brooke many questions, and Brooke answered all of them truthfully, except for one. The doctor asked if Lucas was the father, and Brooke quickly replied yes. She snuck a smile in his direction and he returned the gesture. By the time that the doctor started to prepare for the ultrasound, Karen decided to go wait in the waiting room.

The doctor applied cool gel to Brooke stomach, which caused her to giggle a little. She ran the transducer probe over Brooke's stomach and got a picture after a moment, which showed up on the CPU. Brooke and Lucas were both in awe of whatever they were looking at, neither really knew what it was exactly.

After a moment of "ohhing and ahhing", Brooke finally asked, "What is it exactly?" Dr. Bennett laughed.

"See that thing right there," she pointed to a round, pea-sized object. Brooke and Lucas nodded. "That's your baby. It looks to be very healthy."

"It is?" Brooke asked, on the verge of tears. Lucas held her hands and rubbed her arm, to comfort her. She turned to him. "Lucas, look, there's our baby." She looked into his eyes and saw tears welling up in them. She ran on hand across his jaw line and kissed his cheek. He nodded, moved a little closer to her and kissed her hand.

"Well, I'll give you two a moment, then I can come back in and print out some photos. How does that sound?" Dr. Bennett asked the happy couple. They both nodded in reply.

Once she left, Brooke looked at Lucas again and tugged at his hand, asking him to sit with her on the bed. He complied, and she leaned into him, putting her face into the crook of his neck. He felt her tears and looked down at her, she was crying, but smiling at the same time. "Lucas, look at it." He nodded.

"It's beautiful, Brooke." He said, as she rearranged herself to fit him.

"Luke, I don't know if I have told you this enough, but thank you so much for doing this. Honestly, I don't know what I would have done without you."

"Shh… Brooke, don't worry about it." Lucas replied quickly.

Brooke lifted her head, "Luke, this is a big deal. You basically gave up the rest of your life to help me. I have to worry about it."

"Brooke, I wanted to do this, I want to be this baby's father. I'm happy to be. You don't need to thank me anymore." At that moment, Brooke looked deeply into his intense blue eyes, while he gazed into her dazzling green ones. They got caught up and before they knew it, their lips connected. It was a small, sweet kiss, but it was perfect for the two of them. They needed each other more than either would have liked to admit. Right at that moment, Dr. Bennett came back into the room, which caused the two teenagers to break apart. Lucas felt bad, and started to move back towards the chair beside the bed, until he felt Brooke's hands pulling him back towards the bed, signaling that it was okay for him to be there.

The doctor printed out pictures for the two of them to take home and they checked out. Since they had come separately from Karen, they said goodbye to her and headed back to her house. Both Brooke and Lucas were happier than they had been in months.
