Chapter One
That Night
Lucas sat at the kitchen table waiting for Keith to come over. Baby Cody was asleep in Lucas's room. It was time to tell Keith about Cody. While he waited he reflected over what had happened that day. Brooke had gone with Lucas to the police department. He explained to the detective about how he found the baby and the note. There was a paternal test and it concluded he was the father. He was given full custody and the mother was stripped of her parental rights because she left him on the doorstep. They made a birth certificate for Lucas. They gave him the papers he needed to prove Nikki had no rights. When they left the station Lucas told Brooke he had to tell his Uncle now. Brooke had said she would come for support, but Lucas told her it was something he had to do on his own and he would be all right. Now he sat in the kitchen nervously awaiting the arrival of his Uncle.
"Lucas I'm home," Keith said coming in the front door.
"I'm in the kitchen," Lucas told him.
Keith appeared in the kitchen.
"I need to talk to you," Lucas told his Uncle.
"Oh this can't be good. Did you get another tattoo?" Keith asked.
"No."
"Thank god your mother would have my head," Keith said with a sigh of relief.
"But I do think your gonna want to sit down for this," Lucas told him motioning him to sit in the seat across from him.
"I don't like were this is going," Keith stated, but sat down anyway.
Lucas began to tell the story of today's events. Every time Keith tried to interrupt Lucas would ignore him and keep going.
"Holy shit your mother is going to have my head," Keith sighed, "Leave for Paris a mother come back a grandmother."
"Well it originally happed when Mom was home. Cody is five months old."
"Can I see him?" Keith asked suddenly.
This shocked Lucas very much but he nodded. Lucas got up and led Keith to his bedroom. Keith looked into the carrier that Cody was sleeping in. On the bed beside the carrier was a small amount of baby essentials.
"He's adorable."
"Yeah."
"You realize your going to need more than that."
Just then the door to Lucas's room opened and in came Brooke with at least ten bags.
"Whatcha got their Cheery?" Lucas asked.
"I went a little wild with the baby clothes and toys," Brooke admitted.
She set the bags on the floor and peered into Cody's carrier. Cody chose that moment to open his eyes revealing a pair of sparkling blue eyes.
"He's got your eyes Lucas," Keith said.
"Even before the test I just looked at those eyes and knew he was mine," Lucas admitted.
"Let's just hope he doesn't inherit your broodiness," Brooke teased.
Lucas playfully slapped Brooke on the arm.
"Cody your daddy is hurting me. He's going to be in trouble," Brooke told Cody.
"Can I hold him?" Keith asked.
"Sure."
Keith carefully lifted Cody out of his carrier. Cody smiled at Keith and began talking baby talk. They heard the front door open and wondered who it could be.
"Lucas we're home," Karen called out.
Lucas froze.
"Brooke can you watch Cody while Keith and I gently ease my mom into the situation."
"It's a little to late for that Lucas," Karen said from the doorway.
Lucas turned around.
"I can explain," Lucas promised.
"Explain please."
Lucas, Keith, and Karen left Brooke and Andy in Lucas's room.
"Well that was awkward," Andy said.
"Definitely was," Brooke agreed.
"So whose this baby boy?" Andy asked coming over to get a better look.
"This is Cody. He's Lucas's son," replied Brooke.
"He's got his eyes," Andy pointed out.
"Lucas's best feature," Brooke said out loud accidentally.
Andy looked at her.
"I have a boyfriend," Brooke stated.
"Didn't say a word."
Brooke knew what he was thinking even if he didn't say what he was thinking. He was thinking that she was still in love with Lucas. Which was really absurd. But yet it wasn't. She had always loved Lucas. From the time she stripped in the back of his car to the time he broke her heart to now. But was it the kind of love that would keep them in a relationship. It could. But did Lucas have those feelings for her. Even if he did she had a boyfriend. She couldn't do that to Felix. But she was in love with Lucas. And she knew she would jump at the opportunity to get back with him. But could she trust him not to cheat on her with someone else? Could she trust him not to leave her like Haley left Nathan? Of course she could. But she was stubborn. It was Brooke Davis's nature to be stubborn. And there was nothing she or anybody could do about it.
