Good News, Bad News

Previously on-

Everybody was at the hospital waiting news on Haley and the baby's condition. Then Nathan came out and evrybody ran to him.

"Is Haley ok, man?" Lucas asked first.

"Um, the good news is that Haley will be fine, she just has to go on bed rest again for the rest of the pregnancy, the baby is ok, too." Nathan explained.

"That's good." Brooke said relieved.

"For now..." Nathan cut in again.

"What is that supposed to mean?" Peyton asked.

"The doctor can't tell why the baby is having so much trouble and he won't be able to tell until it's born, or even when it's a few years old." he explained further to them.

"What?" Brooke asked giving a look like 'this is bull shit'.

"I don't fully understand either, but until the baby's born we just have to stick it out and act cool about it for Haley." he told them seriously.

"Ok." they all said and walked away except for Lucas.

"Why don't you seem that upset?" he asked.

"Because I know the baby is still alive, I don't care if it will have minor problems, it'll be my kid and I'll love it anyways." Nathan said tearing up. Lucas was shocked though because Nathan Scott was crying.

"Hi Tutorwife." Brooke said cheerily as she came into Haley's bedroom. Haley was home now, it was the next day and Brooke decided to come sit with her and do stuff instead of going Boxing Day shopping.

"Hey Tigger, you can go shopping, I know you want to." Haley said laughing.

"No, if you can'tcome with me then I'm going to sit with you in here all day, besides, I feel bad that were both pregnant and you have to sit in your bed." Brooke explained laying next to her.

"Brooke, it's o-" Haley got cut of by Brooke.

"No, I'm staying and that's final!" she said making it very clear that she wasn't going anywhere.

"Alright, so what do you want to do." Haley asked.

"Plan our baby shower, silly!" Brooke said throughing her arms up in the air.

"Baby shower, were having one of them?" Haley said kind of confused and excited.

"Of course, your can't have a baby without a baby shower." she explained.

"Well, actu-" Brooke cut her off again.

"Ok, so here's what I was thinking..." Brooke said starting to explain the plan to her.

"Do you have to go?" Peyton whined as she held onto Jake on the couch.

"Peyton, my closest cousin is getting married, I have to go." Jake said stating the obvious. "I wish you could come with me, but my mom said since it's a wedding you can't just bring a guest because there are reserved seats."

"Ok, then I guess I can let you go." Peyton said loosening her grip on him.

"thank you." Jake said getting up. "Jenny! Come say good bye to your dad!"

"Bwye daddy!" Jenny yelled from her room.

"Hey, come give me a hug!" he said pretending to be sad.

"No!" Jenny said laughing.

"Looks like she's already starting to act like a teenager." Peyton said laughing.

"Pleeeeease!" Jake yelled.

"Fwine, I'm pwaying boubies you know!" Jenny said yelling at her dad with her hands on her hips.

"Oh, just give me a hug." Jake said as he picked up his kid. "You be good for Peyton until aunty Laura comes and gets you."

"I wiw, I pwomis." she said holding her dad's face in her hands and squishing his cheeks. Peyton just laughed.

"Good, give me a smooch now." Jake said talking funny because of the way she was holding him. mwah! She gave him a big smooch and ran away to go play again. "I love you, Jenny!"

"I wove you, too!" Jenny screamed from her room.

"And I wove you, too." Peyton said wrapping her arms around Jake's neck mocking Jenny.

"Ha, she's rubbed off on you hasn't she." Jake said.

"Yea, a little." Peyton said kissing him.

"I'll see you the day after tomorrow, love you Peyt." Jake said walking to the door.

"Ok, I love you too." Peyton said waving.

"So, did you and Brooke make plans today for the baby shower?" Nathan asked as he laid down beside Haley.

"Yea...you new about that?" Haley asked confused.

"Yes, that's why me and Luke went and played basketball for the most part of the day, Brookewanted us gone." Nathan said laughing.

"Oh I see, well I'm glad your home now." Haley said kissing him.

"Are you ok, Hales?" he asked breaking the kiss.

"Yea, fine." she said looking down.

"No your not, Haley, I can tell when there's something wrong with you." he said trying to find that something out.

"I'm just scared, Nathan." Haley said starting to cry and hugging him.

"Shhh, I know you are, but there's nothing to be scared of, you just have to be brave, we will get through this, no matter what happens." Nathan said rubbing her bad and comforting her.

"Thank you." she said stopping crying.

"Did you and Haley have fun today, well, as much fun as you can have sitting in a bedroom all day?" Lucas asked sarcastically.

"Hey! As a matter of fact we did have fun." Brooke said hitting him with a pillow.

"I'm surprised you didn't want to go shop because there was Boxing Day sales today." he said surprised.

"Well, I did but Haley needed somebody and were both pregnant so it's not fair if she has to sit there all day while I shop." Brooke explained proud of herself.

"Brooke, I'm pround of you." Lucas said after kissing her.

"Why?" she asked.

"Because you've changed into the person I've always known you could be." he said stroking her silky brown hair as she laid her head on his chest.

"And what's that person like?" she asked wanting to know 'who she became'.

"Caring, independent, thoughtful, not shop-crazy." he said laughing.

"That's sounds just like me." Brooke said happily smiling. "I know we say this like 5 times a day but, I love you Lucas Scott."

"I love you too, Brook Scott." Lucas said smiling and shutting off the light. Brooke smiled to that of course.
