After the game Lucas asked, "You want me to take you home?"
Brooke answered, "Actually I am getting a ride with Peyton I'm staying at her house tonight."
Lucas said, "Alright see you tomorrow babe." Lucas kissed her forehead then went on her way.
But Brooke didn't go to Peyton's house instead she went to the hospital. Brooke walked into Nathan's room Nathan was asleep, so Brooke sat in the empty seat near his bed. Brooke just sat there and watched him sleep; soon she also fell asleep. It was near morning Nathan woke up and saw Brooke laying her head on his hand. He was shocked to see her there. She began to stir she popped her head up to find Nathan awake Brooke spoke, "Hey."
Nathan said, "Hey."
Brooke asked, "How are you feeling?"
Nathan answered, "Pretty drugged up."
Brooke questioned, "How is the knee going to be?"
Nathan replied, "It'll be better in a couple weeks."
Brooke responded, "That's good to hear."
Nathan puzzled, "So what are you doing here Brooke?"
Brooke answered, "I was worried about you; the whole game you were on my mind."
Nathan questioned, "So I was on your mind when you leaped into Lucas' arms after he made the winning shot?" Brooke felt really uneasy now "I'm sorry that was rude of me." Brooke looked up at him with a surprised face she has never heard Nathan apologize for being rude. Maybe Peyton was right about him "So how long have you been here?"
Brooke replied, "Since after the game."
Nathan thought she does still care I mean otherwise she would've been hanging out with Lucas. Nathan said, "Thank you."
Brooke smiled and spoke, "You're welcome."
For the next week Brooke came to visit Nathan after school, but she didn't tell anyone what she was doing. Brooke didn't even tell Peyton about visiting Nathan; Brooke wasn't trying to hide anything, but they just wouldn't understand why she would want to.
Brooke decided to decorate Nathan's room, and she even brought him his laptop with wireless internet access. Nathan said, "Thanks Brooke."
Brooke responded, "I know how hard it must've been not to check your Myspace."
Nathan was hesitant about asking what he was going to ask, but he finally mustard up the courage to just ask her. Nathan asked, "So what does your boyfriend think about you spending all your time with your ex?"
Brooke was afraid that would come up eventually. Brooke went to answer, but was interrupted "So how you doing Scott?" There stood Coach in the doorway.
Nathan said, "Hey Coach."
Coach questioned, "So how much longer you in for?"
Nathan answered, "Supposed to find that out today."
Just then the doctor came in Coach Spoke, "Keep me informed Scott good day Miss Davis."
Brooke went to excuse herself, but Nathan stated, "Brooke please stays." Brooke smiled and sat down in the chair she was in.
Later that day Brooke had stopped by the café Haley said, "Hey Brooke."
Brooke asked, "Hey Haley can I get an ice tea?" Haley nodded yes and went to go make it.
Back at the hospital Nathan got another unexpected visitor Nathan spoke, "Hey."
"Hey the team and I chipped in to get you something." It was a toy basketball and hoop. "So you don't suck when you come back" Lucas replied.
Nathan responded, "Thanks that was a nice shot you made that night."
Lucas nodded and then questioned, "So how long until you are free?"
Nathan answered, "Doctor said tomorrow, so I guess I will miss the first playoff game, so You better not suck."
Nathan and Lucas both laughed. Lucas puzzled, "So how have you been? I mean no one has heard anything on you. Especially Tim surprisingly didn't have any updates."
Nathan thought 'Brooke didn't tell Lucas I believe that.' Nathan answered, "I have been alright the doctor wanted me to have lots of rest no visitors. So it was limited to family and coach." And Brooke Nathan said silently to him. "Speaking of that how did you get in here?"
Lucas smirked, "I told the lady at the front desk I was here to see my little brother."
Nathan remarked, "Well I am glad you stopped by."
Lucas said, "Yeah me too."
