Chapter Seven
Monday morning arrived and the inn was filled with busy Tree Hill students. Jake and Lucas were telling Lorelai and Sookie all instructions on how they talk care of Jenny and Cody. Lucas was still holding Cody.
"Come on Lucas you have to give Lorelai Cody," Brooke told him.
"I've never been away from him for that long," Lucas whined.
"You've changed so much man," Nathan joked, "You used to be worried only about basketball. Now look at you."
"Shut up," Lucas glared at his brother.
"I'll take good care of Cody. I promise," Lorelai promised.
Lucas reluctantly handed Cody over to Lorelai.
"Be good for Lorelai. I'll be back as soon as I can," Lucas told Cody softly.
Lucas kissed Cody on the forehead.
"You'll be okay Luke. I went through the same thing when I left Jenny for the first time," Jake admitted.
Everyone's head turned to face Jake.
"All parents face that," Lorelai offered.
"Come on Lucas," Brooke called out to him.
The gang was already at the door to the inn, while Lucas hadn't left Cody's side.
"Call me if he sneezes, coughs, cries, has a fever…"
"I get it Luke," Lorelai cut him off.
"My phone will be on vibrate. So you won't disturb the class," Lucas told her.
"Good to know."
Brooke came over and started to drag him to the door.
"Your pathetic you know that."
"But you love me anyway," Lucas grinned.
"Don't know why though," Brooke teased.
Twenty minutes and seven phone calls later the gang arrived at Chilton. They stopped at the main office.
"This is Professor Jenson. He's the head of the school," Rory introduced.
Introductions went all around the room.
"Ok. Rory can you take Brooke and Lucas around since they have all their classes with you?"
"Sure, but what about the others?" Rory asked.
"I'm going to have other students take them."
"Ok."
Brooke and Lucas followed Rory out into the hall. Brooke saw Lucas reach for his cell phone. She smacked his phone.
"What?" Lucas asked.
"You just called two minutes ago!" exclaimed Brooke in a hushed voice.
"Something could have changed."
Rory and Brooke exchanged glances and laughed at Lucas.
"Don't laugh. I have a right to be paranoid," Lucas scoffed.
This made them laugh even harder.
"What's our first class?" Lucas asked changing the topic.
"English," replied Rory.
"You should feel right at home Luke," Brooke commented.
When they entered the classroom Luke saw the professor and almost died of shock. It was one of his favorite authors, Jason Wilkes (A/N: not a real author. I made him up.) He went up to him and ended up having a five-minute conversation the works of his favorite book. But their conversation was cut short when the bell rang. He walked over and sat in the seat next to Brooke.
"Have fun talking to your idol?" Brooke whispered.
"Yeah."
Lucas felt his phone vibrate on his leg. He took the phone off the clip and what he saw made his heart leap into his throat. It was Lorelai. He flipped it open and placed it next to his ear.
"Hello?" Lucas whispered for he had no voice to speak.
"Lucas its Lorelai. Cody's come down with a high fever. What do you want me to do?" Lorelai explained.
The professor Jason started to come his way.
"What's his temp?" Lucas asked.
"102.3," replied Lorelai.
Lucas sighed internally.
"Get him to the nearest hospital. I'm on my way."
This received a confused and scared look from Brooke.
"Please hand me that cell phone right now Mr. Scott. That conversation isn't as important as what I'm going to teach you," Professor Jason stated.
"No your wrong. My son is much more important."
And with that he walked out followed by Brooke and (A/N: Gasp) Rory. The found Whitey in the gym and he raced them to the hospital. He ran up to the desk.
"I'm looking for Cody Scott. He's a baby. He was brought in by Lorelai Gilmore," Lucas explained.
"I'm sorry only family are aloud in to see him."
"I'm his father."
The nurse told him was to go. Brooke and Rory had to stay in the waiting room. Lucas ran off in the direction of his son. He found the doctor just leaving his son's room. Lucas looked at his nametag briefly. It said Dr. Mark.
"Is my son alright Doctor?"
A/N: You all probably think I'm evil for leaving you hanging like that don't you? Please Review.
