"Wow, Peyton! You really know how to throw a baby shower!" Brooke exclaimed laughing.

"Oh, the party's barely started" Peyton laughed.

"But you're keeping it small like I asked, right? It's not good for me to be around a lot of people at once"

"Don't worry" Peyton said with a reassuring smile.

"So, when am I going to throw you a baby shower?" Brooke asked. She couldn't believe Peyton and Jake had been married for thirteen years and still hadn't had any children.

"Someone's here" Peyton said changing the subject and walking to the door.

"Haley! I haven't seen you in a month!" Brooke exclaimed as Haley bent down to give her a hug.

"Yeah, well, um, Ben and I have been busy and stuff" Haley lied.

"Yeah, I haven't seen Katie around here either. She's usually here with Jenny or Lily all the time" Peyton commented.

"Oh"

"Are you okay? You seem kind of different" Peyton asked.

"Yes, you have not been acting like your usual Tutor-girl self" Brooke agreed.

"Yeah, I have" Haley laughed nervously, "Anyway, is Bevin coming? Nathan said she and Tim were back from their vacation" Tim and Bevin had been married for three years and had two kids.

"Where did they go anyway?" Brooke asked.

"Hawaii"

"I've always wanted to go there" Haley added with a smile.

"Why can't you go?"

"Ben hates it. He hates places that are really muggy"

"So…..it's not like he has to go with you. Jake doesn't tag along on all of my vacations." Peyton said shrugging.

"He would feel left out. This is a baby shower, why are we talking about my husband anyway?"

"You're right. Present time!" Brooke shouted.

"No not yet. We have to eat" Peyton said motioning for everyone to go to the dining room.

Brooke, Peyton, Haley, Bevin, Katie, Lily, Jenny, Karen, and Bailey, who was on her mom's lap, all sat at the table and started talking and eating and asking Brooke how she felt. They heard the door open and footsteps walk into the dining room.

"Yes! I have always wanted to crash a baby shower!" Tim exclaimed as he went over to Bevin and kissed her.

"Sorry, honey, I tried to stop them" Jake said planting a kiss on Peyton's cheek

Jake was referring to Lucas, Nathan, David, Kevin, and Tim who all thought it would be the best idea in the world to crash a baby shower.

"Oh, I'm so sure you desperately did everything you could to stop them" Peyton joked rolling her eyes.

"How's my baby doing?" Lucas asked bending down next to Brooke.

"I'm great"

"I meant the thing growing inside of you' Lucas said smiling.

"I knew that and the baby is fine. It's kicking like crazy though"

"Oh, is it okay if I feel?" Haley asked.

"Go ahead" Brooke said. As Haley reached forward to touch her stomach, Brooke noticed a bruise on her wrist.

"What happened to your wrist?" Brooke asked.

"Oh, nothing" Haley said quickly covering it up.

"It doesn't look like nothing" Nathan commented walking over.

"I'm going to get some water" Haley said getting up, clearly uncomfortable. Nathan followed her.

"Can I ask you something?" Nathan asked, as he walked into the kitchen where Haley was getting a glass of water.

"What happened to David's back?"

"Huh?"

"Kevin said he saw a bunch of bruises and scratches on David's back. I'm just wondering what happened."

"Yeah, I'm sure you were 'just wondering'" Haley shot back sarcastically.

"Here's another thing I'm just wondering…." Nathan started to say but he was interrupted by Haley walking out and slamming the door.

"What happened?" Peyton asked.

"Nothing, come on Katie, we're leaving" Haley said to her daughter. "You too, David'

"Why?" Katie asked, confused.

"Look, Haley, don't leave. I guess I was just being nosy. It's not my business" Nathan apologized.

"Please, don't leave" Brooke added.

"Okay. I guess I might have overreacted" Haley said sitting back down.

"I do it all the time" Brooke said laughing.

"Who wants to go play basketball?" Lucas asked changing the subject.

Everyone gathered around the basketball court in Jake and Peyton's backyard. Brooke, Peyton and Haley were sitting on the grass watching the guys choose teams.

"How about the Scotts on one team and non-Scotts on the other team?" Lucas suggested.

"That would be Tim and Jake on one team and then me, Lucas, David, and Kevin on the other team" Nathan said.

"That's way too uneven and so unfair" Tim said.

"You could have one team of Nathan, Tim, and Kevin. Lucas, Jake, and David could be on the other team" Peyton suggested.

"Tim, the babysitter just called; Bella's really sick. We have to go take her to the doctor's" Bevin informed him worriedly. They thanked Peyton and left.

"Great, we're uneven again" Lucas said after Tim left.

"I can play" Katie said walking over to them.

"Are you sure?" Jake asked her.

"Of course she can play. She's a Scott" Nathan joked.

They played for about an hour. Katie, Nathan, and Kevin's team won, but only by two points. Katie scored about ten points. Everyone wanted to see how she would play against her dad so they played a one on one game and she won by four points.

"Oh my god, Nathan. You just got beat by your own daughter!" Lucas laughed.

"She only won by four points"

"Well, I can proudly say that Jenny has never beaten me" Jake bragged.

"Lily used to win against me…..but that was when she was younger and I let her win"

"Guess the Scott genes skipped her then"

"Actually, she hates basketball" Lucas said.

"Maybe it's time you had a talk with Peyton about her real dad" Nathan joked.

"What the hell does that mean?"

"It was a joke" Nathan said defensively.

"Really, because it sounded to me like you were calling my wife and the mother of Lucas's child a slut" Jake said.

"I was joking! Can't you two take a joke!"

"It wasn't funny'

"I'm sorry if I offended you, I'm just not in a good mood today. I have to go" Nathan said before getting into his car and leaving.

"Okay, something is definitely up with that guy" Jake concluded as Nathan drove off.

"Hey Brooke, Jake and I redecorated our room. Do you want to see?" Peyton asked a few hours after the party had ended. Haley had just left a while ago.

"Sure!" The two friends walked into Peyton's room. Brooke sat on the bed.

"Wow, it looks great. Definitely better than it used to look" Brooke joked.

"Very funny"

"Peyton! Is this a pregnancy test under the covers? Oh my god, congratulations!" Brooke exclaimed.

"Look at it Brooke. It's negative; all thirty-five of them are. I'm not pregnant and I never will be"

"I looked at it. It's positive. Peyton, you're pregnant"

"That's the one I took this morning. It's impossible! Jake and I have been trying for about five years and we haven't gotten pregnant yet. It has to be wrong!"

"Why didn't you tell me you were trying to have a baby?"

"The first negative one was right after the stillborn. I didn't want to make you more upset. Then, I guess it just got easier and easier to not tell you about it. I just didn't want to cause you to lose any more hope. I remember you and Lucas being devastated after your first miscarriage-all of them. And, I remember you telling me that even if you might not have another baby after bailey it was okay because you could be a mommy to my kids. I don't know if that's a good enough excuse but I really am sorry"

"It's okay, I understand. You should tell Jake, though. Answer this though. How could you have not noticed it was positive?"

"I guess I got so used to them being negative I barely look anymore"

"Well, you need to set up a doctor's appointment soon to make sure"

"Brooke! It's time to go!" Lucas called from downstairs.

A/N: Okay, I hoped you liked that chapter. I won't be able to update for about a month because I am going to sleep away camp for about five weeks. REVIEW!
